Choosing Data Science: A Decision Made by a Rare Genius
Oh, congratulations! You’re in data science, the least humble profession on Earth! Apparently, not only have you made a great career choice, but everyone else is an utter idiot if they haven’t jumped on the “data science” train yet. But for those not in-the-know (looking at you, the 99% of the world who dare to explore other career paths), here’s what your life could have been like:
- Being some super cool tech wizard everyone’s envious of (as if they’re not all sick of hearing about it)
- Earning a ludicrous amount of money (but don’t let it get to your head)
- Constantly showered in admiration and getting job offers from every company on Earth (no exaggeration, obviously)
Implications of this Life-Changing Field That You’re Clearly Missing Out On
As a kind soul, I will take a moment to look into the implications of data science for those simpletons who haven’t jumped on board yet. Brace yourselves:
- Cutting-edge technology like AI, machine learning, etc., revolutionizing the world as we know it (how will humanity cope?)
- Better business outcomes, efficiency, and discovering groundbreaking trends (yawn… when’s lunch?)
- A world where mind-blowing job opportunities await, making you question the life choices of all those around you.
A Nice Hot Take to Keep You Warm at Night
Let’s face it – everyone loves a good “hot take” to sum up the whole shebang. So, if you’re not in data science yet, here’s something to ponder during those sleepless nights spent regretting your life decisions:
Thank you, almighty data scientists, for single-handedly saving the world (cue superhero music)! The rest of us, the measly peasants, will bow before your impressive skillset and gravitate around you in hope of some much-needed enlightenment. Because data science is the ONLY practical career option on this planet, right? And those who dare to look elsewhere must be doomed to a life of insignificance.
For everyone else, maybe it’s time to explore the greener grass on the other (data science) side. Are you rushing now? You’re welcome.
