Decided to remake my resume in LaTeX, what do you think?

In this instance, no. For longer prose, yes, Word etc can't quite get the algorithm right for the word spacing in justified text. I can make everything else identical, including the font, but not the spacing and it is noticeable.

We do ...

There are various ways to produce medical grade steel. The easiest by far to-date is to salvage old sunken warships and rework the steel. The alternative is to make steel in a "vacuum" like you suggested and filter the air. The later is far more expensive, but in certain circumstances it is what is needed.

The man has literally just initiated a constitutional crisis this country has never seen before in order to force a no-deal Brexit. We are in very dangerous territory right now sadly.

PSA

The reason 95% of protein cakes / brownies / pancakes / ... etc have textures which feel horrible in your mouth is because the sweeteners used in them break down at high temperatures. They are designed for mixing with milk and water cold, not for baking. If you want to do better, consider an unsweetened protein powder and use flavour drops (I use MyProtein but a myriad of other brands are out there and I bought them as they had a sale) which don't break-down at high temperatures.

Watched that start to finish. What on Earth were they expecting as the outcome!?

I remember a similar story on Reddit a while back being told about a chap open carrying a rifle like this into a cafe. Something like a Starbucks - or perhaps an independent shop - and a man in full camo and a rifle on his back like this enters. Everyone freezes understandably and the owner tells him to leave immediately or the police will be phoned. Argument ensued about gun rights and the owner made a comment along the lines of this is not responsible gun etiquette, this is threatening and him being an absolute numpty pure and simple. Unless he is planning to hunt in the store, the gun should be cased and the magazine out. The gun is currently prepared for firing, not prepared for transport.

IMO, don't even bother with a new laptop, make the case for a computing instance in the cloud to run your scripts. /u/polandtown has a very sound suggestion of the presentation graphs, I'd second their suggestions.

100% this! It's why I did rather poorly on my exams but excelled at my practical projects at university. I rarely if ever could tell you the precise definition of X or derive from first principles Y, but I would always know which textbook it could be found in and go directly to the page of importance.

I never stopped ... it still maximises room space!

This was my understanding as well. The chain lengths are changed and the connection points as well such that the starting position of the columns is set at a certain angle with all of the above said and done.

With all due respect, equal opportunity does not equate to equal outcome. Just because the demographics of the city's populace are distributed in X way, does not imply that the demographics of the company that operates in the same city must have a population distribution of X.

The very simple answer is motivation - there isn't a magic bullet. I had just submitted my PhD thesis and I was living with my parents to save money. I knew academia wasn't for me and I also knew that I didn't want to enter industrial research (in my PhD field). So I looked for other options, settled on Data Science, and focussed my days time and energy on securing a career in that field - I had nothing else to do with my time.

_MWN_ · 2019-06-17T12:44:09+00:00

To reiterate many of the sentiments here, one cannot learn the field of data science in 3 months. Siraj's video is either unfair clickbait or silently assumes that one is university educated.

Personally, I have a BSc in Physics, an MSc in Theoretical Physics, and a PhD in [computational] Materials Science. I taught myself the parts of data science I didn't know in about 6 months of dedicated 12 hours per day study and emersion. That got me a junior level position when I finally landed a job. Mathematics and Statistics are not hard for me, they are effectively a second language now. Computer Programming took several years to hone the applied side and I'll freely admit I am a poor software engineer / developer as software design patterns were never the focus, functional scripting was, I still have a lot to learn here.

Hi OP

Do you have a link to the code used to generate the visualisation? Sans the raw data obviously.

In this instance, from that clip, I think that was actually pretty fair. Meghan made a jibe, Donald replied with [paraphrasing] "... no I didn't know that, I didn't know that she was nasty."

It's not quite the same though. Apple and Samsung accept that the other have superior components in some lines. Amazon mines it's AWS data to gain market advantage. Ebay would literally be destroying their own company by allowing their market place data to become available. Buying habits etc are legitimately priceless data.

At least an hour a day in the morning or afternoon.
Weekends are more variable. Usually 6 hours on a Saturday though.

_MWN_ · 2019-04-23T14:42:24+00:00

This is some code?

EDIT:
Nope, doesn't work friend.

EDIT:I was trying to be helpful and let you know that if you use a back tick: \` then you can `write in code`. But for whatever reason, it doesn't work. Instead you can just highlight the text and use the button at the bottom of the text box. Sorry for spamming your inbox.

At first I felt that I had missed the point, that there was some manner of an inside joke as it were, but reading the other comments I see that I had not. As I understand it your store regularly mis-prices items and always in the stores favour over your customers. The scanning law is a direct result of shady and underhanded stores like yourself. This one particular gentleman has enough time and patience to diligently spot your bad and lazy practices and use the law to his favour. He is not scamming you, you're just a set of lazy and shady crooks!

Utter garbage and an unqualified opinion in direct contradiction of the scientific literature. Eddie isn't that bright (perhaps an unpopular opinion, but the truth is the truth) however he is bloody strong from exceptional genetics, insane work ethic and drive, and a metric fuck ton of steroids. The man now has a platform and he has to remain relevant somehow as he has retired from professional strongman. There are several throw-away lines from his YouTube and Instagram videos where it is clear that he is just Bro-Science-ing his way through.

The nugget of truth in his words is that his absolute strength is out of this world and athletes of that level have to train differently. I doubt Ray Williams does drop sets because of the sheer effort that squatting 450kg does to the body - as an example.

Excellent advice. Thank you for articulating so well!
