That sound dubious. Can you back that claim up?

That is correct.

Your beliefs are also irrelevant here. If prices were dropping, inflation would be default be negative. That is, deflation.

Inflation is the rate of change. If inflation is positive prices are rising. Inflation can be declining (second derivative) but still positive.

Right now inflation over a 12 month period is higher than the historical norm of about 2%, but is falling. For individual months it’s been mostly normal levels.

Largely a nothing story.

Reading into it more, the second most predictive feature was a context variable. That is, identifying features of the specific song.

I think this one gets a thumbs down from me.

Hold up. They did this on beat saber… with a 50000 class output (one per user).

They seem to be using mod songs, and are not accounting for the fact that people are playing different songs.

Your motion is entirely determined by the song. I think they’re just identifying pairs of song choice and user height.

Note that one of their metadata features is “replay > 100”, meaning they probably have examples of the same user doing the same song many many times

> We don’t have any obstacle left in mind that we don’t expect to get overcome in more than 6 months after efforts are invested to take it down.

Tell a robot to do something new and have it do it.

An associate is typically a fresh MBA grad or someone with a few years of tenure out of school.

Awkward imbalance of levels aside, I enjoy the consulting lifestyle personally. It’s interesting to work with many different clients and have enough political clout to get things done on a fast timeline.
