Last Notes for 2023!!

-
I am not writing about data science today. Instead, I sit down to write onward plans with a heart brimming with excitement caused by the delightful meal I proudly crafted, which Mum really loved. Yes, I made it happen, and I can't help but chuckle at the achievement. Lolz.  As we stand on the threshold of 2024, my hopeful anticipation is for a year filled with everything good. I hope it takes us farther away from hell and brings us closer to a utopian state. The past months have unfolded with a myriad of speaking engagements and opportunities to influence and impact. In my two-plus years as a data analyst, this final half of the year has been marked by unprecedented deep dives into data analytics.  One resounding lesson has emerged – improvement is contingent upon setting certain foundations: Having a clear purpose, aiming for lofty goals, and actively avoiding stagnation in the hope that success will come to you. This realization is so in writing. Many admire skilled writers ...

The one-size-fits-all unwitting assumptions (Part 1)

-
In the echoing chambers of research and analysis, the choice of statistical tools is not just a matter of convenience; it's a pivotal decision that can shape the very essence of our discoveries. Unfortunately, it is often in this crucial choice that many falter, unwittingly assuming that Pearson's correlation coefficient is a ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution. It is a grave misconception; a shortcut that threatens to undermine the integrity of our findings. Pearson correlation, or simply "r," is a statistical measure that quantifies the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two continuous variables. It ranges from -1 to 1, where: -1 indicates a perfect negative linear relationship (as one variable increases, the other decreases linearly). 0 indicates no linear relationship. 1 indicates a perfect positive linear relationship (as one variable increases, the other increases linearly). This means If you were to graph the data points, a linear relationship w...

A fast changing world: The Darwinian Theorem

The concept of "survival of the fittest" resonates deeply, but it's important to understand its broader scope. In the human sphere, we have evolved to this point where being the strongest or most dominant isn't necessarily the key to success. Now let's ponder: what did Darwin leave unsaid? In today's era of rapid technological advancements, we are witness to groundbreaking changes that shape industries, economies, and even our daily lives. Artificial intelligence, automation, and other disruptive forces have the potential to revolutionize entire sectors and reshape the job market. While concerns about AI taking over jobs persist, our focus should shift to cultivating skills that ensure our continued relevance in this transformative landscape. To stay ahead, we must embrace continuous learning and skill development. The headache should not be the fear of automation, but rather the challenge of staying relevant and competitive. Embracing new technologies and lev...
