It's all fun and games until someone gets kidnapped.
There's also the situation where a lot of American towns/cities aren't so crowded that you can walk everywhere. And not everywhere in America is there good public transportation.

But statistically, how often does that happen? Is it enough to be seriously worried about?

I don't think it's an issue of being crowded. I think it's an issue of how we design our cities. We assume everyone will have a car, so those that don't have a car (kids) have less independence. A lot of Europe was built before cars existed, so they don't assume that everyone will have their own car.
There are 115 abductions of children by strangers in an average year, in the US.
Traffic accidents are a much, much more prevalent threat.
(There are 800,000 children reported missing each year. 90% have misunderstood directions or ran away on their own initiative. 9% are kidnapped by a family member in a custody dispute.

First off, that's by design. Car-centric infrastructure planning really did a number on the American public. The damages ended up being far worse than just economic.
Second, that's an understatement of the century. Public transportation is pretty much non-existent in most of US. It's good in exactly 1 city (NY), and probably decent in another 2 or 3.
I bet more parents beat their kids to death each year than strangers kidnapping children. Based on that parents should not be allowed to get close to their children.
I think he's more upset with the fact that it doesn't quite live up to the title it holds, and is disappointed it's just a list of deep learning courses most people (who have bothered to look into learning about ml) know about already.

Did you not read the article?
>Lovecruft told CNNMoney she had been willing to meet the FBI with her attorney present. But Rosenfeld was told by agents that they would circumvent him and approach Lovecruft directly.
Never talk to a cop or fed without a lawyer present if you are being questioned for anything other than a traffic ticket or you were just the victim of a crime. Even then, be careful what you say. They are not there for your benefit.
Most interested parties here are not merely users but developers. Potential contributors. Or if anything, merely curious about the inner workings.
That represents a large percentage, if not the overwhelming majority of users of HN. I'm surprised this question still comes up. It's a bit like when people ask on /r/gamedev showcases "why should I care what engine your game is built in?".
