    Still incorrect. And I would urge you to read one of these books you reference - they ALL aim to achieve that agent's action ON ITS OWN - i.e., by learning from its environment, an…

    Every program that has ever existed does this. So, you're saying that all programs that have ever existed, then, are all AI. You make no distinction whatsoever. I would say that th…

    A* search, any kind of heuristic estimation, learning, or simulated reasoning. All of those things would count. We don't need mathematical optimization to call it "AI", but there S…

    A* search counts as academic AI. If-then statements do not.

    > the (possibly unattainable) ideal would be having everything expressed as "pretty much an if-then statement" indeed. This is flatly incorrect - the point of AI is to have a machi…

    Why are they calling it "AI", though? There isn't any AI or ML. You leave a trail for the enemy to follow, and they follow it. It's not even path-finding, it's path-following. Whic…

    Adding the obvious numpy vectorization - I presume that counts as an 'open source project'? Or maybe this is limited to little personal projects, and not major libraries ?

    You're right that there is not any official standard. But almost every major library follows a convention that's very similar to the cpython docs. If you're making a language refer…

    A key hallmark of Python is readability - which this cheat sheet has managed to royally screw up. It looks more like an XML cheatsheet at first glance. I work in python full-time f…

    The origin of the "standup" is just a regular daily coordination meeting - like thousands of organizations have always had. Ever heard of a "morning sales meeting"? They've existed…

    Just letting you know the link to the 10X article gives a 404. I tried to read it, but "page does not exist". ---- Edit for clarification: First link in first paragraph after "10X"…

    The think I don't like about scrum is that they teach that you literally don't need to know a single thing about the underlying business - in fact, that is discouraged - following …

    Thank you for chiming in and clarifying. I was thinking of that 2013 page specifically - good to know it is now out of date.

    Yeah, I read this link also - before posting above. There is no 'username' or 'password' term on that page - nor any positive checkmark in any security column for the open-source t…

    According to the docs, it's a 30-Day trial: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/curr... Are these docs out-of-date ? Does anyone know if any features remain aft…

    No - I'm trying to say that people often don't even know what the DE really needs to do. They know they have back-end problems, and need someone to clean them up. But often the hir…

    SE usually at least knows what language they're expecting you to mainly work in. Not always the case for DE.

    hmm ... I didn't think about that. I wonder if the term is building a negative connotation?

    I feel the term "Data Engineer" gets used for a lot of catch-all "we have problems that need an owner" situations. There's not much consistency across job postings and interviews f…

    What else are they supposed to do? Apply to the same job again? There's little you can do if you never make contact or hear back. You just apply to other positions. But what if you…

    How many people respond to your job ads? Where I live (major US metropolis), it's about 200-700 per job (according to linkedin, anyways). The biggest trouble for a soft. eng is get…

    Thank you. Probably not felony, but definitely illegal. Not to mention high civil liability.
