Rotten Tomatoes recently disabled user reviews for movies before they're released. Maybe it's time for Goodreads to do the same.

That's the thing though, 忘れちゃ is a completely different, unrelated form that means 忘れて+は. So yes, this split is in fact incorrect and if it wasn't past tense, but dictionary form 忘れちゃう, the result would be even worse with う being

It's not a matter of benchmarks really. It's more of a matter of MeCab simply not knowing that certain grammar exists. For example 〜ちゃった for 〜てしまった is a pretty common form. MeCab doesn't understand the word 忘れちゃった because it

You can do it for dictionary words with a relatively high degree of accuracy, but it's very hard. I have developed the most accurate tokenizer that currently exists [1], but there are still sentences where it fails. Words written in hi

What a great plan! Not improving public transportation. Not taxing people who own private cars. Taxing cars who serve dozens passengers a day! Guess what, if these people weren't using Uber, each of them would be driving their own car.

When will religious anti-science channels get demonetised? Creationism is just as bad as anti-vax, except way more people believe in it.

Venice is actually perfect for making it hard to reach. Give inhabitants of the island a special permit that allows them to use the only bridge freely. Everyone else has to obtain the permit (which is a highly bureaucratic procedure) or lit

This seems like optimal usage of resources, reusing the unneeded parts of the dead animal to create something edible. This should be celebrated, and it's something humanity has done for centuries.

I'm not convinced that Turing completeness is needed for real functionality. Can you name a "practical" function that is computable but not primitive recursive? Just because you can theoretically compute Ackermann function do

Yes, I have personally designed several guaranteed-to-halt DSLs for the exact reason that allowing Turing completeness where it's not needed is a bad idea. If you have a scripting language in another software, you don't want to al

And that's a bad thing. It means not only that some sed programs never complete, but it's not even possible to tell whether any given sed program hangs or not. Not something you want from a text substitution utility.

Russian here, I say "ouch" because it sounds way cooler than Russian "ay-ay-ay" and contrary to popular belief it's possible to say whatever you want unless the pain is truly unbearable.
