“Models are opinions embedded in mathematics”
Some reviews:
I am a full-time consultant and provide services related to the design, implementation and deployment of mathematical programming, optimization and data-science applications. I also teach courses and workshops. Usually I cannot blog about projects I am doing, but there are many technical notes I'd like to share. Not in the least so I have an easy way to search and find them again myself. You can reach me at erwin@amsterdamoptimization.com.

“Models are opinions embedded in mathematics”
Some reviews:
Weapons of Math Destruction is a very important book that seeks to call to account algorithm-based automated computer systems which are increasingly making decisions about a whole range of aspects of our lives. With a Harvard Doctorate in algebraic number theory, Cathy O’Neill has an insider’s of view of WMDs, having both lectured on the subject and subsequently worked for a Hedge Fund on Wall Street at the time of the 2008 crash.
