Your profile says ‘Data Scientist’.
Curious… if you don’t use Python for any programs or tools, what do you use?
Why refuse to use CGo or Zig? What if that is your only path to adding Go code to some existing code base?
Yes and no. No question, it makes builds, requirements, and environments more complicated. But it greatly simplifies the process for API end users (the data scientist or analytics engineer).
These ppl tend to have deep expertise in how to use/interpret the ML models, or in data general data transformations/modeling, but not in low level computer science. I am in the this camp - but I am learning more about the lower level CS.
Outside of the Python ecosystem, the only thing that comes close, wrt data science tooling, is Scala. And then you have to deal with Java bullshit 😂
If Golang, or some other “simple” lower level language (Mojo??) can step up to the plate in data tooling, then I’m sure the industry will follow.
Not too different from all the Go libs which use C code. And, apparently, many of those are using the Zig compiler 😂
Guys… you know all the actual data crunching stuff in these ML Python libs are not IMPLEMENTED in Python, right? 🤣
Python for the easy APIs, and leveraging the robust ecosystem of data libs. Most of the hardcore performance critical stuff is implemented in C or C++, with a strong trend towards Rust for newer projects (see Polars).
Ty sir, I appreciate you too 💜
I am inclined to agree, if only because I get to refine my knowledge in some of the best modern platform tools. And I get to dunk on the shitcoiners 😂
But man… it gets tiring when much of corporate leadership is stuck in 2017 “crypto” mentality, still chasing the pump & dump of the month. And they hire for, and form teams/initiatives around this literal vaporware nonsense.
Hello #Nostr & #Bitcoin frens,
Seeking positive vibes. I am putting in a TON of hours recently.
I’m working in data analytics/engineering, which is what I want to be doing professionally. And I work at a company in “the Bitcoin space”, which is an obvious personal win and motivator at work.
However, we are also involved in shitcoins which causes endless and frequent internal reprioritization. This constant shitcoin noise is increasingly frustrating, and prevents real work from being done… especially as I earn higher respect and position within the company.
Are there any Bitcoin Only co’s out there looking for a data platform/engineering/analytics lead? Should I stick out the shitcoin nonsense to further my career, or jump ship for a lower paying job at a Bitcoin Only startup?
🤙💜🧡 #asknostr

Thanks. I am early in learning Go but definitely liking it so far, and I respect the tradeoffs they have made to keep the language simple and performant.
I watch/read a lot of tech content that discusses language features & limitations, but at the end of the day I’m still only an expert in Python and SQL. And I even then, just the data wrangling areas of Python.
I imagine a good data stack being Go for networking and Extract/Load jobs, and then dbt/SQL for data modeling. Probably don’t even need Python until you get into AI/ML.
lol
I’m a Python data-jockey currently learning Golang. Afaik Go does not compile to some other language, as Python compiles to C… it compiles to lower level ASM or similar.
It is garbage collected, however… so while I understand C or Rust “maximalists”, the concept of a “Go maximalist” is kind of funny 🤣
I thought this option existed… but not seeing it now 🤔
Should I try clearing all cached data from within Damus settings?
fyi team, when I view this profile from a different account, I see the updated profile info.
But I still see the old info when viewing my own profile. (The 58k one is the old version) 
YES

There is no such thing as “delete purism” unless the data only existed on your local drive. And even then 🤔…
