"Failure as a Teachers Aid" Any person with a minimum sufficient experience in life has been rewarded with failure.

That moment when you're like "Oh, an anaconda2 directory... I don't need that any more" and you delete it and are then reminded you had this crucial thing that depended on it/python2 and it is now broken and you have to reinstall anaconda2. Sigh. -

From ben_j_lindsay https://twitter.com/ben_j_lindsay on Twitter: One of the most underrated #Pandas functions in #Python is `.query()`.

From felix_led https://twitter.com/felix_led on Twitter: "The current state of (deep) learning theory is a bit like physics in the early 20th century - they had a classical theory, a lot of weird results from experiments, and no convincing theory (=quantum mechanics) yet to explain them." - Lenka @zdeborova #machine19 https://twitter.com/felix_led/status/1108432492686508032/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/56174 -

While the Presidents budget is always a fantasy and this one is DOA, nonetheless federal agencies have to plan using this proposal until Congress actually passes a budget. Thus it is imperative the Congressional budget process proceeds effectively. https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/2019/03/19/trumps-budget-slashes-science-heres-what-would-be-lost/?noredirect=on -

There is real joy in multiplying the Sun's surface temperature, raised to the 4th power, by the Stefan-Boltzmann constant; or dividing the power output of the sun by its surface area; then seeing for yourself those numbers are nearly identical. Thank-you, nature. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1106319892469436422/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/55937
