The machine is great! How is its performance for AI model training? A lot of library and tools are not built for M series chip

That's my concern as R studio is open source; VS is not! But anyway, I should applaud for this move of MS. It's a very smart move strategically. R usage is climbing the chart...

R studio is already a very mature IDE platform for R programming. What's more can you offer than R studio?

Thank you for your quick responses. However, that's the problem for me that I am lack of connections with CEO/COOs. But I am pretty interested in what you mentioned that there are several great law firms which provide incorporations service for free. Could you list some of them for our reference. I think more people may benefit from such a information. Thank you.

why I get a "-1" on this? Have anyone compared processing text between Perl and Python? I really cannot agree that python is superior to Perl at this task according to my daily work. Some language is popular doesn't mean it's good at everything.

Perl is better at that than Python.

PDL is the Perl packages for numerical science. Unless you did a lot of mathematics computation, PDL is rarely used in my daily routine.

I consider myself a data scientist in bioinformatics field. I have to deal with several hundred GB scale data everyday. IMO, the best tool kit so far is the combination of Perl and R. Because these tools have the richest packages/modules, you can do almost everything with them. As for python, I don't think it can deal with the data I have as efficient as Perl.

I like this post very much. This strategy can be applied anywhere for your success. The core value or target here is "people". You get people's heart, you get everything!

Completely agree with OP on this comment! I really doubt Groupon's business model, hardly believe that coupon style business could be a main stream of profit.

Would like to short this IPO when it comes to the stock market.

another thought is: if it's possible (I do notice the copyright for this), could we put it on wiki, so everyone can update it after approved by Dr. Saed Sayad to generate a comprehensive one.

That's a great overview of data mining. I am wondering if you can somehow insert multivariate analysis into this flow chart. Multivariate analysis may be a good substitute for clustering methods. Thank you for providing such a clear picture.

that's the software not the machine. Can pc run photoshop?

I'm really not a fun for Mac stuff. It's just a fashion thing, not for work. For the money you spent on Mac, you can definitely buy a cheap powerful machine with free reliable Linux system.

No matter to say its monopoly of market, even an adapter to projector need its own. I have seen so many times someone using a Mac but forgot bringing that stupid adapter for projector, she/he had to change to PC to do the presentation.

Still don't understand why people like such pricey not comparably useful machine.

Cool stuff. But it seems lacking manual to run it. I would like to see manuals about how to build it, run it at command line and etc. Better docs can really add a lot attractions. Anyway, thank you for providing such as beautiful tool. It has been years that R under linux has no such a good IDE.

These are very nice resource for me. Thank you for your info. And Thank you for all the advice given by the above people.

points taken. I updated my original post. sorry for that condescending tone.

Thank you garply. "an education sufficiently advanced to train people to do those things would certainly include Bayesian statistics somewhere in the curriculum" is exactly what I want to convey.

I agree, it's not immediate application. But Bayesian is one of the most important or fundamental knowledge to develop these cutting-edge technologies.

what do you think?

Hi Guys,

I am from China, and of course the Bayesian is taught in China. Only in the culture revolution time, this crazy thing may happen; but it's long time ago when Mao was alive. Now China is a modern society; of course, the Bayesian theory is taught in schools; otherwise how could they send the spaceship to the outer space and have the fastest super computer in the world so far. you are smart hackers, not a bunch of kids controlled by traditional biases. As to censorship, that's right, china has notorious censorship. I guess the author's book must have some contents/examples regarding political issues; not Bayesian itself was the reason for the book being censored. These days, when people talked about censorship, I always think of wiki-leaks ......
