Live Coding with Python: Mapping the room! Why a 30% chance of survival feels like "almost nothing"to us, and how Data Science helps us find better words

#Science #Data
We use words like "probably," "maybe," or "rarely" every single day. But what do they actually mean in numbers? In this interactive live-coding track, we make our gut feelings measurable. Using the example of an oncology diagnosis (a 30% chance of survival), we demonstrate how drastically statistics and human language often talk past each other. Using Python, live data from the audience, and the "Multidimensional Scaling" (MDS) algorithm, we will build a semantic map in real-time. Join us to see how subjective opinions turn into hard data, how we uncover the "Bermuda Triangle of communication," and how code can finally make risks understandable. Whether you're a beginner, a data nerd, or a communications pro: this track guarantees lightbulb moments and showcases the highly human side of Data Science. Watch, vote, understand!
