If I have missing values, I can use multiple imputation or even simple averaging and the hit I will take will be negligible. I simply do not work in the remaining 30%. I can tell if the work is going to be above my head and refuse the proje

Because sometimes those products are vital to Google's survival. Back when they released PLAs, they killed all comparison shopping engines. They were even caught doing it with internal emails showing malicious intent. There is a NYT ar

While I'm sure that's probably the motivation behind these lawsuits, they won't be able to do anything if Google is not at fault.

Apple does not control 90% of the smartphone market. If they did, they will face the same problems. Much like Microsoft did in the late 90s.

That is not true or true only very strictly speaking. There is this thing called a "dominant position". There are formulas which are used to calculate if a company has a dominant position. If they do have, it is up to the court to

But I thought I made it clear that I am not looking to do research. I'm not even looking for state of the art performance. I am looking for that 30% of the skills which allow me to do 70% of the tasks. Like RMS. Because outside of Goog

Libraries. If you want to do statistics in any other language, you have to reimplement 80% of the diagnostics and tests by hand and a good portion of methods and algorithms (no, not just esoteric ones).

You disagree wit what regarding ESL and RMS? >Ultimately I feel like you have to get the math right or you'll never acquire the intuition that helps you design your own approaches. But what do you mean by that? Do I really need it i

Regression Modeling Strategies. You need at least some notion of what regressions and probability are all about, but if you have the basics covered, this book will take you through 80% of the journey and the rest is some googling to figure

This is a very fragmented approach and is very frustrating to go down that road. Every field is filled with hype and people pushing their own agenda and publicity to further their careers. Speaking from experience with self learning discrim

You can burn at the stake for that kind of question. Jokes aside, it's not even close for actual modeling building. SAS has vertical integrations which make it worthwhile for corporations. Things like portfolio risk management, marketi

So you ask for evidence about painfully obvious things, but you feel like you can make unsubstantiated claims when there is evidence that directly contradicts those claims? Even when I addressed them already? All the rich people were agains

Ah HN downvoting at its finest. There is never time for anything. You don't HAVE time, you MAKE time. If you can't make time for it, you wouldn't do it if you had all the spare time in the world.

Oh, so people who pick apart your flawed plans should just shut the fuck up and let you agitate for a global revolution? Because that's what you are doing. You did not argue for better education. You argued for a change in the financia

The rx algorithms are not part of MSFT R Open, but they are severely restricted in this, so I kinda fail to see the point of having it. Perhaps someone from the team can chime in and explain the reasoning behind this?

No, Ben is an employee. Marcus Frind is the founder of POF and he did make a thread before he was MarkusPOF. It was very early on, not 2009. A couple of years before that perhaps. God it has been so long since then! The thread wasn't f
