The best stats you've ever seen by hans roslingDarpan Deoghare
Hans Rosling is a medical doctor and statistician who co-founded the Gapminder Foundation. He taught a class on global development where students had preconceived notions about statistics that failed to predict realities. Rosling argued there is a pressing need to make publicly available data more accessible by moving it out of databases and into searchable, visual formats. This allows people to more easily understand and use data to identify patterns and insights, helping to address common myths. Managers should analyze their company's non-confidential data and transform it into logical infographics to encourage employees to gather new insights.
This document provides an introduction to understanding big data analytics. It defines big data as information that can't be processed or analyzed using traditional tools.

Architecting a Data Platform For Enterprise Use (Strata NY 2018)mark madsen
Building a data lake involves more than installing Hadoop or putting data into AWS. The goal in most organizations is to build multi-use data infrastructure that is not subject to past constraints. This tutorial covers design assumptions, design principles, and how to approach the architecture and planning for multi-use data infrastructure in IT.
Long:
The goal in most organizations is to build multi-use data infrastructure that is not subject to past constraints. This session will discuss hidden design assumptions, review design principles to apply when building multi-use data infrastructure, and provide a reference architecture to use as you work to unify your analytics infrastructure.
The focus in our market has been on acquiring technology, and that ignores the more important part: the larger IT landscape within which this technology lives and the data architecture that lies at its core. If one expects longevity from a platform then it should be a designed rather than accidental architecture.
Architecture is more than just software. It starts from use and includes the data, technology, methods of building and maintaining, and organization of people. What are the design principles that lead to good design and a functional data architecture? What are the assumptions that limit older approaches? How can one integrate with, migrate from or modernize an existing data environment? How will this affect an organization's data management practices? This tutorial will help you answer these questions.
Topics covered:
* A brief history of data infrastructure and past design assumptions
* Categories of data and data use in organizations
* Data architecture
* Functional architecture
* Technology planning assumptions and guidance
This document discusses the importance of data fluency skills in the 21st century. It defines key terms like data science, machine learning, data literacy, and statistical literacy. While these fields require extensive training, the document argues that domain expertise combined with basic data analysis skills can solve many problems. These basic skills include understanding data structures, using programming to interact with data, and exploratory data analysis through visualization. The data analysis process involves defining problems, collecting and preparing data, visualization and modeling, and communicating results. RStudio is presented as a tool that can support the entire data analysis process within a single integrated development environment.
"Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.” Howard Aiken, Founder of Harvard’s Computing Science Program.
Data is moving so fast these days, and there is a shift whereby people are paying for value, not technology. This is where cloud computing comes in: it is very empowering, because anyone with an internet connection can access it. With Power BI in the cloud, small businesses are liberated with the ability to use the same tools and techniques to explore ideas as larger organisations.
In this session, we will look at understanding the Power BI components and tools available in the cloud, including the Power BI Admin Center, Power Query, Power Pivot, Power View and Power Map. We will look at how to use them will accelerate ideas and help to clarify decisions, and related to this, discuss the roles within IT and the business in relation to these tools. We will also look at business puzzles versus business mysteries, a definition evoked by Malcolm Gladwell (Blink, Outliers) in relation to Power BI.
“Out there in some garage is an entrepreneur who’s forging a bullet with your company’s name on it,” said Gary Hamel, a management guru. With Power BI, let’s see how you can translate your ideas in to a message that people can see, using cloud as an empowerment tool.

Big data refers to very large data sets that cannot be analyzed using traditional techniques. It is characterized by volume, velocity, and variety. Analyzing big data can help solve problems and generate value. The amount of data is growing exponentially from various sources like customer transactions, photos, and genome sequencing. This growth is driving changes in analytics approaches and capabilities.
Data science brings together techniques from computer science, statistics, mathematics, and domain knowledge to extract insights from

Big Data : From HindSight to Insight to ForesightSunil Ranka
When it comes to Analytics and Reporting , There is a fine line between HindSight to Insight to Foresight . With the evolution of BigData technology, there is a need in deriving value out of the larger datasets, not available in the past. Even before we can start using the new shiny technologies, there is a need of understanding what is categorized as reporting or business intelligence or Big Data and Analytics. Based on my experience, people struggle to distinguish between reporting, Analytics, and Business Intelligence.
This document discusses big data and data science. It addresses three main points:
1) Big data methods and algorithms can be useful for smaller datasets as well as large ones.
2) To successfully extract insights from data requires a team with a variety of skills, including business and domain knowledge.
3) For HR in particular, big data can help determine the optimal time to approach potential candidates by analyzing patterns in their job seeking activities online.
La BuzzWord dell’ultimo anno è “Data Science”. Ma cosa significa realmente? Cosa fa un “Data Scientist”? Che strumenti sono messi a disposizione da Microsoft? E che altri strumenti ci sono oltre a Microsoft?
A lot of companies make the mistake of thinking that just hiring Data Scientists will lead to increased revenue or increased profit. For a company’s investment in Data Science to be successful the Data Scientists need to work on the right problems, with the right people, and with the right tools. In this presentation, I will talk about the lessons I have learned, and mistakes made in applying Data Science in commercial settings over the last 10 years. I will highlight what processes can increase the chances of Data Science investment being successful.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
