Big enough to deliver.

Small enough to care.

The enlightened companies coming out of this pandemic will be the ones that figured out the right way to work remotely. They’ll have stopped trying to make remote look like local. They’ll have discovered that remote work means more autonomy, more trust, more uninterrupted stretches of time"

The strength of the community, the beauty of open source!

As part of pydataamsterdam 2020 (tickets here https://amsterdam.pydata.org), I was asked to prepare a session on getting started with testing in Python.

The goal was to empower participants to participate to open source development, on libraries such as https://pandas.io

This is always a daunting and humbling task, even more so now that I basically run the GoDataDriven Academy full-time, with no time to code — or to write tests.

So while readying my talk, I thought: wouldn’t it be a great challenge if could not only teach participants something new but also contribute a real test to pandas?

Lo and behold: the pandas developers are ready to merge my contribution!

There’s probably no better expert in the Netherlands than Ruben van de Geer when it comes to dynamic pricing.

Don’t miss your chance to learn from the maestro through an online competition!
