  • #til2024 Embarrassingly Parallel
    • A workload that is parallelizable with little or no effort because the tasks are independent and require no communication
    • They are different from distributed workloads that require communication between tasks

    Weird use of "embarrassingly" because it didn't sound good at first, which the common alternative term "pleasingly" parallel is aiming to fix

  • Polars #data-science #programming
    • https://docs.pola.rs/user-guide/
    • Alternative to Pandas
    • Similar to spark, with lazy evaluations and streaming to optimize memory on large datasets
    • It is entirely based on Arrow datatypes and backed by Arrow memory array
      • Except String is actually LargeUtf8
      • :o explicit string type!!
