Newsletters: add #19 (2018-10-30) #80
Conversation
No problem! Thanks as ever for writing it. I'll review it this evening. @moneyball - are you still at work and feel like reviewing? |
|
I made a few minor changes - take a look at them to make sure they're correct. I also read the entire newsletter and tested it locally. Well written! I do not have the technical depth and history to confirm all of the info in notable merges, but it all seems to make sense to me. tACK |

I think this sentence could be clearer. I've made an attempt in my commit, but I'm not sure if it's any better. Let me know what you think.
We could also link directly to one of the following:

@harding - I've pushed a suggested change in a commit. Feel free to squash it or drop it. Otherwise looks great. ACK fbb4746 @moneyball - your changes look good. Thanks. |

Thanks both of you! @jnewbery your description of ASICBoost was much better than mine! I made a final small tweak to the introduction in and rephrased the text about Pierre's blog posts given that the residency program had more days than he has posts. For review, those changes are in commit d91a415 on a preservation of the full branch. Otherwise, I've squashed on this branch. Thanks again! |

Thanks Dave. I've pushed one final change. The residency was over 5 days, but the guest speakers gave their presentations on Mon-Thurs (Friday was left for residents to finish their projects and give demos). I've reworded the section to make it clear that Pierre's articles summarize all of the presentations. Let me know what you think. |

I'm terribly, terribly sorry this is so late. :-(
Otherwise, hopefully it's ok. I won't be around this evening to address feedback, but I will check first thing tomorrow morning (around 06:00 EDT) and make any requested changes then.
