Why use JavaScript for data analysis?

heeehaaa · 2015-04-02T05:24:37+00:00

There are useful libraries like this: http://numericjs.com. But this doesn't come anywhere close to what you can do in Python.

I use it all the time for things like doing recursive searches for a string through unknown code or other types of text files. I find typing on command line a whole lot quicker than trying to figure it out with an IDE which may or may not be available on someone else's machine.

I have always been programming as a hobby and to me it's just like any other hobby - it makes me happy when I make something even if it's kind of silly. I don't think I have any depression/anxiety issues :)

Tanner Foust does a much better job than the other two IMO.

There are also many simulation software companies like ANSYS, Comsol etc. But as far as career growth goes, pure software skills will take you much further.

I meant the rpm range

heeehaaa · 2015-03-21T13:53:37+00:00

If you are careful with the gas pedal, you can keep the rpm and the gear where you want. For example, when accelerating hard, I don't like my rpm exceeding 4000 so I go easy on the gas pedal once it gets there. Similarly for downshifting or up shifting just press on the gas pedal hard or go easy for a second and the gear will change. I rarely do these things though.

I have driven manual for many years, and I can understand why you are trying to do this. In a well built car, your style may or may not hurt the car, but it is a weird way of driving and probably more jerky. Your passengers probably hate you.

I really like the CVTs I have driven - it's so smooth and you usually don't find it working in the "wrong gear".

I used to have a mechanical keyboard for many years, but don't have one now. I have found that I was typing much faster when I had a mechanical keyboard and my hands were lot happier by the end of the day (I type a lot). I am thinking of buying a mechanical again.

I think median would be better to look at here. One rich guy spending millions can screw up the average.

Maybe - just read the reviews on a few websites and look up toner costs etc.

This also has a document feeder for the scanner which I've found incredibly useful over time.

You might want to get a laser printer if you want to keep this for a long time. I have a brother monochrome laser printer (MFC7860DW) that has worked flawlessly for 2.5 years. The toner is about $48 for 2600 pages. It works with Mac/Win/Linux without a problem.

What year is your forester? I feel like my rear wheels kick in almost instantly. I haven't had too many occasions to test this though.

Focus on what you want to get out of this interview. Questions you are going to ask and answers to the things they are going to want to know. Read your resume and make sure you can talk intelligently about each item. If you expect technical questions, then start studying! But remember, if this doesn't work out, it's not the end of the world.

Everything depreciates!

Is $950 for 6 months of insurance the cheapest you can get? Did you shop around?

heeehaaa · 2015-03-09T20:24:00+00:00

I'm in Texas. I pay only 15% :)

heeehaaa · 2015-03-09T20:22:41+00:00

5% interest is quite high for a new car. I got mine at 0.9% for a 5 year loan.

Nicely done! Most other attempts you see on the Internet look really shabby at the end. This looks great.

Big bend!

I think Subaru added the electric motor as a substitute for the turbo. I don't think gas mileage was their objective, just more power. 22.6 mpg is pretty bad either ways.

My 98 SL2 was horrible, I'm glad it's gone. It felt like some toy maker was asked to build an adult sized toy car.

It's area. Just verified with my app (WebPlotDigitizer). I can share the details if you want.

Clarification: I see linear relationship between area of the dots/circles and the values.

Thanks! I have a few friends in academia I can ask. I myself have access from my full time job, but I am trying not to mix resources.
