One is my name, the other is not.
Data, I think because of digimon
Yes, I'm from the UK and that's just how it's said here.
I pronounce it ta da~! , jazz hands included
D@-a
If you mean like "Dei-tuh" , then yah . Just sounds more natural to me
As more data becomes available
Then we can start doing more with it
And as we do more with it
That that creates more data
My approach: A single data point is "dah-ta" Some quantity of data is "day-ta"
For example: "I back up my game's save dah-ta in case my hard drive's day-ta gets corrupted"
