On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

It has been some time since I did a Q&A on the channel! These are my responses to some user submitted questions on Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram! Topics: - Lot of LLM questions. How will these impact coding ability, future work, and data - Job questions. How to land a job, and what the future of the data science job market looks like - Personal questions. What would I do if I wasn't in data, how do I stay motivated, how do I approach burnout Podcast Sponsors, Affiliates, and Partners: - Pathrise - http://pathrise.com/KenJee | Career mentorship for job applicants (Free till you land a job) - Taro - http://jointaro.com/r/kenj308 (20% discount) | Career mentorship if you already have a job - 365 Data Science (57% discount) - https://365datascience.pxf.io/P0jbBY | Learn data science today - Interview Query (10% discount) - https://www.interviewquery.com/?ref=kenjee | Interview prep questions…

What You Can Learn from a "Normal Guy" Pursuing Data Science (Nash Mundondo) - KNN Ep. 154 1:15:46

לפני 2 years1:15:46

1:15:46

Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Nash Mundondo. @datanash8200 thought he could never learn to code. At 16 he dropped out of his high-school computer science class, and at 23 he dropped out of his Sports Science masters because it had 1 coding module and he thought he couldn't handle it. Now there's nothing he loves more than coding and data science. He is currently documenting his journey on YouTube to show others who think they can't learn code or data science, that if he can do it, they can too. Today we talk about how Nash struggled with self learning, how he landed his internship, and how ChatGPT played into his school life.
