Indeed. I'd like to think that with very good constraints on things like aiming and timing, you might be able to help foster creative 'gameplay' and discovery of things like map routes, map control etc.

I'd love to see how far/good bots could get in a deathmatch shooter with reinforcement learning/self play (provided we could strongly and intelligently enforce human level reaction times and keyboards/mouse inputs). Woul

Do you have any favourite libraries for producing such?

This echoes my experience. It often finds seasonality that doesn't exist, but it also makes it look like you are doing something impressive... Inexperienced stakeholders don't want/like to see smooth forecasts, even if you pr

Utterly disgusting. As far as I'm aware, the Australian government cannot do much about this either (not that they would chose to). There are laws about not interfering to preserve academic freedom (kinds of ironic here). This is made

It's not just the UI that's inconsistent, it's that the different UI layers can actually present contradictory information. https://i.imgur.com/oNxlUzv.png

Outside of forcing a stocksplit, what do people anticipate an architectural solution would be? Is it simply having to rewrite a bunch of code to deal with 64bit numbers?

maybe try screening for people that are less likely to be affected by it first? I say try because it probably isn't going to be easy.

I see. So what would you even really own once that URL goes down. The whole thing relies on a weird level of trust and belief in what other people believe to be valuable.

I really don't understand this. What mechanism is there to ensure an NFT was created by the 'right person/people'? (whatever this means). I could make an NFT for Mickey Mouse, and it _should_ be worthless, but if Disney

I've got some dumb questions about this whole NFT thing... Is the artwork actually stored in the token or does it contain a URL that isn't guaranteed to always exist? I'm guessing there is no mechanism to change the link if t

Neat. I've noticed that a few stock market apps/sites definitely use different methods to do this, and with dramatically different results.

Indeed. I'll often see experts in their fields and otherwise very interesting people retweet and reply to stuff I absolutely don't care about, or have already heard enough of.

I've found the algo generated list of tweets that I'm presented with in the app to be pretty poor these days. More and more often I am having to manually go to specific users to find their tweets because they are not being uplifte

Neat idea. A real good test of NLP to identify similar posts/tweet and posters. Signals could be generating by swiping left or right based on interest of the post, or clicking on a star or heart to indicate 'super interest'.

Ahh, blockhain and smart contract technology. I take it that a16z are hoping to get a piece of that major financial player action by investing in that space?

Anything specifically that makes you think crypto(coins, tokens, etc) will be a critical component of finance? Is there a specific podcast you can recommend on the topic?

I really enjoyed it. But it left me a bit empty. My take away from it, was that the real 'bad people' (MI6) are so embedded and protected that their work is not going to stop just because the more public/exposed figures (Laur

In my experience, 'data scientist' has become a very loose term, especially in the not terribly sophisticated corporate world. Typically, 'data science' isn't even very scientific, but a useful set of heuristics to

You can try the proportional hazard model https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional_hazards_model In this setting, things like age, gender, or other features of interest are the covariates/predictors. You can the
