I feel the same way, I've been meaning to do a similar project for France for a long time, a sort of accessibility index for sidewalks that would be added to a weighted sum to give cities an accessibility score. I feel that's wh

Could you elaborate? I'm not familiar with the terms you use and I don't understand the parallel you're drawing when I look them up.

In my experience subsidized ride services are not financially viable. There are just too many disabled people for it make financial sense, so what happens is the government gives the contract to companies that do their best to lower their o

You might know this already given your username, but for the sake of the thread I feel I should mention "Ha ha" is a common expression in french when discovering something, and not exclusive to this feature (which I felt wasn'

It made me wonder whether "punic" was the root of words like "punish" and "punitive". But there seems to be no connection. http://www.fantasy-writers.org/forum/question-about-word-pun...

Aren't you worried choosing your look based on the demographics of mTurk would make you attractive to a non-representative sample of the population?

I was interested in trying it out as I already use Hugo + S3 for hosting with my own scripts but the added value is just not worth the cost and the free tier is not viable at all. By that I mean other online services that offer a free tier

No, the answer is that there is a limited number of scientists and a limitless number of research directions. This doesn't have to be correlated with brilliance. In fact, it can be easier to research some of the less popular paths be

I'm impressed you can run all that especially multiple VMs on 8gb, I have to close Firefox when I need VMs. I'm on windows 7, on a Dell Inspiron with a RAM and disk upgrade, no special configuration or software. I didn't th

I think it's a bit of an unfair characterization. I don't use emac or CLI as my client, I enjoy a beautiful UI as much as the next guy but electron is a real bother to me. I switched from Sublime to VS Code and went from 20MB of R

I attended a talk by Stephane Mallat a few months back about the work his lab is doing on wavelet scattering transforms. It seems they're making great progress in developing deep neural networks based on them that don't need to

Could you give some details as to why it's better than other more commonly used tools (pip, venv, ...)? Looking at the home page it's not immediately obvious to me. For example, the lock file it creates seems to be the equivalent

It interferes in multiple ways. First, it's more spacious so people will almost always choose it before any of the non accessible stalls, and people will use it when they need to go number 2 because it's more comfortable. When I w

I relate to most of the things she talks about, except I think exclusively in English, to the point I'm losing my French even though I live in France. English is convenient and quick. And everything feels less severe, I feel like a com
