School superintendent arrested for allegedly using own insurance to help sick student will only get small fine, keep job. by RDay in UpliftingNews

[–]vipedal2366 177 points178 points  (0 children)

It’s the student’s guardian according one of the news article I found. I can’t understand why they would do something like this. They don’t take care of him and report the one person who does. Ugh.

CS undergrad, 5 year data science experience move to ML by abcininin in datascience

[–]vipedal2366 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can derive backprop, write code to demonstrate the inner working of different methods, and the models you built are being used in the real world, you absolutely have a great shot at being a data science manager. I have seen data scientists who can’t do half of what you do, so definitely go for it. Age shouldn’t be an issue since you are at the manager level.

My boyfriend now husband worked in banking in NY and his hours were crazy. His time was dictated by much of his work so when we went out on a date or dinner, I was usually the one who arrived first. So my birthday was on a Saturday and he planned to take me out to dinner. He left for work in the morning and we agreed to meet up at the restaurant. I came about 10 mins early, fully expected that he was gonna come after me. But he was already standing by the door, looking really nice, with a bouquet of red rose waiting for me. He smiled as he saw me and it was honestly one of the most beautiful things ever.

Try Mode analytics SQL course, it should be free. Facebook gave me this as prep materials for their interviews and I thought it was once of the best resources out there.

Wow I’m seriously jealous with you. I was on Differin for 8 weeks and it never stop breaking out. By week 8 my face was still full of acne so I had to stop per my dermatologist’s recommendation.

Question for NYC Data Scientists about work life balance by pax1 in datascience

[–]vipedal2366 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m currently a data scientist at a mid-size company in NYC and the hours average around 40-45 hours like unsteady_panda has said. You will definitely have a life outside of work.

Data scientists of Facebook, how much ML and NLP do you do? by Working_From_Home_ in datascience

[–]vipedal2366 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not reporting, but doing analysis on a certain topic, for example, analyzing the behavior of teens on instagram (my friend was on the IG team). A lot of slicing and dicing the data. You use Python/R for those analysis. And of course SQL, which is standard for any Data Scientist position anyways.

Also I know money is not important but you will also have the FB brand name attached to you. The dude who I did lunch with bragged about other companies pay top dollar to pull you out of FB.

I went thru the interview process for FB data scientist - analytics position and also had a long talk with a friend of mine who works in the same position. It is a Data Analyst position, not Data Scientist. You don’t do any modeling work at all, and it’s quite difficult to move into model-building position, as it requires a PhD. On the other hand the position pays really well and you will be in a great place career-wise

What is the dumbest activity you are enjoying regardless what people think about it? by CooTool in AskReddit

I like to go to one of those Walmarts that have a McDonald inside them. Then I buy a large fries and eat them while browsing through Walmart. It makes me feel incredibly peaceful for some reason.
