I completely agree that they are misinformed. A huge number of them think Africa is one big country.
And that the wars they read or see on the news is happening all across Africa. It really upsets me.
Am from Zambia and we have never experienced any war (yes not even civil war) its a beautiful, peaceful country. The only thing westerns know about Zambia is the Victoria Falls, because it was named after Queen Victoria. The rest is not important.
Great article man. Am always super exited when i find articles that talk about information retrieval systems. I have a lot of questions for you. Been working on a search engine project www.cognifly.com for a year and its inverted index is still very small. Like 4gig now. So is ok if i send you an email?
I like VsCode especially for js css and html5 stuff. The problem I have with it is that it starts to lag when my codebase gets larger eg above 600 lines. Thats the reason why I switch to Atom. I think Atom is the best free text editor.
I'm having almost 34k lines of code for some html file, over 6mb (yes, there is a specific purpose for such a large html file for particular processing) and it works flawlessly in VS Code. I remember searching for text editor that would handle the file nicely and allow working with it. Opening that file in the first VS Code release was a pleasant surprise that performance was good.
If I remember correctly I tried Atom before VSCode as I thought: well, that's a nice looking editor. But oh, it was just unusable for such a large file.
How is a 6 MB file, with only 34,000 lines, considered "large" these days?
Smartphones from a couple of years ago already had multi-core, multi-GHz processors, and 2 GB or more of RAM. A 6 MB file would fit into memory well over a hundred times, even assuming lots of overhead.
Any moderately reasonable text editor should be able to handle a file of that size with total ease, at least for the basic operations.
I agree that it is not and was surprised that I had to search for a text editor that would handle that file nicely, provide syntax highlighting and allow me to do some regex search/replace.
I fell in love with python because it was clean and easy to work with. Like most developers, I used to use c when I needed a performance boast. Then I got fade up and decided to learn a new language that could give me the feel of python and the performance of c. Two languages from a list of 10 passed the above criteria Go and Rust. Java did not even make the list because I Don't use languages that are owned by evil empire's(Oracle).
I went with Go because it was easy to use and understand. I could read other people's code easily( Even with a large code base, I have never found myself scratching my head trying to figure out my own code does), could set up my workspace in less than a minute and all the text editors I used (sublime, Atom, Vim) supported it. I Don't really care about the fancy IDE's. Just syntax highlighting and code completion is good for me.
I started learning go on September 2015. And I have managed to implement the porter stemmer algorithm and an inverted index in it. Miss generics but LOVE interfaces. The fact that any concrete type that implements method 1 satisfies interface 8 is awesome. You can easily reuse code from different package without changing anything.
This is exactly what I need for my deep learning research. Iv been abusing my raspberry pi 2 with heavy neuro nets. Shame about the prise though. I will wait for the price to drop(hopefully).
