Regarding 1., what do you think will be the selling point of this transition? There is very little that hospital monitoring devices can offer to the average person (do you need a daily ECG / EKG?)

Is there a word for this effect in education? Where the teacher forgets the context of the learner?

As far as I could tell playing around with it, the answer is no. You can load models, transform, animate, etc. but no vertex editing

This is a great start. I particularly like the View JSON capability (in the Scene tab for those interested)

Wow, getting some negative responses here. Personally, I'm rapt to see a message like this (especially on front page of HN)

Now that was some refreshing reading.

Looks great. Any idea who is backing it financially?

Peter Carey’s early novel Illywhacker [1] has a central character that is both practical and imaginative, and is a brilliant description of these two coexisting. Well worth a read. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Il

> “as a statement of opinion, rather than a statement of fact” I think your prior statement about ‘nuances’ discounts this as a fact. Perhaps your strong opinions are not entirely facts?

Come on mate. Think about Final Fantasy VII. Was the brilliance of the creativity entirely due to the new medium, or was it script / music / visual design first, 3D graphics engine second?

I think this kind of response muddies the issue. Refusing political ads by political parties or promoting political parties is a clean way to define things, and it sounds like this is what Twitter has done. You can argue that any other adve

You can do this within Vue if you like - you just increment the complexity of your exisiting component, rather than creating a new child

I disagree. Some doctors will attempt new procedures with only a company promoting new tools. I once saw a surgeon try out new combined cut & staple hardware designed for bowel surgery on a patient's liver, because he had been told

That was wonderful, thank you. > someone either with exceptional empathy or who has just mastered the material, recording notes for themselves and then sharing. Great stuff. Mr Nielsen lands firmly in the first category.

Thanks for your response Michael, and my apologies for the temerity of my initial comment. At the end of four years of Med school, I am truly Anki fatigued (and a bit fed up with learning facts about rare diseases I may never see in practis

That is a very elegant way to put what I said so grumpily, thank you.

As another commenter below notes, a recommendation is to spend one second reviewing each card. Thus, your cards are generally quite simple. This can very easily lead to a patchwork of simple details, but no glue holding them together. I’ve

As a long term user of Anki, I think the hype here is too much. Spaced repetition helps you learn facts, but that is such a limited representation of what learning something means. I get that the point of a mnemonic medium is to improve you

Thanks. It seemed to me counterintuitive to respond to protests about inadequate services by cutting off another service (fanning the flames)

From what I’ve gathered, disenfranchised citizens in Baghdad are protesting, and the government has responded by shutting down the internet. I understand it’s reactionary but what is their logic here?

Spot on. I like to think that the system-gaming doesn't necessarily disadvantage the committed and passionate researcher (who researches to satisfy personal curiosity).

I don't think the article suggests dispensing with the threshold, it suggests mainly that the language used to treat p < 0.05 is disingenuous and should be reconsidered: "We conclude, based on our review of the articles in this

Could you expand on what you mean by the 'abuse of knowledge'? I agree that the focus on this metric negatively influences research outcomes, which extends to university structuring, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on how

Can't wait to use this. The many times I've wanted to have simple motion graphics in FCPX but didn't want to shell out for Motion or AE, I wished something like this was available. More power to you

Agreed, and as an entry level program I think jamovi leads the pack https://www.jamovi.org/
