The inverse of the bus factor: that's the number of projects that get stopped by hitting a specific developper.
Remi Gau@RemiGau11 Jul 2024
This whole "bus factor" thing is just a theory. When was the last time a dev ACTUALLY got hit by a bus? How many RCT double blind trials about devs being hit by bus are there out there?

Apparently from my activity log of the past 18 months, I am bilingual in python and yaml. Does that mean I do dev ops?

I found another AI-generated garbage diagram in a scientific journal. It’s entirely gibberish and features anatomically incorrect limbs with too many bones. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…

Unpopular opinion: stop using jupyter notebooks and learn how to package your python code instead

If you want something a bit more empirical than my semi tepid take on jupyter Notebooks and why they are bad, there was also this more empirical study with recommendations that out a while back. leomurta.github.io/papers/pi…

One big advantage of Matlab over Python. No freaking Notebooks. Matlab folks usually write scripts that usually execute from top to bottom. Unless you are Netflix, don't use Notebooks for development, or at all, unless maybe as advertisements of you final results.

INB4 - Yes I know Matlab as live scripts but I have never seen them being used to the extend jupyter Notebooks are. - I could easily come up with 10 reasons from the top of my head of bad coding practices that are encouraged by Matlab, but this was not my point.

I get that standards and data sharing and infrastructure doesn’t sound all that exciting. I get that funders want to fund the next big discovery or cure or treatment. But if we’re to make the most out of those huge, expensive, time-consuming data sets, they need to be reusable.

From someone who has studied this field for over 2 decades, I can comfortably say that virtually everything said here is inaccurate. It is incredibly disturbing to me that someone claiming to be a scientist can talk with such authority on something they clearly know nothing about
