Just want to say this is super cool. I'm excited to see what people build on top of it.. seems like it could enable a new category of hosted data platforms-as-a-service (platform-as-a-services?).
Yeah.. I have all the respect in the world for Haifeng's talent and I totally understand (and agree!) that open source developers need to be compensated one way or another, and I don't want to get into a debate that could lead to accusations by people who don't know the full story, but there are definitely some sour grapes over the whole situation and some of the pull away from smile has more to do with feelings that not everyone involved is acting in good faith more than issues about GPL exactly.
I don't disagree at all, but unfortunately it's mostly out of the hands of any community to recommend or enforce usage of a given library. There are many valid concerns around GPL licensing (not that I necessarily agree with them), but ultimately ignoring the requirement of many orgs to not use GPL-licensed code would just harm the ecosystem.
There are actually a surprising number of academics in the Clojure for data science study groups. A lot of them ran into performance or portability issues with Python or R and found Clojure tools as a good solution.
The literate programming story is great in Clojure. Clay (https://github.com/scicloj/clay) is also a great option and supports rendering to quarto notebooks, which are IMO one of the best publishing options out there for technical books etc.
Most Clojure guides understandably focus on the Clojure language itself. As a hosted language, Clojure relies on various mechanisms of its host platform (for example the JVM, CLR or Javascript) for building, dependency management and packaging. This guide aims to explain how code is compiled, packaged and ultimately run on the JVM. Understanding these processes is very useful when developing and debugging Clojure applications professionally. This guide assumes familiarity with the Clojure language but not Java or the JVM.
I think your analysis doesn't account for the fact that the majority of double vaccinated people are also at far higher risk of covid to begin with. There was an interesting article about this (Simpson's Paradox, as it's known in the world of data analysis) recently: https://www.covid-datascience.com/post/israeli-data-how-can-... -- the overall trend is reversed when the data are grouped properly.
The preponderance of evidence shows that the covid vaccines are overwhelmingly effective and safe for the vast majority of people. Your alarmism and calling Government vaccination campaigns propaganda is contributing to the spread of an incurable but now preventable disease that is killing thousands of people daily and you should feel bad about that. You are a menace to society.
This! Women who get into business or tech or whatever aren't "emulating men". Many are actually genuinely interested in those pursuits. A lot of women just do not want to be homemakers. Many do, sure, and it should be a viable option without stigma, but for at least half it would be hell and we should allow women to pursue their interests and desires.
I don't disagree homemaking should be less stigmatized, but the real problem is American startup culture that expects this kind of around-the-clock all-in hustle mentality. The vast majority of businesses are actually just small firms with a few people that make a decent living. That's the lifestyle that should be celebrated and desirable. There's no reason running a business can't be compatible with having a family, we just need to re-define what it looks like to run a company. The focus should be on sustainability and balance, not growth at any cost.
Jira. But seriously. The main one is a lack of ownership. When there are 20 different people asking for stuff from engineering and no on managing or prioritizing those requests, I'm out. That's chaos.
America doesn't need healthcare innovation. Every developed country in the world has better and cheaper healthcare already. They need policy innovation and a functioning political system.
I feel exactly the same. I'm literally at a point where I feel like I just don't even know how to do my job anymore. I've done all the bullshit people here are suggesting, it doesn't work for some people, including me. This situation is horrible and you're not alone.
