This preprint evaluated bot-detection strategies in research and has a lot of useful insights. But the most interesting part to me is that their study had 19,467 responses, and they eliminated 99.17% that were likely bots, resulting in a final sample size of only 161!

For each of my open-source packages, I create a free tool that serves as a testing environment for the package in a real app setting and provides examples of how to use the package. For example, with my spf-validator Python package, I created my validatespf.com tool.

Side projects still open more doors than traditional applications in data roles. The trick: build small, interesting things that signal skills and make your work discoverable. Especially relevant given the current job market.

A while ago, I built a tool that connects to business tools & sends me a daily email with the main metrics (screenshot uses random data). I recently added an in-depth weekly report. I'm thinking about turning it into a small SaaS. If this sounds useful to you, let me know.

This is probably one of the best books I've read this year. An approachable explanation of the history of philosophy but written as a fictional story of a mentor and a 15-year-old with some mysterious circumstances.

I mostly use PyCharm as my IDE, but I've heard a lot about Positron lately, so I thought I'd give it a try. I really like how integrated Streamlit and Quarto are. Being able to click the play button and automatically start the app and open the viewer is great.

I was curious to know how many bills a U.S. Congress member introduces or co-sponsors. It turns out that most don't introduce new bills often. Many have only introduced a handful since the start of this term.
