It's at least CUI. At _least_. I would suggest material that is operational in those regards would be secret or top secret. It had: * timelines of kinetic resource missions * conops including order of battle, etc. Per normal ODNI bi

Lots of folks out there use evidence.dev. It's a simple way to get some BI up and running without needing to deal with licensing / corporate IT, etc. Remember all it takes is 1 employee to put that claim up there (although I do l

The libraries out there lack the breadth and maturity of some of the other ecosystems (as a simple example). Or at least they did for some of my corners of the world.

“I can’t imagine being a traditional teacher, and having to teach kids that don’t care.” What I’ve seen is igniting that spark and moving folks from not caring to caring (or realizing they can affect change) can be even more rewarding than

There are some huge deployments out there. Snowflake (the database) has a big dependency on it for how they do metadata (for example)

Let’s say you work for a SaaS doing analytics. Your boss says “hey! We need to start reporting on new logos. Can you snag those from the DB?” But what counts as a new logo? Does a pro serve engagement that doesn’t use the product count?

Yeah. The frameworks solve the 80 percent problem quite well but once you start trying to be as specific as the business often wants, I would find them lacking and end up popping JSON to d3 (or some such)

There's a lot of ... sub par BI devs who want to point and click through horrendous PowerBI interfaces and such. Personally i find that style to hamper my ability to express what the business units need out of data products.

I'm curious what you hit in dash and plotly that evidence let you overcome. (FTR, I use all of them, lightdash, streamlit, (as well as drop down to flask) etc.)

It's just considered "data" these days. We just look at the Vs of the data and adjust based on those. High velocity? Do X. High volume? Accommodate Y. High variety? ... The other side of things is the underlying data q

If I recall, the language that's used in situations like these is something along the lines of "Personal electronic devices will be governed under this policy when such devices are attached to the CPS network." So .. it&#x27

It’s probably worth going somewhere specifically for testing giftedness so you can see if your child (on that day) is more likely gifted, highly gifted, profoundly gifted, etc. Also it can be helpful to find out if there’s other 2E (twice

Modified air packaging with carbon monoxide is _very_ common in the US. So the “artificial color” isn’t some dye or something… it’s how the myoglobin reacts to the MAP.

As to Buddy’s just make your own. Snag a blue steel pan, learn the basic dough recipe, snag some decent ingredients and you’re good to go. Zingermans has a pretty decent virtual class to teach the Detroit style pizza :)
