Introducing FAIR: A federated approach to strengthen the WordPress ecosystem | We Love Open Source - All Things Open
Last week, at AltCtrl.org, a community gathering focused on the open web, a large group of contributors from the WordPress Ecosystem introduced FAIR, a new federated approach to plugin and... Read More

A new path forward for WordPress, and for the open web
Back in December, I wrote about the state of leadership in the WordPress ecosystem. I shared how too much power rests with one person, and how the lack of clear governance puts contributors and businesses alike in difficult positions. That post ended with a call: we need to lead. That wasn’t rhetorical. It was a ... Read more

Sony will mehr an PS5-Spieler verdienen
Sony fokussierte sich in der Vergangenheit sehr stark auf die reinen Stückzahlen der PlayStation: Sony hat jetzt eine neue PlayStation-Strategie. Nur ist das halt teuer, vor allem für die Kunden. S…

#WordWeavers 10 June: How many POV characters does your story have? Is that your preferred approach in general?
Usually 5 (or 4 - 6 really) depending on what I need.
At least I avoid switching POV mid-scene, head-hopping can be used as a tool if you're skilled enough, but I don't think I am.

You know it's coming, but you just never know. I was lucky to see Brian solo once, it was a magical show. RIP to this legend. I don't even know how to start with how much I love the Beach Boys. I've talked about it many times on here, how I really got into them in my teens, my parents had tapes (I wrote about my love for Wild Honey here:

Albums that made me
I heard about this great ‘albums that made me’ idea (that’s apparently been floating around other social media sites for a while now) via another Jake on Mastodon. So, big thanks …

Next stop in our NLP timeline is 2013, the introduction of low dimensional dense word vectors - so-called "word embeddings" - based on distributed semantics, as e.g. word2vec by Mikolov et al. from Google, which enabled representation learning on text.

Efficient Estimation of Word Representations in Vector Space
We propose two novel model architectures for computing continuous vector representations of words from very large data sets. The quality of these representations is measured in a word similarity task, and the results are compared to the previously best performing techniques based on different types of neural networks. We observe large improvements in accuracy at much lower computational cost, i.e. it takes less than a day to learn high quality word vectors from a 1.6 billion words data set. Fur…
