I’d love to hear your take on the nonsensical shape and staggered key layout. Do you have suggestions for keyboards that do away with this? I have myself been looking at https://ergodox-ez.com/ but I’d love to hear of alter

What makes you think R or Python are bad at parallelism? My experience is that both are very decent.

There’s a realeastate market, we agree on that right? That market is a free market in the econ 101 sense is what I’m saying. You are questioning whether it is morally fair that the world is the way it is. That has nothing to do with my post

Let’s be clear. I’m not saying that she has to give a statement, but if your a third party writing a blogpost about a case where the victim has come forwards, you could state that. You could even ask the victim what she thinks, and just sta

It sounds a lot like the mob has decided someone needs to get fired. Despite not knowing the specific details and despite a third party investigation concluding that reprimands and sensitivity training was sufficient. I don’t know what “ina

But isn’t land ownership and renting free markets? If there is profit to be made by renting out land, investors should look to buy land to rent out, since both the land market and pool of renters are limited this should naturally drive up p

You have a point, and I can’t tell you why they decided to go with /usr/bin/bash instead of usr+bin+bash back in the dawn of computing. I suppose you could write you own set of tools to change the entire ecosystem to use that

Honestly I’d rather live in a world where those who expose government conspiracies and corruption are protected than one where they are held to the letter of a law.

Yes... What do you think they’d use? Those who prefer python are using PyCharm and VSCode, and then some use Jupyther, while others use Rstudio, matlab or Mathematica. Of cause you also have some doing emacs or vim, but that’s a minority.

That’s testing not modeling. If someone asks you to do analysis of a drug trial and you come back with a report based on fictitious user data because “devs should not have access to real data” you’ll be laughed out the room.
