One example might be that spirits are said to be bound by arbitrary functions (bizarre ritual ingredients being a famous example). That they respond to and recognize cues.

Another aspect of spirit lore is that the more central or higher in the hierarchy, the less different "pointers" or cues may be required for evocation, and stronger expression of those fewer cues may result. The lower/more numerous spirits might require more specificity or larger seed.

Transformations at a minimum: by inducing a receptive trance state, then by self-suggestion.
Erlang is a very simple language. It doesn't look like C, but it has a very basic syntax and a narrow set of core constructs.

Elixir by comparison is significantly more complicated, but the fact that it looks tacitly like Ruby is apparently very attractive.

I suspect I could sit down with you for an hour and remove all the weirdest seeming bits which feel alien. Such that the rest of it would just feel like any other programming language, and you'd be able to immediately start dissecting and understanding other people's code.

Part of the problem with Erlang (again an evangelism problem) is that there's not much in the way of attractive and we'll structured on-boarding documentation. It's mostly really simple. It's just that the Erlang docs seem to go to great lengths to obfuscate that fact. In large part because they don't do anything to intentionally build "background schema" with the reader by drawing comparisons to similar things they're probably already familiar with in other ecosystems.
A cell /is/ epigenetic state, and the effect of any piece of DNA is profoundly controlled by other pieces of DNA, RNA, proteins, RNAs interacting with RNAs, RNAs interacting with proteins, proteins interacting with proteins, etc. Scrubbing the proteins, RNA, and so forth from a cell without killing it is inconceivable.

That said, I don't want to say that cancer is fundamentally beyond us. I think cheap sequencing and emerging highly targeted DNA editing systems, along with better understanding of the immune response to cancer, will get us most of the way there in a practical sense.
Thanks for the lectures, I'll look through it, I've started to watch their lecture form Jurafsky and Manning that is available on yt.

Currently It's mostly about topic/category recognition in articles and the other part are entities, how to do entity linking and the entities relevance for the articles.

Maybe later on I'll have to look for synonyms (wordNet and word embeddings can be useful for this), but this is something for the future.

This sounds a lot like victim blaming to me.
I do agree with you on this in theory but to be honest I personally hate this. 9 times out of 10 the person shouting "on your left" startles me and my brain goes into overdrive frantically trying to calculate which side he is on with respect to my own position and trying to get my limbs moving in the opposite direction. The twist is that I'm usually not in the way to begin with most of the time.

Now I'm not sure how to solve this conundrum but I'd rather be more inclined to believe we need better design than resorting to strangers shouting their ever-changing location.

Being strictly professional and capable and executing on a problem has nothing to do with being a "drone". Developers should be looking out strictly and exclusively for their own interests, just as the company that employs them does. Excitement and enthusiasm are tools used to get a better deal on behalf of the company than the company deserves, and that's literally it.
It may match more with the way we speak but not really the way we think, imho. When you ask someone to do something you usually just give him a general description of what the end result would be and then add more details if necessary. You don't tell him exactly what to do step by step from the start to the end, because you don't really care most of the time. Markup and declarative style are closer to the way we think.
Default passwords are a problem with the system being configured; not with the configuration. Insecure-by-default systems should not be deployed anywhere.

Second round

Lisp mode, move left parenthesis, remove semicolon and curly brackets

(if (= var 2)
(do_something1)

On a big source file I am not sure if the amount of parenthesis is bigger than parenthesis , bracket, curly brackets and semicolons counted together.

Norway dismissed buying Gripen from neighbouring Sweden to buy the non-working F35, claiming Gripen failed the technical evaluation of what a capable fighter needed to be able to.

In hindsight it seems obvious that they were less concentrated with actually getting a capable fighter anytime soon and a lot more concerned with, well, paying money to the US.

This has caused a rift between the two countries that is still lasting.

Chaotic, unpredictable behaviours can emerge when simpler, predictable elements are brought together. A double pendulum is a good example of this.

Agreed that we don't yet know how to regulate the apoptosis, or understand how metastasis works. DNA Methylation, small RNA regulation, and purpose of non-coding RNA isn't very well understood yet, too.

> I believe it's much easier to simply figure out the right cocktail that would change cancerous cells into normal cells again, and then find the delivery mechanism for that.

I reckon much of this has to do with small RNA and miRNA based regulation of transcription. Essentially the specific portions of the RNA/DNA are "silenced" by several regulatory factors. If a growth regulator gene, say CDKNA is accidentally silenced then the cell would undergo an uncontrolled growth, _with_ mutations. This in turn will grow "diseased" cells, eventually causing cancer. Trouble is, we just do not understand this properly, yet.
No, Java has become too advanced for the typical Go developer.

Here's Lynda Obst explaining why we're seeing current crap movies (Marvel and alike) predominantly from Hollywood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_oHW31jQfg That's not your average reader/analyst, but someone who knows what they're talking about. It works too, so I wouldn't bet on it disappearing too soon. I think they will, and when they do there will be a spectacular crash as it's a spectacular business success right now.
But then it also means the malicious user cannot eavesdrop on other users, so other users will be secure, right?

It’s usually possible to re-frame problems to not require trig functions at all.

For instance, you can represent rotations as unit magnitude complex numbers, compose them using complex multiplication, and trivially get whatever trig functions you want out. If you need to compress them for I/O, take the stereographic projection (requires 1 division per point for both forward and inverse transform) and then optionally reduce the precision of the result.
Only one data point (well, 3) but one of my parents remarried and I have 3 half siblings 15y-19y old. They pretty much just eat out every time they go out with friends, and are obsessed with finding new places to eat out and share online. "Instaburgers" (burgers made entirely look good on Instagram/Snapchat)) anduff like that. Otherwise they hang at home with friends or at friends places, and go to beach a lot (they don't live near a beach, it's a day trip).

I don't think I've ever heard of them doing ANY of the stuff we did as kids. No arcades, skate parks, parks in general, and movies are once a year, maybe twice. They mostly get their content legally online (Netflix, iTunes, etc). None pirate or know how. None do any "geek" stuff either. Tech is purely for media and games.

I'll believe it when someone raises a realistic budget, on a regular basis. For TV episodes that's $2-3 million per episode and two to three times as much for a pilot and for a 'low budget' movie it's $20 million. Ultra low budget and indies aren't what we're talking about though. Same with games - I can't remember, but wasn't Star Citizen only one that raised enough funds to be considered AAA? It's a different business model too. TV and Film business is vastly complicated area.

People sometimes tease me for reviewing my own pull requests.

But I am a big believer in roles. The reviewer role is different than the creator role. When I mentally switch, through the priming mechanism of my code review tool, I am often able to see the defects in my own design or code.

I sometimes do the same thing with design docs or proposals by imagining myself as the person who has the most to lose by my proposal succeeding and then commenting on my doc from their perspective.
FileNgin is a start-up company. Our product, FileNgin.com, provide a higher level of data protection to consumers. We use AES-256 CBC encryption to encrypt all files. What is unique about out product is that we utilize user password for key derivation. This use of an unique key for each user guarantees protection against data breach at large scale.

A widespread practice in the industry is to encrypt files using a master key owned by the data storage provider. I.e Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and DropBox. This method is much cheaper and less prone to problems since the encryption is somewhat unified. But it is more vulnerable to data hijacking.

Problem with systems such as Google Drive and DropBox is that provider and anyone the provider willing to share the key have access to your data. We see this as a weak point in data protection. Our goal is to remove this centralize master key design and embrace user specific keys to encrypt each user’s files uniquely.

With growing number of data breaches and events where governments performing large scale information surveillance, it is important to keep your confidential data encrypted.

There’s ~ 15K-20K diseases that we’ve classified.

There’s 3.2Bn genetic base pairs.

There’s just over 7Bn people.

Maybe like 7M-20M people suffer from a disease or even well below or above that.

Finding someone at a given time in the exact modality that would be testable by a given trial is really hard.

Genes are sets of base pairs.

A lot of drug discovery is a situation where you have to test compounds empirically against a notion of a theory of a viable drug target.

Some drugs may be efficacious, but they may kill you.

Some genes may work in coalition with other genes, not at all, or against some genes.

There's also the fundamental notion about the druggability of a disease. This article does a great job in outlining it: http://omicsomics.blogspot.com/2017/03/targets-drugability-r...

There are no monstrously hard computational power problems in drug development that are waiting for mathematical brains to pursue. There are hard Empirical problems. Empirical problems are problems which require actual experiments to show resultant data.
This is not typical public safety trunked radio stuff that Motorola usually does.

This is basically a special LTE band (14 - 760mhz down, 790mhz up). Standard LTE tech using one of the lower frequency bands for better range and penetration but lower speed. Also the public safety modems in device will go up to 1 watt transmit instead of just 300 milliwatts of your typical LTE device.

Most public safety agencies in US already using cell networks heavily for their in vehicle laptop / dispatch systems having contracts with Verizon or ATT this will just give them a dedicated band the public isn't using so it should stay up better even when the rest of the cell system is hammered due to a unexpected event. Probably includes dedicated backhaul bandwidth from the towers and static ip's for devices etc.

Interesting note you can get a legal LTE booster that goes to 1 watt transmit to match FirstNet transmit power.

Cradlepoint already has a FirstNet modem, thier routers are used in public safety vehicles already along with Sierra Wireless and Pepwave: https://cradlepoint.com/content/whats-new/band-14-module-pub...

Interesting article. Hits home for me. I've honestly struggled with this for years. I've always been a night owl.

As a young adult, I managed to get away with it; my family and friends would often called me "lazy" or a "late sleeper" but I always pointed out that, although I woke up at 11, I went to bed at 4, so it's not like I'm sleep for 12 hours at a time.

However, as an adult, it's challenging; I have to get up early for work or school, but I crave the late-night dives into my thoughts.

Also, it's not that I necessarily like being alone—I wouldn't call myself a solitary person—but I find that the night is also productive and fertile time because there are fewer distractions: once everyone's asleep I can work undisturbed; for me there's something calming about the night/early morning.
Riding at night, hands removed from the handlebars, no helmet, with no safety lights or reflective gear, wearing all black, on busy street, where the only indication of there being a person present is the faint glow of their cell phone screen and the ember of a lit cigarette. Often extremely reactionary and aggressive when they have a close call. Even more so when a fellow cyclist points out how dangerous it is.

The above is a common occurrence in inner-SE Portland after hours. Especially on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

It's fascinating from a particular perspective.
People feel like they need to get a degree nowadays because it's seen as the only path available to get a good, stable career. We've shifted to a "service economy," which is just a fancy way of saying all of the jobs where people had leverage and unions were shipped overseas in order to benefit the capital owners. Intense specialization is now required to help those people and companies who won the globalization game to get richer. Those who are unable to specialize will continue to face a shrinking quality of life.

I see two options available to us: Either we restrict globalization to increase demand for lower-class labor(which would then create Unions, increase consumer spending, lower inequality) or we can introduce universal basic income(which would at least let the lower class survive while their jobs continue to be outsourced). Either way, there will be stiff opposition from the major corporations, and thus the politicians will fight against it.

I read the FT weekend, private eye, and sometimes monocle as my fill of physical periodicals but I think throwing all journalism into the same box as your avg daily mail/buzz feed AP copy/paster isn't really accurate. These aren't journalists they are 'content curators' or whatever the term is these days.

I'll use some of those sites to see what's happening quickly -- the bullshit around a story isn't too important when I'm just looking for headlines. things like 'terrorist attack in paris' are statements everywhere which is about all can expect from such places; more in depth stuff I go longform and sometime even podcasts or books written later.

Instead of raging war on stuff that's been going on for years in the press why don't we just balance out input ourselves instead of playing into this drive to delegitimise the press, which only seems to benefit the government. We need a press to hold things accountable since the judiciary and senate have already been steamrolled.

... and then you get the JavaScript situation where everyone thinks they're an actual programmer at $TEAM_LEAD level of sophistication when it comes to modeling, design, architecture, testing and implementation... but they're really not. It's not their fault per se, it's just that they do not have the necessary experience to realize the areas that they're lacking in. (This is a well-known cognitive bias: More than 50% of people think that they're an above-average driver. There are a precious few who realize that they're not -- they are the exception.)

Programming is hard[1] and if there was an instant-humbling device, I'd buy it in spades.

[1] Most people focus on the "oh, that's Undefined Behavior" bits of it, but it's not really about that. It's about recognizing the types of mistakes that you make and working to avoid them or creating a system that does, whether that's by testing or proof or whatever. Obviously it still has to be _practical_, but AGAIN... it's about tradeoffs. If you don't care about correctness, I'm pretty sure I can whip up a "solution" to any problem that's fast as hell... and not correct. Summa summarum: I think we need to be thinking a lot more in terms of tradeoffs and not so much in absolutes.

I would certainly be interested to know the references, but I don't find your argument here convincing. Testing for insertion of a defensive gene by exposing the organism to a hostile environment is an extremely well-developed and reliable method in genetics. But I suppose there must be a million ways to screw it up so I can't rule your mutation scenario out based on what I currently know of the research.

On the other hand, I find your skepticism and independent thinking refreshing.
