Grant Ingersoll: The Numbers Don't Lie
I had the pleasure of talking with Grant Ingersoll. Grant is a search and NLP engineer, author of Taming Text and CTO at Lucidworks.
In today's episode, Grant and I discuss his book, Taming Text, how he got into Natural Language Processing (NLP), and discover what he thinks is the next big problem to be solved in text and language analysis.

Thanks to today's sponsor: Code School
Code School has recently launched a second course on SQL, The Sequel to SQL. In this course you'll learn the most important parts of the SQL language so you can create tables with constraints, use relationships, and write powerful join queries. Learn more at codeschool.com/developertea.
Thanks for listening, and until next time,
Enjoy your tea.
