There's a small army of PhDs doing this right now, NIH-funded and in commercial research shops.

A radiologist still must look at every single slice for liability reasons for the foreseeable future. That's the real time cost.

I work for a neurosurgeon in image-guided surgical planning research. One of the challenges is segmentation (labeling) of target areas to use in navigation. (radiologists generally don't do this, for various reasons). I've used some of the best commercial software, and seen some of the top research algorithms. With these, for the `easiest` tumors, we still have to semi-manually choose the region on every 3rd or 4th slice. The best algorithms will interpolate the other slices based on essentially fitting along a levelset. For a typical tumor, it can take 20-40 minutes to do this task - using the best available software!

This is `not` radiology, it's image labeling. It's orders of magnitude simpler than radiology.

There are some promising techniques to, for example, automate detection of changes in volume of some radiographically questionable area (after manual labeling for the first scan). At best, this will add information with no extra time cost.
Open source != trustworthiness.

This is a very tough cookie to crumble. The counter-argument to "we are open source" is that the binaries can potentially be assembled from an altered source code. Ideally, the binaries should be assembled by multiple independent "build points" and compared against vendor's version. There was a secure smartphone OS vendor (the name escapes me ATM, it was several years ago) and they did just that - an open source project with audited build system - and it was a major hassle by the looks of it.

The only sure way to deal with the trust issue is to not have a conflict of interest to the first place, which is something that seems to be neigh impossible with Chrome.

People want the Zodiac, because the Zodiac is friendly and harmless. There's no "bad" sign to be born under.

Birth order, on the other hand, is something wholly out of your control with substantial rammifications. They aren't always pretty rammifications. People don't really like to hear about that sort of thing.

Chromium source is. Not a small difference.
I hope you can appreciate TDD is not terrible for all developers and that possibly there is something useful in there for some people. As you imply there are many paths to quality software. You risk being as guilty as those you criticize if you try and claim others are "less than" that can produce decent code in a different way than you believe is possible.

TDD definitely has been _very_ positive for my software and there really is no comparison between what I did before and what I've done since as far as bug rates, customer satisfaction, and time to completion. I'm sure you'd agree that those are positive outcomes.

I appreciate you've had lousy examples and that maybe even the majority of TDD practiced is a lousy example. However, the examples you give and what you're describing from these consultants is not remotely the way I've done TDD for the last 5 years. I work extremely hard on refining the concept of testing and when and where to apply different approaches.

As for "you're unlikely at that point to want to go back and change things". I make way more changes in my code and tests before TDD than without. Granted I did spend a year learning how to write tests that hit the right boundaries and wouldn't break everything when I did change architecture strongly. I think any developer needs to dive deep into HOW TO TEST anyway test first or after.

Also, I don't know why anyone would have a hard time deleting code that no longer applied. There is always source control if you really feel like you need it again.

as for "and then it turns out that you relied on an architecture that you don't want to use"

Many TDD practitioners have this concept called "spikes" which is code that you write without tests to get a good idea of how that particular algorithm will work for you and what approach you want to take. However, its throw away code that's is often very procedural and is more just thinking through an issue. This minimizes some of the shifting architecture pain you're referring to.
"Chrome does not collect user information, unless you explicitly opt-in to sharing aggregated usage information and crash reports with Google"

OR if you don't opt in to anything and you simply type some things into your Chrome Omnibox which get sent to Google for suggestions, or if you don't opt in to anything and you simply mistype a URL and that send data to Google for more helpful error pages, or if you don't opt in to anything and Google's phishing and malware service collects sites you're visiting. Oh, and where you don't opt in to RLZ, but you get it anyway.

As I said on Twitter, I'm not really bothered by these things, but it's disingenuous to pretend they don't exist or to respond to peoples' privacy concerns by insisting that aggregate usage stats is the only information Google collects.
I assume you're trying to say that if I actually asked for something, I might get it. Good point, and I agree!
The better your customer service, the less good your product needs to be. Especially when you get started, you want people to be forgiving of your product mistakes.

"... I can't always just drop whatever project I'm currently working on and start doing "cool new stuff". I have responsibilities and commitments to my adviser and my colleagues. ..."

There is a great section on "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman" with Feynman describing burnout. From what I took from this was play as such wasn't time out from commitments but a different way of approaching problems. If you get bored it's a chore but if you play it's not.

Milo of Croton was a real guy, so it's not a "Greek Myth" in the usual sense. Almost certainly most of the exaggerated stories told about him are apocryphal, though.

Legends say he carried his own bronze statue to its place at Olympia, and once carried a four-year-old bull on his shoulders before slaughtering, roasting, and devouring it in one day.

I guess I must be old school. My idea of color management in Linux is setting the colors in my Xterm.
I agree with you there. I hated Facebook because I made everyone I ever knew a "friend", and it was depressing because of how dull these people were. I canceled my account and haven't thought about it again; Facebook provided me with no value. I still don't see why other people like it so much; if you want to chat with your friends, why not go get some coffee or beer together?
It’s all about dialogue
Here's a fun story...

While driving home on the Lodge, a car tire goes flat. Pulled over, out there switching the tire, some other fella pulls up. He gets out of his car, walks over and says: "You can have the hubcaps, I just want the battery."
"... FB is recommending people he thought he was already friends with ..."

That would sound right. Must friend a lot of people not to notice silent drops. FB gives you a numeric number on your friends list.

Your idea sucks now go do it anyway
Regarding her points:

1. No one has ever asked about my GPA.

If college is your terminal degree and you know you will never apply for a higher degree, that might make sense.

2. I didn't sleep.

One would hope that not getting straight A's wouldn't induce sleep, but instead would free up time to do more fun/cool/enlightening things. You'd still be sleep deprived.

3. I've forgotten 95% of it.

Not sure that college is designed to impart information.

4. I didn't have time for people.
5. Work experience is more valuable.

These two seem reasonable.
Balanced Diet – The Top 5 Advantages
To my understanding they started providing the option to encrypt only very recently.
My take is obviously that it's bad for the company policy to have this stuff encrypted (any regular guy would have had built-in encryption when making such a sync service).
But on the other hand it would be pretty bad advertising when Firefox always had full encryption. Providing the option (but not making it mandatory) gives the proper advertising/evangelizing arguments.
For speed
I can put in 2 cents here. It makes you think about your API up front. Can you do that others ways (write your documentation first, etc)? Of course so do the approach that works for you. TDD just happens to be my preferred approach.

As for "especially because it emphasizes unit testing" that doesn't mean it frowns on integration or acceptance testing. In fact most practitioners I know write high level end to end tests for the core functionality.
and dont forget to disable safe-browsing (which is pinging google) eg in Firefox "block known blah and bleh sites"
I haven't tried but if you have the Amazon Kindle App installed - you should be able to download the sicp.mobi file from the link above and that should open up with the Kindle app on your tablet.

I would imagine people should want to know that birth order can have profound effects on their personality and disposition: then they can try to actively counteract or encourage those tendencies. What you're not aware of, you can't change.

Signs he is in love
"signs he is in love" If your man is not vocal about his love for you it would be impossible to know if he is really in love. Women do know that some men whose feelings are difficult to understand. Women usually need to find out first about his feelings by asking him, but if a man is interested he may have already told it or if he is not interested he would have ignored the question.
Interesting. I have a fake Facebook account, but I never like or recommend anything using any of the Facebook tools on every website these days. I've bee using the same account for years and all the information is completely inaccurate.

I'm wondering how much longer I can go before I get cut off.
I had barely touched java, and last time I really did was something like 1.2, but I love clojure for any free time work I do. Stuff like Lein helps hide a lot of the painful parts of the java ecosystem (it even has plugins to build .war files for web deployments if you don't need to heavily configure your web.xml file, as well as hiding class path fun during development). There are also emacs clojure modes/etc and paredit works as well.
I'm in that same boat...
You cannot change the URL like that. URL need to be in same origin as the current URL to be changed.
How do these ability manifest? I suspect what you might be seeing is latest demand. There are a lot of people that would see the doctor more often, but often don't due to prices. Once access and prices become more reasonable they seek out medical services they normally wouldn't have.
OTOH such unique pattern makes tracking much easier once face-detection system is trained for it.
How is Spotify "neutered" without Facebook? I've never connected it to Facebook and everything works fine for me, including sharing playlists with other users.
I've already explained why this framing is incorrect: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3034628

So, go ahead and check out a release branch, set the "Official" build flag yourself, wait anywhere from 2-8 hours for the binaries to get built, and verify it against the bits we ship.

Ts ts. Those people who think because they uncovered an idea (which wasnt even their) they also uncovered the possibility for the whole humanity to do a whole new range of stuff.
It's not even research material, its idea and concepts. And it's not concepts about physics, its pure 1+1 logic, no magic, no extremely hard to think of ideas. In fact, having read stuxnet I just wondered "wah, wasnt this done since ages anyway"?
And most knowledgeable people probably though that too.
In the second year of my doctorate, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes; between the effects of the illness (hyperglycaemia makes me very sleepy, which makes it hard to concentrate on anything) and learning to manage it (measuring blood glucose levels, figuring out how much of which insulin I needed, dozens of visits with doctors) I found it very difficult to get any work done on the project I was working on.

That's when I wrote FreeBSD Update and bsdiff, and found new algorithms for matching with mismatches and feedback-free file synchronization. In hindsight, that was probably the most productive year of my life so far -- and all because a life-threatening medical condition forced me to step back from the project I was working on.

Now, you might want to avoid getting hospitalized or losing several years of life expectancy; but I still recommend taking at least a few hours a week to explore new directions. If you got hit by lightning, your colleagues would find a way to replace you; if you get hit by a bolt of inspiration and run off to win a Nobel prize, the same applies.
How many developers were actually using git hooks? I know I have a couple of git hooks, client side, but so far have not had the need to have them server side.

This system seems explicitly designed to confuse the most common face detector, the Viola-Jones system, which is the basis for the face detection you can find in a lot of cameras these days. Note that detection (is there a face in the picture?) is a different task than recognition (whose face is it?). It will probably make face recognition harder as well, but so would wearing sunglasses, a beard or hair over your face.

"But anyway, that's a whole 'nother subject, and I'd rather be coding (or socializing!) than writing."

What you wrote here is insightful and well put. I hope you write more.
If I overreacted, I apologize. I've heard of farmers leasing land, but I've never heard the term "sharecropper" used in a modern setting.

My grandfather's family were sharecroppers in Ireland, so I grew up with view of the practice that may be somewhat one-sided.
It seems plausible to me that the season you are born in (and thus, the season of your gestation) would have an effect. Especially in more dramatic climes, and in times previous to refrigeration, rapid transport of food, climate control. Different foods and vitamins would be available, which do have an effect. There could also be a markedly different social atmosphere in different seasons, lazy summer, forboding autumn, austere winter, hopeful spring.

Thus, it wouldn't be 12 divisions, but perhaps 4 or so (and rotated 180 in the southern hemisphere). And possibly not apparent in modern society.

The best way to deal with this new 'release' is to just ignore it. Can't believe the amount of attention this has garnered. We all need to wake up.
But would the advertisement department of The Washing Post be happy if all advertisements showed up 5 seconds after the content has loaded?

I can almost see how that conversation could go down. "Our users are staring at half-rendered content during the 15 seconds our site takes to load! Scramble the web team! That's blank real estate that could use some ads on it!"
You can download all of your data from facebook now. It's a link at the bottom of your account settings. Only thing of importance missing is your comments you left on other's status updates. To think if Facebook bit the dust that someone else wouldn't do something with that data is almost unthinkable at this point.

Thanks for the information, I have never seen this stated officially anywhere.

>It would be nice if . . . there were an "unflag" button.

Uh, there is: when you click on "flag" it turns into "unflag", and when you click on that, it turn back into "flag".
First, that functionality should be part of the browser, not of the webpage.

This is why I prefer a bookmarklet, for the specific (of the 100s possible) social sharing site I happen to like to use.
"I agree that there is a serious criticism here, and that sufficiently deep thinking is underrated."

Exactly. The criticism of TDD is (or should be, imo) about the "Driven" part, not so much the "Tests" part. Using conformance to an increasing number of tests as a hill climbing metric and a substitute for deep thinking(sometimes expressed as the "TDD is not about testing, it is about design") gets you stuck on local minima, a point Peter Seibel delineates clearly in his blog post on the subject .

I do disagree with you somewhat in that I think Ron Jeffries ( and most of the Agile evangelist/conference speaker/methodology-book-author types for that matter) are dishonest gurus who couldn't code their way out of a paper bag, but reasonable people can disagree here.
A professor is a "high-ranking" teacher at a university. You can have a professor in pretty much any field, so there are math professors.

I don't see how that is any different with the privacy settings in Facebook.

And I think it's superior to a diary in that it's not only recording my thoughts on something, but also the minutiae of my day to day, whom I've associated with and my interactions with them, etc.

I'm a little surprised at the responses my original post received actually. Am I the only one that uses Facebook for this purpose?
I guess, but the implication is that it's bash doing the work, when it is clearly not.
One of my clients is a porn site, and we're currently debating whether it would be a good idea to even give users the option to post what scene they're watching on Facebook. Some users will legitimately want that (they don't care if people know), but we would rather err on the side of not publicly embarrassing people.
hm, if the only way to find out that someone de-friended you is to see it in your timeline, may be this "friend" is not really a friend for you anyway?
The author needs therapy. I'm not being funny or retaliatory.

A preoccupation with evolution is a sign of needing therapy, for example. Soon as I saw "game theory", knew we were dealing with a sad sad person.

Dwell on that which a pure and wholesome.

Dieting doesn't work, does it? Here's what Jesus said:

24 “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ 25 When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. 26 Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.”
