Hey this really resonates. I’ve been looking for a way to describe the observation that talent is multi-dimensional without using that word, or just saying something generic like “people are good at different things.” Maybe you should write

How does this pass as science?? There is no actual data on people. They simulated from a multivariate normal and then reported the frequency of observations where all three dimensions were one or more standard deviations above the mean. Thi

I think there is hidden gold in the linked research paper. In the second to last paragraph, it says if you are willing to discard the trivial partition (each point on its own) from Richness, then you *can* have Scale-Invariance and Refineme

> Rational numbers are numbers that we can have in our hand while irrational numbers are ones which we can never have. It is important to have a setup that respects that difference. Do you mean physically? Basic shapes like circles, squa

I think it just means taking the input as an integer and then separating out the “ones place”and “tens place” using integer division and modulo operator. E.g., ones = number % 10 tens = number // 10 do_print = (ones + te

Even subject level fixed effects would have made this a much better study. Doesn’t need to go all the way to IV to be a thoughtful design.

This study would be a lot more credible if they asked about cell phone use on follow up and then differenced everyone against their prior reporting, to determine if *changes* in cell phone use (and other control factors that might change ov

OP here. I've seen much recent discussion on HN about robocalls not being resolved by the new STIR/SHAKEN protocol arising from the TRACED Act. I found this on https://regulations.gov and thought it would be of interes

Sure, but my old Google cloud apps on python 2.7 will one day get rug-pulled and forced to upgrade. It can only stay working forever if the platform doesn't change underneath it.

Nextdoor also used to do it well, but it has become like Facebook with flame wars and political craziness.

Got a reference for this? My understanding is Nash equilibrium exists in any game with finite states, regardless of perfect or imperfect information. The bit about announcing your strategy holds by definition - the equilibrium is defined su

I think it's because the publisher retains copyright. There is a limit on how "done" the manuscript can be and still be shared for free online. Some universities have started to fight back against this by limiting the scope o

Sweet. Didn't know this existed. Is your site theme custom? From a quick check of https://jsonresume.org/ it looks like they only have document themes, not website themes.

I started reading through your site a bit. Great content. Wanted to let you know that the "Here is the Doxygen-generated documentation for the BADGER layer" link is broken on this page: https://littlegreenviper.com&#x2F

I think you are right about high cost vs low cost plans. The low cost plans routinely get the worst rates... Kind of the opposite of price discrimination if those buyers are poor. This recent WSJ article might be of interest: https:/&

...and n=10, and they measured a ton of covariates and reported only the 'significant' ones. Not much actual information here.
