I agree with you that it would be interesting to see a Taleb-Peterson conversation. Perhaps you might enjoy this podcast with Gad Saad and Taleb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezhjumayRsg

p-values are commonly misinterpreted as the probability of a type-I error, i.e. that the null hypothesis is true but is being rejected. However, the p-value is actually a random variable. A nice paper covering this can be found in [1]. p-ha

> Bell's explanation of his theorem in a 1985 BBC Radio interview includes an appeal to the debate between free-will and determinism when interpreting his results. That sounds very interesting. Is the radio interview (or a transcrip

Thank you very much for this book! As a beginning game developer this was just what I was looking for. After learning how to do rendering, physics, AI and so on I was missing how to put it all together in a proper way. This is a great resou

Thank you all for the answers. Yes I suspect that I was a bit quick to jump on the appeal of the faster microcontroller on the Due while I wont really need it at all, especially in the beginning.

I am new to Arduino but very interested in starting. So far I have read that the Uno R3 is the best for beginners but now that the new Due is out will this be preferable for a beginner? From what I've read, the Due is faster and able to han

The gravitational acceleration is equal to G * M/r^2 where G is the gravitational constant (G = 6.67 * 10^(-11) N * m^2/kg^2) M is the mass of Earth (M = 5.97 * 10^24 kg) and r is the radius of the Earth (average radius = 6.37 * 10^6 m). A

Could you elaborate a bit on your point 1/3? How come the little interest in this subject? Even though it contains no relativistic effects it would seem to have some importance in filling out the complete 'cube' of theories?

Humorous post. I can't say that I am surprised by Paris dissected. All those small streets and alleys creates a lot of small segments and those small segments, when looked from above, will seem monotonous and all in the same shape. It seems
