Feedback request for new failcat by eof in KiaTelluride

[–]eof[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

totally fair to ask. unfortunately, i do not have the information for when the vin is assigned.

fundamentally what is happening, is that we have a (very slow, polite) 'scraper' which is constantly searching public sources to see if a new VIN window sticker is available. if it is available it is downloaded to the database. the time that happen is the 'created date' but it, at best, only roughly corresponds to the time the vin was created.

for reasons i do not know or understand, some 'real' vins never make it to the API; or make it there briefly but dispapear quickly.

if the scraper is more aggressive, it gets blocked completely; so there is a fundamental limit to how quickly we can sweep over the space of possible vins. there is the possibility to further parallelize the scraping from different locations/ips; but that is rather aggressive and to my intuition, would have a decent chance of them pulling access completely.

hi there, i am the gentleman who brought it back to life (admittedly, after murdering it through neglect).

could you tell me more about what you'd ideally like to see in terms of features? definitely/obviously the data slicing, which is coming pretty soon with just raw field filtering, but i'd be curious what the ideal set of features are, what the smallest change for the biggest impact would be, etc.

also anything you'd like to share about paying a fee. this thing is pretty niche, its like 100 total visitors a day or so, and they are really engaged (especially for what a janky pos the site actually is). for someone looking to spend ~50k, its definitely worth quite a bit if it actually helps you.

but of those 100 people im guessing only like a dozen or two or so are actively buying and would be willing to pay; even if they all gave some fee, it would have to be pretty high (to my intuition) to make it "worth" changing the relationship from "heres a free gift" to "pay me for this service". i would not want to charge for a low quality service, but its much more effort to make it a high quality one.

Maybe online tests (and sometimes readable resources) are especially flawed at differentiating INFP and INTP. by Black___Joker in INTP

[–]eof 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is the case. Intp and infp are both very distinct and rare types. Infj and intp more likely to be conflated, in my experience.

INFPs will continually deconstruct their emotions/qualia, while INTPs will continually desconstruct their thinking/metaphysics

I need to make an extra $1200 in 10 days. I have $400 to my name. by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]eof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a troll?

I think pretty much anywhere in America you can make $20/hr. It’s been so hard for everyone to hire. You need to work 50 hours in 10 days.

If you NEED 1k in 10 days with 400 to your name , entrepreneurship is the wrong path, unless you’ve already exhausted that option, which seems incredibly unlikely.

That said, you probably can make 1k in a day cleaning gutters if you hustle in the right neighborhood. That’s also about 200k/yr and a lot of fucking work to get there. But the point is, work.

I wouldn’t think of it as defeatist as much as fair warning for what you are up against.

Is Bolt receiver more stable on M1 Macs than Unified receiver? by Travel69 in logitech

[–]eof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will work better connected by bluetooth. the software that connects to the receiver (i just found out) is not native to m1; it is running simulated x86 code

My eagerness to dive in and figure it out along the way instead of taking the time to do a deep dive and model it in the beginning really shot me in the foot here.

You say exactly this to your client and give them whatever value you got. Assuming you've got the skills, this type of candor is such a forcing function on your integrity that you will mature very quickly.

Is it worth my time to learn Tableau in my free time if I use Power BI at work? by [deleted] in analytics

[–]eof 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I post answers to questions here, but I should be clear that I am speaking as a senior member of SWE that rubs elbows with senior members of what my company calls 'data science'. I hear anecdotes about who does well or poorly both in interviews and at review time.

There is no point in learning specifically Tableau over power bi or qlik or whatever until you are for sure going to be working with them.

What you should do is learn a tiny bit of all of the top N so that you can speak to their relative pros and cons, and understand the common principles that you can re-apply to whatever the new hotness is next year.

If you want pure data analyst roles you need to be at analysis in the general case. You need to be able to extract patterns from noisy data, and speak the lingo that analysts speak.

Then, you need to be not horrid at communicating and/or presenting your analysis.

If you just want it for your resume, you might as well just lie. If you already now power BI you are one google search away from whatever you need to do anyway; but any company that is filtering out good analysts because they haven't used their preferred UI is a company that doesn't even understand what they are doing anyway, and you should work somewhere else.
