The coaches let the teachers choose the direction for coaching. They usually know better than anyone what their difficulties are.

Not long afterward, I watched Rafael Nadal play a tournament match on the Tennis Channel. The camera flashed to his coach, and the obvious struck me as interesting: even Rafael Nadal has a coach. Nearly every élite tennis player in the world does. Professional athletes use coaches to make sure they are as good as they can be.

Osteen watched, silent and blank-faced the entire time, taking notes. My cheeks burned; I was mortified. I wished I’d never asked him along. I tried to be rational about the situation—the patient did fine. But I had let Osteen see my judgment fail; I’d let him see that I may not be who I want to be.

Coaching aimed at improving the performance of people who are already professionals is less usual. It’s also riskier: bad coaching can make people worse.

Instead of meditating twenty minutes every day and getting marginally better over time, spend 10 days every year at a meditation retreat making giant leaps towards enlightenment, and just live your life for the other 355.

Elm applications are usually written following what we call TEA that stand for The Elm Architecture. It is just a loop that waits for events (clicks, etc.) and when they happen, it sends them to us so that we can react and change the interface accordingly. This animation explains The Elm Architecture cycle: GIF

New Ease = Avg Historical Ease * log(0.85) / log(historical succes rate) Where, Ease is the ease factor of the card, 0.85 is the desired 85% success rate, and the historical success rate is the ratio of reviews that were answered Hard, Good, or Easy.

The result is that a card’s ease factor adjusts to whatever range of ease (or laziness) causes you to mark the card as Good. Unless you’re a very disciplined and consistent person, this range is likely to be pretty wide, and the boundaries are likely to move drastically with your mood.

With this equation, it won’t matter whether you choose Easy, Good, or Hard. The success rate over time will tell us whether the ease factor is too easy (over 85% success), or too hard (under 85% success). We don’t have to think about it anymore. We can just select between Again and Good; a simple binary choice between getting a card right and getting it wrong.

Now with a true representation of the input, you can build the chord detection logic by checking the notes against major scales. If we assume all chords contain their root we can build the major scale corresponding with the lowest note and quickly check to see which pieces of it are present, or declare this "not a chord" if we have a note that isn't part of the scale. Above, we'd find the C, E, G, D and realize it's a 1/3/5 chord + the 9th note of the scale and call it {base} add 9.

А Вы не пробовали ripgrep-all (https://github.com/phiresky/ripgrep-all)? Это враппер над rg для поиска по документам. Он вообще всеядный: работает с pdf/.doc/.docx, sqlite, архивами, etc.

The only thing that's left is restricting the search to git repositories only. Ripgrep relies on regexes, so we can't do something like Xpath queries and tell it to only search in directories, that contain .git directory. I ended up using a two step approach: first, my/code-targets returns all git repositories it can reach from my/git-repos-search-root. I'm using fd to go through the disk and collect all candidate git repositories. Even though fd is already ridiculously fast, this step still takes some time, so I'm caching the repositories. Cache is refreshed in the background every five minutes so we don't have to crawl the filesystem every time. That saves me few seconds on every search. then, my/search-code keybindings invokes ripgrep against all my directories with code, defined in my/code-targets function.

I choose ripgrep, as explained in the comparison here it’s the fastest search tool available.

The PanzerGlass™ screen protector in black for iPhone X/Xs/11 Pro with antibacterial coating has the same features as the original PanzerGlass™ and will protect your screen from scratches and bumps.

This is an ever evolving list of tools and scripts I use and recommend, or combinations of tools I use to optimize my workflow.Most of these are command line based. On a regular day, the only GUI tool I use is my browser.

The motivation behind TiddlyMap is to combine the strengths of wikis and concept maps in the realms of personal knowledge management in a single application.

Instrument Level is the most variable level signal which will travel through a TS (Tip, Sleeve) jack connection and will also require a preamp to be raised to Line Level. "Inst" should be selected whenever you connect an instrument, such as a guitar or bass guitar, directly to your interface.

Word vectors capture the context of their corresponding word. They're often inaccurate for extracting actual semantics of language (for example, you can't use them to find antonyms), but they do work well for identifying an overall tonal direction.

We can match up fonts and icons with similar visual features using their neural embedding, which generally produce more cohesive logos.

Logos are essentially abstract illustrations, but clearly not all illustrations make for good logos. In order to create logos systematically we need some notion of what makes a logo good in a visual sense

Annotate your photos Tropy’s beautiful annotation tools allow you to transcribe documents, select image details, and manipulate photographs to get the clearest view of your sources.

This is an easy case, and you can just retrieve all over again every time. Example: Pinboard API, there are just a few megabytes of data you have on Pinboard and API doesn't prevent you from retrieving all of it at once.

Now, remember I mentioned that Reddit only gives you the latest 1000 items, so I end up with overlapping data slices? To get a full view of my data, I'm simply going through individual JSON files in chronological order and merging together in accumulate method. [optional] caching layer I've got Reddit data way into past and export it every day, so merging together all these files during data access can indeed take a noticeable time. I'm overcoming this by using a @cachew annotation on the comments() method.

Boosting is an approach to machine learning based on the idea of creatinga highly accurate prediction rule by combining many relatively weak and inaccu-rate rules

Because Anki is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can greatly decrease your time spent studying to learn vocabulary.

Put another way, in Miller's account the chunk was effectively the basic unit of working memory. And so Simon and his collaborators were studying the basic units used in the working memory of chess players. If those chunks were more complex, then that meant a player's working memory had a higher effective capacity.

I said above that I typically spend 10 to 60 minutes Ankifying a paper, with the duration depending on my judgment of the value I'm getting from the paper. However, if I'm learning a great deal, and finding it interesting, I keep reading and Ankifying. Really good resources are worth investing time in.

First, if memorizing a fact seems worth 10 minutes of my time in the future, then I do it** I first saw an analysis along these lines in Gwern Branwen's review of spaced repetition: Gwern Branwen, Spaced-Repetition. His numbers are slightly more optimistic than mine – he arrives at a 5-minute rule of thumb, rather than 10 minutes – but broadly consistent. Branwen's analysis is based, in turn, on an analysis in: Piotr Wozniak, Theoretical aspects of spaced repetition in learning.. Second, and superseding the first, if a fact seems striking then into Anki it goes, regardless of whether it seems worth 10 minutes of my future time or not.
