Yea i kind of agree also the way I have set up the page it is only an issue in mobile view. I guess the combination of no JS and mobile is even smaller.

Really good point. I'm more of a backend person. But how would you do it?

I mean I hate JS as much as the next person. Also, for my blog I wanted to use as minimal JS as possible. But when it comes to a sidebar I don't think adding a few lines like this is soo bad. <script> const button_close

Not sure if this was really because of the pandemic but for me the last 3 years have been life changing in a positive way. A feeling of "not beeing the only one feeling lonely sometimes" I think helped for sure.

happy to hear that. I fell in the trap of "to write a blog i have to code it myself haha" but il get back to you when its public:)

ah interesting, didnt even think about storing them this way makes them more efficient. Do you have any ressource on that?:)

So, I went directly into data science after an econ degree, worked there for 2 years and then transitioned to SWE (at startups). First, I am 100% certain ML will become a part of the standard SWE toolkit (just like apis, docker, sql, etc..)

I wonder what you all are using for EFS? I guess for larger models in ML (like NLP transformer stuff) it makes sense. I have observed myself moving everything i could to a DB and if i cant mostly S3. But for both there will be a latency pul

I use retool a lot, you can "hack it" with js code in the frontend, eventhough i load a lot of the code on my backend apis.

i use this setup (besides using python fastapi code in the backend) and i really love it. Retool is awesome.

by lysecret 5y ago
i ended up with a fastapi (on lamdas) and retool as a frontend. I really like it.

That is a really good point. I spent some time putting ml equations into code and the code representation always seemed so much simpler to me. Many math equations seem a bit like too clever one liners in code haha

So I only do data engineering, backend APIs, Data Science and Machine Learning. And so many times i learned something about OOP, i go excited I implemented it and i ended up with a solution that was really complex and I re-implemented it us

there is no way to achieve this in Python right? I miss this from js.

This is a big trap to fall in to. I dont understand why network trafficking is so expencive also in AWS. I once had a 2k monthly bill purely from networking because i accidentally routed a lot of requests through a NAT. That hurt haha. Now

I mean it can only get better right?

Really interesting. I would argue that a lot of datapoints (maybe all) in fact do have a natural index. It is the fact if you are talking about Relational databases (every tables has a primary key). In a lot of scenarios it helped me a lot

Yea makes sense. I actually come from R and the deplyr world. Was really happy to read your article :). I might give siuba a try.

by lysecret 5y ago
yea I know what you mean. The main use I have found is something like. Say you have a price per company_id and per transaction_id. Now you have some function, which for the sake of it, takes it to an exponent. i used to write a lot of funct

I have been using indexes more and more if you do essentially series based operations but you need to re-associate the results back. It enables you to avoid using dataframes as inputs to your data transformations.

Hey regarding groupby operations in pandas. I have been moving more and more (for too complicated groupbys) to running them something like: out_rec = [] for id, group in data_frame.groupby("id"): ladidida.... r

I was always doing that using the python boto3 api. Just recently switched to API Gateway for some public endpoints and rest apis.

by lysecret 5y ago
good point. Also there is some competition with lambda like functions. So i hope it will get better and better:)

I wonder if the cold start will ever be fully fixed. Because most other services would seem to be made redundant then.
475.
by lysecret 5y ago
hehe, im just going the other way for a startup of mine. Were i started with ECS (aws cloud run basically) and now going to lambda. Bot for our usecase the cold start isnt such a big deal.

Honestly, the interview process being as broken as it is is one of the biggest opportunities for startups, or companies willing to take a risk to snatch up really good talent which is overlooked.

hehe I am halfway through Eleven Minutes. Really like it. Also I have read the Alchemist, but didn't like it too much. Do you have further recommendations ?:)

from an eagle eye point of view. A shortage always means, Demand is higher than supply and prices and or supply cant adjust quick enough. Price cant adjust: Long term contracts, regulation etc. Supply cant adjust: Move to newer chips (so es

Some early comments criticizing some kind of caricature of a know nothing business guy spewing marketing buzzwords. OK. I don't deny these people exists, and admittedly, I have a B2B point of view. But early, cold B2B sales is hell and

I like this way of putting it. For me I have seen it more as being understanding compared to judgmental. But I understand how you would put it as curious ;)
