What is your biggest problem with data, whether it be querying it, storing it, manipulating it, processing it, etc.<p>What is that one problem, if solved, would make your job much more efficient?

As someone who is not in the field but reads about it from time to time I see the same theme over and over: The formatting, consistency, and manual cleanup of data. The theme of data scientists who are &quot;data janitors&quot; that spend most of their time &quot;cleaning data&quot; is a consistent one.

storing and querying it. It&#x27;s huge and the engineers haven&#x27;t been able to provide easy access.
