Reply to comment by thereissweetmusic in The big data delusion – the more data we have, the harder it is to find meaningful patterns in the world. by IAI_Admin

I am a layman as well but as far as I understand the article, as it talks about meaning and relation, variance mentioned by the commentor is not relevant. And I can see how it can be misconstrued as relevant when talking about meaning. It depends if meaningfull is understood as data extrapolation itself or its corelation to factual aplication.
