I think this may be a misunderstanding on your part (no disrespect). Cut/paste works slightly differently on macOS compared to Windows. There's no actual concept of "cut". You just "copy" whatever files you wan

Creating a Hyper Key (i.e., remapping capslock to become an additional modifier key) is a game changer! I use Capslock [1] with Karabiner Elements on macOS. [1] https://github.com/Vonng/Capslock

I share your frustration and agree with a lot of your points, and in fact I was motivated to solve a lot of these problems while in med school. My thought was that all you need is technical expertise on healthcare data to revolutionize the

It's not illegal. It's just very complicated to do correctly, and you risk large fines if you do it incorrectly.

Before you can even do the statistical analysis you suggest, you need large amounts of high quality data—which we don't have. One place where the US (and the world?) gets data privacy right is in healthcare, but unfortunately that also

Yes, it's absolutely very difficult to do rigorous statistical analysis. Genetics is oversimplified to non-physicians. It's cool that we can diagnose and predict the likelihood of getting Huntington's disease using our knowle

I'm guessing you haven't heard of Goodhart's Law? ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law ) Under your proposal, surgeons will be incentivized to selectively operate on easier patients and minimiz

Your idea is analogous to what’s done in MRI image reconstruction. “Images” are actually obtained in the frequency domain, but there are various undersampling strategies to accelerate the frequency domain data acquisition. These are then re

You’re touching on a huge topic, and I can’t do it justice, but the simplified answer is that blocking voices “fairly” is nearly impossible. If you choose to block some voices, you inevitably have to draw a line regarding what is allowable

I think this is an underrated idea in many domains. So many different things, including grant funding, university admissions, etc. should use a minimum threshold criteria with acceptances randomly granted to those meeting the criteria. The

That’s true, and I do use public transit for about 80% of my travel, which I can only do since I live in a major city. Problem is that I also need to make 1–2 hr trips to the suburbs and out of state every week, and I can’t get away from ca

I tried it. Doesn’t work so well in practice since you have to book several days in advance to actually get a car sometimes.

That sounds great, and I can’t wait! Car ownership is a massive pain and time suck for me. Finding and paying for parking, insurance, and maintenance are huge costs in terms of both money and time. Not to mention the fact that my car spends

As with most investment advice, it totally depends on your risk tolerance, age, and other life circumstances. If you’re 25 with a solid job and some surplus money to invest, a high risk strategy may be worthwhile. The upside can be immense

Vaccination is less of a supply problem and more of a distribution and demand problem. One vaccine administered in the western world does not mean one vaccine has been made unavailable to the third world. It's similar to food scarcity,

This is such an oversimplified view of how medicine works. I'm not even sure how to begin a counterargument. In medicine, bad outcomes can occur without being sure of the cause. For example, let's say a patient who currently smoke

How are they supposed to frame it? “Sorry we messed up the keyboard. We’re putting a regular one back in.” Doesn’t seem like great phrasing for launching a new product.

It’s definitely possible to do, and many companies are able to do it (eg RapidAI). I’m also not an expert in this specific problem, but there are HIPAA/privacy/security concerns that need to be addressed with the radiology departm

With the segmentations these models create, you can create reports that quantitatively describe the changes in different tumor tissues. That info can be useful for guiding chemotherapy and radiotherapy decisions. Currently, the accepted pra

Hey! I actually handled the data coordination for the BraTS data sets. We used a combination of the best algorithms from prior years of the BraTS competition to pre-segment the data sets, and then we had experts (fully-trained neuroradiolog

But VPN A has to relay the request for facebook.com to VPN B, meaning that VPN A has to be aware of the user's final destination. If my interpretation of this is incorrect, then how does VPN B become aware of the request for facebook.c
