    If you are interested in time series predictions, I would suggest you had a look at darts ( https://github.com/unit8co/darts ). It's a well designed library which provides a unifie…

    Yeah, that's a pretty common problem. I'm sure they are actively working on making sending feedback easier :). In the meantime, your technique worked! The issue is now fixed!

    That's pretty weird, thanks for reporting this! I work at Google in the Maps org, I reported your bug internally and will update this once I have a resolution. In the future, if yo…

    I would highly recomment David Duvenaud's PhD thesis [1] for anybody interested in Gaussian Processes. I find his chapter [2] on expressing structure with kernels super interesting…

    Indeed, it's pretty useful to be able to rasterize only parts of the plot! Glad you find it useful!

    Indeed, TikZ is great to create beautiful-looking plots! A friend of mine is quite good at it, e.g. look at Figure 2 in [1] and Figure 2.1 (p. 18) in [2]. For complex figures, thou…
