<br>
Things have been pretty quiet lately. Only 3 people<br>
showed up to the random forest talk. Although their<br>
enthusiasm and attendance was well appreciated, it<br>
bums me out that more people didn't show.<br>
<br>
One thing that has struck me over the past two years<br>
or so working with the ML group is how diverse, creative,<br>
and intelligent the people are who show up. I've never<br>
regretted giving a presentation at Noisebridge and figure<br>
most of you feel the same.<br>
<br>
I have some traveling to do and won't be back until March,<br>
but would really be psyched to see some more participation<br>
in the meetups starting then! Btw, they're now on Thursday<br>
nights - we lost our Monday spot because of lack of activity,<br>
if that wasn't already clear. See you soon,<br>
<br>
mike<br>
