  1. UI engineers seem to have a spooky ability to instantly detect corner cases, like a Chess/Go player seeing patterns on the board.
  2. @oxnrtr looking for something similar to Joy of Clojure in the sense of having strong opinions about idiomatic problem-solving style.
  3. Thanks @oxnrtr and @raychaser for Scala recs - will check out Scala in Depth, runners-up: Programming in Scala, Scala for the Impatient.
  4. Looking for Scala resource recommendations: The Joy of Clojure is to #clojure as _____ is to #scala?
  5. @mrjose The paper/code have all links w/ unif strength for simplicity, but there is no reason you couldn't use diff strengths for each link.
  6. @mrjose I think my UWisc CS still fwds but they disconnected my old llnl.gov pretty quickly - thank goodness for Twitter :)
  7. @aneesha you're welcome - hope it was helpful!
  8. How to get performance? Very carefully RT @wesmckinn: Mastering high performance data algorithms I: Group By bit.ly/J9EDoO #pydata
  9. CSI: HPROF
  10. RT @davidbuttler: Getting to the mixtures in Dirichlet Process Mixture Models - Wordsi by @fozziethebeat bit.ly/K6CP0V
  11. @emhansen nice! will be interested to hear how you like it.
  12. I posted some tips on logging patterns and strategies at the @SumoLogic blog: sumologic.com/blog/company/s…
  13. Definitely enjoyed @coursera algorithms class - great lectures, HW deadlines kept me "on pace", and the price is right.
  14. CFP for Software Mining workshop at KDD 2012 - data mining on code, comments, docs, commits, logs, behavior, ... lamda.nju.edu.cn/conf/softmine1…
  15. Pretty neat stuff in this "Damn Cool Algorithms" blog series, especially the Levenshtein Automata one blog.notdot.net/tag/damn-cool-…
  16. @atpassos_ml looks excellent - thanks. Funny course title: is it "more advanced" algorithms or more "advanced algorithms"?
