Existen muchos
recursos para comenzar a aprender Machine Learning. Sin embargo, suele ser
complicado elegir uno que realmente se adapte a nuestro perfil, y que nos
permita aprender de forma coherente y concisa los principios de Machine
Learning. Si trabajas con tecnologías Microsoft o eres un programador .Net,
este curso es para ti.
Durante este
curso veremos los conceptos principales que explican el estado actual de
Machine Learning; y aprenderemos utilizando ML.NET (Machine Learning.Net ).
ML.Net es un conjunto de herramientas que ha alcanzado de forma oficial su
versión Release y que será la base del aprendizaje de Machine Learning. Veremos
escenarios para aprendizaje supervisado y no supervisado, escenarios de
análisis de sentimientos de texto, escenarios de integración con otras
tecnologías de ML, como ONNX o TensorFlow, y mucho más.
Cuando termines el curso, estoy 100% convencido que podrás aplicar estos conocimientos para encontrar los mejores escenarios de ML en tus investigaciones o tu trabajo del día a día.
Y por cierto, tengo algunos cupones de descuento, si los quieres contáctame! Y puedes revisar algunos de mis posts de Machine Learning.Net aquí.
As it turns out that I have been fortunate to participate, once again, in Interface: the podcast that my friend Rodrigo Diaz Concha manages and coordinates (link). This time, I’ve talked about one of the coolest preview products we have in Azure: Azure Notebooks.
This product
sounds weird for a .Net Developers, however, the power, productivity, and
collaboration capabilities that Jupyter notebooks provide are something the
Python community has long taken advantage of.
I’d better leave the podcast link and hope you enjoy it (remember, is in Spanish):

A couple of days ago, my friend Luca (@lucavgobbi) told me about PiHole: A Network-wide Ad Blocking. Even better, let me copy the official description from their GitHub repo:
The Pi-hole® is a DNS sinkhole that protects your devices from unwanted content, without installing any client-side software.
Free: open source software which helps ensure you are the sole person in control of your privacy
I setup this in an extra Raspberry Pi 3 that I have at home, and keep it running for the last couple of days. I was in shock when I realized that aprox 30% of my internet traffic is … not so good.
PiHole dashboard
One of the cool features of PiHole, os that you can work with their logs. So I decided to apply some very powerful Machine Learning algorithms to detects anomalies and strange behaviors.
In the meantime, I decided to read the logs, and make some filters just using Excel. And I found a lot of very strange urls. Today I’ll share some of the Microsoft ones.
So, in example, do you know what does this set of urls have in common?
location-inference-westus.cloudapp.net
licensing.mp.microsoft.com
watson.telemetry.microsoft.com
…
They are all Microsoft endpoints ! It seems that Windows 10 is sending a lot of diagnostic and other type of data. Lucky for us, most of this endpoints are well explained for each one of the Windows 10 versions. So, in example, I don’t use a lot of UWP apps, and it seems to me that the localization service does not need to send a lot of information, from a FIXED PC.
I decided to add some of this domains to the blacklist of domains and so far, so good. Windows is still working amazing, I enabled some of the urls so I can use also Visual Studio and Azure DevOps, and my user experience is still the same (with 30% less of traffic!)
So, I may want to also write about some domains I found other chatty devices uses like my Amazon Alexa, my Roku, and more … maybe in the next post! And kudos to the PiHole team!
In my last post I share some lines of code which allowed me to run some of the face recognition demos 6 times faster. I added a Frames per Second (FPS) feature in my samples. Later, thinking about performance, I realize that I don’t need to work with a full HD picture (1920 x 1080), so I added some code to resize the photo before the face detection process.
However, while I was coding arond this solution I also realized that I may want to initialize my camera to start in a lower resolution. So, I searched online on how to do this with OpenCV and I found 3 beautiful lines of code.
open camera with opencv with lower resolution
So, I manage to improve my processing code from 20FPS to +30FPS … which is very good ! Later on this posts I’ll try to do some similar FPS tests on a smaller device and I’ll see and share how this works.
Quick post today. And a memory backup one. I just spend 30 minutes trying to install a desktop UI in a clean lite RaspberryPi install. And I missed and missed again the command.
The right command is
sudo apt install raspberrypi-ui-mods
And that’s it. Now is here, so I can search me and find the solution.
Context: I use the [Raspbian Buster Lite] distro for the Raspberry Pi. In 10 minutes I got the SSH enabled so I can perform most of my operations remotely from my computer.
After an amazing weekend, where I split my time supporting 2 different hackathons, today big news is the announcement of the new Raspberry Pi 4.
Raspberry Pi 4 is here! A tiny, dual-display desktop computer, with three RAM variants to choose from, and all the hackability you know and love. On sale now from the familiar price of $35: https://t.co/d9iwVidexm#RaspberryPi4pic.twitter.com/4fll4gx1Ax
64-bit Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A72 processor, with a core clock speed of 1.5GHz
1GB, 2GB or 4GB of RAM
2 4K HDMI displays
USB 3
Bluetooth 5
starting price at $35
and much more !
I won’t get deep in details, I prefer to share some really good reviews, later i this post. Now is time to wait until the 4GB model is available in Canada and I’ll do some update on my Custom Vision docker and Machine Learning performance posts with the new device!
