Hey there
Whats up! what are you upto on this exciting friday night?
I'm reading a thrilling chapter for a homework assignment! What are you doing this exciting Friday night?
waiting for my Movie recommender algorithm to finish up its been going for the last hour. haha whats the homework for?
What? You have an algorithm for that? Is it usually accurate? It's for a debate I have in class on Monday
Yes its for a machine learning class. its fairly accurate. the algorithm i'm using is a big part of how Netflix and other companies recommend you items. nice what is the debate over?
School Ooh, I'm very interested, but the algorithm takes an hour to run? Sorry- my debate is on school and whether public, private, or charter is best
the Big O is N^N and I have a data-set of 10,000 so it takes a while.
Ah. Exponential = Looong time
which are you for?
I'm assigned charter
Yes! especially with a data-set of 10,000 so in your honest opinion is charter better?
I haven't gotten there yet. But based off of my information I have before, I'm thinking charter schools kinda ruin the system. It's great but only for a small group of kids
hmmm why so? is it because they cost more and are strict?
Uhm, from what I understand charter schools are still part of the public schools. So they basically take away the same amount of money as a regular public school, but have sma smaller numbers. Essentially they take a bigger piece of the pie without contributing as much work.
I can see the issue there. Plus from my understanding of charters they aren't as regulated as normal schools so they may not be the best for that reason. but my school district did have quite a few magnet schools and they all did stellar
Very cool! Yeah I'll learn more about it between now and Monday, but I still have some time
good luck! hope you win that debate
Thanks, has your algorithm finished yet?
haha! No .. I think it might have slowed down. Because i'm using my CPU for other things
Ah. Makes sense, how much longer do you think it has?
I don't know it should speed up but could take a few more hours. have you seen "A quiet place" that movies the bomb!
YES I just saw A Quiet Place last night
I saw it the night it came out! An ASL friend of mine dragged me to it
Did you like it?
I loved it! didn't know how exactly I felt the first 5 min in but it got better the farther the movie got. did you like it?
I thought it was great! I missed the first minute... haha
oh ... did you not see the son die then?
I did. I got there when they were in the store and getting the prescription.
okay you didn't miss anything then
So I don't think I missed anything too important. But yeah, the son's death just surprised me, because the trailer alludes to it, but you're like Oh he'll save his son. THEN BOOM NOPE
yeah! I didn't expect to start off like that but definitely set the tone for the whole film nice chatting with you! going to play some game now
