Want to have a built-in circle of data buddies at the next conference you attend?! Go to community events online!! @jonthegeek.com & I were talking about how our circles online, like the DSLC book clubs & the DS Hangout, let us get to know lots of folks online before seeing them in person <3 #databs

Jon Harmon (he/him/his) @jonthegeek.com · 23d

A side benefit of DSLC.club book clubs is you get to know a handful of data nerds pretty well and have your group at conferences 😁
