Nature's 'Scientific Reports' journal does indeed have a different editorial priority than other journals. The peer reviewers are instructed to evaluate scientific validity, not their own idea of importance. This is seen as a

The 'Netatmo' home weather stations record CO2 level. Mine shares over wifi. I get around 400ppm with windows open for a while, or 1200ppm with windows closed. I don't know what the calibration mechanism is, nor the specifici

Do you really think Google search trends are indicitive of "recent trends" on political leanings on regulation? If so, you might be interested to see that there is appears to actually be a relative swing toward regulation: https:

You can't sum the marginal rate to get the 'effective rate'. The effective rate of income tax in the UK is closer 37%, not 60%, at an income of £121k. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Percentage_IT_and_

Ok cool. But how is it that you are managing to connect via SSH? When connected over wifi, it seems that only port 53 is open on the Gear S3, and it doesn't accept SSH. And I don't know the user name nor password. And I don't

Interesting. I had assumed Tizen was a greatly reduced Linux-inspired OS. Do you have a source for the ability to SSH? Might it not be easier to have an Android app that grabs data from the watch using their API? https://stackove

You are clearly not representative of the target market. If preference were tested, I'm sure the vast majority of readers prefer more recent sites to that old style. A dominant news site has an obligation to try to look good to it&#x27

What do you mean impossible on mobile? I've been listening to this on a Nexus 5 for 30 mins. It played straight away on Chrome. Continues playing in background tab right now.

Why would you expect there to be medical evidence that speaks to being happier after giving up reading news? I don't think you are entitled to expect that. Medical studies don't tend to focus on the happiness of healthy people. Ev

Annoying meta-pedant note: You presumably mean that witch hunts mainly occurred in puritanical areas, at a time in which the Renaissance was occurring elsewhere in the world.

I doubt her anger is completely feigned. Even if it were, the job of a politician in a democracy is to represent the interests of their people. Anger here is better than not talking about it.

Looks interesting. I don't see a prominent link to a full pdf version of the draft of the website. Any reason why not?

Ha - I agree that that procedure seems preposterous. I have seen it listed in several forums, and only considered it after several others had reported success. I figured it didn't cost much to empirically give it a go. I present weak eviden

Perhaps not exactly what you are looking for, but Prof David Mackay (also of Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms) has a cogent quantitative analysis of energy generation, given climate concerns. I think it's a good read.

I'm glad that works for you. I imagine melatonin works better with minimal exposure to blue light after taking it. This might be good for those who have it harder time with sleep schedules than you do.

Plus melatonin and modafinil. Haven't pilots have used this stuff for years? Presumably going to Mars is particularly bad, but actually going to freaking Mars probably helps a little with the depression.

Is that tongue-in-cheek? Of course they can boil a kettle. It does take ages, though. Conventional kettles seemed to take perhaps twice as long to boil in CA than in UK. Boiling water at 230V,13A in the UK is going to be much faster than 12
