I'll upload it when text post weekend is over
I hope I donโt come off as ignorant or preachy either. Iโm genuinely curious.
Iโm asking as an American who is currently studying linguistics. The Americas have really piqued my interest because of its linguistic diversity. I learned a little bit of Nahuatl and a few other Mesoamerican languages. I also plan on taking a course in Quechua in the fall.
One of my motivations for asking is just the fact that many of the countries in Latin America have had/still have a majority indigenous language-speaking population until recent history. I know Mexico was 60% indigenous language speakers during independence, Paraguay is 90% Guarani speaking, Peru was 39% indigenous language speaking in the 60s, and about 40% of Bolivia and Guatemala speak an indigenous language.
- Learnt usage of anki from yt videos
- Physical and breathing exercises not done because of rain
- Used up some hours posting year ending group photos on social media and watching other things
- Relapsed today as year ending treat.
A "principle" gives you a solid foundation for understanding that you can build more knowledge off of.
"At last I am in Colonia", I wrote in the local chat.
30 seconds later I was interdicted by a CDR. 10 seconds later my ship blew up with a lot of exploration data lost forever.
But I popped up in Colonia again, even though the last time I docked somewhere was about 10,000 ly away, so, I'm safe to continue my journey towards the core after a little engineering around.
At least I have that for me.
Learning Python. Having fun. One thing that's bugging me is how much code / time i have to write in order to debug and explore Django / DRF. I've been scouring the net for effective debugging workflows and programs. I've been tinkering with print; pretty print; dir; vars; q; pdb; ipdb; pudb; icecream; ptpyton; web-pdb;
I'm building an API with Django and DRF and its coming along. I feel like my debugging workflow is lacking. Often I end up outputting a variable and i get something like: request = <rest_framework.request.Request object at 0x7fd700db9be0> which is not really helpful. I want to dump that variable and ALL other variables under it so its in a nice format that allows me to visually explore it and discover all the nested goodness. However I end up having to write all these additional lines of code just to go spelunking. I feel like im missing some killer program that will help speed this up.
I've used pudb which is the ONLY program that i've discovered that actually allows me to explore the nested objects but its really clunky; crashes / freezes often and has keybindings that make me want to punch my monitor.
Someone save me!
Edit: As for exploring existing code bases I usually just grep the source files in Django and drop in pdb lines where i need to and break on those lines and then proceed to explore using the methods above. Does anyone have better approaches than this?
Machine Learning Street Talk Episode 3!!
In this episode of Machine Learning Street Talk, we chat about Large-scale Transfer Learning in Natural Language Processing. The Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer (T5) model from Google AI does an exhaustive survey of whatโs important for Transfer Learning in NLP and whatโs not. In this conversation, we go through the key takeaways of the paper, text-to-text input/output format, architecture choice, dataset size and composition, fine-tuning strategy, and how to best use more computation.
Beginning with these topics, we diverge into exciting ideas such as embodied cognition, meta-learning, and the measure of intelligence. We are still beginning our podcast journey and really appreciate any feedback from our listeners. Is the chat too technical? Do you prefer group discussions, interviewing experts, or chats between the three of us? Thanks for watching and if you havenโt already, Please Subscribe!
