God fucking damnit. With that amount of knowledge and detail, I hope you end when you are comfortable to be, and accepted as well.

This situations seem so fucking ridicolous to me. Any country would be fortunate to have someone like you.

keont··on What I Learned Burning $14k on YouTube Ads for Candy Japan
For someone just starting in this world, any orientation or advice in how to improve with facebook ads or this world in general? I am following tutorials and forming more formally but 3 to 5 ROI would be huge for me professionaly, since we deal with not so big companies that would have, in the best of scenarios, a budget similar to the post, normally even smaller.

So it feels quite hard to stablish a relationship between the money spent and what we directly get the client in return.

So your comment was extremely useful for me!!

θ∗,ψ∗←argminθ,ψg(θ,ψ)

With no prior explanation and say, yep, now that you put it that way, it's true?

keont··on UK spies using social media data for mass surveillance
Thing is, if they make a profile about you that includes race, religion, and sexuality, what is stopping them from denying a certain group of people a job in the public sector? Or to use it as basis to spy on you because "this type of profile tends to be violent/terrorist/communist/not patriotic enough".

Or to not give you social aid since you aren't the right type of profile.

That link is frightening. Even though I think about this often, watching it in action is scary. Is there any similar tool for twitter?
keont··on Data Structure Visualizations
Thanks a lot for this, I feel like having a visual tool to learn/teach this kind of stuff is never a bad thing.
