It's called UX Research.

I would try, for 10 minutes, the following solution: you listen to the lecture and repeat every word the lecturer said. Then use the record of your voice for the voice 2 text process. If it works, do it for the whole talk.

I asked gpt about the STAR format. The answer:

The STAR format is a structured manner of responding to a behavioral-based interview question by discussing the specific situation, task, action, and result of the situation you are describing. Here's what each component stands for:

1. *Situation*: Set the context for your story. Describe the event or situation that you were in. This could be from a previous job, from a volunteer experience, or any relevant event.

2. *Task*: After describing the situation, you talk about the actual task or challenge that was involved. This is the problem or issue that you were confronted with.

3. *Action*: Explain the actions you took to address the situation or task. This should be a detailed account of how you tackled the problem.

4. *Result*: Share the outcomes or results of the actions you took. Ideally, this should be a positive outcome that demonstrates how you effectively handled the situation.

Using the STAR format in a career document helps to clearly and effectively convey your accomplishments in a way that highlights your problem-solving and task management skills.

An e-bike would be the solution (not when it rains or snows, of course).

You are not alone in believing creative work and collaboration are much more difficult in a remote environment. But yesterday I watched the movie "A dangerous method" about Jung, Freud, and Sabina Spielrein. Well, at the time, collaboration was via paper mail. And my feeling is that they were more creative than we are. I'm not suggesting to go paper mail, but I couldn't help but observe this fact.

It's a little more nuanced. Causation can be inferred in an experimental design. If the researchers can manipulate the independent variable (the vaccine) using an experimental and a placebo group, and then they can measure a statistically (and clinically) significant difference, then we can assume that this is not just correlation.

> I don't think using intuitive associations with words helps clarify things Sincere question: do you think that "think using intuitive associations with words" can be safely translated to "compute using intuitive associations with words"? I don't think so. Therefore, even if thinking is also computing, reducing thinking to boolean algebra is a form of reductionism that ignores a number of emergent properties of (human) thinking.

Ux design is about doing research with the users, not about graphic design.

As a chartered psychotherapist, I would suggest you go to a psychotherapist. Furthermore, I suggest you have some "aerobic therapy" (that is, exercise) and, if you can, interact with some people. A couple of resources may help you gather some information and make a more informed decision: [0] https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/depression [1] https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/depression

I've been an inskape user for many years now. So I just decided to donate 20 USD. I hope somebody here will do the same.

The literature I know defines social presence as something that has only partially to do with technology (and Virtual Reality) [0]. The advantage of VR is that it can enhance the sense of immersivity in some circumstances [1]. [0] https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/01587919.2017.13...

New comment by sweetdreamerit in "Curiosity Is Better Than Being Smart?"

sweetdreamerit — Wed, 06 Oct 2021 12:28:32 +0000

I would define curiosity as a fundamental biological (and human) need. It's what drives the mouses in Tolman's experiments to explore the labyrinth even when satiated. It is a need because - from an evolutionary point of view - being curious increases the odds to gain useful knowledge and survive and thrive. Therefore, curiosity, in this perspective, is the intrinsically motivated drive to gain knowledge.

Am I wrong if I think that the most transmissible mutations tend to win the competition towards the less contagious ones in any case?

New comment by sweetdreamerit in "Whatever Happened to UI Affordances?"

sweetdreamerit — Sat, 26 Jun 2021 19:16:42 +0000

As a UX designer: too few companies understand the importance of UX and the difference between UX and UI. It is still too difficult to convince the stakeholders of the importance of user research, adherence to usability and accessibility guidelines, and user testing. Those activities have a cost, both in terms of money and time. But they can save a project, strongly reducing the risks of failure.

Your point is interesting. Can you cite some literature that supports it?

I would consider PageRank as a quite successful example of machine learning. Am I wrong?
