I think these are cases where it's going to depend on what is most natural for each individual, especially when used for mnemonic purposes. Whether the acoustic or articulatory similarities feel more salient is going to depend entirely

I found it pretty curious that the voiced dental fricative was used to represent 1 but the unvoiced dental fricative was used to represent 8, seems like the only voiced/unvoiced pair to be split in this way. In my idiolect, they both b

Apologies if I've touched on a sore topic. How can I help to frame the immune system in a less misleading way?

I do think the title could have been made more accurate by weakening it, but I'm curious linguistically why the title as is evokes hatred. Would you feel it similarly misleading if a headline said "individual crashes their car&quo

The brown M&M's were supposedly a canary that prompted a line-by-line check of the technical specifications of the production for errors, which would then be the grounds to cancel the show. Snopes has a good article[0] on the Van H

I should have included in my previous post that I'm not a mental health professional. I'm also just an interested individual looking to make the most of the hand I've been dealt, and I too have very large blindspots. I don&#x

I'm inclined to agree with you, that this sounds very much like a presentation of Dissociative Identity Disorder, with the reservation that I don't know the situation or the individuals beyond these simple reports. It sounds like

It reminds me of Byrne's Edition of Euclid's Elements, which you might also be interested in checking out. https://www.c82.net/euclid/

For what it's worth, that's just income directly from sponsored content. The bulk of livable streaming income (outside of huge endorsements) comes from monthly subscriptions, so conversion rate matters as much as total viewership.

Thank you for making your work available for free. I appreciate the historical context you have added.

I got about three paragraphs into an explanation of additive/subtractive color, rayleigh scattering, pigments and iridescence, before I realized this has to be satire.

Paper in this context is a form of cold storage, you could get very similar results encoding the information on magnetic tape or on a hard drive stored in a safe. Cold storage turns the information security problem into a physical security

As a non-citizen resident, I definitely understand the distinction, though I am also not a member of any constituency in the U.S. so it would be pretty strange to call me a constituent. I also see the point that it is in fact more accurate

Actually, to be pedantic, citizens of the United States are indeed citizens of the state in which they reside, according to the 14th Amendment: > All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereo

Now that you mention it, that's definitely where I first learned about it too. Great podcast. Thanks for the reminder.

When I saw this title, it was a 50-50 toss-up for me between Animal Crossing and some event like that which prompted the Onion Futures Act[0]. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onion_Futures_Act

It's my guess that early brain-machine interface is going to require a fair amount of training and conditioning to interpret information across the interface. I think attempting to locate, isolate, and stimulate specific nerves that ca

It took me a long time after taking that leap of faith into therapy to learn that the most valuable part of psychotherapy is not information or advice but it is the therapist-client relationship itself. You need to internalize their advice

I don't think the point is avoiding these metaphors, but instead about being aware of them. The next slide in that talk is "You're thinking of figurative metaphors", and goes on to distinguish cognitive metaphors which a

Great work! These examples are super clear. One thought: it would be great to highlight a given match on hover. I know that each match has its own undertie and it's explicitly mentioned early on but it might help really drive it home i

Just a fyi: I'm getting a 500 error when visiting that link. Sounds interesting, would love to take a look at what you're building.

Not ELI5 exactly, but the article does a pretty good job of explaining in the first paragraph: > The default mode network (DMN) is an internally directed system that correlates with consciousness of self, and the dorsal attention network

Fair enough-- for me a lot of the joy of the game is in using it as a collaborative story teller and filling in the gaps it gives me. Having underspecified graphics gives me more freedom with my mind's eye, but I can understand that no

I personally agree. A lot of those disagreeing with you find the ASCII graphics to be a barrier to initial entry, which is true, but it is a barrier that you can overcome quickly and feel quite comfortable with. On the other hand, having sp

It was an old design of the periodic table. Presumably the rectangular tabular form was used because that's how it was developed and to show the similarity to the tool he's trying to explain. I think it was a good example of his g

I agree with this in that I believe that many industries (esp. health care) are being harmed by hyper-financialization, which is reducing transparency for consumers and creating massive waste. What worries me is the part about judging the w
