We changed the URL from https://www.tensorflow.org/ , which doesn't say anything about 1.0, to an article which gives a bit of background. If someone suggests a better URL we can change it again.

The announcement post was just published: https://research.googleblog.com/2017/02/announcing-tensorflo...

The URL when I first clicked this was the GitHub release notes, which is far more informative and apropos to the HN audience than either the TF landing page or vague VentureBeat pseudonews.

We changed it to that page for a few seconds, but it's pretty low-level for a 1.0 release. The official blog post seems best.

How do I get started with machine learning? I have a couple of applications in mind, mostly time series predictions. But the machine learning field seems to be vast and I don't know where to start.

http://cs231n.github.io/ is a great site for beginners. I've been following the site along the Udacity Self Driving Car nanodegree. The CS231 material has helped me understand the concepts significantly.

Edit: I should mention that the class mainly focuses on neural networks and image recognition. However, once you have the foundation, you can apply your skillset to a vast range of applications.

I stumbled across a three-chapter preview of the upcoming book Learning TensorFlow on Safari Books Online and went through them in a sitting. It was so accessible - both the book and TensorFlow itself - and inspired me to start learning math so that when the rest of the book comes out I will be better prepared to go deeper. I love learning in general, but haven't been this excited about learning something totally new…

Do you have a link to the said book?
