I'm trying to figure out why it's inherently sexist. The woman in the photo posed, doesn't object to its use, gave a presentation about herself at an imaging conference, and had a career helping handicapped people work on com

That's an interesting thought that every time we introduce novel classification schemes to resolve humans from computers we feed a large training set for them. I never understood how that works, though. If I get a captcha street addres

I just did a similar thing that the linked tutorial uses for controlling lights. I use an arduino+RF emitter to control store bought RF controlled mechanical relays (3 for $20) and an rpi to host a server (used as ios mobile bookmark) that

Not sure how the doomsday works, but there's a quick way to calculate the day of week just memorizing single digit codes for months. Might be easier to grok from a small script. This is for current century (2000s) in coffeescript: calc

They recognize that it's more for prototyping and wouldn't be used at a production level: "We use industry-standard components — chosen to be powerful, inexpensive, and widely available — that can be designed directly onto yo

True, they meant OCPD tendencies which is easy to confuse with OCD given the overlapping terminology. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt.

Definitely true that labs/imaging without good pretest probability or indications are frowned upon. The check everything mentality, at least to me, seems to reflect liability concerns for serious missed diagnoses as opposed to profit s

I can understand that concern, but I think people might be reacting out of recognition that this is more an advertising stunt than an informed strategy at addressing child abuse. Either way these tactics speak to a failing system in not ap

Yea, it's simple once you figure out it's only using the y axis, but a bit dissonant that it's visually encoded on a circle/knob. That said, really awesome demo!

Yea, but they reduce to saying that someone was present and agreed to the contract. I've ordered things online, don't receive them, and the courier tells me it was delivered and signed for. I don't know who agreed. Nobody is going to inve
