What is the difference between the two terms? I would venture that most people don't know. I know that I don't know.

your statements don't conflict, it's just an interpretation of the term "very big." Lots of people are buying the softtops, but those people might not be the people still investing in high-end hardtops (if that's th

But, of course: the relative volume of events is somewhat tapered by space-like interactions. Me not paying rent this weekend would mean a lot more to my present state in life - insofar as I am able to perceive it - than a hypothetical supe

Saying that the brain is organized like the web is functionally misleading but morphologically correct. Both show strong "small-world" network topologies (short mean path-length, high clustering coefficients) but do not function i

Tor as an OS-level feature may not spark the best reaction. It's been given a bad name ("deep web," silk road, etc) in mass media and many people don't understand it enough to think of it as anything other than bad. I th

There is potential for uber infrastructure to self-regulate - continuously giving bad ratings to bad drivers will see them reprimanded in some fashion (I imagine). I've had (mostly) good experiences here in Boston/Cambridge; any b

This is a good point - how do copyrights protect intellectual property from open source alternatives? I think that this is a really good thing to open-source, but the law can be tricky to navigate. Almost like you need a degree in it...

I think that the outright banning of p-values is not the right way to go. The researchers that misuse them and the reviewers that apparently don't understand them are a much bigger problem than the p-value metric itself. What's ne

I've been trying to piece this field apart for a while now, so here's my take on this: Each manifold is just a collection of points that can be locally mapped to some coordinate system. Furthermore, distances between points can be

Pie charts aren't typically heaps useful when presenting experimental results, but I get your point. Stats in the biosciences are in a ~ish state atm. I agree with the article - just slapping down a bar plot of means and scribbling a p
