Brian #1: <a href="https://labs.quansight.org/blog/pandas_expressions?featured_on=pythonbytes">pandas is getting pd.col expressions</a>

<ul>
<li>Marco Gorelli</li>
<li>Next release of Pandas will have <code>pd.col()</code>, inspired by some of the other frameworks
<ul>
<li>I’m guessing Pandas 2.3.3? or 2.4.0? or 3.0.0? (depending on which version they bump?)</li>
</ul></li>
<li>“The output of <code>pd.col</code> is called an expression. You can think of it as a delayed column - it only produces a result once it's evaluated inside a dataframe context.”</li>
<li>It replaces many contexts where lambda expressions were used</li>
</ul>
