Data Science is different things to different people so the list of things you need to know is hard to pin down.
It's often understood to go beyond data analysis.

I'm interested in a EU-based domain registrar to move out of the US-based registrar I've been using.
Any recommendations? I'm primarily a business customer (incorporated).

Mein Vater war (guter) Kunde im Mitarbeiter-Shop des Unternehmens, bei dem er 2004 nach 35 Jahren Betriebszugehörigkeit in Rente ging. Zuletzt hat er dort 2018 oder 2019 eingekauft, im Januar 2023 ist er verstorben. Ich habe den Shop mehrfach darüber informiert.

To people who didn’t vote for Trump, his sweaty panic over the Epstein files is perplexing.
The president’s enthusiasm for sexual violence is no secret.
It’s been nine years since the release of the “Access Hollywood” video, in which he bragged about how he liked to “grab them by” the genitals.
In 2023 and 2024, two civil juries found that journalist E. Jean Carroll told the truth when she said Trump sexually assaulted her in the 1990s.
