O thats great. So just weirdly worded on the docs / I didn't understand. Thanks!

This might be overboard for most projects but here is what I recently did. There is a website I use heavily that provides sales data for a specific type of products. I actually e-mailed to make sure this was allowed because they took down t

I don't think so. From their docs: > This section describe the scripts or executable that will be installed when installing the package I want something such that I can run `poetry run script_name` and it will run that command line

I just started up a project using this. It’s pretty good so far. The documentation on common tasks is a little bit lacking. VS Code integration is sort of broken in a few random ways (for example if I try and do a find all function definiti

I think its primarily the "limited" number produced, which created the market and brought resellers. There wasn't a huge secondary market when Jordan came out, they had to build a brand etc. Eventually there was more demand t

Totally agreed. It’s the classic “hiring people to wait in line for you” solution. Eh I don’t think surge pricing should be put anywhere near this problem and it’s certainly not economically efficient in the classic sense, that is creating

But unfortunately there are a limited number of per day delivery slots, so bots will own anything FIFO. They will monitor the page and be the first ones in. There also aren’t really fully standardized addresses per se, it’s actually kinda w

Web queues are ineffective as shown by sneaker bots. You’d need actual ID style authentication of accounts. If you’re talking about order queues than people will stuff the queue and cancel their orders or just have more hoarding if their mu

+1. The Jackson book is notoriously difficult. I think Griffith's book might be better for a self-learner but, iirc, and I haven't read the book in more than 10 years now, he expects a pretty good understanding of applied calculus

Yogurt contains probiotics so I'm assuming that is the niche he is talking about, i.e, fermented foods. Also I think a lot of the world does eat yogurt. It is very common in US, Canada, Australia, Europe and Asia. I'm not sure abo

Yes it wouldn’t eliminate them. The processes that create them would have to be changed or reformed in some way. The bullshit jobs/UBI argument is more about filling in if/when these jobs are eliminated, that be via automation or

I don’t think I’ve said all jobs will be rockstar you’re the boss type of jobs, but there are certainly a huge amount of inefficiencies in lots of business. I think asking people if they feel like their work is needed or could be automated

A lot of work today is pretty much bullshit/meaningless; I mean look at 85% of the US insurance / medical billing professions are useless and only exist because there is manufactured bureaucracy. Bullshit Jobs is a great book look

I'd much prefer there be more detail in the article about AI research in drug discovery, how it still needs clinical trials in humans. I agree with the sub-comment as well. I think your last question doesn't make sense to me thoug

I totally agree, and I think my comment could be summarized as such from another angle. I think the recent Coronavirus + AI = cure spam has me a little jaded. I'll add this, this paper is really well done and like I said I really hope

That is sort of the thing about receptors, it is really had to know what will actually work. When you run these types of programs you'll get a number of possibilities that the simulator will spit out, that be from an AI or more traditi

People have been doing this exact thing for two decades at least but obviously with less computing power. There's literally nothing new about the idea. The real trick is being incredibly lucky and finding something that actually works

I’m a bit older than average and these types of things and noises drive me crazy. I can’t even be near some old CRT screens due to the pitch they emit (especially bad with old CCTV monitors).

I’ve had to wait to see endocrinologists about 6 months at multiple practices while having very good insurance in the US. It’s mostly a location and a supply and demand issue with most specialist medical professions, not an insurance issue

It’s a hobby like anything else. Why do people prefer stick/manual to automatic? Same thing imo. It’s just a little more “real” and involved with a hobbyist setup. I do enjoy the sound a little bit better but also the mastering is ofte

I took a Unix half credit course randomly where you basically did bash scripting, a huge bunch of command line tools and then eventually use all that to build your own linux distribution. I swear I learned more in the half credit class, and
