"eat some of the healthiest cuisine known to man, and hack away."

I love Japanese food, specially fish. But I don't know if the above statement is true after Fukusima. I try not eating fish in Japan now just in case, is a constant effort, because I like it so much.

"Tokyo is the world’s most livable city."
Most people I know in Tokyo does not live, they just work, and work. Lots of people there seeing their families(kids if they could afford to have them) on weekends. Extremely expensive place to live.

I prefer the German or Swiss model of work.

Japan is getting older and older, it is already a gerontocrazy, and very nationalistic. There are more opportunities for young foreigners in the future in Asia in places like Vietnam or Thailand.

Old people have something in common, they HATE change, and startups are change.

I would recommend living in Japan for lots of things, but never for startups. For me they are the antithesis of it(I worked there when I was younger).
Sacks was clearly a great doctor in many ways. But he'll probably be better known, and remembered, for popularizing science and medicine in a way that we rarely see: He describes people's symptoms carefully, but also sympathetically. He treats patients using science, which is supposed to be dispassionate, but does so with what's obviously a great deal of care. And he reveals science to us, not as a cold set of rules that govern the world, but as something that provides us with an infinitely large number of wondrous, almost miraculous, combinations of events.

Sacks articulated -- perhaps not explicitly -- that science isn't merely reductionist, cold, logical, and unemotional. He loved learning new things, and was clearly overjoyed to learn, understand, and appreciate the amazing universe in which we live.

It has been many years since I read, "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat," but I remember loving every page. His later books aren't as famous, but his writing continued to be enchanting and inviting, even when the subjects weren't necessarily my cup of tea.

We in Western societies tend to shut down discussions of death, and what it means. The writing that Sacks produced over the last year have been some of the most poignant, chilling, and inspiring essays that he produced. It's sad that he's gone, but I'm grateful that he shared so much of his work, and his life (and ultimately death) with all of us.

They forgot to mention the weather; Tokyo has seasons and an oppressive summer with snow in the winter. The Bay Area's climate is much more moderate and liveable, in my opinion.
Has anybody switched to writing on a screen as a regular thing?
anecdotal, my z4 28i has start/stop and it functions quite well. the 2.0l engine is very efficient overall and while I have not tested the mileage with start/stop off I am pretty sure it contributes to the good mileage I get from this sporty car. The start/stop works with the car in neutral and the clutch pedal not depressed; this is a six speed manual from 2012. US numbers, I track mine on fueleconomy.gov and I do about 32-34mpg commuting and a recent 1800 mile round trip averaged 38-40 at 65-80mph freeway.

I could see electric motors taking the place of the drive shaft and trans axel arrangement. You could easily add "awd" to many cars by electrically powering the previously non drive wheels. The best use is launching as that is where my mileage dives.

I am not a fan of the i3 because of the compromises made to the iRex for CARB regulations. A slightly larger engine and fuel capacity are warranted.

Ideally what I would like to see for a car the size of mine; small 1 to 1.5l engine capable of driving the wheels direct after speed is reached with electric responsible for getting the car off from stop. Chevy does a great job with the Volt but I think batteries still have a long way to go considering the weight required for so little range most offerings have
Think someone posted this some time ago:

A recruiter does not have any right to your salary information. Their contract is with the client and they will do what is in the client's best interest. Salary is like any form of negotiation, decide how you can negotiate most effectively.
Why do you say that?
You're misunderstanding his point, I think (or I'm being overly generous in interpreting him!). Though I admit he over-eggs it to a confusing degree.

The two coins metaphor illustrates the anti-correlation of two particles and why that doesn't allow faster-than-light communication. By observing one, you can deduce the other.

Of course it isn't a metaphor for the whole process, such that you can derive implications from the metaphor that will hold in the quantum case. But the point of the 'spooky action at a distance' is that there is no metaphor based in classical physics that can do so.

So physicists, and lecturers (in my limited experience) use metaphors to explain certain parts of the behavior.

It's like when a physicist talks about a quantum being a wave or a particle. Both are metaphors from classical physics. It is neither, and both metaphors only illuminate very specific properties.

The approach of saying 'that metaphor has been proved wrong', just leaves us with no way of explaining stuff. It is worth keep reinforcing that all metaphors are wrong, but your response seemed overly-negative to me.

In terms of US eating diet in the UK, well the Netherlands is kind of split there. On the one hand it's the most americanised country in Europe, on the other hand it's got its own distinct eating culture, breakfast in the Netherlands isn't really like anywhere on the planet and food eaten during school is mostly homemade (although by highschool this starts to fade).

But cycling can be significant. 200 calories per day is probably pretty accurate, I'd say it's more like 250 though. We're talking then about 1750 calories per week. Now if you were at caloric break even point, added an exercise that lost 1750 calories per week, ceteris paribus, that's about half a pound of weight loss per week. Over the course of a year that's 25 pounds. Or in other words, if you were at a caloric surplus (of 250 kcal per day) such that you'd gain 25 pounds every year during school, adding this exercise would totally negate that slow path to obesity. It's hugely significant.

Not just that but even if it prevents a small weight increases of say 10 in that year, and improves endurance and cardiovascular health due to daily exercise, kids will feel better and are more prone to trying out sports than if they'd already start to be overweight (or even obese) and have poor condition. (not because they don't need it, but because so many people start to identify them as a non-sports person, and many obese people start to self-identify with this, too). And that has compounding longer term effects.

Beyond that, I fully agree with the notion that you can't exercise away a bad diet, it's trivially easy to eat quantities of food that take massive exercise effort to counterbalance. But for kids in the Netherlands I do think cycling is pretty significant.
I have fond memories of discovering my college roommate's open SSH connection, and using "say" to great effect.
I've know a few addicts. They were brother and sister.

The brother was addicted to meth and recreationally used other things (pot, various uppers and downers, etc.). He went to jail for selling, then cleaned up, was eating healthy, got another college degree, held a respectable job, then went back to hanging out with an old boyfriend who was bad news, and ended up back in jail for carrying a large amount.

The sister just used pot, which many argue isn't an addictive, but I think when you get up every morning and have to have it and then divorce primarily because of substance abuse, that's a problem. She finally beat it after 30+ years of use.

Here are some common characteristics:

* Their mother had a pro-medication attitude. I don't think this causes addiction, but I think it may have been a contributing factor.

* They are both very intelligent and confident.

* They have both historically been very opinionated and were not easily swayed to other opinions.

* Both associated with people and lived in communities that were more liberal.

It's possible they have a predisposition to addiction, but I don't think it's possible to prove that one way or the other.

People can be chemically addicted. Heroin and meth for example are both very tough to beat after you've started. I've know people that died early because of past heroin addiction. It is a terrible thing, and it scares me to think that some day all drugs may be legalized.

Environment influences attitude toward drug use, and then personality traits can reinforce behavior. If you can avoid people that use drugs or have a liberal attitude towards drugs, you can avoid addiction. If you are a parent, talk with your kids about drug use. Let them know that you care about them and that you want them to avoid those that use drugs.

Addiction is a product of environment, personality traits, possibly innate tendencies, and exposure to chemically or psychologically additive substances. Whether addiction is a disease or not isn't important to me. Just stay away from people that do drugs, and if you get addicted, get off of drugs, and get out of that environment.

http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/03/deaths-per-twh-by-energy-so...

It's fair to say the author's methodology is interesting. Only 50 deaths from Chernobyl count... as it would be "tenuous" to count other people that eventually died from radiation poisoning (even using the figures accepted by bodies responsible for promoting atomic energy). It's apparently not "tenuous" to count ballpark estimates of a million lives shortened due to coal particulate poisoning, however, or indeed to guesstimate 1/6 of all roofing deaths are likely to be from solar. It's something of an understatement to say this is not the most intellectually honest exploration of statistics around an issue.

Compare with the New Scientist's claim - based on a study by the IAE - that the ratio should be around 14:1 for coal, and 1.5:1 for natural gas. Better than coal, certainly, but not spectacularly safe even compared with burning other fossil fuels

ZX Spectrum 48k had a BASIC interpreter as its primary OS. When the computer was powered on the first thing user would see was a REPL (128k version introduced a GUI menu with a few shortcuts). Although users weren't required to, they literally invited to learn some programming.

Not that this was "user-friendly" in modern sense, but also don't think anyone had issues with this.
Language is so very flexible.

Saying 'no templates' could mean 'no fixed templates' or 'we use styles not templates, a style is a general set of rules for how things are laid out, not a rigid structure'.

Not in websites, but I've build procedural content creation systems using hierarchical planners. To get really good effects they still run on what I'd call templates, they just are templates designed to work with the algorithm.

No coding, definitely, for the end user. They're not suggesting this isn't coded by someone. Just not coded afresh for each output: you build a parameterised algorithm that can generate a class of different outputs. The end user only deals with the parameters.
I would not call it shame, more that society does not take it seriously. I have often mused that if my mental issues had turned my skin bright blue or similar i would get a whole lot more sympathy.

It's a bit simpler then. Do you want to work for a company where a willingness to put one's self at a negotiating disadvantage is a first order evaluation criterion when hiring technical talent?
It sounds like this is something like Word2Vec on steroids, i.e., some kind of dimensional reduction based on seeing lots of instances.

It is an interesting idea but my suspicion is that it is a way to get where current NLP technology is with less work but it won't quite "cross the chasm" to produce commercially useful systems.

Deep learning is an academic bubble that is going to sweep through the problems that is good at, but 20 years from now people are going to look back it like many look at symbolic AI, which swept through the problems it was good at and then ran out of steam.
In that style, I find Latin Modern Mono better, especially its digits.

From a men's home-grown cooking show in Hong Kong.
This article was nice, but it indicated that you need to change the system preferences in order to change the voice. It turns out that you can pass the -v flag to use a different voice, or "-v ?" to get a list of names.

So you can do

say -v Samantha Help, I'm trapped in this castle!

or

say -v Princess Help, I'm trapped in this castle!

But wait, it gets even better: The Mac comes with a number of voices for other languages, such as French, Hebrew, Chinese, and Arabic. And it turns out that the voices will work in English as well, using that country's accent. I just tried it with a few different languages, and was amazed by how well this worked, within reason:

say -v Sin-ji "Hello, I am Chinese. What do you want to eat?"
say -v Thomas "Hello, I am French. What do you want to eat?"
say -v Carmit "Hello, I am Israeli. What do you want to eat?"

And yes, I should get back to work...
In essence, addiction is many things rolled up in a single term.

Yes, it is a chemical reaction inside the brain. But over time that chemical reaction gets padded by conditioned reflexes. This to the point that one may find some relief by mimicking the actions related to the chemical reaction.

The real crazy stuff comes when it becomes harder to kick those conditions reflexes than the chemical addiction itself. Meaning that the body no longer craves the chemical, but still react to external stimuli by attempting to go through the actions related to taking the chemical.
Maybe not. The gov. seems to handle the countryside extremly bad here in Sweden. Depopulation might lead to those prices, cheaper than the building materials in some areas. People are forced, in a way, to leave for the cities.
I see it as a failure of the model. When the explanation is irrational, does a scientist stop to wonder at the irrationality of the universe instead of trying to come up with better explanations?
This is not about word2vec, an algorithm for learning vector representations of words.

This is about learning vector representations of thoughts (ideas, concepts, etc.) in an unsupervised manner.

For reference, two months ago some of Hinton's colleagues at the University of Toronto published a paper describing an unsupervised algorithm for learning vector representations of sentences: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.06726v1.pdf

Once trained, this algorithm is given a sentence and asked to find similar sentences in a corpus of half a million sentences, and it produces impressive results. For example, when asked to find the sentence with most similar vector representation of sentence 1, it finds sentence 2:

* Sentence 1 (sentence given to the trained algorithm): "He ran his hand inside his coat, double-checking that the unopened letter was still there."

* Sentence 2 (sentence with most similar vector representation found by algorithm in corpus): "He slipped his hand between his coat and his shirt, where the folded copies lay in a brown envelope."

The paper has more examples. The vector representations learned by this type of algorithm truly appear to be capturing the meaning of sentences.

This looks promising.

Define 'template'. I'm sure there is a definition of 'template' such that they aren't using them. They're not, for example, using templates in the Wordpress sense of 'here is where blog post goes'. The video shows a selection of 'styles' which have clearly been designed, and shows the user selecting one. If you want to s/template/style in my comment, I'm fine with that.

In marketing, things are very rarely true or false. You use words in a particular sense to convey a message. You might say 'no templates', meaning 'no fixed structure templates', to convey the idea that it is very dynamic. That doesn't mean 'there is no hand-authored structure at any point', or 'the user does not chose from a range of design styles'.

So no, I don't assume 'no templates' is bullshit.

Your claim of future deaths has no rational basis.

You have fundamentally misunderstood the nuclear fuel cycle, and some very basic facts about radioactive material. The stuff that "kills" has a short half-life. The stuff that lasts for millennia is almost safe enough to store in your underpants.

Rather than parrot ignorant statements of others, please consider learning more about nuclear energy.

Maybe I'm out of touch with the realities of the world, being an ancient 31-year old PHP/Java developer who's never written a line of something cool like Go in his life, but an expectation of $10k post-tax right out of college doesn't seem like a realistic expectation for every graduate.
Ur right about the weight. And I believe that is what a lot of people complain about in a rollerball. Which is why I use my Parker Sonnet. A good heavier rollerball is the cool looking Retro 51 (which uses Parker refills).
Those are fairly strong statements, and not what I've seen of the UK market, so would be interested to see your references.

whilst the tories are indeed changing the subsidy picture, renewables in the UK can still get FiT tariffs to quite a reasonable degree, which is driving a lot of the investment in these areas.
They take up a lot of space on a sidewalk. If all cars were electric, charging them on my street would require putting up a charger roughly every 5m on both sides of the street to charge all cars typically parking here.

The same would have to happen for almost all residential streets in Berlin. Even ignoring the fact that there simply isn't enough space for chargers everywhere, it's also not practical financially.

Wow what a ridiculous article. For starters, only an extremely small slice of fresh-out-of-college developers would get a 120k salary and 300k in bonus and options. This is still absurdly high, if it's even true (and not exaggerated for the purpose of getting an article into the WSJ). I've noticed a sharp uptick in CS grads, and it seems starting salaries are actually nosing downwards. Or at least that's the case here in Boston.

Newer methods allow you to do a lot more - report progress of the upload, even read the file locally before upload (so you can resize images, for example). They're all great features to add, and I guess that GitHub decided that it was worth adding them and not keeping an older experience for Safari users.

IMO, they're both at fault here. GitHub should be able to provide a fallback, but also Safari should be keeping up to date.
