nah that seems rude, good luck 2 this thread

I swear every time a cjs thread closes the one immediately after is a wacky shitshow and gets closed in a day or two, then when everyone gets it out of their system the cjs one after that is what is cool and good

just human nature I guess

oof man, that sounds frustrating.

intensely so. it's turned him into an incredibly selfish human being who is constantly convinced that everyone has abandoned him.

my dad and i drop by every saturday to watch the cardinals game, and my grandmother uses the opportunity to go out with her friends -- hit up the mall, lunch etc. after about an hour the panic sets in and he assumes something has happened to her. frantically demanding she call, telling her to come home, cursing out his flip phone when he doesn't understand that the green button means 'call.'

when he isn't panicking over her, he's panicking over his dog. he will freak out after a couple minutes when she is not in visual contact, convinced that she has gotten out of the house. usually she's in his bedroom halfway under the bed because she's as loving sick of it as the rest of us.

like, i get that he isn't really 'there' to most extent and it's just a bag of chemicals with a big mouth, but it doesn't make the experience any less frustrating for the rest of the family, particularly my grandmother and i as we're the ones he attaches to most.

sorry for the rant!

all our forecasting models are in matlab and while we dont need to see the code to run them, none of us know matlab and the contractor who built them is long gone so we have no real way to update them

plan is to move some to python and some to analytica for some reason but i'm not an economist so i won't be doing that thx

it's worth noting that regex's should absolutely be a last resort, because famously, if you use a regex to solve a problem you now have two problems

i played a lot of online poker way back in 2005 when i didnt have a summer job in college .i got way more interested in the math and theory behind it, built spreadsheets and poo poo .im pretty certain those spreadsheet/theory/math skills i learned while doing that got me the job i have now

funny how things can turn out sometimes. i have zero desire to play poker again tho
