I have been called a "serious #DataScientist", truth is that I love playing with all kinds of data, first and foremost with #Biological #Data. Now doing my magic in a #Biotech / #Pharma start-up.
I used to be a wet lab scientist. I will always be a foodie fueled by Espresso.
#rstats first but whatever tool gets the job done including #bash, #python. #linux user.
A friend and I built mcsprit.de, a website to see real time gasoline prices in Germany.
A few years ago, we applied to the German cartel office, which provides an API for this data.
We intend to have some fun with time series prediction models.
It's wild how frequently petrol stations change their prices. But there's a piece of legislation under discussion to reduce the number of price changes per day 🤞
Microsoft Teams is experiencing issues, with thousands reporting problems sending messages, including delays 🤣
Gotta hand it to Apple, the M-series macbooks are really amazing hardware: but they only reach perfection with #NixOS on them!
@brodriguesco @kupac how easy was it to install Linux on it? I know it's NIXos, but close enough :)
Possible a new record for me;
CRAN submission of {futureverse} took just six (6) minutes from start to finish 👏
(it's a package with no reverse dependencies) #RStats
@Lluis_Revilla it says "using generative AI to enhance the CRAN checks". Are you saying this is wrong?
Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵 Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...
yeah i hate this. pay your fucking staff properly, and incorporate that into the price of the service.
@xgranade beating motherfuckers over the head with this MP4 until the end of time
@schenklklopfer ich hab letztens was ähnliches überlegt. Aber habe mich dann erstmal dagegen entschieden. Einerseits weil das offizielle Angebot für meine Produktiv-Anwendung eines Kunden sicherer ist und weil ich mich auch gewundert habe, ob es nicht eingeschränkt wird in irgendeiner Form. Aber offenbar haben das schon einige erfolgreich gemacht: https://github.com/legout/sbox-s3
Day 20: Performance Testing with bench
Profile and benchmark your package functions.
Basic benchmarking:
results <- bench::mark(
old_approach = old_function(data),
new_approach = new_function(data),
check = FALSE, # Skip result equality check
iterations = 100
)
plot(results)
Pro Tip: Include benchmarks in your test suite to catch performance regressions.

Statt 1TB #S3 Speicher bei #Hetzner für ~6€/Monat zu mieten vielleicht 1TB #StorageBox für ~4€/Monat bei Hetzner mieten, via SMB in einen Server mounten und per Garage oder so als S3 bereitstellen?
Ich meine wie schlimm kann das werden?
Ich fürchte zwar die Antwort ist "JA", aber hats schon mal wer versucht?

@pgreer this was not the vibe I got from the article. The author mentions clearly:
> Now obviously, the reason a large language model focused on coding is good at Javascript and C++ is precisely because it has been trained on billions of lines of code in those languages along with countless forum posts, StackOverflow debates, and so on.
So they know what is going on. What they posit, to their sadness, is at some points LLMs might be trained on so many prompts that a VOPL might emerge.
@kupac @keyboardpipette (I am in that toot and feel seen!)
Seriously, been using foldable keyboards and Palm PDAs similarly.
(I love the 4 part W-shaped ThinkOutside. Later they also made Bluetooth and USB ones, and I am still using those to this day)
