Astronomer H-R diagram

It was developed to show the relationships between the temperature (or colour) of a star and its luminosity. The other week I saw a tweet referring to someone as an "astronomy media star". This interesting stellar classification got me thinking about an alternative version of the H-R diagram. In my alternate reality I imagined a version classifying astronomers* and so, after a little consultation with other astronomers (thanks Sarah, Tess, Mike, Paul and Amanda) and some free time**, I present...

Writing a LinkedIn Profile. LinkedIn is, for many professionals, the essential professional networking tool of the moment.

Writing a LinkedIn Profile

There is no question that potential employers and new contacts are likely to look at your LinkedIn profile before they meet you. LinkedIn is also a really good way of keeping up to date with colleagues who you wouldn’t describe as friends exactly, but who you would like to stay in touch with professionally. So what does it take to write a really good LinkedIn profile? It’s surprisingly easy if you follow a few simple guidelines. LinkedIn is a professional networking tool.

Fancy Styled Borders in LaTeX. Heavens-Above. What PhDs do wrong (and right!) when applying for Data Science jobs. As a team with an opening for data scientists, we see lots of applications from people with quantitative PhDs.

What PhDs do wrong (and right!) when applying for Data Science jobs

As someone who did a PhD myself, I’m really excited about what someone with this level of research experience can bring to our team. Getting a PhD in a quantitative hard or social science field requires tenacity, long term planning, a mix of broad technical skills, and clarity of communication about why your work matters to different audiences.

Who wouldn’t want someone like that on their team? Nearly half of people working as data scientists today have PhDs, though they make up less than 2% of people in the US over 25, so your academic training will command some attention: “The inventor of LinkedIn’s People You May Know was an experimental physicist. Unfortunately, there’s a gap between the rhetoric pushing PhDs to industry jobs and what is necessary to actually get those jobs. Creating a great data science resume. I hear a familiar story from a lot of aspiring data scientists: “I have sent out my resume to 25 companies, and I haven’t heard back from any of them!

Creating a great data science resume

I have pretty good skills, and I think I have a pretty good resume. I don’t know what’s going on!” Your resume probably sucks My immediate conclusion after hearing your story: your resume probably sucks. If you are not getting any responses from any companies, and your skills are a reasonable match for the job description, then it almost certainly means that you are getting sabotaged by a bad resume. Installing some R packages – Allan Costa. I’m doing Coursera’s Specialization in Data Science and right now I’m in the third course of it, called Getting and Cleaning Data.

Installing some R packages – Allan Costa

In order to answer this week quiz, I needed to install some R packages to load files in different formats. It took me some time to do it, so I’ll document my steps here for anyone that may have trouble doing it. Installing xlsx package. Intro to Machine Learning Course.

Finding better boundaries Let's revisit the 73-m elevation boundary proposed previously to see how we can improve upon our intuition.

A Visual Introduction to Machine Learning

Clearly, this requires a different perspective. By transforming our visualization into a histogram, we can better see how frequently homes appear at each elevation. While the highest home in New York is 73m, the majority of them seem to have far lower elevations. Hired - Marketplace Recruiting Software for Hiring Top Talent. Who are your candidates?

How to Shoot the Night Sky (Introduction to Astrophotography) The following post on photographing the night sky is by jgomez65 – one of dPS’s forum members. Several people asked me to post a simple tutorial on how I took some night sky pictures.

I am not an astrophotographer in any way, shape or form, nor do I have any expensive equipment. I simply read several tutorials, picked a dark spot on the beach and tried to do my best. Anyway, here is how I did it. 1. Torfs Brauer-Short-R-Intro. RStudio - Download RStudio. Installing R in Ubuntu.

Amada by RafaelSdeSouza. Welcome to the AMADA - Analysis of Muldimensional Astronomical DAtasets AMADA allows an iterative exploration and information retrieval of high-dimensional data sets. This is done by performing a hierarchical clustering analysis for different choices of correlation matrices and by doing a principal components analysis in the original data. Additionally, AMADA provides a set of modern visualization data-mining diagnostics. The user can switch between them using the different tabs.
