- Comment on Owen Wilson's "Wow" 5 weeks ago:
I did two post docs and they were great. I learned many valuable things, foremost among them that it was time to get the fuck out of academia.
Seriously I regret nothing, I had a great time.

- Comment on If you take care of your parents or other elderly, how are you preparing to age gracefully? 1 month ago:
I don’t have kids but I’d kind of like to have adult kids when I’m old. So maybe I can adopt a college age person when I’m like 50 or something
- Comment on I hate that I enjoyed singing that 2 months ago:
Needs one more syllable before The Simpsons Hit and Run. Like if the game “Black” was right before it.
- Comment on I'm working on it, ok? 2 months ago:
I did it by living well below my means for my first job.

Translate to gen x / millennial please
- Comment on Probability.... Need I say more?! 5 months ago:
I don’t like this comic because the frequentist statistician is operating with an effective n=1. You’d ask the detector 1000 more times, and use those results to get your answer.

No I want it to run locally
- Comment on What future AI applications are you most excited about? 6 months ago:
I want a personal assistant that actually works. Like Siri or Alexa, but it can actually do secretarial tasks.
“Find and schedule a roofing company to come fix the roof”
“See if you can get me dinner reservations for a nice Italian restaurant tomorrow night at 630”
“Write an email to bob apologizing for running over his dog”
“Find an image on the internet of a person being mauled by a bear, edit the picture so that it’s James being mauled, and send picture to him”
“Find a new show for me to watch and torrent the first episode, re-dub it in Japanese with Spanish subtitles”
- Comment on Does the rest of the English speaking world generally understand what an American means when they say "soccer", or does it help to clarify by adding "football"? 6 months ago:
And North America is in America

Hi OP I am an R dev.
Once you have some basics, try to use the built in documentation by typing ?fun where fun is the function you are trying to use. The examples are extra useful.

Jenga, when the towers fell
- Comment on How do I come up with a good username? 8 months ago:
a cool 3-letter username can be neat
Found out when I tried to get a domain name for my initials. Very fucking expensive.
- Comment on Microsoft addresses the huge Xbox leaks: here’s Phil Spencer’s full memo 9 months ago:
How about they buy sega instead
I want more sonic mania games and apparently sega won’t make them.
- Comment on there is Indeed a problem 9 months ago:
“No one wants to work anymore” does not mean what it’s individual words imply. It’s like “fucking hell”. It has a different meaning.
It means “we don’t want to pay, we think labor is too expensive”
- Comment on Totalitarianism. What are the good things about it? 9 months ago:
Single best form of government, if and only if your autocrat is highly competent and selfless. In other words, it’s an awful form of government.
Decisions can be made very fast though, this is why most governments have a mechanism by which they temporarily become somewhat autocratic (martial law, appointing a chancellor, etc). Note that this has been very bad when not temporary.
- Comment on Arithmetic has a biological origin – it's an expression in symbols of the 'deep structure' of our perception 9 months ago:
Math does not have any cosmic origin, it’s a tool we came up with to represent reality; a model.
The universe does not do math. It doesn’t count the number of atoms in a teacup, it doesn’t compare heights of trees to see which gets shade. Those quantities don’t exist: we made them up so we could understand the world.
- Comment on The salary a single person needs to get by in every U.S. state 9 months ago:
It’s averaged over the state. So there are places in California where you can, just not in the major cities.
- Comment on Do political assassinations generally help or harm the cause of the person that was assassinated? 10 months ago:
Well then, when the assassin is doing so in order to preserve some status quo, they win.
Example: MLK. Killing him did a great job of preventing a very very very charismatic leader from bringing white and black people together against their corporate overlords.
Another example is the infiltration and sabotage of OWS.
- Comment on What's their secret? 10 months ago:
Menopause. It shuts down a lot of the growth hormone crap involved in oncogenesis.

I don’t even show up for work on Friday, I have better things to do
Nobody has noticed yet
- Comment on Tech workers react to UPS drivers landing a $170,000-a-year package with a mixture of anger and admiration 10 months ago:
The only thing I’m really afraid of is that with organization, they’d learn how little work I actually do.
- Comment on [deleted] 10 months ago:
I would also like to know. I drive a 4runner and there is a TON of aftermarket parts that have that black flag on them. Rear window stickers, bumpers, decals, cargo organizers, etc. what’s the deal?
- Comment on Maybe the problem is that Harvard exists 10 months ago:
Great article, fantastic explanation of the logic behind causal inference.
But what the hell does any of it have to do with Fushimi Inari shrine?
