TASK DEFINITION: Given a document, an entity and its sentiment towards the entity, verify if it is the correct sentiment towards the entity. Answer should be yes or no. Note that URLs in the text have been replaced with [Link].
PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ryan Lewis is Negative . Ryan Lewis   the famed producer known for  his  talents alongside breakout musician and independent hip-hop artist  Macklemore  has lived a life in the limelight. From winning a Grammy for Best Rap Album of 2014  to being involved in handfuls of tangential creative endeavors and collaborative projects   Lewis  has seemingly lived two lives:  his  own  and the perception created as a resultâacross news outlets  industry blogs  and social media channels  each telling  his  story from their own angle and perspective.
 Lewis   who has a track record of applying technology and an understanding of the role it can play in creating public conversations  saw this as an opportunity to answer that tough question: âWhatâs at the heart of what everyone is saying about a topic or a person online?â
And  he âs decided to leverage blockchain technology to do it  with a handful of early investors already on board and an ICO (Initial Coin Offering) planned for this year.
âAs soon as this idea started to marinate  I began to form a team to move the vision forward â said  Lewis   talking about  his  deliberate shift from time spent on music to balance time in the tech scene. âIâve always had an interest in tech  just by the nature of the projects Iâve been involved in over the past decade. And one of the biggest lessons Iâve learned as a music producer is that a great producer knows what theyâre good at and what theyâre not good at. As I began to realize there could be a better way to more accurately and objectively organize stories on the Internet  I knew I needed a team.â
The first person  Lewis  shared his idea with was longtime collaborator and close friend  Macklemore  who immediately saw the value and came on board as the first investor and company advisor.  Ryan  then worked closely with Josh Karp and Scott Lewis  early creative partners  to continue articulating the vision. After achieving initial milestones   Ryan  connected with current tech partner  RJ Smith  a 20-year technology veteran with a unique background pioneering transformational initiatives inside the US government.
âThese were problems I was already working on â said Smith. âTo meet another person with a ton of talent and a different set of skills  but with a shared passion  was invaluable. The challenges in a new start are humbling  and it was exciting to join forces with  Ryan  and other team members to execute this huge vision together.â

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Carmelo Anthony is Positive . A complicated era is over.  Carmelo Anthony  finally escaped New York.
After months of posturing and misdirection regarding  his  future   the Knicks  agreed to ship the greatest Knick since Patrick Ewing to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Doug McDermott  Enes Kanter and a 2018 second-round pick  a source confirmed Saturday.
Two role players is a small haul for a player of Anthonyâs stature and scoring prowess  but  the Knicks  were never getting a comparable return. Both sides just needed to move on after a long and contentious divorce period.
 Carmelo Anthony  is getting  his  wish and will be leaving  the Knicks  just days before start of training camp.
During and after Phil Jacksonâs tenure   the Knicks  made it known that  Anthony  was no longer part of  their  plans. But  they  couldnât agree to a deal to satisfy Anthonyâs desire of playing for the Rockets  setting in motion fears that the small forward would make it to another  Knicks  training camp.
 Knicks  reach out to Cavs about a potential  Carmelo Anthony  trade
 He  didnât want that.
Less than two weeks ago  according to a source   Anthony  opened up  his  options to three destinations â including the Rockets â to pressure  the Knicks  to get a deal done before having to attend Media Day in New York on Monday. As the Daily News first reported   the Knicks  reached out to the Cavs recently with the understanding that  Anthony  would waive  his  no-trade clause to join buddy LeBron James. However  the Cavs were unwilling to part with Tristan Thompson or Kevin Love.
The Thunder were also on  Anthony âs list  and there is an important connection: Assistant GM Troy Weaver formerly coached  Anthony  at Syracuse  and the two remain close. Beyond that  the Thunder will boast a trio (Anthony  Russell Westbrook  Paul George) as lethal offensively as any in the NBA. To complete the deal   Anthony  not only had to waive  his  no-trade clause   he  sacrificed a trade kicker worth $8.1 million.  He  leaves the biggest NBA market for one of the smallest  an ironic move considering  he  pushed so hard to travel the opposite way six years ago for  his  trade to the Knicks. New York is the city that never sleeps and Oklahoma Cityâs stores all close by 6 p.m. But digital media has changed the landscape such that stars can get exposure and endorsements in any market. The Thunder have 27 games on national television this season  compared to New Yorkâs eight.

The Knicks are projected to land in the lottery again  while challenged to replace Anthonyâs 22-plus points per game. Theyâll be really bad  but itâs easy to find the long-term reasons for dealing  Anthony : it creates a faster transition into the Kristaps Porzingis era; it eliminates potential distractions and another controversy; it jibes with New Yorkâs tanking strategy in the final year of the current draft lottery system.

 Anthony  wouldâve been traded long ago if  he  wasnât one of only three NBA players with a no-trade clause. It was given to  Anthony  by Jackson â along with a $124 million contract â in 2014. Before that   he  led the Knicks to a division title  a playoff series victory and set the franchise record for most points in a game (62).
But everything went downhill after Jackson took over as president  culminating Saturday with  Anthony  leaving the Knicks â a marriage once meant to save the franchise.

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Donald Trump Jr. is Negative . You may remember  what seems like 15 years ago  when  Donald Trump Jr.  took to Twitter to offer a candy-related metaphor. In this metaphor  a bowl full of Skittles were refugees  but three of the Skittles were poison. There were many problems with this metaphor.
 Trump  is back at it with the candy-related metaphors  seeking to make a point about socialism using  his  daughter's trick-or-treating haul from Halloween on Tuesday night.
And yet again   he  doesn't seem to have thought it through completely.
Iâm going to take half of Chloeâs candy tonight & give it to some kid who sat at home. Itâs never to early to teach her about socialism. pic.twitter.com/3ie9C0jv2G â Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) October 31  2017
âI'm going to take half of Chloe's candy tonight & give it to some kid who sat at home â  Trump Jr.  declared. âIt's never to early to teach her about socialism.â
As with the Skittles tweet   Trump  appears to have cribbed this idea from someone else. Alex Jones's conspiracy-theory website posted something Monday featuring a video of kids having to turn over their candy in the name of âsocialism.â âWATCH: Kids Learn Painful Lesson on Socialism with Their Halloween Candy â reads the headline.
And as with the Skittles tweet  this one was met with plenty of skepticism and derision. There are clearly problems with it â not the least of which is that we're now using cute little kids on Halloween to make political points and that  Trump  misspelled âtooâ while talking about teaching  his  daughter something.

Someone in the highest income bracket already pays 39.6 percent of their income beyond $418 000 (or beyond $470 000 if married filing jointly) in federal taxes  and in fact  the marginal tax rate for high earners in Trump's home state of New York is already around 50 percent. So that's actually about the correct amount of candy for  Trump  to confiscate -- if we're considering candy as "income" -- even in our capitalist country.
There are certainly ways in which the wealthy avoid taxes â which many noted in response to  Trump 's tweet â and income via investments is taxed differently. But the point stands that turning over a large chunk of candy would be expected from someone with the last name â Trump .â
And then there's the inescapable fact that  Trump 's daughter just literally accepted handouts from other people rather than earning the candy herself via hard work. As some noted  that's pretty socialism-y.

SOLUTION:
no
