What is the analyst equivalent to writers block? I have it. I have it all laid out, yet when it comes to moving past analysis design, getting data, EDA and tables and charts, and moving this to a report, I. Just. Can't. I even have it all written down in my notes already...

The @AnalyticsHour is fantastic, just saying. Quickly became one of my top 5 listened to podcasts.

I feel like an asteroid missed us by 500 miles, sending debris that killed millions worldwide, and our response was to sigh and say “whew, glad that risk is over” and then do nothing about future asteroids

There is not enough time to keep up with all the good podcasts out there. Even on 1.5x

I have this issue with our team and Tableau; biz logic is stuck in the viz layer, and we can't do much data work on it like query or create triggers on it. Get the data right, then make it look pretty and show it off

completely nerding out over here realizing I can run jupyter lab in chrome app mode. I don't use chrome for a browser, but I just downloaded it and dedicated it entirely to python. I detest having to use my browser as an editor for anything

@yvonnezlam And working in MDM, it becomes a data quality issue if you're not on top of it. And it is SO SOLVABLE!

[Anna Decker-Wilson @AnnaDWilson]

@yvonnezlam Yes! I get it that in the 80s there was no diacritics support but we are way past that time now. All systems should handle diacritics. Yet it's one of those things that the anglicized world is perfectly fine with. "There is no ROI" yet we feel a constant micro aggression

[Anna Decker-Wilson @AnnaDWilson]

@yvonnezlam Its' the worst when I can't put in the diacritic, and then have to guess which version will pass a validation: should ä be a, ae, or aa? Dumb. As a customer it makes me think less of the business
