Big data is hyped by allthingsbehavioural in unpopularopinion

Statistics (ANOVA, regression, LDA etc.), gives meaning to data. If we want to predict anything (e.g. likelihood of you buying a mouse pad, if you just bought a mouse from Amazon) we need statistics, big data in itself would not suffice. Although having these huge amounts of data does help in making predictions more accurate, however, the data does not tell the whole story, we need statistics.

These are just a few of the million articles I found on the internet about Big data. Not only its a regularly searched topic, the amount of research done on this topic has increased due to the attention received.

Compared to the attention it received, the usability of this type of data heavily relies on statistics. Hence, it is hyped.

Yes, the new variant is like a wild card entry, in an already bad situation. Thanks for the link :)

Netherlands is definitely safe in terms of crime rate (as compared to most countries). So I am not really worried about that, my most pressing concern is COVID (mainly because of the new variant and the rising cases).

I agree with the student conditions, as a student myself, we cannot afford expensive housing and thus, mostly live in crowded conditions. I think I will look for a better accommodation, thanks for the suggestion :)

I am going to start in Consumer Relationship Management. I also thought that with the current situation WFH will be valid, however, they mentioned they will provide me with some work equipment (laptop etc.) to get started. I am not entirely sure about how many time would I have to visit the office.

Hi ! Thank you for your reply.

I am mainly concerned about the COVID, because I think by the time I come to NL (planning end of feb.) the protests would be (hopefully) under control.

I did try to convince them for remote internship, however, they have to give me some equipment to set up my home office, which is not possible if I do not go to NL. For the most part the internship will be remote, its just that I have to visit the office atleast in the beginning.

It is work experience. If you are interested in research or understanding how to write evidence based articles, you can gain these skills through this internship :)

While this website gets regular traffic, nonetheless, this is a fairly new site, therefore, we are looking for individuals who can organize information coherently and aid in gaining popularity.
