Data science is evolving rapidly. I’ll talk about our current and slightly future technical and philosophical challenges, including realtime vs non-realtime analysis, streams of data vs traditional databases, and some of the opportunities we have to learn amazing things about the world through our data and what this means for those of us who are immersed in working with it.
Hilary Mason is the Chief Scientist at bit.ly, where she finds sense in vast data sets. Her work involves both pure research and development of product-focused features.
She’s also a co-founder of HackNY, a non-profit organization that connects talented student hackers from around the world with startups in NYC.
Hilary recently started the data science blog Dataists and is a member of hacker collective NYC Resistor.
She has discovered two new species, loves to bake cookies, and asks way too many questions.
