Comparing the curves y = 0 ^ x and y = x ^ 0 around zero highlighted the problem to me, but I don't have the maths to understand more than that.

We have a Wii-U. It's actually a very nice machine - if anyone wants a another way of playing Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon I'd highly recommend it. It also has the virtual console, which plays lots of NES/S

Also web.whatsapp.com, mighty text and the allo equivalent - none seem to work on firefox.

Have you tried Nvim-R? I love it. You can send a line to the R console using <space>. I've assigned loads of keyboard shortcuts beginning with your local leader that will do things like str(), levels(), head(), tail(), sum() on

Does the casio run python? I like the idea of having a portable machine I can write quick programs in, but some of these calculator languages are horrible. I'd rather write it in something a bit more mainstream like python or R. The

Yes, and after all, it's not as if learning R will prevent you trying out some models in Excel. In a life-time career, a 40-60 hour commitment for a new string to your bow that is as powerful as R is not a big investment.

> Randomized controlled studies have little to no scientific value Really? How would you convince me that, say, Nivolumab is a better treatment for cancer than the current standard of care? I doubt you have something better than a rand

One thing that really surprised me about Go — a supposedly simple language — is that you can even do multiple inheritance. And it’s pretty bad. Someone on the golang-nuts mailing list discovered, that Go doesn’t handle inheritance

That's an incredible demonstration of the power of KDE. I'm impressed.

I wonder how the computing landscape would look like if Amiga and Workbench had been able to continue their innovation and success. Probably still MS dominated.

Have you tried termux?

I think that is something we'll have to look out for, because you're absolutely right that a phone plus bluetooth keyboard doesn't mean a good computing paradigm. They've said that they've brought in a lot of keyboa

> Psychiatry isn't a science This is a common misconception. In fact psychiatry were pioneers of the gold standard clinical evidence - the randomised controlled trial. I suppose if you were being ungenerous you could say that they

Decimal precision isn't so important in modelling. More important in, say, accurate accounting of bitcoins.

I think this whole thread is too strongly biased to assuming that millions of analysts know what the ideal skills and tools for their job are, rather than they started with Excel and they continued with Excel. The other thing is that people

Yes, it doesn't use binary-encoded decimal. I guess the precision is good enough...

I had a Psion 3a, followed by a Revo and then a 5MX. What was great about them was the ability to quickly flip them open and take notes, or run a command-line program in it's OPL language, pretty much instantaneously. In the 90s this t

I think that's a great price for a custom product which will not sell in volume. Look at the Pandora and Pyra for comparison.

The article says that Ubuntu 17.10 is exciting again. I don't want exciting. Particularly when they drop nice features like the HUD and the integrated global menu and title bar. And that's coming from a MATE user who never got on

Have a look at what they've done with ubuntu-mate in 17.10. They've got a working global menu, unity-style dock and the HUD.

Thanks so much for this. They sound like some improvements, especially the timed/clock feature. Useful for not wanting to whitelist a website you need to view. I never find temporarily allow all too work that great - sometimes requi

There's a lot of chat on this thread about what quantity constitutes alcoholism. Certainly there is a recommended level above which it is likely to cause lasting harm, but another aspect is the psychological addiction, which can be sc

How did you find whether the update services were running or not? I was having trouble with a failing update, but I couldn't find any evidence of it running.
