Oh wow, huge congrats to the team! This idea has been tossed around since the beginning, really exciting to see it happening :)

Helping @erinselene dig into latent style has been one of the most fun parts of my time at @stitchfix_algo ! Awesome post too. nitter.gq/chrisemoody/status/101…

I wrote a blog post on extracting meaning from typically black box recommender systems. Thanks @iPancreas for the beautiful data visualization describing it! nitter.gq/chrisemoody/status/101…

I should thank my parents every day that I somehow grew up without feeling bound to a particular role that I and my body should play in the world. I get that shit externally ofc but it's a huge privilege not to generate it internally too. nitter.gq/alicegoldfuss/status/9…

We should start a movement called "1% for OSS", a program where VC's and startup companies agree to invest 1% of their funding round into the infrastructure that their companies rely on. #sustain #sustainoss
