   I use vanilla Emacs with 145 packages and my startup time is 0.9 sec on a 6 y/o thinkpad. With deferred evaluation, there is no need to use a daemon.

   Is this a problem? TVs become outdated with or without internet connection. I guess I don't understand you. TVs are so cheap now, if anything is actually expensive, you are better off just buying another (cheap!) TV.

   People overworry about smart features. Just don't tell it your wifi password and now you have a dumb TV.

   BTW, the author is using the Modus Operandi theme for Emacs. It's really easy on the eyes (high contrast) and comprehensive. Oh, and it's beautiful. Shout out to Prot who maintains it.

   This is just going to make racial differences in math achievement worse because wealthier parents are now more incentivized to put their children in private school.

   I think HN is averaging about one high quality Emacs post a week these days. Emacs renaissance?

   GNOME is only DE I can use on Linux where it feels like the window manager just disappears, and I can focus on the task at hand. Everything is integrated and just fits me like a glove. I love that.

   planetary motion is a property of the natural world. Deep learning algorithms are not. Deep learning is not science.

    How do you measure accuracy? Is there another way the man can communicate? edit: The researchers compared the BCI output to a prompt that T5 was supposed to restate. I was thinking that T5 was communicating without prompts in the experiment

    Better to just have two or more Emacs processes running. One for programming, one for email, one for Elfeed. If I had to check email in Emacs, I might do it this way, but like you I just use Tbird and Emacs.

    I've never used Vim, but I use Evil mode and vim bindings everywhere. I'd have a much poorer relationship with my computer without vim modes.

    After owning several thinkpads... I think the trackpoint is better than a trackpad, but trackpoint drift is so common on so many models that I hesitate to call it brilliant.

    I like MATE, but it (and most other DEs) doesn't have HiDPI support. So, back to Gnome.

    A very odd method where logistic regression would have sufficed. I would have done something like library(mgcv) gam(y ~ s(x), data, family = binomial) to do a wiggly logistic regression, and avoid the binning issue entirely. Y

    Thanks, you are right that a flat prior does does guarantee numerical correspondence. I probably should have said 'matching prior'.

    You are correct that the "easy interpretation" is not valid for confidence intervals. However, it is the correct interpretation for Bayesian credible intervals. Re-read my comment. I think I'm pretty clear that you need to us

    If you have a hard time understanding a confidence interval, just treat it as a Bayesian credible interval (from an analysis with a flat and irrelevant prior). Now you can use the easy interpretation… “95% chance the parameter is between a

    I've always found tiling WMs to be quite nice on small screens, but a chore on large screens. I use a 27 inch 4k screen currently and much prefer gnome or xfce. i3/dwm/xmonad was great on my x220 thinkpad.

    You can use a nomogram to very elegantly summarize a logistic regression model (really, any additive model) For example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6152514/ See also the rms R package.
