Rambling on data | Readings

I’ve tried to focus again on the data side. This means a bit more Python and looking, again, for how to integrate a data platform cheaply. And seamlessly. This will be for my talk and I think this will be super relevant. More than I thought and I need to make it work. Everything else might be secondary. With that said I’ve tried to do a bit more reading and I’m sure I’ll have it picked up for next reading update. Afterwards… A lot of tests and iterations on Python, AWS, dbt, and DuckDB.
