What Are the Qualifications for a Data Scientist?

In today's data-driven world, the role of a data scientist has become one of the most coveted career paths. With businesses relying on data for decision-making, understanding customer behavior, and improving products, the demand for skilled professionals who can analyze, interpret, and extract value from data is at an all-time high. If you're wondering what qualifications are needed to become a successful data scientist, how DataCouncil can help you get there, and why a data science course in Pune is a great option, this blog has the answers.

The Key Qualifications for a Data Scientist

To succeed as a data scientist, a mix of technical skills, education, and hands-on experience is essential. Here are the core qualifications required:

1. Educational Background

A strong foundation in mathematics, statistics, or computer science is typically expected. Most data scientists hold at least a bachelor’s degree in one of these fields, with many pursuing higher education such as a master's or a Ph.D. A data science course in Pune with DataCouncil can bridge this gap, offering the academic and practical knowledge required for a strong start in the industry.

2. Proficiency in Programming Languages

Programming is at the heart of data science. You need to be comfortable with languages like Python, R, and SQL, which are widely used for data analysis, machine learning, and database management. A comprehensive data science course in Pune will teach these programming skills from scratch, ensuring you become proficient in coding for data science tasks.

3. Understanding of Machine Learning

Data scientists must have a solid grasp of machine learning techniques and algorithms such as regression, clustering, and decision trees. By enrolling in a DataCouncil course, you'll learn how to implement machine learning models to analyze data and make predictions, an essential qualification for landing a data science job.

4. Data Wrangling Skills

Raw data is often messy and unstructured, and a good data scientist needs to be adept at cleaning and processing data before it can be analyzed. DataCouncil's data science course in Pune includes practical training in tools like Pandas and Numpy for effective data wrangling, helping you develop a strong skill set in this critical area.

5. Statistical Knowledge

Statistical analysis forms the backbone of data science. Knowledge of probability, hypothesis testing, and statistical modeling allows data scientists to draw meaningful insights from data. A structured data science course in Pune offers the theoretical and practical aspects of statistics required to excel.

6. Communication and Data Visualization Skills

which one of the boys fits this scenario?

play fighting but things get kinda heated so now they’re fucking you from behind while having you in a headlock 😭🥹

a/n: hm... my mind immediately went to gaz ;) anon u have a big brain, this awakened something... though I only see this happening if you two were in some kind of relationship other than platonic.

warning(s): explicit content (18+), established relationship, p^rn w/ little plot, p in v sex, primal play??, size kink if you squint, breath play, degradation + praise, unsafe sex, fem!reader, no use of y/n

word count: 900 ♡ masterlist // requests // ask box

bf!gaz who always took his time with you, but wasn't afraid to give newer, more rash things a try. he thought about it before, though it seemed he was waiting for you to pitch the idea first. or more so... an opportunity.

bf!gaz who for once, wasn't thinking of those desires tonight. the two of you were "sparring" on the living room floor. well, more like; kyle pinning you with ease, taunting you, and then giving you seconds to flee.

bf!gaz who gave you a few seconds to crawl away and attempt to restrict his arms in any way. you kicked your legs into his toned abdomen, earning merely a grunt that only plunged him closer. ❝no, you don't!❞ gaz grunted, giving your legs a whack while twisting your torso; forcing you onto your stomach.

bf!gaz who snaked an arm around you, your neck pinned by the strength of his arm; a successful headlock. he had just now figured out he had his golden opportunity. what could you do, besides voice an actual refusal? which of course, hadn't happened yet. kyle grimaced to himself, other hand slithering down your stomach, soon finding the inside of your panties.

bf!gaz who both degraded and praised you for being aroused, ❝so fuckin' wet for me, good girl.❞ all he had done was wrestle with you and you had soaked your panties. perhaps it was all the grunting, the taunting, or how your legs found their way around his waist after each relentless pin he had you in. in other words, twenty minutes of pent-up sexual tension, disguised by a playful sparring session.

bf!gaz who wasted no time practically yanking your bottoms off you, all while your back has been against his chest, a helpless squirm to get out of the hold — yet no refusing the idea of him fucking you like this. his clothed erection, pressing against your rear, it only remained clothed for seconds, before kyle sprung it from his boxers.

bf!gaz who gave you no time to adjust to him, because he knew you would be good for him. his cock, dripping with pre-cum — guided with force into you slick core, before he began to thrust like it was the last time he'd ever be inside you. ❝such a slag, i bet you're enjoyin' this, aren't you?❞

bf!gaz who couldn't accept moans or whines as an answer. at least not tonight. the headlock you were in tightened, until you could barely suck in oxygen, ❝asked you a question.❞ he hissed into your ear, thrusting even rougher, as if to enhance his taunts.

bf!gaz who loosened his grip once he heard your attempt at a formal answer, smirking at every stammer in your sentence. though, despite you doing so well, this headlock was too enhancing to remove you from. kyle's full length, bottomed out inside you with each rut into your cunt, rasps growing in frequency and volume.

bf!gaz who was using his strength to his advantage, using you as if you were his own personal toy tonight — to be manipulated into whatever position he desired until he finished. ❝don't whine, you asked for this. christ... can't believe this is all mine.❞ his forearm dug into your neck again, like a python had slithered around your throat. he was close, seconds from spilling his seed inside you.

bf!gaz whose groans were insignificant compared to the sounds of skin slapping echoing through the living room, combined with your incoherent babbling and gasps for air.

bf!gaz who knew he would cum in seconds, using his pressing weight to pin you against the floor, head raised from the hold. ❝gonna cum inside this cunt, make it mine, hm?❞ you were seeing ebony spots, but so deep in pleasure that it didn't matter. if anything, the constriction was only tightening the sensation of his pounding thrusts.

bf!gaz who came so hard he had to slow down, muscles tensing to the max — probably the last squeeze you could handle without passing out. his thrusts halted as he spurted his seed deep inside you, draining every last drop, a drawn-out curse right into your ear as his climax concluded.

bf!gaz who pulled out of you to watch the semen drip out of your cunt, down your legs, and some on the hardwood. you were out of the headlock, catching the breath you had lost while on your hands and knees. the act dropped when he asked if you were alright, earning a nod of approval from your fucked-out self — all you could muster. unlike earlier, a silent answer was more than acceptable.

... bf!gaz who wasn't done yet. he stroked himself for a few moments, then guided his cock into you again, re-inserting all the evidence of his last climax right back into you. it was near overstimulation, being rutted into all over again.

bf!gaz who went gradually this time; moderately paced thrusts into your cunt during the second round, holding your waist tenderly. this time no restriction on your airflow or your replies to his traunts and praises.

bf!gaz who kissed your clothed shoulder blades, sinking into the fabric of your shirt to hold his pace accountable. kyle felt the pool of wetness forming around his length — some slick from before, some from now, and some lubricant being his own seed. each agonizing thrust met with a wettened squelch from your soaked and core.

bf!gaz who knew you must be filled to the brim by now, literally and figuratively, but needed to cum again. this time, with less brute force. ❝so fuckin' good, sweetheart,❞ his methodical rutting continued, enough to make your eyes half-lidded. kyle's rhetocial question, answered by himself, and only himself; ❝should i make you cum this time? i think you've earned it.❞

Arkham!Riddler x Fem!Reader, word count: 550 oh some absolute sweetheart requested this on ao3 and i couldn't help myself because i have been giddy over him again 💚 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: fingering, cockwarming, teasing, orgasm denial, reader has a pussy but no gendered language is used

Eddie’s hand reached up to you, curling around your throat and tensing, python like in the confident, predatory grasp he held you in. 

“There were set stipulations to this agreement, and I am being very considerate in giving you a warning, first.”

You struggled briefly, trying to choke your words out, instead opting for a silent nod in understanding. There had been a formal discussion, with Eddie laying out his rules in advance of submitting to your will, and you had graciously accepted them. They had been reasonable, after all, you mused, as you played it over in your mind.

“If you want to be filled, I can satiate that desire. But you won’t move. You won’t speak. And you won’t be a hindrance to my concentration. Deal?”

Ever cock-hungry, only where Eddie was concerned, you had nodded so hard and enthusiastically your head had begun to hurt, only stopping when he had lifted your chin in his gloved hand and looked into your eyes with a confidence that always stirred both terror and arousal deep within your core.

“Very good.”

And now, here you were, breaking that rule already. So desperate, your body aching with an intensity and desire so strong you’d forgotten where you were, and who you were disobeying, and had begun to roll your hips a little as you sat on his lap. Of course, this disobedience would not go unnoticed, certainly not by Eddie. Despite the fact his cock throbbed inside of you, twitching with every slight stroke of it against your insides, he wouldn’t, or couldn’t, let you bend the rules. Every misdemeanour deserved punishment, even to his own pleasure’s detriment. 

“Now, if you’re going to misbehave, I will have to make you atone for it.”

He bucked his hips up once, thrusting himself up to the hilt, holding you down, one hand on your throat, one hand on your thigh. 

“Do. Not. Move.”

The hand on your thigh moved to your front to play with you, teasing you, taunting you cruelly as he growled in your ear. Rough fingers skirting over sensitive, tingling skin while you tensed your body in a desperate attempt to remain as still as possible.

“My, my. What a mess you’re making.”

He removed his hand from you and held it in front of your face, prying his finger and thumb apart and bringing them together again, displaying strands of your arousal as they stretched between his digits. You didn’t need the example, you were more than aware of how wet you were, dripping onto his cock as it pulsed, still, steady, hard, within you. 

His fingers moved to your mouth, pushing down on your bottom lip and placing his fingers on your tongue, letting you taste yourself. You choked back a soft gasp, imagining that any sound would count as “against the rules”, but he quickly pulled the digits out and cooed softly into your ear. 

“Oh, now… I’m not completely without empathy. If it helps, you may make some noise. I will admit to finding your pathetic mewling somewhat of a stroke to my ego.”

You whined, almost on command, a strangled sound that vibrated through you. It didn’t make it any easier however, but you knew neither of you could last much longer. Or at least, you hoped.

[barracuda-shark-games]

I really feel like your blog is missing barracuda shark discourse, so I’ve come to deliver.

People are probably gonna think me crazy but:

When I was around eight, I was around five foot (give or take a few inches) and 100lbs, but I was visiting my mom’s home country in LatAm, getting dragged through the street market by my abuela as one does, and I saw them carting a great barracuda that was larger than me in some sort of cart.

Like he was spilling over it. Mouth open.

That’s when I decided I was more scared of barracudas than sharks (and I’ve seen sharks irl and even gators too!)

And before anyone comes after me: listen, I understand that the likelihood of getting killed by a barracuda over a shark is basically impossible (I have lived by the ocean for a very decent chunk of my life)

But you look one of those guys in the face and tell me that they’re not scary. Imagine it as big as you.

Listen. I know this is crazy. I was born in Florida. I’m not afraid of gators, water moccasins, cotton mouths, pythons, or sharks.

But jelly fish (except moon jelly fish, I’m not a monster) and barracudas can literally just perish. Please. For my sanity.

(Still a cool name tho)

That is a core memory if ever I saw one. I get it though! Barracudas are creepy looking... there's something so soulless in their face... and those mouths... In a way, I think I'd expect more intelligence from a shark than a barracuda, so I feel like it wouldn't attack me without cause whereas barracudas seem to not operate on logic, they just operate on pure instinct and viciousness. Not sure how founded this assumption is in reality, of course, lol.

I've always been scared of water monsters just in video games, with the barracuda shark from Quake II being my introduction (and the namesake of this blog!). There's just something about the vulnerability of being in water with something threatening that is better adapted to moving in it than you are. I used to avoid going in water in video games if I could help it, now it's just an exhilarating thrill for me. Interestingly enough, this fear never translated into real life; I don't think about it when I swim in lakes or oceans. (Also somehow I've managed to avoid getting stung by a jellyfish despite living near beaches for much of my life!)

Side note: The only creature that truly terrifies me is cockroaches, I've had too many awful and gross experiences with them. T^T

[txttletale]

what's up with not for broadcast? i've had it in my wishlist for a while just from the basic premise of the game seeming interesting.

first of all, its political satire is somehow both heavy handed and bafflingly confused. like the plot of the game is that Evil Socialists take over by Doing Populism (scary!) and then do Evil Socialism by taking away rich people's money and doing 1984 to everybody. and idk this could just be standard anticommunism and it'd be annoying but not confusing. but the game is also like--like, it makes a point of how the Evil Socialist Government gets sanctioned by the rest of the world causing economic crisis, and how the main anti-government rebel is a self-centred paranoid far-right podcaster clearly based off alex jones, and how the rich people were all nasty iditos who didn't deserve their money. which like. i don't know. what's the game trying to say, then?

the only possible takeaway i can take from how these two factions are presented is like 'wealth inequality and capitalism is bad but it would also be bad to do anything about it'. the only character who is presented as even remotly sympathetic is the news reader who is decidedly apolitical and only cares about Getting To Read The News With Journalistic Objectivity. so many weird and confusing and self-defeating political assumptions baked into this game.

secondly, the humour misses the mark because it just can't fucking stop. like the joke will reach its punchline but because there needs to be a set amount of footage for the core gameplay loop to work jokes just get pushed wayyy past the point of the punchline. and not in an artful way like tim robinson or aunty donna just in a very tedious way where even quite funny jokes become absolutely fucking obnoxious the more they go on for. this is subjective of course but at some point watching C-tier monty python skits stretched out to three times their natural length just became so grating.

finally, the gameplay is so close to being good but losers confidence in its main gameplay mechanic at the last moment. like most of it is deciding when to cut between several different camera feeds, like, yknow, potentially making people look bad or good, undermining or reinforcing propaganda, etc. and this is a really good core mechanic that's really good and satisfying to play with! but unfortunately they keep interrupting it with stupid gimmicks like wiggling a line about to make it match anotehr line (the TV signal is out of tune or whatever) which instead of feeling like you're making meaningful choices about the titular broadcast just feel like pointless busywork. all these little distractions really really ruined the gameplay aspect of this for me which otherwise was extremely good and intersesting.

16/? Luo Binghe is SO NORMAL about Shen Yuan

7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 (here), 17

Read up through even numbered parts on Ao3

Zero out of ten, Luo Binghe would not recommend being punted into the Endless Abyss. Worse, he was due for another dose of the antidote. So he had to survive the Endless Abyss, collect the sword Xin Mo and kill Linguang-jun while dying of poison. Yay.

While reading IRS, he'd never questioned how Shen Yuan knew that Luo Baixiao's sword was called Xin Mo. Sword names were a thing; it was just part of the genre. Of course the main character knew the name of an important sword. But actually living in the world, that knowledge had more significance.

Shen Yuan had a deep wealth of knowledge of demons, their customs and their artifacts, so why did he think Luo Binghe needed Xin Mo specifically to kill Linguang-jun?

"This Venerable One can provide enlightenment," Meng Mo interrupted.

"As if I'd trust anything you had to say. I'm useless to your master now." Luo Binghe snapped back. It wasn't as if he could do anything else, stuck as he was at the bottom of the crater made by his own impact with the ground with a broken spine.

"That obsession of yours was correct; you have the blood of the Heavenly Demons. Never let it be said that this Venerable One is foolish enough to work against fated royalty."

Luo Binghe considered his words. In light of everything else, the Heavenly bit of his demonic reveal hadn't seemed particularly important. The only known Heavenly Demon in IRS was Zhuzhi-lang, a recent addition at the time of his death. Zhuzhi-lang was the general of the former demonic emperor: Tianlang-jun, who had been suppressed by an alliance of the righteous sects in general and the Xuan Su Sword in particular.

Whatever particular strength or power Heavenly Demons had was glossed over in favor of the fact that, as half snake-demon, Zhuzhi-land had two dicks. That said, for having reached terminal velocity before making impact, Luo Binghe was startlingly alive and cognizant.

"Enlighten me, then."

"The Mobei clan possess the ability to open portals between spatial locations, not unlike the Black Moon Rhinoceros-Python. Xin Mo can do the same, if the legends are true," Meng Mo said. "But given that you survived the merging of your spiritual and demonic cores, it's likely unnecessary as more than a tool to escape this place."

Feelings was slowly returning to Luo Binghe's body. While it was all pain, it was still feeling. If nothing else, the regenerative traits of a Heavenly Demon were certainly strong.

"So you've jumped ship onto Team Luo. Why should I trust you won't betray me in turn?"

Meng Mo didn't answer for long enough that Luo Binghe was able to wiggle his fingers. They didn't feel broken, but his torso had taken the lion's share of the damage when he slammed back-first into the rock. Luo Binghe was tentatively flexing his ankles when he finally got a response.

"Ever since this Venerable One ascended from his flesh-"

"You're anchored in me anyway," Luo Binghe accused. "And you're just now taking my side?"

"Watch your tone, brat. This Venerable One is the only reason you surivived failing your task and missing a dosage of the antidote."

"Get ready to do it again, Old Man," Luo Binghe thought, baring his teeth.

"Unnecessary. Heavenly Demons are immune to almost all poisons. Clearly Linguang-jun failed to assess your bloodline before poisoning you. Or he assumed you would die when the seal broke, though the latter is short-sighted considering the value of your body as a panacea."

"How reassuring," Luo Binghe replied. It was getting hard to think; his ribs were piecing themselves together, the shards jerking sharply out of his organs and back into place.

"Your first lesson as a Heavenly Demon approaches, brat," Meng Mo replied.

Before he had time to ask for elaboration, Luo Binghe heard steps on the broken rock. He couldn't turn his head. He couldn't move more than making a fist, but the steps came closer and with it the feel of assessing, predatory eyes. The next thing he knew, the pain in his ribs was eclipsed by a vicious bite taken from the meat of his thigh.

Luo Binghe couldn't manage more than a pained gasp, his body still too broken to react.

"Good, it has your blood in its body. Feel it. Reach for the you outside your flesh. Tear it apart from the inside with your blood parasites."

Meng Mo made it sound so simple, but at the same time the words sounded like vague, New Age claptrap. However, he didn't have a choice; the creature's muzzle was back, licking at his leg and pushing the torn fabric of his trousers out of the way of his flesh.

Luo Binghe made an attempt to feel outside of himself despite the pain, but even when he could grasp the blood parasites, he didn't know how to control them. After several false starts, he succeeded by visualizing old children's videos depicting how vaccines worked. He spread his awareness through the creature like an innoculation and then reversed his intent, tearing it apart on the celluar level.

The beast collapsed on top of his open wound, but a success was a success.

Why Learning Python is the Perfect First Step in Coding

Learning Python is an ideal way to dive into programming. Its simplicity and versatility make it the perfect language for beginners, whether you're looking to develop basic skills or eventually dive into fields like data analysis, web development, or machine learning.

Start by focusing on the fundamentals: learn about variables, data types, conditionals, and loops. These core concepts are the building blocks of programming, and Python’s clear syntax makes them easier to grasp. Interactive platforms like Codecademy, Khan Academy, and freeCodeCamp offer structured, step-by-step lessons that are perfect for beginners, so start there.

Once you’ve got a handle on the basics, apply what you’ve learned by building small projects. For example, try coding a simple calculator, a basic guessing game, or even a text-based story generator. These small projects will help you understand how programming concepts work together, giving you confidence and helping you identify areas where you might need a bit more practice.

When you're ready to move beyond the basics, Python offers many powerful libraries that open up new possibilities. Dive into pandas for data analysis, matplotlib for data visualization, or even Django if you want to explore web development. Each library offers a set of tools that helps you do more complex tasks, and learning them will expand your coding skillset significantly.

Keep practicing, and don't hesitate to look at code written by others to see how they approach problems. Coding is a journey, and with every line you write, you’re gaining valuable skills that will pay off in future projects.

Share Your Anecdotes: Multicore Pessimisation

I took a look at the specs of new 7000 series Threadripper CPUs, and I really don't have any excuse to buy one, even if I had the money to spare. I thought long and hard about different workloads, but nothing came to mind.

Back in university, we had courses about map/reduce clusters, and I experimented with parallel interpreters for Prolog, and distributed computing systems. What I learned is that the potential performance gains from better data structures and algorithms trump the performance gains from fancy hardware, and that there is more to be gained from using the GPU or from re-writing the performance-critical sections in C and making sure your data structures take up less memory than from multi-threaded code. Of course, all this is especially important when you are working in pure Python, because of the GIL.

The performance penalty of parallelisation hits even harder when you try to distribute your computation between different computers over the network, and the overhead of serialisation, communication, and scheduling work can easily exceed the gains of parallel computation, especially for small to medium workloads. If you benchmark your Hadoop cluster on a toy problem, you may well find that it's faster to solve your toy problem on one desktop PC than a whole cluster, because it's a toy problem, and the gains only kick in when your data set is too big to fit on a single computer.

The new Threadripper got me thinking: Has this happened to somebody with just a multicore CPU? Is there software that performs better with 2 cores than with just one, and better with 4 cores than with 2, but substantially worse with 64? It could happen! Deadlocks, livelocks, weird inter-process communication issues where you have one process per core and every one of the 64 processes communicates with the other 63 via pipes? There could be software that has a badly optimised main thread, or a badly optimised work unit scheduler, and the limiting factor is single-thread performance of that scheduler that needs to distribute and integrate work units for 64 threads, to the point where the worker threads are mostly idling and only one core is at 100%.

I am not trying to blame any programmer if this happens. Most likely such software was developed back when quad-core CPUs were a new thing, or even back when there were multi-CPU-socket mainboards, and the developer never imagined that one day there would be Threadrippers on the consumer market. Programs from back then, built for Windows XP, could still run on Windows 10 or 11.

In spite of all this, I suspect that this kind of problem is quite rare in practice. It requires software that spawns one thread or one process per core, but which is deoptimised for more cores, maybe written under the assumption that users have for two to six CPU cores, a user who can afford a Threadripper, and needs a Threadripper, and a workload where the problem is noticeable. You wouldn't get a Threadripper in the first place if it made your workflows slower, so that hypothetical user probably has one main workload that really benefits from the many cores, and another that doesn't.

So, has this happened to you? Dou you have a Threadripper at work? Do you work in bioinformatics or visual effects? Do you encode a lot of video? Do you know a guy who does? Do you own a Threadripper or an Ampere just for the hell of it? Or have you tried to build a Hadoop/Beowulf/OpenMP cluster, only to have your code run slower?

I would love to hear from you.
