@JessicaCalarco 🙋🏻‍♀️ Re-entered the workforce two years early because I couldn’t manage the stress of being at home. Luckily I have in-person preschool and elementary options that feel safe. It’s better, but not great. Husband is the one overtaxed working from home.

@uscensusbureau In the example, what if I want to see the median household income for ALL downtown Boston tracts combined, not for each tract individually?

[Shae Lynn Watt @ShaeLynnWatt]

@uscensusbureau I just watched the "neighborhoods" data gem, which is great, but... is there any way to get the data for those tracts combined? https://t.co/7GvIg3SnAe

[Shae Lynn Watt @ShaeLynnWatt]

@drob Serious question from an R newbie... is there a reason why one of these is actually better? I thought I read where dots might cause confusion with function calls?

Day 18: @codecademy R:Data frames. Not as much as I would have liked. Glad I carved out time at all.

@imheiditag @lizkaminetz @PantsuitPolitic I think they got stuck in a hard situation where they came to the conversation, years ago, on different sides of many issues... but then that changed.

Fair enough, if you are looking for a Trump supporter and a Biden supporter, this isn’t where to find it.

Reminder that in precarious moments, it is important to triply check information. Make sure it's being reported across multiple credible outlets before sharing. Do not speculate or amplify speculation.

@mstiefvater “It’s late for that, Puck” is what jumped to mind, but there are too many favorites here to pick just one.

Day 16 & 17: @codecademy intro to stats in R module. It’s all stuff I’ve done before but I’m absorbing it more thoroughly this time!

Day 15: Finished the project for the intro to programming in R from @Codecademy. Figured out how to upload a markdown file to my blog!

Day 14 (I’m ignoring the days I focused on my interview project since they were off my learning plan):
@Codecademy Intro to R 🙌 using my new, colorful note-taking method

In case you’re getting ready for an interview, I was glad I spent a lot of time practicing answers out loud. I didn’t get any questions I had directly practiced for, but I was WAY more fluent than I would have been without the practice.

#100DaysOfCode #66daysofdata
Day &:$;! (maybe I should start over 🤔): One data analyst interview under my belt... I find out Friday.

Tomorrow, back to my regularly scheduled learning program.

@carelesslesbian @mstiefvater 1 goes to 4 in stress, so that interpretation makes sense. I think when Blue isn’t stressed, she’s more defined by having integrity than being unique.

Help, #DataScience people! 🙏

I have a column of census tract geoids, and I’d like to display them in a #Tableau map. How? Lat/long? Where can I find that conversion? I don’t have addresses.

#100DaysOfCode #66daysofdata Day 13: Viz day! I say myself down and watched all the #Tableau tutorial videos. They make it seem so easy! I hope it feels straightforward with real data 😬

@1vs3 @LMalloy @JessicaCalarco @DrHoy480 @suddaland @AZelechoski Yes! 🙌

[Shae Lynn Watt @ShaeLynnWatt]

@JessicaCalarco I feel like I’m reconciling myself with this idea every moment of every day... things were easier (for me) before, but were they better? Let’s move forward!

[Shae Lynn Watt @ShaeLynnWatt]

@McDIU05 @JessicaCalarco That would make sense, but in that example one student was told to sit quietly in the chair for 3 minutes and the other was told to leave the room. So, not sure it’s actually making public safety headway.

[Shae Lynn Watt @ShaeLynnWatt]

@M_L_Rogers @geekethics @kzernike I agree that fire drills at home are a good idea... but orchestrated by me, not a teacher on the computer who��s never been in my house. (Thanks for the reminder that my family is due for a drill!)
