What is the best research article on UI that you'd recommend to someone new to the field?

It would be great if more people would develop at least basic cooking skills. You'd be surprised how many people wouldn't even know what to do with a bag of rice if they were given one.

Conspiracy theories aside, Worebey's Science paper is not unanimously well received by the scientific community, and the data analysis was shown to be partly flawed. Here's a discussion on inference pointing to references and sour

That's an incredible effect size. Mechanisms hypothesized to be at play: "These mechanisms—and those underlying the effects of adulthood vaccinations on all-cause dementia risk in general—can be grouped into at least three broad,

Seems like vaccines reduce the effect, according to this study: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-393X/10/5/652

this should be written on the top of mastodon.social. Also, it's a shame they don't own mastodon.com . Reminded me of http://paulgraham.com/name.html

They come after the incumbent and feel like a copycat. They also solve problems most people don't know they have, and thus are unattractive (at large scale).

Is there any intuition to be learned from the way Stockfish plays? Are there new openings or strategies that it plays that haven't been sufficiently explored by humans?

It's 2022 and it's close to impossible for you and me to own a computer that we control. Even the thought of owning a computer we control is now seen as "extreme". If we did go through hops to have a machine that we cont

Stallman has a vision that you and I should be typing our comments and playing our games from machines that are under our control, i.e., whereby we can inspect and modify all of the code that is running on them. That is not the case, and al

This. Being able to walk and discover new work or see a poster that draws your attention is so much more engaging than scrolling through slidedeck titles on a screen.

Are scientific posters still a thing in all conferences you guys attend? I see many communities transitioning to "digital posters", by which they mean PPT slide decks... I sure miss traditional posters, but curious what the future

Active is a bad word to describe what I meant. I don't mean to say that a depressed mind is not thinking, just that it may not be able to get itself out of the place it is in without "active" effort (as in therapy - self-ther

I have a pet hypothesis that "curing" depression is an active endeavor, instead of a passive one. Just like being healthy in general requires at least a moderate regard to nutrition and exercising. No amount of medicine can replac

Exactly. Our tooling doesn't even allow us to make clear inferences about neuronal activity yet - all we can image with fMRI as of today is heamodynamics. The work proposes that because responses to difference visual stimuli show the s

Read about the concept of Leitmotif [1], that some claim was introduced by Wagner but seems to have already been present in the early 17th century. Leitmotif represents the idea that you can imply dramatic progression through music. The ide

Actually gives a lot of context for someone not familiar with the topic/data. I learned more from the plots than from the prose.

Same principle, different example. We never read "fact X", we read "fact X from source Y". What if source Y is biased in that its using all facts X to push an anti-bias agenda?

The text is not asking anyone to care about all humans equally. It is pointing out to a bias in reporting: one can never read "fact X". One can only read "fact X from source Y". Depending on one's alignment with sou

Abstracting away the specifics of the case (religion, sexual orientation), the true debate at hand is whether a human being should have the right to get an exemption from a law based on beliefs (perhaps provided that these beliefs are stron

No one will get funded with that mentality in such a high-risk high-reward area like fusion. But indeed after so many headlines I agree with you that no one gets excited about these news anymore.

The study is a meta-study over 250.000 published scientific articles. Hard to believe that general lifestyle habits would alone explain these results, given that individual peer-reviewed studies are expected to have at least partially accou

Smokers spend less time in closed environments. They are not always welcome in super-spreader indoor environments, and they spend less time with non-smokers than non-smokers do (most non-smokers do mind the smell of tobacco). Also, it'
