Data Science. TileDB. Open Source. Quant Research. R. C++. Debian. Linux. Adjunct Clinical Professor, University of Illinois. Lots of coffee. And some running.
Congratulations to the @WUSTL Women's Club Soccer team for a third consecutive @NIRSARegionIV title with four wins and 12 goals at the Tulsa tournament--nice way to cap off another all-win season.
And a nice post-tourney picture with Anna flashing her infectious smile :)

Interesting times we live in.
@TheEconomist points out Open Souce as the net winner in the @IBM / @RedHat dance. If you have been around open source / linux since the 90s (esp. within finance / trading) then that is some sweet vindication.
Open Source wins. It's that easy.
Thanks for revisiting 'loading directories / transforming files'.
Fourteen months ago I had riffed about that too in a short lightning talk jokingly called "R for System Administration" -- slides are below. And unsurprisingly data.table wins. Again.
