swe vs ds
I (29yr) have been managing a farm for 6 years and about to resign. Currently making 150k/year and am ok without income for quite some time. Just feel like I have a lot of skills that I'm not using and ready for a career change. I'm interested in finance, math (extremely good in it and won multiple national math olympics awards) and programming. I was thinking either software engineering or data science could be interesting but open to any other ideas. What would you recommend?

Laptop for Machine Learning
I am an MS Data Analytics student. During the assignment I received, my current laptop (Specs - i5 10th gen, 8GB RAM, 512 SSD, OS - Windows) faced some problems and took longer to train models. I am thinking of buying a new laptop for the upcoming semester which will include modules like Scalable Machine Learning and Modelling and Simulation of Natural Systems plus my dissertation. I am locked on two choices -
1. MacBook M1 Air with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD
2. MacBook M2 Pro with 16GB RAM and 256GB SSD
I have mainly chosen apple devices because my other devices (phone and iPad) are from Apple too and would benefit from the Apple ecosystem. Also, the Macs are lighter and have a longer battery life, providing great portability.
Still, if you think I should go with a windows laptop, please suggest that too.

What’s your preferred feature selection method?
I understand it’s very data dependent, but what’s your go-to to start analyzing?
I generally try to keep it simple and use Pearson’s correlation for finding linear relationships and mutual information for non-linear relationships. Both are variable specific and don’t apply to a combination of variables.
