I feel like you're playing to the knee-jerk reaction crowd that will decide you've won the argument through buzzword bingo, the buzzword in this case being "chemicals". Saying a foodstuff has come into contact with a che

That's brilliant if so, great how such a simple technique could potentially have a solid, measurable, quality of life improvement.

As interesting as the article is, it's way too early to have feelings as strong as being "practically offended" towards literature advising such a diet. It's perhaps better to tell patients to "eat balanced and enjo

Needs more studies. Armchair analysts find it intuitive though, but we don't know for sure yet.

Well, to get picky about it, I believe the exception is that it's ok to use it while a non-closed alternative is in the works. I think the example Stallman uses in his talks is that of software controlling a life saving medical device.

I'm assuming you're already past the stage where you've verified the problem you're solving is worth solving with technology, otherwise you're wasting time. With that said, you need to divide responsibility. Either

Rumour has it that while the Saturn was superior on paper, it was really because rumours of the PSX caused SEGA to double up on processors, meaning more performance but harder to tool up for more parallel based development. Funnily enough w

Ha, would be funny if the internal setup were like that. I wouldn't be too quick to assume bad faith on the companies part though. Sometimes agile companies have these vanity metrics as a proxy to keep their development environments an

I don't think he/she meant that they used a flux pattern in addition to redux. Even though redux differs in many ways (self-admittedly) to canon Flux implementations, it's largely regarded to be in the flux family when folks

It's not so much software running on the CPU doing the work here. It's hardware support for decoding via the GPU that enables it.

I don't understand, elm is for your browser based application, which can't communicate with postgres anyway except through a web server sitting in the middle.

Put more succinctly that I did in my comment, where a lot of folks extrapolated my comments on the tone of the article to a full blown commentary on the free market.

My thoughts weren't really centred around arguing that to be honest. It was more to do with the author's tone, which took a rather tone-deaf attitude as to why certain folks were disappointed with the outcome. The outcome of the a

No I wouldn't. But volunteer work is usually commissioned without a price incentive in mind rather than an auction style format.

Nope. Made the assumption that because the price was going down rapidly that there were perhaps a few one-man/woman shops that wanted to do work for a price which was more reasonable than $1. Edit: Also you took a massive leap of extra

There are many tools and tech for doing this ranging from not powerful but simple, to the opposite. Below are just a few of these options. If by dataset you mean CSV, you can always do a basic cohort analysis via spreadsheet software like E

You would need to be more specific. There are services that do event collection and aggregation and then allow you to do a cohort analysis on a web or mobile app. (Like mixpanel) Or.. you could be working with an already existing dataset in
