Does it do any architecture-specific processing, i.e. BCJ filter? Or is there a generic version of this? The performance seems quite good.

Not even limited trials with a long window of study (how long?) will prevent this. Science itself is a non-holistic way of looking at the world, blind to what is not measured. Conc…

This is interesting, but I'm guessing most of the effect is due to the novelty of the "robot". Most kids have probably seen a tablet before, and not this.

It seems like it'd be possible to have a separate recovery key stored by the company in addition to the regular password.

Amazon (amazon.com side)'s revenue depends on consumer behavior. If marijuana use in the general population is thought to change consumer behavior in their favor, then they would b…

My point is that there might be unconscious biases at play in parents, no matter what they might respond to a survey. It's not feasible for parents to account for 100% of their beh…

That survey result has very little to do with the assertion that there is such a social pressure. All it implies is that respondents think it would be nice if there were.

Yep, the fact that this question is even being asked shows that flawed assumptions have been made. We don't even have to get into the nature/nurture debate: It's possible that your…

If there's a cellular radio. it has to be declared to the FCC. You can look up your TV's FCC ID to verify that it doesn't have one. I'm not aware of any TV that has an embedded cel…

Newer cars disable the passenger airbag if the weight of the occupant is less than a certain threshold (65 lbs according to https://owners.honda.com/vehicles/information/2018/Civic…

If you use a browser with a Reader mode, it often works to enable Reader mode and then refresh the page.

I had the CamScanner app on my iPhone for quite some time, then uninstalled when I launched it and saw (IIRC) Chinese text appear. I'm assuming that ownership changed around that t…

I disagree with the point about fonts. Computer Modern or similar will look much more professional than the listed modern fonts, in my opinion.

You're assuming that the distribution is uniform, but I think it's likely that the majority of Americans do not know anybody who was shot, while a (still decent-sized) minority kno…

18 is a good age to begin the transition from being dependent on parents to bearing responsibilities themselves. Keeping the kids in the house too much longer than that can make it…

When you are elderly, who will take care of you? > In addition, my children WILL NOT be living at home until they are 30 ... I agree with you here -- independence is the ideal. But…

The saints are people who followed the principles of the religion. It's disingenuous to suggest that the actions of those who flouted Christianity's principles and rules should be …

If you are working 10-12 hours a day, expand your job search to locations which involve a 1-2 hour commute each way. (Assumption: you can find something that only involves 8 hours …

There's a transcription available if you click the page-looking button in the sidebar.

If you haven't seen it yet, this video might lend an interesting counterpoint to your "all metaphor" perspective, it has a discussion from Jonathan and Matthieu Pageau who claim "t…

This is what Tor does, I believe. The problem with spoofing the fingerprint is that all the features that allow you to be fingerprinted are features that are in use by some site or…

Although social media might be the wrong thing to take aim at, I would argue that rising expectations for standard of living definitely have helped to reduce the amount of (relativ…
