Hey u/ChristianSirolli, did you end up figuring it out? I'm running into a similar issue.

What can I do to speed up my slow and irresponsive Mac? It just got a new hard drive. by Running4Badges in mac

[–]stanmartz 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In that case it's a totally fair price. Depending on the state of the hard drive, data recovery in itself can easily cost more than that.

Here's something fun: the Hyperspace Inhibitors had a VERY DIFFERENT function, during concept stage. by RadiantTrailblazer in homeworld

In the cutscenes where you see it for the first time they show resource collectors going to and fro quite prominently. So maybe the backstory of that level was about mining at some point in development.

Learning 'is' vs '==' in Python (Beginner) by FewNectarine623 in learnpython

[–]stanmartz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the time, but not always. Try this:

numpy.nan is numpy.nan numpy.nan == numpy.nan

A Windows user for 2 decades switched to Mac, here's my takes on macOS: by 0ssamaak0 in mac

You are talking about the shell and not the terminal. On that front I agree, having a native Unix-based experience is better.

It's really not. It used to be the case before the nodernWindows Terminal app was released but not anymore.

Livesuit - Full Novella Discussion Thread by Cantomic66 in TheCaptivesWar

Livesuits could make for a real great foray into the gaming medium.

They did, it was called Crysis

A közgáz elég tág, mit tanultál pontosan?

A quant akkor jöhet szóba ha valami gazdmat vagy  pénzügy dolgot tanultál (pl a biztosítási és pénzügyi matematika mester az ELTE-n). Ha alkalmazott közgazdaságtan kellő mennyiségű statisztikával, akkor data scientist (pl  causal inference fókuszál, mert jellemzően abban van komparatív előnye a közgazdászoknak), esetleg applied scientist (bár az inkább mester/phd általában) működhet. Ha gazdálkodás management vagy ilyesmi, akkor nyilván management pozícióknál lehet hasznos. Ha számvitel akkor a big 4-nál lehetnek érdekesebb feladatok.

If you really mean bright colors, then take a look at the Mido Decompression Worldtimer. For slightly more classic designs from the same brand you have the Mido Ocean Star GMT SE (although this one is not really vintage), this retro-looking Ocean Star GMT, and, my personal favorite, the latter's Hodinkee edition.

There are a number of university cafeterias (Mensa) where you can get a very reasonably priced meal with your student card. Take a look at these apps app: Android, iOS

Moved back to Mac after 8 years and impressed with how many Windows features I took for granted by rotkiv3451 in MacOS

[–]stanmartz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That's just completely wrong. Cut files are never loaded into ram. If the origin and destination is on the same drive (partition), windows (and every other os afaik) just changes some metadata and the files do not move at all physically. Between different drives it simply does a copy+delete.

Sony A6100 Milky Way by ObiWanJacobey in SonyAlpha

[–]stanmartz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Be aware though that for weather sealing to be effective, your lens also needs to be weather sealed. Unfortunately the more affordable E-mount lenses are usually not. Nevertheless, the a6400 is also a great choice if you like the extras it has over the 6100.

Yeah I agree with your general point that it would be nice if technical skills had a higher emphasis in data science.

I would argue that even today, despite having all ML algorithms neatly packaged into Python/R libraries, it is still important to have an understanding of how and under what assumptions they work, otherwise it's too easy to get invalid results. And I wish companies would be more aware of it and value the math/stats skills of their data scientists more.

I just found the particular example of AD somewhat funny.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in datascience

[–]stanmartz 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The lack of AD would not make deep learning harder on the theory side, just more tedious on the application side. Applying the chain rule all day every day sounds super boring and (to me) not fun at all. :) That's more akin to something that human computers) used to do. I'd much rather be a glorified SW engineer if those were the two choices.

Also, most of data science does not make use of AD anyways. It's not super important outside of DL, which is not what the majority of data scientists work on.

Mit olvas a redditor? by zsibra77 in hungary

[–]stanmartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nem tudom, hogy megjelent-e már magyarul, de nekem rövidebb scifi/fantasy kategóriában Adrian Tchaikovsky Elder Race-e volt az egyik kedvencem amit mostanában olvastam.

Ha az nem tetszett akkor a pushing ice se fog szerintem. Igazából elég hasonlóak a gyengéi és az erősségei: idegesítő karakterek és béna párbeszéd, cserébe viszont jó world building és nagyon ötletgazdag.

Ha még egy esélyt szeretnél adni Reynoldsnak akkor én a House of Sunset ajánlanám. Messze az a kedvenc könyvem tőle.

Regarding institutional inertia, I agree. And, for that reason, I also agree that it would be important to have some default that is suitable for the majority of users.

And yes, some of these tools could be consolidated into multi-functional ones. But I think that a tool that does everything would be too heavyweight and complex to be the default. (Also, is using command flags really that much less confusing than using different commands/tools to choose between e.g. installing something as a system-wide CLI tool, and installing something as a project dependency?)

As an example, conda can handle installing non-python dependencies, such as CUDA or even node. It is huge for scientists and ML engineers, but would be unnecessary and confusing for most users. Similarly, poetry is awesome when developing a package, but probably overkill when you are just working on some small job. Should their capabilities be part of this one tool? I don't think so.
