you can download any music you want on youtube as mp3s. store them on a usb drive and plug it on your car, or store it in your computer and store a huge music library... but why bother yourself doing that if you can stream directly on any platform...

RStudio is a nice tool for making some quick graphs on data, descriptive analyisis and quickly exploring a dataset. Building some reports, or manipulating small datasets for beautiful graphs.

For anything else, we use Python.

yeah, we use a lot of small linear systems to model a non linear system.

We just break the problem in small bananas because that's what we can solve, and then solve for those lil'bananas and call it done.

"Classification of mathematical problems as linear and nonlinear is like classification of the Universe as bananas and non-bananas. "

and everything turns around the same principles. For example dynamical models and PID controls.

yet solving a banana, is the only thing we really know how to do. So we end up fitting everything in our banana models.

I thought the same about the iPad.

who in their right mind would like a huge screen like a phone, without a good way to input information like a keyboard or a mouse. what would be the use case for a product like that? watch youtube?

boom

How would you paraphrase "I want a full copy of my data" in a corporate jargon?

Also, I'm afraid they may send me the data incomplete without important relational keys between tables.

How to request a DB dump to a vendor?

sebastianavina — Thu, 06 Apr 2023 22:13:08 +0000

I have a customer that has an internal system that we want to replace.

We dont want to tell the current vendor we will replace their system with a new one. But I want to ask them for a complete SQL Dump.

I need some advice on asking that information in a polite way.

I'm sure its a niche opportunity due to the high voltage lines that run along the railway, unlimited electric power source its the only thing we need to start developing ironman-like suits.

I prefer PHP as a whore.

Because we all abuse it, and is damn easy to make it work.

But at the end, we all feel dirty for using php.

New comment by sebastianavina in "Netflix’s biggest competition isn’t sleep, it’s YouTube"

sebastianavina — Mon, 10 Dec 2018 11:00:24 +0000

I've bought several movies on youtube. My family has netflix, but I don't like to watch tv, so I really dont care... On the other side, sometimes I read something about a movie, and I just want to watch that movie... If it's not available on netflix, I go straight to youtube and buy it or rent it... Also, I always listen music on youtube. It's just a differente market...

My mom love the tv, and watches tv 10 hours a day straight (yeah, its unhealty, but she is 66 y/o, so if thats her will, she can do whatever she wants), and she loves netflix, and amazon prime, and claro video, and youtube...

So, at some point I want to search about "kavanaugh" on google, and it turns out that kavanaugh's social manager already doctored a great landing page for his name...

I don't know, it seems like a great feature, but we are loosing the essence of the internet.
