Alright I'll bite... $49 is some cheap entertainment and I'm totally intrigued at this point! My only fear at this point is that it's completely legit and someone actually thinks this is a good business. Subscription confirma

The Soundcloud track at the bottom is even more intriguing. In the footer it has my location and weather displayed too... even creepier (I turned off ublock to see if there was other stuff on this page).

I'm curious how this affects file sizes? I like my static binaries and portability, but I fear this would make things balloon quite a bit to get the same broad distribution. I've been planning on using an embedded webkit + html ap

Stored Procedures have been around for a long time, so it's very easy to put some business logic closer to your database without resorting to the level of integration suggested by the post.

I really disagree with this - separation of concerns is incredibly important. Why does the database server need to do everything my application server does now? I don't want to have to know about how my database works internally just t

We are working on this from another angle - sequencing plants to map out nutrient biosynthesis pathways. Then determining how those nutrients affect human health. With that info we can start doing "personalized nutrition" such as

Wasn't the Informix Database effectively an operating system? I'm sure it wasn't the only one. This paper makes it sound like they're the only one.

I hope this is in the latest Keynote or coming very soon - it's my biggest issue right now when prepping slides for my classes.

I made a similar comment on the reddit post. This seems like something handled better by interfaces. In my experience, whenever I end up writing a large type switch on an interface I take it as a code smell. All those cases should be an int

This looks amazing. I'm especially curious how well it will work at identifying Gene/chemical nomenclature since it is fairly consistent like English spelling. For named entity recognition in biomedical text this could be really u

I looked into getting a HSAs through my consulting LLC last year due to the tax benefits, but my current (day job) employer plan includes a mandatory HRA. From what I could find at the time, I wouldn't qualify for this, right? Do you h

There's a hand-wavy footnote about recruiters not being able to divide by number of connections for every search result candidate, but I still think this would be a much more meaningful metric. I'm willing to bet the good recruite

I remember spending many hours browsing dA back way back when. There are so many art/design/etc communities now that I'm sure it's getting more difficult to retain users.

bootstrapping does not require any munging.

by pbnjay 10y ago
TBH, I haven't used python for science in a few years, so maybe numpy is the norm now and I'm showing my age. But when I was doing more python, I wrote bootstrapping, monte carlo and CI code without anything but the standard lib.

It's a nice wrapper on a powerful technique. Could be very useful to some folks - but requiring numpy and pandas is kind of excessive.

This looks really interesting. I will play around with it, but I'm curious if there's any sense of how much this would add to an existing command-line tool? For example if all I want to do is get an upspin file, make changes, and

That's a good idea - It would be fairly easy to add to the main settings, but then allowing per-project rates would require a few more UI updates. Happy to add better support for this type of usage! I generally don't bill hourly,
