Hi Reader,
If I were to dedicate the next Tuesday Tip to you and the Data Science challenge you’re currently facing, what would that Tip be about?
Reply and let me know! 💌
Comprehensive Python Cheatsheet
This is a truly gigantic cheatsheet (thousands of lines long!) that covers dozens of Python topics from beginner to advanced. Because the information density is so high, it’s more suitable as a reference than as a primary learning tool.
If you’re just getting started with Python, I would instead recommend Python Essentials for Data Scientists, my newly updated course! 🐍
One of the most important assets as a Data Scientist is your portfolio of projects hosted on GitHub. This demonstrates your Data Science experience to potential employers, including your coding skills, your analytical skills, and your ability to communicate.
But in a competitive job market, it’s also important to make a great first impression, starting from the moment someone visits your GitHub profile.
GitHub makes this easy by allowing you to create and customize your profile README. Here are some examples:
Getting started is easy:
That README file will automatically be displayed on your profile! Here’s mine:
If you’re having a problem with the setup, check out GitHub’s detailed instructions.
Not sure what to include in your README? Check out Awesome GitHub Profile READMEs for inspiration!
Want to add some fancy badges or widgets? This huge list of tools should help!
New to the Markdown language? Here’s GitHub’s guide to formatting text and images and my favorite Markdown cheatsheet.
If you enjoyed this week’s tip, please forward it to a friend! Takes only a few seconds, and it really helps me grow the newsletter! 🚀
See you next Tuesday!

Hi Reader, This week, I've got a short tip about AI agents, followed by some Data School news... 👉 Tip #56: What are AI agents? Google is calling 2025 "the agentic era," DeepLearning.AI says "the agentic era is upon us," and NVIDIA's founder says "one of the most important things happening in the world of enterprise is agentic AI." Clearly AI agents are a big deal, but what exactly are they? Simply put, an AI agent is an application that uses a Large Language Model (LLM) to control its...
Hi Reader, Last week, I launched a brand new course: Build an AI chatbot with Python. 120+ people enrolled, and a few have already completed the course! 👏 Want to join us for $9? 👉 Tip #55: Should you still learn to code in 2025? You’ve probably heard that Large Language Models (LLMs) are excellent at writing code: They are competitive with the best human coders. They can create a full web application from a single prompt. LLM-powered tools like Cursor and Copilot can autocomplete or even...
