Yeah after making an algorithm for peertube I'm gonna say this is too complicated to implement. That graphic might be the the plan and it's something more simplistic.
Making a simple cosign vector for peertube was a pain
"I failed at making something, therefore someone else could certainly not make something more complex than the thing I failed at"

I didn't fail, I actually succeeded. Plus judging by how hard it was to do a simple algorithm an algorithm like this would take way too much effort.
Given from the infographic they didn't even think about an algorithm let alone worked on it
"Because I did something substantially simpler than this, and struggled to get it done, they must be lying."

Lol you really don't understand recommendation algorithms 🫵🤣
K
Seriously though, it's literally already implemented. Might be too complex for you to implement, but apparently not for them.
How do you know it's implemented as described in the picture?
How do you know it's not?
I already explained how I know. So you can answer my question or just dodge?
Saying you tried something simpler and it was hard is not proof that this implementation is a fraud. If anything, it just makes you look less credible yourself. If you have specific aspects you can point to that are impractical, and the technical reasons they wouldn't work, feel free, but it's not a dodge to say that the diagram makes sense and this team had done a lot of impressive work already.
It actually is on account that it's real world experience that gives me insight into how algorithms are done. Expertise you don't have
I'm not worried about credibility since I look more credible than you because you flipped a question and never answered how you know
So buddy you gonna prove the algorithm in loop works exactly like it does in the picture or give me the W?
Are you really asking me to take a video of me using the app for an extended period of time and analyzing the results to determine if it lines up with the various details of the algorithm outlined above? Cause I'm not really sure how else I would prove that its actually implemented as described.
I have not flipped the question, I am just genuinely curious of the details you find hard to believe here. It all seems quite straight forward and understandable to me. Complex, sure, but again, they have done a lot of impressive work already, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that it is implemented as described. Or at the very least, that's what they're working towards. I would love to hear you, a self proclaimed expert on the subject, explain the details that don't work, other than "I tried and its hard".
Nope asking you to prove that the algorithm works like it does in the picture.
I don't helping you understand super basic things
How can I prove it, when I don't have access to the code? Please, tell me how I would prove it, specifically.
I'll explain it if you admit my points are right and your too ignorant on this subject to argue with me
Ok, your points are all 100% right and I'm too much of a dumb fuck pleb on the subject to argue. Your dick is made of gold, and I will suck it on cue for you, whenever you want.
Now go ahead and explain how I, or you, or anyone else, could prove that this is not implemented as described.
Well the code is published on github for you to review. I'm sure you can find the functions and variables the digest them in your head to match them to the blocks in the picture
Ok, I checked it. Looks legit. Now what?
Well you take your L and move on
Lol, no. You are the supposed algorithm expert, so tell me how what I saw in the code is wrong. It looks right to me, so unless you explain what its missing, then you will the one taking the L and moving on. ✌️
Sorry it's on you to prove it not me
Do you need me to link you to the specific aspects of the algorithm diagrammed above? Are you really that lazy that you can't look over it yourself?
Nope
K
You already tried that
O rly?
Because I wrote it, just look at the code
