Video Link:

Here’s the VOD: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1486167650


Summary:

  1. Brief talk about keyboards

  1. If you’re doing time series forecasting, take a look at Prophet: https://facebook.github.io/prophet/ which has drastically improved their quality of documentation (in Python)

Example Quarto Notebook

  1. Talked about MeaLeon again, and Heroku was actually running!

  1. Food: like hot sauce? https://heatonist.com/

Twitch Chat!

  1. Statsmodels library for Python https://www.statsmodels.org/devel/user-guide.html
    1. However, the documentation is hard to follow for someone reading just the code calls since not every function or method is fully specified in those specific method docs.
    2. Usually have to use a mix of tutorials (some not even from statsmodels) with documentation to figure out how to do things
    3. Commented on how R as a language since it was intended to be a statistics package/software is just much better at doing statistics. Statsmodels introduced a formula api that basically just allows you to write R formulas and they just work. Example here: https://www.statsmodels.org/devel/example_formulas.html notably, the formula documentation is not quite as good

It’s MeaLeon!

  1. Natural Language Processing (NLP) libraries:

  1. Looking for advice on how to structure code?

  1. Chat submitted/related things:

To Do:

  1. Figure out how to make a template for blog posts on this site
    • Cannot be done on free tier
  2. Consider adding Quarto support/template
    • Quarto documentation can be found here: Quarto
  3. Figure out how the experiment logging in DVC works
    • Does it require architecture/infrastructure set up like MLFlow prefers?
    • How difficult would it be to migrate from local to cloud?
    • Is it better to start in cloud? How much would that cost?
  4. Test the Contact Me form on the Contact page/set up email to work on BuenosDS.dev
    • On stream, I commented that the site doesn’t have email functionality yet, but afterwards, I realized that WordPress I believe defaults to storing anything submitted via Contact Us form into a saved form that can be accessed by site admins. Will have to check
  5. Figure out how to properly embed Twitch VODs in WordPress posts
    • Wanted to display it on each note page, but it seems to break. Embeds mention looking at developer docs.
    • Other sites mention using different blocks or features that don’t seem to exist anymore
  6. Add stuff from chat, and also check what chat sends in for stream notes
