You would do well to learn about effect size and p values. Your common sense guess at what might be reliable is incorrect, which means your doing a disservice to your own understanding of the world.

> This also seems like a straightforward example of how mainstream feminism is bad at intersectionality.
Can you explain? What are they bad at?
I can put anyone in touch with the founders, if you'd like.

Can you say more about this? "already we are seeing the emergence of extremely rough AIs contain people in information bubbles."
Any other reading to recommend?
Seeking short term contracts to supplement existing employment.
I am a human/machine interface developer. My work consists of "from scratch" UX and interface design, from the napkin to nginx. I have considerable experience with Ruby and Javascript, years of experience with Rails, and extensive knowledge of client-side MVC. I've made contributions to Ember.js, and have written multiple 10k+ LOC apps - starting with 0.9 up to the latest 1.9.1 (one was featured on Venture Beat: http://venturebeat.com/2013/07/22/uniiverse-releases-direct-...). I am acutely aware of the challenges/strategies associated with migrating server side architecture into the browser, leaning down views, and fattening up controllers.
I am the author of an open source project called Quant (https://github.com/jdjkelly/quant) - a Rails API + Angular.js app to track "quantified self" data from every manufacturer willing to give it up. My work here was featured on The Verge alongside a similar project by the founder of Foursquare (http://www.theverge.com/2013/6/4/4392996/fitness-tracker-dat...)
Recently, I also contributed to the development of an iOS app, which is now in the app store: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/ticket-manager-by-uniiverse/.... I was responsible for integrating a credit card device reader with an existing checkout API, testing, and delivering a final build to the app store.
Languages and frameworks I've used: Ruby, Rails, Mongo, Postgres, Sinatra, Node, Objective-C, Javascript (ES6 too!), Coffeescript, Sass, Ember.js, Backbone.js, Angular.js, jQuery, HTML5, CSS3, Neo4j, Redis, Logstash, ElasticSearch, EC2, S3, AWS generally
Other tools in the box: Git, Zsh, pencils, pens, paper, Photoshop Contact is in my profile.
And that's the crux of the question isn't it? How do we determine if the intelligence is recreated or merely mimicked? Does such a distinction matter? Searle says yes. More here if you're interested: http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/chinese-room/
Regardless, yes, this is to be expected. But reality isn't normative - it just is. The question is, ought it be that way.

Around the age of eleven, though, kids seem to start treating their family as a day job. They create a new world among themselves, and standing in this world is what matters, not standing in their family. Indeed, being in trouble in their family can win them points in the world they care about.
The problem is, the world these kids create for themselves is at first a very crude one. If you leave a bunch of eleven-year-olds to their own devices, what you get is Lord of the Flies. Like a lot of American kids, I read this book in school. Presumably it was not a coincidence. Presumably someone wanted to point out to us that we were savages, and that we had made ourselves a cruel and stupid world. This was too subtle for me. While the book seemed entirely believable, I didn't get the additional message. I wish they had just told us outright that we were savages and our world was stupid.
EDIT: Ah, I'm not the smartest cookie in the jar. It, in fact, has nothing to do with Golang. I agree with the poster below who mentions this criticism.
Primary consumers would be developers who're building products that depend on the user inputting this type of data - or warehouse logistics companies who could catalog this sort of data and middleman it to everyone else.
His work on Ruby Koans helped me tremendously when learning Ruby. And of course there's rake. This sort of thing feels like an appropriate match to his own contributions to the community. I couldn't give much, but hopefully my little bit can help.
A few notes for the developers of the page: the form fields are wonky on Firefox (upstream on Aurora at least) and I'd suggest a country field for non-Americans.
I'm curious why you decided to implement this with a poller instead of with a Websocket. There's actually a reasonably detailed answer about how to do this sort of thing with Ember Data in the emberjs.com guides: http://emberjs.com/guides/models/frequently-asked-questions/...
Either way, how did you find working with Ember Data in general? What were the main sticking points?
I think this landing page would be substantially improved if there was further detail about the professional history of each of the authors. Perhaps a few words about any notable Go related projects that they've been a part of.
