AI in Software Development

-
Even before AI, I would have thought that work being done now would be automated, and of course, AI will replace some work - since developers automate tasks themselves, using rules, patterns, and processes - but the idea is always to stay ahead of the 'crushing wave' of new tech, often automating oneself out fo a job, thereby keeping your job...

BTW, this mentions interesting tools leveraging AI to help coders, rather than simply replacing them, since the latter is not currently a realistic scenario.

Charting Correlation Matrices in R

-

I noticed this very simple, very powerful article by James Marquez, Seven Easy Graphs to Visualize Correlation Matrices in R , in the Google+ community, R Programming for Data Analysis , so thought to give it a try, since I started some of my current analyses a decade ago by generating correlation matrices in Excel, which I've sometimes redone and improved in R. Some of these packages are only designed for display, or as extensions to ggplot2: corrplot: Visualization of a Correlation Matrix GGally: Extension to 'ggplot2' ggcorrplot: Visualization of a Correlation Matrix using 'ggplot2' These two are focused on more complex analysis: PerformanceAnalytics: Econometric tools for performance and risk analysis psych: Procedures for Psychological, Psychometric, and Personality Research As for data, I used Hofstede's culture dimensions, limited to developed countries. Using a broader and larger set of of countries would significantly reduce the correlation...

Cultural Dimensions and Coffee Consumption

Photo by Viktoria Alipatova from Pexels Responding to a Treehugger article, Why Americans will never love tea as much as coffee , I initially wrote my personal preferences for tea and coffee , ending with, BTW, this has just given me an idea for comparing Hofstede's cultural dimensions and coffee and tea consumption. Afterward, I did some analysis in Excel, then ran the same processes in R using Visual Studio, then converted that to a Jupyter Notebook on Microsoft's Azure Notebooks . Although this analysis is limited to 45 countries that have Hofstede's Cultural Dimensions , as well as per capita consumption for both coffee and tea, it would seem that coffee consumption correlates with power distance, individuality, and masculinity. Tea had small correlations with the dimensions and sometimes in the same direction as coffee. A fuller analysis is available on Microsoft's Azure Notebook , but some quick findings: Higher power distance, lower coffee consumption...

Developers in New York City by Zip Code

Photo by Lukas Kloeppel from Pexels In 2016, after reading a Dice Insight article, I downloaded data that had technology professional numbers by zip code, along with density. A recent NY Times article How Big Tech Is Turning New York Into a Silicon Valley Rival prompted me to resurrect the data, decorate it a bit with neighborhood names, and then import it into Google Maps , which was surprisingly easy. The original data is available in Excel .
