Today we have a mixed bag of articles. On DZone Agile, we get a good post on how to describe accomplishments on a resume. If you have ever been on the hiring side of an interview, you know that geeks have a terribly difficult time with this. At Machine Learning Mastery, we have an excellent introduction to classification and regression trees for machine learning. These types of trees are great to learn as a first step into machine learning. Krebs on Security talks about Adobe patching another Flash Player Zero-Day threat.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
