I've never used Ansible. Is it worth using for just this workflow? I'm asking coming from a baseline of just having a Git-versioned shell script which has lines like brew install coreutils and whathaveyou.

Yes, but in addition to the one at home we also have to buy a separate one to sit in the nurse's office all year. Also, if the before/after school program doesn't have access to the nurse's office, we have yet another o

I've had good luck with this with simple variables and native data structures list lists, dictionaries, tuples. But when I try it with something bulkier like a Pandas dataframe, I'm not able to make any sense of the stack and fin

I gave a talk on using Google BERT for financial services problems at a machine learning conference in early 2019. During my preparation, this was the only resource on transformers I could find that was even remotely understandable to me.

I once worked under someone who felt strongly about us importing modules instead of classes. So instead of from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import TfidfVectorizer tfidf = TfidfVectorizer() we were told to change it to

I got what you described by learning Common Lisp just a few months ago. Do you think learning Clojure would get me something in addition to that or is it roughly the same?

Would you be willing to make a way that lets users try it without making an account? Or at the very least, make an account with an email address? Right now, I can't find a way to do anything without logging in with a Google account,

I am curious how getting rid of Slack at a small company plays out in practice. Do people now just text each other on their personal phones? Or do they send emails to each other many times a day? How does someone ask "Hey, are you s

I kind of figured I was approaching this wrong. If that approach was useful, I would have found someone already implemented it. One silly hangup I have is I am more comfortable in Vim than Emacs, and I am trying to isolate my learning to

Yes, I was directly typing in the REPL. I think Slimv may have been the thing I'm missing. When I'm back to my laptop I will give it a shot. Thanks!

One place I get stuck all the time with Common Lisp is the REPL. I'm used to IPython, which allows me to enter multiple lines and execute them all at once, then go "up" and get all those lines back and change something to fi
