I think i can spot the difference in interpretation here. GG*GGP "someone in our org will ostensibly have a good reason for setting up an event in Google Analytics" In this case they already have Google Analytics. The question is

I am curious, what do you perceive as the difference between data transformations and "wrangling raw data into tables"? Edit: I am also curious why you consider SQL to be inferior for the latter?

Yes, this is what I thought and exactly what I am experiencing right now. It is somewhat frustrating to see the engineering/platform team spending time on this kind of abstraction that is essentially useless for doing the work we need

OP suggests using "built-in GA4->BQ transfer [to send] ALL the data". This seems like an extremely small endeavor.

TBH that sounds like a heap of buzzwords not useful for anyone (but maybe an architect promoting his career).

I am slightly confused by your reply. Can you elaborate a bit, was it good or bad?

Yeah maybe management path was not for me, but after a while I couldn't shake the feeling of having "santas little helper" on my business card. When the people I managed were the people that were valued in the organization, a

Your answer is reasonable but I don't agree that it is a "strange comment" as you say. Is it not possible to see yourself as having thought too much about maximizing your companys success without thinking about your own needs

Will your next workplace value all the effort you spent that way? Are the servant tasks even what you want to spend your time with? I am not suggesting that the answer to those questions has to be "no". But good to think about it.

by fifilura 3y ago
My experience regarding the servant manager is that it is really important that you also figure out what is in it for you. There is a big risk that your career stops at that - being a servant.

Sadly, I agree with you. Between work and kids it just has to go. I am also blessed with no sleeping problems which means that I fall asleep the moment i go to bed. I try to read at least one book per year during vacation. I read so much wh

Thank you for answering! Yeah there are lots of reasons to not get a heat pump, floor heating is one of them. And your gp post was not unreasonable, and food for discussion. But what part for your setup would you replace with GPU heating?

Heating your house with direct electricity is wasteful. You should get a heat pump. You will get your money back in no time. This changes the equation.

Your calculations are interesting and indeed makes you wonder why EVs are selling in USA. I can tell you that the numbers here in Europe are dramatically different. And in particular Sweden with comparatively cheap electricity. 1 liter gas

Most of the time, it feels a little bit embarrassing, but the cost is just a very small part of your regular salary and overall operating cost. If your boss hits you with this, they don't have the correct perspective and priorities. My

What does it matter? Yeah, at the very bottom of it all there will be a loop. I wouldn't attribute that to C but to the von Neumann architecture. The point is that by getting rid of loops you remove one way of telling the computer &quo

I am happy for you, you seem to have reached your local optimum!

SQL is popular because it can be run on a map/reduce backend. So once you have written your code it can run on any number of machines.

SQLite has RECURSIVE, so you can generate a table with all numbers using something like: WITH RECURSIVE cnt(x) AS ( SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT x+1 FROM cnt LIMIT 5 ) SELECT x FROM cnt; And then do a regular CROSS JOI

I usually only do one join at a time. But I separate them with CTEs ("WITH"). I can agree that many joins at once can make you grow grey hair.
832.
by fifilura 3y ago
Just that deeply inside that forest of functions you just wrote is the inner join that the SQL query would do in a couple of lines of code embedded.

Uw you win, I guess. Already started to think what I would write in that code review comment ;)

by fifilura 3y ago
This is not what I call a for loop but more akin to a list comprehension. And this is the point I was trying to make. Instead of start with the "how", learn to do the "what".

1. If you are a a programmer I think you should learn SQL. It will give you a different perspective on programming that I think is invaluable. (I.e. programming without for loops) 2. Combining and slicing data is a craft, and doing it subtl

The absurdly paternal whites believed it would be so much better for the Inuit if they returned to their traditional ways, without any thought at all for the survival-imperative generational knowledge of the land the Inuit would lose by rel

This comment sounds so insightful, but I don't have the knowledge/insight to understand it! I would love it if you could add some practical example.

It would be interesting if this distribution found use in military theory!

This is very interesting, mine did too, but with an even narrower dark patch. It is like an attacker-defender equilibrium situation where the vertical guy runs up and down a trench and the attacker tries different paths for orthogonal attac
