Summary: "Data Science"? is a collection of scientific approaches to obtain meaning from data. When data science using properly, it can bring development. Data is abundant and we can find and collect it anywhere, even in our own life. Being data scientists for ourselves, making a data-driven decision for life is possible. I think our phone is the source of data, we can see the time we used our phone day to day and analyst what is most used and what is not. We can collect data by counting our actions every day on our phones too. For example, our spending, the food that we consume, our exercise, etc. We will become more aware and scientifically know ourselves.
