However I somehow stumbled into the intro CS class at OSU (back when I was on campus) and haven&#8217;t looked back sense after changing my major.  Ever since then I have enjoyed every second of learning; even the times when I accidently deleted a &#8220;}&#8221; and couldn&#8217;t find the error for hours.  Easy to say I&#8217;ve come a long way from there (mainly because of linters&#8230; jk&#8230;I hope&#8230;), and now am settling in software engineering for big data in my capstone project for OSU.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We consumed 97  zettabytes of data as of 2022, and are consuming and generating more data every second according to Domo and their popular research blog and infographic: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.domo.com\/data-never-sleeps\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.domo.com\/data-never-sleeps\">Data Never Sleeps<\/a>.<\/em> Thats 97 X 10^21, which equals: 97,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes of data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I  have a new interest in data as it pertains to software engineering and the problems of having so much of it.  In this blog I hope you the reader will go on a journey with me (a, more or less, complete newbie) where I learn from\/with my team on how software engineers handle the modern problem of big data through our capstone project at OSU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s climb this metaphoric mountain of data together \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey fellow data point generator!
