This looks awesome. Probably really good for a financial dashboard. I'm trying to use Plotly Dash to mimic an invoice that'll have a few line items for our products. My data is updated monthly.
I'm a data analyst/engineer and I'm not very good at visualisations as they haven't been that important at my jobs. I know it sounds a bit weird. Recently I've been trying to make a Plotly-Dash report/webtool that will enable bidirectional flow of data. So far I haven't been able to get plotly running on Jupyter. The examples I've seen so far have been amazing. I wish I could make it work. Hopefully the latest version will help me produce plots inside Jupyter notebook for testing purposes.
"Chinese vice-minister of State Security, Dong Jingwei, has reportedly defected to the US and given information about the Wuhan Institute of Virology which is at the centre of the COVID-19 lab leak theory."
Controversial opinion here! I don't think people who use languages like Julia/R/Python etc worry about most of the computer science side of things. Most of them are data scientists/analysts, statisticians and from pure sciences. Primarily because the availability of wide range of libraries that makes their lives a lot easier. Also many aren't too concerned about performance of the language either. It's indeed fascinating that the author's first language was Julia. It'd be interesting to know why the author chose Julia as the first language.
No. You're right. I'm responsible for my comments and in hindsight a few of those were a bit emotionally driven rather than being objective. But I've been downvoted on my factual comments during Asian business hours and only to rise to positive number the following day during Australian hours. I wasn't trying to see how much karma I'd earned. I just happened to notice this trend on a couple of my comments. It's purely anecdotal and I've no data to prove that it's in fact the general case. I don't know how much fact there is to the Huawei case but the secretive govt that CCP is, I'd be very careful about using their services. I don't want my data ending up in their servers to feed into their algorithms.
What a horrible life these kids have. They don't realise it. Their influencing value is inversely proportional to their rise in numbers. If everyone becomes and influencer, who'll they influence. And why does anyone need influencing. It's just advertising by reinvented. Most of it is just showing skin.
Just an FYI to people who don't agree with me and downvoting me or thinking about flagging this, it doesn't affect me in anyway. The Hackernews karma doesn't feed me or my family. I'm just sharing what I think, without any malice towards the people of China. But I can understand why some might think that way. Just wanted to clarify that I've no personal hatred towards people who live in China. Just like I've no personal hatred towards people living in North Korea and for that matter the Germans who lived in Germany during Nazi rule. Sometimes it's just too late before the people can do anything.
Nice one mate.. It's true. Some of the products are unavoidable. They're being made in China because of corporate greed and demand for cheaper products as a result of consumerism. We don't need to replace a phone or a laptop every 2 years. It's planned obsolescence by many manufacturer. I could be wrong but buying local could make a difference. Especially when China is trying to punish Australia just for asking for an investigation. They've already started bullying others at this stage. Once they surpass the US/NATO in military power, who knows, how's it gonna end for us.
I expected comments like these. You can't avoid everything, as nearly everything has been outsourced to be manufactured there. But sure we can stop buying useless crap sold at Kmart/Target etc. May be buy clothes made in our own countries. There are still people who do that. May be a little more expensive but more incentive to buy less and support local as well as help the environment. To answer the "phone" question, it's made in Taiwan!
Yeah, they're worse than countries that fund terrorism. And the worst thing is their own population is oblivious to all that. It's consumerism in us that led them to power. If we all need/want a little bit less or make a conscious effort not to buy things made in countries with a track record of human rights abuse, it's gonna make a difference.
Big Yamaha fan here. Learnt riding a motorcycle on one of their old 2 stroke models when I was 11 years old! Have been thinking about buying an MT3 for casual riding. This is so futuristic. I'm sure it needs a lot more testing before public release. Even though I'll not be buying one when it's available, it's just too beautiful to ignore!
Thanks for pointing that out. The first part of my question was only rhetorical. I didn't claim that it was the result of my or anyone's professional journalistic endeavours. If that seemed like a "nationalistic flamewar comment", I sincerely apologise.
But the second part of the comment doesn't contain an iota of nationalistic element to it. It simply is a fact as reported by numerous newspapers and felt by many businesses here in Australia. The CCP is punishing Australian businesses as the Australian government is pushing for a proper investigation into a disease that originated in Wuhan and has killed (reportedly) close to a million people so far. In fact It's important to note that it's not a reflection on the people of China, rather the government. I'm happy to be downvoted, probably with nationalist intentions! But I haven't said anything wrong here.
Is the OCR part readily available using this `VNRecognizedTextObservation`? So it suggests possible option and the best one needs to be chosen? Would love to see how it's implemented.
I don't see why MS would adjust his salary. He is still doing the exact same work. If anything he is paying the rent, electricity and internet bills that MS otherwise would pay for him! Am I missing something? I understand that living costs could be lower in his small city. But how is that MS's concern. He get's paid for his work/talent! It's not an attack on your statement. I'm genuinely curious.
yeah, there is some push by the city's business lobby groups to get people to offices as businesses that supported these offices are losing a lot. But it's upto the private companies to decide. Most employees like me have quite good home setups like standing desks, coffee machines etc and can do most of the things from home. It'd be interesting to see what approach other companies will take. I've heard stories about some of the American and Indian/Asian companies starting to ask their employees to get to office. It all depends on the work culture . I work at Xero and they've been quite cool with flexibility even before Covid.
That's just nonsense. Australia has had one of the harshest lockdown measures in the developed world and we're quite Corona free at the moment. We're living in our own little bubble. Everyone who could, had to work from home during the lockdown. Everyone else was supported by a salary equivalent payment from the govt. Now, people are back at work. But when it can be done from home, most people are still choosing to do it that way. And we're haven't lost any productivity. Rather gained more due to savings in commuting time. Also, as our lives get easier, we're more grateful because of it and the overall positivity definitely helps with productivity. I've been lucky to work for a company that promotes this more. Even after everything is normal, no one is being forced to come back to the office. Because it doesn't matter. We get the same thing done more effectively. You're right about one thing. I'm also itching to get back to work. I do that once or twice a week. Mostly to catch up with mates and grab some lunch together.
Thanks a ton for all these answer. Definitely had a couple of a-ha moments from these. Although I don't have enough time in hand at the moment to learn Prolog. But it's definitely one of the things I'll experiment with. Thank you all again. :)
