Reproducibility and the Philosophy of Data with Clare Gollnick - TWiML Talk #121

Published: March 22, 2018, 4:42 p.m.

b'In this episode, i\'m joined by Clare Gollnick, CTO of Terbium Labs, to discuss her thoughts on the \\u201creproducibility crisis\\u201d currently haunting the scientific landscape. For a little background, a \\u201cNature\\u201d survey in 2016 showed that "more than 70% of researchers have tried and failed to reproduce another scientist\'s experiments, and more than half have failed to reproduce their own experiments." Clare gives us her take on the situation, and how it applies to data science, along with some great nuggets about the philosophy of data and a few interesting use cases as well. We also cover her thoughts on Bayesian vs Frequentist techniques and while we\\u2019re at it, the Vim vs Emacs debate. No, actually I\\u2019m just kidding on that last one. But this was indeed a very fun conversation that I think you\\u2019ll enjoy! For the complete show notes, visit twimlai.com/talk/121.'
