People argue about what even is canon in the first place anyway. Even the starting point can't be agreed upon.
Tumblr media
Including the 2nd ask bc I'm assuming they're from the same nonny? (pfft like more than one person would send me asks in one day lmao)
Anyway ... I mean, I'm mostly ambivalent on the first point re: people disagreeing over canon, bc ... like, idek where to start on all the shit that I could say about fans' relationship to and interaction with canon or even what canon technically is, like, by definition (and therefore what even qualifies as canon).
But I did want to address the second point bc I think it's a good opportunity to just sort of toss this hot take into the void: "Stating that fiction is subjective will ruffle some people's feathers at the minute" - so what? So. What. Fiction is subjective, all art is subjective, and that's something that is true, has been true, and will be true regardless of some fans' decision to just decide that things don't work that way.
They can get their feathers ruffled as much as they like, but people need to learn that their personal emotions and feelings about A Thing don't mean that they can just decide that That Thing is suddenly something else (or decide something else is suddenly That Thing). It's just like how words like gaslighting and narcissistic and abusive and torture and trigger have become so diluted bc people a) don't actually understand what gaslighting, for example, is, and therefore cannot possibly call it out with any real degree of accuracy, so they just end up throwing a really weighted term at something as basic, human, and everyday as telling a lie. Or an emotional argument becomes abuse, or being squicked by something makes it a trigger.
OR, on the opposite side of the coin, b) maybe they actually do know what gaslighting or abuse is, but then they will categorize anything that remotely falls within the realm of the same definition as being gaslighting or abuse. I, personally, for example, really hate the way that some people claim Mobius tortures and enslaves Loki. It drives me up the wall when I see those takes because - okay, are these terms technically correct? Yeah, technically, which is what they use to justify it - "Well, this source defines "torture" as xyz, and Mobius is clearly doing z, so Mobius is a torturer." But words mean shit, so are you really asking me to accept that Mobius tortured Loki just as Thanos tortured Loki? Yes? Okay, how? No? Okay, why not?
Here's the thing - Mobius never laid a hand on Loki, nor did he sadistically, literally play with Loki's mind. Remember, Loki was being influenced by the mind stone in Avengers and the Other had a constant connection to Loki's consciousness. Thanos (and the Other) tortured Loki. Mobius ... was mean to him during an interrogation and also lied about Loki being responsible for Frigga's death (and I've said it before, Mobius was being an unreliable narrator in this scene and anyone who believes - because of Mobius - that Loki actually killed Frigga is both factually wrong and also an idiot). Like, Mobius is shitty to Loki but Thanos is torturous to Loki. The two are not the same, regardless of how they may technically be defined. By calling the former torture, consistently, bc his behavior meets some arbitrary technical definition, you're actively diluting the word bc you feel like its weight lends credibility to your argument that Mobius sucks.
... I got off-topic for a second there, I'm sorry. But back to my point: fiction is subjective and I don't care whose feathers I ruffle by saying that. It's true, and acting like it's not so that you can feel like you have the "right" interpretation of the character (thus giving you personal validation which, I'm sorry to say, the Emperor thought that he was wearing fabulous new clothes but that didn't change the reality that he was butt ass naked) is just ... *gesticulates wildly bc words fail me* shitty.
#also yes i do realize that there are degrees of subjectivity and a certain amount of objectivity applies#to art and fiction but i'm not gonna go into all that#suffice it to say i have a degree i know how fiction works#interestingly i just saw a post the other day that struck me bc well#it's an ernest hemingway quote and he's talking about how the symbolism in the old man and the sea doesn't actually exist#he's like 'the sea is a fucking sea. the old man is an old man. that's it'#and i mean yes he was most likely drunk and just firing off some annoyed reply bc he was an unpleasant person especially later in life#and thus should be taken with a grain of salt but my point in bringing it up is to say that hemingway asserting there's no symbolism#doesn't negate the symbolism that ended up in the novel. that book is consistently taught in english classes#especially in college#it's taught and analyzed and various meanings and interpretations have been extracted from it and those things don't suddenly become *wrong#just bc hemingway was like 'no i didn't intend that.' - once consumed by an audience the material becomes what the audience makes it#death of the author is actually a pretty significant thing in literature#tld;dr: fiction doesn't stop being subjective just bc you want it to the end#incidentally the line 'people are heartless about turtles bc its heart beats after it dies#but the old man thought i have such a heart too' or something like that i can't remember#is just *chef's kiss* that's a raw ass line#anyway sorry i have to go now bc my shift is over lmao rip my post i don't have time to revise#asks#a nonny mouse#charlotte replies#also none of this is aimed at you anon your ask just happens to be my soapbox

What Are The Prerequisite Skills Required To Become An Information Scientist In 2019?
Data Extraction is the foremost and principal step in information science, making SQL an important tool. SQL is the most important programming language required for Data Science. It is a database question language which implies that it's used to retrieve data from databases.
Many corporations have began using Hadoop-as-a-Service so knowledge scientists needn't have in-depth working information of Hadoop. R is the most well-liked tool for knowledge science aspirants and skilled knowledge scientists alike. R is custom-made to develop statistical models for analyzing large amount of information. While R is a superb tool for complicated statistical drawback, it has the issue of a steep learning curve, making it troublesome for newbies.
Microsoft Excel is widely used for information analysis, creating spreadsheets, visualization and sophisticated calculations. It will educate you the basics of information analysis and tips on how to interface with tables.
It may also allow you to to understand descriptive statistics through its visualization skills. While it has been in existence for many a long time, its formal name was ‘Statistics’ and the Data Scientist was known as ‘Statistician’. This statistics powers the automotive and gives it the flexibility to process all the information that comes alongside the way in which.
Release your Data Science tasks faster and get simply-in-time studying. In this data science project, you will work with German credit score dataset using classification strategies like Decision Tree, Neural Networks and so on to classify mortgage applications utilizing R. In this data science project, you will predict debtors chance of defaulting on credit score loans by building a credit score rating prediction model. There are two really necessary subjects of mathematics that one should know earlier than getting into Data Science & Machine Learning. While the depth of mathematics could appear daunting at first, however if you use the proper strategy by way of the sensible implementation of maths, it may be quite enjoyable!

Overall, for newbies who are studying how to deal with data, Excel can be a good start. Linear algebra is central to all of the matters of Mathematics, and within the case of Data Science, Linear Algebra types the core spine of Machine Learning. Various machine learning subjects like pc imaginative and prescient and pure language processing rely heavily on Linear Algebra. Normal Distribution, also called Gaussian Distribution is a representation of huge samples of information in a plot. It is a distribution of the values of a variable utilizing a chance operate. In a traditional distribution, there's a symmetric bell-shaped curve where the observations cluster at a central peak the place they represent common or mean.
But nowadays anybody can purchase these skills if one is dedicated to it. The solely challenge is to seek out out what skills to be taught and from where to study. As extra corporations become knowledge-driven, professionals skilled in data science must maintain updating their abilities based mostly on the current business’s demand. A NASSCOM report estimates that the info analytics sector shall be in an rebellion stage to $16 billion by 2025. Thus, extra organizations will, due to this fact, search for knowledge professionals, growing the demand considerably. Skilled candidates in a knowledge subject corresponding to data scientists and knowledge engineers will increase by 40% by 2020. Most of the information scientist’s time is spent in writing SQL and associated scripts.
In order to turn into a proficient Data Scientist, it is a must that you learn R. It is also in style due to its code-readability and an easy studying curve. This implies that it is a perfect programming language for newbies. Python is an interpreter based language because it interprets the Python code line by line.
