By the way, your post was just crawled by Google, and it probably represents a couple cents into their billion dollar quarter. How do you feel helping the big guys, huh? Working for free for the man... you're disgusting, sir!

- jmtame 18y agoYes, I've been bad! I'm going to sit in time out bbs
- siong1987 18y agoLOL. I misunderstood what you have said. Since the code will be open sourced, it will definitely benefit thousands of companies. In fact, there was one graduate student who was in our campus last semester was doing research in this area. He did a very good job on this. And, he won the first ACM machine learning prize for the paper. If you are interested in this area, you can actually go to the library and find out the paper. Now, I think he is now working in the Microsoft Research Team(the usual career path in our campus). I actually did a tiny recommendation engine using one of the collaborative filtering algorithm - slope one predictor last two days. It will be up on the web very soon. I am having problems updating my server because rubygems.org is down!
- jmtame 18y agoIt's all good, I think I need to stop hanging out on YC today. I have to catch up to Matt on this Cocoa Programming book, and then I've got a final project to prep for, and finally a meeting tomorrow with the company to talk about some marketing stuff. Clearly YC is not where I should be right now :)
