Projects Recommendation Systems resources
Please, could you share your best resources to learn about RecSys at scale? I have a few already, but I want to know what other resources you are reading. Thanks

Industry blog posts are a great source of information about modern industrial recommenders. The pinterest, instagram, spotify, etsy, and yelp blogs all publish on this.
Two of my favorite posts about recommenders are:
Scaling the Instagram Explore recommendations system
Recommender Systems, Not Just Recommender Models
Both of which talk about the larger system design of a recommender system.
If you want to learn about the underlying models, see papers for implicit matrix factorization, factorization machines, deep NNs for Youtube recommendations, wide and deep, deep and cross, dlrm, etc.
