Wait, but why visual content?

The blog “Wait But Why” (http://waitbutwhy.com/) is an excellent example of great differentiation through visual content. Even though the blog gets hundreds of thousands of views each month, it’s still filled with simple stick figure illustrations.

If you have never been to this site, I recommend that you check it out. “Wait But Why” is a long form written blog that breaks down diverse topics relating to subtle things in life. Some posts are on science and others are on quirks in our interpersonal relationships.

“Wait But Why” masterfully uses visual content to help clarify the written ideas, to add comic relief, and to break up the long form posts into smaller chunks with pleasant visuals and very few paragraphs.

What makes the “Wait But Why” visual content endearing is the use of simple stick figures and illustrations that look like they were created by the team especially for that post. Despite their “low budget” appearance, the images add a lot of value to the content. Through their simplicity, the images actually do a very good job of communicating ideas quickly.

Storytelling with visual content

There are many different ways visual content can help you tell a better story.

AdEspresso (http://adespresso.com/) has a character that appears in almost all of the featured images on their blog. In many ways this character acts like a mascot for the company, creating something consistent that followers can relate to.

It Does Not Require Trendlines Or Other Indicators To Be Able To Project Future Moves

( The picture was taken from: http://www.technicaltradingindicators.com/tradestation- indicator s/83-candlestick-patterns/) Depending on the time frame, a candle like Hammer or Shooting Star can be a clear reversal signal as it shows enormous buying/selling pressure on the coin. It does not require trendlines or other indicators to be able to project future moves, especially if the candle was formed on a daily time frame or higher. Another very important single candle you will need is the one that appears during a blow-off top or capitulation. Those two are the reversal points in a trend, where the price makes an explosive move which then very quickly retraces. It is an indicator of a buying/selling climax that is followed by other people leaving or entering the market in an accelerated movement. A candle like this usually is massive and has a long wick which is later followed by another few candles that represent this accelerated buying/selling. Candles can also create...

THIS CAN TAKE THE FORM OF A HIERARCHY OR ORDER

this can take the form of a hierarchy or order While we have only touched on a portion of unsupervised learning, it is important to note that it is a vital branch of machine learning with lots of real world applications. Clustering as an example can be used to discover data groups and get a unique perspective of data before feeding it into traditional supervised learning algorithms. Implementation of the Model Clustering is a type of unsupervised learning technique in which there are no explicit labels. Clustering is used to discover groups of data points in a dataset. A group or cluster is made up of members that are similar to each other but are collectively different from other clusters. A good clustering algorithm must have the ability to discover some or all hidden clusters in a dataset, should exhibit in cluster similarity but different clusters should be dissimilar or far from each other. The clustering algorithm should also be scalable to larger datasets and shoul...
