As I recall, instead of "compatibility intervals" (or confidence intervals), other gainsayers of P tests have proposed simply making the existing P criterion more selective, like a threshold value of .01 rather than .05, which equates to increasing the sample size from a minimum of about 10 per cohort to 20 or more.

I suspect this will be the eventual revision that's adopted in most domains, since some sort of binary test will still be demanded by researchers. Nobody wants to get mired in a long debate about possible confounding variables and statistical power in every paper they publish. As scientists they want to focus on the design of the experiment and results, not the methodological subtleties of experimental assessment.
Trigger Warnings Are Trivially Helpful at Reducing Negative Affect, Intrusive

They must have known. I haven’t worked with NNs for a few years but I don’t believe the methodology has changed where you would stop testing it over different sets of training data.

Barriers are a pretty big part of driving on roads and highways and the only reason it would have been unknowingly reduced would be if they just weren’t testing the NN against data with them.
When will we be in monitor-replacement territory? I try to edit text in each generation's headset, and it's still not viable. Curious what the threshold spec will be when I can launch a text editor and work in a VR environment.

The studies are almost universally p-value based.
Is there a reason such research often works bottom-up, from cells to meat? Would it not also be possible to go about it top-down, starting from an existing animal species (pig, chicken, etc.) and modify it via breeding or genetic engineering such that what remains is mostly a walking muscle that can be used for meat production in a more ethical manner?

In the end, true lab meat might be "cleaner" or the better solution. But in the meantime, reducing the cognitive abilities of such farm animals by breeding or gene-tech also seems like it could be an ethical alternative to reduce their suffering.
That’s a great question. I held off on tackling standard notation because there are some existing solutions out there for composing standard notation. I decided to focus first on what seemed like an unmet need in the space.

That being said, I plan to bring in standard notation as an option after adding timing control. I think Songcraft could do some amazing things with conversion between tabs and standard notation, lead sheet generation, full play throughs, etc. All that is feasible, and I’m excited to get to that point!
One theory: they don't want to record enough information to track who, because the FCC themselves might be one of the 'whos' submitting fake comments.

Another theory: they never were interested in the public's comments, so it never occurred to record enough information to track fake comments.
The study apparently missed its primary endpoint.

Regardless, I found your description of design process & workflow extremely illuminating (no pun intended). Have not seen this succinct and informative descrption anywhere else.
Other than the leaked photos from last year I don't think there's been any new details. But they're clearly working on a headset; those photos are way too detailed and unique to be faked.

Any sense of what might be going on? A reference design for other manufacturers maybe? Judging by the small iterations between the latest developer versions of the Knuckles controllers you'd have to expect those to be released fairly soon. Seems like putting out a headset along with the controllers would make sense.

I've returned to university recently. We're learning Make in one of my classes at the moment ("learning" Make seems so weird to me). When going over dependency graphs I couldn't stop thinking of how awesome `go mod tidy` is.
If that were the case, why didn't Microsoft's WMR partners blow everyone away (pretty sure 100% have used inside out tracking which prevents the station setup of Vive/Rift plus the lower barrier to entry PC specifications)?

I bought the Odyssey+ HMD during the Black Friday sale and I must admit, it is fantastic. But outside of that incredibly low priced sale ($299 I think it was?), I don't think WMR headsets have been really hot sellers while having access to most (all? I don't know) SteamVR titles and the ability to use Oculus ones via ReVive. I personally haven't had any tracking issues, but I haven't played anything where a hand goes behind the view of the visor like Skyrim, apparently.

Oculus Quest/Gear VR/etc seem more like the setups that will make VR "take off" (if it is going to, that is). The tethered experience seems more for the enthusiast but this particular side-upgrade seems to be going for the worst of both worlds (a tethered experience that isn't going to really resonate with enthusiasts as it most likely isn't an upgrade over their current setup and due to that tethering probably not going to appeal to the mass market either).
I really wish I could put myself into the shoes of people who think that fifteen minutes of using only one earbud is a big deal, but I honestly just can't.
Insane such type of commits into production need to be government regulated and scrutinized.

That's not what the post I was replying to is talking about. Free speech as an idea is pretty simple, it's the complexities of implementation that are up for debate.
> You're not counting actual prevalence of psychosis. You're counting prevalence of diagnosed psychosis.

True but the countries I listed are first world countries where accurate diagnosis is common.

The third reference I give is to a study on the prevalence of psychosis across 52 countries. It takes in to account that in developing countries diagnoses is uncommon and not accurate, any decent study would do this. The world health organisation study I linked used a sample size of 200,000 compared to the 2,000 sample size the cannabis study used.

> Cannabis only increases risk for one or two types of psychosis.

Then the study should only target those types of psychosis.

Yes other studies with larger sample sizes have proven this correlation before, but correlation in itself is meaningless. My argument was that if they really wanted the truth they could have done a study to show causation, but instead they showed correlation using quack sample sizes and then a bit of choice wording to scaremonger.

The fact that people with psychosis are more likely to smoke cannabis, doesn't mean cannabis will increase your risk of psychosis. It just means people with psychosis are more likely to smoke cannabis.
Sorry to be pedantic, but S3 is designed to be an Object store, not a filesystem - the semantics are very different, and the performance too.

Furthermore, S3's replication is "eventually consistent", something that you wouldn't accept in a filesystem-like use.

How about arguing for the environmental cost of our throwaway culture?

Airpods have a MUCH higher environmental impact than ordinary earphones. A lot of tech is crammed into these things, all of which uses energy, resources, distilled water and so on to produce.

I have a pair of Shure earphones that have "just worked" for going onto three years now. I had to change NOTHING on them, and they've never complained. I've worn them for 2+ hours Every. Single. Day. during that time period.

People are reporting rubbish battery lives on the Apple subreddit already, with several of them desperately hoping for new ones so they can mindlessly continue upgrading without stopping to consider where that tech ends up.
I don't believe that, but I concede the possibility that scientists who do unimaginative mainstream studies like gut bacteria or MRI free will "experiments" do in fact not have free will.
For the First Time Ever, a Woman Has Won the Abel Prize for Mathematics
Ok, so 2% of 25 million works out to an operating budget of 500K per year which is not a whole lot so you may have to scale that down a bit, travel, accomodation and due diligence costs for failed bids add up. A larger fund has an easier time with this. Fortunately the number of partners is small. If you can raise more money you should probably do so, but $120K for base compensation would do you nicely to stay afloat while the fund is spending and 50% of the 20% carry of the first exit will compensate you for opportunity cost, more exits and you should do just fine.

If you manage 2x or more across the whole fund you are going to do quite well, but that is not as easy as it sounds, especially not if this is your first foray into venture capitalism, expect to pay a tuition fee during the first couple of investments.

Best of luck with this!

But why should I want change if what they had before works better for me, personally, than what they want me to want? Wireless is all well and good, but I have enough things that run out of battery or get misplaced, so while I understand that its a super convenient technology for some people, for others like me, its unhelpful. Apples previous products were close to perfect for my use cases, but their new ones miss the mark, so they can have a millimeter thinner phones, or push their expensive earphones or whatever. Plus I like my existing headphones and don't want to replace them at this time.
But there isn't. There is, however, something wrong with hanging a "whites only" sign above your door, but that was the hyperbolic part that I was ignoring, since it was not comparable to the first two sentences of the comment.
I feel similarly. I've tried in-home streaming from PS4 to a MacBook— obviously the encoding of the video signal isn't going to be as optimized or speedy as Google's backend, but still, the overall ping is sub-10ms and it's still a way worse experience than playing the same game on the TV, even for relatively slow paced action-adventure titles like HZD or RDR2.

I can't imagine trying to play something like a fighting game this way.

GP said they "can't be charged while being used". Which is categorically incorrect. They can, and on the scale of Things That Are a Big Deal, it's an 0.3 out of 10.
Fair enough, but I'll observe that in my experience deadlines and deploys are often strongly correlated. Management generally doesn't care when code is done, they care when it's done and deployed. I suppose my experience is skewed by the fact that I've spent a lot of my career in startups where sales (or even the CEO) want the code deployed ASAP because they want to demo it.
What about the source data makes it so difficult to clean up? It feels like nothing has progressed since the days of the first ping pong ball suit even though cameras and image processing have become infinitely more capable.

Consider how widely affected contemporary machine learning models are by adversarial examples [1]. I don't know the specific approach used by Tesla or their release process, but I would not be surprised at all if their software has similar shortcomings.

Granted, a ton of active research is going on trying to prevent these sorts of problems, but it definitely isn't a solved problem.

Basically, ask yourself this: how robust is this software? How are you measuring that?

The case of Transformers or Ninja Turtles isn't an issue because while the content is being essentially an advertisement, it's content people actually want to watch.

The same would apply to let's say a documentary about TV advertising. Sure, it's going to contain ads in it, but it's ads you actually want to watch because they're part of the content you wanted to watch - a documentary about TV ads.

Have you tried checking other dictionaries? Websters has a more accurate definition:

Atheist: a person who does not believe in the existence of a god or any gods

This is consistent with atheist writers like Dawkins.

Can you explain the theological background of Chambers, since you seem to think he's some sort of authority on the matter?

Edit: This from wikipedia on the Chambers dictionary:

The Chambers Dictionary is widely used by British crossword solvers and setters, and by Scrabble players (though it is no longer the official Scrabble dictionary). It contains many more dialectal, archaic, unconventional and eccentric words than its rivals, and is noted for its occasional wryly humorous definitions. Examples of such definitions include those for éclair ("a cake, long in shape but short in duration") and middle-aged ("between youth and old age, variously reckoned to suit the reckoner").[2] These jocular definitions were removed by the publisher in the 1970s, but many of them were reinstated in 1983 because of the affection in which they were held by readers.

So you're using a dictionary whose purpose is entertainment, rather than accuracy.. and insisting this is the definition we should all use? What a joke.
No, that's exactly why it's being blocked, just because there's worse stuff out there doesn't suddenly make this evil stuff acceptable
Have you tried PC VR recently? It's very compelling.

There are obviously still lots of things that could be improved, but high resolution isn't necessary to make VR "compelling" any more HD screens were necessary to make console gaming compelling.

Cliff Click (of JVM fame) did a presentation once on an open addressing hash table implementation that he believed was lock free (it used CAS and possibly some memory barriers). I wouldn't want to argue with Cliff Click on concurrency but everybody makes mistakes. I haven't checked back if anyone found any bugs yet.

I'm also curious if or how that implementation would translate to other languages. What he did might not be declarable in the Rust ownership model.
That’s one of those thorny AI-human problems, though — if I crash 1 in 10 drives, it’s my fault, and therefore much easier to rationalize to be, well, not my fault. If my Tesla crashes 1 in 100 drives, it’s a faulty machine and an obvious death trap.

In my country (Norway) you're not allowed to target children with marketing.

Coca-cola has already had a smack on their fingers for using "influencers" whose primary audience are kids on their channel [1].

This might hit google directly if enough of this stuff happens. The end result I hope is that videos with kids are forced private so the parents can't use them as props to make money. It's not like the children have any say when their life is being spread out on the net.

The US which is the main base of google has unfortunately not ratified the convention on the rights of children [2] but in article 16 of this treaty [3] it is stated that children have a right to privacy.

They are deterministic.
Rust loves it and has no intention to secure/fix it neither. They even call it "memory-safe".
Sure but for a 1-2 second grab extrapolation + accelerometers should do the trick.
It's not social determinism. It's more like "nature and nurture."

But I will try to be clearer in the future.

If memory overhead (load factor) isn't a big issue, readers may also find cuckoo hashing rather interesting. (Theoretically, it has a worst-case constant lookup time. Learned about it in one of my university algorithms classes, but have yet to see an implementation in practice.)

Well, that's why the article doesn't propose simply ditching P-values, it proposes reporting confidence intervals instead. Not only to they provide more information (by simultaneously conveying both statistical and practical significance) they're also easier to interpret correctly without special training.
I don't think it's as black-and-white as that.

There can be statistical differences on average, without requiring that every brain is unambiguously classifiable as "male" or "female" on a biological level based on that trait.

For example- if a drug works well for 80% of women and 15% of men, that implies that there are some men whose brains utilize the "female" pain pathway and some women who use the "male" pain pathway. It also suggests that that drug might be a good first line of treatment for female patients and a secondary or tertiary line of treatment for male patients. Trying to classify brains like this is like trying to classify sex based on height- on average it sort of works, but there's enough overlap between the heights of women and men that you can't actually do it reliably on an individual level.

So tl;dr I don't think that "clear biological differences between the male and female brains" is actually a reasonable conclusion that can be drawn from this research.

They can't both be used, and c'mon; is this really a debate? You cannot use _both_ of them and charge them at the same time. The best experience comes from using _both_ of them simultaneously. So, it's a workaround. It's fine, it's whatever, but it's also silly to get haughty about it as if there were no impact whatsoever.
