Could anyone point me to some cogent, well-formed arguments for why censorship of social media platforms is a good idea? i.e. books, articles, etc? I have some thoughts but would like more perspective before fully forming an opinion. (not a

Seems as though it would go both ways. Scientists have career-advancing reasons to have their opinions and research--whether confirmed by evidence and peer reviewed or not--distributed by the media. And the media has incentive to amplify co

Somewhat off topic... but do you happen to know if the dendritic tree and its functional subunits in multi-compartment models can be treated mathematically as a multilayer network of simpler neurons? I've been wondering if dendritic ar

There are custom-built bots that use tools like CoreNLP. They tend to not use any framework. But, most NLP-powered bots are using machine learning based NLP APIs rather than CoreNLP. These tend to do two functions: intent determination and

Has Plaid changed their pricing model significantly over the past year? The way Plaid structures (structured?) their pricing is much friendlier than Yodlee in that there are no monthly minimums, setup costs, or term commitments. Simple volu

Wit seems to be heading towards more conversation-oriented (ie multi-message) approach to NLP which is something existing NLP toolsets don't make straightforward. For example, predicting the next action a bot should take based on conve

Wit.ai has been around for a while now, and used to charge a monthly fee for some private models. It was then acquired by Facebook and made free for all uses.

If this post is a response to anything, it is most similar to Google's recently announced Allo, at least from a product perspective. It's a little tough to figure out what Facebook's goal with the post was though since it&#x2

Founder team A with resources M accomplish X. Founder team B with resources (M+other accelerator) accomplish Y. If not (Y >> X) => Founder team B did something wrong or squandered the extra resources. That's a bad signal. This

From what I understand, the iPad has had substantial impact in how certain students with special needs are taught. It enables communication with some low functioning students who otherwise could not communicate due to impairments. Remember
