How does machine learning apply to something like astrology?
They both require some faith in magic. Half the companies claiming to use AI or machine learning are full of shit anyway.
Astrology and machine learning just seem so different. One is a poor attempt at prediction using dubious, shoddy, poorly understood methods that generally amount either to general wooly vagueries or completely wrong conclusions that are no better than random chance, and the other deals with planets.
Edit: Nevermind - I was thinking Astronomy
I don't work there, but recently a new exoplanet was found using a neural net:

This looks more like astronomy domain rather than astrology.
We are looking for a full stack developer who is familiar with at least one of Haskell, Swift, or AWS and is open to learning the others. We love types at Co—Star, and a passion for statically verifying code is a plus. Some of the technologies we use include:
- Haskell (our whole web api is written in this!)
- Swift
- Python (we use AWS Lambda to wrap python libraries we don’t want to port to Haskell)
- React + TypeScript
You’ll be our first engineering hire (joining two engineering founders), so you’ll have a big say in what we do and how we do it. We’re growing quickly and want you to be a part of helping us scale up, tackling problems like partitioning our database, switching to a more sophisticated messaging queue and improving our machine learning pipelines.
