Thanks for this, I'll have to take a look at FastText. I've been using word2vec before turning it into a matrix and running it through a CNN. I based it off of Yoon Kim's[0] work. …

I'm not sure how these are a mystery. Wages aren't going up because there is nothing forcing them to go up. The upper class just takes their rents and insists paying more wages wou…

If it wasn't an automated system, they would have the cost of someone going through everything. Do you really doubt that this is constantly happening and people are paying? Just lo…

Not like default thermostats are free either, and a lot of them have mind-blowingly bad UX. "Just hold down these 4 buttons at once while hitting these two up arrows to adjust the …

I've been using VS Code and WLS to execute the Ubuntu version of Rust from the bash console in VS Code. I'm not sure if this is a good method or not... but it feels very natural.

Where do they find these web devs? Any sane framework just gets rid of this problem for you with almost no effort.
