Oh that explains why. Fansubs have gotten worse because they're just ripping the professional subs.

>The fansub quantity, for sure, has decreased, but not the quality. Speedsubs are no longer a concern for fansubbing these days. That's exactly why the quality has gone down, due to these speed subs. Back in the day speed subs were

On modern day Intel cpus (no idea on AMD's side) math using longs is faster than math using floats. ymmv depending on architecture. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2550281/floating-point-v... Floats were

Most NES games had a way of saving, except the earliest NES games. Most of them had codes you'd type in that was a save point. Many had actual save states on the cartridge. The earlier games got around not having a code by having a se

You really want to go to private trackers to get quality over quantity. I'd share public sites, but I'm not sure if it breaks the rules.

When it comes to case law, they have to show intent, and the way they do that is they have to show their software is used for more than just piracy. So, eg, if it's generic torrent tracker software, it's fine, because anyone can u

It's a bit absurd going off of speed runs is a way to accurately identify a game's normal play length. I think all the games I had were 60+ hours, but I just liked JRPGs more than most genres. FFVIII was picked not only because it

Is that why games have gotten shorter? I'm from the NES - PS1 era of gaming where games would regularly take 60+ hours to play through. FFVII is still one of my all time favorites and is a good example of that. I think the first real

Black Scholes is a reasonably good way to estimate the value of an options contract, which is fine for floating point. Anything / just about anything that is macro (to the larger system) is fine with floating point. But for actual sim

An instructor is not a professor. When I was in junior high, high school, and at college, I taught a lecture or two regularly. I was no teacher or professor, but I was a lecturer / instructor, while I was going to school. It says no

Is this using floating point numbers under the hood? There is a lot you can do with floating point, but for some of what I've worked on you really do want fixed precision types.

The article doesn't say she was a professor, so it's hard to say. It really is a garbage article. As far as I can tell everything in the article is hearsay, which doesn't help. Even the evidence is based off of hearsay. &g

It could be slander, because unfortunately the daily mail has a history of making up garbage. Getting fired from a university, getting called in to a psych ward to make sure she was okay, and then immediately after being let go is pretty ir

My job title is data scientist, just as hers was. It's far less of a catch all title than the job title software engineer is. There are so many different kinds of software engineers, but only a few kinds of data scientists. Of the k

Oh shiny! As a data scientist who currently is in Pandas day-to-day, under the hood it uses BLAS (and I think LAPACK) which should give some nice acceleration benefits when working with larger dataframes on Apple's M series chips.

I do, because the results from my research varies when I'm validating the model.

I'm confused, do you want to become a data engineer or a data scientist? A data scientist is a type of senior data analyst. Data engineering is farther away to a data scientist than a data analyst is. I'm going to answer both qu

That's a really good point. I tend to be seen as a product lead / owner / stakeholder, so I feel like I'm being called out. lol I think one difference is the software engineers see me as someone who is helping them by m

Quant research work isn't data science work which is probably where the mix up is. On the quant side bonuses are distributed to the team.

Fixed precision types technically. Internally they are an int under the hood, so yah basically that.

Most libraries load entire notebooks from top to bottom when executing, and I believe papermill does too. (Please correct me if I'm wrong, as I've not used papermill.) This is great for making a dashboard, a report, or some other
