Just my thoughts #0454

I often say that the small things you consistently practice each day will change your life. People may think it is difficult to do so. However, this doesn’t mean that the practice itself is easy or hard; rather, it’s challenging to prioritize that little task every day. Why? Small things happen daily, and results take time to manifest, while small changes don’t significantly influence our profits. However, if these practices are regular and steady, it presents a different story. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Since 2008, the US CDC has published annual flu reports aimed at preventing the spread of influenza nationwide. Researchers took two weeks to compile data on each flu outbreak by calculating the number of cases and generating a report. Meanwhile, the flu had already spread across the country. Google addressed this issue by analyzing search query statistics. However, an error emerged in 2013 when the flu vaccine became scarce, prompting the media to publish numerous flu-related articles that further distorted the situation by conflating the search terms for flu patients. In other words, accurate data analysis depends on the ability to interpret quality, untainted data and its context. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
