This is an interesting approach - you're going out of your comfort zone yet making it productive for yourself and helpful for others. I've recently started something similar to push bad moods away - decided to work as a nurse in an isolated community. I won't do it for long, but I feel good useful.

Nice source you have there.
> - If you're already employed with your agriculture PhD, there must be a number of opportunities for you apply the techniques that you're currently learning wihout leaving the industry. That's probably the path that I would suggest - it would allow you to expand your skillset without taking big risks and you'll have more options in the future. Use the career capital that you already have and explore your options instead of making a sharp turn in your career direction that might leave you disappointed.

This is real gold. If you have existing knowledge about some area than you can learn and apply those things, thus you'll get the traction that you want earlier, and it would be more rewarding in the end.

If there is a chance, I won't miss that opportunity.
Good luck.
Why order out to some (probably unsafe) dark kitchen when I have a kitchen in my house?

In this covid times when I don't want to cook I simply go downstairs and order a take out from one of the tens of restaurants around, where I can get the same quality of a dine in at half the price while also supporting local businesses that are suffering.

Food delivery is overrated in my opinion and also unfair to workers.

The only reason I found to order from a delivery company is to skip the waiting line at McDonald's those rare times I feel like having junk food on a Sunday night while watching a movie and don't move from the couch.

But if I want a good pasta I simply order to the guy at the restaurant below my home from the window, don't even need to phone them, and they give me the food in a regular dish, not some lousy plastic wrap that I just return when I have time.

Yes. Twitter is fantastic only if you accept that you can’t have arguments on it. It’s just not a good idea. But not all conversation requires disagreement.

Also: I use Twitter as a news feed. I don’t tweet, just read. For me it’s the successor of rss.
Exactly, I often say: yes, this seems like a valid bug report but I am currently focusing on other things at the moment, though I will be happy to review and accept a pull request if you figured out how to solve your problem. I have yet to see an entitled reaction to that (maybe I am lucky though).

King Philip IV of France took a practical approach in dealing with a similar problem. [Two days ago], Friday the 13th, was the 713th anniversary of his solution to the thorny problem of sovreign conflicts with powerful transnational organizations. That is the day he smashed the Templars in France.

Philip tweeted: "Dieu n'est pas content, nous avons des ennemis de la foi dans le Royaume"

("God is not pleased. We have enemies of the faith in the kingdom")
It's the exact opposite for me.

On one side being home 24/7 gives me a lot more time to cook myself, on the other side going out to buy food finally makes sense, it's one of the few occasions I have now to go out and have a walk in the open.

One suggestion is to look for products that have an NSF approval. This in the US, this means the product is approved for use in a commercial kitchen. Amount other things Cleanabilty is requirement.

Yes, and no older people use it here in Sweden. I do not know anyone in Swden who uses voice messages.
> For FOSS stuff: I do want to know if anyone finds any bugs and how to reproduce them. Doesn't mean I'll fix them though. It only means that If I think I'll end up in a scenario where that applies (or I'm bored one day) I will fix it.

Also, your project is better off for having the bug reported, even if it's never fixed. Known bugs are less of a problem than unknown bugs, especially if clearly documented. With legacy systems, it might even be impractical to fix the bug, as other code may rely on the original buggy behaviour.
It's not too late, no, but can I ask- why are you intersted in a data scientist role? Is that the only, or best way to "get out of the lab" given your background?

Because I must confess that I don't see the immediate connection between an MSc and PhD in agriculture and a (assumingly generic) data scientist job. You should be perfectly capable of performing data science tasks in an agriculture context, but it seems to me you are asking for something different, a "pivot".

At the risk of sounding rude (for which I apologise in advance) are you asking simply whether there's still space on the current bandwagon? If so, I must advise you against it, because employment bandwagons are awful things to get on. Crodwed, badly paid, poorly understood, not that useful, scarcely productive- in short, short-term and not very fullfilling.

Is it just a matter of making lots and lots of money with the skills you clearly have and that you must have worked hard to acquire? Well then, there should be much, much better placements for you, outside the lab, in the sector you studied about.

My concern is that seeking to jump on the data science bandwagon right now will only flood industry with more and more semi-skilled, half-baked professionals, who don't really understand and don't really care to understand their subject matter, similar to what has happened with software development. The world is full of bad devs who are "passionate about javascript" or something like that and who are struggling to promote their personal brand because they have no other skills than the promotion of their personal brand. Don't allow yourself to fall that low.

Edit: in the interest of full discolosure, I'm a CS graduate with an MSc in data science and studying for a PhD in AI, but I'm not looking for data scientist jobs and am not interested in them, because I find them boring, unproductive and unfullfilling. I have actually worked as a (freelance) data scientist for a while.
I think the use of uvloop is reasonable, since it's not something domain specific to Redis.

I've worked at productionising data science models for the past 4 years. I'm currently responsible for delivering technology platforms to ~180 data scientists.

I find the data scientist label misleading.

Roughly 70% of of the data scientists I've encountered are actually Excel analysts with little experience outside of a Windows desktop bar Facebook on a Mac. They're unable to use basic software engineering tools such as git, vscode and python. Excel users and their managers are hostile to solutions that aren't excel-like. They will fist-fight you if you restrict them from downloading and exploring data on their computer. Few understand their compliance/legal obligations.

Another 20% are familiar with a wide range of tools - such as Matlab, R, Jupyter notebooks and various ML/AI toolsets. As developers they're unaware of the tech stack, short of "I installed ananconda and it doesn't work" but are happy to work in the cloud and learn new tech. They understand PII requirements and memory/cpu limits but don't always demonstrate the latter in practice. Nonetheless they produce the bulk of your analysis, having studied classification, and reasonably cost efficient if you pair with a SWE.

The final 10% have mastered containers, venvs, wheels, cloud sdks and how to configure their software in environment independent way. They require help to achieve production quality but are great self-starters. Given enough time and support they're able to quickly replicate this effort and teach others. As relative superstars they're in high demand which makes capacity planning difficult. This pushes up their premium.

IMO the best data scientists are 1 in 10. Because we're desperate for quality almost anyone can assume the title meaning the market open to new comers - you just need to be skilled in Excel (harder than it seems - most developers can learn a lot observing an analyst/consultant use Excel).

To answer your question: No - you're not too late. Just by posting here I expect you'll be in the top 30% - an asset in demand.

Always when management decides to attempt to replace $enterprise-solution with $foss-solution that cost "$0" I tell them:

* You need to maintain the system and manage the full life cycle
* You need testing
* You pay for all of the above
* There are very,very,very few world-case FOSS projects around (like: redis, clang, elasticsearch, linux, ...) that maintain themselves on an enterprise-quality level, so be prepared to upstream *a lot of bugfixes yourself*
* Where there's no money there's no priority

Fourier transform is so fundamental to understanding the world and mastering Fourier transform (and linear algebra too) is so sooo important before entering anything "quantum". Quantum field theory (QFT), especially, is essentially a way to look at the world through its Fourier transform.

In a nutshell Fourier transform, the derivative operator, exponential function and CAUSALITY are related at a very deep level. And that's why it's such an important mathematical tool. Because it is related to causality.

but once it's done, what's the imperative for change

If it's truly done there's no reason for change. However getting there, to what for us is the most optimal configuration, is what was the main incentive for me. The way it is now it requires almost no ahead planning. I.e. for most rooms we had no idea on beforehand how we were going to pupulate them with furniture and which activity we'd do where, so I just went 'cable for lighting in the center, at the side on each wall, and some extra' and then put the switches in sensible places i.e. usually next to room entrance. Then during the next years hook up as needed and adapt if needed. E.g. couple of months ago we needed an extra desk for working form home and one extra for my GF's new hobby, so we just put some desks to a wall and instantly can get a light above it. With a fixed configuration you'd either need to think of that in advance, or use the light centrally in the room which makes you sit in your own shadow. or add lights you just plug in the wall socket but that's extra cable, and especially for desks it's hard to find a suitable one. Also throughout the years I've made small changes here and there to change things like being able to turn on the light in the bathroom from the bedroom, or turn on light in the kitchen from the place where we eat so you don't have to look for th kitchen switch in the dark. Sure those are just nice-to-haves but pretty convenient. I've been and lived in quite a lot of houses where the whole configuration was pretty akward. Though I get some people don't care about that.
Same experience here, Philips (and other Zigbee lights like IKEA) did a great job.

Only problem I had with the Philips hub is that it's memory limited and can't handle more than about 50 devices. Above that you need to replace the hub with something like Home Assistant, but can keep the rest of the system.

An alternative approach might be to create a way for the community of folks using the software to help each other, you might even get some users turn into contributors that way. This is how the user support for Linux distros works. For Debian at least, I have seen some of the more advanced users in the support channels move up to maintaining packages as a result of the support channel existing.

GitHub now has a discussions feature that could be used for this. Perhaps the right approach might be to open discussions for all GitHub users, open issues solely for project admins/maintainers and open PRs for all GitHub users. Folks who want to provide support can look at the discussions tab, reformulate valid bugs into issues and then maintainers/developers can turn those into patches.

Yes but if to achieve good performance in Python you have to implement all the domain specific code (in this case the redis protocol) in C then you:

a) aren't writing Python

b) invalidates all of the points for writing in Python. i.e speed of implementation, etc.
That was wrong one. This looks better:

>> [block early, block often]
> Doesn't that just reinforce the echo chamber?

No, I think there's a big difference between an echo chamber constructed by algorithms that push content upon you without your consent or knowledge, and an "echo chamber" constructed by yourself when you actively curate and trim the media you consume.

You and your wife's suggestions are really good ideas, but for them to be effective, it's essential that you exercise control over what hits your eyeballs. Twitter, in particular, is a hot mess. I use the "muted words" feature to filter out tweets that contain words that raise my blood pressure, it's now well over 200 words since late 2016. Is that a making a bubble? Perhaps, but I've found it's better to engage with that subject matter in a time and context of my own choosing rather than having it dropped into "my feed".
What I mean is I think I prefer them even if I were technically set up to use my phone or a remote - they'd never be in the right place so I'd have to get up anyway.

(And in this case the (dumb) switches on the wall have always been in the right place, by the bed, in my bedrooms. (In addition to one by the door of course.))

I'd just have 'the system' 'aware' of the switches and current state etc. so that I could have certain automations, logging, etc.

The physical switches would either be network inputs themselves (easier implementation but reliability concern) or just report events but be electrically connected to the light still; I suppose also light-side state reporting for ultimate reliability (against missed switch events that did change light state because of electrical connection).

But a cup of water heated to the boiling point would long have cooled off by the 2 hours, so would this still count then?
I agree. I don't envy the position these platforms were put in. The platforms already had policies, but those did not foresee a time when the POTUS would act this way. When someone on the platform with the reach and power of POTUS says things that are objectively false (and potentially dangerous), how should those be handled? I'm not talking about dissenting opinions or a favorable way to look at a topic, but the equivalent of 1+1=3.

There was this ideal of the internet with information being freely distributed and available, that people would seek out truth. What we have seen though is that large groups of people just believe whoever has the bigger microphone.
The problem I see with allowing PRs but not issues (or locking the reporting of them behind a paywall) would be that there is no way for someone to discuss possible implementation details without having already potentially have gone down the "wrong" path and wasted time (i.e. Maintainer won't accept the PR without a significant rewrite), or spent money to discuss it when they already plan to contribute time and code to solve their own use case.
2019 laptop sales are 9.3% of laptop sales for years 2010-2019 (https://www.statista.com/statistics/272595/global-shipments-...). The phrase "Faster than 98% of PC laptops" in itself is very general, an it's fair to assume that it's e.g. all laptops currently in use, or ever made - in part since this is a sales pitch, rather than a technical specification item. If we add 1990-2009 laptops to the statistic above, the share of purportedly modern laptops will just shrink, and substantially at that.

Then you have to add on top of that the consideration of what are the laptops people are actually buying and using. I can assure you that neither enterprise clients nor everyone outside of select, relatively spoiled, group people concentrated in just a few areas are regularly buying top of the line workstation or gaming laptops.
