Inefficient and poorly managed companies might. I think it's obvious that women are often more competent then their peers, and their workplace value is obvious to anyone in leadership positions.

Um no. No one should have to justify the spot in an organization based on their culture, race, sexual orientation or gender. I think your scenario illustrates how ridiculous caring intensely about cultural background is for hiring situations. Wouldn't diversity of hobbies, or college education backgrounds be just as valid? Business should be about business, not crafting the perfect society. If you're a good person and a good fit for the role then you're a good fit.

I believe diversity is a admiral goal for an organization. I just don't think DEI policies give enough benefits to the groups they want to protect to be worth the negative second order effects.

If it becomes an AI homelab, that's not so crazy.

So not a solution you’re asking for but the remarkable e-ink tablet has a great set of apps for mobile devices and computers. It hosts your books in the cloud so you’ll always have access to stuff anywhere with internet. Automatically syncs across devices. Pretty slick.

Yep. Just install Linux, plug it into your router, set a static ip, and install the nas software ya want.

There are plenty of approaches. ChatGPT is great at debugging issues and helping ya through the setup. I did this with a raspberry pi and external usb drive the other week.

Then change your function to operate across the dataframe and return a different dataframe?

You can add multiple columns at the same time or do a merge statement of some kind

Be more optimistic friend.

Government will continue to do surveillance but they can be constrained by the legal system. Corpos will build ai to sell you bullshit off whatever data they can get on you but you can block their ads and leave their platforms. Encryption is math and can’t be stopped by a law. UK law makers won’t be able to enforce their law even if it’s passed.

It’s cheaper than ever to run your own server, and will continue to get cheaper. Manage your own digital footprint and work towards decentralizing the web. Don’t worry so much about other people, they’ll come around eventually.

Why do you want to use a web sql interface? Imo even the fancy proprietary offerings of companies like snowflake and databricks aren’t that great.

Better to use a regular database query tool like dbeaver https://dbeaver.io or datagrip https://www.jetbrains.com/datagrip/

But you can run PostgreSQL in docker https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres/. Looks like there’s a web ui tool also but never used it https://postgresqlstudio.org

Then go for it. It could just be a mistake. It might be a sign they’re disorganized and not as professional as you want.
