Old is gold: timeless technologies in modern data science
💡 Amid the rapid pace of technological advancements, it's intriguing to observe how 'old school' methodologies still find their place, even in progressive fields like DataScience.
Take decision trees and their ensembles, like Random Forests, as an example. While they might appear rudimentary next to modern, complex algorithms such as deep learning, they offer unparalleled interpretability and simplicity. Ensemble methods, in particular, excel in scenarios where the goal is to avoid overfitting.
Similarly, the Fourier Transform, a mathematical technique with a rich history in signal processing, remains indispensable for tasks such as audio processing, image analysis, and data compression, even in the face of emerging advanced methods.
And who can forget SQL-managed relational databases? While the handling of unstructured data gets revolutionised by the emergence of NoSQL databases (and let's not get started on Vector Databases 😅), SQL databases with their structured organisation, ACID compliance, and robust query language continue to maintain a stronghold in numerous business applications.
These 'classic' methods, which might seem 'old school' in today's swiftly evolving tech landscape, have an enduring presence that speaks volumes about their effectiveness and relevance. They gently remind us that progress isn't just about discarding the old, but also recognising its strengths and applying them wisely to solve problems. 🧘♂️
And while you think about it, enjoy some 'old school' charm with film photography. 📷
There's an unparalleled magic in capturing a moment on film, waiting for it to develop, and finally revealing a picture filled with unique textures and colours. Check out some of our team's recent film photos from Serbia in the images above!

Almost weekly a friend or an acquaintance asks me, I want to learn to code; which language should I start with? More or less bi-weekly I get a DM on LinkedIn starting with My son should start programming; what is the best language for him?
Even before COVID hit humanity in 2020, healthcare was already under a lot of strain. Expanding global populations have put pressure on infrastructure and evolution hasn’t been as fast or as effective as many had hoped. When you add in the problems caused by a global pandemic, it’s a grim picture, especially for those without the resources to pay for innovative treatments and the best care. But it doesn’t have to be.
