> Python offers more intuitive memory management than R (which is really more a statement on how bad R is at memory efficiency). I haven't found that to be the case. Loading a 2gb CSV file when you have 8gb of ram is touch and go wi

The best one I've tried is the Nilkin brand. As to the Apple pencil, I'm on ~9 months of use and the nib feels the same as the spare that came in the box when I got the pencil so I don't have reason to believe its damaging it

I didn't know about this before I bought an iPad. I recently added a paper-textured screen protector (similar to Paperlike) and now I can't stop using it. I really recommend it for those who have an Apple Pencil - its great

Add to this the meta-problem this creates. Right now, there's trust in the industry to not cut corners which is one of the reasons so many choose to fly. If that trust erodes (even slightly) it is difficult to gauge what the impact wou

I'm so used to using data.table to import data I forgot this was still a thing

I try to imagine the counter-scenario where leaders had done the correct thing but because they did the right thing and a spread never occurred we collectively boot them out of office because nothing bad happened and criticize them for &#x2

I've tried it for modeling tasks but I struggled with the sort of basic data manipulation that can be done within pandas/data.table. I can quite comfortably work with 100-million line CSVs using data.table on a standard laptop but
