I can see there being issues with reproducibility, i.e. getting the exact same results, but has there ever been a time when science was more replicable? Data/techniques/findings/papers are under more scrutiny than ever. No po

At an individual level that may be so, but if they're doing it en-masse then they essentially had secret/sensitive competitor information when they made an offer to buy WA, daily active users, usage-by-demographic etc. On top of t

If you're the author, I'm not sure that the definition of recall@k is correct. >Recall@k is a metric evaluate how many items, in the recommendation list, are relevant (hit) in the ground-truth data.

I accept that it can be a disorder, but they don't say whether hoarding (or, 'organising' I think is more accurate) is just a natural human compulsion. From early childhood we seem to be drawn to collectible/hoardable&#x

What's the problem with being aware? It's difficult to accidentally eat the minimum requirements for protein, without overeating carbs/fats.

I don't think this contributed to the Dreamcast's downfall. Given the state/speed of CD Writers at the time, quality of CDs, difficulty of finding ISOs, download speeds, and the temperamental Dreamcast laser, it was far easie

This is absolutely bizarre. Why can't they just leave the option to view old ones there, but disallow new annotations? Secondly, why are they using click-through rate as a metric to gauge usefulness? In instructional videos annotations

Well done to the guy. What an interesting time, when a person can spend 5 hours per day for 3 years creating a product that has 1.5M visitors per month, but makes just about enough money from it to not be poor. Hopefully he can think of a b

I don't get the point in trying to make sense of a death - he was broke, unemployed, used up etc - when the man seems to just have had mental issues long term. Perhaps the stress of his existence might explain throwing food at a worker
