>also this. data science is a meme. you still need to understand computers and it's likely the data you'll work with will always be the worst case scenario of unworkable dogshit anyway.
This is exactly why I think data science is retarded - because on paper data scientists are separated from the engineers (software engineers) who set up the application and data engineering pipelines they are sampling the data from to run their shitty scikit-learn ML pipelines anyways.
It makes no sense to me that most organizations think of data scientists as separate from software engineers because I don't understand how you can properly do data science work without knowing the data models and potential data transformations happening in the app's backend.
As a former data scientist in a big corpo (similar to being a former tranny who detransitioned), I just remember feeling so fucking lost because you're silo'd away from the developers who are actively working on the data pipelines and even further away from the guys who actually built the backend's relational data models or even worse the unstructured mongo SHIDDING AND SHARDING clusterfuck
