I went to a really interesting talk at Foo Cafe in Stockholm tonight. I stayed almost 2 hours over my time limit, but it was so worth it. The talk was by Martin Neumann, and he gave us an introduction to big data and some tools commonly used to wrangle it. Below are the notes I took throughot the talk. I cleaned them up a tiny bit, but mostly these are just for my personal benefit and are super messy - if you didn’t attend the talk they may not be that useful.
