К началу 1980 года Apple II, который поначалу отставал от Commodore PET и Tandy/Radio Shack TRS-80, добился поразительного успеха, во многом благодаря программе VisiCalc от Personal Software. Первичное размещение акций Apple в конце года подтвердило этот факт, сделав миллионерами сотни людей. Два основных соучредителя Apple Computer, Стив Возняк и Стив Джобс, отреагировали на свой внезапный успех совершенно по-разному. Читать далее Read more

Как мы анализировали поведение пользователей Яндекс Музыки на 50 млн событий

Сегодня значительная часть пользовательского опыта формируется рекомендательными системами: персональными подборками, автоматическими плейлистами, «волнами» и похожими механизмами. Пользователь может сам искать музыку, добавлять треки в библиотеку и слушать знакомых артистов, а может переходить по рекомендациям алгоритма. Возникает естественный исследовательский вопрос: рекомендации действительно расширяют музыкальный кругозор и Read more
