I'm torn. In my heart, I absolutely did not want Amazon here due to how it would obliterate any shred of culture we have left, decimate anyone who didn't work in tech, and paralyze the city's traffic completely. On the other

Except with property you have the utility value of having a place that keeps rain off of your head and with the S&P you have the utility value of.. getting to be obsessive about numbers on a screen every moment of every day. Whether tha

Oh, I have an idea. It involves crazy glue, 4 pallets of waffle cones, and a pitchfork, but nobody writes an article when I spew nonsense.

I suppose you didn't read the article, but if you did, his idea really has nothing to do with building a tunnel.

Oh god. Of course he does. Stay out of this Musk. There's lives at stake here and nobody needs your brainworm riddled opinions.

Do you not think that once in 30 years one the ~50 rich, seemingly very intelligent people that live on that street didn't step out onto it and think, "Hey.. this is a nice private street we have here. The property taxes on it mus

Well, for at least a single year. I mean.. Work twice as hard for one year, and get paid close to what I can reasonably expect to make in 20.. yea, seems like a no brainer.

I actually don't think this is particularly heinous as long as they are completely transparent and open about it. Hell, if they wanted to be even more above board, they should provide a slider that allows you to allocate a percentage o

I enjoy them. It strikes me as extremely odd that the main complaint against open floor plans is that they kill productivity. This is such a complaint that there's people up and down this post moaning in agony as if it were literal tor

This. I had a problem where I needed to scrape roughly 20,000 html documents daily, which is normally a pretty slow task. You have to open the file, load it into memory, parse the DOM, and then run all of your selection methods. Sequentiall

Python is insanely fast at data processing and analysis because it has very fast libraries. As a matter of fact, don't know if you've heard, but data processing it kind of like.. Python's thing...

Its not bigotry. Its demography. Bigotry would be me, upon hearing someone is a welder, asking them why they voted for Trump. Demography is the realization that welders work nationwide, multitudes in rural areas, multitudes in traditionally

I don't think I implied that at all. If you felt that way, you might be revealing your own cognitive biases. I don't think any form of labor is morally superior to anything else, mainly because I disagree with the whole concept of

I grew up in small(ish) town Texas with those exact viewpoints. I wouldn't say that my viewpoint was exactly ostracized, but it was definitely "odd" and Other. I never really suffered any physical intimidation for my viewpoin

Not to Godwin it or anything, but... Wasn't the passivity and meekness of the opposition the exact reason fascists were able to rise relatively easily in the intrawar period? Personally, I think the concept that there aren't ideas

Yes, I was mostly being flippant there. I've known several welders and iron workers and they tend to mostly be apolitical and when they have opinions they're a fair mix of both left and right. But welders is what came to mind firs

The isolation aspect is.. problematic, yes. But I'm much more worried about the cheating aspect. Its a fairly routine occurance that if we're interviewing an East Asian, they'll contact current Asians working in our departmen

You seem to conflate your economic systems with your political systems. I recommend some independent study in political economy.

I've worked at a couple of places where they've hired one key "influencer" manager who then proceeded to recruit half of their old team. It can be good or bad depending on the quality of the team. When its bad, its parti

Its a fairly common thing in restaurants, at least in the South, to hang outside clear plastic bags half full of water from any sort of awning or overhang, especially around dumpsters. Supposedly it confuses flies and they'll leave the

There was very little discussion of the most authoritarian aspect of most children's lives, school. Absolute, unbridled authority that gets to dictate all of the circumstances of your physical being 35 hours a week for 12 years, with n

Every time I start to fall into the conceit that I'm an exceptionally good developer, I look at things like kernels or low level hardware programming and eat a big ol' slice of humble pie.

Having grown up in a rural flyover state, I just need to point out the rank hypocrisy. The prevailing ideology there is that the government should stay out of the way and let the market decide the best course of action. Except when the mark

The world would be better served by Apple getting out of the hardware business and just selling OSX, allowing it to run on any x86 architecture without all of the Hackintosh bull. I don't understand who these people are that are spendi

Why are we constantly pushing for larger and larger open worlds? When I was a kid, the idea of such a gigantic open world where I could spend endless hours exploring would have been amazing. However, now, as an adult with responsibilities,

How about a custom sensor class that never timesout and you define its poke method to listen for data and processes it? Granted, you'll have to make sure you allocate enough workers for that..

To add to that, you can create a DAG class that's really just a wrapper that executes your R script and waits for its return code.

We're currently in a PoC phase of implementing Airflow and testing it out versus Luigi. So far, what I've liked, is that Airflow seems to be much more extensible and modular than Luigi. Getting Luigi to play nicely with our partic
