Scientific computing, specially when you'd like to do visualizations of data that is big/can't leave the server. It's also possible in Jupyter notebooks using port forwarding, but I don't see it for development invo

I used to feel the same way, until I read Sarno’s book. The way he explained what psychosomatic means completely changed my perspective over it. I think the main problem with many doctors is the fact that the patient tends to feel blamed wh

Sarno’s book concludes with the idea that negative emotions cannot be changed, and I disagree. I _think_ this is due to the psychoanalysis framework he employs for his analysis. For me, it didn’t help either, but guided me to search how I c

I completely agree with you. However, I tried containers in Firefox and miss them so much when using Safari.

Some time ago I was trying to include more than one bibliography in a document. After a day or so trying to make it work with the MacTex installation, I checked if it would work with ShareLatex. Worked at the first try, changing nothing in

I think that many MDs see physical issues as only physical, but in my experience an injury from physical trauma may have an impact on the mind as well. I suffered chronic headaches for years after I broke my maxilla. All exams and imaging w

This can be done too in MacOS by configuring iTerm2 to open a new pane in the same directory and using tmux integration. Cool part is you don't have to learn the tmux commands, but you can use the iTerm2 commands to split panes, among

A book that has been incredibly helpful for me and family members is Code to Joy, by George Pratt and Peter Lambrou. They also have good tools in Instant Emotional Healing (older book), but it's more technical and not as beautifully wr

Coming from South America, I agree. I've had this exact conversation with friends from my home country, it definitely called our attention when each one of us moved to LA.

The continental side of Chile, from Chiloé to the south, feels like land of no one. Aysén region has a population density of about 1 person per squared kilometer. The Carretera Austral (Highway 7) has thousand of kilometers of dirt roads, t

You can obtain the German citizenship without renouncing to the Chilean. From what I remember, you can't acquire a third (need to renounce to one). This is also true for other EU passports.

I've lately been thinking as trauma as an over-fitting problem. Trauma changes your internal representation of the world and makes you react differently in certain situations. An example would be to develop anxiety when in the freeway

Thanks! From the documentation and all the threads I searched in discourse, it was never clear to me that @parallel and pmap where aiming towards the direction you just described. I did try Threads.@threads, but the overhead was way too hig

I've gotten Cython-like speeds for non-parallelized code in a gradient descent task. I haven't been able to achieve the same speed as parallelized Cython code in Julia using either pmap or @parallel though. I wouldn't say it&

I think it's important to be on the same boat money-wise, while also expecting similar things for the near (or not-so-near) future. Questions: * Do they have any loans that need to be payed? If yes, how would this affect future decisi

Although this result sets up in some way a baseline, n (the number of choices) should be a random variable N in order to make things a bit more realistic. Edit: A brief comment on this case is mentioned here: https://en.wikipedia

I don't believe there's a generalized definition of consciousness. Nevertheless, from a fully experiential approach, my answer would be yes. Meditation, yoga, and even learning from psychology have definitely let me become more aw

It does! And actually, everything that you've mentioned has started to surface. But since I've only tried one specific technique/tradition, I was wondering if I was "missing out". I'd say I've practiced ku

May I ask, what specific technique/type of meditation have you been practicing? I've used some meditation exercises coming from kundalini yoga to tackle other problems, and they have worked wonderfully. Nevertheless, I haven'

I would recommend reading Code to Joy, by George Pratt and Peter Lambrou. It is an excellent book, that lets you understand how the mind works (basically, the relationship between conscious and unconscious mind), and how traumas affect our

I feel in a very similar situation. Throughout my life, I've always had abdominal pain under stressing situations, and in specific scenarios of high stress, there's a specific spot that hurts. The funny thing is that one of my gra

There are plenty of applications in system control, when you want to estimate a variable within a system (sometimes, it's just too hard or expensive to set a sensor). I've been close to applications that estimate the state-of-heal
