92% of Data Scientists Use Online Resources: Is It Cheating or the Norm?

In a recent survey, 92% of data scientists admitted to using online resources like Stack Overflow and GitHub repositories in their professional work. This statistic highlights a common practice within the industry. Professionals often refer to documentation and previous code snippets, including their own Jupyter notebooks, when coding. For instance, a typical workflow might involve using a random forest classifier with specific hyperparameters. The code might look like this: `rf = RandomForestClassifier(random_state=42)` followed by setting up a dictionary of hyperparameters and defining scoring metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and f1. The use of `GridSearchCV` with parameters like `cv=4` and `refit=’recall’` is also common. These findings suggest that relying on external resources is not only normal but integral to efficient and effective work in data science.

@NBA2K @Beluba please look into these users. The cheating is at an all time high especially with Xbox players. Just look at the 4th quarter. They didn’t miss no matter what and we couldn’t make no matter what.

Watching haiX video and coming from someone who was in the CS cheating scene around 2015-2019 : DO NOT GIVE THOSE PEOPLE YOUR INFORMATION. THEY WILL USE IT AGAINST YOU. THEY WILL LEAVE YOU VULNERABLE AND BLACKMAIL YOU.

You let cheaters play in your events knowing they are cheating, played the game normally didn’t key or anything plus loads of people do it when you don’t have to stream they just don’t get caught I didn’t care enough to hide it. Also 30% ppl have done 10x worse and play weekly.
