How hard is it to make a film/movie of sorts? (mostly by ones-self) by jackattackson in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[-] jackattackson@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

The tough thing with creative endeavors is that you really just need the motivation to start and continue making anything, it can be inexpensive stuff. The important thing is output and making it a regular thing.

That being said, gearing up for a new hobby is always fun if you can afford it. But you can absolutely make short films on an iPhone.

As a lifelong peanut butter cup fanatic, this initially filled me with rage. Can't stop thinking about though...

Any data folks on lemm.ee? Should I join a different instance? (lemm.ee)
submitted 1 year ago by jackattackson@lemm.ee to c/meta@lemm.ee
5 comments fedilink

I joined lemm.ee and I'm honestly really liking it so far. @sunaurus@lemm.ee is doing a great job!

However, I'm wondering if I should create a new account on programming.dev (or somewhere else) to be closer to where data science / data engineering conversations are happening.

Or maybe there's a way to promote !dataengineering@lemm.ee to folks on other instances? (I didn't create this one but I'm hoping it's discovered by others soon)

What is Data Lineage? (airbyte.com)
submitted 1 year ago by jackattackson@lemm.ee to c/dataengineering@lemm.ee
0 comments fedilink

I get questions like this a lot:

  • Where did this data come from?
  • How do I know I can trust the source?
  • What types of QA checks were applied to this data?

Data lineage is such a chronic issue in data engineering. This blog post from Airbyte gives a good overview & mentions some interesting products/projects that can maybe help out with data lineage.

Unfortunately, I have limited flexibility to purchase or install tools for this in my current role. Anyone rolled their own solution for this?

(pdf download at the bottom of the linked page)

Often the most challenging part of data engineering is figuring out what problem to solve in the first place.

The resources Stanford put in this Design Thinking Bootleg might have something that can help you work with others and build towards a well-designed solution.

Array programming with NumPy (www.nature.com)

For Python developers, the NumPy array is a widely used data structure in data science / data engineering.

Thought this paper was a good resource to learn a bit more about the history and core concepts of NumPy.

Curious if other Spotify users are using the DJ feature. Can't decide if I like it or not yet.

Thanks for sharing! I really want to get my family on Matrix now.

We have not been able to find a solid chat/video call app that the entire family (various ages and tech aptitude) can effectively use. We've been bouncing around to various apps since COVID lockdowns started. We had been using Slack for a while but the video calling in Slack is unusable now.

I'm wondering the same thing.

I am a long time signal user but I just started using Matrix yesterday and now I'm very curious about whether Signal or Matrix is better somehow in terms of security/privacy.
