This is an interesting glimpse into the mindset of feds.

Underscored the old saying that the police are never there to help you.

zOS reboot, duh!

Kidding aside, nothing about this is good for the open source movement.

Gotta have my /sipps/ tho.

I'm actually curious now if the 30 year old boomer meme is in any way an outgrowth of the Iraq war. The aesthetic the meme embraces reminds me a lot of the guys I knew my age and older who served. Gonna have to reflect on this a bit.

Several years ago I remember reading on stack overflow about how someone had managed to rm the ls program on a Linux system. Your anecdote reminded me of the fix. I’ll do some googling and see if I can find it. If I can, I’ll post it here.

Hats off to people like you. You’re what we mere mortals aspire to, and it’s always encouraging to hear that someone else has attained a level of mastery. Makes it seem more achievable!

The more interesting question is what are you going to do about it?

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

No, terry, the CIA didn’t exist yet.

Good times create weak men etc. etc.

One of the things that makes lead (and all heavy metals) so dangerous is the body lacks a mechanism to effectively clear it.

So if the only factor in aggression is the amount of lead in the body, then we would have to assume it takes time for the symptoms to subside as well.

How much is David Brock paying you to post this? Can you tell him I'll post things here for money too?

You obviously live in inflated-margin land. I'm going to guess NY, SF, CS, or greater Denver (maybe austin) or worse, Academia.

Startups don't work this way in heavy industry, especially when jobs are on the line.

I envy you, actually.

Surprisingly, I'm okay with this.

Labster, what's going on, big guy?

Your outlook on the human prerogative for mastery of his environment is absolutely fascinating to me.

I TA'd for a course in grad school that used your product.

I was very impressed with the quality!

It's been implemented to some degree by Cliff Stoll for his klein bottle business. Or rather, he started a warehouse in his crawlspace. Same difference...

Careful or you'll have everyone in this thread screaming about blue beams.

I'll second the other child comment and wish you good luck.

I'll also tell you to check out overleaf--it does most of this in a browser, so you have the collaborative aspect if you need it.

Maybe in clownworld.

We usually just send .ipynb files around because of the stuff we do, we all usually have the same libraries.

Installing a notebook server is an option though. IBM will be happy to let you pay to have them help, or you can do it the sane way with continuum analytics.

>In practice what I've seen is that IT and finance departments don't even let business analysts write their own SQL queries for fear that they'll write bad ones that bring the database server to its knees

I'll take data warehouses for 600, Alex.

>its simply not as useful for adhoc data analysis and reporting.

<rant>

You wanna know what's even more useful? Code notebooks.

I store everything from my sql queries to my processing pipeline to my models, and my vizualizations. Most notebooks have slide-show modes now so your presentation to business stakeholders is simple to prepare as well, and with the right plotting packages you can draw interactive charts that do all the fancy stuff. And when it's time to update the analysis, you just re-run the notebook.

But business analysts are too freaking lazy to just learn to write some python or R, and they're perfectly happy to get paid to do the same task over and over again when it comes time to making updates.

And don't get me started on source control.

What if you trained it on footage from the real world? I didn't see anything in the article that stated the AI needed any sort of feedback from interactive controls...

Why this story, and why right now?

Think!

No, they can do it with inner springs now too.

That tech is relatively new.

Never underestimate a good prior! :-)

Watermelon makes my teeth itch. I don't know how else to describe it.

I think strawberries are the closest I have to your watermelon.

It's interesting to me that you find celery tasteless. I can't stand the flavor myself but I'll eat Brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower all day long.

Not to mention wasabi, horseradish and other pungent foods.

Can I ask how you feel about garlic?
