@raymondh Normally I just get them to insert the path into sys.path.

New in @SnowflakeDB's SQL: GROUP BY ALL

This saves time and prevents errors, as the compiler figures out the columns that need aggregation.

E.g., in the pic GROUP BY ALL takes cares of the query - instead of "GROUP BY tag, answered, year" or the obscurer "GROUP BY 1, 3, 4".

Anyone else get caught by this everynow and then?

Ok quick python Friday quiz: "fail or no fail"
"a = list[str]([1, 3, 4])"

This is potentially the coolest #visualisation I have ever made of all the flights I have ever been on!!! All kudos to #d3 and @mbostock for the actual implementation! https://t.co/OYgRlD55Xp

[Simon Ward-Jones @SimonWardJones]

Great to be at the @SnowflakeDB #DataCloudWorldTour. The Python SnowPark paired with streamlit looks cool!

@redblobgames A while back I made a similar ordering of hexagons (spiralling outward) and I was also amazed to finally solve a quadratic since school!!! https://t.co/fBPTfQkibc

[Simon Ward-Jones @SimonWardJones]

Working on explaining gini imputrity with #d3 and hexagons. Strangely mesmerising to watch though! #DataScience #DataVisualization

[Simon Ward-Jones @SimonWardJones]

And for #bash

[Simon Ward-Jones @SimonWardJones]

I always forget what #zsh config files are run on startup. Does this simplify things?
