TLDR: Pandas are dope fiends!?
TIL that Pandas aren't born loving bamboo, but that it's an addiction with a dopamine component.
Those cute furry pandas are actually carnivores.
But they sit on their butts all day eating plants and getting high instead of chasing animals.
"some of the bamboo-derived miRNAs were found to regulate dopamine pathways, driving food motivation and the reward system linked to it. So if eating bamboo is a pleasurable, satisfying experience for a panda, it's more likely to be solely driven to seek out this trigger." https://newatlas.com/biology/pandas-bamboo-micro-rna/

How do I correctly apply Pandas' 'infer_objects' function?
I try the following example in #Pandas 2.2.3:
```
outage_mask = pd.Series(([True]*5 + [False]*5)*5, index=pd.date_range("2025-01-01", freq="1h", periods=50))
[ts for ts in outage_mask.loc[outage_mask.diff().fillna(False)].index]
```
This gives me a warning about downcasting object dtype arrays on 'fillna'. I cannot figure out how to apply the suggested 'infer_objects' correctly

Mastodon.social alt text analysis report!
Me and my friend Cristal just published a report on image description usage on mastodon.social, as a group project for the Introduction to Data Science course of the Artificial Intelligence and Sustainable Societies Erasmus Mundus Joint Master program.
Thoughts and feedback are welcome
A huge thanks to @stefan for publishing the dataset on which we based our analysis!
NOTE: We are absolutely aware that the report has very little actual relevance, as the dataset contains a super limited amount of posts from one instance only. It was mainly an experimentation to test our data analysis skills.
@shauvikkumar I find this poll a bit difficult to answer, as the mentioned libraries can all be important parts of data science pipelines at the same time. What if I want to perform algorithmic computations with #SciPy by using #pandas via #numpy arrays and visualize the results afterward with #matplotlib for example?
I spent the last two days coding bepp, my first #Python project.
Its use case that is so specific I think nobody else will ever use it except me.
The tool is meant to clean up and merge together transaction summaries from Banca Etica and PayPal, exporting them in a simple #CSV.
Even though it’s a tiny silly script, I am very proud of it and I feel that I could create anything I set my mind to, now!
Thanks to my Introduction to Data Science course, that finally made me start learning Python with the time and dedication it deserves (my project for the course is very interesting too, will post about it in a few days).
the hands-on tutorials for data visualization are now also available in German – many thanks to Nadine Geffers!
Die praktischen Tutorials zu Datenvisualisierung liegen nun auch auf Deutsch vor – herzlichen Dank an Nadine Geffers für die Übersetzung!
Hey #DataScience people!
I am about to start my first “Introduction to Data Science” course at #University, and our professor asked us to team up and think about a project that we want to do.
Nevertheless, since I don’t know anything about the topic yet, I would really appreciate any tips of entry-level data science projects that I could do with #OpenData #DataSets in #Python!
Probably, we will be using #pandas. Since you’re here, any additional learning resources or general suggestions are much welcome, too!
Thanks

Here's the current status as of 7:50 AM. It says the plane will arrive 6 minutes early.
Giant pandas, welcome to DC, where no good deed goes unpunished. Arrive early, but then you have to wait for a gate to open up, then wait even longer for your luggage because you went to a new gate!
