Or doing some arithmetic summing something for example or it might be to try and recreate the decision making process that we use in our human brain on a more sophisticated level. facebooks algorithms were originally configured to help harvard university students stay in touch with one another they exploited the way the students had a small group of close friends and a wider looser social circle. the algorithms are now bashfully more complex but exactly how they work is a closely guarded commerc...

People like me just dont agree with him that his actions were inappropriate. i would like to see him answer how he could possibly say he would take the same action again, which i understand he says in the book, understanding, after having admitted that whole point was, he took this action because of political consideration. i think what he has in his mind is that the only bias that can hurt or damage the fbis decision-making process is a partisan or political bias and i think what his actions ha...

Even speaking of politics will make more democrats more upset about his decision making process. but at the end of the day, we know ultimately that james comey was one of the reasons that hillary clinton lost. there was some flaws in her campaign but ultimately when you lose, you are going to point the finger. but when you have a guy supposed to be nonpolitical doing political things, it is important. >> do you think, watching the tape, it is possible that comeys decision to move forward with th...

Situation involving potential attacks on syria is more at the pentagon than the white house. they did list potential targets to the white house and there was a hole up. this is a slowdown in the process of potentially putting together a serious strike that occurred prior to the decision-making process getting to the white house. there has been reporting since then there have been conversations in the security council about where to strike. but its important to remember while the white house clea...
