I am not buying a second laptop just like the one I just bought. It is not, in an ideal scenario, a consumable item.
Mmmmm yummy
Well you might have enjoyed your Laptop so much that you are going to gift a new one to all of your friends

I think it's Nate Bargatzki who talked about how he bought a refrigerator and then Amazon kept recommending refrigerators to him. He said "I already solved that problem, Amazon. Remember? You were there".
Yup. I needed to buy some thumb tacks once and now Amazon thinks I need them all the time….
It more so pisses me off when I buy a really expensive item and Amazon is trying to sell me a second one.
Like ya, maybe I'll consider getting another pack of pens, but I think I'm good on the GPU.
You need a toaster for every room!
It's always funny to me when someone talks about how awesome the tech behind recommender-systems is and what complex problems had to be solved to make it work but in the end it's still just absolute garbage.
It's not really that interesting, you find hot spots where interest between items is correlated.
yeah similarly to AI right? Also not really interesting, you just do some math and boom: AI!
AI/ML covers a ton of algorithms, some of them are that boring, some of them aren't.
Re above. Take all users who viewed all items. Run a MapReduce to segregate them into pairs. Calculate the frequency of pairs and store the result. That clearer? More expensive than complex.
Reducing the computational cost is what makes it complex... but why am I even discussing this here anyway, I was mocking the topic in the first place. Your disregard of the problems in the details is kinda amusing though, because that's probably the reason most recommender engines are as crap as they are.
Well, there's problems that are complex at the center, and there's problems that aren't. This one isn't.

This has got to be from Dead Like Me? I don't remember this moment, but it feels like a scene from Dead Like Me.
Yeah it's Dead Like Me.

After George was killed by the flaming ballistic toilet seat, her sister developed an obsession.
Right! That jogs my memory. Thank you!
Yep. Pretty sure I remember it from there. Shame that show lost its creator and went downhill.
Sounds like you should go for “Subscribe and save!”
Yeah. She could've saved 5% with subscribe and save!
Seat yo self!
I'm amazed that people still buy from Amazon.
I am curious, what do you use?
For a toilet seat is probably go to bunnings warehouse.
I have two choices in this town- a big box store or buy from Amazon. At least I don't have to get in my car and drive 10 miles, park in the back of a parking lot, be bombarded by corporate propaganda in the form of visuals and audio, annoyed by salespeople who have been told to annoy me on purpose and finally get to the toilet seat, then stand on line for 20 minutes because they have one cashier and the guy at the front of the line wants to pay in a combination of a handwritten check, pennies and lottery tickets and won't listen to the fact that they don't accept checks, pennies or lottery tickets, then walk through the parking lot and drive back home if I buy from Amazon.
Other than that, what difference does it make? Either one horrible megacorporation gets my money or the other one does.
The fact is, those of us outside of larger cities, we don't have a lot of options much of the time. There is no small business hardware store here. Not anymore.

Perhaps not, but are there not online alternatives to amazon?
My legs personally
Why do you need to use something? Maybe just stop buying so much sh
Most people in my area go for Lazada or Shoppee nowadays.
"Imagine you had a mood toilet seat and you come home to find that there is an imprint of an ass that had used it it. And it was angry."
It's mad!
I bought a laptop, from Amazon, something I do at most every 2-3 years.
For months since Amazon has been spamming me with laptop offers. I don't see what the best case scenario here is, I return the one I bought and get a new one?

Let's be honest though... there's been a time in your life that you've gone into a public restroom and wished that you had your own toilet seat with you.
Nah. A travel bidet, though, must have.
Whenever I would buy rabbit food for a rabbit I was taking care of I would always get ads for chinchilla food and food for other small mammals. Like, I'm not out here collecting animals I just got the one.
