Great PowerPoint. Really LOVED how it took you 100 slides to explain mood analysis.

Re:Ask HN: Do startups actually do data science?
on Tuesday December 09, 2014 @03:48AM (#8721723)
You're right the term can mean anything, but I alluded to my meaning when I mentioned "ML problems".
Thanks for the tip about Hortonworks/Cloudera, I had never considered such a role but that's exactly what I want to be doing next year.
Ask HN: Do startups actually do data science?
I'm a Stanford MS candidate in CS. Are there any startups actually hiring for real data science positions? The term seems so overloaded to the extent that recruiters are ready to label anything from Excel to "data infrastructure" as data science. Where can I find a role working on actual ML problems?

That's what I'm worried about. I'd be acting in a data analysis/software dev role. What can I do to change the language?
Want to start work as a consultant – what should I watch out for?
I'm potentially going to start work on my first independent consultant job, but I was hoping to hear from others experienced in this area about what to expect in terms of standard agreements.Do most pay all at the end or can I ask for half upfront? What is a standard rate per hour? Finally, should I agree to this: http://pastebin.com/7m2xBjLg

Good luck

The article claims that the US is "near the bottom in terms of actual social mobility", but only supports this with some points about how social mobility in the US isn't that good.
The US is still one of the most meritocratic countries in the world.
