Genetics?? Absolutely not. You need to have a feeling for the cultural context around some things to appreciate them. It also doesn’t take much work to refresh a song’s styling and execution to sound relatable.

If LeBron James dies and someone somehow has the rights to his likeness, they are not an agent however. They are the rights holder. Perhaps they coincidentally also have an agent doing the work, but it is not LeBron James’s agent. :)

Better to demand deeply personal information on all women rather than let a trans woman secretly compete in high school athletics with an unfair advantage right? God forbid we let someone play a sport with their peers.

Well if you’re Tom Cruise’s agent you get a commission for the work Tom Cruise does. Not his likeness.

You are cherry picking a dumb example. We don’t shit on paint when someone makes poop. What you should be cherry picking is examples of art that people would consider profound upon seeing it. Otherwise you’ll simply look like a dumbass when

I agree. Alyx was a lot of smoke and mirrors. I think it is the best VR has. But VR sucks. Alyx highlights 3 issues in combat. 1) you can’t move irl enough to dodge bullets. You can duck behind cover. But moving is hard. I also suspected so

I disagree. I don’t care much about what is profound. I think most of it is not. Things that we call profound are really just astute observations of patterns in the real world, and there’s nothing wrong with that. However profundity doesn’t

You can’t really look at numbers like that to paint a full picture. Net income in particular is sensitive to one time events. In this case, imo, it looks like the most important story is that revenue per user is falling hard. 17% more users

That datapoint is a forecast derived from many data points. You may not agree with the forecast, but the count is not persuasive.

I believe the fees get rationed out according to your listening. They don’t pay anything more if you listen to a song 10x vs 1000x. I’m not sure off the top of my head if that’s user level proportions or aggregate.

While I agree the garden walls should fall for integration, it seems very reasonable that teams would be a part of office, much like outlook. Chat and Video calls are increasingly a feature rather than a product. It would be crazy if they w

I recall reading studies that suggested it was not the quantity of time spent with parents but the quality that seemed to correlate with long term results. Provided the actual needs of the child were taken care of by someone.

With the availability of things like pyspark the grey zone between pandas scale and pyspark scale is small and uncommon though. Especially for the awkward tabular data manipulation tasks where you actually need to be mapping custom function

They are indeed small. But most real world problems operate on small data. And if it’s bigger you probably ought to be using a different toolset than Python altogether. In my experience it is exceedingly rare to find a situation where you h

I mean not writing your own loops. A built in function is indeed better. But usually not what you need. And also, readability > speed when the execution time is trivial, which is it probably should be for pandas scale data.

Series.map is vectorized. Pretty much everything you need in pandas is as performant as you ought to need for doing tabular data manipulation in Python. Except dataframe.apply
