I can't believe any of this made a difference in privacy. There is ZERO chance that the law can be enforced here. I've worked in few startups in Europe, no one understand their obligation, let alone the consequences from third par

What is the name of that search engine? I agree that this is what an effective search strategy is. But it is difficult to imagine an exploration this way. Exploration always imply that I don't know what I am looking for. I am working o

I loved Keras at the beginning of my PhD, 2017. But it was just the wrong abstraction: too easy to start with, too difficult to create custom things (e.g., custom loss function). I really tried to understand TensorFlow, I managed to make a

In a SaaS product, these are different issues: 1. I am making a proxy for churn (last seen == end of subscription in this product). 2. You are looking for active users (yearly / monthly / ...) I think your suggestion (point 2) is

> Like our hypothetical user who first appeared in 2012 and last posted in 2016 - right now they appear in the 2016 red line but if they showed up again today and you made the graph again next year, they wouldn't be in the 2016 red

Perhaps I should have articulated this in a better way. > So to be part of the red value for a given year, you have to be seen in that year and then what? Be idle for a year after that? Exactly! Last seen: this is year of their last cont

Hey, I double checked. I don't really see an issue. The only specific thing that affects 2023 is that I removed the users seen / last seen in 2024 (since it is not complete year). The aggregation is simple also: count the users fi

Thank you for clarification. I think part of the confusion that I had was that I didn't know about the downvoting option at the beginning. I think it will be really great of HN releases the scores of the comments.

by osm3000 3y ago
It is a very good point, and it is the subject of part 2: I want to understand if the title / website / time of sharing has an impact on the score

Damn! I honestly didn't think about it! That would have been really cool! I can't believe how this completely escaped me :D

I will double check. I see your point

> You could say, there might be people who keep posting stories even though the don't get upvoted, but that would be kind of irrational. If the community doesn't seem to be interested in what they post, they will stop doing so

I thought about it, and you might be right that a proxy for the comments upvotes can be established here. But I just couldn't come up with anything satisfying tbh. Besides, with comments, there are replies, replies to the replies, ...e

by osm3000 3y ago
Yeah that is sensible. It is one thing that I miss about the internet back in the early 2000s. I am still a bit conflicted tbh about what to do concerning that. The accounts don't really get deleted, and it is not far-fetched to imagin

I still like the simple interfact tbh ^_^ But I think it can be improved: personalized feed, allow following certain users, ...etc.

I would be really curious to explore such correlations. Tbh, while I was working on this, I did struggle with forming hypotheses to test, or even a suitable manifold for the different items/users (e.g., I didn't know some of the u

That is an interesting point! It makes sense to have a criteria that identify real users / long-term members. I will look into that. Cheers

I think the leaderboard is a cool idea! It doesn't need to be a leaderboard for "all the time", but over a recent window of time. > Karma conflates comment karma and post karma, so that’s not really the same thing. I agree
