::: Tim O'Reilly is a visionary who figured out a long time ago that computer technology was an exploding field and he started a very successful line of books to support all new technology projects that were emerging and promising. The books all have animals on them and are uniquely easy to spot. O'Reilly now also has an on-line channel (O'Reilly Radar), and organizes conferences with top researchers and intellectuals in the field of computer science. | ::: Tim O'Reilly is a visionary who figured out a long time ago that computer technology was an exploding field and he started a very successful line of books to support all new technology projects that were emerging and promising.

− | ::: The first video is with Doug Cutting, one of the creators of Hadoop. He makes some very good points about what Hadoop is, what it is good at, and what it might not be good at (Homework 5 lesson?). After Cutting you can skip the 2nd interview (about video technology) and zip to the 3rd interview with Jeremy Howard, at time-tag 13:47. Then learn about big data and analytics, and what is said of ''data scientists''. | + | ::: The first video is with Doug Cutting, one of the creators of Hadoop.
