data.table work diary: Jun 24 - 28

  • June 24, ‘24:

1) Continued work on data.table.threads and reviewed #6201. (7 hours)

  • June 25, ‘24:

1) setDTthreads now requires a single numeric value rather than a data.table query (a fix for the efficiencyFactor == 0 case), updated docs as well (readme/messages). (7 hours)

2) Zoom meetings. (2 hours)

  • June 26, ‘24:

1) Reviewing content in the Raft, sent PRs to remove .DS_Store files and made a few subtle corrections to the testing infrastructure blog post @Raft. (4 hours)

2) Refactored a part of the conditional logic and removed the special case for optimal, not evaluating inside the setDTthreads call. (5 hours)

3) Zoom meeting with Doris. (1 hour)

  • June 27, ‘24:

1) Sent a PR @Raft to improve blog post titles, reviewed #6204. (3 hours)

2) Continuing with the blog review. (4 hours)

(Caught a few more typos and mistakes in other blog posts @Raft - will send more PRs when the current ones are merged or the load is lower for Kelly)

  • June 28, ‘24:

1) Tried to see if I can implement the RSS feed with the Quarto build. It does not natively generate all the required metadata in a feed, as I was trying to automate the generation of the output XML. (7 hours)
