I disagree, with a caveat. Assuming your review tool supports "Resolved" or "No Action Required" comments (ours does), it's rather easy to distinguish something that is informative from something that is actionable. I am now recalling that some review tools don't distinguish open/unresolved comments from resolved or informative comments, which would make this more of a trade-off than an obvious win.
This is an interesting article. Behind every scientific discovery, there are many sacrifices. These sacrifices are really not noticed in today's fast life and ocean of information. Hope new generations will understand this.

This is interesting because when I learned all this stuff the P value wasn't the only measure of study design quality. There was also statistical power which here would related to number of coin flips performed. You simply can't flip a coin 5 times and say you have statistically valid results you would be laughed out of the auditorium. Maybe it requires 1000 independent trials, or 10,000, but certainly not 5. The P value was just about confidence level of rejecting the null hypothesis, but much more has to go into study design in order to make it valid.

I have not done this sort of work since the early 2000s, I am relying on memory and a couple of quick web searches.

There's no way to guard against all false positives. And while changing the P value cutoff would reduce them, it would also increase false negatives.

The answer doesn't lie in hard-line stances for or against P values or with an alternative that will have its own set of problems. It lies with greater education of those who run experiments & those who consumer the literature about proper interpretation and other methods of analysis that should be used along side it.
I'm confused on why everyone is focusing on this so much. It matters on interest-based loans because a higher APR means you are going to pay more in X amount of time. But here you are paying a flat fee, regardless of the amount of time it takes to repay.

Why does the APR matter?

Speaking of tiling window managers in new environments, I’ve had a really positive experience with Sway, the i3-compatible Wayland compositor. Almost everything you need can be done, someone has even written an OBS plugin capable of capturing from it (and any other wl_roots-based compositor.) I think when Chrome, Firefox and Electron all ship a WebRTC build capable of capturing from wl_roots based compositors, there will be no practical downsides to Sway over X11/i3. (There’s already plenty of cool things about it today.) That could take a while, though, since upstream WebRTC does not have support for this today.

Is there a christian god, absolutely not (same with any other religion claiming their god is the one).

I think that's the nuanced position of Dawkins that gets lumped into a bag of atheism.

I feel like malls have potential as massive culinary incubators, with the tired chain clothes store replaced with massive arrays of experimental restaurants and bars. This is anecdotal, but every 1-2 weeks I go to a mall I work near for lunch, yet for the two years I have been doing this I have yet to purchase any non-food merchandise (though I got close when browsing one of the bookstores).
There are tools for that stuff. You can run the unit tests a million times and count the failures for starters. You can also run tests under TSAN which often just points out races. You can also inject clocks or other dependencies and simply create the precondition necessary and advance time manually to show the problem.

COBOL consultancy is a niche, but one that pays poorly (against what internet common sense would have you believe). All the COBOL consultants I know are not doing particularly well; they are mostly old guys who naturally ended up in that role. They occasionally must switch jobs when their services are no longer needed. The new jobs don't pay well either. They usually do not want or can learn new skills.

There is young blood learning COBOL, but really, they don't stay long doing that. If you're young and in tech, there's a world of more exciting opportunities out there.

"It doesn’t help that Etsy changed its transaction fee from 3.5 percent to 5 percent last June — fair enough, it had been flat for 13 years, but still, the timing."

Wait. That's not how this works. This is not a price, it's a proportion.

Anyway, it sounds like Etsy has decided to become a more general online retailer, which does open it to a much larger market. It also removes any barriers protecting Etsy from being marginalized by larger retailers. I hope the management really is smarter than everyone else in the field.
I don't follow. I can post the exact same listing on FBM and CL, and with CL I get bombarded with scammers, and with FBM I never do. In fact, with FB, I'm not sure how you would ever get contacted by scammers at all, since it's tied to your FB account, so someone would have to go to the trouble of maintaining a fake FB account just for this purpose, and it would presumably be quickly flagged and disabled as soon as a couple people got obvious scam communications from it. For better or worse, the "real person" feature about FB and lack of privacy, actually seems to work in its favor here. Anyone with a phone (or who can spoof a phone number in your area code from Nigeria) can contact you on a CL listing, whereas with FB the bar is much, much higher and there's a lot more policing.

I think donating is the least-effective way to help Firefox. Mozilla Corporation sits on half a billion in assets and 2% of their revenue goes to Mozilla Foundation. That in itself is a lot of money, but what we might overlook is that Mozilla Foundation owns Mozilla Corporation, owns the other 98% of their revenue too, and owns their half-billion in assets. Let's talk about their funding again when their assets stop growing.

In the meantime one thing we can do to help is to not create a mono-culture "Designed for Chrome" internet that excludes Firefox. Just ignore Google's defacto-standards unless they follow the process to become shared standards.

> If Microsoft hadn't embraced open source around the time Satya Nadella took over

Microsoft were already well down the road to "embracing" open source before Nadella took over as CEO. The movement inside the company began around 2006 with folks like Scott Guthrie, Scott Hanselman, Phil Haack, Rob Conery and others pushing for more openness. Two open source licenses were created by Microsoft to accommodate such works (MS-PL and MS-RL[0]). When ASP.NET MVC was released in 2009 it was open-sourced and shipped with the MS-PL license.

As with any large organisation it takes some time to build up the momentum to change their behaviour and strategy.

This is a very old argument. I got my bachelor's degree in psychology at Harvard in 1993, and was told repeatedly that p-tests are abused, overused, and not terribly useful.

To my mind, the most hackable flaw is that the number of subjects in the study is a term in the denominator of the p-value calculation. Any study with a sufficiently large sample will find "significance" with p<.05, but it won't be meaningful.

We were taught that "effect size" measures were crucial to understanding and interpreting results. If you have p<.05 but a tiny effect size, you're likely not seeing a meaningful difference.
Why would someone averaging <500 miles of driving a year need to own a car?
They certainly don’t agree. There has been 30+ years of objection to p < .05. The fact that many scientists are statistically illiterate doesn’t constitute consensus.

Thank you for confirming my intuitions, I wasn't entirely sure if it was a hard limitation of the way Windows handled... windows or if it was just buggy software. So I guess this new WM suffers from the same limitations?

This experience actually made me wary of Wayland and other X11 replacements because, as far as I understand, they behave similarly. I could be completely wrong about that though because I still haven't completely figured out how Wayland actually works and every time I looked for infos on this particular topic I ended up more confused than when I started.
Please do! I haven't had time to work on it lately, but if there is interest in it I wouldn't mind picking it back up!
I feel like you misread the thread here and jumped hastily into taking an accusatory tone.

The argument in the thread was essentially:

Person One: It's bad to say that one group "took over" an area from another instead of using a term like "demographics shifted."

Person Two: Why is it bad? If someone said that White people "took over" an area it seems unlikely that a negative connotation would be assumed.

You responded with an offhand comment about gentrification being involved with racism, then painted a picture of the person you were responding to as someone who lives in a gated community playing golf with out of touch people.

The thread was already becoming a terrible exercise in whataboutism. This added element of describing commenters as if they were bad guys from 1980's summer camp films made it even worse.
Eavesdropping grey squirrels infer safety from bird chatter
Having a voice assistant be as apolitical as possible is a good thing. As an example, if I ask siri "are you agoraphobic?" and she says "heights scare me, please don't drop me" she's answered me in the affirmative. The only way "I believe in equality for all people" doesn't count as a yes answer for "are you a feminist" is if that's not what being a feminist is.

Apple staying out of that mud-slinging, endless argument is a good thing. Siri answers what she "believes" and lets the user label it as they will.

IMO the expression ‘statistical significance’ is a big part of the problem. Popular reporting of research translates a tiny but discriminable effect size into a SIGNIFICANT effect.
Changing the nomenclature to ‘statistically discriminable’ would go a long way to improving popular understanding.
The mouse could be convenient to resize or rearrange windows. For example, it would be nice if dragging one window onto another swapped them. I think that would be faster than swapping them with i3's shortcuts.
We use hard cutoffs for a bunch of things, they aren't perfect but they are fine.

The problem is that we are imbuing the words "statistical significance" with a whole bunch of math. This would be fine, except for the inconvenient fact that people also want to use the word "significance" as it is defined in English.

It is not only possible, but likely that people will be producing results that are insignificant but statistically significant. I mean seriously, if I tell my boss that the results are statistically significant, how do I expect him to understand that the results might reasonably be insignificant? How do I expect anyone non-technical to take that sentence seriously? You lose all credibility pretty quickly when people start saying that the result is significant except it doesn't matter.

This is even more stupid than calling complex numbers "imaginary" and "complex". Those names are just arbitrary. Statistical significance is overloading words that are likely to come up with meanings other than what they are expected to mean.

Anyway, this is the problem that things like this article are going to. People are treating significance values as though they are significant. They aren't significant, they are statistically significant. It means something different to significance.

For example; if I run an experiment 20 times and get a p value consistent with a 5% chance in one experiment, it is statistically significant but the result is obviously not significant in the English-language meaning of the word.

"Personality over looks" almost sounds like Nice Guy territory to me. It's dating. If you aren't even remotely attracted to the other person, then you're likely to waste both of yall's time with further action. You filter by looks all the time in the wild.

Also, if you're willing to give people-you're-not-attracted-to a chance, how is Tinder any different? Are you saying you are never liked by someone on Tinder that you aren't attracted to? Nothing is stopping you from sticking around for their potentially amazing personality. I bet you just don't because you need some initial attraction like the rest of us whether online or at the bar.

Usually this complaint has to do with men getting no matches. But it's basically men complaining that women with options don't pick them, and online dating sucks because it gives women too many options making it hard for them to compete. It's like country boys complaining about women moving to the city.

The realities of dating were already brutal before online dating.
I use my logs and Keen.io (from the back-end). It's more accurate than an external service like GA. Even if a visitor's browser has JS disabled entirely, it still gets counted.

I filter out certain kinds of visits (such as bots) from the dashboards I look at regularly.

The only problem is that since Keen got acquired they've quietly stopped letting people sign up for their free plan and greatly increased the prices of their paid plans. It's probably only a matter of time before I lose access to my current plan and need to find an alternative.
