Thank you for bringing this up. I had glossed over this fact. I think a lot of food wastage is also because of regulations around stale food. In my head the solution to solve this at scale is 2 fold 1.To help large food chains/supermar

Am not sure. Pretty much agriculture is eating away vast tracts of forests. Be it in Brazil, India or elsewhere. Now is all agriculture done for food. Not really. Palm oil is an example with a ton of industrial and cosmetic use.

Man, this is a bummer. As much as I hate the concept of Soylent as food, I see it as the only way to scale food production for the growing population, without killing our planet. The other options are still in the labs. Artificial tissues f

Well price trumps everything in every part of the world, for the average person. That said, there are millions of Indians who plunk down exorbitant prices for cars, TVs, Jewellery. However, what I've noticed is that very few Indians va

"other than my IDE, since I do have those memorized". How do you do this ? I use Xcode and Intellij and it's a PITA to remember the function key mappings while switching between the two. That said I'm not sure how this c

Valid point. My initial thought was to summarise the email that the sender sends out, tailored to the receiver's context, rather than summarising at the receiver's end. I'm still open to that thought but by and large, based o

Thank you. So what you are saying is that let people push content/send email to some staging area, and you'll pull from there whenever you want. I guess I see it the same way, I see the app as the staging zone, it sends me notific

Personally, dealing with emails on the phone has been fraught with difficulties. I use Inbox. Yet, I get notified for emails that I don’t want to read. Some of the emails are so long and boring, that I don't read them and miss some imp

I presume they won't tell you the wait time upfront. In such a case, calling the cable company will be my secondary activity on a headset while watching a movie or something of that sort. I'm just saying that I'll be prepared

I agree with most of what is said here. What has personally helped me is to know the limits of patience and to walk out of the scenario as soon as those limits cross. In the quoted instance, I would have never waited for 35 minutes on the c

Cannot allude to this more. Building an audience is the toughest part of any business. Not just SasS or PH. People get swayed by perceived overnight successes and attempt to replicate the same.

Can't echo this more. The Scala Functional programming course on Coursera is another such example. I am yet to finish the assignments, 2 months after enrolling. OTOH, the deep learning course from Udacity was a cakewalk in comparison.

The inability to search my own tweets is a huge annoyance because I use retweets and likes as a log of content that I like and admire.

Thanks for pointing this out. We missed this during our comparison studies.

Just going by the GitHub readme and the corresponding paper this tool does not generate new words, popularly known as the abstraction summary. This is doing an extraction task followed by a syntactic compression task. Pages 3,4 of the paper

Well this code is in Scala, not Java. Python doesn't have a library like the Stanford Datetime parser that can convert a phrase such as 'day after tomorrow' to the actual date. I understand that Writing Java is hard simply be

Sometimes it makes sense to make a big bet on building some complex software that might take months or years to build, with lots of moving parts, but once complete solves a big problem. That is software that is "hard tech". If and

If we equate today's car buyer with the self-driving car buyer, I agree with this statement, with one caveat, speed. Speed and the resulting driving safety at that speed will be a major deciding factor for the self-driving car buyer. T

Yep language generation is the hard part. What you have said is a stepping stone in that direction. Any task involving sequences is very hard today. How to generate these sequences ? Tops we can generate limited phrases, what Google smart r

This is what the NLP community would call 'abstractive summary'. It fundamentally requires generating new sentences - which is an excruciatingly impossible task for current AI tech, at least as far as my understanding goes. The cl

I would love to use this kind of tool and look for gotchas or key hidden elements in legal documents. It's not exactly summarisation, but very useful. Something like bubbling up the important elements of the fine print.

One such example is the Scala List data structure. It's fundamentally a linked list but the built in routines for Lists such as zip, reduceLeft, map make it easier to transform List elements. By easier I mean, you write less code to do

Some of the practical aspects that favour functional programming lies in parallelism, not concurrent programming. Parallelism as in multi threading. It's an order of magnitude easier to write parallel programs in Scala than in Java. I
