You should have the following:
PhD or MSc in maths or physics.
Outstanding mathematical skills are essential.
Experience of using analytical languages: e.g. Python, SQL, R.
Familiarity with data tools and technologies such as Postgres, Scikit Learn, NEO4J.
SQL IS NOT AN ANALYTICAL LANGUAGE
this post is also not nearly buzzwordy enough
no mention of "full stack"
or "digital transformation"
he's forgiven - it's a blog, and he isn't an expert in all the fields he's looking for people in
Kinda pedantic
that's why i'm not cringing while reading it
Most people will know that SQL is a database language
Actually wait
He put SQL with Python
Yea that's some dumb shit
oh man he doesn't even mention the cloud
Asking for a masters or phd in maths?
the VERY limited amount of people with masters or PHDs in maths
will NOT be working in the govt
read the whole thing and related things he links - it's interesting
I already know that what he's asking for is dumb though
does anyone even know SQL
like 1 person right
i can write select-from-where statements to pull from multiple tables
but tahts about it
Well
SQL is hardly a hard language
he's a bit of a dreamer PEP - wouldn't you say it would be good if they were working in gov?
it's just a pain in the arse
i mean you seem to advocate for the educated making decisions
And for 99% of SQL needs there are gems/plugins/whatever
or shaping the country
that will dumb it down
Well crafty
It's just, I know a lot of extremely intelligent people
