Some really cool (programming) tech that I think are underrated right now and that have proven very useful to me this year:

I'm always disturbed when I use the line chart emojis 📈📉 Who would draw a red line going up and a blue line going down? Why?! 🤦‍♂️

Right after that amazing feeling of getting your code to work, there's this awful moment where you realize how much clean up it needs before anyone can possibly be allowed to see it. It's like reckoning with the mess in your kitchen after cooking a big meal.

Above anything else, employees want a work life balance. And how do employees expect to get this? Through flexible working measures. There’s no other way.

I’ve been writing SQL for ~15 years. I’ve seen hundreds of thousands of lines of code. Over time I developed a set of patterns and best practices I always come back to when writing queries. This is my attempt to decode them 👇👇👇

Lovely bit of light reading just arrived, I’ve been warned off trying to read it cover to cover and I’m obviously hugely disappointed about that 😅😴

a year working in Product at an EdTech late stage start-up has taught me a lot. Next week I move into a BI Engineer role at a FinTech start-up... time to become more active on here and expand my data network

After my brief stint in the insurance sector it is absolutely wild how much of the reporting ecosystem at certain companies relies on ancient tech. Excel VBA Macros and MS Access are considered cutting edge 😅

After some time away, starting a new job and getting a puppy (the latter is definitely more draining 😅), I'm back. Let's see what @fiverr is all about... fiverr.com/s2/dd30e1f58e #dataviz

Have done a fair bit of online learning this year, currently on @BorisPaskhaver’s Data Analysis with Pandas and Python on @udemy and can’t recommend it highly enough
