#big_data #soc_sci #sci_method The observation is that data sets are getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger in a fundamental way. As the size of data grows, what does this imply for social science? For how we conduct the business of science? Weve known big data has had big impacts in business, and in lots of prediction tasks. I want to understand, what does big data mean for what we do for science?
