Electrical Engineer major as a data scientist?

Hey all, I am a senior EE student and have been developing an interest in data science. At my current job as an EE intern, I've found myself managing lots of data and performing various kinds of data analysis. In doing so, I've actually realized I quite like it. Even though my experience is not "real" data science, I am genuinely interested in exploring this avenue and wanted to get your thoughts on the practicality of being a data scientist as an EE major? Are there any courses or ski…

Anyone else cringe when faced with working with MBAs?

I'm not talking about the guy who got an MBA as an add-on to a background in CS/Mathematics/AI, etc. I'm talking about the dipshit who studied marketing in undergrad and immediately followed it up with some high ranking MBA that taught him to think he is god's gift to the business world. And then the business world for some reason reciprocated by actually giving him a meddling management position to lord over a fleet of unfortunate souls. Often the roles comes in some variation of "Product …

Which major

So this year I’m going to start at a community college and most likely transfer to UIC in a year because I already have 25ish credits from AP and college classes. I feel like the new data science program with a specialization in computer science would interest me more than computer science bc I’m a big math person. The only part that’s making me reconsider this is because the cs program is older and more established. Realistically I would probably take the same courses with minor differences. I was wonderin…

Has anyone built a recommendation system off of the (public) Goodreads reviews?

This seems like a slam dunk no-brainer which would help out a ton of people. The reviews are mostly public. The ratings are from 1-5. The books are orderly organized by genre, and have other flags associated with them like high concept, young adult, etc etc. It seems like such an obvious idea that I would be surprised if nobody had done this before.

What's missing in the AI bias debate

In my experience, debates about bias in AI rarely consider whether AI should be used for a given decision in the first place. Debates are often about how to fix the bias, not whether AI is a good way of making a decision (or providing decision input). I think it is important to ask a number of questions to determine if AI should (not could) be used to solve a given problem, e.g.: Can humans handle the decision making equally well at reasonable cost levels? Does the decision have a significant impact on …

For a little context, I'm a 21 year old guy that lives with his parents, and over the last three years I've been able to work a min wage job and managed to save most of my salary because they (my parents) insisted I don't need to pay bills. Recently after the big dip I decided it was good time to invest in crypto and put about 40% of my fiat money in. Fast forward a week or so, I decided to tell my parents about it and my mom got really mad saying that I got scammed and that I'll never see …

The hardcap of 250 million moons will never be reached

Many of us (myself included) assumed that distribution would continue until the hardcap was reached, but this is incorrect. The monthly distribution is on a predetermined schedule that drops a fixed 2.5% each round and doesn’t take claim activity into account, and all claims expire after 6 months. Two users (u/iNstein u/mellon98) recently reached out on this issue so we asked the admins for clarification. They confirmed unclaimed moons are considered permanently lost and will never re-enter orbit or count…

China Secretly Developed Autonomous Killer Robot Submarines

The Chinese military recently declassified a decades-old program to develop robotic, uncrewed submarines that can target and fire at targets without human input.

EventDrop, A Method To Augment Asynchronous Event Data And Limit The Adverse Effects Of Overfitting

Event sensors are bio-inspired devices that imitate the brain’s efficient event-driven communication mechanisms. In contrast to conventional sensors, which capture the scene synchronously at a fixed rate, event sensors report the changes of the scene asynchronously. For example, event sensors, such as DVS cameras, capture changes in luminosity over time for each pixel independently rather than intensity images, as conventional sensors do. The benefits of higher temporal resolution, lower time latency, hig…

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bvfj5_8rNz-tUpc6kHPVkBdIOG5lSpEdbjwujUyVFUU/edit?usp=sharing "My WR is 7 for 10k hands - am I a winning player?" Some form of this question is asked often with a couple of standard responses: 50/50. You need 50k hands. Check out Primedope (https://www.primedope.com/poker-variance-calculator/) I was hoping to provide you all with another option. I think Primedope is a cool-ass website, but the way we're using it when we direct people there has a mas…

How to make business people understand how important documentation is?

I am in the situation where there is no documentation, and the only DS guy. The only way is to look at the code or asking in-charge people. And I said it's really important and efficient to have docs to address the issues, code logic in a shared folder. So, I propose spending a week to write both technical and business documents. They said something like everyone has other important things to do. Documentation is often underappreciated as it didn't generate seen revenue. submitted by …

Unexpectedly, the biggest challenge I found in a data science project is finding the exact data you need. I made a website to host datasets in a (hopefully) discoverable way to help with that.

http://www.kobaza.com/ The way it helps discoverability right now is to store (submitter provided) metadata about the dataset that would hopefully match with some of the things people search for when looking for a dataset to fulfill their project’s needs. I would appreciate any feedback on the idea (email in the footer of the site) and how you would approach the problem of discoverability in a large store of datasets edit: feel free to check out the upload functionality to store any data you are comforta…

Hi all, I recently finished my masters in data science and joined a consulting firm as a data scientist with the promise of data science projects.

Let's clear up the facts around EIP-1559, the merge/triple halving and ЕТН becoming a deflationary asset.

I'm finding it incredible just how many people in crypto are confusing the triple halvening/cliffening which comes with the merge and EIP-1559. I have seen multiple YouTubers (and not the shitty bybit link shilling, shitcoin pumping kind) and many people on Reddit thinking that the cliffening is happening in the next month with EIP-1559. The amount of misinformation is frustrating. People are going to look at EIP-1559's respectable change to ETH supply (but not dramatic like the merge) and claim &qu…

The road to general-purpose AI cannot be accomplished via text alone

Mykola Rabchevsky, in his short post, does a fine job of describing why to accomplish anything close to human level intelligence and communication, text must be grounded.

On the dark night of March 13, 1781, William Herschel settled down in his garden observatory in Bath, England, for a routine night of observing stars, when he noticed something out of place in the heavens. Through the eyepiece of his homemade 7-foot telescope, he spied an interloper in the constellation Gemini: “a curious, either nebulous star or perhaps a comet,” as he recorded it. For weeks, he stalked the unknown object, monitoring its steady appearance and circular path around the sun until there could …

Making approximately exchangeable data from non-exchangeable observations

In short, I've been tasked with creating an anomaly detection system for traders (essentially attempting to answer "Is this trade anomalous for this trader?"). This is tricky, mostly because traders may be exchangeable but trades are not. A model which ignores trader (a completely pooled model, in mixed model terms) ignores the variation between traders and would ostensibly alert on trades which are anomalous as compared to the nominal trade. That's bad because there may just be aggressiv…

The use of "AI" (a.k.a. computer consciousness) to moderate websites

I know this sounds like it could go the big brother route but I mean it in a totally benevolent way wherein Computer Consciousness is used to moderate websites to, say, remove spam, reposts, and other things not deemed beneficial to the site or the community that uses it. I don't mean like reddit's automods; this AI would generally work autonomously, with the skill and understanding of communties and content that humans are capable of. It would sort through posts and use "advanced discretion …

Be aware of burned supply coins

I’ve seen there is a bit of confusion on understanding why coins that are just deployed burn 50% or 99% of their supply. Some people say to increase scarcity. Sadly not, if they wanted a scarce coin they would have deployed it already with a low supply, so the answer is another: To hide their whales. If i deploy a coin on BSC with 100m supply and burn 50% of it as soon as it’s deployed, and own 10m of it myself, my wallet will be listed as having 10% of the supply while i have actually 20% of it, since BSC…

Get data from “X” and show it on “Y”

Hello and happy 4th—>5th; I am wondering which mechanism makes the following happen. For example, website X collects a lot of data from businesses and shows that data to the business owners. I want to get that data with the permission from the owner, and show it on my website with a better UI/UX to the business owners. How can you legally do that? Does it always have to be through an API that website X provides? Some API Terms of Use agreements may limit that, so what happens in those situations? Tha…

No one seems to actually know what a smart contract is, yet are trying to explain them. Here's the actual explanation of what they are.

Smart contracts do not ensure payments went through, and they do not create decentralized casinos or banks. In fact, they offer no guarantees about decentralization whatsoever. They CAN be used for these things, but what they really are is much simpler. Smart contracts are immutable scripts that exist on the blockchain. They maintain a state (i.e. they store data) and they have functions that can be called. That's it. The only way to interact with a smart contract is to call one of its functions. The…

How do you store coding ethically when moving on to a new company?

Hi all. I may move on to a new employer and this is exciting! But I know my brain and I know my limitations. I don’t have a degree in computer science but have picked up Python and SQL very well and progressed in ways I’m quite proud of. I can forget things very easily when not using them regularly so, the easy but legally concerning way to solve this problem is to download all of my snippets and keep them in a private repository for reference only. But I see that’s not something I’d feel comfortable legal…

Google AI Introduces A Dataset for Studying Gender Bias in Machine Translation

Creating "patterns" is a good way to trick the retail investor out of their cash/crypto.

Humans are pattern-seeking animals. We are the best animal on earth at being able to identify patterns. This works both to our advantage and to our detriment.

For example, earlier this year DOGE pumped from 1 cent to 8 cents on a tweet from Elon Musk on the subject. Let's say that I'm a friend of Elon and I ask him to tweet about DOGE at a specific time.

In one of the first lines of the first post by Satoshi, he (she? they?) names one of their primary reasons for creating Bitcoin and starting the cryptocurrency space.

Hi there :) I might potentially get into a new working project involving NLP in a few months, so I'm seeking to learn NLP in advance. I use Python so resources in Python would be great.

You hear a lot of a certain breed of maxi being very dismissive of smart contracts. It's the 2004 equivalent of saying, "okay, but so what? I can play a glorified version of 'snake' on an iPhone. Nokia still has market dominance." The full picture of what it means to make a blockchain a turing-complete computer is beyond all our imaginations. It's not a single feature.

Stellar Lumens are awesome, and almost too useful. Great for circumventing fund transfer delays on exchanges.

Hello fellow crypto zealots. I have a personal observation on XLM. It is so useful for moving money between exchanges and wallets that I have a lot of trouble holding it. I first bought into XLM at around 10 cents, but was never able to hold it for long. It’s so fast and cheap to move it. For example, I use Coinbase pro to purchase assets and there is a waiting period from the time I deposit my fiat, to the time I can move my new assets to my wallet.

On the other hand, reconstructions that are well suited for edits tend to have a significant identity gap with the person on the target photo. Daniel Roich and his colleagues from Tel Aviv University propose a simpl…

Hi everyone. A few months ago I posted how I made a set of forms to provide your spouse or loved one specific instructions to access your accounts if something happened to you.

I've created a website and an Etsy shop with downloadable PDFs where you fill out …

Is it still ok to invest in Bitcoin when I'll never ever in my life hope to hit 1 BTC?

Hi. I'm a fairly new investor. Had my first coin in March, before everything went down. Ever since then, I've learned a lot (still not enough I think) to trade safely and invest in the right coins. Now, everytime I go to this sub, or listen to people who talk about Crypto, they always talk about how big Bitcoin is, and I should only spare a few dollars on alts, and focus majority on my money on BTC, ladder in, and so on and so forth. Truth be told, I'm from a third world country, I barely ma…

Hey guys quick question, after running my PCA, my first PC only has a variance percent of 2.5% and in order to reach 80% I am going to need 142 PCs. Usually we would expect a variance much greater than 2.5%. This just makes the PCA useless. Do I need to take a look at my previous steps?

Math in Data Science

I've been reading about entry-level jobs in data science and have mixed feelings about the amount of math required to be successful in the field.

So, my question to working data scientists: what amount of math/stats are you actually using at your job? My assumption was that DS is 90% data gathering/cleaning and 10% actual modeling. I …

Even if my coins lose half their value, I'm still better off than before simply because I'm avoiding spending money on stupid crap in order to save it for crypto.

I never really used to think about money or saving that much until this past year when I got into stocks and then later into crypto. Now every time I think about spending money on something stupid like takeaway or buying drink after drink at the bar, I am thinking about the crypto I could buy with that money instead and potential gains. I reckon just from being more aware of spending and saving I would have saved thousands, even if all my coins end up tanking I still think I would be better off now than if …

This sub loves Algorand and I'm starting to question all my crypto life choices now

My altcoins are mainly ADA, UNI, LINK, DOT and VET. The amount of Algorand love here though has me wondering if it's not a project I've overlooked and this could be early days with a lot more growth to come. What are the specific Algorand features or potential upsides that make it unique? I know you're not my real Crypto Dad but can you an argument for Algorand versus the alts I'm into already?

I finally found a way of regularly buying crypto without pissing off my wife

So our kids are terrible with money just like me. They get a weekly allowance in cash and they never know where it is, or they “find” some coins so suddenly one has more than the other. They both have phones so I setup a Nano wallet for them, and now they get Nano every week instead of cash. So whenever they want to buy something they send me the Nano for it and I purchase it for them with my visa card. And they always know how much they have. So every month I buy enough for the weekly allowance and aft…

I guess it needs to be said: You should assume ANYONE talking about crypto is paid to do so.

Based off of this thread here from earlier today. There is legitimately no way of knowing if someone is pushing crypto for personal gain. They may be a shill for a big bank/scamcoin. They may have a lot of the coin and are pushing a pump and dump. It doesn't matter though.   ANY Youtuber, frequent Reddit poster, influencer, etc... should be doubted first. They may be speaking truthfully and they may not have an ulterior motive. They really may not be shilling a coin at all... But you need to e…

The team is inspired by a formal equivalence between today’s linear transformers and 1990s fast weight programmers (FWPs), and so has proposed recurrent FWPs, i.e., RFWPs. It is a new approach that can perform better than linear and regular transformers on executi…

Hi everyone!

I just landed my first client for my data science side hustle

I haven’t been happy at my current job (actuarial work), and with the bad economy I really struggled to find work elsewhere. This gave me all the motivation I needed to try start my own thing and become my own boss. First I looked for a mentor: a data scientist who I look up to. They provided me with valuable guidance, helped me set goals, and we worked together on a few projects over several months. They gave me an idea of the kind of projects I can go out and do on my own. Afterwards I started going wi…

Average number of times a program is used?

Does anybody have any data (or even anecdote) about the average number of times data analytics programs are used before being discarded? Surely, some programs may be run again and again but others may be used only a small number of times during exploration and then discarded. I'm a programming systems researcher and we're trying to get some sense of total time-to-solution and how much slower some solution could be (compared to C/MPI) for a single run and still be lower time-to-solution because the p…

Suppose you create a regression model that predicts the hourly salary based on age and height. Suppose you have some new age and height measurements for 5 new people. The regression model predicts the salary of these 5 new people, e.g. $20/hr, $15/hr, $0/hr, $40/hr, $100/hr.

Precognition

Published on June 14, 2021 12:38 AM GMT It’s almost impossible to predict the future. But it’s also unnecessary, because most people are living in the past. All you have to do is see the present before everyone else does. To be less pithy, but more clear: Most people are slow to notice and accept change. If you can just be faster than most people at seeing what’s going on, updating your model of the world, and reacting accordingly, it’s almost as good as seeing the future. We see this in the US with covid:…

If we do hold the Burgandy trend line, we could rocket past the 37k mark and overcome the asymmetric volatility, just like we saw at the end of …

Transaction Data Matching

Hello All! I have a question regarding transaction matching algorithms. I received a data-set and the records consist of one side of a two sided trade. The goal is to match each trade record with its correct counter-party based on a few categorical and continuous fields. This is mostly a cold-start problem as no training set is provided. A small number (~10%) of trades can be matched-up just based on the counter-parties only having one transaction between each other. Any ideas on what would be the be…

Once I have the first draft ready I'll share it o…

The BBC and crypto FUD

Although it's not perfect, the BBC is generally more reliable than most big media outlets, but over the past few years I've been sorely disappointed in its coverage of crypto (focused 99% on BTC). Today was a pretty good example. They ran this story with the headline: Binance: Financial watchdog FCA bans crypto-currency exchange It's a pretty startling piece of news to read first thing in the morning, and a bit surprising too. The first line goes: Binance, the world's biggest cr…

If you're young and thinking of investing in crypto, please take a second to read this.

I'm sure this will sound pedantic but with all the excitement lately, I'm seeing a lot of posts from people in their 20's and even teens talking about investing large sums in crypto. Please keep in mind that this is a high risk. That's not to say you shouldn't take some of your hard-earned money, do your research and get involved. This community is amazing, dynamic and there's a ton of potential to make great returns. However, high-risk investments should never be your whole portfol…

Despite the lack of energy reserves that led to power outages for several days last winter, Texas has one of the lowest energy prices in the world, and its…

How should I go about on learning data science

I recently graduated on Economics, so I have a solid foundation of Statistics. I have also studied JS for a few months, and when I was ready to pick a framework, I decided to get closer to data science, using Python.

I'd like to do social science research. Which is better, R, python or any other statistical programming?

I would like to write about sociological topics mostly but have a political, philosophical, psychological nature. I even want to talk about borders, nature, evolution and such.

Is this a meaningful way to model "hierarchical data"?

Suppose you have "postal codes" and you want to use them as a variable in your data.

If two postal codes only share the first character, then they are probably pretty dissimilar. And if they share the first 3 characters, then they are expected to be somewhat similar to each other.

Shorts on bitcoin just increased 1000% to 24,178 (one contract is 5 BTC) for a total of almost $4 billion in shorts in a few hours.

According to datamish.com, you can visually see the price impact as shorts are piled on, making up nearly 35% of total positions, and you can see how the price stabilizes when these positions stop increasing. I don't know if there's some sort of huge expiry happening near the end of the month today, but it looks like the price is being manipulated to stave off losses for existing shorts or cause max pain to some of the longs with greater weight. Might be a good time to buy a chunk of BTC if you&#…

What would you cover, given this chance? ​ So far what I thought to cover: What is Bitcoin, ethereum and another coin maybe Monero What the media says about bitcoin(some negative stories and quotes) vs what is real/true.

My opinion on why the whole El Salvador thing is shady.

So, after the new El Salvador announcement to drop 30$ do every adult on their (governement sanctioned) wallet, I started to wonder what the ulterior motive is. Yeah some may say "freedom from inflation, from USD, from the US manipulating the price" yadda yadda. That might all be true. But there's another, rather concerning point I'm seeing. Removing privacy. Bitcoin is transparent. That's one of the big selling points. And normally that's a good thing. But if your wallet is lin…

Not going to make the same mistake this time

In '17/'18 I was a broke college student investing petty cash in crypto. Well, when the crash hit I needed the money so I (stupidly) took what little I had out. Looking back, the several eth and fractions of btc I had could've been a well needed chunk of change today ( I need a new car, that $10k+ would really help 😅) So this time around, I REFUSE to make the same mistake. I'm investing ~$250 biweekly. Money I can afford to lose. I'm staking it and not looking back for at least a few y…

Now is the time to formulate a profit taking strategy. Not when everything goes parabolic. Here are some ideas.

When markets go parabolic you can't make rational decisions, the hype will distort your views of what's possible. You end up never taking profits and holding through a crash, and losing all your gains. Also, if a dip happens you'll be prone to panic selling and can miss out.

On the limits of idealized values

Published on June 22, 2021 2:10 AM GMT (Cross-posted from Hands and Cities) On a popular view about meta-ethics, what you should value is determined by what an idealized version of you would value. Call this view “idealizing subjectivism.”  Idealizing subjectivism has been something like my best-guess meta-ethics. And lots of people I know take it for granted. But I also feel nagged by various problems with it — in particular, problems related to (a) circularity, (b) indeterminacy, and (c) “passivity.…

After careful skimming of hundreds of comments, I have concluded that we are entering a bullbear market

I have done the unthinkable, and am now employing a new strategy that looks past all technical and fundamental analysis, DYOR, use cases and market analysis to exclusively tunnel vision on my feels and normal price fluctuations. I have carefully skimmed hundreds or possibly tens of reddit comments to aggregate the consensus of the average reddit user’s emotions into my conclusion: that we are both simultaneously in a bull market and a bear market. It is obvious really. When the price goes up by 2%, we a…

Just a quick reminder of why Bitcoin was invented in the first place. This used to be preaching to the choir. But these days all people care about is the price.

People used to pay each other in gold and silver. Difficult to transport. Difficult to divide. Paper money was invented. A claim to gold in a bank vault. Easier to transport and divide. Banks gave out more paper money than they had gold in the vault. They ran “fractional reserves”. A real money maker. But every now and then, banks collapsed because of runs on the bank. Central banking was invented. Central banks would be lenders of last resort. Runs on the bank were thus mitigated by banks guaranteeing e…

Spent the morning with a suicidal friend who bought near ATH, sold all his crypto at near perfect lows. This is the dark side of crypto. Fellas, let’s look out for each other. And FFS don’t risk more than you can afford to lose.

Buddy took out an equity on his home to buy BTC on the run up and was ecstatic for a bit when it hit the ATH. Sold some to later buy DOGE at .71 and ETH at $3900. Sold a few days ago. Called me up last night distressed as he saw BTC both go up. I’m kinda not sure how to handle this. Never had a suicidal friend before. I’m going to assume he’s serious. He’s mentally fucked right now, so we’re going to meet for drinks and lunch. For the record, I never tell my friends and family to get into crypto. &#…

Am I alone or are there HODLERS who just not give a damn about the market at the moment..and barely even look at how things are doing?

I feel confident in the coins I own and intend to just hold them, and will check my overall account balance 1x / day...see it's -$200 and close it and move on.

Found a Reddit thread from 2013, where people where paying 4.75 bitcoin for a year of Reddit gold.

Just thought this was a funny way of looking at how far bitcoin has come. I came across a reddit thread where people where offering ฿4.75 (roughly $161,108 as I type this), for someone to pay in FIAT for a year of Reddit gold for their account. I tracked the main guys wallet who was buying the Reddit gold in exchange for Bitcoin, and found that 17,760 bitcoins had travelled through his wallet. Today, this is worth $603,083,424 ($603 million). His wallet has been cleaned out now, so I wonder if he ended up …

I work in a Bank, they forbid us from buying crypto and even talking about it in social networks

Obviously I won't say the name of the bank but it's one of the biggest in Europe. Few months ago we got a communication saying we were forbidden to buy and trade cryptos because they're not regulated and we could easily get involved in criminal activities (lol). By the way, we must have no legal records, if we commit any crime, we get fired. To prevent this situation, the bank said they would automatically block our accounts from sending money to crypto exchanges. Officially, the bank statemen…

Understand the difference between buying the dip and chasing your losses.

This is a very grey area and prone to put people in positions they later regret. Buying low is great for obvious reasons especially if you're trying to DCA down after buying high but be careful you don't fall into a trap of thinking that everything that has crashed will come back up and especially up to where it was previously. This is not fud but just common sense for people who may get influenced by the hundreds of "oo look at me, I'm so cool I'm buying the dip posts". …

Omg Bitcoin 34k! New Bull Market!

Bitcoin hitting 34k doesn't mean anything right now. The media will try to say things like, "Bitcoin SURGES back!" Or "Bitcoin tests 29k and PASSES the test!" And my personal favorite "Bitcoin comes ROARING back!" Well, guess what? It all means nothing. Bitcoin needs to at least get back to 50k before anyone can mention bull market. Honestly, about 90% of media can be ignored. I don't want them scaring anybody when the market drops or giving them false hope when the m…

China has told banks and payments platforms to stop supporting digital currency transactions.

Banks were told to not provide products or services such as trading, clearing and settlement for cryptocurrency transactions. Authorities have ordered the closure of 26 mines last week.

The first 10 years of crypto feel like the first 10 years of the internet

For years after the TCP/IP protocalls were finalized in the early 80s, the internet was a wild place full of unrealized potential. You basically had to be some kind of nerd to fire up your home computer and connect to an IP address. It was very user unfriendly and confusing, but the potential for this internet thing to take off was always there and built up over the years. In the early 90's the world wide web was invented. And web browsers. America On Line. Then it was a mega boom that kept on booming …

There is a BIG benefit of this crash. Here is a tax loophole to save you tons of $$

This is one benefit of the market crash: you can save yourself a bunch of money through a perfectly legal tax loophole. All you need to do is create a capital loss. This means you sell crypto for a lower price than you bought it at. For example: If you bought one bitcoin at 60k, and you sell at 30k, you just locked in a capital loss of 30k. So why is this important? Because capital losses cancel out capital gains. Since the wash sale rule doesn't apply, you can instantly buy back your crypto and the l…

The Math of Living Things - Issue 102: Hidden Truths

It’s hard to argue with the famously authoritative Oxford English Dictionary, but its definition of physics as the “branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of non-living matter and energy” is incomplete because physics studies living things as well. Physicists reported biological research at their first international meeting in 1900, and physics and math still help biologists understand living things. In a striking reverse connection, in the 1940s Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger, fo…

Overclaim AI?

I am a newbie researcher in economics with AI focus. I have read several systematic review studies that looked into AI-driven tools from other papers. What made me confused is that there are so many systematic reviews that included the papers using technologies like e-health, telemedicine without claiming to embed any AI technology in such papers. I feel like the authors overclaimed or made heavy assumption of "AI" to get their papers noticed, or maybe I am wrong. Short question: Except for those…

We use this program called Anaplan which has a power bi API to get data... But the API of course is garbage and doesn't work if your organization uses single sign-on...

Enough with the posts about how awesome it is prices are down and how you wish they go down more.

Ya, I get it. Dips are buying opportunities. And bear markets present potentially great opportunities. And I know some of you mean it when you say you hope it keeps going down. But I don't think a huge continuous slide down is good for crypto long term. I'd rather not have prices drop 50% or 85% more. At whatever price you buy, up means profit. So, I am going to go against the trend and say I hope the market shoots up like crazy and doesn't go down further. I am ready for my downvotes now. 😆 …

Tether has over $60bn under their management and just 13 employees. That's a record, the previous record holder was Bernie Madoff's ponzi scheme with $50bn under management and 25 employees. Isn't this concerning given Tethers refusal to be audited?

Tether has just 13 listed employees on LinkedIn. Source There is just over $62bn Tether in existence, meaning Tether theoretically has $62bn under their control. Source That is over $5bn in assets per employee of Tether If that seems comically low it's because it is. It's a world record for total amount of money managed per employee. The only similarly small number of employees for such a large amount of money under management was Bernie Madoff's ponzi scheme which had $50bn under manageme…

Don't Underestimate the Power of Averaging Down (Especially when it's already down a lot)

Let's say you bought $100 worth of MATIC at $2. Then MATIC dropped to $1 and you bought $100 worth again. What's your average now? If you think it's $1.5, don't worry, you are not alone. I know 2 friends who said the same thing. You have a total of 50 + 100 = 150 MATIC. With a total investment of 200$, your average is 200/150 = $1.33 Now you only need to wait for it's price to go up 33% before breaking even. This is indeed a basic math. But there are some people who legitimately fa…

All PoW/PoS coins are screwed in the long term

Yes, a rather callous title, in the hopes that people will come in here to tell me why I'm wrong. See the bottom of this post for a TL;DR. My thesis is that cryptocurrencies relying either on PoW or PoS, cryptocurrencies with inflation, fees & staking, cryptocurrencies with block subsidies and reward schedules are all screwed in the long run. My reasoning for this is that cryptocurrencies using PoW, PoS, or anything like it, actively undermine their own goals by incentivizing centralization over tim…

If you bought BTC at $60k but aren't buying at $30k, you were "trading" on emotions and your plan is seriously flawed

It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. If you're a knowledgeable trader and can time the tops and bottoms with some degree of accuracy then this obviously doesn't apply to you. If you're in this for the long haul, the fundamentals haven't changed. There will still only ever be 21M BTC and in macro terms, it has historically only ever gone up. ETH is still a monumental leap in technology and going to start burning supply from July onwards when EIP-1559 is implemented in the L…

The China FUD to end all FUDs: Why today's Chinese crypto ban No 37 is extremely bullish long-term

During my almost 4 years in crypto, China and ban have been single two most frequently seen words in a sentence - no competition. With each ban there was naturally less and less effect on the actual market. But it looks like recently the Chinese went all out with their crypto ban hammer on all levels (so conveniently coinciding with the final stages of the Digital Yuan launch). For a long time, Chinese controlling Bitcoin and it's hashrate, was a leading FUD of the opponents of Bitcoin in general. Well…

This sideways trend has proven that sometimes technical analysis means absolutely nothing.

Ever since we hit 30k about a month ago TA people on twitter, reddit etc have been constantly talking about an imminent breakout either up or down, usually up, yet the market does its own thing and crabs sideways, something only a few people expected, most of whom used no TA to figure it out.

I was asked to analyze the F&B sales at the different locations in the park and compare this year's sales with last year's sales. Couple of constraints and issues: The number of outlets in an area keep changing every year. Last year we might have had 10…

Starting my masters in DS this fall, any advice on my first class?

After much thought, I have decided that getting a masters in data science is the correct career choice for me. I begin my studies this fall, and my first class is python for data analysis.

"Give a man a steak and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to stake he eats forever." - Georgeev

I cannot believe so many people I know are not staking their coins and if you are in for the longrun. Why wouldn't you be staking?! Staking is a form of passive income. You stake your coin and you shall receive some interest for staking it. Think of it as interest you get for putting your money in the bank, where the only difference is the interest in staking isn't as crappy as those nasty banks. The more you stake the more you take. Let's use ADA as an example. On the Binance exchange if you s…

Some general thoughts from someone who's been involved with crypto since 2010. I'm not reinventing the wheel with them, but someone may find one or two of them helpful.

Personally, I am to a point where I am treating the dip as an opportunity. Billionaires and banks own crypto. They have the financial means to not only wait out dips, but to continue to accumulate during them. I am in a position where I can afford to do the same, so I am. Also, everyone's financial, emotional and mental positions are different. If you've got too much skin in the game and need to sell, then you've gotta do what you've gotta do to get by.

Yeah, I know that sounds confusing, but hear me out: This is how I make extra money while I am at my job and invest that money into coins that make money. I work a job that pretty much requires me to just be there. Every once in a while I have to deal with a customer, but for the most part I’m just there on my phone making sure that people don’t steal and help customers out when I can. While I’m at work I usually participate in online surveys THAT PAY (prolific, Mturk, etc.). They don’t pay much, but I c…

Did you know that you can “take” a free class on Bitcoin at the world renowned M.I.T.?

There is a free semester of college level, Blockchain/Bitcoin knowledge available in a 20+ part, 1 hour YouTube classroom. It’s called “Blockchain and Money”. I won’t post the link, but enter “MIT OpenCourseWare Bitcoin” and you’ll find it. I’m on lesson 3 and it’s (surprisingly) not too advanced to understand and I’d recommend it for beginner, intermediate and advanced cryptocurrency enthusiasts. The class takes place in 2018, after the last market cycle peak and is still very relevant. It’s amazing you ca…

M: lmfao C: Don't laugh at me M: If Shiba hit a penny it would be worth all the money currently in circulation (I hadn't done the math yet, until a couple of seconds later) M: It's not that extreme but to hit 0.01, its market cap would be $3,900,000,000,000 which is currently nearly 6x higher than Bitcoin…

I Have a Friend Who's the Most Financially Responsible Person I know. He entered the crypto market in 2017 at the ATH. Here's how it went.

Quick story. He's the most responsible person I've ever known. The type of person that stays at a job for a very long time. He's every employers dream, he will be there until the company goes out of business. You can always count on him. Hes never taken out loans for a car. He saves until he can buy one straight out. He tells me he never wants to deal with the burden of constantly owing money. He even bought his house in full. Seriously. He saved his money for 15 years and held it in an inte…

While sideways in a bear market, it's important to remember 2008 and why the heck crypto is so very important

At times like these - it's important to revisit why this all started, and why it's still so vital. Bitcoin was born as a reaction to the 2008 financial crisis - looking back in brief, remember that: Banks and brokers were giving out cheap, subprime mortgage loans to people they knew would be unable to afford them, fuelling a housing bubble these loans were sold to and then packaged up by Wall Street as financial investments such as mortgage backed securities This became a market in itself, wi…

If you have trouble imagining a 50% loss in the crypto market, you shouldn’t be in crypto.

As harsh as it may sound, it’s true. You have to accept the fact that fiat value of your portfolio is constantly changing. It can go XY% up or down on a daily basis. Sounds pretty obvious right? Well guess what. Some people are still not able to deal with this. That’s why they’re panicking and checking the prices every 5 minutes. It messes with your head.

What is Autoencoders

Autoencoders is a kind of neural network where the yield layer has a similar dimensionality as the info layer. In less complex words, the quantity of yield units in the yield layer is equivalent to the number of info units in the information layer. An autoencoder reproduces the information from the contribution to the yield in an unaided way and is hence here and there alluded to as a replicator neural network.

Not really a big fan of Warren Buffett, but I think this quote describes perfectly how wealth is accumulated....and it's why everyone is here. No offense to the traders here, but the goal isn't to be sitting in front of screens making the right timing decisions...it's to be letting assets you own accumulate. So congrats for being here and starting on that path... submitted by /u/ClaustrophobicShop [link] [comments]

Friendly reminder to backup your 2FA

First of all, if you're still using 2FA through SMS, you really should consider switching to an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator or Authy. This is a significantly safer option than receiving 2FA codes via SMS. Once you've done that, save yourself a potentially MASSIVE headache in the future and backup your 2FA. Ask anyone who has lost their primary device how much of a pain in the ass it was to get their access back to all their crypto accounts and you'll realize why. Most authent…

Ethereum Max is a scam using celebrity shills.

Just over a month ago a random token was created on Ethereum, Ethereum Max. It's just an ERC-20 token with HODLing rewards and other forms of perks I couldn't find, because they lack a whitepaper. Nothing about this coin is interesting or special, maybe even more useless than the average memecoin. Team is also anonymous, they're not listed anywhere. Paid promotion. This is where it gets interesting, the team managed to place advertisements on Instagrams of celebrities. One of the people was Ki…

Tip: Practice "losing" your phone.

You have wallets or currency on exchanges. You wrote out some strings of words and have your passwords saved somewhere safe, two factor set up everywhere possible. Life is good. You're sure that if you lost you phone or if someone broke into your house and stole your computers, no one else could access your accounts and wallets. But could you?

Why you get downvoted

OK, obviously I can’t tell you why YOU are getting downvoted, but possibly my personal data will provide general insight. There seems to be renewed concern about downvoting, based on recent posts. We all know (or think, anyway) that Moon Greed has caused an escalation in downvotes. I feel like something of an expert in downvotes, because I get a ton of them. I suspect it’s because I don’t care much about Moons, and don’t temper my comments if I have something unpopular to say. Anyway, just for fun I did a…

TITAN was at $60 two days ago, now it's at $0.00000003. Here's why you shouldn't YOLO in (and yes it's market cap)

TITAN's crash was really absurd, I personally haven't seen anything this extreme yet. It crashed almost 100% in a few hours and now sits at 0.00000005% of its ATH. That's something. I've seen many people in the past two days ask stuff like: "sure, it won't recover from that. But what if I just invest like $10, if it goes back to even just one cent, a tiny fraction of the ATH, that would be a ton of money!" And yes, it absolutely would be! And that alone should be enough to tel…

Hands up if you hate the tribalism culture in crypto - let’s debate the common downsides to some of the top crypto and talk about why they MAY not be huge issues

I want to promote a healthy discussion where everything isn’t 100% the best or 0% the worst. So I’ll kick off with Bitcoin - the common knock on it is that there is “no utility” and “environment impact is poor” etc etc. (I am not a Bitcoin investor FYI) but my rebuttal to that would be: a store of value is utility in and of itself. If there’s a critical mass of holders at a certain value on a finite resource (as there is with gold for instance) whilst there may be short term price volatility the lack o…

It also suggested a small modification in the BERT architecture which allowed BERT to scale effectively to parameter sizes that did not perform well on before. I will fo…

IBM Releases UQ360 AI tool, An Open Source Tool To Measure Model Uncertainty

Deep learning-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have a history of generating overconfident predictions, even when they are inaccurate, which can have significant repercussions.

Is the Universe Open-Ended? - Issue 102: Hidden Truths

One of my favorite albeit heavily paraphrased quotes from Albert Einstein is his assertion that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible. (What he actually said, in his 1936 work “Physics and Reality,” is more longwinded, and includes a digression into Immanuel Kant and the meaning of “comprehensibility”, but he does write “... the eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility.”) In truth, this statement holds back a little.

I have been trying to make a career pivot. I don't really enjoy the work I'm doing, and I've served in the same niche engineering role for the past 4 years. When I apply to other pharmaceutical companies…

What do people actually end up doing in this field?

Hello, Sorry if this is a weird question. I’m entering my senior year of college as an Econ/stats major and I’m really curious as to what skills I’m learning at school will actually be used in real life. I work a lot with excel, R and Stata doing summary statistics, linear regressions and transformations. Does that basically sum up this field? I got some free time this summer and was thinking of trying to learn the basics of python. Is there any crucial skills that you guys wished you would have worked on …

Choosing a combined title? E.g. Data Scientist & Engineer

If given some say in setting a job title, for someone who does both (and will be expected to do both in the role), would you go for a merged title like "Data Scientist & Engineer", or just pick one? Context: data scientist roles are already on the resume, so goal is to highlight the additional skill/responsibility, if appropriate. submitted by /u/le_sacre [link] [comments]

Ramping Up Help from Coworkers

I've started a new job as a Sr. Data Analyst. I am ramping up and am about a month into the position. Ramping up in the pandemic is a different experience than when I ramped up in a precious role in the office (obviously). The most notable part is knowing when to reach out to others and seek out that sort of 'whiteboard' session. I feel that I am missing that now and don't have a great feel for my team.

Does knowing R instead of Python makes you unhireable?

Hello! Sorry for another R, Python post. Recently I got a task at work in which I had to read through multiple sheets of excel, clean, transform, reshape it and make it into a single dataframe. I hadn't done this type of task in either R or Python. Since, it was not really a time constraint task, I decided to do it in both and learn how to do it in both languages. I am better with R than Python. I barely know Python actually. So I started doing it in R and comfortably (with google) did it without tak…

Is it worth taking a lower tier DS internship after mid tier SWE internship if I’m interested in DS?

I’m a rising senior currently interning at a decent company as swe, but I recently got offered a fall internship at a lower tier company in data science. I’m really interested in data science and haven’t really been exposed to it, but I’m worried this will look like a step down resume wise. The pay for the ds role is about half as much as my current swe role too for context. If I took the ds role, I would have less time on school as well since it’s in the fall.

How does one become a better communicator?

Hi all, As the title suggests, off late, I have been struggling to communicate with non-technical stakeholders efficiently. For example, there was this one time where one of the stakeholders asked me to explain what a model did and I ended up combining a few technical terms together in a sentence which ended up confusing the stakeholder even more. It is not that I suck at communicating in general. If I were to have a conversation regarding a simple analysis/explaining some viz, I do it pretty well. But, w…

Let's imagine that determining if patients have this disease is time consuming and costly - so a machine learning approach is being considered. Let's assume that this disease is very rare.

Karma Needed To Earn A Dollar (June 2021)

Ever wonder how much karma was needed to earn $1 since r/CryptoCurrency moons have begun trading? Well wonder no more. To find out, I took the monthly karma to moon (K/M) ratio and multiplied it by the trading price on that date. https://preview.redd.it/ijxp78rqke571.png?width=275&format=png&auto=webp&s=1391dd66b81716c691ed85729aef9303945389f4 So there we have it, to earn $1 you need to receive 69 (nice...) karma.

There is a possibility for identifying relevant groups only through cluster analysis, but I think that a) those cases are…

Perhaps surprisingly a simple multilayer perceptron (MLP) with a couple of clever tricks does just as good (if not better) as specialized convolutional architectures (StyleGAN-2) on 256x256 resolution.

Using Jupyter Notebook vs something else?

Noob here. I have very basic skills in Python using PyCharm. I just picked up Python for Data Science for Dummies - was in the library (yeah, open for in-person browsing!) and it looked interesting. In this book, the author uses Jupyter Notebook. Before I go and install another program and head down the path of learning it, I'm wondering if this is the right tool to be using. My goals: Well, I guess I'd just like to expand my knowledge of Python. I don't use it for work or anything, yet... …

In these graphs, is a value of "1" supposed to indicate "very high risk that a patient develops covid-19 symptoms"? So basically, these graphs are showing the day-by-d…

Is it common to feel like you have no idea what you're doing in an internship?

I'm a senior at university and I got a pretty nice internship somehow. I keep getting assigned work with nlp stuff that I don't know how to do. I read the theory behind it some time ago and I watch youtube videos, but I haven't had the opportunity to practice yet. Is this feeling of not knowing what you're doing normal? I've mainly worked with basic machine learning in the past, not much deep learning. ​ EDIT: Thanks for all the responses guys. I had some anxiety coming in this …

top scoring links : CryptoCurrency

People FUD a lot about the Fed "printing money" but the M2 money supply has grown far less than the entire crypto space and is typically similar to the rate at which Eth is mined. Stay rational with your investments and don't solely listen to pro-crypto arguments.

Probably not a popular sentiment here but I'm trying to bring some rationality to the conversation. In the past year, the M2 money supply (which isn't even really quite all the USD there is) has gone from just under $18T to just over $20T. $2.3T has been "printed" in the past 12 months. It's a 12.8% increase. But around 8M new Eth are created each year. There was a supply of about 108M a year ago. That's a 7.4% increase but that remains pretty constant when the USD rate is typica…

Weird fact: Only 2% of users in r/cryptocurrency have set up their moon vaults!

Today, I learnt that only ~60,000 users in our subreddit have moon vaults active. That's only 2% adoption rate based on the 3 million users in our subreddit. This is quite surprising since it's a subreddit based on cryptocurrency and it's opportunities. It's free cryptocurrency that can actually change your life. One may even call it a low cap gem. Why miss out? Go and set up your vaults! submitted by /u/ultron290196 [link] [comments]

What is "Einsum" equation ?

It’ an elegant way to perform matrix or vector manipulation. I find it’s extremely useful if I have to perform matrix multiplication of matrices which is of higher dimension, it gives a great flexibility to sum and multiply among certain axis. Ex : if you have to multiply matrix A of shape (1,200,2,32) & matrix B of shape (2,32,32) and results in a matrix C of shape (1,200,32). This can be implemented as follows: np.einsum(‘abcd,cde->abe’,A,B) That’s it ! https://rakshithv.medium.com/einsum-eq…

In some Chinese social media groups, a discussion is raging on the real meaning of AI after some hilarious AI failures (and funny pics) CONTEXT: AI in Chinese is four characters: 人工智能.

[P] Paper Explained: VQGAN - Taming Transformers for High-Resolution Image Synthesis

It is a lucrative idea to combine the effectiveness of the inductive bias of CNNs with the expressiveness of transformers, yet only recently such an approach was proven to be not only possible but extremely powerful as well. I am of course talking about "Taming Transformers" - a paper from 2020 that proposes a novel generator architecture where a CNN learns a context-rich vocabulary of discrete codes and a transformer learns to model their composition as high-resolution images in both conditional …
