the method is quite general and applies to any image type for which an appropriate atlas is available.

It is simple to see why with a straightforward description of Multiatlas methods. Generally two steps are performed: Warping and Voing.

Step 1. Warp. An atlas brain is spatially warped to match the subject's brain using affine, non-linear and diffeomorphic normalization tools (ANTs being one of the strongest contending registration spatial normalization programs). This warp maps the atlas's ROI onto the subject's brain, producing a candidate segmentation. This is done for each atlas, producing N candidate segmentations.

Step 2. Vote. In its simplest form, candidate segmentations vote at each voxel for an ROI label, majority wins.

This produces the finished segmentation.

Advances in image registration and voting methods over the last decade have really made this the preferred method for accurate image registration. Unfortunately, sometimes good multi atlases are lacking. Historically, most published atlases are single atlases with an average or probability estimate at each voxel. There are some mutliatlases available for specific structures (e.g. hippocampus, see MAGeT comments above). I believe there are some multi ROI multi atlases now available. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4691373/
There could be some hidden costs that the publishers incur, no? I'm just playing tenth man here.

I'm not the most knowledgeable about scientific journal companies, but hosting thousands of papers online/offline and having to vet all these individually may be quite an expensive process, right?

OTOH, the infamous Alexandre managed okay with Sci-Hub, but maybe it was because she didn't have to vet these?

In the end, seeing the profits these companies make I suppose nullifies any devil's advocate position here. Some of the upper-echelon positions in these journal companies are multi-billionaires @_@
This is an excellent idea!

Minor nitpick,

1,000,000 users / 180,000 servers = 5,556 users per server

Should be

1,000,000,000 users / 180,000 servers = 5,556 users per server

Because it isn't about volume, and blogging is an inherently informal style in many cases (says someone who both publishes academic papers and has a blog).

As for readability, clarity of writing and visual clarity are not perfectly correlated. I have read very well-written papers that were still painful to interact with as physical objects.
The problem is there's pretty good evidence that the person is in another country, based on activity time, etc. The problem isn't that I can't file, the problem is that there's no guarantee I can find someone actionable on the the other side of the filing.
That's not minor, it's an order of magnitude difference! ;)
A few thoughts:

1. They don't have a standard journal style. I want my Lancet paper to look like a Lancet paper, not just "be fine".

2. I'd have to find them. The journals do it for me automatically on submission.

3. For a lab just starting out, there is no such thing as "very little money".

I don't think affecting a worldwide result using laws affecting companies based on your country is the same thing.

However I am curious, do you know of any example where a country ordered a company not based in their country to change something for other countries including the country they were based in? Surely there are sweatshop or other working condition examples, I just can't find any where the changes were required to apply for operation in other countries too. I suppose it would be like your answer to my hypothetical, I'm just curious if it has ever happened.

> It would be completely justified in requiring this to happen worldwide

I disagree if the company isn't based there (assuming by justification you meant to us as humans as opposed to legal justification).
And thanks for that. Your earlier HN comments were the first notice I had of that, and I agree, it's absolutely massive. First thought through my head was David Korowicz's "Global Supply Chain Cross-Contagion", though I think it might take a somewhat harder kick.

http://www.feasta.org/2012/06/17/trade-off-financial-system-...

Have you posted/blogged on this anywhere, because I'd like to see your general thoughts on this.

Another thought is that these attacks are far more epidemiological than military. That is, the spread amongst susceptible hosts, via chains of transmission, and can be controlled or limited through what are fundamentally epidemiological mechanisms: identifying reservoirs, patients zero and defence penetration, treatment by isolation, innoculation, monitoring, host-separation, and host diversity.

Similar argument apply to many of the memetic and human-based communications attacks which have been escallating of late.

A friend has pointed out that any communications network -- physical or logical -- ultimately becomes attractive as a mode of attack or subversion. The 1970s and 1980s vision of the Vast Interconnected World, perpetuated through the 1990s through the PR and advertising of companies such as IBM, AOL, AT&T (1-800-YOU-WILL), Microsoft, Google, Facebook, ..., was that this would be a better an peacefully interconnected world.

Clay Shirky has pointed out that when you connect more people ... there are more people to argue with. And who will try to scam, or subvert, or attack, or profit by, or gain political power through, communications, information, financial, or media networks. The bigger the system, the bigger the draw.

And ... yet we still don't prepare for this.

I'd very much like to see the EU, US, India, and China call for a public post mortem from Maersk. And to step up the game on computer security. Because this is, as you've said, deadly serious.

The assumption many have here is that all people build startups to get rich well truthfully thats what American start up scene has become. Reality is that most successful startups are not about making billions but solving a problem or multiple problems some people make a lot money solving those problems but most don't. Having a chance at solving a problem without bankrupting yourself and your family would be a good opportunity for many.

> They already do! Many (most?/all?) journals require authors to format the paper in journal style.

Not in many biomedical journals where Word is the standard format for a paper to be submitted in.

> In the vast majority of cases (non-tier one journals, basically not Science and Nature) this doesn't happen. They just look at the tick boxes the referees select (Accept with minor revisions, accept with major revisions etc).

I've appealed and/or argued successfully with editors to change a decision from "what the referees ticked" on a number of occasions.

> It's clear to most scientists that they're not. What you're paying for is the lockin effect these journals have by virtue of having a high impact factor.

It should be noted its not just impact factor that goes into prestige. For example, at it's height, PLoS ONE had an impact factor comparable to several major society-level journals that carried considerably more weight. "I publish all my work in PLoS ONE" versus "I publish all my work in Epidemiology and AJE" would likely result in very different yearly evaluations.
This lack of understanding of the definition of consensus can be quite infuriating at times.
I think, its a artificial status symbol for universitys- if you cant afford it - you are not really a scientistic institution.

Like all statussymbols, it could easily be replaced with something more pragmatic - and will never be, because ironically - in something as meritocratic as the sciences, the caste longs for the aristocratic.
I'm saying that both the claim that "WhatsApp is effective" and that "it is effective against mass surveillance" might be untrue even if it is effective at E2E encryption.

You can argue that WhatsApp itself de facto doesn't effectively protect (against mass surveillance) because it only works with instant messages and a lot of data isn't instant messages. You can argue that there is still mass surveillance of metadata. And that governments could enact secret laws to force vendors to engage directly in mass surveillance of their customers through the OS (less likely in the US, more so in China, especially as Google isn't present).

Sure, it's a nitpick. It's implied that it's effective because it's a good way to use E2E. But it not necessarily explored in the article whether it effectively protects people. I'm sure someone thinks that PGP was effective against mass surveillance too. So it becomes and issue over what you think is worth protecting.
You and one of the child posts are both putting "Pay the Fee" before "Peer review and a publication decision".

I don't get it, don't you need to write code in Zeppelin to have it show plots? You need to decide which data which aggregation.. do you have a link with any doc showing how to plot without writing code? I followed your links but I miss this.
We in fact tested multiple languages. I can even point you to various works done at the ANSSI like https://github.com/ANSSI-FR/bootcode_parser (python) or https://github.com/ANSSI-FR/caradoc (OCaml). I tried Haskell for VLC and it was not really suited for it (GC pauses in a synchronized media pipepline, and not meant to be called from C). But this was not a paper about comparing parser implementations.

Type-safety and lack of garbage collection are essential properties, could you tell me why you don't think that's the case?

Giving the reason for our language choice felt useful. Otherwise, it would have really looked like Rust developers steamrolling into projects :)

You might want to give Nightly a try (upcoming Firefox 56) which improved a lot thanks to Quantom Flow project. I updated from Firefox Dev Edition (FF 55) to Nightly and the boast was obvious (there's also been a good boast recently in FF 54 thanks to multi-e10s).

e.g. see the SpeedometerV2 benchmark differences at https://ehsanakhgari.org/blog/2017-06-23/quantum-flow-engine... So there is progress and thanks to Quantum the best is hopefully yet to come with the integration of Servo components
The lack of technical knowledge in the cryptocurrency community is staggering. It's obvious that a huge number of people are attracted by the "get rich quick" aspect of it all and they lack the basics to really understand the trade-offs and the subtleties of the various blockchain "flavors" and tweaks.

So it turns into dumb cargo culting like "Proof of Stake is 100% proven not to work", "Proof of Stake is 100% proven to work", "Lightning Network is going to fix everything and bring world peace", "Lightning Network is going to ruin everything and bring WW3" etc...

And you can't have any constructive discussion because if you try to argue for or against a certain technical proposal you'll immediately be called a "paid shill" or a "troll" regardless of your arguments. I've been lurking in the bitcoin subreddits lately and it's really one of the least helpful and constructive communities around. And it's a bit sad because on the technical side the blockchain is pretty damn interesting.
The website in question is owned by the libelous one, so the first idea won't work.

As far as the host, the problem turns into the same one as the IP enforcement has: Kill one head, and two more appear. My slanderer appears to not have a job, so it's no problem for him to keep moving on and getting new hosting. And for the next host he lands on, I've made myself a real target of that website.

Half the time I feel like this is a real problem with UBI proposals -- if we let people have free time all day, a certain fraction is going to waste it with libel or gamergate or SJW stuff, where the people who actually do something with their lives get attacked for no apparent reason. Like, I'm a huge fan of UBI, but without social support for self-worth outside of paid work, it's going to create a whole new set of social problems. Still a more tractable problem than poverty, I'd hope.
Beyond not seeing it as a problem, it is a genuine cost. A publication in PLOS Medicine costs ~ $3000.

That's a postdoc's laptop. That's several conferences. And it's a single-digit percentage of my startup funding.

It's not insane to not pay that if you don't have to.

I've always wanted to start my own company. It seems as though the prevailing wisdom is to create a product that 'scratches your own itch'. My problem is that I have no itches.

My life has always been incredibly privileged. I've grown up in a well-off family, lived overseas and gone to private schools. I graduated high school and went to one of the best universities in the country to study CS. I graduated 18 months ago and got a great graduate job working with friends in a well-funded startup and making good money. I'm incredibly grateful for how easy and comfortable my life has been.

The problem is that, as far as I can tell, all of my problems are already solved. How can I move past this and grow as a person? How can I identify real problems in the lives of others and work on things that I feel truly matter?

1. This is something the Mozilla suite got right, long before Firefox existed. I can't understand why they added and kept a seperate search box.

> But I also think there's something to be said for the people who don't primarily spend their free time scrolling through social media, watching television, and partying and instead perform small iterations frequently towards larger more rewarding goals.

The thing is, I could spend what little energy I have post-job to do something "rewarding", such as for example developing little game prototypes, or I could spend it to enrich my life by reading books, going hiking, meeting friends, and yes, mindlessly reading HN or watching TV shows. I feel like pursuing a hobby would leave me tired and drained (not to mention frustrated at the minimal progress I'd be making), while the activities I listed rejuvenate me and allow me to stay sane.
I think you missed the point a bit. A company isn't people. The company the author works for will not feel remorse (it's not a person) when it'll squeeze every last cent out of a customer to maximize profits. I don't see why the employee should feel bad when it maximizes it's "profit margin" in relation to such entity.
Try Nightly. I've used it for a year now without problems. Also install ublock origin there for displaying all the js-heavy ads. I also sync it with Firefox for Desktop.

For me it's the opposite: Chrome on Android is not usable because of all these ads.
ESTA is not entirely automatic. He could have been denied it; in fact, he probably will be denied it the next time he tries to get the ESTA, if he ever does. He will then have to go through the non-waiver visa procedure.

However, you only have to renew ESTA once every two years, not every time you fly. The DHS might have "discovered" whatever they discovered only recently.
It is not the previous, original decision that affects Canada only that I am concerned about. It's the global reach here. Some of their wording about Google inadvertently assisting the non-Canadian company outside Canada strike me as not understanding how the web works. I concur with the dissenters that mentioned the issue should be taken up with the other company's government (France?). It just reeks of protectionism, applied outside the country's jurisdiction because they have the leverage to do so.

I admitted my mother to a care home the day before yesterday. Went to see her after her first night and she seemed shocked to see me initially, but settled after a few minutes.
She knew who I was and asked where she was and why she was there, I told her she'd been getting more confused and wandering, and leaving the gas hob on with no flame. It was for her safety and better care, and more interaction with people and staff, with activities and regular meals. A little later, she asked if I had a mother or siblings in the area.

I've been living half way round the world for the last 15 years and other than irregular visits have watched her decline from afar. From getting confused on the phone, to not knowing (from what her home carers said) that the phone ringing meant anything other than an annoying noise. To getting picked up wandering the street by the police at 3am in her nighty.

A friend called not long after I left the care home, he has a way of putting a lot of things into a single sentence and said, "ah yes, an emotional rollercoaster, wrapped in guilt".
So why did Thiel chose NZ? USA allows dual citizenship to many other countries as well. NZ seem to have 33% tax rate so shouldn't that be off putting? Also, why take duel citizenship at all because US may then force you to relinquish USA citizenship.
