(still strains the minds of the best)

machine readability is key.
agreement is hard.

managing information
different types of “data”
Wednesday, 13 July 2011
often gigabytes, not terabytes

“i invented a folder based system ...”
“yeah, we had a LIMS. it only ever got used to store photos
from lab nights out.”

why?
experimentation reliance
data moves, grows legs
funder/instit’n pressure
