Hi so is anybody getting the same issue I am; my plots get thrown into like 1900 years into the future... for basically no reason.. in the jupyter notebook
any help would be appreciated

Hi Hemanto,
This is an issue with the matplotlib library. Note that `[::24]` is selecting every 24th row in the history DataFrame, not the first 24 rows.
Best,
Derek Melchin
