Best you can get is some bounds for whatever effect you want to predict and those bounds will open wide very fast. As for lots of data, doing proper econometric models requires really well gathered data. Data is published quarterly or yearl

Economics is a science and what an economist calls economics is not what the market things an economist knows. In a science you are interested in testing hypothesis. Econometric/statistical models will generally serve to test general h

One really cool thing to do is consider the agents to have limited computational capacity. There are a few NP economic problems, and you can’t expect agents to really be solving enormous computational problems in their heads.

Undergrad Econ courses still present micro and macro economics as two disciplines, but that’s theory from the 70s at best. Graduate level economics packs a lot of economic models where for example the interest rate depends on the intertempo

One way to make this realistic is to add game theory to the simulation. Otherwise, the most important assumption in economics will be left out: rationality in decision making.

You will find active learning interesting. It starts by attributing a value to each point in your domain that it learns to match the expected gain in some performance metric. This metric can be learned so it’s okay if it’s really hard to sp

Whichever has the most information wins. When the information has structure you can heavily exploit it for generating synthetic data. For this I point you to Apple Sim. It’s a repository of 3D models for interiors. You can generate many lay

You can find the answer by trying the following: generate random data according to a model, fit a linear regression (or any other distribution), sample from the distribution, add it as to the training set.

Author writes about types being applied for ergonomy, which is interesting. Types add static information that can be used by IDEs. But there are other reasons for using type systems: correctness and performance (unboxing, optimization)

I think it won’t ever hurt to know the topics in SICP. The interpreters and other components presented in the book will help the user navigate so many different problems, and the use of Scheme will instruct the reader in functional programm

You would be surprised to see what the older generations think about what we consider to be formal and professional, and how much of our lexicon started out as more informal vocabulary imported by upper classes. Are you sure your opposition

You will be sometimes wrong and sometimes right. So don’t punish yourself when you are not sure. Always be transparent over how confident you are in your analysis and what will be the consequences if you are wrong. Try to always focus on th
