Go outside. From my perspective, you're failing to enjoy a successful life because of your fixation on other people's success. Come back and you may find your head clearer.
http://www.nickbostrom.com/fable/dragon.html This was an interesting read about humanity's perception of mortality.
Nature is full of interesting goodies. My favorite is the discovery taq polymerase from thermophile bacteria that lives on thermal vents at the bottom of the ocean.…
I believe the official term in grant funded kinds of places is "no cost extension" of the project.
Some companies are willing to that risk and gamble that no one finds out, especially if the legal action in question is cheaper than the fix. :)
At five figure checks, they can send it via carrier pigeon if they like :).
Increases the SNR of the internet so high, it's actually worth it. I'd rather spend more on memory and have a less annoying internet :). Consider the technical solution alternatives, and getting people to use them. Now…
That is why academia for hard sciences is still very much a cathedral / ivory tower system. It is nearly a polar opposite to tech, where things are judged solely on merit. I doubt you could argue that a first authorship…
I think this is also about Nature being listed side by side with free access journals, and knowing that if it says "Nature" you're going to have a bad time. They are trying to change their image a bit here, and rightly…
For those not in the know, Nature is THE journal to be in if you want to be successful in bioscience. It is peer reviewed, fairly exclusive, and they generally only publish game changer style science. If you are in…
Most searching for articles is done via PubMed. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed Nature gets seen side by side with free access journals there, and so now we get to see them for free (regardless of delivery…
That's pretty interesting! I've been told at Walmarts they they don't even match walmart.com as it is "different".
IRC with an HTTP portal hosted locally would be a bit more friendly to non-IRC expecting types.
Canada gets this so right with {p|m}aternity leave for either parent, which levels the playing field for both sexes. Disclaimer: I am an American who is a product of the military health care system, and thinks it is a…
Wow, no fun not ever. To author: thanks for the reference to Coda Hale's Metrics talk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czes-oa0yik
I thought the 1% figure as encompassing all science. As far as CS is concerned, I don't really know. As far as bioscience, leaps and bounds are made all the time. Electronic technology is a feedback loop that for every…
I think the article unfairly bashes rail transport by singling out coal. If you read Warren Buffett's writings, his investment in rail was mostly due to being able to move something 500 miles on one gallon of diesel…
