Well done! Congrats on gaining so much traction on one story. I wish the analytics in Medium lent more to understanding what consequential reads occurred from the focused attention on the article. That would help all authors develop a better sense of building on useful content for the audience and reduce that excellent yet “lightning in a bottle” feeling from monetizing a post. Everyone who writes needs clues for what topics resonate.
Also, as someone who is writing on R, it’s understandable that you got a lot of Python interest. People want useful ideas. You picked one of the best. Cheers and congrats again!
