A well-structured cheatsheet of #Python functions for beginners to intermediates. It makes for an excellent refresher.

"When you're newer in your Python journey, I recommend focusing on only 20 of these built-in functions in your own code (the 10 commonly known built-ins and the 10 built-ins that are often overlooked), in addition to the 5 debugging functions." https://t.co/lQtNSi196d #Python

Reality is resembling science fiction more and more everyday. With such potential for abuse, it's becoming more and more important to discuss safety and ethical issues surrounding AI.

Deepfake possibilities are getting more terrifying by the day. https://t.co/5oXO31bzpw

@adantro @refharper @wagonspeedracer @sanjeevanahilan Almost everything the human brain does can be seen as the transition and processing of information. If empathy can be broken down into these, then I don't see how anyone could reasonably argue that machines couldn't one day be capable of empathy.

@Jobob_80 There were some really interesting approaches to this problem. Well done all teams!

[Jack Tacchi @thelearnjourn]

We're getting some excellent feedback and handing out snacks at the People Power team in corner 3!

Quote of the day from one of our Innovation Week interviews: "Given a reasonable site in the UK, the cost of wind energy is less than that of any conventional method of energy generation. So why would would you build something that relies on gas or oil?"

[Jack Tacchi @thelearnjourn]

This was definitely the most bizarre and fun way of coming up with new ideas I've ever seen!

@RiBrCoUK @DataLabScotland @WoodMackenzie I'm not sure if there is a way in Scotland at the moment, although I think there are a few schemes in the making @LondonEVCompany @Uber

Would you be happier if the energy you used came from more renewable sources?
What are the top three things that might help you use more renewable energy sources and fewer traditional fuels?

Excited to meet my new team for the next three days! @DataLabScotland @WoodMackenzie #Data #TheDataLab #TDLMSc

@Jake_pryszlak It was a great day! Best takeaway was definitely to continue being proactive when speaking to people and companies. I had some really interesting conversations that I wouldn't have had otherwise.

[Jack Tacchi @thelearnjourn]

A strong end to a great day of professional learning and networking.

An early morning skills session with #MBNskills and #DataLabScotland is actually quite enjoyable when it's delivered by a very charismatic speaker.

Here is the second of two really #powerful and #inspirational videos about @comicrelief, @DFID_UK and @onebillion.
Together, they show how much everyone around the globe has in common; and how everyone benefits when we help each other:
