    Join a PvP corp, fly cheap ships, do just enough missions/exploration/pirating/trading/mining/whatever to keep yourself in ammo, and have a blast shooting people. EVE only turns in…

    The issue is when people (seemingly) randomly switch between he/she and his/hers, even within a single context. Then you end up with something like: "If your child is in the kitche…

    This is also one of its major drawbacks, though, because the features it "discovers" are often not easily interpretable. Sure, you can get good classification performance, which is…
