Actually the port to Quest 2 Browser was fairly straightforward. Mostly there seems to be some slight differences with event handling. Needed to condition react code on contents of navigator.userAgent and thus specialize for Quest 2 browser. Otherwise easy.
has anyone seen a natural language interface to track ones carbon footprint? I developed the one in the link. I am wondering if similar work has been done in the quantified self area. I use this system everyday and it works for me at least.
Any ways, the system is available for free via AWS for anyone interested. See https://www.c-phrase.com.
OK I updated to include last digit and penultimate digit analyses. Essentially identical slightly skewed distribution for Biden and Trump. Go to site and see.
Conclusion: Enron type fraud detection does not yield a signal on USA county tallies.
I agree with you 100% and am willing to take the down votes.
This is extremely obnoxious and I would think that LinkedIn is afraid that people will leave the site in droves if this is allowed to continue...
I think most people would be happier if they saw it in more absolute terms. I have witnessed wealthy people made to feel like paupers when a yet more wealthy person puts on a display that they can't afford. The phenomena is actually quite comical.
Still it's fairly clear that wealth will always be a measuring stick that people will use to display their relative worth. It's like plumage. A lot of resources go into growing those fancy tail feathers. In itself I don't see anything wrong with that. It's quite natural.
However it's important for societal cohesion that the absolute wealth of the average does not fall and that they can maintain some semblance of dignity.
It's a long story, but the short of it is that circumstances forced me to follow option #2. I have open sourced the system. It's under BSD and in LISP.
I have not been so involved in c-phrase lately, but that is about to change in the new year -- I will have a reduced teaching commitment. :-)
Any ways I revised the installation guide recently and was wondering if any one could verify that they are able to install the system. Any questions or feedback on the system/code/design would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry, you are right. I misspoke. He rather has 'anarchist' leanings. He is against "systems of domination without justification".

Chomsky has a complex position that defies quick labels.
I think his analysis of the system is pretty accurate, but, of course I don't really see him as having presented any type of workable solution/alternative. But what brilliant analysis and critique!
I used to know Jim Buckmaster, the CEO of CL back in the day in Ann Arbor. He dated my sister for several years.
Any ways Jim is a really smart and together guy, and I would suspect in his heart that he takes a pretty dim view of people who shop for sex. At the same time I know him to be a person of principle and I suspect those principles are some type of Chomskyan libertarianism. BTW I wonder what Chomsky would say w.r.t. this controversy.
Clearly you have two opposing principles. One is free speech, the other is something that most feel is inherently exploitative and should be minimized.
Any ways, I suspect that CL gets more heat because they go against the grain of common corporate culture. Like I said, Jim is a man of principle.

Certainly there are cases such as you describe. But when I am working on a team, I would prefer not to do so with 'four hour work week' types. I know a loafer when I see one. ;-)
What would you fellow workers say about you? I have worked with people doing the 4 hour work week and honestly I can't say I was impressed. Kills the morale around the office when you work with loafers...
While I am sure we can all relate to your viewpoint, I think it's basically destructive to yourself and others.
You claim to "have too much of a conscience", but then you seem to be alright with working 2-6 hours and being paid for 40. Now if you were spending the remaining 34-38 hours doing something of value to others, society, etc. then I might be able to accept your stance. Are you? What exactly are you doing while you are getting paid?
Yes... I have seen this type of situation before. Is this a semantic web project?
Look I will be direct. Do you have an advisor yet? Is there anyone who you want to work with at the institution? Is it politically possible for you to switch to work under that person. If you can't name anyone at your institution, then is there anyone anywhere? If so, then you need to get there.
Getting a Ph.D. is a mentoring process. And you need to find someone who is the right fit. And then you need to become a world expert in a very specific area. That is how it goes...
thank god for recess! And school wasn't so bad. I mostly have happy memories (I guess I have forgot the bad ones).
Still I remember being so envious of the dog. I was forced to walk a mile through the snow/rain at 7 am and the dog just got to curl up next to the radiator. It's amazing that I was able to get up so early for so long.
