my name is Jeremiah O'Connor I work for opendns and I'm a research engineer on the opendns Lobster of most exciting thing is just meeting new people and kind of we usually speak at security conferences because we're a network security company but this is a cool kind of new field you know just data science machine learning and just think it's cool to meet a lot of new people and see kind of like a different kind of aspects different presentation topics and a lot of similar stuff we do but just kind of we must've speaking in other kind of like subject geared to conferences like sick network security yeah I mean I think kind of data has always been like really cool but nowadays we just have more computational power to process it and I think what's really cool about nowadays for just you know data in general is that you know date is just being generated just astronomically you know and it's going to give me get more and more so now we can I don't even have you know humans to kind of like annotate and go through that data we actually need to use the machines so there's kind of you know moving from you know the more supervised you know a paradigm to unsupervised so I think that's really cool oh I just I mean I just wanted them to be entertained and it's not not fall asleep and you know hopefully just see something cool you know just we basically use data science to capture I mean you know basically fight cybercrime on the internet so you know what's cooler than that so just using algorithms to take on the bad guys and you know find you know different kind of anomalies in the internet and you know just analyzing the you know the crazy web because we've been doing clear web and now we've been doing a dark web analysis so just a crazy place it's good so yeah No you'll kind of shortcuts to just you got to work hard you got to want it that's that's what mostly than anything anything in life you gotta work hard and you got to really want it so other than that linear algebra study linear algebra study the algorithms and just kind of stay up to date with the most recent technologies because the industry moves along with that you know apache spark kind of some of the libraries we're using gen zoom and l TK for text processing a lot of stuff kind of i think there's a lot of interesting stuff too so i find something interested in and pursue it build stuff and just have fun yeah
