S01E01. First Contact

Before the Future Came is a podcast that looks at the ideals of Star Trek as we voyage from one episode or film to the next, following a breadcrumb trail of motifs. How is the universe portrayed in Star Trek a truly egalitarian utopia, and how does the world subtly uphold the hegemonic values of our present day?

(1/2) Python for Data Science is a new book by Arthur Turrell that focuses on core data science applications with Python 🚀. The book is inspired by the R for Data Science book by Hadley Wickham and Garrett Grolemund and follows a similar structure. The book covers topics such as:
✅ Data wrangling and transformation
✅ Data visualization
✅ Working with spreadsheets, databases, web scraping and APIs
✅ Programming topics such as functions and iteration

The EIAapi R package is now on CRAN 🚀

The EIA API is one of my favorite resources for real-life time series data examples ❤️. I packaged a couple of datasets (USgas and USgrid packages), and it is going to be the main resource for my upcoming book on time series analysis and forecasting. The package provides a function to seamlessly query data from the EIA API v2 in a tidy format.

Have you ever thought about visiting all of the national parks in the U.S. in one epic road trip?

In 2016, data scientist Randy Olson optimized the route of 14,498 miles (23,333 km) which would take 2+ months. He even designed the journey as a circle so you can begin at any point & direction.
