Readit NewsThen less than an hour later I had an ad on my phone for ferrero rocher candy. It was incredibly creepy.
I know supposedly the Google phone and Google home (in my case a model from Lenovo) doesn't parse your conversation for ads, but I have no other explanation.
For example, if you are trying to predict the weather you'd really like information on how big clouds are moving but all you have is wind speed and humidity.
Everyone acts like having fancier machine learning methods will solve their problem, but often the data just isn't good enough and getting better data is impossible.
> You can do things that don't scale to accelerate a good idea, but by definition you actually can't do that if the idea itself requires scale. The idea has to work on day 1, for customer 1.
He's talking about ideas that only work if the company has scaled to some non-trivial size of users or some other relevant factor. Uber would be an example. How could Uber work if there was only 1 customer? There would be no drivers.
If you need to "do things that don't scale" to launch your idea, your idea probably also needs to work with low scale of users/revenue/investment or you will be dead in the water.
I thought scale meant you could run your service for 1 million users just as easily as you can run it for 1,000 users.
There is nothing ethically wrong with asking students to purchase proprietary services, but it is tone deaf to make them buy absurdly expensive software.

It absolutely matters how many times the dollars come back to the bank because that is the pathway that lets the bank loan the same original dollar out multiple times.
The thing that seems to confuse people is the abstraction mechanism by which the $1,000,000 depositor doesn't see any of the $850,000 debt, and the by which they can withdraw the $1,000,000 without being involved in any debt transactions themselves. Fractional reserve banking doesn't create money out of thin air, it's just a system that allows for deposits to be put to productive use. The alternative is that deposits are entirely withdraw from the economy completely until the depositor wants to use them, which would be the economic equivalent of hoarding all your money under the mattress.
The rest of it also doesn't really "go to the bank", it's money that they must have on hand to service withdrawals, and absorb defaults and other losses.
The bank takes the new deposits and loans out 85% of it ($723k) to another small business. This small business goes and uses it to pay its employees and they all deposit the money in the bank. Now the bank has $2.573m in deposits.
The employees and the manufacturer can all withdraw the money at any time. So I struggle to see how this isn't creating money.
The fractional reserve system lets the bank loan the same dollar out multiple times. How isn't this creating dollars? If the bank takes one dollar and loans 85 cents to you and 73 cents to me, isn't there more money?
Can you please elaborate on this? How exactly is this happening? Why specifically country clubs and gated communities?
Some things do apply. I am not an ML expert myself, but just today i helped during the initial requirements call for a ML opportunity.
Question about 2.7.0: Currently we have an offer for a ML PoC for a very cheap price. Do you do initial work completely free of charge?
