I love this topic, but this article is literally just "there exists a paper" without any useful information about the paper aside from the inputs they consider in their model.
The issue isn't even that Cruise was involved in an incident. They were not at fault for the collision and were only involved after a (human) driver launched the victim into the Cruise vehicle. Cruise had their permit suspended because they essentially tried to hide their involvement/responsibility and withheld video footage from the DMV.
Not sure if there is a significant benefit, but I think its sort of Andrej's specialty as an educator to build things out from first principles. He has a habit of sharing his "from-scratch" version of important papers/methods. Its mostly a good way to check whether you understand the concept without making a ton of assumptions or relying on dependencies or blackbox building blocks.
It seems like an interesting topic, but this is the academic equivalent of turning a 30 second youtube video into a 15 minute presentation with intro, requets for engagement, outro, journal of feelings and learning, etc.
The result is an average of 1.71 days for an adult patient.
As a former employee, I think this is exactly what happened. A handful of people made out big while keeping up appearances. The closer you get to the executive-level, the faster the turnover rate. I've never seen that before in ~10 companies I've worked with. The internal game is maintaining confidence to subordinates while quietly selling your stake. The external game is also all about maintaining confidence, using "adjusted EBITDA". But the GAAP numbers don't lie.
So who is the primary benefactor of this Pork? Seems like this hasn't already been done is because it isn't profitable or scaleable like software is. It's not like there is a shortage of investors in technology.
My Dyson vacuum cleaner has a mechanism that can steer in pretty much every angle that isn't gimbal locked. If we're still talking about things you could do without regard to practicality, it could steer in 360 degrees in a RWD.
A professor of mathematics noticed that his kitchen sink at his home leaked. He called a plumber. The plumber came the next day and sealed a few screws, and everything was working as before.
The professor was delighted. However, when the plumber gave him the bill a minute later, he was shocked.
"This is one-third of my monthly salary!" he yelled.
Well, all the same he paid it and then the plumber said to him, "I understand your position as a professor. Why don't you come to our company and apply for a plumber position? You will earn three times as much as a professor. But remember, when you apply, tell them that you completed only seven elementary classes. They don't like educated people."
So it happened. The professor got a job as a plumber and his life significantly improved. He just had to seal a screw or two occasionally, and his salary went up significantly.
One day, the board of the plumbing company decided that every plumber had to go to evening classes to complete the eighth grade. So, our professor had to go there too. It just happened that the first class was math. The evening teacher, to check students' knowledge, asked for a formula for the area of a circle. The person asked was the professor. He jumped to the board, and then he realized that he had forgotten the formula. He started to reason it, and he filled the white board with integrals, differentials, and other advanced formulas to conclude the result he forgot. As a result, he got "minus pi times r square."
He didn't like the minus, so he started all over again. He got the minus again. No matter how many times he tried, he always got a minus. He was frustrated. He gave the class a frightened look and saw all the plumbers whisper: "Switch the limits of the integral!!"
In the Swedish version it’s a surgeon and a plumber, and it ends after the surgeon gets the bill and complains. The plumber then replies “Yea, that’s what I used to make, back when I was a surgeon”.
the blog posts series on rec system is interesting. But when I watch Netflix I still run into simple issues. can you please take care of some basics first, such as if I press 'thumbs down' then Netflix would never recommend that title again or similar to such titles.
They can't do that. Netflix now has very little content since all the big players have pulled out and started their own streaming services. Netflix has to recommend what it has: old movies, subpar TV shows, things you don't like, Netflix-produced content.
