Yeah I agree the FTC article could be more clear here. I think they call out Western Union because those are tools that are commonly used by scammers. But let’s be clear: the risks are the same if you are wiring money through Western Union

Addressed to GP. This resonates with my experience. When a friend is having their first manic episode, it’s hard to get them to recognize that and get the help they need. But after the aftermath of a couple manic episodes, my friend wanted

My intuition would be that there are certain conditions under which Bayesian inference for the missing data and multiple imputation lead to the same results. What is the distinction? The scenario described in the paper could be represented

It turns out the dissertation is not quite published yet, but this paper [1] will be a part of it. Sam and I were in the same lab and his work has evolved to focus even more on AI-guided protein design. Perhaps the quote from the abstract t

I never understand people chasing daily commits to GitHub. You can push whatever git history you want to GitHub. I can rewrite all my commits so they are evenly distributed across however days I want to show up green on GitHub.

I find the writing style in CLRS to be quite readble. Sure the book is huge but so maybe pick and choose chapters but each chapter can be read "cover to cover". Perhaps some of the stack details you are looking for are left to exe
