There's a little project I've been meaning to start work on for quite some time now. I had the idea last December and I've just been kicking it around and trying to learn a few things that might help out. The machine learning stuff is part of that effort.
I've decided that the machine learning code can't get better until I apply it to my own problem. So I've decided to start the project. I'll be blogging about that for a little while and to help make it more real I've chosen a code name: Tahiti.
Why Tahiti?
Well I wanted the name to help keep me motivated. I have a history of picking up projects for a little bit, getting bored with them and then unceremoniously discarding them. The motivation for the project is to not only make something cool and useful, but to hopefully make something that can contribute to my bottom line (read: help pay off my student loans). Since I thought "Underpass" (as in that's where you'll be living if you don't figure out a way to make a few bucks) was a little too negative I decided to go with a vacation destination (as in succeed with this and that's where you'll be able to go).
I have the basic ideas behind version 1 and now I just need to get cracking on the code. I'm starting this as a solo project since it's easier for me to prototype this way. Now if I can just stay motivated...
Tahiti...
