Ready to dive DEEP into predictive modeling? You’ve come to the right podcast. In this episode, Ben and Michael sit down with Maarit Widmann, a data scientist whose bread and butter is making models more accurate. They discuss how to effectively use confusion matrices and other tools, why you need to avoid THIS misconception to get accurate churn rates, and the BIG question you should be asking if your data seems off. “If your model is failing, it’s probably been adding up for two weeks already. Instead of monitoring the accuracy, monitor the features. Ask ‘is the data changing?’” - Maarit Widmann In This Episode 1) The THREE techniques to help simplify these advanced concepts for beginners in the ML space (and why they need to know this stuff!) 2) Why you need to remember THIS misconception to avoid getting inaccurate churn rates from your models 3) How to effectively use confusion matrices, down sampling, and other popular tools for your models (and the biggest mistakes developers are making today) 4) The REAL question you need to ask yourself if your data seems off (and how this question helps prevent fraud!)

The 3 Essentials for Successful Job Outcomes - BONUS

Chuck dives into the 3 essentials for getting the next successful outcome you want in your career. Whether that's something simple like a raise or something more complex like going freelance, you can achieve it by working on 3 main areas. First, building skills. The most obvious type of skills you'll need is technical skills. However, don't neglect your people skills and your organizational skills as well since you're often paid for how you work with people and enhance their work and how you put your work together in the most efficient ways. Second, building relationships. Often other people will be able to help you find the opportunities or will be the ones to make the decisions that impact your ability to get the outcome you want. Having good relationships is key to having good outcomes. Third, building recognition. Being known for being valuable in important ways allows you to leverage the skills you have to build better relationships and create opportunities to get what you need to get the outcomes you want by giving people what they want. A podcast is a great way to do all three. Chuck explains exactly how that works in this podcast and goes deeper as part of the Dev Influencers Accelerator.
