Data Insights #202
Is Blue Sky the new place to be?
If you remember waaay back to the start of the year, I made a commitment to share 10 new articles with you in 2024. I did caveat this with no promises on the timing and frequency of this newsletter (and articles) and here we are, 10 months later and only the one delivered. ICYMI, I shared 8 takeaways from Data Science interviews! If you’re on the hunt for a new job, Data Science or otherwise, go take a look!
So, a big hi again! 👋 Thank you for sticking around. It seems like SubStack has changed a lot in my absence!
🛬 Articles Incoming
I haven’t forgotten about the 10 articles. In fact, I’ve got so many ideas swirling around in my head, I don’t know where to begin BUT next week, I will be joining a Technical Writing course and I can’t wait to get started! I hope the course will focus me into getting things out of my head and online for you and make me a better writer in the process!
If you want to learn more about moving from Data Science to Data Engineering, how tech certifications work, where to start on your data journey and deep dives into some tools & packages, then keep your eyes on your inbox for the rest of the year!
🦋 Data Community
One reason for sending you this quick update is that, inspired by a few posts I saw on LinkedIn, I just joined BlueSky. A lot of familiar faces from (old) data twitter have moved over there and it looks to be the new data community hangout.
Go check out the hashtag #dataBS, to find data people and posts - I already stumbled across several useful tips and articles scrolling through.
