- Get data by crawling websites or querying an API with Python (cURL, wget..).
- Query a linked open data (RDF) endpoint with SPARQL.
- Use an OS (Linux/Ubuntu or Windows) without a GUI (but also with a GUI), and I can connect to a remote server.
- Use Jupyter Notebooks, (often for Python, almost always for R).
