@Pinboard Happy belated birthday Pinboard. Your Twitter feed made me get a paid account with you a few years ago. Thanks for being awesome and reliable. I know my favorite cinnamon bun recipe is safely archived until the end of time.

Pocket shutting down the day before Pinboard turns 16 is the best birthday present I could have wanted. Remember to bookmark these failed bookmarking sites on Pinboard, so you can remember them years from now.

Oh my goodness, thanks past me. I totally forgot about that. I think it was a vodka fruit juice and a Twizzlers. Everyone was handing out Twizzlers that year.

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary I joined Twitter when I was volunteering at SXSW! They were just starting out and I think they gave me a free drink or something when I signed up.

Do you remember when you joined X? I don't but apparently this site does! #MyXAnniversary #firstpostinyears #myTwitterAccountHasALearnersPermit

@Pinboard Houston has huge immigrant populations and you can pretty much find authentic/fusion anything. That being said, I'm not seeing any Mozambican, Georgian, Mauritian, or Cree. I found six Sri Lankan restaurants. I haven't tried any of them though.

This raises another important question. What is the most difficult incredibly delicious cuisine to find in the United States? I nominate Sri Lankan but am all ears.

@xamat @skyetetra Part 2 mentioned comparing the RMSE from the contest to the one implemented in 2012, but that's just comparing the resultant error. It's not clear if any part of the model was reused.

@xamat @skyetetra I read part 1 & 2 of the blog and I'm curious: what parts of the grand prize algorithm did Netflix implement? From the posts, it sounds like it was mostly (if not totally) discarded because the problem changed.

This. This hits a strong note right now.

Something we can all agree on.
