Maybe it's because I find this research area intriguing, but I did not think that this summary adequately captured the efforts of the original paper [0]. I think it was unfortunate that this piece did not begin by conveying that the or

Interesting, I've noticed this is also common in Toyota's US manufacturing facilities.

I don't have any data on hand to back this up, but I don't think younger people are necessarily averse to monitoring their own health. I think personal health monitoring devices fit well with the devices the younger generation alr

I've been using my Fitbit Charge HR as my primary alarm for almost 2 years now and it works great. I also use it to set alarms as reminders if I have an important meeting or event.

Incorporating plant DNA is certainly an interesting approach to the problem. The chip or PCB fingerprinting methods make me slightly concerned about potential privacy implications. Would the fingerprint be shared among a batch of chips&#x2F

I wanted to do something similar for snakes once, but after some thought it didn't seem like the safest idea.

Is there an easy way to do this on iOS? I use Little Snitch on my laptop, but haven't ever found an equivalent for mobile devices.

I find it odd that the article seems to downplay the potential benefits machine learning provides by emphasizing a lack of explanatory power from classification algorithms. At the very least it would seem that a machine-based classifier pro

In some of my research the participants are young children or are disclosing sensitive social information during the study, so we typically cannot share the data in fine-grained detail. It can be difficult to ensure confidentiality will be

Maybe this is just relative to my area of work, but I often feel that the sociologists I work/am friends with are in a dangerous balancing act of attempting to influence policy while also conducting unbiased research inquiries. While t

I recently was selected for a more thorough screening at the DFW airport, which included walking through the metal detector twice, having a body scan, the new "universal pat-down" [0], and individual swabbing and x-ray of every it

It seems like an intersting next step after producing these output labels might be to use something like ConceptNet [0] to evaluate the relationship between the labels and somehow incorporate this as feedback. [0] http://concept

It is definitely intriguing to see the growing incorporation of "third wave" therapy techniques across many of the most popular current approaches. I am hopeful that as we become better at measuring and understanding therapeutic c

Wow very interesting indeed, same behavior for me. Definitely makes me curious about the implementation details of Github's search feature.

I don't think we ever did formal testing on this (external battery packs were plentiful), but I do recall some of the early versions of the MPEG-1 decoder causing tablets to heat up.

Yes. The link below is an early summary of the project [1], but I'll summarize here too: We were examining how the different individuals involved in a disaster response could best communicate their needs to the pilot of the UAV without

The "Why Use JSMPEG" section hits the nail on the head with respect to the needs of some projects I have worked on. Particularly, I once needed to stream video from a UAV to multiple tablets and phones on a local network to allow

Wow, very intriguing to read. I appreciate honest event descriptions like this. This has reminded me how important it is to perform regular rehearsals of data recovery scenarios. I'd much rather find these failures in a practice run. T

I agree. I work in a robotics lab with 30-40 members and choosing our basic support software can be really challenging. We avoid proprietary apps until we have no other choice. We also prefer to have software we can self-host, review the co

I'd be more concerned about the the level of access the monitoring software has to my computer and any services with vulnerabilities it might leave behind. I think I'd only consider doing this if I used a computer I could wipe com

From the behind the scenes video [0] it looks like safety was taken into consideration (though the final edited product doesn't make this obvious). [0] http://okgo.net/2016/11/23/the-one-moment-bts/

What strikes me as interesting in this example is that it seems to assume the classifier is run once and that its decisions have no effect on future decisions. I would imagine that if we are separating people into groups based on demographi

Thanks for sharing that article. We just covered moderation approaches in one of my clinical psych courses and they really can be very effective. One interesting finding is that the sense of self-efficacy gained through moderation makes d

Is a realtime version available? I notice at 0:24 in the short version (0:41 in longer version [0]) it seems to stop early for a stop sign and then resumes driving to the stop sign. It looks like the vehicle in the oncoming lane may have ca

As a CS researcher who often assists researchers in sociology with Twitter studies I struggle with how accurate or meaningful the results are when the study depends on inferring too much about specific users. I have never conducted a study

As a CS researcher I probably wouldn't have raised my hand, thinking it was some sort of a trick or that the speaker was making a point about how simple concepts are sometimes conveyed in confusing ways. I appreciate mathematics, but b

Initially it couldn't get any of mine, but then I realized that Privacy Badger was blocking something important, causing it to silently fail. After allowing it through it got most of them.

I sometimes run into an interesting variation of this kind of problem. I often work with a Microsoft Surface tablet laying in front of my MacBook Pro, with my arms stretched over the tablet to type at times. If the Surface is plugged in (no

I am surprised by the sentiment of many of the comments here. Perhaps it is from spending so many years in the academic world, but I have repeatedly witnessed how "conforming" or "following protocol" with hopes of tenure
