I would recommend... statistics. If you already know Python, learning how to do the same things in a different environment doesn't really add a skill to your resume. It probably means you can apply for more jobs/work on different

So firstly, you can use R in Jupyter in the exact same way you use Python (ju-pyt-er stands for Julia, Python, R). Then R also had RMarkdown which allows to have notebooks with executable cells (code chunks) and they play much nicer with ve

I don't think that giving appropriate advice is disrespectful of one's right to make decisions. If a friend asks you for tips on how to do something stupid and self-harming (according to your judgment), it's okay to say &quot

Last Podcast on the Left has a multi-part episode on Jonestown - it shows how his ego goes unchecked even from the beginning of his life and how he slowly prepares the people in his cult to take their own lives one day. Definitely worth a l
