The best thing you can do is make your TV dumb by not connecting to the internet. Then use an Apple TV or whatever Android stick there are on commerce.


Always check the item on camelcamelcamel before buying on Amazon. A lot of times you will find surprises in the prices chart.


Italian alphabet is very simple. Only add some accented letters to the base english alphabet (àèéìòù and uppercase variants). Still today I see a lot of Latin 1 / UTF-8 mixed errors. That's the reason why is very common to see "E'" in official documents instead of "È" and so on.


No, the reason for E’ is that it doesn’t appear on the keyword and there’s no obvious way to make it work.

You’ll also occasionally see PERCHè for the same reason.

Also non-digital natives don’t really know the difference between É and E’ on paper, they all look the same.


You can disable ads but the checkbox is deeply buried in the support menu page. Also the preference is reset every time Samsung update the T&C (more or less once a month). I added 6 Samsung domains to my Pi-Hole blacklist [1], domains that are queried dozens of times a day.

Where exactly can you choose this through the desktop ui?


It’s in the Privacy tab below the blacklists.


I have worked remotely for three years. Here are my tips:

Slack is your best friend but if you chat for more than a minute straight about something technical call your collegue otherwise you will lose your time.

Written language is not spoken language. Sometimes misunderstandings can arise.

Do separate your work environment from your daily life. If your house is small, like mine, light off your computer during lunch otherwise you will find yourself reading some docs, checking some code, etc.

Video conferences are not phone calls. When my team need to stay focused everybody have appear.in open in the background.

Always dress like you will dress if working in your office.


In my remote team we use appear.in. It's a great product.

> Gras and Golestanti have patented the software, and now need a device that can constantly monitor a patient’s EEG.

As far as I know there are no portable devices that can produce a clean EEG. Motiv/Neurosky devices don't count.

Addendum: in the USA you can't drive a car during the 365 days following the last seizure


> Gras and Golestanti have patented the software,

yuck

imagine if the fast fourier transform had been "patented"

imagine if the "mean" (sum of all values divided by the number of values) had been patented

do they even give the full algorithm in the paper? if not how was the paper published?

OK went to the actual paper: http://goo.gl/hkiQKp

How can they patent the algorithm when the work was funded by the government (i.e. the public)? Even if it's legal, it's not ethical.


You can now get Ti ADCs that can be used for capturing EEG data from electrodes for around $30 iirc, so surely it'd be possible to make one cheaply enough?

I'd agree, and the portable ones don't give access to raw data so you have to hack them. I wonder if a robust headset will come to market soon?



Doesn't seem to be getting the new design yet. In the screenshot I see the old version.


Safari 8 has no problems with "image/svg+xml". It renders the "image" if you open the link: http://funny.computer/cloud/XNG/distance.xng

For getting the xng on the page just replace the <img> with an <embed>.


Would have been very cool if it could have worked on all browsers using a simple img tag.


Safari 8 on Yosemite here, and it animated that link for me.
