Usually a seller doesn't add VAT to B2B invoices into the EU, VAT is accounted for by the purchaser under the 'reverse charge' system. B2C is different, they would need to charge the local VAT rate in each member state. I suspect they simply haven't gotten around to supporting it yet.
It depends on your regex engine. The author here is concatenating all of the paths into a single pattern, an automata based engine would ideally compile away the disjunction and offer performance linear with the input path length.
Neat idea! It looks like the NLTK POS tagger is having trouble here so might limit your recall when used as a filter.
Instead I wonder if it would be better to use the context of each token to mine significant ngrams from the rest of Shakespeare's work and filter for rhymes with a phoenetic hash like Metaphone.
Interesting thought, thanks! I was thinking an approach like that would be good for non-dictionary words.
One of the things I didn't go in detail in is the issue where there are multiple pronunciations for a word - I was thinking that the way to address that would be to compare pronunciations between lines, but looking at metaphones across Shakespeare's work overall might also help build a solution to that.
They don't do this to help you get a job. Recruiters insist on an editable version so they can remove your contact details and insert their letterhead. This makes it harder for their clients to contact you directly and cut out their fee.
I'm sure that happens sometimes but I've seen lots of CVs coming from recruiters which had new sections crafted by the recruiters themselves like a summary of why I should care about that person, etc. They depend on me hiring that person to get their fee so I expect them to provide me more than the CV itself.
Recruiter here. Another bigger reason for inserting letterhead is so when the company finds the résumé in their DB 6 months later and revisits the candidate, the manager knows the source of hire (and the possibility of a fee).
This was just a private API that presumably Google no longer uses.
I wonder if this is related to the new Chrome spelling suggest feature (http://mashable.com/2013/03/29/chrome-spell-check/), and if that means there's a new private undocumented API for people to play with.
Unfortunately no. Due to his recent significant fame increase, he's in high demand and his schedule clashes with this months event. I have it on good authority that he is definitely returning next month.
Until then, you're stuck with my angry ramblings during talks.
Feed readers can send If-Modified-Since or If-None-Match as part of the request so the server only sends back the full feed if there's something new (Otherwise a 304 Not Modified)
Assuming that the feed implementer bothered... many news CMSs don't bother. The world of RSS is a horrorshow of standards noncompliance; Atom only somewhat better. (My experience is, admittedly,a couple of years out of date, but feed generation tends to be a minimum spend item for news organisations.)
