Healthcare is a rather complicated field if you are not already working in healthcare. Also, healthcare is highly regulated. It really depends on what you did before but green renewable energy sounds interesting to me (who to some extent wo

Unison does one-to-one synchronization (local or remote). It puts more emphasis on reconciling sync conflicts. It can handle symlinks. It isn't really maintained, is it. It has problems on windows. It's written in Ocaml which had

Such kind of biometric authentication sometimes/often is used in combination with something else - a pin, password etc. You then get authenticated by something that matches your body and a secret.

Since the article doesn't mention test power (and should it be for the reason of rebuttal of that Pearson-Neyman concept) I don't think it's a worth read. Sorry. "studies with small sample sizes can be very valid."

There are also Fußgängerzonen in other districts like Mariahilf, Meidling, Favoriten etc. You're right that they are mainly for shopping but the shops were already there before the streets were turned into Fußgängerzonen. The Fußgänger

Complain to the local politics who made this (the shopping centers at the town's outskirts) happen although it was already known what effects this would have on the town's center. This is a pretty common development in, e.g., Lowe

The data probably isn't fake but its interpretation could be biased by statistical incompetence. I say this as somebody who (originally) graduated in a field where the majority of studies most likely is not worth the storage used to sa

Twin studies sometimes are less rigorous than they seem to be. Some people go a long way to prove what they think is right, see Sir Burt: https://www.google.com/search?q=scientific+fraud+twin+studie...

This is great and everything but is there really a need to get this status report every year. If so, shouldn't it rather read: still leaving the Solar System?

Did it actually "fail" or was it discarded? As a Mac user from back then, I remember copland only from some articles and from macos gadgets that made the classic macos somehow look like copland, i.e. like a weird teeny disco box.

You're probably right if you look at the mere amount of bio mass. I'd wager you're wrong if you look at the complexity & general level of activity of life forms. Unless you find a way to efficiently get the oxygen out of

Maybe they came from a gas planet and they came to invade the deep sea because that's what home looks like. Unfortunately, these super intelligent beings failed to understand that, on Earth, most of the fun happens on land.

They don't tell where they took the translations from and who created these translations. Given your examples, I assume the whole thing is based on Gutenberg or some similar, not on machine translations. If it were humans who made thes

Following this typology: Man in the hole? The "Master and Margarita" isn't that complex with respect to its basic plot. The plot doesn't tell you much about the story though.

Or maybe, every story has one of this one basic plot: (1) setup/intro/beginning, (2) stuff happens, (3) things somehow come to an end (for now).

You should define what kind of simplicity you're asking for: An easy to understand explanation or a simple formula. I actually think that J Pearl & Co in the Book of Why provides a good example of the former.

You're mosly right about pronouciation but German pronouncation isn't as regular as e.g. Spanish or Italian. In German you have open and close vowels, i.e. the "e" can sound slightly different depending on its position i

I think it's a rather classic problem. Does it move? Is the arrow there the same arrow as it was here? How did it get from here to there? The problem here is of course cutting time into intervals where the arrow (or the self) has a sta
