Join this live session with Magnus Mårtensson ft. Adele Carpenter for the next episode of The Cloud Show with Magnus Mårtensson on March 12, 2025 at 01:05 PM (EST).
The show is about cloud leadership and all the important questions relating to cloud projects. Certainly, many matters when a company is going to and wants to be successful in the cloud, are about technology. However, there are many additional matters, adjacent to technology, that we also need to tend to regarding business strategy, human resources, organizational change, planning for a technical cloud approach, and many more questions. These conversations are critical for a healthy cloud and for a swift and accurate cloud approach.
GUEST SPEAKER
It took me a while, and move to the other side of the world, to find tech. Now I am here, just try and make me leave!
I use my prior experience as a civil engineer and marketeer to guide me in building stuff users actually want, in a way that keeps my fellow developers sane.
I am also a conference speaker, having spoken at a number of big conferences throughout Europe, and one in Australia

you have all this this so you're driving this with data and that's what we're
4:01
this with data and that's what we're
4:01
this with data and that's what we're going to talk about now a little bit all
4:02
going to talk about now a little bit all
4:02
going to talk about now a little bit all right so you you you measure and and
4:04
right so you you you measure and and

5:19
haven't done any benchmarking yet on um
5:19
haven't done any benchmarking yet on um what certain lifters could expect to
5:20
what certain lifters could expect to
5:21
what certain lifters could expect to lift um but there's so much you can pull
5:22
lift um but there's so much you can pull

one cool thing is that participation of women in particular has increased 2023
5:35
women in particular has increased 2023
5:35
women in particular has increased 2023 it was 30% of all power lifters now it's
5:37
it was 30% of all power lifters now it's
5:37
it was 30% of all power lifters now it's closer to 33% so we are seeing that
5:40
closer to 33% so we are seeing that
5:40
closer to 33% so we are seeing that women are flocking to the sport and that
5:42
women are flocking to the sport and that
5:42
women are flocking to the sport and that really really makes me very very that

6:00
so now you have this uh this data this
6:00
so now you have this uh this data this open source data set and then so you've
6:02
open source data set and then so you've
6:02
open source data set and then so you've what done with it you've made a website
6:05
what done with it you've made a website
6:05
what done with it you've made a website I think yeah so I have powerlifting and
6:07
I think yeah so I have powerlifting and
6:07
I think yeah so I have powerlifting and data.com which is where it's basically
6:09
data.com which is where it's basically
6:09
data.com which is where it's basically just a Blog it's a a static jeer website
6:12
just a Blog it's a a static jeer website
6:12
just a Blog it's a a static jeer website and get some HTML charts in there those
6:15
and get some HTML charts in there those
6:15
and get some HTML charts in there those charts are generated uh from a cotland
6:18
charts are generated uh from a cotland
6:18
charts are generated uh from a cotland uh notebook I use the intellig cotland
6:21
uh notebook I use the intellig cotland
6:21
uh notebook I use the intellig cotland notebook plugin it makes it like really
6:23
notebook plugin it makes it like really
6:23
notebook plugin it makes it like really iterative to pull some insights out of
6:25
iterative to pull some insights out of
6:25
iterative to pull some insights out of the data I use the data frame and Candy
6:28
the data I use the data frame and Candy
6:28
the data I use the data frame and Candy libraries to um process the data uh do
6:31
libraries to um process the data uh do
6:31
libraries to um process the data uh do data wrangling and then to create the uh
6:34
data wrangling and then to create the uh
6:34
data wrangling and then to create the uh plots themselves which you can then
6:35
plots themselves which you can then
6:36
plots themselves which you can then export as inedible HTML which is cool
6:38
export as inedible HTML which is cool
6:38
export as inedible HTML which is cool because when you embed the htl in just
6:40
because when you embed the htl in just
6:40
because when you embed the htl in just the static site then the um if you hover
6:43
the static site then the um if you hover
6:43
the static site then the um if you hover over the charts you can actually see the
6:45
over the charts you can actually see the
