    I've built and worked on this exact problem before at bigtech, startup and personal projects. Regex works well if you have a very limited set of sender and recipient accounts that …

    I worked on something like this more than a decade ago back when bayesian classifiers were SOTA for sentiment analysis. It's relatively easy to use an existing model to bootstrap a…

    The CMU Database Groups YouTube channel has a very good material on this. I highly recommend the Intro to Database Systems videos: https://www.youtube.com/c/CMUDatabaseGroup/playli…

    It's worth noting that La Gomera is quite far from the more western islands: Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Visitors staying on those islands might need to plan their L…

    I've never used Wise because it doesn't serve my country. In fact there's no shortage of remittance services besides Wise. The main problem is that the KYC and risk checks run by e…
