Isn't that description completely incomprehensible? It seems to be saying (in a roundabout way) that each participant was part of all 3 groups, with them taking the drug, placebo and nothing for a third of the year. There's a reas

Which made every single glyph on my laptop a blank rectangle. I guess there's a reason people don't want to take on the responsibility for these critical packages; who knows what horrible workflows you'll break! https:/

Python dependency management is the dragon-tyrant, and Poetry slayed it. And now we all wonder why it wasn't done years ago.

Not sure about the downvoting, the license is extremely strange. Forbidding individuals from sharing any changes they've made to the software is the complete opposite of what most licenses do. Also, CC explicitly discourages use of t

Is this doing some motion/object detection to automatically find good clips? I notice it's captured a clip of a crow wandering around the Edinburgh Zoo penguin enclosure ;)

I'd never heard the word 'lox' before (British). Etymonline[0] suggests that it arrived in American English in the 20th century via Yiddish. So I guess technically the English word has only existed for <100 years :( [0]:

Also worth noting that Keller was at Intel between 2018 and 2020.

It seems to me that this website was deliberately targeted so Google could stand up in the future and say that they also censor the left. Reddit did a similar thing in a recent ban wave where they picked off a few fairly tame left-wing subs

Unfortunately I can't see the results, and it's not working on archive.org either. What exactly does time-to-interactive mean? On my actual mobile (firefox with ublock), new reddit takes about 6-7 seconds to load in the actual con

I don't think it's much less hazardous than cigarette smoke, it's just that people don't tend to smoke 20 joints a day. Also, a bit of secondhand smoke outside isn't dangerous, it just smells bad.

This is really interesting stuff. Do you know of any services which show aircraft present in ADS-B but missing in, say, FlightRadar24?

Oops, I was slightly wrong here. It says "You will soon need to sign in to watch". Still very misleading imo. https://i.postimg.cc/yNKT82sp/Screenshot-20201104-102848.png This is part of their online news s

The BBC has a big problem with cargo cultery right now, copying large social media companies for the hell of it despite having completely different aims. For instance, if I tap the livestream on the homepage it will lie that I need to sign

Oh my goodness. I tried opening that sample app on mobile and it was like interacting with a touchscreen ticket machine from 2005. I don't know if it was just broken on my browser (firefox android), or expects me to have the latest fla

I think the reason the example with the photo is useful is because it shows how the colourmap creates features where none exist in the data (due to the nonlinear gradient). When looking at the photo with Jet I can see discrete areas of flat

I have rarely seen Jet used as a divergent colourmap (i.e. in places where the data is roughly centred around 0), and it would do a particularly poor job at this. There are two perceptual peaks in lightness, in the cyan and yellow sections,

I've seen a lot of ethnonationalist rhetoric online by middle eastern christian groups stating that they are the true heirs to the region, and that this is justifiable by genetics. I would take such claims with a large wheelbarrow of s

Quoting an authorities opinion on this matter is kind of oxymoronic when their opinion is that this isn't something to be dictated by authority. One wonders if it isn't slightly self-sabotaging of them to take this position.

How exactly did this get on the front page? The webpage itself is a mess and the article contains nothing of any substance whatsoever.

The 'better medicine' we have nowadays is less toxic but barely more effective than placebo (I would argue they ARE just placebo, with trials being invalidated by broken blinds).

There's another tool, tiv, which uses a wider range of unicode characters (and has done for years). It's quite slow though. https://github.com/stefanhaustein/TerminalImageViewer

Looks like it's just meant to highlight the futile nature of attempting to take down tools like youtube-dl. Although that doesn't quite work, since it almost certainly uses youtube-dl under the hood
