Why Big Data is Ringing You Up at Dinner

September 19, 2014 by Daniel W. Rasmus Leave a Comment

Big data wants to know how you will vote in November (it also wanted to know how voters would lean in the Scottish national vote and other exercises in democracy around the world).

And because there is no data about the … [Read more...] about Why Big Data is Ringing You Up at Dinner

Why is Uncertainty in so many of Today’s Headlines

September 23, 2011 by Daniel W. Rasmus Leave a Comment

I just completed a brief interview on uncertainty, and I don't think my answer was as precise as it could be. So I thought I would write out the answer here. Hope is a fact but certainty is a myth. Through the construct of hope, people may believe that things are stable or certain, but they never are.
