| Kai's verdict | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. | S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. |
