Adventures & experiences in contemporary technology
While there is a LinkBlog on here, it has caught many different things, so I want to split off links to Data Science material and that is what you find here. At the beginning, it will be a case of moving things over from the other place, but things will appear anew on here too. Hopefully, this will stop things becoming lost in a bigger pile.
