Interesting approach. I'm currently not satisfied by Pandas which seems to be the defacto tool for processing tables. But I find the query API really unnatural especially for filtering. Do you have some benchmark for performances ? Is

This is a bad practice. squeue will hit the scheduler directly. If a lot of people do that your scheduler will be busy answering squeue calls, not scheduling. (Saying this just in case we are working on the same cluster ^^)

Going from the signature to the code took me less time than scrolling through this article. I'm not sure asking the compiler to babysit you every turn of the road is a good idea.

I think I broke the Matrix: https://i.ibb.co/8zGRcNd/Screenshot-20200211-230621-Firefox-... I erased the lezard but the tail and it grew back very weirdly. How robust is this method?

The point of bang is that I don't have to setup anything. And it's pretty exhaustive I often use !gten, !gtfr or !gtes to specify the target language for Google translate. I'm glad I don't have to setup all this by mysel

This. On the condition that the search has good fuzzy matching otherwise it's tedious to remember the name of each operation. I think Sublime Text cmd+p made the mouse vs ctrl-shortcuts moot.

It's great to see this list, but it's a bit sad that all those app have to emulate Vim behavior. Do they all handle .vimrc? I think it's ridiculous that some app insists on me using their keybinding instead of mine. I'd

This is wrong. Trending is based on an actual mathematical formula based on the number of views per hour on the last 48h. Then on top of that you have some filtering who tries to downgrade clickbaity contents. In the US you also have human

In France you can have unlimited SMS + 2 hours of call per month for 2€. So it's very close to "free". Texting is free towards all EU, USA and a bunch of other countries around the world.

How much are they keeping for themselves? I'd really like to see this business model arise, but if means giving 30% to Google I'm not so sure.

I feel this switch was largely pushed by Google marketing. I wonder how much of the name change was to acknowledge the fact that a lot of Google smartness is actually not ML (eg Google search is mostly string matching and giant lookup table

I'd love to be able to have only one tab bar across all my applications. Probably a Tree Style Bar though.

Maybe computation cost? Not sure.

1) sounds like you should try Tree Style Tabs addon 5) FF has this too. I'm not exactly sure but I think it's under "history" > "recently closed windows/tabs"

How is using unmanned drone to automatically kill people around the world different from blind terrorism? It's just a matter of precision. I agree it's inevitable that someone ill intentioned use ML + drone to create deadly weap

Also the article explains that the main wealth of the 9.9% is that they live in the best neighborhood, with the best schools and the best neighbora. They use their zip code to recognize themselves. So it make sens that they place a big chu

FYI YT Red is about to launch in 100 countries in the upcoming months. AFAIK the launched has been delayed a few years because right owners used the occasion to renegociate the contract they had with Google Play Music.

Interestingly, in 19884 the government do the opposite. The workforce have some leeway (booze and sex) while the middle class (the one that could see through the party lies and revolt) is under permanent surveillance.

I think most big players (like Google) are conscious that 1) there is a lot of money to make 2) a few deaths in a row will scare the public and the regulators So they are not cutting corners. I'll be more concerned about the companies

I don't understand why the state isn't setting this up themselves. If they want people to pay their tax they should make it easy by creating a Web API that computes the tax rate for (zip code, product category, amount)

You didn't write the "automatic buy-out" clause is that intentional? I find it interesting because it allows big business to use your small project with an upper price tag, versus the current situation where they are afraid o
