Is Arrow good for text data or does the columnar format lose its benefits when dealing with lots of arbitrary length strings?

Do others also find it strange that the postal service has their own police force?

Doesn't that depend on what libraries you need?

The key is to catch the people who buy stolen bikes in bulk. The thieves need somewhere to fence the bikes, without that they'd be stuck trying to unload them on the street. Years ago in Toronto they arrested a single person who had wa

You can't even search within the page. Ctrl-F hides the content and shows the progress bars.

Who decided that 'lightpink' should be darker than 'pink'? Also, nice project :)

Did something important change in Arrow 3.0 in terms of working with text data? Is Arrow good for text data in general? I think I'm missing some context needed in order to be impressed by this post

I'm running 11.2.1 on a 2018 MacBook Pro i9. Should be sufficient to swipe desktops, you'd think.

My biggest gripe with the Big Sur update is that it's now incredibly slow to swipe between desktops. It used to be responsive and now I need to wait 5-6 seconds before anything happens.

Don't forget the moderate/centrist outrage with both the leftists and rightists.

There's a lot of stuff I want to know about that I don't know where else to find out about it, and much of this is outraging. For example, a lot of my Twitter feed is people pointing out how the Canadian media misrepresents events

I check Twitter to learn what I should be outraged about. I literally say to myself "I wonder what I should be outraged about today?" and then lo and behold, Twitter tells me. I don't know where else to get that information.

The "U" in UBI stands for "universal". Everyone gets it all the time.

Would really love to see first class support for Javascript/Typescript for data visualization purposes. The columnar format would naturally lend itself to an Entity-Component style architecture with TypedArrays.

I'm curious what sort of NLP use cases people are solving. How are people finding business value in these models and pipelines? We have looked at a number of uses and have found it hard to make a case for ROI. Wondering what's bee

How do we prevent fraud? Is there a way to change the incentives? Statistical analysis of results to detect bogus numbers? Only cite research that has been independently replicated and apply a "provisional" label to the first resu

This seems like a failure of government.

I've looked at this and thought it looked amazing, but also haven't used it for anything. Some thoughts... Rust is a blessing and curse. I seems like the obvious choice for data pipelines, but everything big currently exists in Ja

I recall someone who worked there describing people being paid to do nothing, just so they wouldn't be hired by anyone else. Sounded like they had fat to cut. Regarding their product and viability, I've always relied on their prod

Can't reply to Kaze404's reply to this, but just wanted to say that I didn't intend to compare Parler to any left-wing social network or group I'm aware of. Just saying that from my experience with the left, there are co

It might just be editorializing. Perhaps the community is self-selecting enough that censorship isn't needed. Regardless, it's not "moderation-free"

In the tweet text it says "all new users start out shadowbanned until enough of their post get approved for rightthink by their user moderators"

I see a number of people here describing Parler as "unmoderated", but it turns out they do have extensive moderation [1] that they use to ensure ideological conformity in their posts. Then the most active users were paid for their
