Storage is cheap and that data _might_ be useful in the future. You don’t need to look any further than that.

Feral Integral posted:I think you are conflating some things here. Not all machine learning works like ganns or stuff goes in the black box stuff comes out. Spotify/pandora have never managed to find me music relevant to my interests no matter how long I spent trying to train it. Youtube has the closest thing to "success" in that it's given up and just recommends I watch what my subs put out recently. I mostly find new content from collaborations. Twitter (and facebook before I deleted it) do nothing but annoy me when they revert to "algorithmic" content instead of newest because it manages to be less relevant than just picking random items from my friends in the last 72 hours. These are the apex of the vaunted algorithm so I strongly suspect that no matter what they tell to marketing about their ad targeting they're just blowing smoke up their rear end.

Amazon's algorithm is really optimized for collectors of toilet seat covers, and it's the fault of the rest of us that we don't buy such high margin items nearly as often.

Truth, we had an AWS guy come in and give us a 2 day AWS 101 course. The course itself was poo poo but dude knew AWS and Linux front and back and we probably got more out of the random questions we tossed him for 30 min/day than the other 7:30.

Golgafrincham It is a planet with an ancient and mysterious history, rich in legend, red, and occasionally green with the blood of those who sought in times gone by to conquer her; a land of parched and barren landscapes, of sweet and sultry air heady with the scent of the perfumed springs that trickle over its hot and dusty rocks and nourish the dark and musty lichens beneath; a land of fevered brows and intoxicated imaginings, particularly amongst those who taste the lichens; a land also of cool and shaded thoughts amongst those who have learnt to foreswear the lichens and find a tree to sit beneath; a land also of steel and blood and heroism; a land of the body and of the spirit. This was its history. And in all this ancient and mysterious history, the most mysterious figures of all were without doubt those of the Great Circling Poets of Arium. These Circling Poets used to live in remote mountain passes where they would lie in wait for small bands of unwary travellers, circle round them, and throw rocks at them. And when the travellers cried out, saying why didn't they go away and get on with writing some poems instead of pestering people with all this rock-throwing business, they would suddenly stop, and then break into one of the seven hundred and ninety-four great Song Cycles of Vassilian. These songs were all of extraordinary beauty, and even more extraordinary length, and all fell into exactly the same pattern. The first part of each song would tell how there once went forth from the City of Vassilian a party of five sage princes with four horses. The princes, who are of course brave, noble and wise, travel widely in distant lands, fought giant ogres, pursue exotic philosophies, take tea with weird gods and rescue beautiful monsters from ravening princesses before finally announcing that they have achieved enlightenment and that their wanderings are therefore accomplished. The second, and much longer, part of each song would then tell of all their bickerings about which one of them is going to have to walk back. All this lay in the planet's remote past. It was, however, a descendant of one of these eccentric poets who invented the spurious tales of impending doom which enabled the people of Golgafrincham to rid themselves of an entire useless third of their population. The other two-thirds stayed firmly at home and lived full, rich and happy lives until they were all suddenly wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from a dirty telephone.

I can't entirely blame them, like anyone else with two neurons to rub together in their head, I disabled all the other histories, so they can't (or shouldn't) be based suggestions off what I click on (or get linked to (sometimes comedically)). And if they ARE still watching what I click on (or get linked to (sometimes comedically)) they do a real good job of not showing it. And then I adblock all the rest, so.

DACK FAYDEN posted:Pandora found me a band I loving love now, from other bands I like. Once. In 2007. I'll admit it, Spotify's been wonderful for me discovering music but I'll attribute it almost entirely to how I went about it. Like everyone I had a library of music that I'd ripped, then expanded, then moved to a cloud service which was Google Music since I could upload my library. Google decides to go to YouTube Music which, at least when they made the announcement, was probably the worst software I'd ever used. My wife had a Spotify account already which she made into a family plan and I joined that. When I did, I had a playlist of about sixty tracks I'd been listening to on Google Music. I usually did that, got into a pattern of listening to the same small group of tracks for a couple months so I recreated that playlist and listened to that for about two weeks until I started getting Discover Weeklys. Then I'd like what I liked that week and waited for the next week. Each Discover Weekly has 30 tracks, I'll like none on a bad week and maybe ten on a good week but it didn't take long to get enough new (to me) tracks to replace the old 60 track playlist where I'll be happy to put that on after going through that week's Discover Weekly a couple times. I don't like that it isn't very consistent, some weeks still have no tracks I like, but it usually has one or two which is enough to grow my library and discover new poo poo. I have no doubt that if I liked a wider variety of genres or had listened to a lot of my old library before it started recommending poo poo that it would not have worked. The only reason I find it useful is because I had a good seeding playlist from which I did not deviate and I make sure I don't listen to anything too far outside of the genres that narrowly define my recommendations. If you told me I'm the only person it works for I'd believe you.

Haven't used Pandora since like 2008, but I had my demos set up honestly, 20 year old man, and the ads I got were upcoming tours and albums for bands that were on the playlist (mostly metal). So, genuinely helpful. I got bored and switched the setting a 16 year old girl. Same music, but ads were almost 100% wedding stuff. Got bored again and set it to 100 year old woman, same music, all ads for SUVs.

i have a friend who works in amazons subscribe and save dept they regularly track items people add to their list for the discount then remove after they get the first one they do this because those are items that people do not want to subscribe to, they just want the discount this led to him having to remove all cockrings from subscribe and save he says they didnt have to do the same with pocket pussies because people were continuing to order more every month

all items are automatically assumed eligible when they meet supply/fulfillment criteria because amazon depends heavily on the algorithm then humans check after the fact for mistakes duz has issued a correction as of 17:14 on Mar 23, 2020 |
