Does the economy need to collapse first before everyone realizes modern universities/colleges have evolved into a scam?? They promise to prepare millions of young people for employment, then deliver this - 1.2M grads competing for just 17k roles in the UK...this year alone... If you're planning on becoming another one of these grads, the only guarantee you'll find after graduating is a lower chance of employment.







๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฐ: ๐ง๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐ฑ ๐ฆ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น. Enough tutorials. Time to get my hands dirty. Today was about finding a project that combines everything Iโve learned - Python, SQL, APIs, and data pipelines. ๐งต ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ท๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ Building an ETL pipeline for a REST API. The goal: Pull data from the Premier League API, parse it with Python, load it into a SQL database, and build live Premier League standings. Real data. Real API. Real pipeline. This is data engineering in action. ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐น๐ฎ๐ป Using GET requests to fetch data from the API. Transform it in Python. Load it into my database. Eventually visualize live standings. Itโs the full ETL cycle - Extract, Transform, Load. ๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ฑ ๐ง๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ Researched guided projects on YouTube to find the right one. Wrote out the pseudocode - both high-level and low-level. Set up my GitHub repository. Installed Git and got everything ready. Tomorrow, we build. ๐ช๐ต๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ This is where learning becomes real. Not just following tutorials. Actually building something that works. This project combines APIs, Python, SQL, and databases. All the pieces Iโve been learning separately, now working together. This is what hiring managers want to see. Not certificates. Working projects. ๐ง๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐ Stop consuming. Start building. Plan before you code. Pseudocode saves time. Real projects beat tutorials every time. ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ. Tomorrow we feast. Iโm excited. Whatโs the first real project you ever built? #DataAnalysis #DataEngineering #Python #SQL #BuildingInPublic #Datafam
