    We have an enhancement opened with Apple to have a way to delete .cstemp files if the tool runs into them. You'd think we could just add a `find . -name '*.cstemp' -exec rm {} \;` …

    To your point, I replaced an LSTM that required ~$100k of infrastructure with XGBoost that required no more infrastructure (we created and used the model at query time on existing …

    Bishop is going to be more theoretical than ISL. It is true that Bishop is taught as an introduction to ML in many universities, but if you want more hands on to start with, ISL is…

    ISL is a more introductory book than Bishop or Murphy. There's no reason not to read all of them, they're all excellent books that cover different topics. I'd also throw in Element…

    I was where you're at about ... oh wow, it's been almost ten years since I jumped into machine learning. Mind you, I've been learning on the side most of this time other than a the…

    I’m a touch typist and don’t find that argument valid either for vi or emacs. And I’ve used emacs for over 30 years now and still do use vi occasionally on production servers where…
