” Each step has been a twist on “what if we could write code to interact with a tamper-resistant ledger in real-time?” Hadoop’s value—being able to crunch large datasets—often paled in comparison to its costs. This is where agent-based modeling (ABM) comes into play. The elephant was unstoppable.

[Note: In more technical machine learning terms, the cost function of the skip-gram architecture is to maximize the log probability of any possible context word from a corpus given the current target word.] With CBOW, it is the inverse: The target word is predicted based on the context words. A major benefit of fastText.
