RocketSyntax··on How are Unix pipes implemented?

my_df %>% plot(col1,col2,col3)

see 18.2.1 and 18.2.4 in https://r4ds.had.co.nz/pipes.html

much sugar

RocketSyntax··on How are Unix pipes implemented?

I'd greatly appreciate pipes in the next version of Python. Pandas is huge now, and the R programming language has implemented this for its dataframes. There are Python packages for this, but they were buggy for me.

RocketSyntax··on Andreessen vs. Thiel (2017)

Meh. Would prefer a summary of Zero to One.

RocketSyntax··on NCAA cancels March Madness and other championships

It's not a game to those players. It's their life. If they don't want to get the flu it should be their choice not to play.

RocketSyntax··on NCAA cancels March Madness and other championships

So soft. Teams should just play. Anyone that isn't sick can play. It's a 5v5 game. Next thing you know tennis matches will be canceled.

RocketSyntax··on Ask HN: Open Covid-19 Patient Database

I'm down to help. You could skip a UI and go straight jupyter w csv file - get some nice visualizations out there quick. Google Forms.

self hosting option?

RocketSyntax··on Show HN: VR-OS is a desktop operating system beyond the limits of your monitor

More transparency on the fingers.

RocketSyntax··on Thinking Psycopg3

The biggest problem to be solved is that `pip install psycopg2` does not work out of the box in most cases; having to resort to the binary. I run into it with Flask and Django all the time. https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CA%2Bmi_8bd6kJHLTGkuyH...

RocketSyntax··on Greater male than female variability in regional brain structure (Paper)

Look into zygosity. Variants are either heterozygous or homozygous. A heterozygous variant is far less worse than a homozygous variant because the correct protein can still be produced to a certain extent.

RocketSyntax··on Greater male than female variability in regional brain structure (Paper)

Females don't have chromosome Y, they have two chromosome X's.

Therefore they don't get any Y stuff. And a mutation in one chromosome X can be mitigated by a non-mutation in the other chromosome X.

Spiking neural nets are a lot like these "sparse dags"

Summarizing long text-based articles! Found this on HN. Now when my family/ friends send me stuff they haven't actually read ... at least I can reply somewhat intelligently.

RocketSyntax··on Why do incompetent managers get promoted?

Because they go along with the plan of upper mgmt.

RocketSyntax··on Fastai: A Layered API for Deep Learning

Is "fastai to pytorch" what "keras is to tensorflow?"

Glad to see pandas support for tabular data.
