When I've seen GA used or recommended to people, it's because their use case is tracking the marketing performance of their website. Tackling the privacy focus for GA is great, but they're a good deal of products out there th

Ran into this issue with a crate that uses CUDA in Rust - how do you hang onto the pointer to CUBLAS/CUDNN so that all CUDA functions use the same pointers and also it goes out of scope at the end of execution. The big problem is the

Google Analytics has a fair amount of filtering by default - including bots/spiders. Went to Plausible's website, it makes no mention of this type of blocking. That 13% could be eaten into significantly by removing that type of ac

>Not totally related, but R has a great polymorphic dispatch of functions, Dispatch in R is generally fine, but I see a great deal of UseMethod calls, and switch statements for types in the libraries I've worked with, which OTOH is

I've heard this suggestion fairly frequently - that people use Rust as a wrapper over C++ bindings to add in safety to the C++ underneath. Mostly regarding using BLAS etc in Rust rather than C++. It seems a little pointless as the unsa

The EPM is particularly worrying as AlphaStar can focus on multiple areas of the map at a single time. A common strategy in GM is to attack on one front with your main army and drop a small amount of units into the back of their base. The o

"All Cops Are Bastards" - It's to do with all individual police officers, who could be perfectly moral upstanding citizens, being complicit with an institution that has done terrible things. It's more of a reaction to th

It's not too much to expect an article entitled "What is a ket?" to explain what a Ket is . Your point is arguable if it was instead "How to implement a Ket in Rust", and even then it's a bit vague. I left wit

It would be helpful to be more upfront in the video about why Facebook is tracking this, because it looks like it's Facebook Analytics for Apps - ( https://analytics.facebook.com/get-started/Apps#fq ), which puts

It's pretty! The Basecamp styling is really clear, and it's nice to see the interface on display There's a few unanswered questions that I hope it's helpful to point out; * Importers -> If I want to switch, how long w

Tidyverse is written by a strong contributor to R, but it isn't used regularly by a large percentage of the community, so I'd be averse to calling it part of the standard libraries - although I appreciate this is what you're

The only case it struggles with is when the grouping is difficult to achieve in a small amount of splits, such as 1,3,5 against 2,4,6,7, especially when each split will need to show more predictive capability against any of the other column

I tried Catboost when it came out. It should be very popular, as working with categories is where a lot of people seem to fall down in Random Forests. The 'typical' response is either to make them into numeric variable, so 1-3 f

This is a very thinly disguised advert for the author's product, and doesn't really advance on the benefits of either approach, as it doesn't go into any depth on why Random Forests/NNs are applicable to each type of dat

> it seems to gloss over what differences the trees within the random forest have - as I understand it, they are all slightly different, and this gives them greater accuracy? They kinda cover it in the section in 3.1 and 3.2 with Baggi
