People are talking about freezer spray, but really you need to substitute parts, first, until you narrow it down. PSU, RAM, GPU, motherboard, CPU. Start with RAM -- it's easiest and most likely, and you can get along on half for a while, just to see.

RAM, PSUs and motherboards are remarkably cheap to replace.
>You’re saying that the people who do get jobs would’ve gotten them had they gone through the program or not?

Yes that's what I'm saying. Except for the very top tier programs, no one cares that you have bootcamp on your resume.

>Looks like Lambda school is 9 months now (I though it was 6 but perhaps they increased it). That is equivalent to a full academic year...whats your experience with Lambda school grads and are they objectively much better than one graduating from an in person one?

I’ve never hired anyone from Lambda school. I did spend some time looking into it when I’ve seen it pop up on a few resumes. The threshold for repaying tuition is 50k a year and it’s 17% per year for 2 years (capped at $30k). That’s about 3x more than what the OMSCS at Georgia Tech costs. And since you can get federal loans for GA Tech, you can have a similar income based repayment plan (capped at 10% of income above 1.5x the poverty level).

For an online course, that is way too much.

I also found that there’s a guy claiming to be the co-founder who spends his time on reddit arguing with ex-students.

Also other threads with people claiming to be employees arguing with former students. Doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.
Can you elaborate? The tool doesn't require you to learn/know perl, that's just what operates under the hood. I actually chose to exclude any reference to Perl in the title, though it appears a moderator changed it.
I'd assume (hope) they mean to infer data and not invent it.

That's the problem, current MRI's are like taking high-def pictures in raw format 1 pixel at a time. There's loads of redundant information in the raw image encoding. If there was some way to only image the information we needed, the process could go faster.

Adding more "cameras" to our MRI so we can do parallel imaging is expensive.
> The evolution of the french language is not dictated by the Académie, but rather by its use by the french people

> the Académie is actively trying to find french equivalent for [convenient English words] that are coherent with the etymology of the french language

Don't these two sentences you wrote contradict each other? From what I gather, you ARE saying that the French language IS dictated by the Académie, even though you initially wrote the contrary. I'm a little confused.
Not to derail this submission, but thanks for the consideration! See the first sentence at https://github.com/chmln/sd#comparison-to-sed

tl;dr its only find & replace with smart defaults and easy, straightforward syntax because I hated wrangling with sed's quirks. For more features, you're better off with sed. But if you're like me and only really use sed for find/replace, you will have a good time with sd.

I have talked at length with several people in the FastMRI project and in my opinion it is actually very dangerous. There is no feasible way to validate that such a model will not hallucinate normal tissue in the presence of a rare abnormality. The argument often used is that advanced reconstruction techniques such as compressed sensing have not required validating against very rare abnormalities, however when deep neural networks get involved you have a nearly universal function approximator whose behavior is nowhere near as bounded.

The FDA will probably set the low bar of validating that the reconstruction algorithm fares well in the face of a few abnormalities and call it a day, instead of the proper (admittedly infeasible) validation of testing against all abnormalities that the reconstruction algorithm will encounter. Facebook will probably happily jump over this low bar, and patients will get hurt.

Stories like this are why I cannot in good faith donate to large charities. There needs to be more details on the inner workings on these charities, and even if they are in good faith it seems that smaller (and likely religious) organizations do the work more efficiently.
Yeah of course, different people will have different experiences. Mine was being never able to make wifi work, random destruction of the GUI when I plugged an external monitor, difficulty to install and configure eastern languages IME, sound issues, etc. That was a very instructive period as undergraduate in informatics, but I got tired after a while to constantly fix my system instead of getting things done. Still using it as a server OS, where it shines.
If only the internet experience was more like wandering though the shelves of a library.
One can have “experience” with something, and not “know” it.

Could just as easy say: “I have experience in scenarios where I must use python or run its scripts in an evironment, and it has been a headache, but I can’t say I dislike the language because I haven’t needed to explicitly create programswith it.”
There are multiple companies founded around your observation that 12 weeks doesn’t cut it. Lambda School takes nine months and Turing School takes seven months. Both are much more expensive than community college but they also provide far more support and instructional hours than you’d get in the equivalent time at a community college and Lambda School’s programme integrates the job hunt.

Turing School can arrange loans for tuition ($20,000) and Lambda School’s students almost all pay via an income share agreement, where once they’re earning over $50,000 a year they pay 17% of pre-tax salary up to a maximum of $30,000 over two years.

Neither of their programmes are comparable to a Master’s in CS but they're roughly comparable to a graduate diploma or an assiciate’s degree.

Don't ask for $1k in a situation like that.

Ask for $10k, maybe even 15 or 20.

It's harder to get them to say yes, period, since that requires actual action on somebodies part.

So you might as well make the bigger ask, and then if negotiation ensues you can "settle" and still get more than you would have gotten by asking for a smaller amount initially.

This can make it feel like a win for both sides.
Not everyone here lives in the US. Making SV salaries here, where 99+% of people are making under $80k/year, would be obscene. If I had access to that kind of money, I'd be putting it into better housing (penthouse?) long before ever thinking of buying a car like that.
Yep, Apple support forums are absolutely dreadful. Way worse than Windows and way, way worse than Linux. You will find virtually nothing more than well-intentioned fumblers reciting some irrelevant plist tweak that maybe appeared to fix their problem.

Say what you will about Microsoft--the MSDN forums and technical articles have some meat on the bone. People who actually understand, and are paid to understand at a deep level, DCOM, the registry, or whatever, they are out there. You've got the MVP program, super built-out partner channels, etc.

With Apple, my distinct impression is that there do exist people who understand MacOS deeply, but they have zero interest in participating in the support communities, due to the way those communities appear to be built and (not) prioritized by Apple Inc. If there's anything even a little bit like the MS partner network, well, I'll be... really surprised. So all you get is duffers and superstitious folk, and the feedback loop intensifies the problem.
I find it somewhat interesting that purely analytical techniques can be replicated using CNNs. Sorta goes to show that there's a sorta divergence in a purely EECS method vs some of the newer approaches that are able to integrate advanced signal processing with deep learning. Hopefully these hybrid approaches are able to advance the field. That said, MOST of the current publications out there on this topic don't seem to be pushing the field that far compared to conventional signal processing approaches.
This is indeed called managing expectation.

There are various strategies one can "manage" their boss in return so that their expectation always remains at an optimal level, allowing them to easily satisfy their boss or even exceed all their expectations.

Everything can be manipulated, hacked, or "managed" as we professionally call it, as long as things continue to be operated by human. Even the largest corporations are susceptible and WILL succumb to this. Facebook and fake news are real evidences.

Their weaknesses just need to be identified so it can be exploited. External forces can even join together with more resources combined to execute their plans. It's not very difficult to identify weaknesses for many targets today, GREED and PROFIT.

Many corporations today only focus on their quarterly growth reports and would do absolutely anything to satisfy their investors. They don't even pay attention to their own customers, let alone those external forces.

You're right! For users this is absolutely true.

Yet, almost all the companies that you might think of as potentially interested in RSS are platforms. You cannot sell ads in a protocol.

This is the core of why Twitter has replaced RSS. RSS is better for users, but Twitter is better for publishers and platforms. So users wind up following content.

Who can’t afford to live near where they work?

Public service workers like teachers, policemen, garbage collectors, etc. All of those jobs are in demand all across the U.S. If they can’t find jobs in San Francisco (just as an example), they will go to a part of the country where they can find a job. Let the cities compete for them by offering a better salary vs cost of living equation. Once San Francisco can’t get enough qualified people, they will have to pay them more and the taxpayers will have to pay more in taxes - instead of putting it all on landlords.

For private employees, they will have to pay enough to attract workers to either entice workers to work for them, or the potential business owners will see that the numbers don’t make sense and set their business up somewhere else.

If the citizens of San Francisco can’t get the jobs or have the services they want, they will move somewhere else and as the demand for housing decreases, the prices will go down.

Depends on what you're trying to image. Tbh, if it takes 15 mins vs 30 mins to get an image of your knee, it's maybe not really that much of a game changer.

From the perspective of a MRI purchaser (say clinic or hospital director), maybe you can squeeze 1 or 2 more cases in a day, but it seems like a marginal improvement overall. I think cardiac is clearly the exception where you bring on board potentially new functionality with quicker acquisition.

Ice is causing the injuries. Yes Ice.

Growing up in the 60’s my next door neighbor, Eddie, an elderly man, who played semi-pro and a little pro ball. His cousin is Stanley Coveleski, a pitcher who is in the hall of fame, he still holds some World Series records, Stanley’s two brothers were pretty good as well.

Anyway, Eddie actually knew most of the greats, Babe, Ty, had a lot of pictures hanging out, playing cards, drinking, barnstorming etc. Eddie told me back in the late 60’s that ice was ruining the arms of pitchers. Eddie was a catcher and for barnstorming trips he got to catch a lot of great pitchers. Eddie said the icing of arms was what was causing pitchers to have so many problems. Eddie said that when you apply ice you stop the healing process, then the stresses and damages don’t get fully repaired, keep repeating and eventually something fails. He predicted that the problem would keep getting worse, because they were starting to have kids ice their arms in little league, creating very unstable arms at an early age.

A few years ago the guy who invented the RICE protocol admitted that he had no clinical basis for using ice. He used it because everyone else was using it, and that it was probably doing more harm than good, because the ice was removing the small amount of inflammation, signaling the body to stop the repair.

Eddies told me that for kids coming up they should keep them on a pitch count and give them more rest, and never any ice, let the body recover on its own. The body will build up the ligaments and tendons to combat the repeated stress, making recovery faster and easier over time. Because back in the day guys would throw 40 or 50 complete games a year and you can’t do that without having a “gorilla arm”, he said all great pitcher’s pitching arm!looked different than their other arm, you could see the buildup, the arms weren’t bigger just different.

Eddie was 75 and could still drop down into a catchers squat and bounce right up, then he’d say, “no ice”.

Turns out the guy was right, unless you’ve got compartment syndrome where you have a dangerous swelling problem you should let your body heal itself naturally. The little bit of swelling is your body putting blood and other fluids at the injury site to enact repairs, and using ice do remove those fluids is dumb. It’s like lowering a moderate fever when you are sick, you are compromiseing your bodies ability to fight the infection. Eddie told me that when he felt himself getting sick when he was younger he would go to a sauna and sweat it out, but now that he was older he’s take the hottest bath he could stand for as long as he could stand it. He lived into his 90’s and I never remember him being sick. I do the sauna trick when I’m sick, and it usually drastically reduces the severity and length of the cold or flu.

I've been part of a 4500+ member group of Google+ users trying to get any sort of response or assistance out of Google since the G+ shutdown was announced. That's a large set of the core G+ userbase of ~10 - 100k users, with probably 10-20k as the core cohort.[1]

https://old.reddit.com/r/plexodus/comments/9ulvr0/dear_googl...

That was submitted to multiple channels on G+, to the Google Press email address, and through numerous Googler contacts. No response (though many of the issues were, and often only in the past few weeks and days, addressed, though others never were).

It's been exceedingly difficult to get any response, and that's included what's effectively been a war against us by much of the Google+ Help community moderators. Google shut down the Communities on Google+ itself for Community owners and moderators, in one case for six weeks with no notice at all, in another, with at best a few hours' notice.

https://old.reddit.com/r/plexodus/comments/aev39g/google_shu...

The details of this sort of behaviour tend toward petty and tedious, but that's precisely what's been seen:

1. I've made (or inspired) several estimates of total Google+ user activity, beginning in 2015 using the services own sitemaps to show that only 9% of profiles were active at all and that a fraction of a percent could be considered regular public posters. That's not all Google+ activity, but it's a very, very large share of it.

Stone Temple Consulting's follow-up study, based on my methods, looking at 500,000 profiles, gives a pretty solid view, and showed 50-100k highly active posters. There's a fair bit of churn at the top due to spam accounts:

The article points out that different cancers respond differently. High-mutation cancers are the most likely to be effectively treated with drug combinations or by using dosing cycles to manage the cancer.

There’s usually a metabolic cost to maintaining any kind of drug resistance. When the drug isn’t present that cost confers no benefit.

As always, cancer isn’t one disease and there won’t be any single silver bullet. Just lots of different strategies, eventually selected by sequencing a specific tumor to determine the most effective one.

To be honest I am highly skeptical that FB would be able to have the sort of institutional capacity to launch any sort of medical device health product. It takes a non trivial amount of effort and time to fully productize it (in terms of system integration/ product testing/ FDA submission). Unless there is involvement with one of the major MRI manufacturers, I don't foresee this going far. Many more players in the game that actually have a decent shot of getting something like this to market.
The thing is, how do you prevent stagnation? People equate good platforms to ones where they have a degree of control, which results in atomic communities. Self reinforcing if you let them.
Maybe it's because I'm a Protestant who's not particularly invested in Roman Catholic social teaching and so I haven't learned the nuances, but it seems to me that when you apply distributism to an industrial or post-industrial society and work out the kinks you end up with either capitalism or socialism.

It's straightforward to apply distributism to an agrarian society where land is the main source of wealth: split up the farmland among a bunch of smallholding farmers.¹ But once a meaningful part of your economy is in capital-intensive industries, you have a decision to make: do you allow private individuals to accumulate capital or not? If you do, you soon have a capitalist society. If you do not, or you allow them to accumulate capital but not to benefit from it, you end up with a socialist society. The examples in the Wikipedia article confirm this impression.

Distributism looks to me like someone took the principle of subsidiarity and the role of the family, saw that they got more respect in the late middle ages, and pined for the economic system of that era. It would be interesting and productive to re-examine some of the underlying assumptions there.

¹ Whether land reform is just is a separate issue; at least it is possible.
