The difficulty of dealing with CFS might cause depression, but apart from that depression does not have to do anything with CFS. Anti-depressant and psycho-therapy are the two best treatments for depression though, everything else is just e

Since some comments made the comparison to psychological factors, CFS is not an imbalance of neuro-transmitters in the brain, which it is the case for all psychological illnesses. As for the latest research, it is a dysfunction of all mitoc

Yes, all algorithms are A.I. in that case. My 1 min effort description would be biased towards popular songs, but you can easily change that by selecting songs that are not popular, but that occupy a lot of playtime with a user.

Why trying to do it via A.I.? Why not checking which are the top 3 most played songs by other users who are the 1000 users who have the most similarity with the current user, and then recommend the current user the most played songs from th

If he claims to have invented email after it has been invented, he does not seem very smart. No other claims can make him win the case if this condition does not stand, can he?

Not caring about sexual harassment is like not caring about racism, homophobia and similar human rights violations. So not sure if that's the kind of person you want to be.

It's a bit more, since most of the $19B ($15b afaik) was FB stock. So $110M might be more like 3.5% instead of 3.5% or 10% of their yearly profit. Still not that much, but also not nothing.

I think if you can prove that you can scale revenue or users by the factor of 1,000 within 2-3 years, while only increasing headcount/staff by the factor of 10 then they would be interested. That's basically the definition of a st
