Thanks so much for creating and sharing this! Could you point me to any other independent research in this area? Also, as I read related journal articles, I'm trying to understand if the 40Hz sound is binaural (with a…
Not quite, in the book it's clear that by "Deep Work" Newport is specifically referring to difficult tasks which create significant value. The book includes several heuristics for identifying this sort of work. It's…
I actually work in College Park, so it's a nightmare of a commute. My wife and I want to stay this far north because both of our families are here and help out a lot with childcare.
As a fellow Baltimorean, I just wanted to echo this sentiment. I have a one kid, and another on the way, and trying to find a reasonable neighborhood in the city to buy a house in is a nightmare. Really we can decide…
I went through a similar search for a cheap homemade espresso and ended up landing on the 3-cup Moka pot. It's not exactly espresso, but I find it's good enough for me, especially if I put it into a cappuccino or…
I'm not religious at all and still loved 'The Screwtape Letters'. I recently found myself reminded of TSL while watching 'The Good Place'. It's not of nearly the same depth as TSL but plays with some of the same…
I actually think it's almost the opposite in my experience as a physicist. Often graduate students are given the first author position, the position which indicates the most credit, even though in many ways the graduate…
I'm confused. You seem to think everyone on HN agrees with each other.
For most people, living biking distance from work is prohibitively expensive.
Alternatively, I never started using Venmo because I never trusted a third party to have my banking data. Now I use Zelle because it's backed by my bank, and since basically everyone I know now has it by default from…
"If you can rent and invest, you can also buy and invest" Not necessarily, the less you put into the downpayment the more you pay in interest, the less the calculation makes sense. I'm not disagreeing that there are…
I think the point they were trying to make is that, even if you get a large portion of the sale price back, you don't generally end up with much more than if you had rented. Even if you make more than 50% of your money,…
Personally, I find Nielsen and Chuang (Mike and Ike as it's affectionately referred to in the field) to be a good reference, but not great for learning the topic the first time. It's also expensive. I think that Rieffel…
I believe they're referring to this proposal by Gottesman [0]. I will try to explain in layman's terms what is happening: the simplest telescope array you can imagine is just two telescopes separated by what is called…
