Finally merged some work related to case-attribute data. We tested
that with @zsloan. Some issues cropped up. I’ll outline that in our
issue tracker and send out an e-mail to relevant stake holders to
address that.
I missed out on some important meeting (about processors); and this
was because I couldn’t get Zoom working on my machine(my phone was
out too!).
This week my focus will be on outlining the top 10 (with 2 tests
each) most important things/ functionality to have tested in gn2.
Grad School
Computed– in R– the MLE (Most Likely Estimator) of the Exponential
and Pareto distribution using the Newton-Raphson method. I’ll try
hacking one for the Gamma distribution before my next class.
Fooled around with smoothing functions in R.
Books
Finished the book: “Just A Book” (this book chronicles
the band: “Just A Band”).
Started and finished: “Deep Work” by Cal Newport.
Started: “The Sense of Style” by Steven Pinker.
Personal & Miscellaneous
I’m healing really well. No more puffy eye-lids and lips.
Installed (against my philosophy of free s/w) Mi Home on my
phone. It’s cool to remotely control my device. I’d ill-advise any
one to do this.
My young sister (11 y/o) got 2 puppies.
My cursive is becoming more snappy. My cursive is sexy ;)
Went to a dear one’s birthday over the weekend.
My older sibling shared his tips on interviewing in the
aforementioned birthday event.
Personal realisation: I like my sense of individualism; and I like
quiet spaces.
