Obsessed with data
Kate Strachnyi discusses dos and don’ts of data visualization and her path to becoming a 2x LinkedIn Top Voice recipient for data science and analytics. She also discusses concerns around fame, social media, and how they will impact the next generation.
Do you have any followers that have creeped you out or that you’d be concerned to see?
Yes. OK. Ben, I have a story for you, this was in Canada before the lockdown…
I’ve had a drunk data scientist whisper into my ear at a data science conference telling me that “I was the greatest data scientist in the world.” Ben, that’s when you know you’ve made it when that happens (laughing).
I think that movie [The Social Dilemma] is good for people that don’t know how all of that data is used. We knew about it because we are in this space.
