Ah cheating ! I did a year abroad in California when I was studying computer science and I remember there was a huge difference between cheating there and cheating in my French school. In the later, we were given harder exercises and asked

Apple trees _are_ good candidates for starting from seeds. Especially because the kind you eat often have poor adaptability to a fresh, harsh, environment. So you start with strong, healthy, local seeds, let them grow a bit, and graft the k

> We planted a bunch of apple trees. For that we used an auger attached to a sub-compact tractor to get holes. This was pretty rough with the rocks and clay especially because the auger does not have reverse. Which meant that every time

we're not Google scale, but this works very well with precommit hooks and automatic CI checks that inspect dependencies for know vulnerabilities and incompatible licenses (you know, sonarqube and the likes). I would assume this is pret

Same as many other instances of specialized ML models, their results look good generally, but completely fall apart under scrutiny. Remember GPT-3 blogpost writing? Although, they are getting better years after years, so maybe we'll be

This used to be the case before "they" thought having personalized ads would drive up interest.

You probably mean "maximum batch size", because pagination is handled by the lastEventId and the fact that a stream is always consumed in order.

which one ? You usually only get the 2nd factor notification / approval on your mobile phone so you only enter it on the bank's app.

Don't listen to what people want or like. As I said, tree selection is not for one's lifetime : it's a gift for the next generation. If you're approaching landowners by telling them they can turn a profit in X years, you

This has absolutely nothing to do with companies wanting to invest in France - or not. Blizzard closing its Versailles HQ is also a very bad example, one, because they are in a middle of a massive crisis, and two, because the move was motiv

Sounds low. Make it seven weeks. That's what most of us get in France.

Portability is _THE_ killer feature of kubernetes. You may argue that it is not straightforward to move from EKS to AKS, but consider that any replacement solution will suffer from the same shortcomings. However, moving from 1 cluster in on

> Kubernetes solves imaginary problems, not real ones. Portability between cloud providers is not imaginary. Same for portability of network configuration.

Kubernetes is the new tech your are looking for. It's not simpler, because it _needs_ to be complex in order to provide portable, heterogeneous, application deployments. How was it before ? A bunch of unstandardized shell scripts and a

Databricks has an extremely bad API. So, sure, your Spark jobs might be a little bit faster some times, but why would you use it if you can't even read logs of running jobs?

Why would you need _any_ processing library in your runtime image ? You're not training anything, your model is set in stone.
