Show HN: Spam classifier in Go using Naive Bayes (github.com)

12 (13?) years ago I had also written a Naïve Bayes classifier in Perl https://github.com/cipherself/NaiveBayes_perl

IIRC, next thing on my TODO list was to add vectorization. Also (like OP) it uses log probabilities to avoid floating-point underflow.

Could you put a license on it so we know how it can be used?

Bayesian spam classification is or soon will be destroyed by LLM spam. Yuck.

I remember during the 10s, there was this wave of frenzied almost cult-like talk of Bayes among the engineer types. Does anyone remember it? You had folks arguing Bayes was the ultimate stats tool, that it was superior to frequentist tools, etc. Some guy called Yudowsky was a heavy supporter of it too.
