As a data scientist with knowledge of Java, Python, and R, what are some interesting languages for me to learn? I keep hearing software people in my circles talk about Go and Haskell. Do you think learning one or both languages could be useful for my career?

Accounting - the language of business.

Any tech job is capped when you can't discuss the value of something for the business

Congrats! A big industry full of regulation and data, with plenty of opportunities to excel when you know tech and data

Haskell and Go (and Rust) are all cool, but won't help you in data. I second VP1 suggesting accounting, but if you want a programming language, go for either JS, C++, Julia, or Scala.

JS: the default for all things web pages
C++: what all your data processing libraries run on the backend
Julia: a cool data science language
Scala: a data engineering language

If you're involved in data transformation, check out Alteryx. Pretty easy to learn especially if you already have prior knowledge of SQL

EY you might want to look into what a programming language is cause alteryx is not it lol

SQL

Gamma OP?

I can’t help but feel stuck in my career. I’m a licensed attorney in another country, but been working as a law clerk in a firm for about a year now. I was hoping to take the NY bar in February but the foreign law graduate restrictions won’t allow. Now, I have to wait till July! I can’t help but feel this way, and as much as I love my company, I’m beginning to dislike the role. Maybe it’s an ‘ego’ thing? Anyone ever been in this position? How did you get over it?

My company has historically underpaid people but I still like the people and B. My lack of experience. I think a promotion would come with a raise, but the percentage difference would most likely only grow and I’m not sure that would be ok with the responsibilities I’d be stepping into. Any advice?

I am finishing up a project and I’m trying to document what I’ve done for my resume. What are some good metrics for someone who mainly created user stories, created dashboards, interacted with the client and developed statistical models? One of my dashboards got deployed to production but it’s to early to see the impact. My other dashboards are almost done but I’m moving on to something else.
