NFS is faster and it looks like a normal filesystem to the app so you don't need any special file I/O code.

I recommend Prodigy to label your examples and train a Spacy model. Prodigy is the best tool I have ever used for NLP labeling. Most likely starting with a blank model will work better, but you can try starting with one of Spacy's pre-

Are you using the pre-trained NER models or your own? If the former, I wouldn't expect it to work well on tweets since it wasn't trained on them.

by rpedela 8y ago
Yes, definitely. I have also found sentence segmentation to be important. I recommend using Stanford CoreNLP for sentence segmentation if they have a pre-trained model for your language. In my experience, their pre-trained models are the be

Yeah I would be curious to see if women who grow up playing ball sports also grow up to have good spatial skills.

I think we need another word for that. It isn't really the definition of "open office" that is usually discussed. Open office typically refers to 10s or 100s of people in the same room. <= 10 is something else because that

by rpedela 8y ago
Can you not put solar on rooftops? Is the technology for solar windows available yet?
162.
by rpedela 8y ago
The real problem with nuclear is that when it fails, it fails hard and damages the environment for decades if not more. Wind and solar have the smallest impact even when they fail as far as I am aware. It is about more than just CO2 reducti

The single payer solution assumes the status quo is the only possible way healthcare can be priced. However prices for the same procedure can vary wildly depending on the provider in the same area in US. In all other areas of commerce, pric

The article is largely correct. I do a lot of search and NLP work.

Depends on the context such as filenames on Mac which you link. There are many cases where doing it at the storage layer makes sense. Are you indexing text for search? Normalize. Do you want to de-duplicate textual data and store it in a da

Google can sorta already do #2 and what you are asking for is very hard in it's entirety. Wolfram Alpha is a great prototype but it also shows how hard it is to do in the general case. When Wolfram works it is amazing, but it often doe

Microsoft's behavior changed and they stopped trying to own every single niche market within the software field by any means necessary. I think that allowed for an opening by other players in addition to the tech trends you mentioned.

Often the language is chosen because it is the only option like JS for web, or it is the best option for the project. For example, you are doing physics and you need a general purpose language that is easy to write and handles gigantic numb

When I say minimize rendering, I don't mean skipping frames although it could mean that. During a single frame, 3d engines try to minimize the number of triangles, textures, etc that need to be rendered in that frame. Also some non-rea

by rpedela 8y ago
Correct, not directly. My point is that the 3D engine feel seems to have some sort of wider appeal even if you haven't done 3D engine development. It was direct for me because I am in that small slice. Like I said, this part is very su

Yes, I am aware Vue is more similar to React than the others. I probably shouldn't have said anything about Vue. Since I did, here we go. There is another component to React which I didn't mention that gets inspiration from the 3D

by rpedela 8y ago
React's model is very similar to how 3D applications work at a high-level. There is a render loop that is either on-demand or continuous, the latter is more common in 3D. During each iteration, input is collected, background processes

Okay, do you have a source? Regardless how is getting unsolicited financial mail, identity theft? I really don't understand. Am I missing something?

Including social security numbers and other unique identifiers?

I understand the frustration but how is that identity theft?

Can you explain what you mean by "multiple sort parameters" because it looks like you can to me in ES [1]. There is a well maintained LTR plugin for ES. Honestly Solr and ES are more similar than different. There are a few things

It is true that the US pays for a significant portion of drug R&D for the world. However the vast majority of that R&D is funded by the NIH which in turn is funded by U.S. taxpayers. It is a myth that it is the pharma companies who

In the early days, that is actually okay. Unless you did a large marketing campaign (you shouldn't), the number of people who never come back because of your crappy MVP will be small. And the group will likely be small enough where you

Can you define mind? It is well known that lithium can be used to treat some mental disorders. It must be doing something to the brain in order to have that effect. In my view, that literally means lithium is mind-altering.

I have found pre-trained models for language detection and Wikipedia word embeddings useful. Everything else I have to train from scratch. I have successfully done NER on search keywords where there were many examples of misspelled words or
