Okanagan (provincial electoral district)

Okanagan was a provincial electoral district in the Canadian province of British Columbia beginning with the election of 1903 and lasting only until the election of 1912, after which it was succeeded by North Okanagan and South Okanagan. The riding was originally part of the Yale riding until 1890. When that riding was first broken up the Okanagan was in Yale-East (1894–1900).

gollark: As I said, I am doing "semantic search". Instead of: page → tokenizer → stemmer → inverted index insert and query → tokenizer → stemmer → inverted index lookup it does page → tokenizer → magic neural network → store vector and query → tokenizer → magic neural network → compute cosine similarity of query and all sentence vectors.

gollark: minoteaur-py is to incorporate:- slightly tweaked data model- cooler search- worse performance

gollark: Surprisingly, no.

gollark: Yes, twice.

gollark: This may be fixed in minoteaur-py.
