Hi, thank you for your answer!

How do you started to do meditation? Maybe it coulde be a plus if I'd do this in the morning!
School. Books. Or the way I did it: Access to Matlab while in University. I learned signal processing just like I learned to program, by playing around and hacking stuff together.

Naturally no-one learns anything in isolation. So bunch of reading is needed regardless of what you do.

Not really. Most people who worked closely with Jobs held the same views, and didn't express them. But read the Isaacson book, see for yourself. Narcissists aren't a role model for self-criticism or a willingness to hear the criticisms of others.

> Heck, his "most failed" company was sold off for $400 million, and ended up domineering the buyer company, saving it and leading it to become the hugest company in America.

You're overlooking several factors -- the influence of very creative people who worked with Jobs, a prime technological opportunity (new technical devices and abilities culminating in the personal computer), and chance.

Of several companies in competition, if you somehow were able to erase anything but superficial differences, one of them would still come out on top, because of a snowball effect in which people decide en masse that they prefer A to B for no particular reason.

'Yes, because my example is meant to caricature psychological "science" -- that's its purpose. Therefore it must have the same logical pitfalls as the class of study it caricatures.'

You explicitly stated that the example was "for those who doubt the central role of explanations in science". That you can throw together an example with a bunch of flaws that produces a flawed result is both unsurprising and not especially damning of any specific one of the flaws - one flaw is enough to be wrong. Therefore, your example is not very persuasive on the issue you claimed it directed at.

If you're just trying to get your jollies lampooning everything that sometimes goes wrong with psych research, that's fine - but present it that way. If you're trying to help people reason better - and possibly find flaws in your own reasoning - isolating particular problems is a much better approach.
What you're saying is factually incorrect.

> Go is pretty low level compared to (even) java

I've found Go and Java to be at the same level of abstraction. Go has interfaces and structs, but leaves out implementation inheritance because its authors feel that's one of Java's bad points. Go also leaves out method overloading which causes us to think hard about what to name the numerous methods.

I don't know about the suitability of Go for Android though. Does Google have a secret project going on?
Could you post a picture? I'm intrigued by the idea of having too much basil - we pay a crazy amount ($1-$2) for maybe a dozen leaves when we make pizza. I've always been afraid that there would be not point in getting a basil plant because we'd strip it bare each time we needed basil.
In the spirit of pharmacology as the subject; I might suggest a Norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) like Methylphenidate (Concerta). It seems to have far less abuse potential. ( Of course this is after exercise and sunlight and therapy have exhausted their potential for results ) Also, don't take with MAOI's. Don't take my advice at all obviously, but I think you ought to research it and speak to doc.

Nice article. I'm 100% with you on the irrelevance of NP-Hardness to AI.
As someone who plays online games, I get really, really annoyed when I'm forced to create a password to log in.

ALL non-secure online sites that need to identify users should allow for Google or Facebook authentication, or I will never try to access the game from my phone or tablet.

I refuse to use the same password everywhere, but that means I have a password vault on my computer. If I need to create a password and I'm on my phone, I simply click "close" (and uninstall if necessary). I sympathize with those "precompromised accounts," given that it's such a user interface failure (not to mention arrogant) to require a new password for every single little service/game/whatever.

OTOH, if I can "login with Google" and/or Facebook, both of those are already authenticated on my phone, and through the magic of OAUTH I can securely connect to your game without needing to generate a password. Certainly having the OPTION to create a password is fine; there will be people who hate Google/Facebook/whatever and who won't use them. But not having the option is an instant fail for me.

Not saying you're doing it wrong, since I don't know what game you're talking about, but I've certainly encountered many games that have no OAUTH options.

Ask HN: Is it possible to do a Startup that's a Research Center?
I was wondering this a few days ago, while reading about Microsoft Research. I pretty sure that is the answer is a negative, but I would like to know if someone already thought about this.

The basic idea is that a Research Center doesn't output products but ideas that can be licensed or sold to third parties. Like a for profit SRI that sells time and access to PhD and equipment to do research.

Could something like this come out of venture funding?

Excellent, thanks!

I have been using 2FA on NameCheap since you added the feature, but it's one of the more annoying implementations -- compare to Google's 2FA setup, for example. There I have to jump through the hoop of getting an SMS once a month (and verify my password a bit more frequently).

For NameCheap, it's every single time I log in, which translates to every single time I need to do or check something in my account.

This is probably only a minor annoyance for most of your customers; for me it sometimes means I can't sign in. I live in an area with fairly poor mobile coverage, so internet access & ability to receive an SMS do not always coincide. I'm also not tied to my mobile, so I may need to go find it where it's charging downstairs (or plug it in if it's dead) before I can continue.

I'd really appreciate either the option of a code generator (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.), or a longer "remember-me" time -- it's rather more likely that my phone would be stolen than my laptop... so letting the laptop I've just double-authenticated be a "thing I have" is perfectly valid.
i see what your saying- management that uses plants as a solution is probably shitty, so presence of plants increases the likelihood of shitty management. thats a weird thing that should have a name, seems like people in statistics would run into that more than once. so some variable is positively correlated with satisfaction, but also positively correlated with a variable that is negatively correlated with satisfaction, and the negative variable has a stronger magnitude of effect
You missed the point of Mosh. SSH transfers a bidirectional stream of bytes between server and client. It uses TCP as transport. You can combine SSH with tmux to preserve your sessions as tmux sessions. If you use SSH to access your tmux session you fixed a part of the problem. Your client can now roam by reattaching the tmux session from a new SSH connection.

The other half of the problem remains: SSH transfers unmodified byte streams between client and server over TCP. On networks with high latency or high packet loss this design doesn't work. Mosh fixes this part of the problem by redefining the problem. Instead of transferring every byte in both directions it runs a terminal emulator on both sides and the problem turn into: keep the terminal emulator states in sync. The server sends patches from the last confirmed client state to the current server state to the last known client address:port pair via UDP. The client sends the user input (and pings) to the server via UDP. This design allows Mosh to skip over lost messages.
They're not porn, people pointing it out aren't whining about nothing. You are misusing a word in a way which completely changes the interpretation. Calling something "porn" generally implies nudity, if not actual sex, or at the very least, revealing lingerie. The pictures appear to be of women in bikinis. At least one of them seems to be posing next to a car as you would find at an auto show.

If someone posted an article with screen shots of actual porn, it would be distracting to the point that you would assume he had psychological problems.

The term you're looking for is "swimsuit models", "pin-up models", or "booth babes".

None of these are the "Lena" image. That image is defensible in an image compression context because it's standardized. It's unfortunate that a cropped photo out of Playboy became the standard for image compression, but someone could agree that it's an unfortunate choice, but continue to use it because it is relatively standard. Similarly, others may find its content distracting and unprofessional and use a different image.

And if you want to make a point and try to move people in the direction of realizing that using scantily clad women as a decorative touch is unacceptable in a professional context, you would do well to not exaggerate this and equate it with porn. By calling this "porn" you lump yourself in with the caricature of straw man feminists equating inappropriate remarks with rape.

> To summarize, antidepressants do work: their effect is statistically significant.

This is deliberately misleading. You just explained that statistical significance is not clinical significance, but saying "antidepressants do work" strongly implies that they subjectively improve a person's state. These are words you chose, words that contradict the study's conclusion with respect to human subjects in all but the most severely depressed.

> But they don't work very well: their effect is not clinically significant in any but the most severe cases.

This is like saying, "the skydiver was perfectly all right until he hit the ground." It's misleading. If he used language like this, a clinician could be accused of unethically misleading his patients.

The reason for the wide gap between statistical and clinical significance is to guard against the distorting effect of self-reporting, always a risk in a study like this. I want to repeat what you said above, but broken down:

(a) "To summarize, antidepressants do work:"

(b) "their effect is statistically significant."

But according to your own analysis, item (a) does not -- cannot -- acquire its authority from item (b), for the reason that statistical significance doesn't lead to the claim that these drugs "work" in the commonly accepted sense, i.e. subjective improvement in a human subject.

I refer again to the difference between science and pseudoscience I quoted earlier -- pseudoscientists seek confirmation, scientists seek falsification. The outcome for the layman? If a scientist cannot falsify something, it acquires a small bit of temporary credibility, but if a pseudoscientist says something works, well, read the study behind the words.

> Groovy seems to have stagnated outside of its use with gradle

I don't think Gradle will be using Groovy for too much longer. I looked at the source code for the recently released Gradle 2.0 and they'd replaced almost every Groovy source file with a Java version - only Groovy files specifically related to the DSL were left. And I suspect Gradle will soon open up its configuration as an API any language can use.

There's no mention of error handling, which is what really makes Windows batch files completely hopeless for anything involving more than one or two commands. Being able to write code with exceptions and having it compiled to the corresponding mess of ERRORLEVEL and GOTO would be sweet!

Teenage pregnancy in the first world has little to do with either sex education or values. Having kids is the default mode of people. The instinct to reproduce is suppressed in the wealthier class, because they have a huge opportunity cost to do so. Poor people don't have much of an opportunity cost, and indeed have economic incentives to have kids (more welfare support). 60% of girls in the study didn't have kids as teenagers, yet only 4% of the whole sample went to college. It wasn't like the people gave up a lot by having kids.

"A sample ivory program decorated with an ensures clause, checking the return value against a specification. This is a trivial case where the specification and implementation are identical."

Funny, I had a formal specification and verification course at uni, and I always felt I was writing Haskell when I was writing specifications. When you're writing Haskell to specify your Java, why not write Haskell instead and be done with it? Of course supposedly at some point it breaks down and specification won't be so trivial, but I'm not fully convinced.

Obviously that would be part of the solution. But remember we're talking Baltimore here, not Buttfuck, Mississippi.

Compulsory abortion is a contentious issue, but at the very least I think it should be compulsory for anyone getting pregnant under the age of eighteen. If we have the legal fiction that <18 year olds are too immature even to be able to consent to sexual intercourse, I have no idea why we're okay with them actually having children of their own.

In the old days we used to adopt them out, but adoption has its own drawbacks. Now we as a society have become comfortable with the idea of abortion as not-murder I see no reason not to use it in cases like this.
