Frog Act posted:and now Amazon has an audio visual feed of their entire lives twenty four seven Data Scientist: The Sexiest Job of the 21st Century quote:LinkedIn isn’t the only company to use data scientists to generate ideas for products, features, and value-adding services. At Intuit data scientists are asked to develop insights for small-business customers and consumers and report to a new senior vice president of big data, social design, and marketing. GE is already using data science to optimize the service contracts and maintenance intervals for industrial products. Google, of course, uses data scientists to refine its core search and ad-serving algorithms. Zynga uses data scientists to optimize the game experience for both long-term engagement and revenue. Netflix created the well-known Netflix Prize, given to the data science team that developed the best way to improve the company’s movie recommendation system. The test-preparation firm Kaplan uses its data scientists to uncover effective learning strategies. it's all a relatively new field and it has exploded with growth, companies know they can make a lot of money harvesting data from users and so now anybody who has data is trying to mine it or sell it. it's all very reckless when you consider the central role data mining and social media has taken in politics and speaking of politics, in america there are literally no laws protecting consumers from the "big data" industry which is completely unregulated and spying on people constantly Homocow has issued a correction as of 21:24 on Nov 15, 2018 |

There's a weird thing where the more you know about technology, the more of a luddite you start seeming, because you know all the features that are pointless, all the ways that things can fail, and probably you've maximized your efficiency for some kind of customized setup that newly developed products aren't tailored for and can ruin. You need to have some kind of blind naivete to be a futurist and put all your trust and money into every new product and scam.

sometimes ill see something that reminds me that the entire internet is supported by advertising. not actually selling the products be advertised, just advertising them. every new products ultimate purpose is to spy on you and send you ads for stuff youre not going to buy youtube makes money by showing ads on videos written by a computer and animated by sweatshops. these ads get "viewed" millions of times by clickfarmers in india who couldnt afford the products if they wanted to. the analytics generated by these fake views are then used by other companies to design products and ads that also wont get bought or watched the whole internet ecosystem is a giant ouroboros sniffing its own farts lol

Spotted in an sh/sc home networking thread, a story in several parts:caberham posted:Sorry to ask again, but does anyone know what caberham posted:It’s my god drat vaccuum cleaner from ages ago. Oh man thanks a bunch, it’s weird how after changing all my login credentials it uses my phones Bluetooth connection to pull in the data?? derk posted:what in the gently caress does a vaccuum cleaner need any kind of connection to anything besides a wall outlet for electricity? eames posted:iirc somebody reverse engineered this stuff and found that they're collecting maps of the rooms and sending them to the ~cloud~. I can't find the story right now so maybe that was just an Orwellian dream. jokes posted:90% of that article is praising/explaining the "security" of the .. vacuum cleaner .. with a single sentence explaining that it sends off data back home that includes Wi-Fi access points and passwords, and map data of your home. Alongside "reasonable" device telemetry. I for one welcome our new vacuum cleaner overlords. Any algorithms that predicted I would resist such helpful supervision must have been misled by bad data, haha, isn't that funny? I love our friends the computers.

the solutions to school shootings are going to get more and more absurd as people keep trying to invent new ways that the solution isnt to decrease the probability that a gun will be used to shoot bullets at children

the reason there are all these school shooting deaths is because some irresponsible parents continue to send their kids to school without kevlar vests

Schools won’t let kids wear vests or backpacks because they could be used to conceal weapons.
