Building My First Deep Learning Machine

First of all, myth busted: the 1080 Ti can run minesweeper effortlessly. The machine did restart itself once for no obvious reasons after the proprietary GPU driver was installed. Back to the topic… Here is some R code for fitting a "wide and deep" classification model with Tensorflow and Tensorflow Estimators API. The model is fundamentally a direct combination of a linear model and a DNN model. The synthetic data has 1 million observations, 100 features (20 being useful) and is generated by my R package msaenet.
