"You better agree with consensus" has always been the current culture in science. It's nothing to do with science itself -- just human emotionality. We don't change unless we have to, unless there's overwhelming…
I think this is good advice in general -- you can't really ever go wrong with Noctua. I built a Threadripper workstation last year but went with liquid cooling. However, I put 3 Noctua fans on the radiator and haven't…
I think you mean Camden, NJ.
I came here to write exactly this about Louis. Hell, he was doing that long before he became a pariah. I think that cries of "censorship!" from bien-pensant tech folks are largely overblown, and not only for the reasons…
I'd quibble slightly with the interpretation of the Hazard Ratio (or rate) here and say that it's more like "the instantaneous relative risk (or probability, if you like) of the event of interest [in this case mortality…
Seconded (well, eighth'd, if the rest of the comments are any indication). I got a 6th gen X1C at the end of '18 and it's brilliant. It'd be neat to have a Ryzen option on them in the future, as I have a desktop I build…
You make good points, but you may be missing why OP's comment is getting the upvotes it's getting, or at least why I'd wager it is: he describes the kind of contentment that most of us can't even imagine possessing…
Came here to rave about McElreath. The book is great, as are the attached materials and YouTube lectures. Thumbs way up, especially when Gelman is giving you trouble.
Eh it's just as well, NZ could use an environmental breather from all the tourism. Silver linings.
It really, truly cannot.
This is really helpful, thank you. What you say puts some form and empirical evidence to my concerns about Hackintosh. I guess my gut had it right this time, which is unusual. So you can brick your fancy new homemade,…
Great question. The answer may boil down to the way my memory works. I work in research, so I'm constantly reading and citing papers and studies for lit reviews, general understanding, making sure no one else has done…
Oh yeah for sure, I found everything pretty quickly and it's definitely indispensable. I'd love if it did content search, but file search is great and fast and straightforward.
I didn't know about that upcoming feature. I'm really excited to hear that, so thanks. The PDF thing is a wild oversight, too, but I found SumatraPDF and am really impressed by its light weight and speed and bare-bones…
Yeah that's a great point. I thought about it initially, but I got a little nervous (perhaps unjustifiably) about the Hackintosh universe being a little slapdash and then about Apple maybe issuing some under the radar…
"I swear, I wish I didn't love macOS so much (or wasn't so heavily invested in it), or I'd happily ditch it for a really powerful thermally cooled desktop and use that as my machine." I was you at this time about two…
This is a problem of insufficient data. We don't have a denominator, so there's no way to tell if it's more widespread than we thought. In fact there's no good way to tell how widespread it is at all. We have…
I've been using Wire [1] for years on desktop in large part because of their E2E claims; I wanted something simple and secure that worked relatively fluidly for video calls. I've had mostly pleasant experiences with it,…
Hey, truly thanks for this. It's not Dark Sky, but it's not bad, and I never would've heard about it were it not for folks on HN. I'm getting good data for where I live, the UI is nice and clean. It's a start!
Just came here to say "fuck". I'm so let down. Can't have nice things, I guess.
Put aside for a second the fact that being rich enough from word processing software to surround yourself with experts and repeat what they tell you does not (necessarily) make you an expert. Apart from that, I agree…
If he's so prescient about pandemics, why didn't he spend the last 20 years, I don't know, making sure healthcare workers in his own darned city had enough masks and gloves to deal with one? Surely he could've saved a…
Excuse a bit of hyperbole, but what sort of medieval nightmare-world are we living in when the citizens of the world's most revered democracy are waiting with bated breath for the pronouncements of the wealthy on…
Calling for repeated random draws of a country's population and testing everyone in that draw is stirring shit up?
