A significant amount of grad student time is sunk into being human PID loops and sensor fusion models for their experiments. Repetition makes humans dumber and/or depressed. The search space is limited to human scales and predictive mo

I think cross-references are akin to dictionary words. They describe in their own right a novel and potentially useful relationship. In order to define and communicate these relationships well there ought to be a system of organization that

It’s impressive to see T. Gondii evolve to influence their hosts to write positive PR. Joking aside, it makes sense to me that higher risk behavior on the host’s part would increase a parasite’s spread, since some of the energy that drives

I think i know the buffer you are talking about and there are at least two insights I’ve learned from it. 1) it can contain any sound, and it de-coheres when you attempt to make meaning out of the sound. 2) you can train yourself to expand

Computer and phone interfaces tend to be very colorful. Sometimes a UI designer doesn’t know how to fit extra dimensions of information on screen, they encode that information in color, but it doesn’t always work. Colors are picked up by br

Well, there is a giveaway, but one would need to know it and have good points in perception. I generally use the assumption that I’m being recorded (with people / groups I don’t know well) as a speech filter / clarity motivator.

Changing a definition of a word is a big ask. As wbazant wrote, hacking has originally started as describing computer crime. The scales for what was considered computer crime has shifted quite a bit in addition to the term itself expanding.
