Question of the day:

My Uncle is a lemon farmer in southern Arizona. To insure quality of his product before a freeze threat, he likes to determine the amount of "blackness" on the water vapor imagery satellite during the night before a possible freeze. These data can provide him crucial information to protect his crop. If you were to improve his ability to protect his crop by using one of the various forecast systems we have discussed in class, which two would you pick? Linear regression, logistic regression, decisions trees, regression tree or model tree. Defend your answer.

Answer: I hope your uncle dies. Now give me your failing grade and be done with it. Fuck this class.

    Tell the LEMON GROWER to grow something that is not equatorial.

    I think his nephew needs to grow a pair, that's for sure. He's a decent teacher but this exam was just absurd. We need a little more instruction as to what these various things mean because it doesn't any sense to minions like myself.

    By the way, my phone's buttons don't work anymore. Might try to throw it around the room to "wake it up" a bit. I think it took too many liquid hits since the first at the Raekwon concert.

    My phone was so busted, that's what caused me to get a new phone.
