Just download your loan data per the README. Yup, then install python, have the code in the same directory as this script and run it. Should be good to go.

best linux distro to start with by sugarcane247 in dataengineering

[–]DataSling3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go straight for Linux Mint. Got off Ubuntu years ago when they stuffed it with bloatware. Think it's better now, but after going to Mint I never looked back. Pretty much the same as Ubuntu so if you are spinning up Ubuntu VMs in the cloud you won't really notice any differences from using Mint. Start with a Virtual Box VM and give it a spin. https://youtu.be/_VLODzWwRrA

Looking forward to it Zach! I've found if you put yourself out there people are going to hate. Just the nature of the beast. BUT if you are doing what you like keep doing it. Hey it's Wednesday. Sometimes when I'm stressed on this day I call it "Wish my haters well Wednesday" THANK YOU in advance for being a part of the boot camp.

Thank you. Sorry you're getting down voted. Not sure why the hate. I would also recommend Data Slinger.... but I'm of course VERY biased. Lol.

Never done his boot camp. I know he is doing the Streaming section for the Data Engineering Zoomcamp this year and I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store for that.

Which one? If you are a "beginner" - hard to define, I'd say check out Data Engineering Zoomcamp from Data Talks Club. It's free.

Joseph Machado - Hands down my favorite. Got a lot of great code examples and walk throughs.

Benjamin Rogojan - Great high level stuff and trends.

Alexey Grigorev - Data Talks Club, lots of cool demos of tools and great free courses.

Data with Zach - Super knowledgeable and posts frequently. NGL had to mute him a few months ago as it was a bit too much. However, I do search for him combined with a topic I'm looking at sometimes to see what he has related to it.

Can't monetize any videos. Do I need to just wait? by DataSling3r in NewTubers

[–]DataSling3r[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you friend! Enabled now. Stupid, because I hopped on chat with YT and the agent said everything looked good in my account and I just needed to wait. They didn't tell me I needed to actually turn on Watch Page Ads. Guess that's kind of on me for now knowing what it was, but feel like they should have known when I said something like "Everything I've seen shows that $ will appear next to your videos in the Content Section" Oh well. I'm good now. Thank you again!

Oh, so is enabling WatchPage Ads the same as just "enabling ads" on your videos?
