This client likes her pillows fluffy, Monika explains as she lines up pillows on the bed. “It’s not like the first visit when you have to look where everything is.”īy now, she has finished making the bed. “You get to know the client better over time,” Monika says as she moves over to make the bed. Usually her duties include making the bed, taking out the garbage, getting groceries and putting them away, dealing with the clothes and letting in the cleaner sent by M圜lean, a tech-enabled cleaning service. Earlier this week, Monika had dropped off dry cleaning and run some other errands. Alfred charges $32 a week for one visit and $58 for two visits. Today is Monika’s second weekly visit to this particular client’s home. Swiftly she transfers her client’s clothes from the wire hangers they were delivered on to her own and puts them into their appropriate spots. Monika gets right to work – disappearing in a walk-through closet (there is a bathroom on the other end) to put away dry cleaning we picked up from the building’s concierge. The studio looks ready for a photoshoot and I wonder whether my place would look as stylish if I had a butler of my own. “She is one of the tidiest people I know,” Monika says. She has been with this particular client for about a year, but has yet to meet her. “You feel like you have a connection with everyone. “You meet almost everyone,” Monika tells me, noting that sometimes people work from home or end up being sick. “It’s a different feeling to have a human being, who you trust, who you feel is taking care of you and when you come home, you have a feeling of relief and a connection with another human being,” says Marcela Sapone, one of Alfred’s co-founders. ![]() After all, once you’ve signed up online, downloaded the app and had your in-person consultation, you are handing over the keys to your house.

The way concepts are explained in the lectures are quite good. ★★★★★ Just one word - Exceptional!! Don't give a second thought, just go for it. It was just the refresher course I needed after not having done much SQL in the past year. He covers an amazing amount of ground in just 9 hours. The instructor is excellent (clear explanations, easy to understand, extremely knowledgeable), and his style of constantly requiring the student to apply what they've just learned with practice queries proves to be a very effective method of learning. ★★★★★ You really can't beat this course for the value. ★★★★★ Here’s reviews from real students that took this course ★★★★★ With over 17,000 students and a 4.6 rating, you won't find a better source to learn SQL for Data Science elsewhere.ĭon’t just take it from me, take it from other students that have taken this course. Just like my other courses, I follow the no-student-left behind principle which means that I start from the very basics. You do not need any prerequisites to take this course. We move step by step into more advanced topics as we delve into the world of advanced querying techniques using subqueries, aggregations, joins, rollups and cubes, window functions, transposing & ranking data and using conditional expressions in very interesting ways. After completing the course and all of it's assignments, I promise you, you'll never be afraid to look at a large SQL query again. There are over 100 puzzles scattered throughout the course with in-depth solutions providing plenty of opportunity for you to practice. You'll learn the skills you need to extract critical insight from data sitting in a database. You will interpret the structure, meaning, and relationships in source data and use SQL as a professional to shape your data for targeted analysis purposes.Īlthough we do not have any specific prerequisites or software requirements to take this course, a simple text editor is recommended for the final project.This course will turn you into a SQL query wizard. You will discuss topics on data, and practice using real-world programming assignments. You will use case statements and concepts like data governance and profiling. You will learn common operators and how to combine the data. You will create new tables and be able to move data into them. You'll start to work with different types of data like strings and numbers and discuss methods to filter and pare down your results. It will build on that foundation and gradually have you write both simple and complex queries to help you select data from tables. This course starts with the basics and assumes you do not have any knowledge or skills in SQL. You will begin to ask the right questions and come up with good answers to deliver valuable insights for your organization. This course is designed to give you a primer in the fundamentals of SQL and working with data so that you can begin analyzing it for data science purposes. The skills necessary to be a good data scientist include being able to retrieve and work with data, and to do that you need to be well versed in SQL, the standard language for communicating with database systems. ![]() According to Glassdoor, being a data scientist is the best job in America with a median base salary of $110,000 and thousands of job openings at a time. This is a data scientist, “part mathematician, part computer scientist, and part trend spotter” (SAS Institute, Inc.). As data collection has increased exponentially, so has the need for people skilled at using and interacting with data to be able to think critically, and provide insights to make better decisions and optimize their businesses. ![]() Rotating and flipping layersīy pressing the menu button (the red frame in the image below) in the layer window, options such as “Flip horizontally” and “Flip vertically” appear, so press the option you want to execute. With this operation, you can save not only the display in a rotated state but the data as well. The entire canvas (all layers) will be rotated or flipped. You can choose “Rotate canvas to the left”, “Rotate canvas to the right”, “Flip horizontally”, and “Flip vertically” from the selection menu. Tips Let’s turn the canvas with our fingersīy rotating it with two fingers, you can set the display of the canvas to any angle you prefer. When you want to undo the flip or rotation, press “Revert the rotation” to return the canvas to its regular position. You can also rotate only the display by tapping the “Rotate left” and “Rotate right” in the display menu. You can flip only the display horizontally by tapping the “Flip horizontally” icon in the display menu. Default positionīased on this drawing, we will explain how each rotation works. MediBang Paint has three types of rotation and flipping. Redo: Tap with 3 fingers Tap the screen with three fingers at the same time to return to the previous state.

I think that it’s time for me to kick of some auricula appreciation time here, sharing with you not only how to grow them, but where to get some as well.Ĭlick below for more awesome photos and my tips: Still, the auricula captivates all who view them, and indeed, they can be ‘growable’ but many who live in the cooler parts of the country. Like many alpines, we can begin by looking at the wild species which themselves are notoriously fussy about all sorts of atmosphericy things – you know: billowing cold cloud mists at 9,000 feet, fresh glacial water rushing through the silty muck which they grow in, the perfect breezy, cold alpine meadow, and maybe a millimeter or 2 of Pika poop for bit of a snack – easy peasy if you live at a ski lodge high in the Alps, not so much if you live at sea level in Atlanta, or Boston for that matter. These plants were growing about 8,000 in a meadow only feet from the bottom of a glacier. ![]() Wild Primula auricula on the North Face(yeah, ‘that’ North Face), on the Eiger in the Bernese Alps of Switzerland from a trip I took there a couple of years ago. Although they are hardy to -30º, trying to keep them alive over winter requires more skill than simply being happy that one lives in a cold climate. Thirdly, the Auricula demands precise alpine conditions which evolve into tasks required for each season. So unless you live in Seattle, Vancouver or in Alaska, they are challenging to grow, to say the least. ![]() We have much to owe to the auricula, but just try to find one to grow today.Ĭaptivating, beguiling, astounding – choose your adjective, the primrose known as the auricula, or Primula auricula (I am sure spellcheck has changed this to auricle at least 88 times within this post!), remain rarely seen in most American gardens – but why? Well, the reasons are many: First, auriculas may be gorgeous, but they are not the easiest of plants to grow well, (or even to grow poorly for that matter), second, much of the climate here in North America is terrible for these true alpines, as they are more used to conditions found in the high and dry snow covered Alps. Commonly referred to as ‘auriculas’ by collectors, the plant has a rich history full of drama and quirky tales, but most impressive is that the auricula was one of the first ‘florist plants’, the term ‘florist’ even came from those who carried these rare plants in England hundreds of years ago before people began growing plants in pots. Few flowers are as amazing as the Auricula primroses. ![]() The distinction in tone extends to restaurant staff, too. For example, a review from French restaurant La Grenouille reads: “Old elegance at its best! Yes, the ambiance is lovely with all the fresh flowers” ( Alexandra C. liked the decor at the restaurant, “kitschy” is not a descriptor generally used in reviews serving modern Western cuisine. This quote from a reviewer commenting on popular Korean barbecue restaurant Jongro illustrates the bias: “we went for this authentic spot with its kitschy hut decor much like those found in Korea” (Celine N. ![]() But when talking about cuisines from Europe, the word “authentic” instead gets associated with more positive characteristics. This happens approximately 85 percent of the time. Reviews tend to reflect the racism already existing in the worldĪccording to my data, the average Yelp reviewer connotes “authentic” with characteristics such as dirt floors, plastic stools, and other patrons who are non-white when reviewing non-European restaurants. Reviews tend to reflect the racism already existing in the world people’s biases come into play. When reviewers picture authenticity in ethnic food, they mentally reference all the experiences they’ve had before with that cuisine and the people who make it - and most of the time, reviewers view those experiences, whether from personal interaction or from interacting with media, as not positive. Some reviewers called popular Korean barbecue spot Jongro “kitschy,” while others thought it simply looked Korean Jongro/ Yelp In particular, the large sample size of reviews reflects the dominant culture: one which is continuously and historically rooted in favoring the white, Eurocentric experience. While I don’t know anything about the specific demographics of the reviewers I studied, trends in the reviews I read reflect some of the more troubling themes seen on the internet these days. Seven percent of the 20,000 reviews I read - or 1,400 reviews - contained some sort of authenticity language. Over the course of six months, from September 2016 to March 2017, I read 100 reviews (written at any point prior to March 2017) for each of the top 20 Mexican restaurants on Yelp, recording how often commenters used the term authenticity or its synonyms like “legitimate” or the phrases like “this made me feel like I was in Mexico.” Then I kept going, ultimately reading 2,000 reviews for each of the nine other popular cuisines. I narrowed my data collection to reviews from New York, and focused my field even further by picking from Zagat’s top ten most popular cuisines in New York City: Mexican, Thai, Japanese, Chinese, French, Italian, Korean, and Indian, adding Mediterranean and Soul food based on recent dining trends. Of course, not all of these reviews support white supremacy, or even mention authenticity. There are 17 million restaurant reviews on Yelp from over 30 different countries. ![]() I would know: I have read and studied 20,000 Yelp reviews I can tell you a lot about what I concluded about the depths of the internet, but I’ll start with this one: The word “authentic” in food reviews supports white supremacism, and Yelp reviews prove it. I would know: I have read and studied 20,000 Yelp reviews - part of my thesis as a master’s student at New York University in the Food Studies program. Nowhere does that come into play more than on user-based review sites like Yelp. These claims, often used as markers of quality, are employed by diners and restaurateurs alike - often used by owners to evoke a homespun or faraway romanticism. Pundits claim that millennials crave it, restaurants boast authentic dining experiences, and Foursquare asks us to make judgments about it. What does authentic mean in this context? And how do I judge the authenticity of my grilled cheese sandwich? Woah, woah, woah - I asked her to slow down. We reviewed our current restaurant to explore how it worked: “Good for Kids?” Sure. Up for debate this lunch time was Foursquare she explained that the review-driven app allowed users to rate restaurants on a multitude of factors. Over grilled cheese sandwiches at a pub on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, a friend and I discussed our favorite topic - eating. ![]() Take note that this powder, like many protein powder options, is low in carbohydrates and fat, which are important nutrients for recovery after exercise.

When you boot your computer, there is an initial screen that comes up, in which your folders, documents, and software shortcuts are placed. The above code would generate a thumbnail from the first page of “your.pdf”, sized 200 pixels wide by an appropriately-proportioned height. Invoking the above code is done fairly easily simply call the PHP script from inside an image tag, like so: Finally, it reloads the thumbnail into an ImageMagick PHP object, and outputs the content to the browser. The above code assumes that you’ve provided appropriate permissions to the temporary directory (usually chmod 755 or chmod 777, depending on your level of courage), that you’ve saved the above code snippet in a file called thumbPdf.php, and placed this somewhere visible on your web server.Īfter obtaining parameters from GET, the code checks the destination temporary directory, and if the desired image is not present, it uses ImageMagick’s convert program to generate the PDF thumbnail, sized down to the appropriate proportion, and saves the image in the temporary directory. After installing ImageMagick, ImageMagick PHP bindings (which incidentally aren’t working, and a workaround was devised), and sleuthing some code, the following solution was determined: getFormat()) The requirement was fairly simple, but the execution was a little more involved.
