Agreed - though I feel like every data use comes after the fact. Original software engineers/developpers rarely have the foresight that the data scientists need the information for (at least imho).
- lostcolony 6y agoTo be fair, the data scientists rarely have the foresight to know what the data scientists need the information for. The only time I've seen a data scientist correctly include all the data they needed (but still be wrong) was when they answered "All of it. We need all of the data".
- boringg 6y agoSo true. Tough to know in advance which data will hold the secrets.
