In that case, estate cars would like a word with the current crop of SUVs


My regular mechanic does that. "How much to get this car working again?" [sucks through teeth...]


So many variables unmeasured. How many hours per week? What sort of job? Something the parent finds meaning and purpose in, or just a paycheck? Surely these moderate the sign of the outcome


The built-in one in ableton is fine by me


Horses for courses...

If the game in the article captures what these are about, it didn't do anything for me. Interesting to read, though.

I've enjoyed some games that have a cozy vibe while actually presenting me with puzzles to solve. Monument Valley for example.


I suspect it goes deeper than language even. We have associative memories, right? Given our learning, modelling, pigeonholing of the world along with our changing bodies, our older selves are unlikely to experience anything close enough to what our younger selves experienced to trigger that association and recall the memory.


I'm approaching 70, and my mental model is that the graph is getting so big that it's getting harder to navigate through it to the memories I'm looking for.


FWIW I didn't read that as an argument against providing housing, I read it as an argument in favour of providing housing and treatment.


Yes. As the saying goes, If we knew what we were doing it wouldn't be research. Finished papers often have flaws, if you try to write something perfect you may never finish it. They're called limitations and you list them in conclusions and suggest addressing in future work.

(Experience check: I is one)


While we're here, any suggestions on what works better for writing math to a digital whiteboard? Wacom type tablet with no display, or an ipad type tablet with pen?


A display is much better for this. I recommend Samsung tablets, as the Wacom stylus they use can't awkwardly run out of battery on you in the middle of a class.


This is a very personal choice. A Surface-style tablet pc works best for me. The accuracy difference between an "active" Wacom pen and a glorified piece of plastic is noticeable. Display-less Wacoms have a much steeper learning curve before you produce good handwriting.


I use an iPad with pen and goodnotes. I can airplay it to linux with uxplay. All my notes are digital.


I would imagine something where you can see the immediate results of what you're writing under your pen to be better, otherwise you'd have to be facing the board somehow and not the class


to correctly judge some fizzbuzz solutions (or approaches to refactoring) you would also have to be knowledgeable. Guess what I think the problem is.
