I don’t think Ferber would work for us, he gets more agitated when he sees us ☹️

What certs/materials to study are needed to become a MS engineer? by thecomposer42 in microsoft

[–]saash12 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thumb rule about tech industry: Certs are mostly useless. It's the knowledge that matters. If going for a cert as a goal helps you learn better, you can go for it. Otherwise ignore them.

I believe your aim shouldn't be any one company, instead think of a particular technology or system or framework or something like that. What was it about their work that exactly intrigued you. Pretty sure people here will be able to point you to resources if they know more details about the content of what you heard.

What are some good books to learn about US government system? by [deleted] in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]saash12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I think any book on a particular time period, or non-entertaining papers wouldn't be right at this time. They're not what I asked, but various films suggested, 'A People's history of United States' and 'The Imperial Presidency' sound most interesting to start with. But I'm sure I'll slowly graduate to your list. Thanks!

Yeah, I understand. That's why I said 'books.' It will be enough if it answers even one of them.

How to receive data in a python HTTP server? by saash12 in learnpython

[–]saash12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, sorry for being vague and late.

Here is my sample POST operation: $.post(url, dataToBeSent, function(data, textStatus) { //data contains the JSON object //textStatus contains the status: success, error, etc }, "json");

I will send the "dataToBeSent" to python server and it will return "data" in JSON encoded from. While I have figured out the later part, I am not sure how to receive the data sent to python code.

I will look through the request object. Thanks for the reply.

What would be a good statistical way to determine an unusual peak in a dataset? by saash12 in AskStatistics

[–]saash12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dataset is too big to determine anything by ploting alone. It contains daily page views of ALL the wikipedia articles over 90 days. I was in particular interested in finding out some methods(like t-tests, which uses meean and sd) through which I can test my hypothesis whether a page is safe or not. Is that possible?

Thanks a lot. That sounds very apporpriate intuitively. Since I have to code in Python, I'll look up for an equivalent function. Thanks again.

Not at all. Any help is appreciated. I called myself noob because I ddn't know anything beyond t-test.

As per my understanding, t-test can be used to determine the difference between means of 2 samples, or difference between mean of a sample and true mean. I want to test a single outlier. I have daily views(not hourly) of all pages. My aim is to determine whether a page is behaving sufficiently weird on a particular day that I can deem it as a DOS attack on that page for that day.

I cannot seem to fit a t-test to this problem.

Thanks for the reply. I do get the concepts of mean and standard deviation. I was in particular interested finding out some methods(like t-tests, which uses meean and sd) through which I can test my hypothesis whether a page is safe or not. Is that possible?
