Would the code have been there and the demo have happened if you had done everything by the book?

Just wanted to say I appreciate discussion and i don't feel any animosity. In this case these were all internal priorities. But you are right, maybe it is not for me to be reaspn why or be upset about.

Yeah, probably company politics. But this is also real. What happened here was 1) that the techy guys convinced higher management that this is essential for success. (Replacing a fully functional CI/CD tool with another CI/CD tool

I disagree. Delivering on the core functionality is the most important task.

by fifilura 2y ago
Those are all examples of menial tasks IMO. So the organization/company that delivers on those - Wins?

One way to create a "measurable goal" is to focus on what you can control. In our case this meant improving the platform, far away from chaotic customers. Lo and behold, the result was down-prioritizing customer delivery.

What I mean that it gravitates toward menial tasks. They will have an edge. "Deliver product X" most of the time depends on so much more than my or the teams performance. Maybe it is not even a priority anymore?

I my experience, measurable goals is a pipe dream. It promotes menial tasks like "take a 2 day course in React". "Clean my desk twice a week" "write 10 unit tests" over "spending 100% of my time creating v

So it seems like what they call tables are in fact maps or dicts. "Symbol tables". I initially raised my eyebrows since what actual tables would have brought would be joins on non unique keys and multiple columns. That would have

Yeah I forgot a question mark.

by fifilura 2y ago
But still maybe the concepts for working with them (group by/ join/ aggregate) are similar? There are lots of things you can do with a table as a general purpose data structure. And I was curious if this was a similarity? When you

I have not looked at Lua but this: > I can usually accomplish whatever I need to without looking anything up" And "everything is a table" Makes it sound a lot like SQL. Edit: I prefer replies to downvotes.

Being ahead didn't help much? I would not say ahead, rather out of step with the times.

In Europe it is more like 50-60c/kWh and with 2kWh/10km it is getting pretty close to gas prices. Particularly if you compare with an ultra low consumer like Prius or similar.

It was more a thing with the mad-cow disease. That spread by cows eating bone-meal from their own species. Infected by fungus.

If you only knew how many chicken are killed every day. For eating, but also - are you aware what happens to the male chicken of the egg-laying breeds?

Ok, so maybe Toyota miscalculated because of the Chinese price dumps? But note that I was not refering to the luxury case in my original post.

by fifilura 2y ago
Yes, but you also paid $10k more for the car? And is it more if you compare it with e.g. a used Toyota Prius?

The point is that once you depend on a supercharger, the price of the EV is not that attractive anymore.

by fifilura 2y ago
> just drives to a supercharger and grabs a burger. Sure, but what do they pay? (not including the burger)

I used to frown at Toyota for being behind in electric. But I think they are probably more clever than I. They realize that there is still a huge chunk of the market with people living in apartments without cheap possibility to charge the E

Possibly, but it seems like overkill for the type of analysis that the OP expected the interviewee to do with awk. SQL should be fine for that. Actually, I have a feeling that the awk solution will struggle if there are many unique keys. Fo

FWIW I am the same. I tend to recommend BigQuery and AWS/Athena in various posts. Many times paired with Parquet. But it is because it makes a lot of things much simpler, and that a lot of people have not realized that. Tooling is movi

by fifilura 2y ago
I agree with this. BigQuery or AWS s3/Athena. You shouldn't have to set up a cluster for data jobs these days. And it kind of points out the reason for going with a data scientist with the toolset he has in mind instead of optimiz

Right. It also highlights the extreme situation we have with Russias brutal and illegal invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine (oustide EU sofar) is number two on the list afger Turkey and also Russia is pretty far up.

A little pressed with time, but does it handle leap years properly? Since every year divisible by 100 is not a leap year, unless it is also divisible by 400? (E.g. 1900 is not a leap year but 2000 is)

What are the numbers if you compare Germany to California, including people moving in from other states of the US? Remember that EU has a free flow of work force, so I expect lots of those 18% will come from Netherlands or France. In Sweden
