Should we all be teaching “Intro to Data Science” instead of “Intro to Databases”?
Summary: Advocates reframing database fundamentals as core data-science pedagogy, not a legacy intro. Proposes teaching relational algebra, transactions, and schemas alongside linear algebra, and treating data management at scale as central to the data scientist's toolbox.
