Justice for Alex Pretti and Renee Good!

Thursday, January 29

Little one was home again today. Day care has been closed four days this week. I laid down with them around 1 p.m. so that they'd take a nap while mamá was out for an appointment. Papá accidentally took a nap too - and woke up past 4 p.m.!

Oops.

I've so far kept up with my self-directed 30 days of scikit-learn.

Today: SVMs with different kernels (linear, polynomial, rbf, and sigmoid, special thanks to this article for helping me to understand their differences and uses).

Tomorrow: `from sklearn.naive_bayes import GaussianNB`

accidentally just spent nearly four and a half hours watching gettysburg (1993). visually stunning, accurate to my historical recollection and visits to the battlefield. pretty great film!

Quantum algorithms exploit interference - the alignment and cancellation of amplitudes - to outperform any classical probabilistic method. In quantum programming, interference is our power tool: we engineer it to build up correct answers and erase the wrong ones.
