Has anyone seen a similar comparison for medium-sized document classification tasks? I'd imagine LibLINEAR would perform far better for document classification than it does in these results.
Might be worth checking Rackspace's policies on hosting proxies - you want to make sure you're not responsible if users use your proxies for illegal activity.
That is rather disingenuous. While the Fed can make decisions outside the purview of the government, its power is derived from Congress, and its governors are appointed by the President and confirmed by Congress. It's certainly not an entirely private organization.
Might want to check out StarStreet (https://www.starstreet.com/), which uses real money. They frame it as a sports stock market, to avoid running afoul of online gambling laws.
While I agree that he should pay for a commercial plan if he has a commercial use case, having one provider is certainly not the way the market should work.
I would agree with your argument if the broadband market were actually competitive. The author has no legitimate options for broadband besides Comcast, meaning Comcast can do essentially anything it wants to him. That is not the way a capitalist economy should work.
#1 makes no sense. Facebook/Google/Zynga/etc pay hires more because they can no longer offer hires significant equity, like an early startup can. A startup is never going to beat an established company on pay, it's going to beat it on equity. If an offer of significant equity doesn't convince a potential developer to come onboard, perhaps the problem is that the company isn't promising enough.
I use it, but really only for the "intelligent snooze" feature, which decreases the length of the snooze each time until it starts refusing to snooze. If anyone knows of a simpler app with the same feature, I'd love to hear about it.
This is incredible. The lowest price advertised by Clickatell is $0.012/msg, and that price can only be reached by paying for 500,000 messages or more - that is, paying $6000 or more.
I use the default GMail filters - perhaps I'm just lucky and receive easily filtered spam. I get hundreds of spam messages per day, and none break through on the average day.
