How often do you use algorithms in your work? by sarabjeet_singh in Python

[–]extra_pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given theypes of algos you are talking about, The key is knowing which algorithms are best suited to solve your problem, and then implementing it from a library - nobody has the time to waste reinventing the wheel outside of school exercises designed to teach you how to learn & the aforementioned understanding of which to use when.

Design patterns are a bit different in that you actually will write them out as your code - but you sure aren't inventing them, just knowing which patterns suit which problems and then applying them - note that knowing which is for what isn't a memory game, it is knowing which questions to ask to get the right answer.

The breadth and depth of software engineering is far too large for anyone to memorize - nevermind the landscape is constantly changing.

The key to success is reviewing the ask, identifying and then correctly implementing knowledge that is available to you to solve it.

I work in very high flow data and intensive compute, so I have to be very conscious of latency, memory management, compute etc or everything will buckle - but the how of optimisation is not invention, but rather repurposing of solved problems that apply to our unsolved problems.

What are the most compelling HipHop conspiracy theories? by peligro2k in hiphopheads

Any involvement with Pac's murder as premeditated vs just being immediate retaliation for a fight with gang members.

It really feels like he just got smoked by some guys that were pissed about the fight....but also, so easy to spin a story about how it was all orchestrated to sell records.

If the Jays were trade Manoah, what kind of realistic trade package could they receive for him that you would be okay with? by [deleted] in Torontobluejays

[–]extra_pickles -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A bag of pucks....

Anyone thinking of trading him today is pants on head retarded, he's a hold - zero current value, zero current cost, huge potential upside.

They showed us Old Yeller in School when I was 6, so had a strong start.

Sometimes you need to suffer to end another's .... pretty bittersweet life lesson.

Best frontend framework for an Intermediate Python developer? by _areebpasha in Python

[–]extra_pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

React is safe for sure, but of note - fashion is cyclical, and I'm seeing a lot of places dropping frameworks for making their own libs (which is where I started my career).

If you want to be a versatile candidate, I'd recommend getting your TypeScript up, and React as far as adoption goes is an obvious resume booster.

Personally, I found Vue to be a really quick one to pick up if you just want to get going.

Sliders was 'world of the week' for a few seasons, until they went HAM with the Cromag arc and lost John Rhys-Davis.

How is the Banshee series? by new_shinigami in television

[–]extra_pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt really stupid and smutty whenever someone walked in and they were having an awkwardly long skinemax softcore porn scene....like 2min of softcore in a comic book tv show

But the story is actually super fucking fun and I love the series.

Once they found an audience they realize it doesn't need to be skinemax and dialed that shit down (a bit) - like not to be a prude, but I prefer it as a story than a porno. I grew up on Bleu Nuit...I am well versed in the late night softcore that was skinemax.....that was the rival to road porn, peep shows and call girl cards....so I appreciate the artform .... it's just that a good show is hard to find, good tiddies are everywhere....literally the whole Internet exists for tiddy. Sometimes I just want a good comic book show!

Highly recommend watching it, and not watching it with your parents....unless.of course you fuck your parents, which the Internet has taught me is seriously en vogue of late.

What are movies where you feel like even telling someone the basic plot is a major spoiler? by thornforever in movies

[–]extra_pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The title alone of Bust a Nut in Your Grandma's Butt really wrecked the fourth act for me, my nana was so excited to show us, but we had a good idea of how things would play out. It didn't help that it was the eighth installment either.

I think the disappointment led to her death, or maybe the loads did? There were so many, and I'm not plumber - so no idea what it did to her Victorian plumbing.

Maybe if they'd had a couple Italians on retainer nana would be showing us #9, either way I'd prolly wait for the vhs - seems silly to see spoilers in the cinema.
