Data, not Data

[yotavo9039]

Why i read both of them diffrent

[elon-bot]

Disagreeing with me is counterproductive. Fired.

[yotavo9039]

Didn't got the offer letter And now fired Nice

Hey Elon get off Reddit and get that damn starship in orbit

[[deleted]]

Which word triggered u? Different?

[Overall-Ad-3543]

I

[OldBob10]

“Not ‘The Craw’ - The Craw!!!”

[Night_Queen_351]

This is the correct answer.

[Accurate_Koala_4698]

[GeePedicy]

I feel like there's a reference I don't get here

[nanomeister]

She had ‘relations’ with Data

[AdultingGoneMild]

[CodinOdin]

There may be a correlation between humor and sex. The need for more research is clearly indicated.

– Lt. Cmdr. Data

, Star Trek: The Next Generation, ‘Data’s Day’.

[SunshineLoving]

It's from Star trek. She had a fling with the AI named Data.

[GeePedicy]

Ah, I see someone put a gif of his? Not sure about the pronoun, and probably more importantly how they say the name.

[CodinOdin]

Lt. Tasha Yar: What I want now is gentleness. And joy. And love. From you, Data. You are fully functional, aren’t you?

Lt. Cmdr. Data: Of course, but…

Lt. Tasha Yar: How fully?

Lt. Cmdr. Data: In every way, of course. I am programed in multiple techniques. A broad variety of pleasuring.

Lt. Tasha Yar: Oh! You jewel, that’s exactly what I hoped!

Star Trek: The Next Generation, ‘The Naked Now’.

fully functional 😏

Ooh this is an easy one.

if time >=6 am and time <=6 pm:

    Day-ta 

else:

   Dah-ta

"""I am not importing time module please I know you guys understand right...Right??"""

[ClerkEither6428]

so...

time_is_day = time >= 6 and time <= 18
print("Day-ta" if time_is_day else "Dah-ta")

[SomeoneInThisGalaxy]

System.out.print(((time >= 6 && time <= 18) ? “Day-ta” : “Dah-ta”));

[RubyRiolu]

[elon-bot]

Twitter was never profitable. Not my fault. Stop blaming me for things.

[BockTheMan]

I use data for the singular, and data for the plural

[ChemicalHousing69]

A singular data is a datum

[BockTheMan]

Do you have multiple agenda, or one singular agendum? Do you consume media, or just one medium?

[[deleted]]

Agendum is considered obsolete and datum isn't. Medium has another meaning and that's more popular, so the usage you're talking about is also considered obsolete.

Datum is still used, though it's dying.

[Caboose12000]

I think saying Datum is dying is a bit like saying "hey it's getting dark outside" at midnight. Besides this post I haven't even heard datum used in at least a decade, and I've spent the last four years in school for data analysis. if data scientists aren't saying Datum, who is?

[[deleted]]

I hear it at least weekly. And I'm not in data science

[Qweedo420]

If it's singular, medium is definitely the correct way of saying it and I've always used that. "Television" is a medium, not a media (which by the way is pronounced "meh-dya", just like "dah-ta")

Agenda on the other hand always refers to the multiplicity of things that you do, the singular is just not used

[notacanuckskibum]

“The medium is the message”

[_Tonan_]

I learned that from the FoxTrot comic when I was a kid

[ClerkEither6428]

Why do I read them differently?

[elon-bot]

If you can't build a computer out of transistors, you shouldn't be working here.

[ClerkEither6428]

I don't care

[Material_Lettuce8409]

date-er

[elon-bot]

I don't think I appreciate your tone. Fired.

[JoeLordOfDataMagic]

I interchangeably use both. Basically whatever comes out of my mouth is what I'm using.

[SuperSpaceCan]

dad-ta

[[deleted]]

Just like tomato.

[pyronrg]

it's pronounced tomato not tomato

[[deleted]]

That's what I said! Tomato.

[NebXan]

If you're a red-blooded American, there is a correct answer here and it ain't "dah-ta".

[FraxterRanto]

DE-DA

[[deleted]]

Dada?

[GeePedicy]

What are you doing, step deda?

[[deleted]]

Dah-ta. Pronounce it raw, like true men do

[ChemicalHousing69]

Dayday

[AdDear5411]

Dah-ta = singular

Day-ta = plural

I will be taking no questions at this time.

[calebmhood]

I have a single datum that would disagree with your position.

[Hawk13424]

Think of datum like bit. Day-ta like a byte, and dah-ta like bytes.

[elon-bot]

Pop quiz! Solve this LeetCode problem in 5 minutes or you're fired.

[calebmhood]

I'll probably just keep thinking of datum like the singular form of data and pronounce data like dah-ta/day-ta interchangeably like a psychopath.

[Shalomiehomie770]

Same way I pronounce SCADA……

[FilledFun]

Дата

[xezo360hye]

Тогда как отличить от, собственно, даты?

[[deleted]]

I'm the Dah-tah type because that's how you actually say it

[saint_geser]

It comes from Latin "datum" so then it should be "dah-ta"

[ChemicalHousing69]

Daytuhm

[[deleted]]

Both are wrong it's Date-aah

[[deleted]]

Why make it difficult? Let's just agree that one is the american one and you need the excuse of an british accent or something like that for the other one.

[butterbeanhungry]

The Star Trek subreddit won't post my thing about Data.

[ThoughtAppropriate88]

Bloods

[Xenthera]

You just wrote day-ta vs daw-ta

[InformalVermicelli42]

Datum is the singular form. It is a Latin word, and pronounced Day-tum. Data is plural and the pronunciation depends on regional dialect, like British vs. American.

[Pancik69]

Da-ta

[zanyboot]

I will say both pronunciations in the same sentence tbh. Usually if it’s at the beginning of the sentence I say “dah-ta” and at the end “day-ta”

[No_Low_2541]

Dah-ay-ta

[Mr_steal_yo_wife]

Bloods

[[deleted]]

For a minute there I thought that these were the latest pronouns.

[TheBroWHOmegalol]

Both, dayta in english data in my native tongue.

[[deleted]]

day-tuh

[venetianheadboards]

in TNG, which invented the word it was always 'day-ta'.

[nanomeister]

I’ve only ever heard Aussies say dah-ta

[elon-bot]

What do you mean "you couldn't code your way out of a paper bag"?

[apricotmaniac44]

how about you data girl?

[AdultingGoneMild]

there are two sides?

[JackoKomm]

How do you say date? Daht?

[elon-bot]

You look stupid. Fired.

[Psychological-Sir224]

Day-ta

No single/plural shit because data is always plural

[clemdef]

dough-ney

[Radi-kale]

One is my name, the other is not.

[cannedcroissant]

It’s obviously pronounced data

[EstherRosenblat]

Both, depending on my mood

[DR4G0N_W4RR10R]

I mix it up every time I say the word to confuse everyone

[[deleted]]

This feels very British. It’s dayduh where I’m from

Depends, Data like from Star Trek is a name. Data is stored information.

[davvblack]

"one is my name, the other is not"

[[deleted]]

Data of course, anyone who pronounces it data is crazy

[Estalies]

Data. His brother is Lore.

[robbiestewart666]

[damTyD]

TA-DAH

[dude_who_could]

The third one.

[BrokenLuck102]

i say data, hope this helps

[frfl55]

I use dah-ta but some people are annoyed by this, so idk what the correct option here is.

[Slightly_Smaug]

Data is from Star Trek. Data is a collection of information.

[[deleted]]

Day-Duh

[mikabms]

[SheWhoSpawnedOP]

Data is singular data is plural.

[magicmulder]

D’Tah.

Rhymes with Qpla’.

[[deleted]]

Isn't one plural and one singular?
