You've definitely missed the point because you're concerned about the "very end of the query". I'm describing both a reporting and more importantly as far as I'm concerned an explorative process that's d

I'm pretty sure the question was done with much more understanding and cynicism towards chatgpt than you give it credit for. I've played with chat-gpt3 a lot and have a pretty good understanding of where it can and does fail, but

Having looked at similar contracts (specifically UofC's CrimeLab running analysis of police data against UofC hospital xray data), the pairing is required to be done on a host such that the xray data never leaves the UofC imaging infra

Good to know, thanks. Though, that's still a pretty shoddy state of affairs.

They have much more than just 19th Century records. Where'd you get 19th century as an upper bounds from? It seems hard to find date ranges for what they exactly collect and store, but I found this relevant line that gives 2002 as an u

It is. At least in the inverse from what I've tried -- adding emotion into an unemotional thing. It can take very benign topics and turn them into absolute ragefests, or some apparent deep wonder of life, or simple sadness. And through

That could be it. I work outside of "tech" these days at smaller orgs that naturally attract people with significantly different personal motivations to those in the tech world.

I think it's a red flag when it's also attached to a certain kind of confidence that their bootcamp experience was on-par with years of experience or education. As in, the kind of attitude where that they feel that because they we

I would love this addition in SQL. My work is largely exploratory with SQL. 99% of my queries will never get saved anywhere. At the end of the day it's just syntactic sugar, but sometimes when writing reports you sometimes don't w

That "just" is holding an enormous weight there, friend. Have you seen the query responses themselves to know whether they're not not getting back bulk info? And have you seen the giant private-public systems they'll wan

It is not called "useless UUoC comment" (UUUoCC) without justification. ;) From a personal taste perspective, I'm not a fan of either. Having a floating "<" at the start of a line just isn't my cup of tee. N

It's a perfectly valid pet peeve, especially with things like `tr` being weird about accepting files as input. This works: cat file.log | tr 'a' 'b' This doesn't: tr 'a' 'b' file.

One thing I've done to identify infrequent log entries within a log file is to remove all numbers from a file and print out a frequency of each. Basically just helps to disregard timestamps (not just at the beginning of the line), line

Oh yes. CSVs are deceptively challenging especially if your use-case is from excel files to csv. Excel will happily convert a worksheet to csv, but it's a naive conversation. Headers that start on line 3, multi-line headers, inconsiste

Not sure you think I've already made up my mind on this. I'm in no way saying that all, nor even close to a majority of religious folk are big liars. But the ones who commit the biggest, farthest reaching lies tend have largely be

May I ask what your beliefs are? Some of the strongest seekers-of-truth I know are atheist, or so agnostic they might as well be atheists. The biggest liars I know of are deeply religious.

Yeah, I think for your audience, pandas makes total sense! When I first started using it, it was through an ambitiously large project with tons of gaps in data, untype-able text for 1% of rows, didn't fit in memory.. etc. So my persona
