What is mostly unknown is a lipogram that tops any list of books that attain financial grandstanding (A Void notwithstanding), which brings a quick sadness.
0) Why is this better than MTurk's predefined workflows?
1) How much does it cost?? MTurk charges min(0.005, 10%) for each Human Intelligence Task.
2) How is quality checked???
3) People doing tasks generally report greater satisfaction and generally produce greater accuracy with a smaller topic shift (instead of doing NLP classification about everything at all times, first do topic A, then topic B). I bet you could train a simple classifier to group topics together
And, we have generics to prevent HIV infection, and we have promising new mRNA therapies, that were in development (with woefully little funding!) at U Penn, when this bet was being placed!
Perhaps this is unwarranted optimism in the specific case, but as a broader expression of hope in future scientific progress, the long bet wins.
Super interesting to see parallelism for reading logs this way, like for when you have too many logs for one core and too few for Spark
If you have no writing, all of your community's texts are fan fiction with limit on headcanon. People brought tape recorders to Bosnia in the 1930s, to try to see how oral folk music worked, and to see how much it changed day to day and year to year, and they found that they couldn't glue the same story together from day to day.
The shared civilization behind ancient Greece and ancient Northern India and ancient Britain had a system of oral-formulaic poetry, wherein descriptions are full of stock phrases like "wine-dark sea" or "rosy-fingered Dawn", like in today's "My name is X and I'm here to say" in more recent oral poetic forms.
2) Massive respect to NPR, for continuing to publish news in HTML with minimal markup, quick loading for anyone to view.
With the exception of cases involving perpetual motion, a model is not ordinarily required by the Office to demonstrate the operability of a device. If operability of a device is questioned, the applicant must establish it to the satisfaction of the examiner, but he or she may choose his or her own way of so doing.
If you have a separate phone that you use as a second factor for your 2FA, you have a convenient way of photodocumenting any screen that you see.
People shakily recording their TV doesn't win any awards, but is evidence enough in a serious pinch.
This is not talking with a friend, making pleasantries. This is at work, getting paid, by a company, to learn how low an offer they can make for it to be accepted.
Pretending that the conversation is anything except that, is serving the interests of companies who try to do exactly that.
Telling someone that what they perceive is not what it is, that what others can perceive is not what it is, is like flickering the lights on and off, and saying nothing is wrong, and asking why someone is so upset.
