The most likely risk are not the majority of psychedelics themselves, but the quality of the substance you are getting as well as potency and "therapeutic" window. As they are controlled substances, what you are getting…
A big problem are the perverse incentives researchers are facing. The only thing that matters is publishing in prestigious journals, otherwise your career is pretty much over (no real chance to get tenure). Universities…
The "second concern held by some" is clearly a rhetorical figure of speech to make it sound as if they are not really sharing it, although the rest of what the authors say only deals with this exclusively. The first…
You could translate it as "how dare you trying to sabotage my career by attacking my research", something like this. It is fairly common that researchers build their careers on single results/breakthroughs and those…
I think this paper summarises everything that is wrong with academia and why a lot of people have enough and are looking for ways out. A second concern held by some is that a new class of research person will emerge —…
You don't necessarily have to only lift in order to gain health benefits. Generally I would simply recommend to pick a sport and try to become the best you can be and the rewards will follow soon, not only physically…
Maybe it is because the anglophiles assume that because they feel Shakespeare is such an outstanding figure in their own culture he must have the status in every other and cannot possible fathom something else. The…
I think it would be too easy to say that it was only the German government responsible for what happened. Below is a key quote: What has happened? What has happened is quite simple. Those elements of the population…
Einstein's most genius insight was probably not to make any initial assumptions and simply to follow his thought experiments regardless of the outcome (even if they contradicted contemporary dogma). The idea that time…
> In Germany, it is thanks to European monetary policy that artificially depresses the Deutsche Mark, allowing for cheaper exports and lower costs for German companies, as well as a captive market whose currency is…
In Germany the cutting edge research is usually done by specific research organisations that do no or only very little teaching such as the Max Planck Institutes, Helmholtz Association, Fraunhofer, etc. Of course, as a…
PL/Python is NOT supported: http://www.databasesoup.com/2013/11/first-look-at-postgresql...
PL/Python is very unlikely to appear soon unfortunately because it is an untrusted language in PostgreSQL. EDIT: you are right, PL/Python is supported as well. I only read the "Language Extensions :PL/Perl, PL/pgSQL,…
It is not stupid it actually makes sense for ETL workflows where you load raw data into unlogged tables and transform them in the database into the final (logged) representation.
Could be an embassy.
[Current PostgreSQL user] Oracle-like partitioning syntax support (including composite) would be great - although possible through inheritance and triggers/rules, it is the only bigger feature missing in PostgreSQL in…
Thanks, that was a good example indeed! Improving the memory traffic was actually really important because the real-life application has N=20M+, up to 200M. Around 85M calculations per seconds is pretty impressive I…
The Ultrafast Shape Recognition (USR) algorithm is a very simple yet interesting application used in drug discovery that I tried speeding up with Numba (the similarity calculation part). The NumPy implementation looks…
It is a bit unfortunate that you have to "unroll" your code to get the most out of Numba. Hopefully at some point it will be able to translate NumPy functions such as np.abs(X - y).sum(axis=1)) efficiently into LLVM.…
Here "organic form" means organic as in organic chemistry, not organic food.
