marcuniq··on MLflow: An Open Source Machine Learning Platform
RiseML seems to be another alternative: https://riseml.com/

Not open source though

marcuniq··on Best laptop for linux (probably Ubuntu)?
I have a T440p and dual boot Win10 and Ubuntu. Everything works out of the box, except the Nvidia GPU. Switching between Intel and Nvidia is possible, but for some unknown reasons I can't boot with Nvidia activated. Configuring the Xserver was not straight forward for my use cases (dock with 1 monitor/laptop only).
marcuniq··on Machine Learning in Monitoring Is BS
I believe Numenta Grok[0] tries to do exactly that: applying ML to monitoring. Anyone knows if it works?

marcuniq··on Lumosity fined $2M for deceptive ads of “Brain Training” app
Improvement of fluid intelligence by training with dual-n-back was studied in Jaeggi et al.[0], but could not be successfully replicated [1]. More in the following article: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/brain-training-doe...

Long live Prof. Bertrand Meyer ;)
marcuniq··on Ask HN: It's 39°C (102F) in Belgium, what hacks do you have to cool down?
Go to a public library which has an A/C, get some work done or just read a book :)
marcuniq··on Show HN: Tyk Cloud – Open Source API Management in The Cloud
How does Tyk differentiate from Kong(http://getkong.org/)?
marcuniq··on Ask HN: Which laptop brands are worth shortlisting for Windows work/development?
I have personally tested 40+ business laptops(Lenovo, HP, Dell) in 50+ dimensions (performance, display, wlan, heat,...) . In our assessment Lenovo came first, then HP and closely after Dell.

The difference between consumer and business laptops is enormous in terms of reliability and how long they last, even from the same manufacturer. In our experience, the only "consumer" laptops which can keep up with the mentioned business laptop brands are from Apple.

PS: Check out projektneptun.ch for reasonable configurations of Lenovo/HP/Apple laptops. I own a Lenovo Thinkpad T440p.
