    Linked: Clearview’s Facial Recognition App Has Been Used By The Justice Department, ICE, Macy’s, Walmart, And The NBA

    ByMike McBride February 28, 2020February 28, 2020 Reading Time: 1 minute

    Contrary to their claims, it seems like the company is willing to let anyone use their facial recognition search tool, and they seem unable to keep their own data safe. That’s not a good look. Read the whole thing, and prepare to be shocked, shocked I tell you, that a company willing to grab millions,…

    Linked: Brave browser and Internet Archive team up to revive dead pages

    ByMike McBride February 28, 2020February 28, 2020 Reading Time: 1 minute

    This is actually pretty cool. “The web browser, Brave, now has a feature that revives dead web pages with the help of Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine which stores snapshots of billions of web pages. As time goes on, more and more pages go offline and can cause a bit of a headache for those who…

    Will Big Data Give Us a Whole Bunch of Questionable Correlations?

    ByMike McBride February 26, 2020March 6, 2020 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    I think, statistically speaking, there’s no way that it won’t. I’m listening to a recent episode of Seth Godin’s podcast entitled Sample Size http://aca.st/0d21e1. Go listen to it, really. What struck me from some of the examples that he gave, especially when talking about the football prediction sites, is that as we collect more and…

    Linked: American Express Did Not Send This Email

    ByMike McBride February 24, 2020February 24, 2020 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Rick does a good job of describing how he can look at this email and determine that it’s a scam, but maybe this is the easiest one: “Finally, if AmEx is going to give me a credit, they will just credit the account, and explain the credit on the account page. There are other clues;…

    Why We Can’t Expect Facebook to Fact Check Our Feeds

    ByMike McBride February 20, 2020February 20, 2020 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    I’ve held this opinion for awhile, that no matter what Facebook does, there’s no way it’s going to be able to deal with the scope of fake news, harassment, etc. that rolls through their platform every day. (Or any other social media company.) Anything they do simply won’t scale. Let’s take fact-checking, for example: What…
