Social media seems to be laughing its ass off about this tragedy, is it because the folks at burning man are perceived as frivolous hippies or something? Everyone I’ve ever met who was a regular burning man attendee has been a solid human being with strong morals, personally and financially responsible, a career. Upstanding...
It’s just a playground for the riche to do a music and drug festival pretend poor style. Or maybe it has something to do with a bunch of those hippies that nearly killed climate protestors blocking the road on their way in.
Every Burner I’ve ever met has been one of the most entitled, out of touch, morons I’ve ever had the displeasure of talking to. Let’s see where their “radical self reliance” gets them now.
Hey there, everybody. Recent joiner who’s been lurking. I have been searching the posts here and gotten some great info from them, but I’ve now got some questions of my own. Hopefully, they’re ones that others have and they might benefit from the thread, as well....
Thank you! I will look into Google Analytics and Looker Studio, and Quicksight.
I haven’t done anything with like any of what you mentioned. That’s how niched I am right now. It’s ridiculous. The common sense things in the basic Google cert is far and above the capabilities of my current team in an appalling way. Not surprisingly, my salary is garbage. My priority for the last months has been making myself hireable somewhere else.
Do data analytics positions normally do a skill interview? How common is on the job training for a junior/lower mid level position when you onboard? I have plenty of experience teaching myself what I’m supposed to be doing, but having some skill transfer is much less stressful.
That Data Model tool is going to be an absolute game changer. Bless you. I can think of at least three use cases in my current system that need this desperately.
I’m going to make myself a little pet project to work more in BigQuery and make my own queries, outside of what the cert has had me doing. The last part of the cert is a case study type project, so I will at least have something to accompany my resume once I start applying.
Also, no kidding about the imposter syndrome. I’m in this weird limbo feeling like I’m being gaslit at work about what I know and don’t know just because no one around me knows what I’m doing. We’re all animal science/biology majors, but everyone else has more lab experience. They claim to want people that understand the chemistry, but I don’t have any clue to it and I am now basically a team and product lead with the computer and analytical skills alone.
I don’t even know much VBA (wrote my macros in visual studio using the record macro tool to help me teach myself while I built), so DAX shouldn’t be too jarring!
All this definitely makes me feel better. I actually really enjoy this type of stuff. Working with the data has been really cool and I love learning the new skills. I want a job where I can keep doing that instead of just being a data monkey locked at a 3% increase every year with no bonus.
I think that’s where I’m at. I just need to update the resume and start putting it out there while I work. I have done some work with Tableau, and I already see how much potential it has. I definitely have the least amount of experience with viz as my customers are all researchers or labs that want raw data.
the SQL syntax is certainly very straightforward. It’s funny, I find excel really fun to work with. Maybe that’s the Stockholm Syndrome of it being the only tool I’m really capable of applying at work 😅
