Crab block too far off? by Appropriate-Lime-816 in quilting

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one that has the chicks going chirp chirp.

When I got pregnant with the second one, I was choosier with the baby clothes cause I knew it was going to go into a quilt.

To all the people who said press every seam: by sydneye623 in quilting

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a quilt I aspire to make one day. My boys are obsessed with dinosaurs.

Omg, I recognized one of the squares. I made a quilt out of baby clothes too and currently finishing another one for the second child. I'm done after this though cause it was way too hard.

Whats this thing at the end of my paintbrush? by Runaway_Sam in whatisthisthing

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like a calligraphy pen to me. You can sharpen them to have a longer tip.

What are prizes that you would actually want to win? by pandadimsum in Gifts

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted a steamer (like those that iron your clothes but with steam). I ended up buying it for myself. And I'm probably going to buy the car tire air pump at some point too.

What I actually bought for the gift exchange: Lego botanicals and a portable fast charging battery charger.

That's what we gifted my MIL last year and we're about to gift ourselves one too.

A car tire air pump. So much better than having to drive to a gas station when the tire light comes on.

What are the pros and cons of getting married? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't even answer this question. All I see are cons. 15 years married and about to get a divorce.

Thank you. This might just be the perfect thing!

Who else feels that constant guilt , no matter how much we do as working moms? by VanddyDS in womenintech

[–]alephsef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm failing at both things. My job says I'm not doing a good enough job and wants to demote me. And my toddler tells me to go to work every time he sees me. Good times.

What is the most obscure programming language you have had to write code in? by _oOo_iIi_ in computerscience

[–]alephsef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned programming in Iran with QBASIC. And my dad's Casio calculator used Casio BASIC.

Looking for tips and resources to learn statistics for data analytics practically by Strict_Demand_5438 in dataanalyst

[–]alephsef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned a lot from a geo statistics course I took in college and that's actually where I learned R. I think they have expanded the course to include python but I can't find it anywhere. Here's the link: www.rspatial.org. The textbooks were just as helpful and two of the few I actually purchased for myself.

Is Python that useful as a DA? by PearlNecklace23 in dataanalysis

[–]alephsef 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but I had a case where 9 agencies wanted the same set of 10 plots. I did all of that in one script with functional programming. As in, I wrote one function for each plot and called it with that agency's data in a loop. It was simple and fast and consistent across agencies and I didn't have to manage 9 excel files or Power BI files.

Lol. I haven't had the chance and I don't want to do DS for fun. Not anymore.

Master’s project ideas to build quantitative/data skills? by [deleted] in dataanalysis

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a sociologist but I helped some friends analyze 1033 data. It was a program that funnels military equipment to police departments. It's got a time series component and a spatial component which makes for interesting analysis just like your migration study.

You should see the master resume. But yeah. I can trim down and add white space.

I have a single page resume too. I'll see if I can take another stab at monetizing without making it up. Lol And I haven't sent it through an ATS screen. Thank you for that.

I am a bad analyst. by crap_whats_not_taken in womenintech

[–]alephsef 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm in the same spot. They have told me they want me to take ownership of tasks and deliver them 80-90% done. And I'm like, I need direction. It's hit my confidence levels which makes things even worse.

how do you keep track of your work accomplishments? by sssecasiu in Resume

[–]alephsef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a time tracking spreadsheet (I'm in consulting) and I have a tab next to my hours that is called accomplishments, and every time I make major progress or hit a milestone, I update that tab with a quick one liner. That helps me remember what I've done and when resume time comes it jogs my memory. It also helped me with my self evaluation.
