MODELLING
- Quantify predictive errors before and after the anime, to show effect of Yuri on ice skating
- Clean up code so I can easily run by country, or globally
- Get results for globally, and every country, and save to pickle files
- Add yuri_interest_level as a feature, and see how that impacts the model
