SQL, Python tools such as Pandas, Rapids.ai (if you have a recent Nvidia GPU) and Talend are all good choices. If it is a small amount of data you can just use Python or Bash to pretty quickly accomplish what you need.

As someone who works in this space I see this from an alternative angle. Yes we use data like this in order to advertise to you, No Apple is no better than Google at how they approach this - they are just walling you further into their wall

I love stuff like this but I am massively put off by any database system that I need to "Load" into. There are so many amazing file formats now that can be queried directly as files - a 17H load time simply isnt feasible for much

VP Engineering / Head of Software is probably a good next step - some orgs have different paths but I would say seeing as you are focusing more on the actual engineering & product processes rather than tech strategy this is a senio

Absolutely agree! Also I think many of us have so many systems that either can't / won't support IPV6 that it is just way too much hassle vs private addreses & a NAT gateway!

What was the actual date on this? I assume it was wayyyy before 2014 haha. Imagine telling them back then that someone could fill out all the details on the website, choose their pizza and customise toppings AND have it delivered by a robot

Well unfortunately for Disney, my main TV box is an Ubuntu NUC so I will definitely not be subscribing to it. Just like when the NHL did the same - when there were better piracy options than your paid for service (which I might add I had no

I've always imagined for a while that eventually our phones will become our day to day "Grunt" for dumb workstations. I was hoping Linux on DeX would be the start of this. Samsung DeX by itself is still pretty cool, If I am j

I generally have one per user per server if its a Production machine, this is where ssh/.config really helps to keep things organised. This private key never leaves this device. If it is my own stuff I tend to just have one across most

One thing that no one has really mentioned so far is that unless your company has many remote / distributed workers you will likely be the easiest one to get rid of should the need arise. Companies like to be centralised mostly because

I'm unsure how - We were at WeWork for a couple of years and whilst the overally experience was fantastic we were paying probably a 10% premium in Australia for an office 20% of the size we could have got elsewhere. I think the experie

I think if a developer has nothing in the public domain nor can demonstrate some code they have written to you in person then that is the only time a code test is valid. I agree with many here - I have over 2 decades of experience writing c

I'm sorry but this is a shitty response from VLC: >The reporter is using Ubuntu 18.04, which is an old version of Ubuntu, and clearly has not all the updated libraries. 18.04 is an LTS version, many people (myself included) will be

I find it is much more frequent when you are mixing technical and non technical people in meetings. One such example is when you have a non-technical person taking the scenic route through a conversation about a process, by the time they ha

Great tool - do you have a docker image pre-made for this? This would be perfect to run directly off a NAS such as a QNAP so it is set and forget :)

Most people never have to deal with this though - I wonder what the % of these figures are things like Smart TV's and various other Android devices. For the most part it isn't a problem for us - we require Android 6+ and for the p
