Comment on My Python Code for the Netflix Prize

@tuananh I've got the dataset stored away, but I don't know if I'm legally allowed to post it. Would love if someone could produce proof one way or the other.

@viraj_shah I spent about 6 months working on the project before I had to stop to concentrate on my schoolwork (I was a senior in collge at the time). I think it would have been impossible to do this for myself without Cython. If it were to happen today, I would probably be writing in PyCuda, or with Numba, and it would be much, much, MUCH more succinct.

@alexbw Thanks for the info, great work!
