Programming Throwdown, Episode 145 Unsupervised Machine Learning.

0:20.6

Take it away, Patrick. Welcome to to another as we've termed it

0:24.4

duo episode that's just jason and myself no special guest this time it's because we have a lot to say

0:30.1

we have it all pent up so expect a high energy episode today that's right we'll start off by talking

0:35.8

about email what's more spoiler alert i do do tell those people in my meetings. I'm like, if you're an afternoon meeting,

0:43.2

I'm typically more ramped up and like, you know, kind of, you think you'd be tired by the end of

0:47.4

the day, but I get kind of like riled up about stuff throughout the day. Yeah, I wonder if maybe

0:52.4

we're more common because I feel like, isn't that more natural? You wake up, your brain still hasn't really like kicked in yet. Maybe. I don't know. And then I just crashed at the end of the day. But that's another problem for another time. So is Jason foreshadowed? We're going to talk a bit about email. So this is actually a topic Jason and I were talking about, so we decided to talk about it on air, which is if you are not in a large organization, maybe this is a foreign thing to you.

1:20.7

But most folks, I would say, I've never looked at it actually.

1:23.8

But I would assume a lot of people work in big companies.

1:26.7

And in big companies, you get a lot of email, a lot of email, not junk mail, not span, although I guess you could, but at my company, they're pretty good about filtering that out. Just like emails from random teams, random automated announcements, automated meeting notices, everything just gets pushed to email. And it's important

1:46.4

to stay organized using either rules in your client or on the server or just making sure you put

1:55.2

stuff into various folders or flagging stuff. I think everyone has a different scheme. I got criticized actually by my kids

2:02.2

because I have like over a thousand unread messages. Oh, see, I can't handle that.

2:07.0

Oh, no. Oh, you're going to criticize me too. But I have a method. Like it is, I'm going to say like

2:11.9

methodical. Like I do have a method to my madness. Like it is organized for me. I can't not treat incoming email.

2:19.3

Actually, wait, wait, wait, hang on. So, wait, do you have a thousand unread because you,

2:24.6

like, you might somehow know the last one you looked at, you know, the subject line? So you actually

2:30.1

read them all. They're just marked them. They're all, like, handled. Okay, okay. Okay. So it's not that they're not looked at. It's just like sometimes, like you said, I kind of move the, I'll move the meter forward. This is on me. This is bad habit. I would not recommend it. Like you said, I'll move the high watermark forward as like what I've kind of read through by looking at summaries and most of me don't need to do anything,

2:51.4

but I don't necessarily take the extra few milliseconds, seconds, whatever, to kind of put those

2:56.0

in an appropriate folder or get them out of my inbox.

2:58.4

So then every so often I have just piled through and via searching, you know, call all the
