Which ICE performance car? I went from an SRT8 back in 2012 to a Tesla Model 3 performance + mods and now most recently went back to ICE via an AMG GT63. I can confidently say that the GT63 is leagues more fun than the Tesla ever was. Sure the Tesla was quick off the line, but outside of that it felt sterile and the ride was quite uninspired.

Your colleagues should consider skipping conda and stick to using venv. It will make life much easier. Given pandas/numpy is huge in data science, moving away is not much of an option unless you are working on a personal project or already have a dedicated team comfortable with using a different stack. There is also the Docker option which is great but much more involved.

My understanding is polars will stream if data does not fit in RAM.
Between Polars and Spark Dataframe APIs (not Koalas) as well as the occasional dplyr, I will gladly abandon Pandas.

To be fair, Tesla's version of official is a tweet from the Chief Twit.

Hey now, Colorado has started accepting Crypto payments recently.

This includes individual income tax, business income tax, sales and use tax, withholding tax, severance tax and excise fuel tax."
