As a "data scientist" I found this article had much more meaningful content than most articles I've read in the past year. It's not just repeating how data science will be big in the next decade, it discusses who data scientists are and how to hire them.

I don't agree with this. Google is basically a big data sciences company. 'Data science' may be a new term, but it describes something companies have been doing for decades.
