And you would be partially right.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>You might also cynically scoff at the notion of \u201ctruth\u201d being tossed around in a cavalier manner. And you would be right in your indignation. However, \u201ctruth\u201d has a nicer twang to it than \u201cassertion\u201d or \u201cclaim\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div style=\"aspect-ratio: 1600 \/ 1200;\" class=\"figure nocaption\">\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simoahava.com\/images\/2022\/05\/fifteen-commandments.jpg\" title=\"Ten truths about data\"><\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"fig-img\" height=\"1200\" width=\"1600\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simoahava.com\/images\/2022\/05\/fifteen-commandments.jpg#ZgotmplZ\" alt=\"Ten truths about data\"\/><\/p>\n<p>    <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Anyway. Let\u2019s get to it.<\/p>\n<p>                <span class=\"simmer\"><br \/>\n  <span class=\"close\">X<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\n    <span class=\"fa fa-md fa-bell\"\/><br \/>\n    <strong>The Simmer Newsletter<\/strong>\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Subscribe to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simoahava.com\/newsletter\/\">Simmer newsletter<\/a> to get the latest news and content from Simo Ahava into your email inbox!\n  <\/p>\n<p>  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-1-data-is-passive\">Truth #1: Data is passive.<\/h2>\n<p>One of the OG truths.<\/p>\n<p>Often, when presenting data, people use a phrase like <em>\u201cThe data shows that\u2026&#8221;<\/em> or <em>\u201cThe data clearly states that\u2026&#8221;<\/em>. While I <em>know<\/em> what these people are trying to say, it\u2019s still a semantic cop-out.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>data<\/strong> doesn\u2019t <em>do<\/em> anything. It\u2019s a passive medium \u2013 exploited, wrangled, manipulated, molded, and <em>shaped<\/em> to provide evidence or justification for, or even a diversion from, whatever the <em>presenter<\/em> is trying to state.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-2-data-is-subjective\">Truth #2: Data is subjective.<\/h2>\n<p>Another rehash from the first version of this article, and another no-brainer.<\/p>\n<p>When you look at an analysis, or a graph, or the rows in a raw data table, <em>you<\/em> are generating a unique interpretation of what you see. There are no objective truths in the evidence in front of you.<\/p>\n<p>This can easily slip into an ontological argument, and that\u2019s fine. The fact is that <strong>data quality and analysis<\/strong> are <strong>not fixed<\/strong>. As I wrote in the original piece:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>A single data set can shift from useless to incredibly insightful without a single datum changing shape, size, form, or function.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"truth-3-data-is-boundless\">Truth #3: Data is boundless.<\/h2>\n<p>Oh yes \u2013 and the importance of this truth just increases as the <em>scale<\/em> of what we <em>can<\/em> and <em>do<\/em> collect increases in orders of magnitude with every passing year of technological advancement.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s impossible to have <em>all the data<\/em>. It\u2019s not just technologically infeasible \u2013 it\u2019s a <em>philosophical<\/em> impossibility.<\/p>\n<p>So a line must be drawn. And it\u2019s so very, <em>very<\/em> important to understand where this line is plotted. You <strong>must<\/strong> understand the limitations of your data set when offering it as evidence with any sort of representational capability. You <strong>must<\/strong> be able to communicate these limitations when prompted for, or even proactively in order to keep the results fair and reproducible.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-4-data-hates-silos\">Truth #4: Data hates silos.<\/h2>\n<p>OK, I used the word \u201cabhors\u201d in the first version of this list, but that was just a Thesaurus talking.<\/p>\n<p>For some baffling reason, many companies still treat data as something that can be delegated to an arbitrary job title (the <em>analyst<\/em> or the <em>data engineer<\/em> or the <em>scientist<\/em>) while the rest of the company proceeds to ignore (and neglect) the all-encompassing reach of the data pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Data <strong>is<\/strong> the lifeblood of the organization. It doesn\u2019t care about job titles. It doesn\u2019t care about your matrix organization or your flat hierarchies or your unlimited PTOs.<\/p>\n<p>You need to know all the nooks and crannies within your company where data is being collected and processed, and you need to constantly evaluate and audit these processes.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-5-data-is-a-process\">Truth #5: Data is a process.<\/h2>\n<p>Picking up from above \u2013\u00a0remember that data isn\u2019t something you can just wrap up in a one-off project. From a regulatory point of view, your company has a responsibility of being in touch with the upstream and downstream impact of all the data wrangling going on within (and beyond) its walls.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not just that. Your company is generating absurd amounts of data with every passing second. You need to <em>react<\/em> to fluctuations thereof (and things are <em>constantly<\/em> in flux), and you need a <em>process<\/em> in place to properly nurture the data pipelines within your company.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-6-data-can-be-ignored\">Truth #6: Data can be ignored.<\/h2>\n<p>My favorite truth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Being \u201cdata-driven\u201d is a lie! Don\u2019t fall for it!<\/strong> Based on some 20 years of experience, most companies work with data that is completely misunderstood and where the baseline quality is just ridiculously poor (although, remember Truth #2!).<\/p>\n<p>If you want that smelly heap of ones and zeros to <em>drive<\/em> your company then be my guest. Wave to me while plunging into the abyss with a <em>data-driven<\/em> smile on your face.<\/p>\n<p>If the data says A, and this is backed by experimentation, rigorous testing, and as solid a data set as you will ever come across, but your <strong>gut<\/strong> says B, feel free to go with the latter! You <em>can<\/em> ignore the data. There is no categorical imperative compelling you to do what the data says (although, remember Truth #1!).<\/p>\n<p>However. <em>However<\/em>. You <em>must<\/em> be able to justify this so that the business case makes <em>as much or more sense<\/em> as going with what the data analysis instructs you to do.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t just throw a hissy fit and ignore the data because you feel it is your divine right to walk off the edge of the Earth just to prove a belabored point. You need to be able to build a business case for your decision, and you need to be able to convince your colleagues that it\u2019s worth the risk.<\/p>\n<p>For some reason, many data platforms are very <em>prescriptive<\/em>. They force the company to adopt schemas that might not be relevant to the business cases of the company but instead only serve to make the analytics platform digest the information in a predictable way.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simoahava.com\/analytics\/the-schema-conspiracy\/\">Monolithic, generic schemas are, in general, <em>a bad thing<\/em><\/a>. They force the <em>company<\/em> to adjust to the analytics platform rather than the other way around.<\/p>\n<p>I remember spending many a second wondering just how I can \u201ccheat\u201d Google Analytics to digest an <em>Add To Cart<\/em> event on a website that didn\u2019t have a shopping cart; just so that I could use the ecommerce report suite. This is an exercise <em>no one should have to endure<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-8-real-insights-are-rare-and-thats-ok\">Truth #8: Real insights are rare, and that\u2019s OK.<\/h2>\n<p>I feel like many analysts act like John Nash in <strong>A Beautiful Mind<\/strong>, where they look at a data set and hope that patterns will just jump out, fuelling some amazing new insight that will completely turn their company around.<\/p>\n<p>Well, you\u2019re either in for a long wait or you\u2019re not doing your job well.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lovely theory in evolutionary biology called <em>punctuated equilibrium<\/em>. It states that most of evolution is actually a very slow, steady progress. However, occasionally momentous upheavals happen, introducing chaotic, more rapid change in the process.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019m not an evolutionary biologist, but this theory was adopted into linguistics by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rise-Fall-Languages-Dixon\/dp\/0521626544\">R.M.W. Dixon<\/a>, which is a genre I\u2019m much more familiar with.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I think that many analysts don\u2019t respect this, and they try to either <em>find<\/em> these upheavals unsuccessfully or, worse, they try to <em>introduce<\/em> them with new tools, new collection methods, and new <em>schemas<\/em>, just to \u201cget results\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>But the fact is that much of what we do in analytics is based on steady <em>observation<\/em> and providing <em>stable<\/em> data for other processes to digest.<\/p>\n<p>We are <strong>gardeners<\/strong>. Not treasure hunters.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-9-data-is-a-side-effect\">Truth #9: Data is a side effect.<\/h2>\n<p>OK, this isn\u2019t <em>always<\/em> true (shocking!), but it\u2019s particularly poignant in the world of digital marketing and analytics.<\/p>\n<p>There are very, <em>very<\/em> few actual <strong>features<\/strong> in apps, sites, and services whose <em>main purpose<\/em> is to generate data.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, as analysts, we most often <em>tap into<\/em> existing features, and add data collection as a <em>side effect<\/em> to them.<\/p>\n<p>The main purpose of a checkout form isn\u2019t <strong>to generate a conversion<\/strong>. No \u2013\u00a0its main purpose is <strong>to generate a purchase<\/strong>. The conversion ping is just a side effect of this process.<\/p>\n<p>As analysts, we tend to get caught up in the importance of our work, and we forget that most of the time our companies, our clients, our developers, or even our marketers <em>don\u2019t care that much about the data generation<\/em>. They just want the feature <strong>to serve its original purpose<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, data engineering tasks are often <strong>deprioritized<\/strong>. It\u2019s a shame, but it\u2019s also a fact.<\/p>\n<p>The person working with the data needs to clarify the importance of these <em>side effects<\/em>, too. The role of the data engineer (or analyst) is often one of <em>consultation<\/em>, as they need to make others understand how these side effects can actually be worth the investment of time and resources rather than just development overhead.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"truth-10-data-is-difficult\">Truth #10: Data is difficult.<\/h2>\n<p>For years and years, all my presentations ended with a slide that said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Data is difficult. Data quality is <em>earned<\/em>, not <em>acquired<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This, I think, is still very important. Particularly with the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more people were exposed to more and more charts, more and more analyses, and more and more misguided interpretations of data.<\/p>\n<p>I <em>hope<\/em> people understand how difficult it is not only to <em>collect data<\/em>, but to figure out its <em>processing flows<\/em>, its <em>downstream impacts<\/em>, its <em>regulatory challenges<\/em>, and how to <em>present it<\/em> in a meaningful way.<\/p>\n<p>I <em>hope<\/em> people understand that \u201cML\u201d and \u201cAI\u201d aren\u2019t just magical buzzwords. Algorithms that fuel machine learning and artificial intelligence require fine-tuning <em>and<\/em> a human component with enough expertise (and courage) to set the processes in motion.<\/p>\n<p>Working with data is as difficult as it has ever been. There still are no shortcuts: data quality <strong>must be earned<\/strong> through hard work, with a curious mind, and a strong heart.<\/p>\n<p>Simo out.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seven years ago, I wrote on my former employer\u2019s (the amazing Reaktor) blog a tongue-in-the-cheek article titled 10 Truths About Data.
