22+ hour, 52+ min ago   (548+ words) My first Python data project, and what it taught me about reading ratios like an analyst, not a spreadsheet. Before doing anything clever, I loaded the CSV with pandas and checked the basics: what columns existed, how many rows, what…...

4+ mon, 1+ week ago   (357+ words) Most conversations around AI still revolve around one fear: Job loss. Will roles disappear? Will automation replace people? Will entire industries shrink? It’s a valid concern. But the more I observe what’s actually happening… the less convinced I am that…...
