Authenticity is important. Praising effort because you read it improves outcomes, even if you internally don’t think it’s praiseworthy, would be inauthentic and eventually degrade your relationship in my opinion.…
Cali EDD is a joke. I never received my paid family leave money after my daughter was born last year. Their phone lines are always full, and they don’t respond to email.
Yes the go version takes way longer materialize our configs compared at my work compared to sJsonnet (from Databricks). The first time you switch it adds (or removes? I forget) a bunch of newlines at the end of files…
I do agree with you that the bank will likely not collapse with help from the big banks. But business wise it is not in a great position with lots of low interest rate loans. Still, I would expect some recovery in the…
I thought propublica was for hard hitting investigations on big issues of public importance? Who cares about fake badges on social media?
And some people trust it without a second thought. This past New Years there was a huge snow storm in the Tahoe area, many roads were closed, and clueless Bay Area people were following google maps directions around the…
You should finish the masters, and meanwhile get an internship for the real world experience you crave.
I’m similar to you in this aspect. Some of my friends have taken advantage of remote work to go travel and work at the same time. I hate that idea. Would much rather be productive and focused at home, then totally…
I get that it is very tempting. We all want to do anything that could help our kids. However, there are also an endless number of things people are selling to new parents that prey on that reflex. I truly don’t know the…
My wife is 33 weeks pregnant with our first. We plan to donate our baby’s cord blood to research. Cool to think it could help researchers develop treatments like this in some small way!
I agree, no problems in the real world are solved. I guess that’s where all the meta verse nonsense comes into play.
The problem is we train way more PhDs than there are tenure track positions available. Most PhDs won’t be lucky enough to get one of those academic positions, and a postdoc is just delaying the inevitable transition to…
I’m sure they’re working on it. Databricks, however, also has Delta Live Tables coming out soon I believe.
Anyone remember StumbleUpon? You could easily edit your interests and get different types of content. It was the pinnacle.
One of my favorite things to do is explore a foreign city with a recent Lonely Plant book to guide me. I think there’s something fantastic about that experience that can’t be replicated by an app or website. When I’m…
Revenge against the finance nerds. If the finance nerds bought companies made by tech nerds they’d be fine.
I studied these a bit during my PhD. The focus of my research was gravitational wave (GW) astronomy which involves incredibly sensitive instrumentation. The history of GWs before 2015 contained notoriously dubious…
The number of detected events depend on the volume of space surveyed. So, for some increase in detector sensitivity x you get x^3 more events, roughly speaking. We’re just getting better at detecting them.
1. The frequency evolution of the measures waveform depends on the mass of the objects. Once you know the mass you can use the amplitude to infer the distance. 2. Galaxies do contain supermassive black holes at their…
