It's helpfull in targetted advertising, but that's about it. And yes, advertising should be banned.

That's somewhat redundant. But regardless, I feel I just contributed to the shitload of crap on CP!
[edit] Oops, I just realized what I was implying. Um, sorry folks, I wasn't implying that CP has a shitload of crap, I simply meant that I was creating crap on CP!!! I think I'll go back to my hole now before I put more of my foot in my mouth. [/edit]

I hope you didn't put it in the crap first?

Nothing wrong with putting you foot in you mouth. Everything in moderation.
Just make sure that you use plenty of seasoning and ensure the edges are seared, to hold in the juices.

But Rage is French, so tell him he's an idiot, anyway,

Ah, I didn't know that! A useful tidbit.

7-10 terabytes a day... Great...
So 7-10 terabytes a day of teenagers posting about every song they heard and what they had for breakfast, grandparents posting every chain letter and joke they heard, and your neighbor describing in vivid detail their time on the old porcelain throne.
The term "signal to noise ratio" comes to mind.
If it were me, I'd distill that 7-10 terabytes a day down to the most interesting hundred megs, and forward the original chunk to the NSA to give them something to do (Hey, they're getting it anyway - Give them some crap to dig through).
But then, I'm not Big Data.

Here is a comparable example from the utilities industry.
We have an application that collects phase angles for electrical transmission 30 times/second.
After 'massaging' the raw input to compress the storage to significant changes, we are still generating 4G every 8 hours; this data is then studied by the local university to better understand how to manage the electrical grid.

As a counter example, where the "Big Data" isn't a bunch of crap: Cern[^]
Some tidbits from the article:
Article wrote: - 30 petabytes or so of data produced annually
- The Data Centre processes about one petabyte of data every day
- At peak rates, 10 gigabytes of data may be transferred from its servers every second.

Phew! you almost discover how we misbehave when you are out!
Have a nice weekend...

I may not understand Big Data, but it's not just "a lot" of data. Nor is OOP simply writing a class.

They don't say that to me. Maybe I'm hanging out in the wrong places.

I only work with Small Data, but I guess Big Data is the same thing just more of it.

Two big projects coming soon that I need to be involved with, been waiting for one of them to start for nearly a year now, been in discussions about the other for a month or two.
Got a start date for one yesterday.
Got a start date for the other today.
Monday 2nd February.
For both.
