Curious what companies these are or where you are seeing this data. This has not been what I have seen, I actually think leetcode is becoming more and more common in interviews. Just adding some of my own anecdata.
I was able to witness the 2017 eclipse under the path of totality and can confirm that animals really did act strange. Minutes before totality started, a black bear walked casually within 10 feet of me. I remember…
This article is pretty spot on. As someone who has worked in data science/analytics for over 6 years I have found that the field is filled with hype, managers who are not sure what data science actually is, and an…
I currently run analytic queries on a page view dataset around ~600 million rows on postgres. You can start by looking into partitioning by date. Also take a look at your IO on your queries. IO was the biggest…
To even use FMLA you must have worked for the employer for at least a year, at least one of the major restrictions. For example if you have your baby a couple days before your 1 year work anniversary and your employer…
Denver seems to pay very low, considering the cost of living these days. I think they refer to it as the "Denver Discount"
Desperate or naive people take these jobs, these people only exist where there are more job seekers than jobs. It is a chance for the desperate to finally gain that experience. Being indispensable is not possible in…
Don't invest into option contracts if you are not already familiar with them. They come with much more risk. But most all brokers offer them, even robinhood.
To be clear I was not trying to make fun of the OP. I frequently hear people say that they would invest if they had some certain amount of money. I always like to point out that there are plenty of ways to invest…
If you really believe in Tesla to bet big on them you do not need 100k. You can buy 4 $275.00 call contracts for approx 26k that expire in 2020. This would be equivalent to ~$110k worth of tesla stock. And if you are…
There are not as many data scientist jobs as the hype makes it seem. Maybe this will change in the future but right now there is not such a lack of qualified candidates to justify taking chances on lesser degree…
I don't think anyone doubts that the skills can be learned outside of school or fancy degrees. The problem is that there are hundreds of applicants in your situation WITHOUT experience. There are usually a couple of PHD…
When my company posted a data science job we received something like 300 applications on the first day. When looking at them most were people with no experience but a fresh degree or bootcamp grad plus all the other…
In my experience, candidates who have experience in dev work but could not pass our interview tests always end up in a dev role somewhere else shortly afterwards. Even some of them go on to find much more success.…
Yep, a lot of the people who want to get into it run away when they find out you need to know how to code and understand the math. For some reason there is this idea that it is easy money.
I have also found this interesting. What I don't understand is that the amount of data science jobs are no where near the levels that people make it seem. I am not sure where all these people will end up working if they…
It was my impression that any coin could be listed on certain exchanges if you pay the fee to do so. Depending on the exchange it could range from 50k to 1 million USD just to be added.
You have the choice to make online education useful, this would be the same in a traditional education as well. The only thing that matters between these two different approaches to learning is if you can create value…
You can do something but in many cases it can be a very long and tiring battle. There are a few people who thrive on rental fraud. They understand how the system works and repeatedly take advantage of landlords to…
Since the acquisition of Yhat by Alteryx (Yhat created Rodeo) the Rodeo project seems dead. Another good alternative is Spyder which offers a similar type of IDE and one that is still being developed.
A big difference between working in a coffee shop vs a library from what I have noticed is that a coffee shop is filled with people who appear to be somewhat similar to yourself, whereas a library seems to have a lot of…
I am convinced from my experiences doing DIY auto repair that the jobs themselves are all fairly simple, it is dealing with stuck bolts and bolts that are hard to get to which turn the job into hours of work and…
Having spoken to several students as well as looking at their GitHub projects from the galvanize data science program, I am fairly confident they cover those stats subjects in question. Not to say that a data science…
The stat questions you mentioned are all answered from a introductory modeling book or class. I am surprised those subjects are not even talked about in a data boot camp.
I would love to see some real data on this. I hear the blame for high real estate prices go to Chinese foreigners very frequently, yet I have never seen any real facts. This is what I see happening with real estate…
