For most recipes, totally. I think many pressure cooker recipes don't involve other pans / the stove, which is convenient.

Thanks for the recommendation! I think I was looking at that exact grinder, but was deterred by a review that said it obliterated everything to too fine a grind for French press. I'll definitely have to pick one up.

Instant pot pressure cooker. Want to use it as a crock pot? sure. Want to saute things inside it first? sure. Frozen meat or dried beans? Why not! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FLYWNYQ?psc=1

What brewing method do you use the grinder for? I've been using a blade grinder for French press, and the grind is so uneven that part of me feels like it probably doesn't matter, but the other part feels like a barbarian.

Yikes! I use 15mg and will go months without using it. To me, studying is fine, it's just periodically doing menial tasks that require moderate amounts of attention. Sorry to hear about the rough experience, I could definitely see myse

I used to try stacking the deck in the way this article mentions, until I tried Adderall and realized that it made this kind of task juggling totally unnecessary. It was really bizarre to experience. However, to be honest, I don't need

Agreed, especially RE shenanigans. I'm remote most of the time, but in the office this week, and small things like telling stories at lunch make a difference.

Most neuroscientists that I know love GEB, and many came into the field in part because of it. maybe mentioning GEB is a high risk / high reward situation?!

Statistical modeling often involves two parts, model selection and model inference. As it turns out, many models have a causal interpretation. For example, a simple linear model could be interpreted as x causes y using the equation y = b*x

> With a small number of categories a full summary of the data easily fits into text. That's fair. In my experience, summary measures are often calculated at many levels of an analysis, not just the final reporting.

Great points. Discrete data with few categories are a good case where the median might not cut it. As a contrived example.. data: 0 0 0 1 1 mean: 2 / 5 median: 0

I think it strongly depends on how spaced repetition is being done. Spaced repetition of content isn't useful (simply viewing), but spaced testing is [1]. Also, a test might be just testing syntax (could only know answer via docs), or

That's really cool. Your comment reminded me a bit of how kids can go from disinterest to total fixation if something involves minecraft. (and I mean that in the best way possible).

It really seems to boil down to how the software is used. I'm not sure how effective simply presenting the steps is, but some of the most well validated intelligent tutoring systems are built around simple algebra problems like these.

Interesting article! Do you think there could be a risk of misattributing the cause of the emotion/intuition? After all, people classically misattribute things like arousal, and various aspects of memory. I guess I'm trying to sep

There is a roadmap: http://www.fabfile.org/roadmap.html One of the goals in the roadmap is to move part of Fabric's functionality into another library (Invoke), which does have recent activity and supports Python 3.

Same. I know there can be nice, composable OO approaches, but every time I bump into a super crazy stacktrace, or need one of those police-detective-style boards with yarn to connect everything, I start to wonder.

Agreed. That made me think of how statisticians 70 years ago were often good at doing all kinds of tests by hand. Once the doing things by hand part was abstracted away by modern computing they just focused on other parts of statistics.

This looks fairly similar to the psychology course, "Everything is Fucked" [1]. EiF has a stellar syllabus, while this one seems a bit lighter (maybe it's for fewer credits). Seems like a pretty useful course, in any event. I
