Just out of curiosity - has anyone tried logging and analyzing Facebook traffic from their phone to see what kind of voice traffic it picks up?

Controversial and tangential, I know. Consider this: Any organization is a system of people in roles, let's call them members. The members are expected to make decisions in accordance with their responsibilities. All decisions rest on

What is easy to understand, but hard to illustrate is cyclic patterns of impulse - response. Without the impulse, no response. However, it is the response that drives the nature of the dynamics. I've recently paid attention to this phe

Sorry to answer to my own post. I joined Facebook last week. After eleven years of refusing to play Facebook's game. Here's the information I gathered from 20 minutes on Facebook - a powerful platform indeed. The author (Sarah Fri

The article quotes "people familiar with the matter". For all we know, this could be a controlled leak, and the "people familiar with the matter" could be CXOs and Facebook's core management team. :) Funny to see th

Submitter here. It seems some types of surveys in psychology may be more affected by the words chosen than previously accounted for.

Based on my own analyses, I can't see how Bitcoin will survive. Other "bitcoins" (cryptocurrencies) will surely arise to fill the gap. Time to call it for me: The fundamental value of Bitcoin is naught point nothing. USD 0.00

Strictly speaking, one may end up with a separate set projections for e.g. dividends. These may in a standardized way present ranges for each KPI with confidence intervals associated. I'd rather invest if that type of data were includ

I forgot to answer your question: "I want to know if any orgs actually use probabilistic decision making in their day to day operations." The short answer is "yes!" The long answer is, well, rather lengthy. Check out the

That is an excellent point! That is the very reason I believe the current system should be augmented with a new first class financial statement, rather than replaced. This will give investors better information, and managers will gain bette

Thinking is hard. That's why we must strive to avoid it at all costs. :) Probabilistic thinking is useful to wrap one's head around. Having worked with decision support for a decade, I've come to realize that probabilistic th

A single blow of a hammer to the head may cause a cracked skull and/or massive hemorrhaging. It could be instantly lethal, or cause death even after medical attention is given. Even with survival, there's a distinct risk of later

It's not a strange assumption to make, given how the prefix system works for true SI units. The litre/liter is defined as a decimeter cubed, or 0,1 m^3. It is a metric unit, but not SI. Still, it is allowed within the SI system...

Similar idiocy does happen to European tourists/visitors. Google "John Kristoffer Larsgard" for an AG's narrative that makes no sense, yet made it all the way to court and a conviction. (Astroturfing on both sides - look

With all due respect: No molecule is a mathematical formula. Mathematical formulas - on the other hand - are. Patents on software are a patent on describing how to use a machine. Almost every single component part of the machine has surely

The wear is per axle, not per wheel. It looks like the conclusion was read exactly right. A car with 2000lbs per axle will put sixteen times more wear on the road than one with 1000lbs.

Before Nazi Germany it was just Germany. Unless one is racist against Germans, one must in the interest of humanity seek to understand exactly how that transition happened.

In my observation, the rule that people get promoted to their highest level of incompetence holds true way too often. I.e. the incompetent new guy just has to fake it long enough that he gets promoted. Now his incompetence has leverage. He

Agreed. It is quite amazing what modern ANSI SQL has built into it. If one picks the right storage engine, an appropriate schema design and is rigorous about data quality, the flexibility and performance is incredible.

Patenting file formats make no sense to me. They are serializations of data, and although it can be convoluted how best to store a given representation of data the component parts must fall within mathematics.
