If you don't find any official degree online you can always stick to a bootcamp course that is similar to Harvard Math 55. It has had several forms. The most interesting ones being either Halmos + Rudin (plus many aids such as Gelbaum

Sure. This recent Nature Reviews Genetics paper should describe the basic associations between DNA methylation and glucose levels, as well as point you towards more specific literature: http://173.239.45.5/~joshmitt/dat

I'm not a big Apple fan. I've bought some of their laptops after the transition to Intel, but slowly switched away when macOS became less of a priority. That said, I think Apple is sitting on top of another blockbuster, similar to

If you are willing to take total control of your mobile environment, Android can give you very good privacy. Arguably better than Apple. Simply buy a Pixel (or any other device that supports AOSP). Build your own AOSP image (which is quite

Why don't you try a good MSc program, perhaps in Europe where you can find great places with free tuition?

Do you have a recommended setup to tackle fingerprinting? I'm using a VPN + ublock origin + https everywhere + temporary containers + don't track me google + chameleon + canvas blocker + custom user.js (that disables e.g. webgl).

I love working remotely from a home office in some sunny spots of the Mediterranean. If you choose well, you can find cheap places with great weather all year round, quality food and very good services (including healthcare). For me nothing

To Org and Magit, I would also add Notmuch as the third killer app for Emacs. A super mail user agent. Its search engine extraordinarily quick and powerful. Besides, the whole architecture Notmuch has is incredibly elegant.

I like to rsync into a BTRFS volume, and then take a snapshot. It's simple, fine-grained (you can use .rsyncignore files like .gitignore files) and versioned.

I've heard from my doctor and from other patients about cases where some steroids helped or even resolved tinnitus completely. I'm currently investigating this option. In my case, years before my tinnitus onset, I started having a

I suffer from pretty strong tinnitus. I have also had episodes of extreme eye dryness. Furthermore, I got floaters whose onset matches my tinnitus onset. Additionally I have very mild sporadic joint pain. I'm HLA-B27+. Altogether, this

People have said it here already, but I will repeat it again. Systems (actually habits!), not goals, are the solution. You need to derive pleasure from sticking to a habit and making continuous improvements. Arbitrary and concrete goals mig

I have helped people upgrade 16.04, and we have encountered some bugs. I used to run Ubuntu, but I see less and less reasons to do so these days. It's too complex and brittle. I can't understand it, and many of its components eith

It's a simple and extremely powerful language. Very few pieces of software combine simplicity and power. I'm very excited. It'd be great if Julia devs could help deploying Julia Pkgs on Nix, now that Julia is getting ready fo
