@jonlprd@AnthropicAI Yeah, it worked again for the last week or so and then got hit with the credential issue again. Not a great look for a so-called Public Benefit Corporation
If you have a PhD in Hydrology, experience with coding/working in the cloud, and an enthusiasm to learn more software dev skills, please reach out! We have a really exciting job opening coming up at @NASAEarthData GES DISC.
@USGS_DataSci The map family is beautiful. When I learned I could group_by, nest, map, unnest in a data frame (because data frames and tibbles are just lists in a trenchcoat) I was like 🤯. The flexibility and productivity of the tidyverse is truly stunning
Is there a compelling reason that attributes and methods are both accessed via the "." in #python? Wouldn't it make more sense to provide some syntactic sugar that differentiates object components for conceptual clarity and readability?
BREAKING: In a stunning leak, Donald Trump gave the keynote address at the Heritage Foundation where he announced the work the foundation did (Project 2025) would be crucial to his policy goals. Retweet so all Americans know Trump will enact Project 2025
We are excited to announce that Turing.jl is participating in Google Summer of Code 2024 under @JuliaLanguage organization. Check out the projects at https://t.co/K7VKo9ZTrT and in 🧵.
Contributors will be able to interact with the Alan Turing Institute @turinginst. #GSoC
Any examples out there of making a quarto or observable framework dashboard that queries a public S3 bucket that contains parquet or zarr files and then displays the result?
For a while now, @LauraEllenDee and I have been working on a guide to introduce Ecologists to causal inference tools for observational data that has problematic unobserved confounding variables lurking in the background. And now it's up as a preprint!

Anyone have a compelling example of using a simple database (e.g., duckdb?) to store intermediate data from a more science-oriented project? I mostly use #rstats, #python, and #julialang. Bonus if the database is managed through docker/compose for the sake of flexibility
@revodavid Texas is largely not on either of the two national grids; it's an interesting case suggesting redundancy from the national grid is still useful and an indication that storage capacity is still limited (which is a huge barrier)
@PhDemetri I get that this is closer to a real-world application, but I feel like you need a much simpler reproducible example to get engagement (or to even solve the problem yourself)
@TylerJBurch I quite like Obsidian (there is also the free version, Foam) because of bidirectional linking of notes (think network instead of hierarchy). And because it's all just markdown and javascript, it works reasonably well with quarto and other markdown derivatives
@PhDemetri I wish my profs had told me earlier it's (almost) all linear algebra and calculus all the way down. Not suggesting much detail is required here, but that insight could be useful to a few near the end of the semester as a kind of "advanced topics and next steps" kinda thing
