Recently read somewhere in its docs that Pandas 3 will default to copy on write for many operations, wonder how they thought of that 😬 (not that I'm too fond of Pandas, unfortunately)

Has definitely always been a thing in Italy in summer... I was really impressed in Melbourne last July that it's a thing in winter!!

Any chance your grandfather was born in the uk? My very Australian partner has never heard the phrase before...

It's a very good book! I don't even want to know how. Many hours of work people have put into that book...

Great writeup and examples! I'm trying to move my teaching to plotnine (seaborn is really messy) and polars as well, unfortunately some colleagues always want the students to also know pandas 🙄
What's your pet flaw concerning pandas?

Sure, but why did anyone start calling it a distance in the first place? I don't get it. But maybe I don't know enough deeper stuff done using it.

Hmm, switching sounds tiring... I'm gen y as I presume are you, so for my writing I prefer they:) but I do see the point of some "she" as above.

Historic default and fault! Isn't it exactly the point (for those writers) that it does briefly distract? (I remember @stephensenn.bsky.social often writing something along the lines of "image a physician doing... Then she...")
