I only skimmed through the article; so bear with me.

Currently at work we do extensive work with AWS Lambdas that does algorithmic calculations on in-memory datasets with pandas.

We're all pretty new to pandas and python in general. Our workflow has lead to us dropping debug-breakpoint in PyCharm and using ipython to interactively hack at our problem til we get it right. I think it works wonderful.

Until this project, I didn't use debug-breakpoints that much, but I've learned to appropriate the features PyCharm provides. It's very powerful once you get the hang of it.

1-5 star rating system works out when you have a lot of data; and don't work out at all when you have poor ones.

Now, that rating only makes sense given the clustered group of people with similar taste. It's also adds complexity of the clustering said group.

Furthermore, I think people generally are not always the best critic. I totally can picture people being precise in their rating getting the most of the the recommendation engine, and the sloppy getting poor recommendations.

In that case, I can't blame Netflix for wanting to trim down the complexity for making it easier for the audience and themselves.

Cooperations have had 2 years meeting GDPR requirements.

If you're late to the party, which I think the majority businesses in and out of Europe are, means you have made other priorities.

Question is whether or not how hard they hit when GDPR goes live 25th of May. That remains to be seen, but it wouldn't surprise me if there's a `grace` period.

I did almost the same thing.

I used 1 week to selectively go through accommodations manually, then proceed to complain to a friend of mine.

She's barely human, and she found literary one-of-a-kind apartment dead center at a good price. The apartment was mine next day.

Human scrapers man.

I was an exchange student in CA for a year. During my year, I had to interact with my very local and small bank in Norway.

I managed to persuade one employee to change the attached cellphone number to my temporary american one, but they initially didn't think it work.

It was a great day when I got access to my money again.
