Some feedback: I was about to try now (paying) but currently I can only install it in my desktop (no iOS support), and I am very worried about the idea of giving full access to a close-source unpopular extension with not-very-clear ownership.
I think it would go a long way to create some trust to show who are you in the webpage and maybe open source the extension too (the backend is not as importa nt).
> Bankers/Academics go to the UK and make twice the money
Academics does not make more money in UK than in Germany, in fact for junior positions (PhD/Postdoc) they make less. Full professors seems to make more, but I rumors say than new professors in UK are making significantly less than their older (boomer and older) counterparts.
SREs will end up the same gatekeeper reputation as traditional IT teams, and a new buzzword will need to be made to signify the "move fast and break things" cool kid energy than DevOps and SREs (still?) have.
Few people in the R world use Jupyter environment, they are generally inferior to use the Rstudio environment. This might change in the future though, VSCode and DataSpell are becoming really good. Jupyter Labs are slowly improving too.
> Is possible that Julia will replace R for a lot of use cases
R is a interactive statistical programming language that acts as a frontend for more performance languages. AFAIK interactivity is not the strongest points of Julia at the moment.
I work in this space: most "cool" ML is useless, and stakeholder are very skeptical of new modelling techniques. It is a long slog of EDA and finding actionable causality. Deep learning, modern reinforcement learning... are not the best fit here.
However I have seen CV and NLP useful here and there... but it is not the bread and butter.
