You realized that most of the vitamins we get from a meat-based diet are in the food because we feed the multivitamins to the animals? It is just an unnecessary layer of indirection added. It turns out that people who earn a living with pro

If you work with graphs I can wholeheartedly recommend plotly/dash. It has a very intuitive API. And you can build a single page app dashboard with interactive graphs and buttons, sliders etc. in a few hours. It is based on Flask. If y

It’s a circus like finding a rental apartment in a city. Everybody knows you are playing an artificial role but you need to be able to play it well enough so people can be sure you are “normal” enough. Just try to look for advanced concepts

You can package anything in an exe, even python. If you want code that ja just binary (no runtime) then C++ or Rust is your best bet.

I think it might be a bit of both. Hiring is a noisy process and interviewers try to use questions which can divide the signal from the noise with high efficiency (read: no false positives). They willingly take the risk that they will gener

Hm basically I am just looking for efficient storage and support for date type fields. The numeric values can be floats or integers. Probably any SQL database will do the job, but I felt there was probably a more domain-specific solution ma

Uff, the question why you are not motivated? Are you afraid your results are not perfect enough? Are you afraid you will fail? Do you think it’s boring and you need to do something more interesting? Or is your body just exhausted? Think abo

The New York Times writes great articles and usually you get a discount so it only costs 1 or 2$ per week which I find really fair pricing. Also popular substack Newsletters. It totally depends though, some are just hot air even in the paid

What is the difference? Set trace will basically hold the code at that line (breakpoint) and drop you into the interactive debugger session. It seems like syntactic sugar. edit: but what seems like interesting concept is to overwrite sys.br

I think the idea is to improve your learning speed by having experienced peers around you. If you only help less experienced people all day, i.e. 'you are the go-to answer man', before you are a true domain expert, that can hinder

To add to that: It is always a good idea to finish the work day before you completely solved the problem. That allows you to pick up right where you left off in the next morning.
