Why does it need to say in the article when it's plainly known?

Ah, apologies, I thought you were interested in horizontal transfer. Honestly, now I'm not sure what your question is: the herpes virus' dormancy, or it's DNA insertion. The DNA insertion is already well documented, as is the dormancy, although I have no idea as to the mechanisms for said dormancy. Well, thanks for the rabbit hole!

Tell that to prostate cancer researchers.
To say race "isn't important" is completely ignorant.

It's been a while since I played around with tensorflow, how difficult is it to deploy a model as a web service? I'm currently using azure and looking for other options (besides prediction.io).

Hi, I was hoping to get some feedback for my MVP.
I'm currently using a least-squares linear regression model trained with n-gram (unigrams) feature hashing, based on various social media metrics, with a heavy weight on sharing. It spits out a number between 1-50, with 25 being the most common.
Pretty much everything is automated with Huginn[0]: web scraping, data formatting, interaction with Azure ML[1], all of which is fed into a wordpress install using the pluginhunt[2] theme.
Let me know what you think!

Re:Show HN: Cinc – GitHub for recipes

Looks good. I think you should also consider adding the "keto" diet on there as well. Maybe meals < 10 net grams of carbs?

Though not relevant regarding resource consumption, this[0] German KFC ad is humorously awful. Another example would be the 'download button' roulette one comes across on various file sharing sites.

I'm ranking the sales based on their title. Azure makes it dead simple to use your trained model as a web service. I'm not familiar with aws, I just sort of fell into incorporating ml to my project, and since I'm in bizspark, everything that I'm doing is free. Another solution I'm considering is using prediction.io for the webservice.
Re:Ask HN: What tasks do you automate?

I'm aggregating flash sales and sending post requests to azure ml using huginn. It's a work in progress, but huginn seems to be working well. Also considering giving nifi a go, but the setup seems a bit over my head.
