Something about me and the project I run: I am a theoretical physicist running a data-based company. Some time ago we started a new project called (right now at least) PeerSolver.

Might be helpful to tell something about me and the venture: I am a theoretical physicist running a ground-breaking data company (actually groundbreaking). Some time ago we started a new project called (right now at least) PeerSolver. It is focused on problem-solving in business, especially in startups. We are going to soon release an evolution of this project (entry to which will be limited, but for now everyone... Source: about 2 years ago

Something about me: A theoretical physicist that does business, loves design and simplicity. Running a company that gathers exceptionals with the goal of changing the way we see data and run endeavors. Currently focusing on PeerSolver and solving startuppers' problems. Soon to release an evolution of this project, partially free, that will put a new light on problem-solving. Source: about 2 years ago

Try taste.io, you cannot find users, but it will suggest you movies that people with similar tastes liked. Source: almost 2 years ago

On a social website (taste.io) I read a comment complaining about ‘bi- and homophobia sprinkled throughout [Elementary]’. The site doesn’t allow to react to comments so I couldn’t ask the person, but their comment got me thinking and I would like to hear people’s opinion: Do you think the show has some problematic moments in regards to lgbt+ representation and if yes, can you provide concrete examples?

It's John from taste.io, I think it depends on the method you want to use and where you're able to retrieve data to train the model. With a short amount of time and limited resources, you won't have the luxury of creating a collaborative filtering model....content-filtering is possible if you can also be resourceful with APIs + build crawlers. But, the results might be mediocre...meaning, the recommendations... Source: almost 3 years ago

I have been asked to build a recommender system for TV shows at large scale, meaning thousands of users across the entire libraries of services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime. Something like taste.io but completely focussed on TV shows and not movies. My main concern is the complexity of this project, I have read up on recommender systems, and they seem fairly straightforward, its the scale that scares me. Source: almost 3 years ago
