It's the internal data structure that we build most of xarray's higher level labeled arrays on: http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/internals.html#variable-objects

Feel free to open an incomplete PR with your current progress and I am happy to advise","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,313010564

Note: currently `astype` is directly assigning a method onto Dataset/DataArray (ugh!).

It should really be switched to use a more transparent definition, e.g., a method defined in a base class, with the implementation defined by using `apply_ufunc`:

This would make it quite easy to add `keep_attrs=True`.","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,313010564
