Data analytics is getting pretty fascinating these days! Wish I had the time to take more courses
the only expected thing is to expect the unexpected
So… this post has been sitting in my draft box for a while now, just decided to upload it now.
**Disclaimer** This might demotivate you or motivate you.
Here we go:
Study conducted at the University College London (UCL) shows that Genetic differences are significantly associated with the likelihood that people take on managerial responsibilities.
A specific DNA sequence is associated with the tendency for individuals to occupy a leadership position and one’s intellect and moral aptitude.
So how worthy was this study?
Using a large twin sample, the international research team, which included academics from Harvard, NYU, Georgia Institute of Technology, and the University of California at Berkley, estimate that a quarter of the observed variation in leadership behavior between individuals can be explained by genes passed down from their parents. Technically, the researchers have identified a genotype, called rs4950, which is found in “successful” people. They compared genetic samples from thousands of individuals with information about jobs and relationships, finding that in both surveys there was a significant association between rs4950 and leadership.
Believe in destiny•fate? Well maybe, it's the rs4950.
Although the vast scientific community and respectful people from the academia fondly agrees (obviously they have rs4950), I have a tad regret in accepting this fact study. Because, according to 'science', it is technically impossible difficult for a dumb less-powered DNA to become successful (I know this might sound messed up)… Philosophically however, Any Rand would have a love•hate interest in this, but that's life… well, science.
“Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference. Each one of us must take responsibility for our own lives, and above all, show respect and love for living things around us, especially each other.” Jane Goodall

In a nutshell or two: I love aerospace. I'm an engineer, writer, a photographer, and a reader. And, of course, a blogger. I spent my high school years in New York City, managing to defy every urban bum new yorker stereotype (except for the "bum" part). My school life basically revolved around Aviation and Science Bowl. If you continue to read this, I can assure you three (3) things: (1) impeccable grammar (yea, ok) and spelling (thanks to auto spell check), (2) a total lack of entertainment (literally, everyone’s view of entertainment is different), (3) an alliteration of photos, and (4) so many listings. (and of course parentheses)
