"We tested participants in four age groups: 6 years old, 8 years old, 10 years old and adults (over 18 years) as a control group. In each age group there were 10 participants who had a family dog in the household and 10 who never had one. The 6-year-old group was tested in kindergartens, the 8 and 10-year-old groups were tested in elementary schools. The adult group was recruited from university students. The sex ratios of each group were balanced. The mean ages of dog-owner and non-dog-owner adults were 23.80 ± 1.33 and 24.10 ± 3.19 years, respectively."

And the dogs:
"Barks from the Mudi breed (a Hungarian sheepdog listed at the 238th Standard of the FCI (Fédération Cynologique International)) were used for this study. We recorded bark samples from eight adult individuals (male/female: 3/5, age: 4.13 ± 2.30 years)."

Keep in mind its some ethnologists from a Hungarian university. It's not like they will have huge funding.

All I can say is that from within my department, and from a lower-than-senior-civil-servant level, the ground looks very different. It’s not for nothing that we have our design principles[1] that have ‘user needs’ and ‘do less’ as points 1 and 2. We absolutely need to have funding to do that, but specifically at GDS we’re part of the UK Cabinet Office’s Efficiency and Reform Group - a primary mission for us is to do more with less on a pan-government scale.

To argue your second point, tax payers want an easy life. If we can cut minutes or hours off your interactions with government year on year then you’ll be happier, regardless of whether your overall burden goes up or down.

Interesting!

Here is a paper of one of the researchers quoted: http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/content/76/14_Supplement/4...

I couldn't find the paper the article was specifically about, but apparently these researchers have been focused on the benefits of fasting for awhile. I would love to see if a meta-study supports their conclusions.
Is that the same Kenneth Rogoff who co-authored a study about "Growth in a Time of Debt" which turned out to be full of faked data? And, curiously, EU/ECB/MMF (the infamous "Troika") and, most prominently, Germany based their "austerity" measures towards South European countries on that very study - which practically and conveniently provided the alibi for their crimes.

"Curiously" only the first sight: This guy is a member of the "Group of Thirty", a group "founded in 1978 by Geoffrey Bell at the initiative of the Rockefeller Foundation" and supported (http://group30.org/about/supporters) by the very profiteers of austerity.

And now he writes about "The Curse of Cash".

Should we believe him this time as well? Do we really know, who's interests he's serving?
Hey there, thanks for the generous sentiments and well-intentioned question.

That kind of trial isn't something I'd consider to be particularly valuable, as the whole issue of sleep quality and overall health is too complex for it to be possible to isolate one factor like this.

I should point out that at the times when I've experienced poor sleep with the phone on, I haven't been aware of it until I woke up the next day. It's been a case of waking up feeling less well rested, thinking "shit, why do I feel so terrible?", then reaching for my phone that had been sitting on the pillow next to my head and realising that it was turned on. So it is somewhat blind, without being scientific.

I certainly don't claim this experience as clear evidence that "cellphones impair sleep" – it's just one factor among several that seem to make a difference in my case.

It's this complexity that makes these kinds of illnesses so hard to understand and overcome. For me, good, refreshing sleep has been hard to achieve for many years, even with the phone turned off (though mercifully it's getting much better lately, as is my overall health and happiness).

And I know other factors make a difference too - what I ate/drank that day, what time I got to bed/sleep, what kind of exercise/activity I did that day, what my emotional state had been that day. Any one or combination of these factors on any given day could cause worse sleep than normal, so it would be very difficult to isolate the phone being on or off as a standalone factor.

Given all this, I'm perfectly open to the possibility that the phone being on or off is actually not a factor at all.

But given that (a) there is some established evidence that cellphone transmissions alter brain waves, and (b) it takes close enough to zero time/effort to turn off the phone's transmissions before going to sleep (as well as preventing interruptions from any calls or alerts that may happen during the night), I'm content to keep up the practice of keeping transmissions turned off when I sleep.

By the way, if you want a somewhat-scientifically based explanation that may help you understand what's going on with your relative, I'd recommend reading The Biology of Belief by Bruce Lipton. He has some colorful ideas and is easily dismissed by curmudgeonly skeptics, but his approach has solid scientific basis, and it's only by following the principles he recommends that I've been able to start enjoying such good health lately.

That aside, I wish you all the best for your relative's wellbeing.

If we equate today's car buyer with the self-driving car buyer, I agree with this statement, with one caveat, speed. Speed and the resulting driving safety at that speed will be a major deciding factor for the self-driving car buyer.

That being said, I believe Apple will still build the self-driving car. This could really be Bob just shaking up the entire team, given his hardware background. One explanation - there's just no other sensible way to spend their humungous, growing cash pile.

>Modern-day tech journalism: cut and paste together some quotes from Hacker News comments.

What people seem to be oblivious to is that "modern day journalism" also brings in much much less than "old day journalism" did -- and it's the masses who cause this, since they don't seem to particularly care to pay for content of higher quality, and ad revenue is not that big to compensate.

So don't expect competent fact-checking departments (if they exist at all), journalists paid to follow a story for weeks or even days, and other such niceties in 2016.

The same goes for people who invariantly ask online outlets "don't you have editors" etc for typos and such.

Don't these people know that even traditional media like newspapers have been dropping most of their editors and proof-checkers? Tons of online media often have none at all, or just one or a couple to handle tons of posts per day.

I have few bug and enhancement reports:

1. The vote up status seems to get reset or so it seems from the app. I had invited this post yesterday, by today the thumbs up icon color was black again. It looked as if I did not vote this thread. So I clicked on that, and then the thumb icon was green. Then I went back to the main page, and remembered to type the following point. So I came back to this thread and the thumb icon was black again. It looks as it the app is remembering if I have already voted for that thread. Does HN allow one to vote any article multiple times?

2. I like the concept of the navigation overlay. But can you please add an option to disable the vibrations each time that button is used? It gets pretty annoying after navigating few comments.
You are really just digging the hole deeper at this point. This needs a mea maxima culpa.

Yes, I got a data science job advertised as masters only by showing past work and painting a picture of how I could do similar for their industry specific problems. I think credentials are often more a factor in getting the interview which can be hacked through connections and good networking but once you're in the interview, you can often communicate compentency through past work rather than a stamped piece of paper. That said, I've since done a MSc in Statistics and it's definitely easier. Think it helps but not strictly required in all cases (some companies will insist but think especially now with such a shortage of skills, I think you can get away with just a solid portfolio and good networking skills)

Curious what business value will be returned by purging emails. My thinking is that keeping track of 2k email addresses in a person's head is no more practical than keeping track of 30k and likewise tracking 30k in a database is no more difficult than tracking 2k.

A starting point might be including avenues of engagement in the email list such as soliciting feedback.

Good luck.
Well this is Apple's first big new product foray in the post Jobs era and it's flopped.

It's flopped for a reason Jobs would never tolerate, a lack of a unique vision that focuses on a consumers simple human need for a product that requires an immense but reachable extension of current technologies.

This is not a good sign for Apple. It's been several years and there's been nothing innovative big or small out of the behemoth. Elon Musk has run off with Jobs' mantle and Apple is left dithering on a mountain of cash. Now Amazon's Echo/Alexa is a product that would have had Jobs smiling.

At least that's how it looks to me though I would be happy to be proved wrong.

Selling the binary is difficult, which is why it's best to provide a "service" of a mix of things which also happens to include access to the binary. Then, you can refuse to provide future service if the end-user makes the code public.

It's a bit sticky, because the GPL doesn't allow any constraint on distribution. However, the argument intellectually is that you're not stopping distribution you are merely refusing to deliver the "service" due to a breach of the service agreement - "I'm not stopping you distribute, I'm saying if you distribute then I won't be providing this separate service X".

Here's a 2014 example from a RedHat APAC service agreement:

"Distributing the Software or any portion of the Subscription Services to a third party or using any of the Subscription Services for the benefit of a third party is a
material breach of the Agreement even though the open source licenses applicable to individual software packages may give you the right to distribute those packages (and this Appendix is not intended to interfere with your rights under those individual licenses)"

Where:

"Software” means Red Hat Enterprise Linux, JBoss Enterprise Middleware and other software programs branded by Red Hat, its Affiliates and/or third parties including all modifications, additions or further enhancements delivered by Red Hat.

The haphazard stringing of comments leaves a pretty mixed-up message about what the actual issue is. There's no coherent overview of what is going on by TechCrunch. The traditional "ask random people" part comes after the explanatory segment, which makes it much less of a problem.

That's one obvious example that specifically allows bribery as long as it is not directly a quid pro quo exchange. Buying access and influence, on the other hand, was “a central feature of democracy—that constituents support candidates who share their beliefs and interests, and candidates who are elected can be expected to be responsive to those concerns.”

One of the problems with this is that it inevitably leads to creativity with the definition of "at fault". For example, a few months back an autonomous car lost control, steered towards a parked cars, and crashed into them. The spin in the media blamed the driver for not managing to seize control and stop it from crashing. Of course, what really matters is whether autonomous cars make driving safer, not whether we can blame all the crashes on the driver or a perfect driver would've avoided them.
This seems really cool! How much work outside the standard meteor workflows did you have to do for all the clients to be nicely synchronized? I guess since the turns are "slow" you have plenty of leeway to make sure the data gets where it needs to be, but I've had a little trouble before with many people connected to a meteor app and having them looking at the same interface, where some of the smaller, incremental graphic updates got skipped over and caused some visual lag. I'd love to see some sort of technical write up for how this game is structured!
IANAL, but my reading of that is if one makes money from one's site (e.g. by having ads) then EU will assume that one knows whether or not linked content is infringing. Because €10/month from adwords is totally enough to hire a lawyer to evaluate every link that users post.

Anyway, how does that "specifically address" GP's question about mutability? That isn't even mentioned in the bolded text.

Not so bad, actually. At least Dropbox has commented on it and is ideally working on making some improvements. Plus, a big tech site has picked up on the story, so a lot more people are aware of it now. And finally, it looks like HN played a role in raising this issue.

Still not an ideal situation, but could have been worse.

I think you only read the first sentence in the comment (which really ought to end with a comma rather than a period).
If you are going to "select" something, mutate it in your python code, and then commit it back without exclusively locking the rows you want to edit, then of course you'll run into data races when concurrent requests attempt to mutate the data!
