Oh this looks really cool and your free tier is awesome. I'm going back to school in the fall and will be giving this a shot.

Yah this sounds like a leaky microwave interfering with the 2.4GHz band. I've had it happen with older microwaves in university housing interfering with the ubiquiti APs that they had on site.

Wouldn't this just be a classic case of survivorship bias? For every Amazon and Facebook there could be a number of companies that did similar things and fell apart.

The fear for many likely doesn't even come from the book of Revelation but rather from a popular Christian series of novels based on one person's interpretation of Revelation. I'd bet most people afraid of the mark of the beast haven't even read Revelation.

There are still aim bots in lol because there are aimed skill shots for most of the champions. Scripting is abilities is probably the main method of cheating though.

This anti cheat software is for their new game valorant which is a counter strike like shooter.

I know you reference your introductory notebook throughout your docs but I think it would be helpful to include some of the plots inline in your docs.

Seeing that this lib is built on top of statsmodels my first response was that I'll just keep using statsmodels. However the simplicity of the diagnostic plots actually seems really nice value add. Showcasing those plots right in your docs might make it more attractive to people checking out your project for the first time.

Is it worth formatting my external flash media as exFAT at this point if I find myself dual booting often? NTFS on Ubuntu is pretty well covered so that has been what I have been using. But if exFAT support is improving I'm wondering if it is worth switching over.

At risk of oversimplification, sound is just energy and given the right amount of energy chemical changes can be carried out.

This is an interesting theory. Probably one of the more plausible ones. I imagine some sort of biological or toxicological attack could cause some sound processing related symptoms.

On the wild end of things one could imagine it being a combination of sonic and chemical attack where the an innocuous chemical structure became active as a result of high frequency sound.

To be really sure it would be a good idea to have one person enclose the tablets in the envelopes and a different person to administer them to you.

But I suspect that there might be other factors here that might influence your study design. Mostly because neurotransmitters are super complicated.

The article mentions that the hackers stole 500MB? The number seems small given the scale of storage in modern computers but I guess 500MB could account for a large number of documents that contain confidential info.

It takes a while but what I ended up doing was deleting friends on their birthdays. It takes at least a year but mostly weeds people out who don't fit in your circle.

Have you looked into the plaid[0] free(test) tier? They hook into a bunch of different banks and the free tier exposes balance and transaction history.

I was never really into podcasts until I started my current job and commuting regularly. After a while I noticed that listening to music was beginning to fuel my frustration with other drivers and I'd get to work already stressed out. I started listening to talk radio and podcasts and that has really improved my feelings on the road and my state of mind walking into the office.

I honestly don't think it has really impacted my music listening either. I'll toss something on at work and listen while I work through a problem or while reading. The type of music I listen has shifted to fit my purposes but it is still there and I don't see it going away either.

I use mixed effects models pretty extensively. While there is an implementation in statsmodels the implementation in lme4 is more user friendly and has a more mature ecosystem of post-hoc tests.

Thanks for clearing that up. To my point about contributions, I was more speaking about how people went directly to look at the code contributions in lines of code measured by github in order to measure her specifically. I agree that it is important to appropriately assess and acknowledge contributions in academic work but pure volume of code written (which doesn't always correlate with what github counts) doesn't necessarily quantify the contributions to an academic work.

The quote that you included as part of [1] doesn't seem to be present in the article you linked.

Getting down to your question I am not sure the fault lies with those who are wondering about the difference between two opposing statements in the media. The piece I take issue is that as soon as the picture of her with the image of the black hole started to go viral the first thing many people did was check her contributions to a repo on github to quantify the code that she wrote for the project as a way to measure her which ultimately seems like something someone would do out of feelings of inadequacy.

Are you saying that Tim Horton's doesn't claim to be Canadian for PR and media attention? Because that is basically the core of their marketing, to be synonymous with Canadian culture.

I would also recommend the MIT calculus courses on edX. It has been a great refresher for me since the last I looked at calc was 8 years ago.

Yes but Keurig isn't really espresso, it is similar to traditional brewed coffee just with some alternative flavor choices.

I think that the team at System 76 includes some additional hardware drivers and tweaks that might provide a wider range of compatibility.

Probably, Tolkien and Lewis are often noted as being friends. Tolkien regularly gave friendly criticism of Lewis's frequent use of obvious allegory. The main character in the Out of the Silent Planet series is noted as being based on Tolkien.

It sounds like you did all you could in your situation and you were willing to work through it with her. Empathy and support are really all you can provide in situations like yours. Particularly as a partner there isn't much more you should do other than encourage professional help.

Eating disorders are a complicated class of mental illness with a varying collection of co-morbid issues such as anxiety and depression. I've come to dislike the binary labeling of anorexia and bulimia because the symptomology is so much more complex than the classifications we give them.

I had a similar perspective as you. I couldn't get past a lot of default design decisions made in many distributions and I didn't want to spend the time tweaking my machine. I installed Pop_OS after seeing the Theano release a couple of weeks ago and basically haven't booted into windows since. As a casual user I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a similar linux experience as I was.

I find this interesting as in my undergrad I was working with a 3M supplied poly-fluorinated ether which was said to be a highly stable compound. We were breaking it apart with all manner of amine compounds producing various levels of HF and and HF2 along with poly-fluorinated amides that had a small amount of research mostly pointing to negative environmental impacts. Nothing really came of it as my reactions had no applications relevant to the goals of the lab I was working in.

I was running Ubuntu mate off of an SD card on my surface pro 3 for a couple months and it worked well until the card corrupted. There is a pretty active community at https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/

This is why the push to open science is so important. Making data sets and code accessible for more in depth peer review should be required. Maybe it is a side effect of our antiquated publishing industry though.

The makers of OxyContin have been losing lawsuits [0, 1] for aggressively and misleadingly marketing (saying that it wasn't addictive) the drug for pain management leading to the levels of opioid addiction that we see in cities around North America. I think pharma, particularly Purdue, deserves the lion's share of the blame in this.

Negative mutations such as chronic pain would normally get selected out of a species but because humans have become quite adept at survival we don't select out these traits as easily as a less intelligent species might.

I think what the author is trying to across is that despite the technological and scientific advances we still struggle with our understanding of how pain works. I mean a 7T MRI is ridiculously powerful and at the end of the article one of the scientists from the lab tells the author "That map is actually really difficult to make sense of".

They do discuss a little bit about the brain coping with pain in religious versus atheist participants about halfway down the article where in the religious population they found that a neural area was engaged that is associated with ability to override physical response.

I think this article is important right now because pain and pain management has been one of the driving forces behind the opioid epidemic that has been sweeping across the continent. Understanding pain is an important part of managing it.
