Just curious, what would you consider, "absurdly small amounts of data around using big data tools like spark" and what do you recommend instead? I recently worked on some data pipelines with Databricks notebooks ala…
Sorry, that's the point I was making to which I may have got off track. Marriage can't be ended by one party "calling it quits on frivolous grounds" because its a legal contract between two people. Both parties must…
Divorce is a legal procedure to dissolve a legal union; local rules vary, but while it can be accomplished without standing in court, in the US at least the terms of the dissolution must still be documented and--even if…
When I get frustrated enough to consider putting a kill switch in my work, I cool off by reminding myself that would prompt them to make a huge effort recovering from backups and have someone go through my code to get…
There are almost certainly different approaches depending on the environment and situation. But, especially if this is a "culture" problem one of the best fixes I've found is to make shorter meetings with a defined…
In a college chemistry lab we would have to write lab reports of our work. The instructor made it very clear that he has never given 100% on a lab reports because there's always something to improve. A one of my CS…
Is this even new for "lifetime"? A "lifetime warranty" often refers to the "lifetime" of the product, not your lifetime or the expected lifetime of any person. In that sense, T-Mobile has played this pretty straight.…
Physical attributes are easy to recognize, so if these weigh heavily in your expectations, you can more rapidly estimate the distribution. Being able to do this quickly also means you can break out populations to make…
It's not for lack of trying. People just get a little touchy about putting us in control of anything.
Reading about aphantasia was a trip. I couldn't even understand it at first, so curious if this condition fit me I looked up the test for diagnosing aphantasia which started describe scenes of a beach, now with a…
I've been involved in a product review at my work. The tool hits a sweet spot of identifying a real problem and demoing impressively. I have little doubt we will purchase this tool unless the beancounters simply reject…
Yeah, I get it. There's a lot of complexity. I considered including something about "when the author has explicitly said not to release it" which draws up even more complexity in this case because the children argued…
I heard about this on NPR this morning (which is looks like someone already posted the link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39633900), and it sounds like the sons justification was that the book was good and the…

I don't have a problem so much with the touch screen itself. It's a waste for a lot a things and I frequently just turn my screen off, but it is nice to be able to bring up a map with directions and arrival estimates.…
I've found the problem with transparency and any sort of acknowledgement of problems in business, is that there too many other people whoa are all too willing to say, "We're awesome, just leave it to us!" And these are…

I've often wondered how different things would be if producers and manufacturers were required to pay for any waste they generated from their products, at no additional cost to the consumer. Individually wrapped candies…
That's fine for a well establish course and curriculum, where its pretty well known where the students are at (or should be) and the material is presented in a consistent manner that has successfully filtered the…
Doesn't it need some clever acronym so politicians can talk about their DoesntMeanWhatYouThink Act? Humans Own Unsupported Software and Electronics (HOUSE) Act perhaps?

You're assuming the objective was to develop a functioning program on the Pi. But what if the Pi was only ever meant as a story-telling device to get the students thinking about the kinds of things computer programs can…
No, the argument is, "It's not cheating because it wasn't a programming assignment."
