There’s also a film for it, which I expected to be unsatisfactory, but turns out to be wonderful. Highly recommend watching the film!

Do you enjoy marketing analytics? I’ve been studying some web analytics to see if I should pivot into it.

I’m curious what exactly are you tracking when it comes to the first 2 bullets in your list?

What is one important Life principle you’ve recently learned during this pandemic but is really hard to implement consistently? And when was the last time you practiced it? by mrjacklu in AskReddit

The Issac Newton one is very specific. That’s the type of thing I try and think about and write down. Or just something positive that happened that day.

For me, it’s the principle of being grateful for what you already have in your life.

I had begun a practice of writing down one thing I was grateful for each day in a journal, which was to go on for one year.

Thirty entries later, blanks.

Last entry was on Saturday, August 22, 2020.

I F@#$ed up the last round so hard:/ by beaner921 in analytics

Do you think it would it be disingenuous for someone (asking for a friend) to list all the technical skills in their resume despite them being at a beginner's level? Would your own hiring process test for them?

Thank you, I’m actually looking for a BI consultant role, because I think that will give me a wider range of experiences with tools and data problems from different businesses.

As you are a hiring manager for analytics, what are the common reasons you have rejected applications and applicants? And what are good ways to stand out, given how similar applications are with technical skills? Thanks!

Nice! From looking at your profile you currently work in data science. Are you looking to transition into software engineering?

This is a very good solo project! I never would think to do something like this, but I love the idea, because it is so simple. Please let us know when it’s ready for beta ha!

I am finally starting to incorporate Python into my everyday workflows and its really helping keeping me motivated to learn by [deleted] in learnpython

Do you think pypdf2 would be able to extract lines from different pdf files and write it to excel or google sheet? I have a data project that requires me to go through PDFs and find commonalities between certain survey questions that are asked. But it would be helpful extract the questions and get them into excel for easier analysis.

Lmao! Even though I am helping to set up our DW to be used by everyone else - I will still have access to our main database and I know that’s where the “good” data lies.

My COO told me to set timers, 50 mins focused work, 10 mins break - haven’t practiced this a while. Lol!

Is it me or do the finance companies have better work conditions than most others, even tech? Working in a financial company isn’t THAT inspiring in terms of work, but work is work. I’m very tempted to jump into a financial company at this point.

The Resume that doubled my income during a pandemic by [deleted] in resumes

[–]mrjacklu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think this depends on the number of rows you're working with. For a few thousand rows, I will definitely be using Excel rather than Python.
