Matplotlib tip: if your saved figure files are too large, pass `rasterized=True` to the plot element that's causing the issue: that element will be saved as a more compact raster (i.e. pixel) representation: pic.twitter.com/Pezq0VTtHg

Not even 5 minutes in and I've learned a great tip from @drob's latest #tidytuesday #rstats screencast: Create a new column from an existing column and a regular expression with tidyr::extract(mydf, myexistingcol, "newcolname", "(myregex)") https://t.co/Fb3lGCYqMU

Also, find a mentor/advocate to speak with about salary negotiation. 💰@AmeliaMN Hiring diverse teams is impactful/important but takes work.

(Even just a slightly more helpful error message would save so many people so much time / grief.)
One of the best pieces of advice I ever got from a mentor was: “if you’ve never missed a flight, you’re spending too much time in airports.”

Figure out what your own parameters are, and then allow yourself to risk missing a goal by cutting it too close sometimes.
If your model creates additional losses during its forward pass (i.e. if you called `self.add_loss` in a custom layer), collect them in one line like this. pic.twitter.com/tuvBdibMAP

The scikit-learn ColumnTransformer is a huge game changer. It alleviates so many previous headaches, bad practices, & erroneous results. Each set of columns can have its own pipeline. The end result can be a single estimator that does all the transformations & makes a prediction pic.twitter.com/wPjaRWUd2S

Currently working on the coming NAACL "Transfer Learning in NLP" tutorial with @seb_ruder @mattthemathman and @swabhz. Pretty excited!

And I've discovered you can write a Transformer model like GPT-2 in less than 40 lines of code now!
