NLP4RE Tools: Classification, Overview, and Management
Tools constitute an essential contribution to natural language processing for requirements engineering (NLP4RE) research. They are executable instruments that make research usable and applicable in practice. In this chapter, we first introduce a systematic classification of NLP4RE tools to improve the understanding of their types and properties. Then, we extend an existing overview with a systematic summary of 126 NLP4RE tools published between April 2019 and June 2023 to ease reuse and evoluti…

"Mental wellbeing has plummeted in the UK further than in any comparable nation. How was this not headline news?" -- George Monbiot

"A vast amount of money has flushed through this country. Science has advanced by leaps and bounds; health and labour-saving technologies have greatly improved; we know exactly how to build good homes, treat sewage and improve democracy.
Instead (literally, in the case of our rivers) almost everything has gone to shit" -- George Monbiot

Neoliberal economics: The road to freedom or authoritarianism?
Nobel-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz's new book argues the road to tyranny is paved not by too much, but by too little government.

My toots bring all the neoliberals to the yard. I’m like, get out of my fucking yard, neoliberals.

L'idée des économistes du courant néo-libéral était simple: si chaque région agricole du monde se spécialise, globalement le monde va en profiter. Sauf que la spécialisation agricole nuit Š la biodiversité et Š la Nature, causant une catastrophe environnementale dont on risque de ne pas se relever.

From Poisson Observations to Fitted Negative Binomial Distribution
The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test has been widely used for testing whether a random sample comes from a specific distribution, possibly with estimated parameters. If the data come from a Poisson distribution, however, one can hardly tell that they do not come from a negative binomial distribution by running a KS test, even with a large sample size. In this paper, we rigorously justify that the KS test statistic converges to zero almost surely, as the sample size goes to infinity. To prove this r…

Fostering Inclusive Virtual Reality Environments: Discussing Strategies for Promoting Group Dynamics and Mitigating Harassment
The rapid evolution of social Virtual Reality (VR) platforms has significantly enhanced the way users interact and socialize in digital spaces, offering immersive experiences that closely mimic real-world interactions [1]. However, this technological advancement has brought new challenges, particularly in ensuring safety and preventing harassment [11]. Unlike traditional social media platforms, the immersive nature of social VR applications can intensify the impact of harassment, affecting user…
