You Can Do Really Cool Things With Functions In Python 
Here are a few not-so-common things you can do with functions in Python, including closures and partial function application. Functions are incredibly powerful and you can use them to write code that's really clean and often a lot shorter than when relying on classes and object-oriented programming. 

Running Python in WebAssembly
Python can now be compiled to Wasm. In this post, we show how to run cloud-side Python in a WebAssembly runtime.

How we parallelized 600+ pandas functions with Modin
Scaling up pandas is hard. With Modin, we took a first-principles approach to parallelizing the pandas API. Rather than focus on implementing what we knew was easy, we developed a theoretical basis for dataframes—the abstraction underlying pandas—and derived a dataframe algebra that can express the 600+ pandas operators in under 20 algebraic operators.

Working with Image Data in Python 
In this video I show how to work with image data in python! Using the popular python packages matplotlib and opencv you will learn how to open image data, how the data is formatted, some ways to manipulate the data and save it off in a different format. 

Text Similarity w/ Levenshtein Distance in Python
Building a Plagiarism Detection Pipeline in Python.

Build internal apps remarkably fast with Retool

In this video we go through the major concepts in natural language processing using Python libraries! We use examples to help drill down the concepts. There is content in this video for all skill levels (beginners to experts).

Data Visualization in Python with matplotlib, Seaborn and Bokeh
In this tutorial, we’ll talk about a few options for data visualization in Python. We’ll use the MNIST dataset and the Tensorflow library for number crunching and data manipulation. To illustrate various methods for creating different types of graphs, we’ll use the Python’s graphing libraries namely matplotlib, Seaborn and Bokeh.
