what if `displayplacer list` doesn't show an option for my current resolution with "scaling:on"? does that mean my 16" MBP w 5500M doesn't support this resolution?

Agree. We got ours in Jan 2020 because we had a new baby and it was hard to make it to the gym regularly. I played college sports and work out regularly over the past 15 years since then. I'm pretty self-motivated to stay fit. I didn&#

Isn’t the price just the desirability factor (on average)? Would be interesting to select areas of desirability and find the cheapest areas that match those criteria.

Also, lots of other quality of life and expense factors to consider: schools, dinning/produce, jobs in your field. Ultimately though, doesn’t the market just work this out? The areas where the most people want to live are the most expe

Lots of people in the medical/scientific community expected this result. The best explanation I have heard is that the vaccine companies planned these sub-optimal trials with 2-3 weeks between shots, because it meant getting the vaccin

For what its worth, the A16Z boss talk podcast episode/clubhouse this week had everyone (incl Databricks CEO) basically agree with this model. Most people in the office 2-3 days/week. Some full remote. Seems like that is the way t

In the paper associated with 1 it says: The FilmArray RP test utilization rate (TUR) metric is defined as the non-normalized number of RP patient test results generated each week across the Trend sites (computed as a centered 3-week moving

2 was published in Feb 2020, so not sure how helpful that is... 1 is not normalized data. It does not account for testing frequency. These percentages are of tests using BioFire. My hospital, for example, does not use BioFire to test for SA

Agree the tax calculations are a little bit off. Also, only lets you take the individual standard deduction (12k vs 24k for married filing jointly)

Similarly, the ability to share with another account, so that my spouse can also poke around and create models based on our base case.

This is possible, but I work in medical research, and this pause is pretty standard practice. When there is a potential problem, you pause, gather more data, come up with a mitigation plan (if needed) and submit all this to the ethics autho

Also, if you phrase the question “should everyone follow the same rules?” in the right way, everyone is going to say “of course!”

Do all Western democracies guarantee Freedom of Speech like in the US? I seem to remember reading this is actually a US-centric view that isn’t universally shared. Eg nazi slogans in present day Germany. Do we actually need to guarantee un

This is the beauty of randomization and blinding. Because both the participants and the doctors (the ‘double’ in double blind) don’t know who got the vaccine or placebo, anything you tell them to do is told equally to both sides. You can’t

Is this true? My understanding was that in fine tuning, you’d only re train some of the layers. And even if you re train all the layers, the starting point for the layers is not random. If it really was all forgotten then fine tuning would

You do not have to be in a high risk group. I've seen people not in high risk groups die. Your odds may be lower, but no one is immune. (I guess except those who survived it or got the vaccine)

I'm firmly in the camp that exercise is extremely beneficial. Likely one of the most beneficial things one can do (with not smoking and eating a diet high in fruits/veggies low in processed carbs). We (society/physicians&#x2F

Wow what a disappointing result. Perhaps underpowered to detect what may only be a small change. Also perhaps some selection bias in that the participants that sign up for an Exercise Study may already be pretty fit. And we see some of that

This was a retrospective study. Meaning the 'general population' they drew from were people with vitamin D tests during the period (Jan-Mar 2020) already drawn for some reason.
