But that's not RedHat "breaking free" as the parent comment sugggested. They're exactly where they were before, just with a slightly smaller parent company now.

No, I don't because I'm not an expert in those fields. To be clear, I'm not suggesting that they can't understand the subject matter or that they need to be experts in it, I'm just curious about how much technical d

It's not realistic in any scenario, that's just naive. Two main points to consider: 1. Most developed countries allow for some freedom of expression which rules out banning advertising outright. 2. Advertising is generally effec

"Automate everything" is a disingenuous claim. You're simply replacing a couple of lines of scikit-learn with a couple of lines of your CLI tool. There is pretty much no benefit to using this.
