IANAL but that doesn’t sound like insider trading to me. That’s more like activist short-selling à la Hindenburg Research. This is assuming you don’t have ties to the organization that issues the token, if one exists.

Very cool! This is an insanely impressive sensor, but the proposed application is still in dream phase. > Going forward, the research team plans to continue enlarging the vocabulary of the device through machine learning and to test it i

This discussion reminds me a bit of the description of Fujitsu trying to implement Habitat in Japan: “…instead of sending a command message to the object on the server, the client would send the X-Y coordinates of your mouse click. The serv

Congrats on the launch! Some weird, random feedback—-I found the background music in your demo video surprisingly distracting! That probably seems petty but for me it was the strongest impression from interacting with your post. The super b

My wife has gone deep on the issue of adequate lunch time in our community, working with the school, local, and state officials and PTA to try to improve this. If you’re interested in learning more she’s compiled a lot of (U.S. centric) res

The only conclusion that seems even remotely supported by the evidence here is that writing by hand is important for learning letters . As in, learning your ABC's. No arguments there. The new study cited is a Norwegian small-sample-si

I was kinda hoping the Pop-Tarts themselves would be blowtorches. Unrealistic? Perhaps. But I set you this challenge: make a pastry of the correct shape and size with fruity filling of viscosity and reactivity such that, when ignited, it pr

They didn’t test learning at all; they tested writing a word or typing a word based on a Pictionary prompt. I’m not a research scientist, but it seems like you could look at this evidence and just as easily conclude that writing by hand inc

Highly recommend the Sold a Story podcast (mentioned elsewhere) for a synopsis accessible to laypeople. A big part was guilt by association with a behaviorist view of education. Phonics is very rote and mechanical, which clashes with notion

This is much easier to intuit if I imagine 101 urns. One is 0% red, one 1% red, one 2% red, etc. If I choose one urn at random, and then the first ball I pick is red, odds are good I picked a red-heavy urn. I’d be interested to see if the g

Agreed, it kind of reads like an overly long and insanely impressive CV passed along in a blasé sort of way. It paints Cochrane as someone who was a lot more interested in doing things than convincing people what cool things he had done, wh

This example is particularly salient because one point of evidence is a single emoji in a tweet: <full moon face emoji> This is a bit analogous to the “Shouting ‘fire’ in a crowded theater” idea, in that by default my intuition would

Great write up, thank you for making this! From a learning design perspective, the blend of static and dynamic prose based on my own packet’s journey was super cool, not something I’ve seen done quite that way before. Makes me imagine an on

Fascinating, thanks for the detail. It’s pretty cool that there are viable digital downgrade paths. Thanks!

Is falling back to USB a good idea? It seems like if it’s public knowledge that they’ll use removable media as a backup transfer system, it’d open a whole new attack vector for other systems.

Worked in a similar setup as a PM and really liked it. As you said, it can be somewhat apples-to-oranges comparing new functionality with a stream of tech debt opportunities, so it’s helpful to target a ratio, more like stocks/bonds in

Not sure I can prove it, but my intuition is that this actually flows in the opposite direction, i.e. we organically discover efficient organizational buckets and then ascribe boundaries and labels to those clusterings. I.e. the interface i

I agree in the sense that in both cases the argument that holds water is less about what’s “better” and more about what’s practical. The status quo is how millions of people do it, so if you want to communicate with them you’ll probably be

Classic encounter with an improper noun.[0] I think the more substantive critique here is that when people hear “learning styles” they stop thinking and just reject the idea reflexively. To be fair, this is a reasonable defense to a scam th

I want to try to articulate an idea I see represented elsewhere without dismissing the value of what’s being offered here. There are many comments to the effect that this is a crutch that will inhibit future learning. I agree with that asse
