Obama and the atheist CIA wake each day and ask, "How can I fuck God, today?
We'll make nuns perform abortions. We make homos dance naked in Russian
churches in front of old ladies. Isn't that hilarious? We'll make a complete
mockery of marriage because, after all, niggers don't have fathers and that's
not fair. Michelle wants no cupcakes for birthdays because of bastards. We'll
make God hated -- for pedophiles and crazy insane sand-niggers. We'll drink
fetus tomato soup with the queen and celebrate the end of birth. Having
children is pedophillic. We'll slap a condom in ever African's bowl of cereal
and make the 5 year old African girls learn how to put on a condom. We'll make
churchs no longer tax exempt. <Giggle> We'll make all the conservative sons
into liberal atheist homos. <Giggle> Will throw open the border and bring in
Mexicans ruining race in American... doing this treason just for democratic
votes. USA will be a slum like Mexico with niggers and Mexicans and no white
people." That's what you want, right Obama? Obama has a revelation, "Yikes!
What if there were no white people! Holy shit! I love white people, come back!
How come white people don't have kids? Oh yeah, we made the white people covet
the wealth of the dirty rich."

Yo man. Sorry to hear about your situation. I have been previously prescribed a high dose of Adderall. For the first 3 -4 months it was incredible.

Slowly, but surely, however, it started having negative side effects, namely anxiety and paranoia. My symptoms and resulting behaviors weren't as extreme as yours, but I could definitely feel the crazies coming on sometimes. That being said, don't listen to the people on here telling you that you are schizophrenic.

After getting a 2nd and 3rd opinion from other doctors, and reading some stuff on Pubmed, I realized that my dose was very high. I resolved to just ditch the Adderall and never return to my psychiatrist.

I'd be happy to talk more about this with you if you want. I am a 23-year-old male software engineer and have spent a lot of time trying to find healthy/ier alternatives to adderall. Drop me a line at [redacted].
I like this version: https://github.com/alex/what-happens-when

It doesn't address the 'progressive layers' issue, but it _does_ include a TOC.

I have been asked this question before, and my answer was definitely biased towards the networking parts (DNS, TCP/IP, HTTP/S, certificates ...), and I provided absolutely no detail about keyboard/mouse/monitor I/O, parsing or rendering.
Interesting to see how many of those links now are dead, point to spam sites or something completely different.
I wasn't saying the two were exclusive, merely that the use of the word "feels" conflates the two. "This (design|note|architecture decision|etc.) 'feels' right" could be taking from both column a and b (how much of each column would surely be dependent on the subject matter).
Hiya!

Though I don't know your company, I do believe it is viable for the 3 founders to do YC with the rest of your team remote. Even in our batch, I can think of at least one company that was in a similar situation to what you're describing, and they got a lot out of YC.

It is still valuable even if the entire team isn't able to be in California. It comes down to the founders and the team committing to regular and open communication, making sure that the founders and team stay in touch and that the founders are able to share as much of what they are learning as possible with the team. Keep in mind, there are many companies that operate entirely remotely--Stack Overflow and Automattic, to name a couple. All it takes for your company to succeed working remotely is to build a good remote culture.[1] Your company, and therefore you and the rest of your team, will still get value out of YC from everything the founders will learn and can share with you, as well as from the YC network, mentoring, community, and branding that will stay with the company for the rest of its existence.

We were lucky that we were able to be able to bring our whole team--but that doesn't mean it's a prerequisite. Many companies can't bring their whole teams, for all kinds of different but valid reasons.

> One wrong does not make another wrong right.

True but the two neutralize each other when thinking in terms of a running tally of gender-specific offensive terminology.

> used as an offhand comment usually because it is considered less offensive than other words with the same meaning

the fact that it's considered less offensive simply illustrates a bias towards the acceptance of gender-specific negative remarks or "putdowns" when they're directed away from the feminine and towards the masculine. This goes to my point that actually women do throw a lot of these remarks around but we've just learned to tune them out. If a man makes a 'putdown' remark towards a young lady in class which references the female reproductive anatomy then he's on shaky ground and theoretically could have to worry about a lawsuit, but not the other way around.

> 4. Imagine your daughter or mother being called an "emo bitch" because they reacted angrily to an insult. Would you tell her "well at least they didn't explicitly insult your genitalia?"

I don't know a ton about the word "emo" but I assume it means "overly emotional" and the word "bitch" is a gender-specific word which insinuates that she's not attractive. While I'm sure we both agree that such a rude and insulting phrase is a terrible thing to say to anyone it's still only aimed at the individual.

On the other hand when you use a phallus reference as an implied negative connotation then you've just made a sexist remark because it denigrates an entire gender.

If I had to choose one or the other I'd rather my mother or daughter be exposed to rudeness or insult before obvious yet normalized sexist remarks.
Looks like Diesel engines have a thermal efficiency of up to 51.7% [1] (with a theoretical maximum of 56% [2], and Toyota claiming a practical 38% [3]) and Gasoline engines ~25%. Based on that, a Diesel powered phone would last 3.8-5.6 days.

Hardware hasn't really decreased that much not if you count what services you want to run these days on it compared to 10-20-30 years ago.

If you just run a simple web-application sure it's much much cheaper today than it was in 2000, but as technology evolved that isn't enough for big business today, if you look at companies that still build their own servers then unless they have unlimited space the servers these days tend to be much more expensive and exotic hardware is more and more common (it's not that uncommon to see SQL/BI servers with quite expensive compute/GPU's these days, 5 years ago it was all those "IOPS accelerators" or "specialized" SSD's, in 5 years it will be something else).

As far as looking at the price of S3 or EC2 in 20 years that's completely irrelevant because those services for the most part will be irrelevant in 20 years, yes their might have their own counterparts but it's not like you will still use the same services, just look at how drastically the way you build and deploy applications has changed in 10 years.
How dare you try to grieve in your own way.
Stoicism is much more self focused than Christianity. Christianity has the added dissociative effect of the source of your morals not being you, and lets one achieve a form of "humility" through being able to move thoughts judgement and morals that can't be reconciled over to the abstraction of an all-knowing other. Stoicism is much more fatalistic in that sense - whatever happens happens, rather than whatever happens is known and "matters" in the scheme of things because of God.

"Focused on me" culture is not inherently wrong for communities or cultures at at all, but when you compare straight hedonism to "selfless" christianity then its understandable to have some backlash on "me" culture. "Me focus" can also mean basically trying to achieve what is in the Serenity Prayer (written in the 1800s by a Christian theologian) -

"[God] grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference"
Yes, and that's widely been regarded as a mistake.

So much here in this conversation.

First, this reminds me of Obama's hourlong conversation with the podcaster Marc Maron (this past June 22) in which he visited Marc's garage in a very ordinary neighborhood in LA for the podcast. During the podcast, which is 100% worth listening to if you are interested in the president, he touched on the theme of reaching around the media, which apply a filter that really forces much political dialogue into a rut. This is also how he opens this conversation.

Another theme that interests me is Obama's growing confidence, born out of wiping the competition out in two consecutive elections, and weathering a lot of political storms with, really, very little in the way of huge mistakes. I know it's possible to critique his presidency, but, using the last few presidents as a yardstick -- fewer self-inflicted wounds.

Finally, Obama's return to the theme of "homespun values." I find it quite charming, while also being, honestly, somewhat puzzled. This is a quite sophisticated intellect (e.g., editor of Harvard Law Review, etc., etc.) to be appealing to some sort of "well-understood" system of values.

I do. Beside my reddit account and my online gaming community I contribute to, I have no time for Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.

But I guess reddit is the superior alternative (at least for me). I find that the Facebook posts and Instragram stuff is always full of people trying to show off their lives all the time.
yes, don't get me wrong. It looks beautiful on desktop and I wished everybody could have great internet speed. But I know from professional experiences that e.g. people from South Africa will hate your pages (1-2Mbit is good DSL there). I know I only complain... but I also see bad styling. Most people nowadays browse with mobile and your fonts are too small and unreadable there (I also know there is no easy solution together with the pictures alignment).
Just saying... for people on desktop on good internet speed +1 but definitely not a solution which everybody should copy (even not photographers, there is a reason why thumbnail galleries exist, a good example is Google Photos)
Probably not, and that's not his reasoning anyway.

I think you're painting too bleak a picture. A balance is needed between chasing the shiny and ignoring the world's movements.

Whether you're a developer, a medical practitioner, a lawyer, an accountant, in real estate, a mechanic, a civil engineer, a teacher, a politician, whatever you have... to be a good professional, you need to keep up-to-date. This doesn't mean latching onto the bleeding edge, but it does mean learning things and occasionally trying new tools or methods.

Thresholds of Violence: How School Shootings Spread
Great article. This is the only way I can think about security. It leads to only one conclusion. Nothing connected to a network is secure, therefore nothing connected to a network is private. That's kind of sad actually, but it's the maximum claim I can make about the security of any system, including ones I manage and work on every day. If you need guaranteed security and privacy, the only thing to do is to keep things offline. Otherwise, it's just a matter of degree of ease of access to what is essentially public information.

The only danger to me taking my airplane across the Atlantic is to me.

Depends on where and how high over the Atlantic you want to do it. If you pick a spot on the North Atlantic tracks, then other people's safety is at risk (and if you fly one of those tracks without coordinating it with ATC, you're going to have a bad time when you land).

"100 times lighter than Styrofoam." What? “thickness 1,000 times thinner than a human hair.” Huh?

I sense an alternation between pop and technical language, i.e. "lighter" and "denser," and “thickness and “thinner.”

It looks like we are looking at a composite material here. Scales, densities, and thermodynamics typical to the nano world do not easily apply to the STP world where 25C and 1Bar reign king.

Since the microcosm denizen is a tube, what are median wall thicknesses and tube diameters?

Did the redacter here also work for Apple to measure their new products as “thin?” If so, they may qualify to be an Apple genius.

Even if you are comfortable experimenting with the entire Earth's biosphere, global warming is only one aspect of increased carbon emissions. As that climate engineering page points out:

Interesting. I guess when I asked this question, I was thinking about it from the startup's point of view.

(I'd rather disable the fan in software so I could turn it on as needed but have not gotten that to work.)
Ahh, guilty. Sorry about polluting your dataset! My first reaction to seeing this tool was "Ohh, I wonder what it thinks about cursewords". I can't imagine that is a rare thought.
Late to the party, but...

The problem with argument's like Bruenig's is that they double as fully-general counterarguments against the entire concept of a price system, and in favor of strict price controls. You could make his exact points against e.g. allowing some foods to be priced more than others, with the same points about "the poor value the food more, it would go to a random population rather than just the rich", etc.

There is too much wrong with that argument to point to any one thing, but suffice to say, even the most pro-poor nations reject it.

That's why every sane nutrition policy is more like "tax people, give the poor money to buy food" rather than "all food [appropriately quantified and defined] should be cheap enough for the poor to subsist on, and if you want to sell any food at all, you must sell it at that rate".
It's a solve problem.

well four new reactors are being built in the South East, two in South Carolina and two in Georgia. They are scheduled to be online in 2018 and 2019 adding about 1200mw per reactor.

Far from dead they do however show that we aren't even trying to be at the forefront of the technology anymore. While the AP1000 reactors are more modern they are still old school in many senses.

We still need a good solid base power source, renewable sources tend to be highly weather dependent and cover a large area to generate power. It is not reasonable to claim we can store it through batteries to replace the power currently provided by coal, gas, and nuclear. Unless some breakthrough storage means comes out its not going to happen

A much simpler tax system would be to tax everyone like hedge fund fees. You pay 2% tax on all assets and 20% on profits those assets generate. Regardless of asset type (if it is worth money and can be traded, it gets taxed). Ditch everything else (especially regressive taxes like VATs) and keep a progressive income tax. This 'everyone' is individuals because someone, somewhere owns the assets.

Note that those are the pre-2008 hedge fund fees and the fees are presently less than that.
