Thank you so much! I wanted to use this initially but my advisor didn't agree with storing unpublished papers on another server than the localhost/our servers. As a result I was using flylatex[1] which is nice but not as mature as

I think that depends. ArchLinux packages are almost just bash scripts. People can request fixes. I am sure when you first started programming you weren't an expert and that same logic applies to making packages. Multiple distributions

Do people really argue against frequentist statistics? I was under the impression that in bayesian statistics you basically are just weighting your distribution by a prior, usually because there is not enough data yet to use robust frequent

I think the syntax is pcrepattern[1] though I may very well be wrong. I definitely agree to the strength being that you know your editor. I suppose scripting would be hard to do without knowing the editor. I artificially applied vim as the

This is cool. There is already a command called rename[1] that can do some of this but this is much more interactive (and probably more intuitive for vi users). Is this scriptable? [1] http://linux.die.net/man/1/re

What do you use for the extraction of entities (if you don't mind saying)? I entered "The Cat in the Hat" is a good book. It didn't recognize any entities. Are you using an ontology for named entity resolution, or just e

I wouldn't barter any of my cats for this. It is just easier to exchange kittens for services.

Much better than my way. Formatting is nicer and I was using GNU specific flags for grep. :-(

Not sure if the author of this post is on or not but what did you mean when you say you use java for scripting?
191.
by blueblob 13y ago
I think this is kind of a false dichotomy. If you can find a job right out of highschool in the software industry, you may be able to find a place that has tuition reimbursement for you to take part time classes.

I agree with the complaint too but not only are many of these commands mac only but in addition to that, they are not less commonly used (ex vim). I feel like I could have gotten quite a few less commonly used tools by ls /usr&#x

I feel like XP wins this one. Too much text on the others.

This is really cool, that they are making parallelization easier but does anyone else feel like every time they add new syntax to java it becomes harder and harder to read?

I believe that people will start pushing attacks once the popularity of sytemd goes up. Why attack something that's not as widely used as sysvinit? I don't think that the argument was that it was scary to upgrade or there were no

Although I generally think most of the arguments in this article are bad, I do believe that having all purchases go through google can add value because even though I don't trust them with my data, I still trust them with my purchases.

I think it's a little different in that Dave Chappelle was on TV and people knew him because they saw him. Dong Nguyen is a developer and while he will still be famous it will be among a much smaller community (in my opinion).

Perhaps you can extend the F1-score[1] to be an F1,w-score that weights errors based on some measure of distance from correctness. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F1_score

The state of libreoffice is quite good in general, but for academic papers with references it tends to butcher them. I haven't tried wine for MS office, I run in a VM instead because someone else told me that their version of office di

This is cool but it seems a lot easier to get further than the game on the phone.

If you think about the way that humans learn, we get formal education that the computer doesn't get. We are getting corrected for our mistakes by other people. This work did not originally do that. The newer versions of it get correcte

Thanks both of you for these, very interesting. I am looking at this problem on my own at the moment and didn't find either on my own.

Could you explain in a little more detail? I was under the impression that the FCC would fix prices for common carriers, and therefore they would have to at least charge everyone in the same manner.

I am not sure. There seems to be evidence that they do not respond to a few petitions, even when they meet the 100K signatures (at least immediately)[1]. Since [1]'s release, it appears that they have responded to a few of the petition

Does anybody know if they are going to archive the content like opencourseware? It would be nice to be able to follow at your own pace.

I don't think they expect Facebook to license the name; I think they don't want to dilute their name. EDIT: Interestingly enough for me, I found it kind of repulsive that King.com trademarked "Candy" but I don't fin

I agree, and would also like to point out that these are not mutually exclusive. Lasers can help detect pedestrians that run in front of cars, while intercar communication can send information about cars "intentions" and additiona

I wish I had enough karma to upvote this (I tried). That's a brilliant idea and I plan to do the same. $17 sounds fair even for the paid version.
