Hi HN! About a year ago I bought A. Burkov's "The hundred-page machine learning book".

I thought it could be a good starting point for learning about transformers and GenAI.

But then I discovered here [1] the logic is far more complex, and a bit more specific (it also contains a lot of black magic in form of parameters to tune).

My impression is that a lot of 'plain vanilla' Machine Learning topics (ML) are faded away this last 2 years... so it makes sense to study ML today?

And if yes, in the next 2-5 years, what are the things a GenAI cannot do than ML will continue to be useful to?

Hi all, I am using WordPress from its inception in 2003. I am an open source fan, I am not a Stallman-guy but I always take a look at the licenses of the software I use.

The WPEngine/Wordpress.com litigation is becoming bigger and bigger every day passes.

I do not plan to extend WordPress in any way, BUT I plan to buy themes or specific plug-in in the future. I could use it for selling tiny web sites

Is safe to keep using WordPress?

The action against WPEngine seems quite aggressive to me, but I do not know anything about WPEngine (are they the devil? I do not know!).

What do you think? What do you plan to do in respect of WordPress usage in commercial and non-commercial context?
