He put a video up about this a couple of weeks ago, and rather than YouTube's algorithm being to blame, it was more him struggling to keep up with his audiences constant demand for more progress with more super sketchy features that he was basicly building constantly.

"the Algoirithm" often gets sited, but it's often a youtuber's interaction with thier audience, the pressure to keep up with demand, rising success and not wanting to miss out.

Getting 2k users is no small task, congrats.

Did most start using it when it was a free spreadsheet linked to a reddit post or have the 2300 users all bought the $4.99 product?

Has there been a change in take-up since you monetised it?

Sounds like the tech wasn't deployed for "Refund Fraud" (it would be easier to just use facial recognition when a refund was made) but instead deployed across all stores to see what they could do with the data.

I'd be very surprised if refund fraud was the only POC that this facial recognition data was used for.

> Why choose this type of subject matter to draw conclusions from?

Because they were English Lit students, and the paper was to see how modern students interpret and understand literary modes such as simile, metaphor and their underlying meaning.

It'd be interesting to see how the visuals change when you're viewing the path, rather than a filled area.

Not seen one of these tables with two balls in... You'd probably need quite a lot of height to offset the linear sliders so didn't collide with each other.

You could similarly consider driving a car as "a tool that helps me get to X quicker". Now tell me cars don't make you lazy.
