@JioCare The worst customer facing team I have experienced when requesting a transfer of physical sim to e-sim. The best part of all is that every single interaction over email asks for a different set of documents and CRF form fixes. They do not want to help the customer.

Liked the way @sh_reya have articulated her thoughts. These are no doubt the most pressing problems in the DS/ML industry. I will try out @DVCorg

[Shreya Shankar @sh_reya]

In good software practices, you version code. Use Git. Track changes. Code in master is ground truth.

In ML, code alone isn't ground truth. I can run the same SQL query today and tomorrow and get different results. How do you replicate this good software practice for ML? (1/7)

Glad to share my first pre-print! Our worked describes that TTM1 phosphorylation regulates its function and stability. https://t.co/iksBgmnEr3

fastai2 and the new course will be released Aug 21st.

The new course includes both machine learning and deep learning - we don't have separate courses for these two topics any more.

fastai2's design is explained in this peer-reviewed paper: https://t.co/zbS0kgzcYH

After many months of work we are excited to announce the new Jupyter Book!

https://t.co/WzaJXaku6j

This is a complete re-write of Jupyter Book to make it more modular, powerful, customizable, and easy to use. See this 🧵 for some highlights!

1/ There is growing evidence that T-cell immunity allows populations to reach herd immunity once only 10-20% are infected with SARS-CoV-2.

This would explain why a highly transmissible virus in densely populated areas peaked at 10-20% infected regardless of lockdowns or masks.

We need your help to contain the virus. Get the COVID Alert app so that, together, we can limit the spread of COVID-19. Download it here: https://t.co/ezliPEnRKE

One of our very first mentees, @karanteckwani, got hired over a year ago. He now leads the data science team at a startup.

Today, Karan returned to SM as a mentor.

Here's his reaction on activating his mentor account for the first time just now 😀

@PizzaPizzaLtd Bought a pizza from your chain last night and turns out there was a glove piece between the dough and cheese. Extremely disappointed 😞

Pretty scary hearing ⁦@DrElaineChin⁩ talk about the stats. By 2020 73% of the world will have a chronic illness. 1 out of 2 will have cancer! We need to manage the risks now while we have time. We need to be proactive vs reactive. #predictivemedicine #ElevateTechFest
