Personally, Bash on Ubuntu on Windows is a fine solution for my most common use cases.

I think the most egregious example is latter seasons of The Big Bang Theory clocking in at 16 minutes. That's ~50% ads.

In the case of vaccines specifically, there is just a surprising amount of things we still don't understand. Vaccination is positively ancient technology (Smallpox circa 1796), but…

> There is so much money circulating in private markets, but employees just can't access it. This seems pretty unfair to me. Isn't this almost certainly by design?

I haven't looked into their new minion much yet, but how cheap are really talking about?

Originated in the 'magrittr' package. The early tidyverse used a different pipe before depending on magrittr's version.

Not to mention 'tweaking' required.

I bought directly and was passed around by Google and Huawei support for months (and multiple calls; hours of my time wasted - why can't anyone just do support by email anymore?) b…

> Is this "grammar of graphics" any good if you invest more time in it? For some, it was probably one of THE things that kept them using R over something else. Yes, definitely wort…

Overemphasis on commercialization is a common complaint of the current funding situation in medical research, so I don't think we're failing for lack of interest in commercial exit…

Quant-itative analyst. Yes, industry jargon.

Turning to the Vulkan API allowed me to comfortably play at 1440P, Ultra, 60FPS on my (aging) 280X... That just blows my mind.

I think this is true, but it's also the case that businesses that cater to the very rich are doing very well. My wife works for a luxury retailer who's Vancouver location is seemin…

Any chance you might be able to expand on this? I don't dislike OneDrive, but I've started to run into more and more issues with various machines falling out of sync unless I resta…

Many (most) of the things we're interested in measuring in blood are bound to some sort large macro-molecular assembly... be it cells, lipid vesicles, large protein agglomerates, e…

Faster because it isn't (currently) using compression (which rds uses by default) or faster period? Either way, the idea of mixed Python/R pipelines with feather file intermediates…

Large scale genomics initiatives certainly can be 'Big Data', but with the costs of read generation continuing to decrease, the pipelines described in the paper are going to come i…

It should manage drawing in OneNote ok, though.

This is very much appreciated: 1. As mentioned by others, there really is very little data on HD failure rates. 2. When you first published your blog on failure rates across HD bra…

Does anyone happen to know whether the quad-core atom mentioned would be sufficiently powerful to handle being a Plex client or Steam streaming client machine? This would make a re…

> I'm in biomedical sciences, have a Ph.D. and will be a professor at a very good school soon, but I don't give a crap about somebody's degrees. Many funding opportunities in acade…

It is until you realize how complex it is to quantify the costs to be balanced (early detection treatment costs, quality-adjusted life years saved, radiation exposure risks, etc.)

The only odd thing about this answer is that farmer 1 apparently decided to lower prices after selling 9 of his 10 chickens in the morning...

And Windows 8, Chrome.

The R portion needs some serious filling - for starters: you include the Julia wrapper to glmnet, which was originally implemented in R. glmnet - lasso/ridge/elastic net glm models…
