Hey #NLProc folks! I'll be at #emnlp2020 these days, ping me on Rocket chat or Gather (a.k.a. Zelda). We can discuss about one of the greatest dilemmas of 2020: why BERT?

Ebbravo!
Very proud of @marcodeltredici who today successfully defended his PhD thesis. The thesis investigates meaning variation and change in online social communities and exploits sociolinguistic information to improve the performance of NLP models. Congratulations, Dr. Del Tredici!

Its quite chilling that a lot of our #NLProc tools make use of Wikipedia in one way or another...
Yep. Wikipedia is a genuine huge barrier to women in public—most people’s first impression of someone is a Wikipedia page. Women are edited harshly, not contributed to, overlooked or deleted. You can help out by editing, adding and pushing back as much as possible.
