No need to pick stock winners with any sort of fancy algorithm – just choose dividend stocks that are out of favour and consequently have high yields. The average yield for the stocks making the 2025 Dogs of the TSX is about 6.5%. In my own implementation of the BTTSX strategy I ...
A naïve string search will look at every single character. Instead, I use theBoyer–Moore string-search algorithm. Specifically, I use theinternal implementationfrom Go's standard library. I've changed the types to be[]byteinstead ofstringto make less allocations but aside from that it's c...
I could try and do the same tests and provide as much info as possible, but in the end, it’s an algorithm I created for which I could be easily biased. Right? Well, George (OSV Insider) ran exhaustive tests, cross validations and scenarios to verify the Action Score. I’ll be shar...
First, DuckDuckGo didn’t start as a nerd attempt to find the ultimate algorithm.Instead, he just wanted to make the search less spammy, more focused on privacy, and able to find more instant answers. Second, even though Gabriel Weinberg was not a lover of social networks (though he ...
Whether it’s facial recognition onApple’s iOS 10orFacebook learning to recognize human facesvirtually as well as another person, there’s no doubting that facial recognition technology is big business right now. But while both of those companies have massive, multi-billion dollar budgets behind...

(Phys.org) -- A pair of university researchers has managed to duplicate the efforts of Doyne Farmer, who as a graduate student in the 1970’s devised a means for tilting the odds in favor of a gambler playing roulette at a casino using a small hidden com
Luckily, those solutions are forthcoming – although some sound better in theory than execution. Ateam of researchersat the University of Macau in China recently wrote about developing a trust algorithm so we could more easily understand the difference between spam and non-spam posts. “Since th...
“We have a guy on set who literally has to make sure all the technical sounding stuff is right, because a lot of the stuff we’re dealing with is all, at this point, theoretical,” says Middleditch. “There is no groundbreaking compression algorithm that has changed everything ...
