Lately, I&#x27;ve been enjoying a lot of posts in this blog right here:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing</a><p>My company just hired some new VPs from Amazon, and the writings in that blog convey a bit of the Amazon WOW. It&#x27;s pretty insightful stuff.<p>Also, many posts from Julia Evans :D<p>More concretely, here are a few blog posts I go back to occasionally:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;doordash.engineering&#x2F;2019&#x2F;02&#x2F;20&#x2F;experiment-rigor-for-switchback-experiment-analysis&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;doordash.engineering&#x2F;2019&#x2F;02&#x2F;20&#x2F;experiment-rigor-for...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unofficialgoogledatascience.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;12&#x2F;humans-in-loop-forecasting-integrating.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unofficialgoogledatascience.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;12&#x2F;humans-i...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unofficialgoogledatascience.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;10&#x2F;practical-advice-for-analysis-of-large.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.unofficialgoogledatascience.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;10&#x2F;practica...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing&#x2F;ml-design-docs&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing&#x2F;ml-design-docs&#x2F;</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing&#x2F;what-i-do-before-a-data-science-project-to-ensure-success&#x2F;#first-draw-the-map-to-the-destination-one-pager" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;eugeneyan.com&#x2F;writing&#x2F;what-i-do-before-a-data-scienc...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fharrell.com&#x2F;post&#x2F;addvalue&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fharrell.com&#x2F;post&#x2F;addvalue&#x2F;</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fharrell.com&#x2F;post&#x2F;stat-ml2&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fharrell.com&#x2F;post&#x2F;stat-ml2&#x2F;</a>
