I grew up on a sheep farm. I disagree with this article. I found them to be almost pathologically fatalistic and idiotic. Perhaps there's something to be said about domestication having a negative cognitive effect, or inbreeding, or so

I wonder if the recent experiments with deep learning on spoken audio can be combined with text to speech to create more natural sounding output.

Thenounproject.com is really good. Also, Daniel Solis sells packs of really specific board game icons.

Yes, nationalism is an important consideration. I did not consider that in my opinion. I will now freely admit that there are probably other good reasons I have not considered. Thank you for the reference.

It is the intense educational requirements of the Chinese character system that led to the development of Hangul-am, the Korean character system. You still end up with a similar block structure, but it is phonetic and has about the same num

I disagree with that interpretation based on the text you have selected. It does not reference a consumer market (which would be a nightmare scenario if this popped up in health food stores), and explicitly uses the term "medical test&

That is likely the intent. It seems likely that you would have different doses for different diseases, probably with some overlap (akin to Gram-staining, for example).

Red Bull is attached to airplane races both legitimate and fanciful. They are not as out of place on that list as you first imagine.

Machi Koro - light and breezy Caylus - medium to heavy Both manage to accomplish what modern Monopoly grasps at in distinctly different ways. They are also fun and end before they've destroyed any relationships.

Yes, and I have experience working on very large development teams where it is clear diminishing returns. There's probably a critical pivot around 7 people (Dunbar's Number, right?) where you begin to have significant drag caused

I disagree. The amount of time it takes me to produce art at the level of polish required to suit the games I develop is far longer than it takes my artist friends to create better work. Same with music and just about everything else other

My experience is that sleep deprivation leads me into a manic episode, but any benefits are outweighed by the inevitable crash. My depression is generally treated effectively by a rigid sleep schedule and lots of sunlight.

The risk of skydiving into a shark's mouth are extremely low. Ironically, if you were assaulted by a skydiving shark, you would probably die of a heart attack.

For the depressive affect I consume St. John's Wort and L-Carnitine and I use a sun lamp. For the creative side, I ensure that I work at least 15 minutes a day on a creative project outside of work hours. At work, I strive to improve t

Electronic components are practically the opposite of open source software. To evaluate an IC, you need to painstakingly decap it and study it under a microscope as well as logic probe it to ensure its functionality. And that only applies t

In my case, I lost the weight by eliminating a lot of carbohydrates from my diet. The only way I would bother touching a piece of bread would be if it was unusually delicious.
