> I'm not sure I know anyone who doesn't struggle with something.

It's always a matter of degree. It's completely true that to be human, is to struggle. Life is a struggle. Most people get sad at times in their lives, many people get depressed too. Many people are disorganised. And very many people, more than ever, experience trouble focussing and concentrating at times.

But when that struggle becomes a defining and pervasive feature of your life, to the point that it's unshakable. Perhaps it affects your relationships. Maybe makes it difficult to hold down a job... That's where you start to fall under the diagnostic criteria for a long-term "condition" as opposed to just the common condition that we all share of simply being human.

And that's where workplace support of this kind may go from useful to necessary. From "makes my job easier" to "makes it possible for me to hold a job at all".

I think it's important to recognise the struggle that everyone has, as part of being human, but it's important not to overlook the significant additional struggle that people with a diagnosed condition or "neurodiversity" experience on top of this.
All textual protocols with legacy of IETF style design use CRLF, and that includes HTTP which heavily drunk from that legacy.

Personally I suspect it's because ARPA was a bit cheap on some things and thus they used typewriters instead of protocol analyzers ;)
> I must be one of the very few "hackerish" minded people that does not really get the appeal of tiling window managers

Are we very few, or just non vocal?

I maximize the windows I work on. When I need to see two things on a screen, my window manager's ability to place windows side by side using the mouse or keyboard shortcuts is more than enough. I usually disable compositing to make shadows disappear when I do this, they are distracting.

Kwin (like more window managers I think) can place windows side by side (left - right or top - bottom), or one window on each corner of the screen. I can't imagine needing to see more than 4 windows at the same time. Seeing three / four windows is already more than distracting enough for me. My brain is too small for that. They wouldn't hold enough information anyway since I zoom text quite a bit, so I can be far from my screen and watch it for long hours without tiring my eyes.

When I notice colleagues tiling their terminal sessions with Terminator I feel claustrophobic. Konsole offers this now, but I've been sticking with tabs so far.
Why would it even be an issue that they're making billions from the app store? They've clearly said many times "this year have helped developers earn x billions through the appstore". Then it's easy to calculate their cut. But making money is not illegal.

The app store is only a monopoly on iOS, not on phones or computers in general. I think it will be very hard to make that case.
F# runs on .Net Core, which in turn runs near perfectly on Linux (incl Alpine). The runtime is about 50MB these days, so coupled with alpine or a minimal ubuntu server, you can squeeze a lot out of .net. F# is slightly slower than C# in some ways but in most cases you won't notice it and it brings a lot more to the table. I honestly wish most C# devs would start using F# for everything by default except the GUI layer, which C# makes more sense. If you are doing purely api/backend stuff, F# can be sharp knife you are looking for on linux.
It’s damaging on a whole other level to have video of someone peeing on the president of the United States.

Maybe his core would say “that’s fake, but even if it’s real, then hey, what he’s into, he’s into - people can do weird stuff”. But actually seeing the video of someone peeing on the president of the United States is humiliating for the party and the country, and would (maybe?) be enough to have him sidelined.

They could argue “respect the office, not the person”, but the counter would quickly be “if a person doesn’t have enough respect to not be peed on by another human being, then maybe they shouldn’t hold the office”.

I mean - it would just be replayed over and over and the Streisand effect would take hold. Any pro-trump person would probably have to wade through replies with links of him being urinated on. Quickly jokes would come up about him taking crap, it’d be thrown into debates. Chants would be made… the little decal of the guy peeing on stuff would quickly be put over trump name or campaign stickers.
Here's a blog post where I explain my motivation for creating the program - https://raskie.com/post/practical-ai-autodetecting-nsfw. There are some hyperparameters to tune, but you're right, it's extremely flaky. Part of that might be down to my work (I personally wanted the app to be prudish enough to flag the Baywatch intro), but the off the shelf model I used for this, does produce some strange results. Kind of wanted to use this app as a convo piece to discuss AI with people who aren't entirely technical, or with technical people who wonder what AI can and can't do.
In all the software I've used, it is proportionally spaced. You're just used to thinking the old way. Trust me, the whole thing is a lot simpler if you just accept 12 equally spaced semitones, with 7 of them in play for any particular key.
Stern's radio show only airs three times a week so I think it could seamlessly transition to a podcast. Yes, Stern would lose some of his listeners who are accustomed to listening to his show in their vehicles through the radio feature, but I doubt he cares at all. He already gave up a large portion of his audience when he left terrestrial radio for satellite back in 2006.

Stern's large dedicated fan base could even grow over time if his content wasn’t behind a paywall, as it is now. Though, a podcast service could elect to sell the show as a subscription knowing his fans would pay for it.
You've certainly given me a lot to think/read about. The weights are 10kg, so that's about 22lb I think. Still, I will be buying more equipment when I can.

Where I am staying I don't have room for a bench, so I've been slightly limited in what I can do. Any suggestions for working around that?

I am also very interested in squats/building up my legs and have been trying them out and practicing the correct form the past few days.

Thank you for the links and advice.
GA also underreports because people block it. Might not be relevant for most sites but if your audience is tech-related don't expect it to be irrelevant.
No. For any string, you can manipulate that string into any other string, given a Turing machine or equivalent.
It's pretty common to fail someone out at that point. If you wanted to be charitable you could try to ask them questions as much like homework questions from university as possible. "Write out in [psuedo] code how you would add two numbers and display the result on the screen using system interrupts" or something. You may have to pay the ultimate price and be stuck working with the person after that, though.
I am no expert in this field, but I was always wondering, are there issues that could theoretically come up, due to bugs in a previous implementation of the bootstrapped language and leave no way to resolve them?

So specifically, while the language is not bootstrapped, the developers work in a probably 100% tested and working language to implement theirs. Suppose they leave some bugs in the first implementation of their language, and they bootstrap it using their buggy first implementation. Could some of these bugs later be impossible to correct? Like they are on such a low level of the language that even the language constructs that would be needed to correct them are buggy, so they can't do it?
Fewer founders means fewer people with expenses that the business needs to support (even if those expenses are the bare minimum: food, shelter, etc).

Of course, I think what that assumes is that one person could launch a product as quickly as a team. It's easy to imagine a product being complex enough that a team could launch it before a solo founder would.

But ignoring that.. it's clearly faster/easier to build a business to support a single person than multiple people.
I used to think there was an idiomatic way to write code in a given language, that following conventions and community guidelines was a good thing, that languages had a natural flow to them and writing against the flow was a bad thing. These days I focus on solving problems. Idioms, conventions, languages, etc. are all bullshit. Everything is subservient to solving a problem. Ember or Angular? Don't care. Ruby or Python? Don't care. C# or Java? Don't care. Haskell or F#? Don't care. Statically typed or dynamically typed? Don't care. What is the problem we're solving? Now we're getting somewhere.
I'm okay with paying for tax services as well, I'm not okay with the lies deceit and technological restrictions to prevent people who would benefit from free tax filing from accessing it.
When people say it's deflationary, they mean "in the long run". Bitcoin has a fixed, predetermined inflation schedule which approaches zero over time. So, considering the inflation schedule alone, it's "eventually" deflationary.

When you start to account for other things like lost and unrecoverable coins, it becomes severely deflationary and much sooner. Things like grandpa taking his encrypted wallet to the grave or in the case of bitcoin BTC, small coins that can't be moved because the fee is higher than the coin's value.

At the time of writing this, coins worth less than ~ $6.15 (USD) aren't able to be spent*. That means if you bought a $4 coffee with BTC and paid with a tenner (a coin [input] worth $10) , you'd lose the change. It would remain unspendable until the network starts unclogging.

* By "arent able to be spent" I mean, reasonable fee estimations for getting the transaction into a block within an amount of time that you can be sure the transaction won't get dropped from the mempool. I used https://bitcoiner.live to estimate the fee which was the most generous of the three I looked at.
“Always” as in when statements like that starting appearing what, 50 years ago?

So... not always.
The main feed has infinite scroll on the main feed (I am not especially a fan of that). When you click a link it is a popup over the top of the infinite scroll page. Close the popup and you are at the same position in the infinite scroll list. I didn't like the new design at first, but after using it for a bit it's not that much difference. The low quality of posts combined with heavy handed moderation is far more of a problem for Reddit than the UX.
I recall once, there's at least a prototype visual studio plugin which would copy code examples straight from the internet.

I would love a bet it list of common use case templates which can just pop up when I use visual studio.

Or maybe a sort of snippet box to drag and drop in my code. For example reading and writing a file in C sharp isn't something I exactly know off the top of my head.
It's the same guy from this video [1].

> 7% of Americans Subscribe to Netflix...

I subscribe to Netflix (streaming only, obviously), am not American and not located in America; they do check the IP but not as aggressively as Hulu, so if you use a proxy they don't seem to mind.

I wonder how many of us there are?
Damn - sorting now
Thanks Scott. I'll get a port over to Brown Shoes as soon as it's ready. ;)

It's written using Ruby On Rails 2.X. The exercises are written in C. I also have an exercise recommendation server I wrote in Clojure.

If a co-founder is a software developer, I'd like someone with experience writing a web app front to back. Maybe someone that specializes in something I'm not too familiar with. I noticed you're into systems programming, I'd love to work with someone with that kind of experience!

As far as qualities go, I'd like someone who can work remotely and get shit done. Someone that will communicate immediately how they feel about the project. For example, if they didn't want to be a part of it anymore, they would just come out and tell me and not just disappear.

I am currently living in Midland, TX. I'll be moving to El Paso, TX soon. Nearest tech city is Austin, TX. I drive there occasionally for meet ups. As soon as my wife finishes school, we're off to California.
Why is cheap gas a good thing? Cars are far less safe than the alternatives, and also generally speaking result in less exercise. So on two different fronts, you have overall more death and injury resulting to society from cheap gas, while more expensive gas pushes people on to safer transit like trains, and encourages people to walk improving overall health. Minimizing time people spend driving in cars is a good thing.
at 19 this young man is already doing big. I havnt tried greplin yet but I think it has a very bright future
This entry in their FAQ after the April 21st outage brought a chuckle-

Where is DotCloud hosted?

DotCloud runs on Amazon EC2. More specifically, we run on the us-east-1 region, across multiple availability zones.
My wife and I lived off $2.80AUD a day while she was finishing her last year of Uni.
It was really rough and Lucy end up developing iron deficiencies.
Thanks. I'll keep this in mind the next time we have a pricing/product positioning review.
As cool as that would be, it would also take away from the community aspect of this place.

One of those useless article which talks about something seeing it in just one event. NASSCOM? what is it?
I disagree both that his post is primarily political in nature and that it has no content. It makes good points that a rare and difficult to find senior engineer for a tech company would make less than a run of the mill junior manager with a mediocre degree from a no-name school. Perhaps this has something to do with the alleged difficulty in finding talent (which oddly has never affected my firm, only firms unwilling to pay market rate it seems or those located in strange places such as anywhere in flyover country.) The topic of the thread is executive pay at google so why should comments responding directly to that theme be censored?
That sounds reasonable. I wasn't trying to dismiss the effects of lectins en mass, but rather provide a reasoning to the parent that perhaps it's worth linking to actual research on the topic.

I actually have to tip my hat to you, after a couple of books and some google tinkering, the article you linked to is by far the most comprehensive scientific look at the topic that I've found.
Here you go...

Economists agree: Legislation Reid led to passage prevented economic collapse

Excerpts:

Krugman: Government intervention helped avert "second Great Depression." In his August 9, 2009, New York Times column, Nobel laureate Paul Krugman wrote that governmental actions kept the U.S. from going into "a second Great Depression"

...

Blinder and Zandi: Policies "probably averted what could have been called Great Depression 2.0." In July, former Federal Reserve vice chairman Alan Blinder and Moody's Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi issued a report citing analytic models to demonstrate that the "multifaceted and bipartisan" response to the financial crisis, including the Troubled Asset Relief Program and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act - both of which passed the Senate under Reid's leadership -- had a "huge" effect on real GDP, jobs, and inflation, and "probably averted what could have been called Great Depression 2.0"

...

U.S. Chamber president: Stimulus needed because "we thought we were days away from a global recession."

...

AEI's Malkin: Policy response "averted" global depression. From a January outlook report by the American Enterprise Institute's John H. Malkin

...

Nowakowski: Policies have "averted depression." In a September 13 column, David Nowakowski, director of credit strategy at Roubini Global Economics, wrote that the Federal Reserve's fiscal policies, "along with the fiscal stimulus," have "averted depression, reversed a short bout of deflation, and helped unemployment from reaching 1930's levels."

...

Romer: Policies made difference between recovery and "second Great Depression." In her September 1 farewell speech, Christina Romer, outgoing chairman of President Obama's Council of Economic Advisers, praised the stimulus package and the Obama administration's use of TARP funds and said: "I am proud of the recovery actions we have taken. I believe they have made the difference between a second Great Depression and a slow but genuine recovery.

I don't think the government should have sat back and done nothing but the bailouts were not the right solution. I would have much preferred that they assisted in managing the bankruptcies than preventing/delaying them by throwing money at them. They should be breaking up all those mega-corps like Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, and AIG, instead the same companies that got us into this mess are still around and as big as ever.
I do agree that the article has other things to say as well. It's not a bad article. But I'm pretty sure that the second quote is supposed to mean that network effects cause larger online services to be more convenient for users. I don't agree with that in general. It's true only in some specific cases where integration of several services makes things more seamless. Your quote doesn't give a reason _why_ monopolies develop. It just states _that_ they do. Also, there is nothing about how they can unravel pretty quickly.
I just tried this with a (very superficial) test case[1] at 189KB and the editor seemed fine, both for editing source and generating previews. I even used the editor to double the file's length, saved, and reopened without problems.

I had no problems with pressing F1.
As much as I agree with your first sentence, I find your second offensive with the use of "sheeple." It's a tired perjorative that makes you look like you belong on some tinfoil covered forum.
I'm not sure that's true at all. A lot of us older developers look at the tools we used in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, and we can't help but notice how much better they are, even today, than many of the most-hyped tools these days.

I feel sorry for many of the younger developers today who only know of JavaScript, PHP, NoSQL and web development. They don't know what they're missing out on, nor do they truly know how inferior their tools are.

And when it comes to getting serious work done, we still use C, C++ and Fortran today. Yes, they've advanced in many ways over time, but I think they just go to show how much better many technologies were in years past. Even modern tools just can't compete with them.
Unfortunately, that hasn't worked out so well, has it?
I've never heard of this behavior, nor has it happened to me.

It sounds like you've triggered something in Microsoft's automated anti-intrusion system, and it's suspicious of either your behavior or all of your account's activity.

Sometimes customer service can remove these flags (I know American Express can, at least). It may be worth asking them to do that.
It's possible that anything Tesla introduces will be controversial because Musk and the company have created so much controversy, and that's what resulted in the press.

It's also possible the design was partly responsible, but I think even a boring-looking vehicle would've gotten just as much coverage.

I saw tons of stories about Rivian and its trucks, so I think people are hungry for a super-powerful electric truck.
Safes are rated in time to breach. They can all be breached. Revealing a duress code will not achieve anything unless the attacker is running your code (why would they), and if they're not, it will produce insufficient quantities of meaningful plaintext, leading to... more torture.

Repeat after me: cryptography cannot be the rubber hose.
It's a great example. This is the very reason I have scaled back the amount of time I rock climb as I've gotten older -- not because any individual outing is dangerous, but there's an element of Russian roulette wherein the mere act of doing it more often dramatically changes the risk.
Which is in line with Steam, GoG, Xbox, Playstation, Switch, etc

Some basic googling shows physical retailers also have a 15-20% margin on software sales.

Why is iOS somehow unique?
Great question! It does and it doesn't - we can guide you with either type, but that's something that you (or your personal trainer) might better be able to dial in offline.

On our site, you'll be able to see your full 3D skeleton recording and do more investigation into your form - slow mo, frame by frame, and all that detail-oriented stuff.
The words aren't difficult. The problem is that the material is at its heart insubstantial - this is a criticism of a critique, after all - and is beefed up with allusions to abstract concepts of dubious relevance. It attacks theoretical representations of the subject matter rather than its subject itself, critiquing constructions that are the product of criticism itself, asymptotically approaching a vapid onanism.
omg - murder really?
> There are many people that take the time to research

Not directed at you but "research" and internet topics. I think that term has been ruined for me. Lotta folk's "research" is they saw a youtube video the told them what they wanted to believe .. .or they even sought it out.

Really hard to know what anyone means by that anymore.

And honestly even I don't research much, most research I last did was looking for a new dishwasher... and that wasn't a lot.
If the unvaccinated can stay home, so can the worker.
This is the Adolf Eichmann defense. Trains are just tools, and he was making them run on time.

Any infrastructure has a purpose. It’s fair to ask why Bitcoin exists and whose project it is.
Apple never played a significant role in any project since their install base was just too small.

Apple is a company with a clear focus. They didn’t even support MMS in the first iPhone. Rightly so.
It's been awhile since I've had a Diff EQ class, but isn't the harmonic motion one an ODE?
There's a long tradition of elites working to reduce the level of education received by the populace, in part exactly because it prevents them from determining what's true.
Maybe look at Pat Flynn's blog and podcast. He has a lot of info about monetizing.
This is not so different from recognizing images in their fourier frequency domain. The frequency features and their origins in the spatial domain can be made very unintuitive.

But I'm not clear how important this phenomenon really is to the practice of CV, since 1) 'spoofed' images are highly specific to each DNN being used, and 2) a trivial reality check of the image can always 'out' examples like these.
