Eurostat built a dashboard to show the socioeconomic indicators of EU during the corona virus period.
It is seen that most indicators are recovering.

“Everyone wants to do the model work, not the data work”: Data Cascades in High-Stakes AI
TL;DR:
- Data quality is crucial in any AI especially for those with high-stakes.
- Many data work are overlooked easily: politics (some data entries are not recorded or misrecorded), human in the loop of data quality interventions for cleaning and wrangling but upstream data creation shall be controlled well too, etc
- Data Cascades: how the issues are cascading from upstream to downstream should be clear.
> Data Cascades: compounding events causing negative, downstream effects from data issues, resulting in technical debt over time.

ConnectedPapers is now integrated into arXiv.
This new perspective of references is often overlooked. It is not a gimmick at all.

I find vscode remote-ssh very helpful. For some projects with frequent maintenance fixes, I prepared all the required environment on a remote server. I only need to click on the remote-ssh connection to connect to this remote server and immediately start my work.
This low overhead setup makes me less reluctant to fix stuff.
It is also possible to connect to Docker containers. By setting up different containers we can work in completely different environments with a few clicks.
This is crazy.

We have been testing a new connected online work space using discord. Whoever is bored by home office can connect to a shared channel and chat.
Discord allows team voice chat and multiple screensharing. By adding bots to the channel, the team can share music playlists. Discord allows detailed adjustment of the voices so anyone could adjust volumes of any other users or even deafen himself/herself. So it is possible to be connected for the whole day.
It seems that jump in and chat at anytime and share working screen make it fun for WFH.
