Oleg Okun commented on Vincent Granville's blog post Google search: three bugs to fix with better data science

Oleg Okun commented on Vincent Granville's blog post Google search: three bugs to fix with better data science
"Thank you, Vincent. But why do you consider bounce rate of 55 % very good? I think a really good bounce rate needs to be 25-30%, i.e., close to its actual minimum."

Oleg Okun commented on Vincent Granville's blog post The 8 worst predictive modeling techniques
"In practice, what is more disturbing is using data mining techniques blindly. For instance, the same technique may be applied to every problem, regardless of whether it suits or not. If data doesn't fit, then it is twisted to fit…"

Oleg Okun replied to Mike Massey's discussion Customer Segments - Any good resources?

Oleg Okun commented on Amy's blog post $33,000 to get an outdated Applied Maths degree, offering no job prospects
"Tenure is to blame for mediocre teaching as a tenured position protects its holder from all troubles/worries of someone with a temporal contract. As a result, professors often are not interested to update a teaching curriculum according to…"
