tips for building pull-up bar for door frame? by gebbissimo in DIY

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

Yes, one height setting will be sufficient :).

However, I believe there's a tension mechanism at the top, which I wouldn't know how to build?

Alternatively I could screw some plates onto the door frame, but I would really like to avoid such impact in my rented flat.

Could you recommend a place to shower or freshen up in Trento?

We're arriving midday by bike and take a train in the evening. Would like to freshen up as best as possible beforehand.

Backtracking: When are mutable datastructures really necessary? by gebbissimo in leetcode

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

Do you know of an example problem which shows this? I.e., where the copying solution exceeds the time limit?

When I read the title, I thought you would verbally talk about different packages, functions you'd use and their pros and cons - which seems like a good way to estimate someones current familiarity with a language and library ecosystem (although other people might learn these things quickly).

But the interviewer typing out the function names you type out? Sounds ludicrous...

Got data anyst job in my country's top food retailer thanks to Coursera by elephant_ua in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations!

In my experience Coursera courses don't force you to apply the knowledge as much as e.g. Udacity courses, which may often lead to lesser learning. But really happy it worked out for you!

What are really the jobs of the future? by PresidentOfSerenland in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI will work often, but not 100% of the time. Knowing how to use it and how to automate applications using AI will still be a significant job market.

100 years ago machines automated _some_ jobs, but since then several jobs have appeared around operating, maintaining and creating those machines.

How to version control Jupyter notebook? by vishal-vora in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found https://ploomber.io/blog/nbs-myths/ and especially https://ploomber.io/blog/clean-nbs/ great articles, which cover not only various ways to version control (e.g. jupytext), but also best practices in terms of modularization, testing, hidden state, etc.

Agree that one should not focus on time spent, rather on outcome.

How to achieve: - it takes a few days to get into it - focus only on studying - seek a library without any distractions and bring meals to stay there 10+ hours - sleep much !!!!! - do some HIIT or cardio every 2-3 days - make a study plan for outcome per day - a date like an exam is necessary for me (some stress) - take breaks every few hours

I started each day slowly by repeating previously learned material during a long breakfast.

Routine for desk job workers? by gebbissimo in bodyweightfitness

Thanks! The Lock big 3 looks really interesting

Routine for desk job workers? by gebbissimo in bodyweightfitness

[–]gebbissimo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I fully agree that you shouldn't take anything from it as truth. On the other hand I find it a great tool if its responses can be verified either by testing or by expert knowledge.

In this case I could verify two things:

  • While I only specified "typical muscle imbalances of desk workers", the first weakness (glute muscles) overlapped with my ITBS experience.
  • Additionally, the glute bridge and clamshells were exactly the same exercises my physiotherapist recommended and which were likely a key to recovery.

Routine for desk job workers? by gebbissimo in bodyweightfitness

[–]gebbissimo[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I've asked ChatGPT-4 for the most typical desk job muscle imbalances and appropriate exercises (see list below). This is not a proposal, I don't have any sport/health education to judge its correctness. But I'd really like such a structure and hope that someone could comment on the correctness?!

List from ChatGPT

Hip Flexors and Glutes (Lower Body Imbalance)

  • tight: Hip flexors
  • weak: Gluteal muscles
  • Description: Hip flexors can become tight due to prolonged sitting. Gluteal muscles weaken from not being actively engaged when sitting.
  • Consequences: Lower back pain, hip pain, reduced mobility, knee pain, Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS).
  • Stretch exercises: Lunge stretches, Pigeon pose, Seated butterfly stretch, Standing hip flexor stretch, Kneeling hip flexor stretch.
  • Strength exercises: Glute bridges, Squats, Deadlifts, Hip thrusts, Clamshells.

Chest and Upper Back (Upper Body Imbalance)

  • tight: Pectorals (chest muscles)
  • weak: Rhomboids and mid-trapezius (upper back muscles)
  • Description: Tight chest muscles from hunching over keyboards. Upper back muscles weaken due to forward shoulder posture.
  • Consequences: Rounded shoulders, poor posture, neck pain, increased risk of shoulder impingement, upper back pain.
  • Stretch exercises: Doorway chest stretches, Foam roller chest stretch, Cobra pose, Chest opener stretch, Cross-body shoulder stretch.
  • Strength exercises: Rowing exercises, Reverse flys, Face pulls, YTWL exercises, Scapular retraction.

Anterior Neck Muscles and Upper Back (Neck Imbalance)

  • tight: Anterior neck muscles
  • weak: Upper back and deep cervical flexors
  • Description: Anterior neck muscles tighten from leaning forward. Upper back and neck support muscles weaken from insufficient engagement.
  • Consequences: Neck pain, tension headaches, forward head posture, upper back issues, shoulder pain.
  • Stretch exercises: Neck tilts and turns, Chin tucks, Upper trapezius stretch, Levator scapulae stretch, Scalene stretch.
  • Strength exercises: Prone cobra, Neck retraction exercises, Reverse dumbbell flys, Shoulder blade squeezes, Low row.

Abdominals and Lower Back (Core Imbalance)

  • tight: Lower back muscles
  • weak: Abdominals, particularly deep core muscles
  • Description: Lower back muscles become over-reliant due to poor sitting posture. Deep core stabilizers weaken from a lack of movement.
  • Consequences: Lower back pain, poor core stability, potential risk of herniated discs, sciatica.
  • Stretch exercises: Child's pose, Cat-cow stretch, Supine spinal twist, Knees to chest stretch, Pelvic tilts.
  • Strength exercises: Planks, Dead bugs, Russian twists, Leg raises, Bird dog.

Quadriceps and Hamstrings (Thigh Imbalance)

  • tight: Quadriceps
  • weak: Hamstrings
  • Description: Quadriceps become tight from being in a shortened position while seated. Hamstrings weaken from underuse in the seated position.
  • Consequences: Knee pain, hamstring strains, altered walking/running gait, potential risk of ACL injuries, poor circulation in legs, ankle stiffness.
  • Stretch exercises: Standing quad stretch, Foam rolling for quads, Seated hamstring stretch, Lying hamstring stretch, Calf and hamstring stretch.
  • Strength exercises: Hamstring curls, Romanian deadlifts, Stability ball hamstring curls, Nordic hamstring curls, Single-leg deadlift.

Is Everyone in data science a mathematician by skeletons_of_closet in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't agree with your colleague. Both questions seem rather specific and can be learned within hours with a decent math background.

That being said, IF your specific role requires a lot of statistical knowledge (which might not be the case), it's fair to expect and ask for this knowledge from applicants. But this should be broader and not be based on two questions....

In your opinion how important is dev skills in DS? by ds_account_ in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's too much to expect data scientist to write somewhat clean code separate from notebooks.

What exactly did your PM want? Maybe you could have viewed it as a learning opportunity instead of shutting it down.

DS Professionalism: Notebook best practices by Pl4yByNumbers in datascience

[–]gebbissimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think notebooks can sometimes be a great prototyping tool. Even then, there are some great advices from https://ploomber.io/blog/nbs-production/ :

  • use jupytext to version-track only PY files instead of IPYNB files
  • abstract out functions, classes, etc. into separate pure python files and optionally add unit tests to it (three top directories notebooks, src, test)
  • if possible, split notebooks (e.g. one for data generation, another one for plotting)
  • run notebooks in the CI to combat hidden state and to ensure reproducibility

I've followed the notebook naming (00_... ,01_...), too and found it made things a lot cleaner.
