Neurology is the study of disorders of the nervous system. This is theoretical neuroscience. FTFY.


It's theoretical neuroscience. If you have philosophical difference write a position paper.


?? I don't have a philosophical difference. I just don't believe they did their due diligence. Based on my personal experience in the lab where I was constantly pressured to do garbage science in the name of shiny results...


This sounds a little like a lab I was once part of. I’m now in an entirely different field of research.


That's a philosophical difference. I don't disagree, but given the various constraints involved what you're asking isn't possible. Additionally, I'd note that it sounds like they are practicing Lean methodology - which is justifiable.

If I work in a kitchen with unsanitary working practices, does that mean I have a philosophical difference with the restaurant because I don't want to eat their filthy food?


The comparison falls flat in too many ways.


I'm sorry, what am I asking?


In your own words, you are asking for 'science'. And if you click the link through to the SEP, you'll see that it's well documented that this is, in the words of Stephen Wolfram, A New Kind of Science.


#reddit


Why on earth was this downvoted? Reddit started by creating fake users and fake content - much like stocking shelves with empty boxes.


People don't read terms of service. In using your phone who knows what you agreed to let your phone company do with your FB data.


An apparent molecular biologist speaking about cognitive biases... no irony there.


I use a 2015 Chromebook Pixel.

- Stand up an Amazon WorkSpace and RDP to it for Windows work - Use Android apps - Install Ubuntu using crouton

That's pretty much it. Use it all day every day.


This is really stupid. You can do anything in a GUI.


In general, you can do in a GUI what the programmer planned to enable you to do. As was mentioned previously in this thread, programmers come up with some sort of "graphical programming" frequently, recreating the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner-platform_effect -- Which brings us back to the plain text language of programming and processing where all this is already available.


The deeper abstractions are lost on you, young padawan.


If this is criticism, I don't understand it.


Yes, yes, downvote me, let the hate flow through you.

Doesn't change that you can do anything in a gui :)


In psychology the senior author comes first. Here we have mixed paradigms in authorship. Putting Kurzweil last is definitely intentional.


It would need to be automatically collated by an AI with access to the Internet Archive that is probably quite a bit more sophisticated than what we currently have. DMOZ is the closest curated thing I can think of.


DMOZ seems to have some good resources, going through it quickly I found http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/index.html which has a very good bash intro!


Not sure why I was downvoted. It's not as if the person downvoting me provided a better option than I did!


LinkedIn requires logging in because the Supreme Court rules they couldn't really stop us from scraping public profiles. Forcing us to login makes it easier for them to control who has access to what content.


IAAL. There's been no Supreme Court ruling on the matter, only a district court decision ruling that the CFAA can't be used to charge scrapers with a crime. And that case is currently being appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn, case no. 17-16783).


(thumbsup). But that's my overall take.


This makes no sense to me. Anyone willing to scrape a profile will create dummy accounts to do so. And even if this step somehow prevented data scraping, the network effect will make it extremely hard to compete with LinkedIn.


It is much more difficult to pretend to be a real person with a real job and real employment and education history with real connections.
