Interesting. Looks like it just gives up on a Wingding post

Looks like it tries to assign a verb as a root if it possible can, otherwise it falls back to a noun
Sentences with noun roots tend to be poorly formed
This could be very good for filtering out false positives on expletives.

@ArtOfCode there are so many ways we could use this thing

@Andy Google's Parsey McParseface / SyntaxNet / TensorFlow

No way a Pi could come close to running this
 
@Undo ah, true
 
It makes my Pro unhappy
 
EC2 would make it, but barely

Nah, EC2 could run it fine. Would require a bigger instance, but still doable.
This is where SE could help with a big giant server

@Undo should it? Pretty sure I specified false positive in search there...
 
Looks like one or two of those have both fp and tp feedback
It filters to is_fp, not !is_tp
 
oh
well that makes sense
but also doesn't
 
?
 
Well, it makes sense that it maps "false positive" to is_fp, but it's a little odd that "false positive" results have tp's in them

Running 50k 'good' posts through Parsey. What could go wrong.
It takes them in 1024-sized blocks
 
spam, or still on the rec questions thing?
 
@ArtOfCode Rec questions
 
If you get the rec questions thing right, SOCVR will love you
 
well, mostly just getting a baseline for whatever I want to do next
Just question titles, unclosed and score >= 1
All things considered, Parsey isn't slow. It's not fast, but for what it does it works
 
3:49 PM
How long to process a single title?
 
6s for 1024
 
chars?
or titles?
 
Titles
 
that's not bad
 
So 0.005s/title
Yeah, faster than our regex checks
Of course, this is running on my machine
 
3:50 PM
If we had a system powerful enough to run this for Smokey, we could win spam-checking.
 
... maaaaybe
 
points at donation request above
That's powerful enough, right?
 
I'd hope so :P
 
Or did we just shoot right into "Nuke it from orbit" levels of overkill?
 
This is processor-and-mem bound
 
3:52 PM
so get a GTX 1080, make it use the GPU
and overload with as much RAM as you can fit
 
Really, 0.005s/title on my stock laptop from 2012 isn't bad at all
 
5 milliseconds? No, not bad at all.
 
This is using Parsey, right? I haven't looked at it yet.
Are you just outputting the trees still or have you made it to a next step?
 
I'd love to look at it, but I took one look at the installation requirements, and it needs Linux.
 
@ArtOfCode I'm running it on OS X... which is basically Linux, I guess

yeah, or OS X, but... mac, no

@ArtOfCode, that's one of my issues too. I've seen a lot of good Linux tools, but my work environment uses Windows so that what my stack is on both the work machine and home machines so that I can move between the two fairly easily.
 
Windows 10 supposedly has a Linux shell these days, but I can't find it.
And GitHub Bash doesn't have important stuff like sudo or apt-get

nor me
 
How'd you get those?

heh ;)
wait, site-wide?
 
no, per post
unfortunately

Q: Can I have some closed question data?

UndoI'm doing some experimentation with SyntaxNet (aka Parsey McParseface). You can follow my musings and result in Charcoal HQ if you so desire.
