Hey Ben! This is so neat! I worked with Dr. Hansen on the audio digitization over on http://exploreapollo.org. Thanks for the link in the footer! I’ve been out of the loop on that project since graduating. Regardless, if you want to collaborate shoot me an email [email protected]
I brought this up with my Japanese friend. He told me there are so many homophones in the language people are desensitised to stuff like this. For example: シ (shi) can mean both 四 (four) and 死 (death).
The fact that it couples dependency management to virtualenv management is really unfortunate for people that use docker. Can’t wait for pipfiles and such to be native to pip.
It’s toxic and lazy too. You should first go look and see if the actual code is high quality/does what you want.
If your idea of shopping for dependencies is looking at the amount of GitHub stars and the quality of the documentation: you are going to miss some real diamonds in the rough.
For instance if you run this on your desktop you could bookmark "http://local-desktop-ip:3000" on your mobile device and be able to download videos while on mobile.
I use zsh daily but type `xonsh` any time I do something in the shell that would normally require a google.
“Uh ok so I have this JSON file. When I pipe this to `jq` I forget: to pivot an array of objects to an object keyed by array[x].id is it like `to_entries` then chain it to `map`? Uhh let’s look at the docs...”
However in Python I can write that function at the speed of thought. It may be a couple more lines of code but I’m also 100% confident in the output.
Like I understand some people can legitimately program in bash [0]. But I just can’t bring myself to practice. Why would anyone inflict this language on themselves?
I was to “go to person” for my university’s natural language processing research group. I built a database and accompanying REST API for bulk loading audio and transcription data for one of their projects. I was quite pleased with it.
When it came time for the researchers to submit transcripts I had the pleasure of reviewing probably the worst python program I have ever seen.
1) The request JSON was manually built using strings and string substitution. One immediate bug I saw was that the researcher forgot to wrap one of his keys in quotes. `{key: “val”}` is not valid JSON of course.
2) The python program did not actually make the web requests. It generated curl commands as strings and then printed them to std out.
3) The researcher then took all these generated curl commands and evaled them.
I had the pleasure of hanging out with the Sentry folks in SF for a couple days last week. Honestly a top-notch group.
It was eye-opening to see what is possible when you have an organization like theirs where you have a lot of talent and pride in your product across the board.
