Physics majors or people employed in something related to physics: What kind of job do you have right now, what is it like, and how do you like it?

I apply tools from statistical physics, machine learning, econometrics, computational finance, natural language processing, visualization, network science, and statistics to massive amounts of data in order to build quantitative models.

We study the emergent behavior of complex systems, like stock market crashes, ethnic violence, and political unrest.

SCIgen is great, but it can't be seeded with any particular author or topic. This is fun if you want to make paper titles that look a lot like your own PI's.

"Data scientist" commonly means "business intelligence analyst" or "statistician who works with data." But what I want it to mean is "scientist who uses methods from statistics, applied mathematics, and machine learning to develop and test hypotheses about systems in which progress is now driven largely by the analysis of large volumes of data." This is the way in which it applies to me.
