I wish that I could reveal the name of the organization that I taking on the position with. They are in a rough shape.
The organization provided project specification but not architectural specification. The consulting company has been working with them for almost 3 years now and providing solutions architect services.
I am going to take on a senior role in a really old organization. They dont have any ADRs. They informed me that they did the architecture design using contractors/consultants so they never provided it. If we pay for their service, aren't we supposed to be the owner of the ADRs?
In my previous company, we owned the ADRs from external contractors and consulants.

Who is the owner ADR(architectural decision records)?Assume that I am a company and I hired one of the big company (AWS, GCP or Azure) to build some cloud products. Their solutions architect must keep have an ADR right? if yes, do I own the right to keep the ADR after the completion or they go back to the company we hired?I would really appreciate any feedback on this.
Am I the only one who is having issues seeing the recorded session?

Hello all,
I am currently enrolled in MSc in Data Science and came across the concept of Hadoop. This interests me and I want to be good at it. I am wondering if anyone can advise me on:
1. Is it worth to have Apache Spark certification with MSc in DS? Should I invest my time in AWS or GCP certification instead?
2. Which certification is good in your opinion (data bricks or Cloudera)?
3. How...

I would really appreciate if any of you can give advice on how to prioritize my learning.I work full-time and currently enrolled in MSc in Data Science part-time. I need to learn Python for my next course and I need to learn Linear Algebra to understand some papers for work. For my personal pleasure I am working on a trading research using R.Should I split my everyday free time into 1 hr for...

Good day everyone,I have my data stored in dropbox, but would love to access it via cloud IDE such as rstudio.cloud or cloud9. Is there any way to do this?Thanks,

I am taking some data science courses. Is there any link between data science and cyber security? and where can I learn cyber security stuff?

I recently started to explore quantopian. Do you plan on integrating R lang?
I didn't know if d3 was a thing. Do you have experience with it?

http://www.r2d3.us/visual-intro-to-machine-learning-part-1/I came across this website and I love how interactive it is. How can I build a website like this?
I like the name Ceylon...simply because of my nationality. I am going to follow this thread just to see what kind responds we will be getting here.
What made you want to hire that person?
I was in the similar position where I built the tech and the co-founder had the idea. The bottom line is that whether you sign the contract or not, if you have gotten compensated for your work through shares or money, then the IP is owned by the company.
If you think your co-founder is going to take you to court, then don't do it. I learned my lesson that fighting it in the court is expensive and useless. Only person that is going to win would be the lawyer. You are never going to get an investor with a pending lawsuit. Every bit of money you are going to earn, you will spend it on the lawyers and its not cheap. Whether you are right or wrong, the lawyer needs to prove it. Sometimes they can have legitimate case sometimes they don't. But it doesn't matter...it will take years before it get settled. Until then you will be living off of whatever you got left from the lawyer's fees.
I have been there. Not worth it.
Either that or Aliexpress. Not into clothing brands. My brother who works for a startup always wear t-shirts that are given by his company.
Costco. Blue jeans and white t-shirt and a hoodie.
I spend about min an hour a day. The general timeline is about 4 hrs per lectures, reading 1 hr reading (mostly optional) and 3 hrs per assignment. I take longer time on assignment since I am new. Sometimes I have to watch lectures over and over again to understand. In general I spend about 10 hrs/week.
I don't think there is any value in paying for the certification, since its an introductory course.
I am taking Machine Learning on coursera by Andrew Ag. Initially I was intimidated by the idea of ML as I had no prior programming experience. I started learning data science stuff less than 6 months ago. I started to feel motivated and confident about ML by taking this course. I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the link. I am just exploring whats out there before I commit to the program.
Thank you very much.
I am going to use ethernet to work on linux. I am taking some courses in data science and at the meantime I am interested in knowing the Hadoop eco-system and play with it.
Cloudera and Horton works are expensive. Any alternate options?

I have started to take some basic level data science courses on edx.org. Then I came across Hadoop and I would really love to learn this. I have the following questions and I would really appreciate if you can help me with this:1. What is the best source to start learning Hadoop? I was thinking of starting with Udacity or Big data university.2. Do I need Linux to run Hadoop? I am having wifi...
I am taking Microsoft's course at the moment. I find it as more statistics course and focused on data science. I cant comment anything on Andrew's course, but I heard it is pretty solid. I am beginner and have no programming experience, therefore I am starting with Microsoft's course to get some basic understanding. Hope this was useful to you.
I will be in your boat soon after my military retirement. When I need to look up for someone, I am expecting it to be you my friend!
The challenging part of about military career is that your responsibilities changes very frequently. My current role Director of equipment maintenance and logistics, I can get tasked to be the operations officer for a mission the next day or be a course administrator for 2 months.
Thanks for the feedback :)

I would really appreciate if I can get some of your opinion on this. Thanks in advance!https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B08jIt6qOcQhalc0bXZfUGhJcGM/view?usp=sharing
I upgraded to Windows 10 twice, both times I had wifi issues. So I downgraded it.
I agree with the above statement. In the startup world, one person is doing at least 5 people's job. In my startup, I acted as COO, CTO, product manager, contract manager, team lead and more. If someone arrives 5 mins late to a meeting he/she is technically wasted 5 people's time. So that 5 mins wasted gets translated into 25 mins. This is why it is important to have delegation of authority and boundaries. I am now mentoring a startup of 7 students, its been 4 weeks since they came to a conclusion on their marketing campaign.
Committee gives you a perspective from different people. Which is valuable! Have the meetings if and only if you or them have to go outside the delegated authority to find a solution.
