that are in data or maths

hello yes I would like to apply for the position of misfit

But only a few of them have masters in maths etc, it's not particularly NEEDED

if you got A*s in maths, further maths, then first class in maths bachelors

The masters is kinda redundant, the work experience as a data scientist would be worth more

ok i see your point

than 1-2 years doing a masters in something you're already great at

yeah math master's degree aren't that common. it's more common to do math undergrad and then a masters in something more commercially viable

Yea

exactly

That as well

A lot of people do a bachelors in maths to show hey, I'm fucking good with numbers

And that will take them in software, engineering, physics

architecture

finance

anything really

Yea finance

Asking from PHD/Masters from the worlds best Uni's as well? lmao i hope he's preparing to offer them starting of 500k

most of the people i know with graduate degrees in math are....math teachers

even then the investment banks will gobble them all up

Ya

I will say that making a post like that though is a step in the right direction

As someone who studied history, I will say we need less people who studied history in positions like chancellor of the exchequer and shit

Or least people who reskilled

at least* and have evidence of reskilling

he's talking about paradigm shifts in the whole structure of it

there's a longer blogpost that goes into more detail

"If you want to figure out what characters around Putin might do, or how international criminal gangs might exploit holes in our border security, you don’t want more Oxbridge English graduates who chat about Lacan at dinner parties with TV producers and spread fake news about fake news"

fucking dead on

``Here is a panoramic photo of the unified control centre for the Large Hadron Collider – the biggest of ‘big data’ projects. Notice details like how they have removed all pillars so nothing interrupts visual communication between teams.``

``Now contrast these rooms with rooms from politics.

Here is the Cabinet room. I have been in this room. There are effectively no tools. In the 19th Century at least Lord Salisbury used the fireplace as a tool. He would walk around the table, gather sensitive papers, and burn them at the end of meetings. The fire is now blocked. The only other tool, the clock, did not work when I was last there. Over a century, the physical space in which politicians make decisions affecting potentially billions of lives has deteriorated.

British Cabinet room practically as it was July 1914``

wired.co.uk said Cummings is running No. 10 like a tech startup

https://www.wired.co.uk/article/dominic-cummings-who-brexit-blog

Cummings is bridging the world of strategic AI / technology with that of government so as to allow them to make better decisions. I naively thought government was already making use of machine learning but it seems not
