What I Learned in my First 18 Months as a Freelance Data Scientist | Towards Data Science The taxes and health insurance edition

A lot of people have asked me since starting my own freelance/solopreneur company how I am managing things like health insurance and taxes. So time for a new blog post on @towardsdatascience.com !

I hate the term digital transformation. Because most companies aren’t transforming anything they’re simply buying software that amplifies their chaos. ##digitaltransformation##enterprisetech##ops##pro... TikTok video by kylercheatham

Words are inadequate to express how much I love this!

Got word that my new LinkedIn Learning course on #GraphRAG will be going live soon! Stay tuned for the official announcement!

This is just par for the course. Remember how many close advisors and cabinet members he went through during his first term? Steve Bannon?

I had a pretty big life realization this morning: www.linkedin.com/posts/dr-cla...

And again, the volume of waste hours down if we allow reprocessing. Plus, you are not burying a bunch of material that could still be used in power generation, which is (excuse me) wasteful.

So it is not possible to verify storage options because nobody will guarantee anything for 10k years (nor should they). However, if laws were rewritten to allow for monitoring and upgrading as necessary, this becomes a very different problem.

We DO know how to store it. The problem is that it is written into law (at least in the US) the words "unmonitored and unretrievable." So that means we can't go in and upgrade the store or tinker with it to make it better for 10k years. A shot in the foot.

Take France, for example. They get approximately 70% of their power from nuclear. They reprocess spent fuel into MOX fuel. The amount of spent fuel they store is remarkably small relative to countries like the US.

Water remains an "unsolved problem" to certain nations like the US who have written into law that they would not reprocess fuel. Those who do reprocess have spent fuel that is actually safer.

I think it might help if you define "better." Are you referring to the thermal efficiency? Strictly based off of E=mc2, nuclear has the highest efficiency of mass-energy conversion of existing power solutions while not emitting greenhouse bases.

Exactly this

What about the physics do you find out of whack?

Spare us the fake outrage.

Everyone says raising teenagers is really hard. And before you have one, you just say "yeah, I know," because it is all you can say to that.

But you don't really know.

Spent the week recording my upcoming course on GraphRAG at the LinkedIn Learning studios. What an awesome experience!

Why are people at conferences still using Twitter?

... But I will certainly consider VPNing into a different country if necessary!

Starting my search now to find ways to stream the #TourDeFrance that is NOT Peacock. They got rid of the international feed for this year and I HATE the US commentators/feed with the burning passion of a thousand dying suns.

FuboTV streams the Peacock feed and FloBikes is not available in the US.

Hot take:

The major AI companies and the media are doing a complete disservice to the field. It is a PR mess. The only things we are seeing are dystopian uses. Where are the positive use cases?

My clients are working on climate change, food insecurity, and refugee movement from war zones. Others?

Trump calls the election of Pope Leo "a great honor."

News flash, you shit gibbon. They are not honoring YOU. If anything, it is a rebuke of you.

So yeah, not everything is ACTUALLY a boundary. Maybe you just need to grow up and accept that sometimes we have to have hard conversations. Ask me how I know. (And I have pictures to prove it.) (15/15)

And YOU were the one who got them to think this way, because you couldn't be adult enough to accept the difficult and uncomfortable discussion created by your lack of responsibility. (14/n)

They will roll their eyes because, based on their experience with "boundaries," they don't work because they are silly and frivolous. (13/n, I think)

And while this might seem petty, you calling it a boundary does disservice to the mental health community. Because every time a survivor of abuse tries to create a legitimate boundary people will think about these petty examples of "boundaries" that you created. (12/n)

That is NOT a boundary. That is you being uncomfortable with how things have gone, recognizing that you have responsibility here. (11/n)

So the victim is trying to at least come out not owing anything. They contact you and want your insurance information so the insurance companies can sort it out.

And you say "I am setting a boundary that I will not provide you with the insurance information." (10/n)

The bite victim goes to urgent care and the diagnosis and treatment cost a few hundred $. Your dog was clearly the aggressor here and this is not in dispute. The victim, despite having insurance, has to shell out cash for treatment. Also not in dispute. (9/n)
