Apparently they have (had) 123 showrooms (and perhaps concessions). So imagine if you need to keep these open 7 days a week, maybe 10 hours a day and staff them to cover holidays then you're probably looking at ~6-10 staff per site which is a fair old chunk. They might not all be full time so that headcount might go up even further. Then on top of that area managers, maybe 10-15 show rooms per manager? It all adds up.

Their headcount certainly surprised me for a cycling on the internet company :)
I'd love to see how this is written into the contract. I've worked on the company side with a lot of contingency recruiters and the wording is never broad enough to cover "we talked to them but didn't actually send them to you".
It’s a one line script change with notarytool. This is an overblown concern.
Check out WildCardPeople, [1] a specialized job board that should fit your description. While it is not "an ADHD job board", my understanding is that they care about the ADHD community, and they seek out employers who would benefit from the strengths that many ADHD people exhibit.

Well, just letting it expire would certainly halt local development at <dayjob> until renewing. The primary reason for this is that some integrations require TLS for callbacks, so we have a local reverse proxy serving everything with TLS enabled. Hence, it's just more pragmatic to run the dev environment with TLS enabled all the time: no need to modify configurations and reset the browser cache when moving between a TLS and non-TLS setup.

I do get emails from the CA reminding me to renew a month or so before expiry, and the certificate hasn't been revoked as of yet, but it'd be useful to be alerted regarding the latter, were it to happen.
In my entirely non-medical opinion, it sounds like psychological effects could be responsible for a large part of why you are in such a bad way. Even if they are not the root cause, they could be severely clouding your judgement of things by forming negative feedback and biases. I know you've had too many responses to always reply to the threads, but the impression I was getting is that everything that should be good for you makes you feel worse. Something there points to a non-physiological component. I'm not saying it's all in your head, but a large part could be, stopping you from solving the other part.

With chronic pain/depression and those kinds of things it can be very easy to give up quickly or think that nothing can help. You have become conditioned for failure. It sounded like you had given a limited chance to normally healthy things like sunlight, exercise, and good diet. As others mentioned - 15 minutes may not be enough if you are already having issues. Packaged foods are not healthy. Try to dedicate a month to genuinely healthy living, regardless of if you feel it's working. No crazy diets or colonic irrigations, but eat real foods that your ancestors would have eaten. Drink water not caffeine/alcohol/sugar. Do both regular and vigorous exercise. Socialise, in real life. Get all the things that we were "designed" for, and none that we weren't. Stick it at. See if it's still not working after a dedicated, longer term trial. It will be difficult - it's hard enough for people with no problems!

Additionally - have you tried going deliberately sleep-deprived? Or fasting? Can you go 2-3 days without sleep, sleep well, and still feel tired?
I assume your project is the site you talked about in an earlier submission. If that is the case, here are a couple of observations:

The site looks very clean and I think another one or two ads would be ok, as long as they are relevant and of high quality. The current ad for screen protection is a good example.

I find the search to be a bit confusing. I would putting "type" at the top would help. I thought I had to choose a brand first, as it was not immediately clear to me that the categories are independent. I would rather search for a black leather case than for a case made by i-nique.

Use A/B-testing to evaluate changes to the site.

Random ideas: become an affiliate of a company that makes customized cases. Enter the itunes affiliate program, add a badge with the iPad app of the day or something similair. Make a dedicated site if one the non-case products gets a lot of traffic, e.g. an ad for screen protection.

I'm intentionally a bit vague because you didn't name the site. You might want to post the URL to get more answers.

Edit: added some more concrete examples.
As far as I can tell, D-Wave's adiabatic quantum computer has never demonstrated polynomial-time factoring either. The result mentioned in ars technica (DOI link is down, and a scholar search didn't find it) might also invalidate the use of said computer for this purpose.
Bear in mind that people earning a lot on adSense don't usually talk about it much.

(I've been making a living off adSense for quite some years now).
What more information do you want? It's not really the content I'm worried about, it's the money. Should I go into drop shipping these cases? Should I optimize my affiliates? Should I concentrate more on banner ads?
So yes - the western consumer machine has not penetrated so well.

But that does not mean they are not on the map at all - if you saw any of the recent "Africa" season on BBC 4 in the uk it was clear that mobile phone usage is high, there are big cities (like Lagos) with loads going on, film industry, music industry.

It all seems a bit chaotic to my western eyes but its clearly vibrant and resourceful and there is a huge amount of drive. In the Lagos programs a lot of the people featured had the endless inventiveness and ability to rise to challenges we would all think was fantastic in an entrepreneur.

I suspect that Africa will emerge with its own technology ecosystem - not dissimilar to ours but with an African slant. I also suspect it has probably had enough of the west coming and telling it how and what to do.
Thanks - hadn't seen that one.
A quick tip just in case this inspires anyone to far. I highly recommend that you think long and hard before you run out and buy a thousand relays with the intentions of following in this guys foot steps ..

If still want a thousand relays, give me a bell.
a little less happy with Manning, who makes it clear my book is only available for download for the 5 days following purchase

You expect them to provide you with the ability to download the book any time you want, but you don't want them to ask you to pay a license fee. Sounds like you'd like the benefits of a license (someone else handles storing the media) without the tradeoff (someone else has control of the media). Doesn't seem fair to the publisher.
Wow. A lot of people seem to forget how much money almost $700 is to somebody who doesn't have the $700. The women probably didn't have the money, and really wasn't trying to scam the guy, she probably genuinely made a mistake.

Pretend for a second that this wasn't ebay.

I go to best buy and start looking at TVs. I find one that is pretty cool, will be great for playing wii fit on, can't wait to get it home, and I tell the sales-person that I'd like to buy it.

On the way to the register, I realize "Wait a second, I'm living check to check and rent is due tomorrow. I can't afford a freaking new TV!", so I look at the sales person and say "Oh, I...this is embarrassing, but I actually can't afford this television at all. I'm really sorry."

Would Best Buy be in the right here if they sent somebody up to me to tell me "Wow, that is a really cool TV you just bought! My daughter realllly wants that exact TV for her dorm room and you totally bought the last one! I'll buy it from you for $1000!"?

Absolutely not. In fact, there would probably be a lawsuit involved.

Was it a crappy thing to do to try and back out of an auction like that? Yes, absolutely, but it was an even worse thing to scam the woman out of money that she said she didn't have.

Bad moves all around, in my opinion.

Edit: wow, reading these reddit comments is really, really disheartening.

edit2: I'm not saying that what the women did was okay. She will probably be banned from ebay. This is fine, this is what should happen. Guys, we teach children that two wrongs don't make a right, don't we? Is there a reason we teach them this or do we just like the phrase because it rhymes?
I believe that FlightPrep has a valid business plan. They have patent in order to prevent commoditization (i.e., giving away things for free) of their market. So they sue all free providers and if there is somebody with real money (like Jeppesen) they understand they cannot go after them.

I think this something each copmany should do when entering a niche market which can be easily commoditized.
I really wanted to downvote you cause I thought your response was an intentional misunderstanding of the comment you were replying to, but then you go and write this gem:

[Conducting relationships on Facebook is] like trying to compose a story out of the messages written on greeting cards.

Insightful. Hilarious. Wow.
Well, I suspected it but in my opinion the public in general should be outraged by it. It's also a significant violation of the laws that prohibit the government from propagandizing the American people.
This guy ended up with brain damage most likely from the treatment. If that's part of the cure then I'm not sure it's worth it.
After seeing the demo, one can realize why nanoseconds makes the difference between what we call "real-time" photo sharing today and what is really the way it's supposed to be ... in the near future. Total gamechanger.
I have every right to complain about getting the crappy end of the stick when stuff like this happens in the same way you have the right to complain about a crummy contract with AT&T or your roofer.

You get to complain about AT&T and your roofer because you have a contract with them entitling you to a certain level of service in exchange for your money. Your only agreement with Facebook is Facebook's AUP / ToS / privacy policy, which gives you no such rights. If you don't think it's an equitable agreement, don't accept it!
iPads are great devices for the field force, especially pharma reps. Big pharma is ordering them like mad. Reps love them, far less clutter, always on, big enough to run a presentation on and capture a signature for a sample drop.

Cegedim, Veeva, ... iPad solutions are available and much sought after.

The old school tablet pc is dead in that vertical.
I think I'll read that question/answer every time I've got to choose between "Complex to explain but powerful" vs "Easy but trivial to explain". It's so hard sometime to take the "easy" route as a programmer who know you can build the powerful way.
I would hope selling "I ♥ SLACKWARE" merch which would be popular for irony's sake.
Well, USB2.0 maxes out at what, 480Mbps? So about half what a Gigabit ethernet would give you.

In practice, it probably depends on your GigE hardware - NIC, cable type, etc...
I've been looking for something like this for ages, thank you. Do you mind if I have /r/Fitness link to it?

Also, it seems it's going down a bit too frequently, have you thought of moving it to AppEngine?
Yeah, that's what I suspected - that's a huge deal to me.
when can we use this? this is twitter on steroids
“Consumers are buying the more ‘open’ handsets and thus signaling the demand for them.”

Are they? What is your source for that?
For what it's worth - Every time i click on an HN story I also open the comment page (in two new tabs - I use the fabulous Tree Style Tab firefox extension to stop that becoming as insane as it sounds).

That way after I read the story, even if I go away, the comment page is still open so I can upvote it when I am clearing up later. In that way I rarely if ever forget to upvote a story I liked.

I don't particularly like having my upvote solicited because it makes the thing seem too much like a popularity contest - the people who lobby end up getting more than the equally worthy ones that don't.
I don't know if they work like this, but can you guys buy up a few small dollar gift cards and then combine them onto a single bigger value card?
I think it's a natural consequence of the site's increasing popularity combined with pg's constraints on new submissions. In particular the new page only has 30 spots and it's very easy at peak submission times to fall off. Whereas it used to take an upvote or two to make the front page, it now takes anywhere between 4 and 7 upvotes before you hit lots of people.

Your options (as a submitter) are either improve the content or improve the submission. Sometimes the latter is easier than the former, especially when it's your own material you're submitting.
No, we don't pay the MPEG-LA (yet). The information they provide has given us reason to believe that we don't need a license at this point.
The internet is not a thing, it's long past time for people to stop thinking of it that way. It's a medium, like radio, television, or books.
How about charging a fee X but reducing it by Y for each consecutive month a person uploads a daily photo, to the point where, if anyone actually uploads 365 photos they get the use the service for free?

Charge $12, but refund $1 for each completed month.
I can tell you that the last 10 digits of Graham's number are ...2464195387, how large could it be?
Looks like Kevin Smith compiles his tweet monologues on his own blog: http://silentbobspeaks.com/?p=401
"... It's public data! You could scrape and index it now for free ..."

That is the most insightful thing I've read today.
At historious, this is a core feature (you don't have to pay to get it). Even for the free accounts, every single bookmark will be cached with the optional ability to be published for your reference (the URL never changes, so you can give it to people).
Element has a sad amount of bugs/inconsistencies, even though they're being fixed/improved all the time. Message formatting issues for example between mobile and desktop clients are things that really put me off using it.

I like the protocol, and I love the idea, but it's just nowhere near grandmother (or even mother) level of usability. And it's not nowhere near good enough for someone as anal as me. People in between might not get put off by all the issues though.
Perhaps housing shortages lead to greater inequality, and it is that which leads to lower aggregate wealth.

For example, It seems to me the more-equal nordic countries do quite well in comparison.
Acquisitions = Less Competition

Also, "grandma" is an annoying cliche/placeholder. No law says that young males understand any kind of app or sign-up process immediately.
To be fair, this is just how executable scripts work — it’s not a special yaml shebang, just a regular shebang for an executable that happens to take yaml files as it’s input. The underlying OS just invokes the command in the shebang and passes the file as the first parameter, exactly as it would if the shebang were for bash or python.
Shameful this is happening but I was curious to why are these laws so strict there? Was it because of why/when they were written? Maybe some info on how seriously the locals live by these laws? The article could have explored that regions' strictness more, it just repeats the title, over and over into a few paragraphs. Similar to news coverage of a fire.
Amazon doesn't have a username, it uses your email. Also, it doesn't give you a choice of "which amazon to sign up with", with 3 options.
I honestly wonder how many of the Pebble Time backers are people who initially got hyped up over the Apple Watch, then decided they didn't want to deal with a watch with only 18 hours battery life.
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen. Nice work innovating, Amazon!
Seems like they are damned if they do, damned if they don't. They attempted to make the Kinect sensor a core part of the Xbox One (including making it central in their advertising, etc) but eventually bowed to pressure to unbundle it in order to sell a $100-cheaper SKU.
I'm annoyed they haven't closed the PID loop to track how many oz of mouthwash I consume, or use, per month, so it could predict how often to ship me various sizes and quantities of mouthwash.

Also being individual item oriented every time inflation leaves its mark and bottles shrink in size, my subscription is cancelled and I need to make a new S+S for the "new and improved" one oz smaller bottle. And every time the mfgr decides to play games with 2-pack vs 3-pack of bottles, I gotta resubscribe again. Really annoying.

What I want from amazon is a web interface of "based on order history I seem to be using 412.345 oz of mint mouthwash per year and amazon predicts I have 20.001 oz on hand (click here to update quantity on hand) and to meet our guarantee of you having 2 weeks supply on hand at all time we're shipping you our current mint mouthwash best deal of two bottles in one box" or whatever.

I get a pretty big S+S box every month. I have not automated down to weekly purchases like toilet paper but inevitably it'll happen some day. I wonder if they'll ever have a standard reusable stackable shipping crate like peapod food containers. That must be cheaper than all this cardboard.
I think it's just to get their name on a few soundbites rather than actually believing what they say. It's harmless to call something the "new normal". Even if it proves to be temporary it's relatively easy to spin it so that you were correct anyway.
If I were being paid to influence a debate, especially being paid by the U.S. Government, the first thing I do is lots and lots of research. The easiest way to discredit someone is to point out technical ignorance in their argument. So I'd make my point technically sound on all points. I'd research the counter-argument so I have rebuttals to every knee-jerk response the amateurs on the internet will toss at me. I'd read other discussion threads and make note of writing styles that frequently engender agreement. After all, this is my job and I've got professional pride on the line.

And there are a lot of people on the job market who can do those things very well. It's something American schools have been teaching for decades. In my high school there was this thing called a forensics club. "What's forensics? Isn't that like crime stuff?" I asked. It was explained to me that they learn how to debate issues, like free speech on school grounds. "Well obviously we want free speech." "Actually", my friend says, "I'm going to be arguing against it." "You don't support free speech?" I ask. "I do. But I was assigned to the against side." I thought it sounded stupid. Now I get it. It was cognitive dissonance as a vocational lesson.

So it's the people who sound unusually well-informed that I most suspect of astroturfing. Except I assume they also practice how to make what they write not sound rehearsed.
"I secretly hate programming, debugging, programmers, git, the whole enterprise - just seems so stupid & futile."

Git seems like an evolutionary step tovards something more intuitive and efficient.
The story is remarkably similar to this Polish movie, based on a real story:

The photons are probably actually being converted into electric current, as a photodiode, photomultiplier, or solar panel would do.

Try yoga, go to an easy beginners class at a studio that seems bent on spirituality and not fitness, helps with pain and positivity, programming benefits are more discrete
Yes. In my last job, most people were self taught with no formal education, it was a real hustle to explain basic concepts. And every discussion didn’t really progress because everything had to be explained in detail because they simply didn’t understand the concept. This was exhausting and draining. Also there were an naive belief that everything on the internet is true.

At my current job, people people have a way better understanding of how things work and a better understanding on how to apply them. Discussions are much more simple and shorter. There’s a huge difference in how the work is done and how you do code reviews because they are much more spot on and not haphazard or random.
Do yall have any remote positions?
The problem with this approach is twofold:

a) At the margin, a few people doing this does _nothing_ to mess with big companies' data collection & analysis. But opting out also has the same problem, obviously, so at least it's not doing worse.

b) In the absence of sandbox / selective sharing features like other commenters have mentioned, or you going so far as to _only_ keep fake contacts in your phone, using this approach requires you to also share your actual contacts with the app, thus giving away PII of unconsenting third parties. Yes, I'd rather blame the app developers for collecting this data in the first place, but I'd still prefer not to give my contacts away whenever I can reasonably withhold them.
Bsd style globbing is handy for this sort of thing. Like in Perl:

use File::Glob qw/bsd_glob/;
my @list = bsd_glob('This is nested {{very,quite} deeply,deep}');
Another example is Gabe Newell, who has taken a big interest in AI, VR, and Brain-Computer-Interface technology as he gets older. It's a different approach though, because instead of trying to keep your body healthy, you just control a virtual body that will always have perfect health.
> BTC transfer fee is something like $20 now, more than the cost of a pizza, and the transaction might take like an hour to clear? Maybe it's fine if you don't mind overpaying, aren't too hungry, or you enjoy cold pizza.

Segwit transfer is currently at $0.003, and a transaction with enough fee processes instantly. It takes 6 confirmations for a guarantee (but that will settle over the next hour). Pizza deliveries get paid in cash through many extensions that provide BTC2CASH purchase.

I can bet you buying a pizza in Spain with Spanish currency using a US card will charge you a foreign exchange fee.
All your points are valid and I'm not saying China can't make a brand. But you're comparing Pepsi to Coke. Everybody knows which one is more desirable.
I have started to use Microsoft OneDrive along side Google Photos for two reasons.

1. OneDrive also backs up my photos on my Android device in original quality.

2. I have Google Takeout backup to OneDrive quarterly.
you can absolutely be denied entry for wearing a MAGA hat. businesses can have dress codes as broad or as specific as they want. must wear shoes and a shirt is pretty low bar. must have a collared shirt, no blue jeans, and no sneakers is also a common dress code. no hats, bandanas, or gang colors or MC colors are all common at bars/clubs/breastaurants.
> "Don't buy stupid nonsense."

That bit is doing a lot of work. Seeing 'bird's eye view' is useless because it has no real effect on behavior after the fact, the feedback loop is too long and disconnected. Also - Mint's software is itself bad and intermixed with the ads it's just hard to figure out what's going on.

How much do you spend on food? How much on groceries? A gift you forgot to plan?

YNAB let's you get a real intuitive understanding for all of this, you know explicitly where every dollar is going and you do it in real time per transaction.

It gives you a lot of power.

Do you need it? No. You've got the basics down with 401k max, monthly savings, Roth IRA, etc. That's awesome.

Could you benefit from it? Almost certainly yes. I'd bet if you used it seriously (even just the 30 day trial) you could trivially double the amount you're saving per month in liquid savings.

One reason I like it a lot is the exactness of it gives me complete confidence I could control my burn rate to any number necessary, good for FI.

It's marketed to people who need help getting out of debt, but it's also good for people with high savings rates and high income. It frees you to allocate large amounts of money to index funds, or stock market bets without worrying about how much you need in your account for auto-pay expenses.

Its yearly subscription cost is effectively negative.
