Lavoro di cui si è parlato circa di due settimane fa, ma ho notato solamente oggi. Mi sembra non sia stato segnalato in lista, chiedo venia in caso contrario. Succo del lavoro: “A census data set is a set of geographical polygons, you know, so like the outline of some city district and a number of people in there,” says James Gill, a Facebook engineer who worked on the project. “What we do is we find locations of buildings. To a good approximation, people live in buildings, and not in fields and forest and mountains.
