I used R pretty extensively I’m academia too, but Python is way more flexible, and doing statistics is just half the work in an office job.


I demonstrate that Python could easily replace SAS (proprietary and expensive statistical software). There was already plans to move from SAS to Python and I was the first hire specifically to help with this, and after a couple of months they saw that it worked better than expected and the SAS phase out was accelerated.


How do you know if a picture was taken on fall? I’m joking, guess MM is for month. Anyway, YYYY-MM-DD is ISO-8601 compliant and better.
If I understand correctly, you want to add the filename as a watermark in your pictures? Do you know python? Pretty sure there must be some python library that can help you with that. Try asking some AI LLM it should not be that complicated.
Lua should be in Portuguese.
Kinda started using that with polars, force the scan/read schema as string, and down the road cast as the necessary type when needed. I’m calling it “just in time” data cleaning.
Had a friend who father was a FORTRAN programmer and teach him since he was a child. At 17, he was already working on a oil company making bank. He was obsessed with synthesizers and everytime you went to his house he showed you the new ones he bought. At 25 he “retired” with his own house and a fully equipped recording studio and nowadays it’s a music producer doing some consulting to pay the bills.


I think that if your license is MIT then you don’t really understand why free software exist.
Vibe coding without Cursor


OCaml maybe


Does everyone call the function of the script main? I never use main(), just call the function what the program is supposed to do, this program calculates the IBNR? The function is called calculate_IBNR(), then at the end of the script if name = ‘main’: calculate_IBNR(test_params) to test de script, then is imported into a tkinter script to be converter to an exe with pyinstaller


How many lines are in a page?


It counts.
I have no problem using AI to find bugs, but this specific process was a Python-SAP pipeline connection and SAP is pretty country-sector-company specific that unless you train in-house no model is going to understand what are you talking about.
Not a lot really, half a day or something like that, but it was a boomer because the analyst had to the process manually. Then I had to spend a couple of days re checking my scripts to see of I had some more hardcoded variables.

I do mostly data science and was going crazy when one of my scripts stopped working properly in January after months of use without problems. It’s pretty obvious when you write it down, but I had hardcoded 2024 somewhere and it was using the 2024-01 dataset.
Curious about that nested object.
