Same here. Both copies I ordered were not working on arrival. I tried to switch the batteries but they were really stuck in there (can’t easily remove them without bending/breaking), eventually got them out and replaced them but one of the copies still didn't work. Reached out to the creator but he just said try swapping the batteries. I still think the idea of the book is great, just wish the execution and support were better.

I'm an experienced machine learning engineer, software developer, and author of 2 patents in ML/AI. I'm an EGBC-licensed professional engineer and I have a BASc in Mechatronics Engineering and 10 years of overall experience in software development. I've developed and shipped end-to-end machine learning products and features across different platforms (web services, mobile apps, and embedded systems). I enjoy building practical machine learning systems from prototype to production that have a positive impact on people's lives.
Clear and concise write-up, thanks for posting. I especially appreciate the comparative graph at the end.
In practice, I tend to use "method 3" most of the time as I feel it has the best balance of complexity and practicality while still being able to deal with label noise.
