If you are content with mediocrity, or you don't want to admit to mediocrity ("I'm just not made for this, let's never do it again"), you will fail 3). To learn, you need to care. You need intrinsic drive.

If you know of any team or individual working under the radar on applying ML to solve an ambitious problem that benefits the public good, please reply and share their work. I'll amplify. Very curious to see what will show up :)

All countries in the world promised to reach the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. To allow all of us to hold governments to account we built the data platform that shows you where we currently stand: sdg-tracker.org We are currently *very* far from reaching them.

On behalf of the whole Google Research & @GoogleAI community, I was excited to put together a post describing some of the work that we collectively did in 2018. I hope you enjoy it! Thanks to everyone who helped make this work possible! ai.googleblog.com/2019/01/lookin…

1/ One thing that was challenging as a 1st time founder was the transition from having built a product people loved to figuring out how to grow it beyond the word of mouth success it had become. Building a great sales & marketing org was frought w/ peril & I made many mistakes...

Announcing DepthFirstLearning.com! We are building a repository of study guides targeting consequential papers. Check it out, learn something in-depth, and help us build the next one. @avitaloliver @suryabhupa @kumarkagrawal @cinjoncin

I think it's totally inspiring that a law school graduate who now works as a substitute teacher at a public school is able to teach themselves data science through MOOCs to such a high level that they can win an award of this kind! :) twitter.com/Adam_Houl/stat…

In Tanzania, a Village Mama hands out tablets for children to use in the #GlobalLearningXPRIZE. Over 2,000 children in 141 villages are using the learning apps developed for this competition. #XPFromTheField

This is basically identical to what I've been doing for the last 6 years. I've got about 30,000 cards now! twitter.com/michael_nielse…

Just uploaded jupyter-ros, a library that will make it easier for robotics people to use the interactive @ProjectJupyter notebook! Create jupyter widgets directly from ROS messages – source: github.com/wolfv/jupyter-… Next: live plotting of @rosorg topics Contributors welcome!
