I think I am able to develop end-to-end ML projects. However, my question was about building a career in this space, how to move from junior to senior, from senior to being an expert in the field.

Ask HN: How to Build a Career as Machine Learning Engineer?

Posted by __bee on Sunday June 17, 2018 @08:24AM
from the ask-hn dept.

I am a software engineer, who is involved in building (backend) data products (from building ETL, data-warehousing, scaling DB, .. etc).My question to those who work in big companies and applied research labs, do engineers need to have MSc/PhD in Artificial Intelligence/Data Science to grow in the company.I am not a data scientist, I am interested more into enabling Machine Learning in...

Good paper, I was wondering what is the state-of-art of using Neural Networks for Text Segmentation, Text Lemmatisation, Part-of-speech Tagging. Morphological approaches is dominant in this space.
Re:Show HN: 22 top US newspapers in an RSS OPML list on Monday June 11, 2018 @07:45AM (#17283455)
I found RSS feeds to be better alternative to read the news beyond the filtering bubble that our social media platforms create.

There was an interesting tool to monitor RSS list of newspapers[1] on HN sometime ago. I wish that this tool [2] is hosted somewhere to easily get notification on my slack without setting it up or managing it. With load of information we face everyday, the idea of monitoring RSS feeds through Slack interface is very interesting.

This is not the spirit that some of us want to see in HN. Efforts are always appreciated. The field is improving incrementally, in a very fast way.

How about SageMaker, Can we include it in this list. I played with SageMaker sometime ago and it helps you build a whole pipeline to host your models, in addition to host your notebook and bridge the gap between data scientists and data engineers.

Re:Adventures in Deleting Tweets on Sunday June 03, 2018 @03:06PM (#17221135)
Twitter API allows you to get 3200 old tweets. That's not enough to delete all the tweets. If you request your data, you can get all your tweets.

>> tweet_id is not enough

tweet_id is enough to do any interaction if you give read/write to the key that you are using in your Twitter API. I deleted my tweets (back to 2012).

Re:Adventures in Deleting Tweets on Sunday June 03, 2018 @12:13PM (#17220213)
You don't need all of this. All what you need is to request your data from twitter (Your Tweet archive > https://twitter.com/settings/account). Iterate through the csv file and use tweet_id to unlike, remove or do what you want through their Twitter API.

Source: I have done it before, and it took less time/work than what you have stated.

Most of researchers these days prototype using Python & R. However, when you put ML systems into productions, accuracy is not the only metric. Teams care about scalability and the speed of their system 1What do you use when you deploy ML in production ?.

Hi, Other than these companies [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/friends.html). Are there any companies switching to use Rust in production ?If yes, would you elaborate on why you choose Rust over other technologies ?

What kind of models do you use ?

Re:Snips Uses Rust to Build an Embedded Voice Assistant on Thursday February 22, 2018 @07:14AM (#16437006)
I think that they shifted dramatically from experimenting around `smart cities` to be an AI Startup focusing on building voice assistants.

On Techcrunch [0] > The team didn’t have a product or business model in mind. It experimented for a while, launching projects around smart cities, such as Tranquilien, a service that predicts how busy your train is going to be, or a smart empty parking spot prediction service.``
