You're missing the bit where he has never studied under a Buddhist master and actively refuses to. Both Chan and Zen are traditions that are characterised by the belief that writte…

For the exploratory stuff I tend to use R in code blocks as I’m familiar with it. Sadly I’ve never really done much with Clojure, though its data capabilities always look very cool…

The main thing that I like is that it gives you nice table autocomplete as well as some nice metadata. As well as some connection management stuff. And it drives me mad because I a…

Did you ever try extending it out to other methods of probability estimation other than the forms of regression? I have only skimmed your excellent article, but I think you are fir…

Happy new year from Sydney HN. Thanks for all the lessons and cool discussions over the years.

Is anyone actively organising against this bill? I feel that ever since the Iraq war protests failed ever time some thing like this happens, people complain a little bit, but don't…

Piggybacking of this post, if anyone has any similar resources for best practices in modern C I'd be interested. There don't seem to be any moocs that go beyond introductory materi…

Yes, MotoGP allows traction control. Like all technical innovations it has led to a change in riders priorities and skills. Some people dislike it, but overall it's not accepted I'…

Counter steering tips the bike into a corner. Some form of lateral force from the front tire and gravity from the lean angle are responsible for the bike turning. In modern racing …

I love the idea. Yours is the first social network style site that I have joined. I do however, have a couple of comments and thoughts about the site. Firstly, when I sign up and a…

I presume you are acquainted with Buddhist thought on this matter? One of the central tenants of Buddhist philosophy is the idea that there is no such thing as the self, but rather…

Thanks again for a great post. Not sure this really adds anything to the conversation, but felt that I should thank you again. For what its worth, I never thought you were dismissi…
