Ask HN: Web Development vs. Data Science for a Python Programmer (1 Year)?

[kim031]

I have some front-end web development experience. But I'm not very fond of it. Should I go for Python web development framework like flask or choose data analysis. I do have some interest in machine learning. What would be beneficial for my career in the long run? Thanks.

machine learning and web dev are miles apart. if you dont have a quant background stick to web dev

I have some background in quant. So I'll give data science a try. Thanks for the reply.
