My guess was almost correct. The issue was indeed that they use "views with >3 secs" in some metrics and use "all views" in other metrics. Do one of the other, don't mix them up. http://www.adweek.com&

For some reason I just assumed that all the more "serious research" was done in California and completely forgot about DeepMind.

Why do you say that? What they recommend rarely is what I end up watching, but it's usually ballpark correct. So much of what motivates your daily YouTube viewings is externally, so there's only such much you can do. They are awar

This is super interesting. How would I go about working with these guys, considering that they're in Palo Alto and I'm in London? I understand there's a bunch of hops you have to jump through in terms of visas, but I've

Does any one know how Palantir started? I.e. from what I can remember it seemed to come out of nowhere. How did they manage to get such huge contracts from the start?

I noticed that too. Also, "leader".

My suspicion (based on nothing) is that they averaged viewing over viewings with length >3 seconds, but _counted_ all views. I.e. suppose your ad was displayed 5 times for 0.1 seconds and 5 times for 5 seconds. They would report this as

That was exactly the point I was trying to make when I responded to someone saying "well, with E2E encryption you don't have to trust them". Yes you do.

Well, he said he will accept what the board says. If the board doesn't tell him to return his bonus, they should get sued by the shareholders.

They've had them in Google News for ages. I've been using them for a while, work great (I'm on Android). So well in fact even though I am on the 0.1% of the population that's consciously aware of their tactics, they have

You still have to trust that the encryption is indeed E2E as they claim, no? I mean, whatsapp claims it has E2E encryption, but I've never checked...

Oh man, even funnier than the idea itself is over the top claim that they're going to "reinvent wine". Thanks for sharing.

So... 0.2% of the fires? That's not a great argument.

Maybe he believes that he can use the same money more effectively for causes that he cares more about. My point is that there's nothing inconsistent in being charitable whilst trying to minimise the amount of tax you pay.

No, it's not full of engagement, I'm definitely not saying I have a nice life, at all. But I don't think about food, no. Very very uninteresting. And I can understand someone whose mentality is "you have to eat, might as

Have you ever been in Vienna? I'm asking because I absolutely love Vienna, and I was recently in Budapest, and it looks like Vienna but poor and decaying. It was a bit sad actually. I was wondering if anyone else has the same impressio

It's fine, I don't care about any of "fantastic arts, music, literary, theatre scenes, both contemporary and classical". I'm quite good at entertaining myself, I guess.

If Bezos stance is based on billions of dollars that Amazon lost in AWS fees then I'm even MORE disappointed. And in any case, if it's true that AWS lost billions, that's the US government's fault, not Snowden.

Bullshit, London hasn't been a good place to live in at least 20 years. You just hung around because you were used to it. London as good things (lots of money, lots of entrepreneurial people), but being "nice to live" isn&#x2

Guys, we all know that Bezos is a micromanaging maniac. Because of this, he must have known (and approved) the stance that the Washington Post was taking on Snowden, right? What do you think? I must say that I'm disappointed with Bezos

I understand that the author understands that "that demand" is tourists. What I meant is that you can't measure the amount of demand (tourists) by looking at the amount of supply (restaurants), which the author does.
