ש״ס שוב ניסתה למכור את אותו סיפור: אבא עם בן חייל ובן חרדי, משפחה אחת, שולחן שבת אחד. סרטונים מרגשים, צייצנים שמפיצים והמון צפיות.
אבל הפעם אנשים לא קנו את הבלוף.
כי האחדות שבסרטונים היא החיים שלהם. הם אוהבים את התורה ואת המדינה, שולחים ילדים לצבא ומכבדים את מי שלומד תורה. הם יודעים איך נראה בית כזה, ומבינים שש״ס לא מייצגת אותו.
גם הסרטון הכי מרגש לא יכסה על הפער בין האחדות שמוכרים בקמפיין לפוליטיקה שעושים בפועל.
What is the cross section of voters for @hatziburha and olim from Milwaukee? I'm extremely disappointed in the few number of votes, but at least the Brewers won the World Series! Crazy...

There is a terrible tendency to automatically disbelieve anything Israel says and automatically believe anything Hamas says. Israel = “unverifiable and disputed.” Hamas: a source of truth.
Insane.
There are so many donations from abroad of gear for soldiers and evacuees that are being held up at #israel customs for no good reason. Many reserve soldiers don't even have a proper helmet! Please help us fix this @netanyahu @Israel_MOF @bezalelsm israelnationalnews.com/news/…
If you have missing data in one column of a DataFrame that you'd prefer to fill with data from the same row in another column, the syntax is quite simple!
df['col1'].fillna(df['col2'])

#DataScience/#AWS tip: if the system cannot find your handler (for #Python: path.to.file.handlerFunction), try updating the handler with the AWS CLI! Command is:
aws lambda update-function-configuration --function-name <lambda name> --handler <handler path>

I dream of a world where truth shapes people's politics, rather politics shaping what people think is true.
SO excited to see the NA value in pandas 1.0.0. Finally, a single entity across data types to denote missing data; well done.

You literally voted in the Armed Services Committee to arm the Ukrainians. I was there a few seats down from you. This “policy” was voted on by the House, Senate and signed by President Trump.
