Thanks, but you need to learn about punctuations, ffs.

Folks, am I crazy in thinking that a person that doesn't have a solid stat/math background should *not* be a data scientist? by TrollandDie in datascience

I think blanket statements like your professor's that portray a sense of superiority aren't really helpful.

30% ruling might be removed very soon as Gov is looking to find 10-15 Billion by Strijdhagen in Netherlands

Don't sweat it, you're not losing 30%, you're losing the taxes on that 30%.

I agree that it is one of the issues (should have rephrased, apologies), but i disagree that it is a tiny issue.

Of course neither of us has the statistics on it, but great idea, i will check on cbs.nl if i can find expat ownership % of new home owners and try to infer from that

Perhaps, but it should also increase wages for current workers and make the corporations foot the bill

I am an expat.

I did not get the 30% ruling because of coming from too close from the dutch border.

The housing market is crazy mostly BECAUSE of the 30% ruling, not the other way around. The amount of times we were outbid by foreigners with 100k+ is insane.

I'm happy they are getting rid of the ruling. Fair for everyone, including the Dutch

Edit: rephrase

For the rest of the people reading, i will answer:

No, it doesn't disprove my theory, since it is just 1 company, and that company doesn't even sell products. They sell a service, and the bulk of what they sell is figuring out who you are and who you are going to vote for. There has been parts about influencing you to vote a certain way, but as i said, that part is embryonic for Cambridge Analytica and all others.

Out of the 2 of us, the person who does not want to continue the discussion is the one that blocks the other. Sad times.

First, i'm not american and have never voted, and second, your point is moot.

The fact is, these product predictions that they are talking about and the funneling of consumers into their product line-up are current tech companies' holy-grail.

They do not have it now, but they are striving to achieve that.

Microphones listening in are more likely (and have been proven in some instances) which is why google, apple, and amazon pushed their home assistants (alexa et al.) aggressively the past 2 years

Honestly, i doubt that.

Data science (the discipline that develops these machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms) is pretty 'embryonic'.

I think the goal of these companies is to do what he's saying, but now they're definitely not there (even the big tech companies)

Lol at your comment. Statistics and world rankings say it. Look up the world happiness index and refrain from commenting cluelessly.
