1/ Years ago, I went full-time into writing & cut ML practice. At some point, I felt like an impostor writing about ML but no longer practicing. This competition about water supply forecasting on DrivenData (500k prize pool) was a way back in.

Health secretary Wes Streeting is trying to push local NHS authorities in to adopting the Federated Data Platform run by Palantir.

But a report by Medact said the “highly interoperable nature” of Palantir’s software could enable “data-driven state abuses of power”, including US-style ICE raids.

A long-read on the state of data science in the non-profit sector. Hiring DS is hard; low salaries & most orgs only need 1 (lonely). Non-profits lack knowledge to cut through hype. I left tech for food systems & animal-welfare to tackle exactly these problems!

Great points in this article. It's important to emphasize when it comes to using open-source you get what you get. If you want a better technology, you either have to build it or buy it: the perfect fit really isn't an option. https://buff.ly/3DWoc2U.
