if you're stuck in Windows-world...probably will

what do the non-windows folk use?

No idea - python and FOSS-magic-apps or something?

R can be, still a great place for open source implementations of ML techniques. And strong visualizations of data with ggplot2. Learn all the packages of the ‘tidyverse’. All good if you want a powerful toolkit for data analysis. I have been on data science teams that use R exclusively. I’ve never used power BI.

Thank you so much for your insight ❤️

Our tech stack was Hadoop/SQL on Linux, and R.

I’m actually in the middle of hiring a data analyst, both good things I look for on a resume, among other things

Oh, lovely to hear

What other things do you have in mind?

no lol

do not take my opinion, as I do not look at graphs, and instead query ClickHouse directly

tf is that
