I was fortunate to see Michael present this recently, and found the presentation convincing.

I may be a bit sheltered, but this was my first exposure to a study with so many volunteers completing involved coding tasks to assess language features.

I find Figure 3 to be particularly convincing: http://shitmyself.com/image/figure3.png

Why are you posting a link to a page which requires authentication?


If you refuse to provide authentication, the page will tell you the authentication to provide. Not sure why this mechanism is in place.


It is basically a captcha to keep out crawler bots.

I added an exception for images and then overwrote the config with a previous version... -_-

Should be fixed now.


Sorry about that, I fixed the configuration and it shouldn't require auth anymore.
