Hey! Grattis! Really happy for the success of my fellow Stockholmare! Can I ask how do you integrate with your customer's online stores? I've always puzzled how third party recommender services integrate with someone's existing shop. Is there some sort of JS widget or similar you add to the customer's existing site?

Can you tell a bit more about your startup? I'm really interested in what people are doing in these nontrivial fields. Let me know if email is better.

Thank you! I will give that a read!

I'm also super interested in visual search - so it might be cool to add a kind of visual search engine to your site where you could upload a pic and it would search your collection for a similar outfit.

This is really cool! I'd love to see this become mainstream with second-hand and slow fashion communities :) Like where people could remix looks and then publish them, a bit like polyvore was once a long time ago.

Hey! It was actually the PyCon 2015 keynote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zg6SdUF-BaM

There is a rather famous blogpost by Bret Victor on this topic http://worrydream.com/ClimateChange/

Cool! Thanks for replying!

I'm really curious about your career change (since I'm thinking of the same!) - if it's not too personal, could you please elaborate a bit more?

Can I ask what kind of content you post on LinkedIn? Is it articles or links to videos or just posts?

What a co-incidence, just saw a Shnap ad on reddit. I'm really into visual search applications, so I'd love to take a look.

I've really enjoyed your writing! Including your past pieces on success and achievement and how obsessed we've become with both.

Could you please share a bit more about the environmental focus of your tech (non-profit) company? Really interested in tech with environmental applications, hence curious about your story!

how do you find the hours in law compared with working hours in tech?

Thanks for sharing your story! I work on the machine learning side of things and have recently become very interested in the intersection of machine learning and law - for ex. disputing decisions made by algorithms, usage of machine learning in sentencing etc. How did you find going back to law school after tech?

Wow what a career change! Congrats and thank you for sharing your story!

This demo is prob the coolest application of VR/AR I've seen in a while!

Haven't been following this too closely, but can I ask why? Is this because of some new tax rules implemented by HMRC?

I recently moved to Stockholm and have lived here for over a year. Finding housing that wasn't astronomically expensive (in relation to the salary level) was really, really tough.

Can I ask what your startup does? (also located in Sweden, so curious about the kinds of companies started here)

Can I ask why you are not interested in the field anymore? It seems to be having a major, major renaissance at the moment.

So much this: "Build it, and they will do absolutely nothing" Experienced this personally a few times in the last year.

I built a colour search engine for lipcolour products that's had a fairly good response from the beauty community!

* Making money with affiliate models in this space can be hard if you don't already have a big existing audience (ie. from a Youtube channel) - wrote a bit about it here

Threw myself head first into 80+ hour weeks of work, career climbing etc to avoid dealing with issues (incl. some trauma) I had since childhood. Told myself I'd be "married to my work", because while people leave you, money lasts longer. Gained some modest success, but woke up after 5+ years to the realisation that no matter how much I worked, none of the success, money or appreciation from peers would ever feel whatever void/emotional avoidance I had inside and was trying to mask by marrying myself to my work. By this time, I had a severe eating disorder and probably some sort of severe burnout.

Boy, did I learn this the hard way.

No, this paper by Papernot et al shows how to do blackbox attacks without knowledge of model internals. https://arxiv.org/abs/1602.02697

Anecdata: I grew up in Finland. It's common if you're 15-16 and in middle school, but I've rarely heard adults swear in the workplace or in public (unless inebriated).

If Linus wants to use perkele management, then I guess it's his project. Doesn't mean it's the right way to do things.

Something to aspire to then! :)

Agreed, it is a reasonable amount, but how many London companies outside of finance/trading have you seen advertise 80k-100k? The most common numbers I see is 45-65k.

Could you add the salary range for this position please?
