No, that's not calling you names. (That would be "You are a dick.") It's describing your behavior. "Being a dick" is a term of art.

For many years, Wikipedia had a useful page called "Don't be a dick":

https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Don%27t_be_a_je...

They've more recently renamed it "don't be a jerk", so if your delicate sensibilities can't handle my original comment, feel free to read it as "jerk".

In particular, you took something that a lot of people like and were shitty about it. You set yourself up as lord-high judge of them and their self expression. The people you were being condescending toward surely include people here.

Then, rather than just accepting the downvotes, you accused downvoters of working from offense to their "tattooed rebellious self-image", assuming bad faith and again acting superior.

I'm happy to call that being a dick.

As long as you're being a stickler for following the guidelines, perhaps read on down to "Please resist commenting about being downvoted. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading."

I think that for me the approach in TFA would work, if it was applied to songs rather than artists. There are many artists that have a couple of songs I like and a lot of ones I don't care for. Artist-based recommendations go terribly wrong for me for this reason, I think.

Generally we throw a lot of words around sometimes:

Like calling something torture - that you voluntarily do to yourself because of an expected net positive outcome.

For the respect of people who suffers or have suffered from torture I think we should avoid that kind of hyperbole.

Same goes for calling sexism on any joke about gender differences. It's kind of disrespectful to everyone who has suffered from the real thing.
> Trolls <are> not to be fed. But though everyone knows this, everyone does it; for the desire to be right on the internet is natural and present to all.

Trolling is fed by frustration, not discourse. Discourse does not have to be frustrating. How you react to it is entirely up to you.

I'd argue there's no such thing as a troll. People aren't all bad or all good. Trolling is a concept of negativity that spreads when given more negativity.

Cool! Will this mean MRIs take less time in the future? If so, any sense for how much less? I imagine it'd be more routine and give more people accurate diagnostics if it took 5-10 minutes instead of 45 to get a scan.

The point is absolute size, not relative. I'm no expert but I seem to recall usability types talking about ideal columns of text being 60-90 characters or so. If your browser is three times wider than that, it's reasonable for sites to show text that takes only a third of the screen. Why wouldn't they?
I wouldn't equate those two, no. But it's also worth mentioning that it's common in the natural world for prey to spend hours dying (and more rarely, days or even weeks). The idea that a 'natural predator' death means a quick death is a myth. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't.

A temporary tattoo is like dating somebody. A permanent tattoo is like marrying somebody. To me it's completely logical that you might want to try a tattoo on for a while and, if you like it enough, you can commit for life and make it permanent. Otherwise, if you jump straight into tattoo marriage and you don't like it, you're looking at a laser divorce.
I was looking for just how expensive desalination would cost, using ocean water.. Google says "[d]esalinated water typically costs about $2,000 an acre foot -- roughly the amount of water a family of five uses in a year."

Here is an article from a few years back, targeting 17 deslination plants by this year's July.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/getting-clean-water-from-the-sea...

The ending is so sad. Earlier this year gasoline was at as low as $1.3 here where I live in NYC (or even less I honestly can't remember how low!) Right now the gasoline price is at 2.37 where I live.

> "I do see that water is the next oil," Webber notes, "that water is the great resource of the 21st century over which battles [will be] fought, money is invested."

So here is what we need to do. Please invest more into desalination process. Make is so cheap we can produce water at a low cost.

When their enemies gained power they exacted revenge by framing him by accusing him of impiety and corrupting the youth (won't somebody think of the children?).

That's the hope. A little outside my field but current compressed sensing in MRI research is looking at reduction factors of about 2-8 (typically 2, 4, or 8 from tradition) in compressed sensing. This is still pretty rare in commercial machines though.

Some sequences such as EPI [1] can get images very fast (200ms) with a trade off in spatial resolution. This is for things like cardiac imaging where low resolution images of the heard every 200ms are more useful than a single high resolution image. Also for moving parts of the body there is often blurring artefacts due to movement within the image window using longer sequence types.

Unfortunately I think the biggest inhibitor of MRI being more common is still the price of a scan. Here in Australia it can be a few hundred dollars for a scan (and I understand it can be far more elsewhere). Again though if we had access to a cheaper option the idea of regular scans may not be too far off.

I like to imagine a point in the future where the sci-fi full body diagnostic scanning is a reality. Still a lot of work to get there but it is certainly getting closer.

> Yet, due to objections from environmentalists

Have you read the environmental impact - just the summary on the wikipedia article is fucking horrific.

> The engineering of the project and the creation of a large number of new reservoirs — many of them in designated wilderness areas — would have destroyed vast areas of wildlife habitat in Canada and the American West and would have required the relocation of hundreds of thousands of people — including the entire city of Prince George, British Columbia.[1] A number of federally designated Wild and Scenic Rivers in Idaho and Montana would be submerged under reservoirs, including the Salmon, Lochsa, Clearwater, Yellowstone and Big Hole.[1] The amount of electricity required to pump the water over the Rockies would require the construction of as many as six nuclear power plants.[1] Significant negative consequences were also predicted for Pacific salmon runs in the many Alaskan and Canadian rivers that would be dammed and diverted, reducing their flows. Luna Leopold, a conservationist and professor of hydrology at the University of California, Berkeley said of NAWAPA, "The environmental damage that would be caused by that damned thing can't even be described. It would cause as much harm as all of the dam-building we have done in a hundred years."

The first time I visited California, it was for a project for one of the native american casinos in the Temecula area. We flew into LAX met up with our colleagues (from other countries), rented a big suv thing and then drove to the casino.

The trip down was basically "wow this is a big city" followed by "holy shit there is nothing here but desert".

Then we arrived in Temecula. A small city, in the middle of the fucking desert, with perfectly manicured, perfectly green lawn along the side of HIGHWAYS.

In most of the world, if an environment is too inhospitable for people, they either change their way of life (e.g.: people living underground in Coober Pedy; people embracing alternative types of gardens in dry/arid locations) or they accept that it doesn't suit them, and live somewhere else.

In America: no. fuck that. It doesn't matter that 10 square feet of lawn will require more rainfall than this entire suburb will get in a year. I want my fucking lawn, so let's make it happen!
Making Aristotle be not "pissed" at troll? O_o

Aristotle like Plato were so convince that being right mattered so much more than ethic that they did not care and resorted to any means to make their points; lying, fallacies, spinning the truth, using auhority (they loved auhthority).

And they would call sophists (troll) anyone who they would consider opposing them and ridicule them.

They were the bulliers of the wisdom.

They were the prominent philosophs lobbying for the Republic because Athenes was a democracy, and rich people was paying Plato to attack the concept of democracy so that the wealthiest could finally rule the city. (which resulted in the fall of Athenes)

Aristotle and Plato were more than trolls, they were assholes.
It's legal pragmatism.

Or, say, objections from the entire city of Prince George, BC (population: 80,000), along with the tens to hundreds of thousands of other people who would need to be relocated in order to flood a 500-mile long stretch of Canada for the benefit of Californians.

Fellow (ex-)banker turned founder here. I can relate to this... and it is very scary (the amount of spreadsheet craziness I've seen on trading floors is insane). But I still believe that Excel is a powerful and power-enabling tool. And I know from my own experience how fragmented the "Excel tools industry" is.

We've been working on a fully fledged version control system for spreadsheets for ~2 years now and finally getting somewhere with Pathio[0] (we used to be called SpreadGit but that wasn't ideal for many reasons).

It's taken us a while to get here as our aim was always to build a system that:
- works with all Excel file formats (including the binary formats)
- works with VBA
- integrates seamlessly into (non-technical) people's workflow (which is different to how developers work)
- is fast (I personally worked on 100mb spreadsheets when I was at UBS...)
- gets the diffing right (which is different in two dimensional space where inserting/deleting rows/columns has a knock of effect on potentially a large number of formulas which are just... noise)

Feel free to drop me a note to see if we can be of any help to you - We also have an on-premise version (thanks to the guys at Replicated[1]).

Not just athletes but also people who exercise better in the morning.

So in my case at least a bowl of museli / milk / yoghurt and a banana is the minimum possible breakfast.
You dismiss the environmental concerns with little more than a handwave, but they were substantial.

The plan would have re-routed entire river systems, including economically important salmon runs, created a 500 mile long artificial lake in addition to other smaller reservoirs, would have required the relocation of "hundreds of thousands" of people, and would have required the creation of six nuclear power plants, just to power the pumps[1]. It was a grandiose, unworkable and IMO profoundly stupid idea. About at the same level as the plan to fill in the entire SF Bay south of Palo Alto that emerged around the same time.
