I'm a little concerned about using IEA model analysis to address the question of timing, as these models do try to hit timing but in reality are still very uncertain that any analysis based on the timing is fun to talk…
Don't sell your potential customers too short. We've outsourced analysis to be done with ERA5 dataset to an external vendor. There are many who know what to do and can do it themselves, but would rather outsource for…
Water Resources Engineering PhD (focus on climate change) and now in consulting for F100 companies. I'm probably the type of people you're looking to pay for this. I love this as a product. I've used similar…
Well it's partially the cost/benefit analysis of: 1. How much benefit will we get? 2. Will this benefit be higher than the cost of purchasing this right now? 3. What other alternatives will satisfy our needs? For most…
You can rent cluster access (to an extent) using Azure Batch. Granted it's probably not at this scale, but it gives you access to a ton of resources.
I'm still new to Clubhouse as well but my understanding of the ecosystem is that it's a lot more interactive than just a "live podcast" as there's ability for more audience engagement, community interviews, and…
I see your point and that's up to you. But I do think factoring in the end user's experience is important here if you want them to listen to your argument. You're trying to sell someone that your idea is right, but…
Graduate school is tough. Burnout is very possible. People come in thinking that it's basically continuation of undergrad (being asked "are you still in school? How's that going?"). It's a battle of endurance, not wits…
How decent is Brave as a browser? I've been very hesitant on it as a primary browser due to them starting up their own cryptocurrency (BAT), adding automatic affiliate cryptocurrency links in pages, and a history of…
The concept is interesting and creative but I also think it's just repackaging the problem it's trying to address but using a different element as the datum. This adds an additional step where you have to translate N:45…
His youtube channel started out as him just rambling to the camera about his problems and how absurd it is. It's grown since then as people have been following it. His channel is basically that, him talking to the…
This is very fascinating and great. I mean this dataset has been available for a while know (from what I recall), but re-packaged and organized in this manner would be very useful. One thing that really stands out to me…
I agree with this comment. I don't understand what specifically makes this a "system approach".
I've always been a big fan of R Markdown. For me and my work, there's always been a fine line between R Markdown and R Shiny, with certain limitations (or something I felt was a limitation) in R Markdown could be…
Hey Dustin, Glad you've already working with some people in academia! I'm familiar with UW's Civil Engineering department and they have some great faculty members there who are very competent in what they do. That's…
Interesting! Out of curiosity, how would this work in regards to the character limitations (160 characters I think?) in SMS? What if they're large responses? Is there a hard limit on the total number of text messages…
Hi Dustin! I saw your work on Hacker News last year and I forwarded it to a colleague of mine working in the academic side of Transportation Engineering. They found your work interesting and complemented on your…
Similar boat as you. I bought the Pixel 2 XL and am still rocking it to this day. I just happen to be living in the States. I think I'll be going for the 5, but the 4a does give me a pause. If I use it for another 3…
Excited about this!
It's Delimiter, wasn't it? They weren't a very good hosting organization to begin with, but you get what you pay for.
Have you guys coordinated with some of the other agencies out there? I'm a big fan and supporter of the Thriving Earth Exchange and part of their goals is to help with citizen science as well as education.
I was one of the early subscribers of Opps Daily! I loved the idea originally when it came up but after a while, the daily emails got a bit much. I believe I suggested a weekly version/aggregate over a daily email…
There is definitely a market, but I'd say it's a difficult nut to crack. You first want to do a quick cost-benefit-analysis first to make sure you're making an informed decision. We won't be factoring privacy, working…
I agree. But I'd also argue that it's based on how you're using the tools you're given (or what others have given you). Pretty much the argument of using apply vs for loops. Most of the time, apply is going to be…
I use R on a daily level. A significant portion of our climate change adaptation research code and decision planning systems (which are used in various utilities around the world to support decision makers) are built…
