@AMS @0x2ba22e11 @dashdsrdash @mhoye I might even argue that "big data" must still be "big" even after removing data that is only being used to search for significance or train associative or probabilistic models, and probably never should have been collected at all, much less stored long-term.

@log @AMS @0x2ba22e11 @dashdsrdash Reminds me of that old line about a mediocre play, that it was new and good, but the parts that were good were not new, and the parts that were new were not good. Big data is important, but the parts that are big aren't important and the parts that are important aren't big.
