New paper from Vargas and colleagues theorizes & measures "Academic Copaganda": "studies contesting social movement claims by authors (1) masking their conflicts of interest, or (2) espousing police epistemology." www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Nice 😅 #databs

Every once in a while I bump into some good old RegEx #databs

and that’s why I’m working on a Saturday morning 🫠

My life at work right now... #databs

You have now completed January 2025.

One more day of data cleaning in this politically troubled world #databs

I got laid off suddenly and I'm looking for a new gig — remote or Denver based data scientist/ML engineer roles I'm good enough at coding to not break prod and good enough at humans that I used to be a therapist Reach out via the email on the resume I've linked below or DM with leads, thank you!!

C'mon Spotify, let me sort the album by number of plays (!!!) #databs

I used to know several Pandas and SQL functions by heart... now they're just gone from my brain #databs

Good list, would be good to hear additions from #dataBS, I would add "what are embeddings" by @vickiboykis.com -> www.latent.space/p/2025-papers

Data To-do list for 2025: - Learn an orchestration tool (currently choosing between dbt / dagster) - Learn RAG - Learn LLM fine-tuning - Learn another language (I’m choosing between Rust and Go) - Learn basic Computer Vision Sounds pretty unrealistic, but oh well 😆 #databs

I learned A TON from running End to End Machine Learning for 6 years. I've tried to capture some of it here. More than anything I'm grateful to all of you who were a part of it. You were the heart. www.brandonrohrer.com/e2eml_lessons

My reaction when I open Twitter and see nonsense immigration discussions

Ecosystem of 350k models and datasets on @hf.co's hub, connected to other models or datasets they were derived from (where that information exists, which is not the case for another 1M entities) #databs public.graphext.com/d9275e17cc44... Color, filter and search within each of the 30 variables...

Me reading AWS' documentation whenever I try to do something with boto3 #databs 🫠

I feel seen. (h/t to @forrestbrazeal)

When my PR reviewer tells me I should use this architecture or that software pattern #dataBS

Beginning my transition from pandas to polars… 🐼 —> 🐻‍❄️ Will likely be a pain, but the faster execution times may be worth it #databs

Discovering that there's a Dark Theme in AWS made my day brighter 🤩 #databs

Retrieval-Augmented Generation: Clearly explained 🔥 #LLMs #datasky #mlsky

Currently refactoring a codebase that was pretty ugly (which I had done 😅)

Data is the most fundamental requirement to build a good machine learning system. Common challenges: - Not having enough of it - Poor-quality - Nonrepresentative training data - Not enough relevant features - Too many irrelevant features - Low diversity Garbage in, garbage out.

If you’re one of the millions of users who are new to Bluesky, you may find this blog useful. 🦋

Repost if BlueSky is now your primary social media site.

A dataset of 1 million or 2 million Bluesky posts is completely irrelevant to training large language models. The primary usecase for the datasets that people are losing their shit over isn't ChatGPT, it's social science research and developing systems that improve Bluesky.

Just put it on a Git repo and track the changes ✌🏼🦋

Will there ever be Python 4? #Python #JustWondering

Trying to create a conda environment from a poetry.lock file --- wish me luck 🫠 #Python

This feels like such a good alternative to Twitter 😁
