TV commercial for exercise equipment, program, &/or software. When people testify it makes them "feel gr8," they're referring 2 vanity boost

Glad I'm not a deeply unpopular British politician. Don't want millions of gleeful munchkins dancing and singing on my grave when I'm gone.

OK, here my plan. Abduct Kim Jong Eun, replace w/othr Korean brainwashing specialist PSY (fun fact: name short 4 "psychological operations")

WashPost article re Wallops IslandVA.Oddest biz trip I ever took was 1989. Was w/tiny Navy contractor. Had rogue employee in cottage there

Bitcoin. Wealth of choice for trendoids, cypherpunks, goldbugs, libertarians, privacy zealots, & others who imagine government is evil.

Dear WashPost Sunday Mag Date Lab editors: If th guy you're fixing up's fave band is Partridge Family, please reject him w/extreme prejudice

HomesteadGrays. One of oddest names ever for American pro sports team. Negro League Baseball. Two hometowns: WashDC & Pittsburgh. Gr8 team

Looks like beautiful Spring weekend is underway here in northern Virginia. Running errands with th missus today. Will linger longer outdoors

Reading about new Robert Pinsky project. Thinkin bout bizarre incidnt in late 90s when then-US Poet Laureate phoned 2 say I'd givn him virus

Streaming BBC top 40 radio to see if British mainstream more interesting than American mainstream. So far, it's not bad.

CNN report on Psy's followup to "Gangnam Style" dissected "one-hit wonder" theme. That ain't him. He had buncha hits in S.Korea before this.

Will be working with an instructional designer on a data strategy course. Will work with video designer on a data-driven marketing shoot.

"#IBM: Flash Storage Hits Tipping Point" (ubm.io/Yje44L) JK--TCO-wise, flash is already cheaper than most spinning disks

RIP Jonathan Winters. Wonderfully goofy, endearing, & improvisational comic whose pantomimed petting-cat bit I recall as "all over the body"

Drafted new blog for #Dataversity: "Is Privacy a Lost Cause in the Era of #BigData?"

I'm getting more of these as I age. Retirement communities pitch themselves as "live the life," cuz "die the death" sends the wrong message.

PRC puts screws on "Django Unchained". Apparently, slave rebellions send wrong message & kung fu is only approved cinematc violence in China

Oh cool...spam promises to add 4 inches to my manhood...I've always wondered what it's like to be 5 foot 10.

RT @kexpplaylist#kexpMolly's Lips by Vaselines from The Way Of The Vaselines JK--Fluty female vocal reminds of early 80s Girls at Our Best

@apearson@mekncl@ConstellationRG All of which points to something I wish J-schools would realize: many grads become analysts. Same skills

@apearson@mekncl@ConstellationRG Now that my latest blog has published, you can see my argument for point asserted in the previous tweet

@apearson@mekncl@ConstellationRG Industry analyst core function is deep beat "reporter" providng in-depth analysis bsd on own mkt research

@meknclIn other words, the best analyst firms are those that simply stay out of the analyst's way.

@meknclAs far as I'm concerned, the best analyst firms are those that allow best analysts to build star power & pursue own research agendas

"Big Data Tests and Potential at #IBM" (bit.ly/122PmtF) JK--Discusses chief use cases for #bigdata.

RT @kexpplaylist#kexpAge of Consent by New Order frm Power, Corruption & Lies JK--For me, song payoff is awesome synth instrumental bridge

@meknclYes. News paywall's value is access to in-depth analyses (if news org provides that). That's also IT analyst firm core premium.

News paywalls. There are so many free sources of news on the Internet that you can stay very well informed without ever paying a penny

@snakeynagNot a palindrome. A palindrome is a phrase that reads the same forward and backward, eg "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"

@snakeynagGreat! Actually, not exactly an anagram. It's "bigdata" backwards, with the extra "b" at end to incorporate Bee Gees' surname.

Fun fact: #bigdatawas invented by A. Tad Gibb, the geeky brother the Bee Gees never talked about.

Wrote all 5 of next week's #IBMquick-hits on a single theme: "#Hadoopuber-alles." Felt like the time to return to & deepen this discussion

@HempStevensWhat's #Hadoop? Well, "Hemp," it's a controlled substance. But yr name indic8s you're probably hip 2 all that. Keep it on th QT

Front door bell rings. In our neighborhood, it's usually someone wanting to trim our trees. I like my trees as they are. Tall & imposing.

RT @kexpplaylist#kexpWhat New York Couples Fight About (feat. Kurt Wagner) by Morcheeba from Charango JK--Skye & Kurt on coolest duet ever

"Monetization"? Why do you want to render something into that particular French impressionist? Why not Pierre-AugusteRenoirization?

Whew! Too pooped to #Hadoop!

#bigdatamgmtA9: #Hadoopis "advanced" analytics, meaning predictive, statistical, machine learning, etc.

#bigdatamgmtA9: #Hadoopanalytics are any on unstructured data: social, machine, geospatial, event, clickstream, etc. Tons of NLP needed

#bigdatamgmtA8: Users need to know many use cases for #hadoop, much overlap with other #bigdataplatforms. Many ways 2 skin #bigdatacat

@IBM_DB2@katsnelson A7: I disagree. Silo is issue now, given that customers have deployed #Hadooptactically, not as strategic architecture

#bigdatamgmtA7: Must understand the fit-for-purpose profiles of #Hadoop& other #bigdataplatforms to deploy each optimally, avoid siloing

#bigdatamgmtA2: My article Business Intelligence in the #HadoopEra bit.ly/XstRkl

#bigdatamgmtA2: My article #Hadoop: Nucleus of the Next-Generation Big Data Warehouse bit.ly/XstLt3

#bigdatamgmtA5: My article: Hadoop Cluster Management bit.ly/XstJkX

#bigdatamgmtA7: Ensure #Hadoopdoesn't become another data silo by standardizing on core vendor platform & evolving from a nucleus deploy

#bigdatamgmtA6: #Hadoopcomplexity can be daunting mgt challenge. "Appliantization" of Hadoop helps streamline to crisp core Apache distro

#bigdatamgmtA6: Manage #Hadoopclusters. Big issue is enhance skills o DBAs, or hire outside? If outside, skills in short supply. Expensive

#bigdatamgmtA6: Hybrid #bigdatadeploys require common mgt tools, common metadata, common virtualization layer, etc. Tall order to fill.

#bigdatamgmtA6: Big challenge is in managing "hybrid" #bigdatadeploys that involve #Hadoopplus, say, EDW, in-mem, & NoSQL, in unified way

#bigdatamgmtA6: Tuning queries on your #Hadoopclusters is a challenge. You may need to select an optimal db layer--Hbase, say, vs. HDFS

#bigdatamgmtA6: To extent U have #hadoopcluster built from expert integrated systems with comprehensive mgmt tooling, you're on right path

#bigdatamgmtA6: Greatest challenges in managing #hadoopcluster include managing software, hardware, databases, & data with unified tooling

#bigdatamgmtA5: #Hadoopcompliance requires assess degree to which data in clusters more or less security/privacy-sensitive than EDW data

RT @gourleymslc: #BigDataMgmtData Explorer is key tech to find, navigate and visualize all data" - discussing #BigDatause cases...

#bigdatamgmtA5: Ensuring #Hadoopcompliance with security/regs demands regular audits, which require auditing/assessment tools

#bigdatamgmtA5: #Hadoopcompliance with security/reg policies? Start by involving chief info security & compliance officers in planning

#bigdatamgmtA4: Governance not required for, say, #hadoopcustomer sentiment data, which is ephemeral, and is aggregated 4 patterns/trends

#bigdatamgmtA4: Governance of #HadoopMapReduce models (version, access etc.) important for #datasciencecenter o excellence best practice.

#bigdatamgmtA4: But #Hadoopcan process structured/SoR data--customer, finance, etc. If it does, the usual governance/security applies

#bigdatamgmtA4: EDW is where system-of-record (governance-heavy) data still largely resides. #hadoopis where non-SoR data explored/prepped

#bigdatamgmtA4: Not much gov needed--YET--for #Hadoopdata, which NOT YET used for reference data. Social, location, event, etc is gov-lite

#bigdatamgmtA3: #Hadoopneeds a complementary SQL access/abstraction layer to support easy development for today's DB app developers.

#bigdatamgmtA3; #Hadooprequires data science skillsets in its developers. And, as range of MapReduce models grows, needs model governance

#bigdatamgmtA3: #Hadooprequires complementary model/algorithm libraries--MapReduce etc.--to enable fast modeling & development

#bigdatamgmtA3: #Hadoopalso requires complementary connectors to EDWs, in-memory dbs, and other #bigdataplatforms

#bigdatamgmtA3: #Hadooprequires complementary tools/skills in modeling, visualization, discovery, integration, performance optimization

#bigdatamgmtA2: The use-case overlaps between #Hadoopand EDW are extensive and growing. But Hdp not yet suitable for governance/DQ & MDM.

#bigdatamgmtA2: Over time, EDW natively incorporating support for more #Hadooptechs, especially MapReduce and HDFS.

#bigdatamgmtA2: #Hadoopcomplementing today's EDW, serving as ETL& sandboxing layer. Hadoop gradually moving into EDW use cases, eg, BI

#bigdatamgmt#Hadoopis complementing today's EDW, serving as ETL and sandboxing layer. Hadoop gradually moving into EDW use cases, eg, BI

#bigdatamgmtMany orgs using #hadoopfor hi-performance unstructured ETL. Some now using for next-gen BI.

#bigdatamgmtA1: #hadoopsupports the full range of advanced analytics, from structured/data mining to unstructured/text analytics.

#bigdatamgmtA1: #Hadoopis for any massively scalable advanced analytics & data integration over unstructured content with in-db execution

@IBMbigdata#bigdatamgmtA1: Core use cases 4 #hadoopinclude #bigdatarefining/staging, exploration/sandboxing, & unstructured analytics
