IMO - Any corporate policy or program aimed at changing employees themselves, rather than the work environment and corporate ethos is doomed to failure. I'm all for incentives, but what you really want are engaged employees in the righ

Or, if you can spend the cash, there's this most excellent plugin: https://u-he.com/products/satin/ There are other tape saturation plugins, a few even free, but this is the best I have found.

Musique Concrète is the near ancestor of the West Coast school of synthesis, the Tape Music Center, Don Buchla, et al. While I do not care much for MC, tape music or WC synthesis (more of a Moog guy myself), I do appreciate the work they di

Wikipedia's math content is, in a way, unique. I can read and comprehend almost any scientific topic there except math. And, it's not like I am not capable of understanding. I am a highly abstract thinker, and have an intuitive un

It is inevitable that malfeasance will spread, for the simple reason that as the police are required, in big ways and small, to violate the rights of the people they are supposed to protect, those who do not wish to do so will leave the for

Because it would be in such small and diffuse quantities that unless we were specifically looking for it, we likely wouldn't find it. As for stumbling upon it, all our measurement techniques are calibrated to hadronic matter, so...

Hard to find something when you are not looking for it, and don't know what it looks like.

Easy has nothing to do with it. It's not like you have to renew an IQ test. You either passed it, or you didn't. An expired membership card proves they passed a proctored test just as well as an active membership does. In any case

Could this also explain why Mensa's admission standards have been watered down in recent years? I mean, on paper, they are still the same, but in practice - not so much.

The more they pull this historical muckracking crap, the less people are going to care when real racism is happening right in front of them.

Except that's exactly what Plato said. If one were to grant the possibility of some other realm where numbers are real or archetypes, then one is not an nominalist at all, as the author of this paper seems to be (although he may actual

I agree regarding the completeness of type theory in regards to Turing computability. But I disagree regarding paradoxes in ZFC. Russel's paradox specifically applies to naive (simple Cantor) set theory, something the ZFC was explicitl

by teilo 8y ago
No one is saying type theory is useless, particularly when it comes to computation. It works within its own boundaries, but it does indeed have boundaries. There is a reason the ZFC has triumphed in mathematics.

by teilo 8y ago
Anyone who prefers type theory to (non-naive) set theory does so for philosophical reasons. Therefore your argument is self-defeating.

Sorry to sound like a broken record on this post, but Mikrotik does this. Everything can be flashed. Bootloader and OS. You can even get into a bricked unit via MAC address and their Netinstall utility, and wipe the whole thing with a clean

It was noticed by some vendors. They just didn't know what it was. Mikrotik, for example, posted a warning on their forums months ago, when their users noticed a sudden uptick in attempt to get at ports 80 and 8291. In this case the at

This is a multi-vector, multi-architecture attack, and while we know some of the vectors, we don't know them all. Some were due to vulnerabilities in the router's web admin. Mikrotik routers were compromised in this way. In this c

I also have a dev account, but, as a rule, wait until at least the first public beta, and usually the second. That's probably a few dev betas away at this point.

Woah! I totally missed that. This is a first. And it's free for Reason 10 owners. The product key was already in my account when I logged in. And is has a scalable UI. I wonder if this is a foretaste of things to come? Maybe Thor next?

Well, one reason is that, unlike in Reason, you don't need a magnifying glass to use it on a higher-res display. Honestly. We are at Reason 10 and there is still no interface scaling or retina support. A better question is: Why can&#x2

Because we have to deal with people as they are, and not as how we want them to be. This is for sending large assets from party A to party B, where either the parties do not have access to a shared rsync-capable server, or they do not know

A lot of what we thought we knew about neuroplasticity and age has proven to be wrong. If it plays any factor at all, it appears to be secondary. This is good news for people of any age. Neuroplasticity decline cannot be controlled. Other f

This reminds me of Riverworld. (Working from memory here - it's been a while since I read it) In the civilization that Sam Clemens created/participated in, they basically did this - recreated an industrial society which had basic,

And actually, QuickBasic came first. It's final release was v.4.5 in 1988. QBasic happened much later, 1991, as part of MS-DOS 5.0. It was considered to be a subset of QuickBasic. So QuickBasic, as well as it's big brother, Micros
