I'm pivoting the RNN summarization code to an easier example - Machine translation. Easier in the sense of the dataset, which consists of much shorter en-de sentence pairs compared to the summarization task. I have some suspicion that the there is a bug or something in my code, so today, after …

Today we're gonna dip our fingers into the first generative NLP task - text summarization. We're gonna use the CNN/Daily Mail dataset as done in this paper. Let's get to it.
Data prep
I started by doing all the preprocessing of the files myself, but then found a the dataset …

Remember the trigonometric addition identity
If you're like me, you don't remember trig identities. If you're like me, you prefer rederiving stuff yourself. It's a perk of math that we replace memorization with derivation. Still, it takes time, and distracts you from what you're actually doing. Also, deriving trig identities isn't so easy without some …
read moreYet another retrospective
I expect another couple of days before I can submit a pull request. Today after some horrendous debugging I finally got some tangible progress. status, log, add-all and commit all seem to be working, perhaps even init (but still inconclusive). Still need to add push and pull. Then I need …

I reached a milestone today in my project to integrate git into the mobile version of logseq. Finally the git functions like add, status, init were working. I also realized that all the work and time that I put in so far was to writh this file system adapter that …

Where I am
It's been a couple more days now since my last post on the subject. I spent another 10 hours or so, and haven't gotten much further. Mostly I'm stuck with file system problems. In my last post I said I would use filesystem abstraction already present in …

Originally I intended to write about a physics problem I did today, but then this turned into more of a journal thing, so feel free to skip it.

After another week, a recurring thought that is troubling me is my productivity. I question myself again and …

Today I want to talk a bit about my PKM setup. This is mostly because the main thing I did today was study biology and prepare flashcards, so I might as well write about it.
I've been listening in the last month and a half to lectures from "the great …
