15.570 - 12/7 Announcements

Hi all,

A few announcements:

Office Hours
Jeremy and I will be hosting office hours tomorrow (Friday) morning from 9am-11am in room E62-262.

Registration status
Please be sure to check your registration status for the course on Websis. If you are not officially in the course on your registration and haven't been working with Heather in the registrar's office to fix it, please let me know. Specific section assignment is not important, we're taking care of that internally.

High Note Data Questions
We've received a number of questions regarding specifics on how to treat outliers and negative values in the high note data. In general, we encourage you to clean the data as you see fit. This is real world data, and as such there may be some values that haven't been sanitized. We will continue to answer specific questions as best we can, and please continue to reach out, but be sure to state your data cleaning assumptions in your reports so we can follow your decisions.

Reminder: Optional presentation on Professor Aral's research, Tuesday 12/12, 11:30AM-12:30PM, E62-276
As Jen mentioned yesterday, lunch (Otto's pizza) will be provided.

And in case Sinan's revelation of Google's location tracking creeped you out, here's how to turn it off:
