I don't think that somebody who is observing or predicting behavior should also be participating in the 'experiment.'

I have to think about how to not spread myself too thin. It's a really great problem to have.

To the extent that you can find ways where you're making predictions, there's no substitute for testing yourself on real-world situations that you don't know the answer to in advance.

Data scientist is just a sexed up word for statistician.

We need to stop, and admit it: we have a prediction problem. We love to predict things—and we aren’t very good at it.

People gravitate toward information that implies a happier outlook for them.

You don't want to treat any one person as oracular.
