i still don't trust it: have gone to a few users i was pretty much 100% super-compatibility with before, and it still says low.
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 7 January 2009 17:49 (fifteen years ago) link
they should really say how they changed it and why or it just seems slightly arbitrary.
― what U cry 4 (jim), Wednesday, 7 January 2009 17:49 (fifteen years ago) link
its changed for some people and not for others. so maybe the new algorithm hasn't been applied to everyone yet.
anyway all of you check your neighbours page. It's totally different now. A Belgian friend of mine (no, not nath) is now my top neighbour!

Is there anyone here math-savvy-geeky enought to try to GUESS what the last.fm algorithm is?
Or perhaps just make one up anyway?
I'm guessing it's something like
SUM(Directly Matching Band * Your Plays * Neighbor's Plays) + SUM(Adjacent band * your plays * neighbor's plays * 0.5) + SUM(Two-degrees-away band * your plays * neighbor's plays * 0.25) + etc.
Too bad there's no BBCode for mathematical notation. :(

We've still got some bad data cached for users whose tasteometers you viewed in the past 24 hours; we should be clearing it out later today, but in the meantime you'll get new tasteometer scores for user pages you haven't seen in the past 24 hours and the old scores for those you have.In summary: this should now be fixed, but the data will take a little time to propogate.

Weird, that there a couple people I either had good compatibility with or feel like I should have good compatibility with who rated as Low. (xp: pfunkboy's note probably explains that) I would like to note that me and Colonel Poo's top shared artist is Biz Markie. XD

I wonder if compatibility is going to change often as users play more stuff. That would be really good.

yeah some sort of adjustment once in a while would be nice...i felt that my neighbors were very specifically neighboring one period of my music listening life, and i had moved on but my neighbors hadn't.
there's still some funkyness going on with neighbors...on my first page of neighbors, there's a bit of reaching with "Artists We Share". A few aren't anywhere in my top 500, one is literally in last place, and one is in 403rd place with 9 plays. But when I click on the people's names under the tasteometer it names some of my top bands we have in common.
