⚫️⚪️ Andrea Barzagli – "My career has only one title: JUVENTUS."
"I was fading. I no longer had that spark in my eyes or any reason to get out of bed in the morning. I felt distant from everything: from my city, from my own identity, even from myself.
In Palermo, I regained a bit of peace. Lippi even considered me as an alternative for the World Cup—an enormous honor. Then came Wolfsburg: a strong team, but an environment that burned me out from the inside.
I was 30 years old, and I felt like a football wreck: without enthusiasm, without motivation, without the strength to fight. I was a defender who couldn't even defend himself anymore.
It was 2011.
Dinner with friends. My phone vibrates, rings, won't let up. I ignore it. I thought it was someone from the club—and I didn't have the energy or the headspace to talk to anyone.
I get home around 10 p.m., check the missed calls… and suddenly my breath catches: DEL PIERO.
I call back, my hands shaking:
— "Alex, am I bothering you?"
— "Come on, Barza. I need to ask you something: how are you feeling physically?"
I was speechless. I mumble:
— "Physically? Not like back when we won the World Cup…"
He laughs. Then he pulls out the ace up his sleeve:
— "Juventus asked me to recommend a defender. I gave them your name. Get on a plane and come. We need someone to lead the defence. We need you."
I was dumbstruck.
As a kid, I'd watched Del Piero destroy opponents and light up stadiums—and now this icon was calling me to bring me back to life.
— "I can't do it, Alex. I think I'm done."
Silence. Then an explosion:
— "Done?! Are you crazy? You haven't even started showing what you've got inside you. Come to Turin. We need to be reborn. And you need to be reborn with us."
I try to protest:
— "I'm 30 years old, I don't have the hunger anymore."
— "30 years old? That's right in the middle of the road. You've got great seasons ahead of you. Especially at Juventus."
That conversation didn't just convince me.
It saved me.
Even with a thousand lives, I'd never be able to thank Del Piero enough.
At Juventus, I didn't just play—I found myself.
I lifted my head, I fought, I discovered the true essence of football.
Talk about Real Madrid, Barcelona… Juventus can't be compared to anyone.
It's a universe of its own.
One day, Fiorentina offered me a higher salary—400 thousand euros more. I turned it down—without even thinking for a minute—because this isn't about money.
My story, my soul, my name—they were already etched somewhere else.
My career has one title: JUVENTUS."

Website @data2speak ini seru juga. Isinya macem-macem, ada link ke kursus gratis Power BI, gallery dashboard yang bisa kita intip bagaimana desainnya, juga event gede tahunan.
Saya jabarin ya di trid ini, sekaligus berita bagus soal kompetisi dashboard tahun ini.
Beberapa waktu lalu, Giorgio Chiellini memutuskan untuk gantung sepatu.
Tentang beliau, admin jadi ingat kisah legendaris persahatannya Chiellini dengan seorang fans Juve asal Indonesia.
Izin ya mas @poncotempo, menceritakan kisah sampean dengan Chiellini😁🙏

Yuk belajar sedikit mengenai Pandas.
Pandas itu adalah Python package yang digunakan untuk memanipulasi data. Biasa dipakai oleh ahli data pada saat menganalisis data.
Berikut adalah syntax yang sering digunakan pada saat menggunakan Pandas:
import pandas as pd
✨DataFrame Creation:
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
Membuat dataframe object dari existing object yang sudah ada. Untuk data dari luar, bisa memakai function untuk data importing.
✨Data Inspection:
df.head(), df.describe()
Mengintip row awal data dan membuat statistik simpel dari dataset.
✨Data Cleaning:
df.dropna(), df.fillna(value)
Membuang data yang terdapat missing value (dropna) atau mengisi missing data dengan suatu value (fillna)
✨Column Operations:
df['new_col'] = df['col1'] + df['col2']
Melakukan kalkulasi antara kolom.
✨Data Filtering:
df[df['col'] > value]
Membuat subset data berdasarkan kondisi yang diberikan.
✨Grouping and Aggregation:
df.groupby('col').agg({'col2': 'mean'})
Mengelompokan data berdasarkan suatu kolom dan membuat agregasi statistik nya.
✨Merging Data:
pd.merge(df1, df2, on='col')
Menggabungkan dua dataset atau lebih berdasarkan key column yang diberikan.

Melewati minggu pertama di 2024 dengan membuat catatan pribadi dan review kesehatan keuangan rumah tangga. Setelah obrak abrik materi kuliah financial planning, ketemu beberapa rasio keuangan cocok untuk digunakan.
Ketiga lebih disiplin lagi dalam berinvestasi dan cek dashboard biar kalo ada pengeluaran di luar budget bisa ketauan tiap bulannya. Keempat, explore sebanyak mungkin peluang haha. Semoga 2024 bisa lebih bersahabat, semangat lur!
Kesimpulannya, rasio kesehatan saat ini aman, udah ada bayangan kira-kira bisa ambil cicilan di angka berapa. Kedua pengeluaran perlu direview lagi terutama di kategori yang di atas budget.
