Good day! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with SEO?

I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good results.
If you know of any please share. Thanks!

Comment on LTE: Labeling data for machine learning by Zhenya

I think parts of labeling could be outsourced, but with much caution. First the data scientist working on the problem needs to understand the data thoroughly, and then the domain experts need to label it. Some very simple parts could be then be outsourced to someone you know you can rely on.
Cool about prodi.gy, thanks for the link!

I agree with you: I would never outsource labeling. Prodi.gy is a potential solution (but the guys from Spacy). We use a simple Excel tool with green and red buttons (for binary classification) to keep the cognitive load as low as possible.

Thanks for the additional input 🙂

Great point about Albany being a state capital, maybe that makes Times Union lean more toward an urban than suburban newspaper.

I went to high school in Niskayuna, NY, a suburb of Schenectady and part of the New York Capital District. Times Union was our “local” paper! So I would say that Times Union covers both the urban area of Albany, but also the surrounding suburbs (Capital District has a population of a couple million, I think). Also, Albany being the capital of NY state, politics (state-level) probably plays a bigger role there than in the other sample newspapers.
