The link you posted starts by giving three definitions, only one of which corresponds with "not". Maybe you meant to post a different link?

The article is deeply biased in trying to make a point. Nothing in the article actually clears the Labour Party (as opposed to their supporters). An "independent inquiry" that they commissioned has all the weight of every other

I'm pondering this too, and I'm willing to be wrong on it, but I would have said that you can't be disappointed by a movie without having had some sort of raised expectation about it. If you thought it would be rubbish you w

I suspect that there going to be a divergence between "left-leaning" and "liberal-leaning" in Britain. The British Labour party isn't inherently liberal (as they have shown with their anti-semitism and resistance t

"dischuffed"? Surely "nonchuffed"? "Dischuffed" suggests that they had been previously chuffed with the Guardian.

Sorry, should have made this clearer. I mean private healthcare leads to more diagnoses. In socialised healthcare the doctors have no financial incentive. Hence the original comment saying that diagnoses are less common in Europe.

by Singletoned 7y ago
Private vs socialised healthcare could have a big effect on diagnoses. When patients can just keep going to doctors until they get the diagnosis they want, doctors that more readily make a diagnosis will make more money.

I have previously concluded the same about him having Aspergers. From what I've read of him, he sounds quite strongly Aspy.

Meditations on Violence by Rory Miller. It's written by someone who lives violence on an everyday basis, and his insights are amazing. Particularly for people who rarely experience violence, but when they do it will be catastrophic.

That's exactly what he's used, but with angle brackets around it. What do you think he should have done instead.
43.
by Singletoned 8y ago
But he could achieve exactly the same thing by using descriptive variable names without the angle brackets. Admittedly he can't use `list` as it's a built-in but `a_list` or `list_` would be much better than `<list>`.

I came here to say exactly the opposite. The angle brackets mean that every single example is a syntax error. If you are going to write a cheatsheet with samples of Python code, why not write it in valid Python? This is clearly aimed at be

You should definitely read The Divided Mind by Dr John Sarno. The book has a very high success rate at solving long term back injuries.

Sarno's Theory could actually be a plausible explanation for the placebo effect. If some percentage of people suffering a condition have psychosomatic symptoms, when you give them a pill and tell them it will cure them, their brain co

I fully agree. I still have my Kindle with hardware buttons and look after it very carefully because I'm praying I don't have to switch at somepoint.

Apart from it being a bunch of Markdown files, what tools do you use with it? I keep trying org-mode but keep getting annoyed that it isn't Markdown. I'd love to find a Markdown equivalent.

Indeed. I've had non-technical content writers feeling comfortable adding files directly to GitHub and writing Markdown in the them. Basically using it as a CMS. Pull Requests and Branching remained confusing issues for them though.

Yeah, it was. So it's like how the order in which we learn philosophical ideas roughly mirrors the order in which they were discovered?
