Today was quite productive. I was able to create some useful abstractions for processing the failure sequences that I had managed to systematically detect on Thursday.

Progress:

• Implement failure sequence analysis
  • Define Python dataclass to contain the result from processing a single failure sequence
  • Decompose higher level detection and handling function
• Configure LSP for python
  • Pyright
  • Pandas stubs

Great day today! As I feared, I needed to dedicate extra time to environment config after encountering some unexpected patterns in the data (likely due to a bug).

• Attempt to review peer’s survey on MFA
  • Unable due to access issue
• Configure pyright to work for this project
  • Suppress unnecessary “error” messages
  • Explicitly provide pandas-stubs path
• Organize code
  • Move unused/reference code to separate file
  • Create testing section in main for single log file (facilitates efficiency)
• Configure debugging and testing for python
  • nvim-dap-python
  • neotest
  • venv-selector [!NOTE]
  • “Poor man’s” print debugging was not effective enough
• Debugged fail analysis function
  • False positive fail sequences detected

    Week 8 Summary

I fell behind on recording daily progress! :( However, we will make do. For this, and all remaining weeks in the program, my updates will consist only of a weekly summary.

This week, I realized that my setup was lacking in tooling necessary to both conduct my analysis and write up my report. Accordingly, I configured necessary support for debugging in python, LaTeX development/compilation/previewing, and other extraneous features that improve my DX. While I am already quite behind on my project, it is still a bit frustrating to take care of all of this, slowing me down further. All of that said, I’m ready to start on my report next week and continue my analysis :D
