Readit NewsI avoid joins in R like a plague. Been burned. If I am working with a finite number of colummns, I just use base R match and add column by column. yes it breaks DRY but I don't get weird surprises. and I can re-run any section of the code at any time from any point without breaking things or joining the same and creating unintended duplicate columns
What kind of weird surprises have you run into? Are they specific to R?

Right - if the paper is really good, it might take a few years to understand.
Most papers can be read in < 10 seconds ("not interesting, next"). Most pretty good papers can be read in 5-10 minutes. Very good papers might take a few hours. And so on.
I'm caricaturing, but only a tiny bit, this is how I read. And for good stuff, that I want to understand, a page an hour is (often) pretty typical for my first fairly thorough read.
I've written two textbooks, and in both cases I thought of the book as the distilled outcome from reading about a dozen very important papers really thoroughly
Can you say more about this? What accounts for the difference in time spent on a pretty good vs a very good paper? Is it that you find the material in a very good paper more worthwhile, and thus are willing to expend more effort to understand it?

We need two more, NVIDIA and AMD? Then it's MANAMANA (do do do do do).
Dell and Oracle, etc
I legitimately don't know which f-word you're referring to. This is where we are.

This was really interesting to me. How does one develop an app for Siri (or an AI agent in general). Is there a standard way to communicate and expose the functionality of your app?
