Data science approach to organizing my playlist

A couple of years ago I created a Spotify’s playlist where I add all tracks I liked, just as the main repository of things I’d like to listen to, no matter the mood I was when I added that song. As time goes, this playlist became less enjoyable to listen due to the change in rhythm - From listen to a Metal song it jumps to Bossa Nova, which is very annoying. This post contains a few data science approaches I applied to organize this playlist and what worked and what didn’t.

A data science toolkit inside a docker image, build it once, run everywhere

If you never heard about Jupyter Notebook, I highly recommend you to check it out. It have been my primary platform to build reports and data driven case studies. On this post I’d like to show how I create a simple and isolated environment with a Bash script and Docker to run JupyterLab. Recently Jupyter Notebook received a major overhauling and become JupyterLab - currently in beta, but the new platform looks fresh and very powerful.
