Better: quote the actual authors.

> We therefore tested whether the mindfulness trait predicted a reduction of grammatically congruent preferences ... Mindfulness was shown to correlate negatively with grammatically congruent responses

> Mindfulness was measured using the Dutch version (de Bruin, Topper, Muskens, Bogels, & Kamphuis, 2012) of the 39 item Five Factor Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ, Baer et al. (2006)).

> Working memory (WM) performance over sessions was analyzed with repeated-measures ANOVA. WM performance (LEVENSHTEIN) was indexed by mean Levenshtein distance between target sequence and remembered sequence ... Low Levenshtein distances therefore represent good WM performance, and high Levenshtein distance poor WM performance.

The WM variable represents mean distance between target sequences subjects were exposed to before they were told there was a pattern, and the sequences they generated attempting to recall them after being told there was a pattern.

The phrase, "grammatically congruent responses" appears only in the abstract, but it probably refers to the same thing as WM.

Sometimes, it's best to let your pattern matcher do its thing. Label your axes, kids.

Is there an argument to be made why $HELL is not a problem for the human race?

$HELL? Is that SHELL with a $? Is that Shell Oil and Gas? Is Shell Oil a problem for the human race? I suppose it could be, but your point escapes me.

Or maybe the $ is a typo and you mean the Christian notion of Hell? Is Hell a problem for the human race? Not likely as, even if it exists, it's only a problem in the after life. So again, your point escapes me.

Deploying a rails app to a VPS (e.g. digital ocean or linode) isn't that much harder than setting up a development rails server on your work machine. If you have some time in the next few days for a screenshare I'll walk you through it - johnnybrown<%= prime_numbers[3] %>@gmail.com

If you liked this comment, you will most likely enjoy the prince. It's a pretty faithful homage to Macchiavelli's argumentation style

I believe the 0 m/s refers to the boost stage's speed after a successful landing.

Since this is over the ocean, I interpreted this to mean reaching a state of stable hover.

It does, but the hover is at sea level... ;-)

bandwidth is the derivative of transfer over time. It has the same relationship to transfer as speed has to distance.

bandwidth = d(transfer) / dt

Actually my first thought was also, "well, it is targeted toward gamers". But Starcraft? Was your handle "uglyblacklesbianexxonexecutive"? I play starcraft II almost every day and I find the community very polite. The worst I ever see is occasional gloating after a victory or accusations of cheating in defeat. Most matches the only chat is "glhf" and "gg".

I don't think I've seen anybody acting badly either. I've even had people talk to me after thrashing me to give me hints on how not to lose so thoroughly next time. I've played since SC1, there's never really been anybody malicious in a decade or whatever it has been since then.

Yeah if most players are anything like me they're just trying to keep their production going. Firing off the standard insults you'd hear in CoD or Halo takes too much time.

> we’re getting roughly 80% less activity from Asia than we should in the absence of language constraints

Bit of an assumption here: absent language constraints, Chinese and anglophone developers would use Stackoverflow at the same rate. I'd say it's pretty likely that China has a popular programming QA site of its own.

I believe you are speaking past my point. [repeats point]
