Once we choose to institute ventilation standards and introduce new technologies like Far UVC lighting- and embrace masking as an easy, kind, and useful tool to control outbreaks- we can bring every nasty airborne pathogen under control the way we did cholera. https://x.com/jgownder/status/1616244796875481092

Would you expect to learn about presentation skills in a Data Analyst course?

eg. the part on Subqueries. This isn’t an easy concept to grasp, even for intermediate SQL users. Before you learn the syntax you need to really understand why! Why do you need to use a subquery?! The way it was taught in the course probably confused everybody who’s new.

Refreshing my data analytic skillz with the Google Data Analyst course. If I was a total beginner, I would be so lost! They just skimmed through the topics, jumping from one to another. So far… I would not recommend this course to anyone.

@LefterisJP LOL! It’s kinda funny when we don’t watch TV anymore and missed out on info like these. I was lucky I turned on the TV this morning when making snacks for my kids, they talked about it so I was prepared.
