Ehhh... That doesn't sound right. It's more that the perception is someone is stuck up and prudish if they don't drink.

A quarter of a down payment for a condo came from not drinking over 2 years. And he lost 75 pounds. He must had been one heavy heavy drinker to be wasting so much calories and money on it!!
Good for him to quit on it.
It's just frustrations about things that keep me up, even if they are sort of latent, suppressed frustrations which I've deferred thinking about.

I think most of us have a lot of frustrations about various things, so to me that's the first thing I would look at regarding sleep issues. The guy getting exactly what he wants sleeps well.

More specifically, I'll have trouble falling asleep and then start thinking about what's not good in my life, and I'll often sit up then and there, crack open my laptop, and take some action to at least be closer to making the thing better (writing an email to get the ball rolling, or just reflecting about ways to interpret whatever the issue). I then usually feel more satisfied and can sleep, though I may lose an hour or two doing this.

My point is take a hard look at what isn't going as well in your life as you'd hope.
Not only Java, but also Julia, which is easier to learn and faster than e.g. Python or MATLAB (vide MIT Courses).
I understand that Germany is no small country (even if much smaller than the United States) and thus does not thereby have one single national mood.

However what is the general sentiment of the peoples there about where the German republic as a monolithic entity is headed, given the recent developments?

Are people generally optimistic or are there significant pockets of dissenting populaces who heavily disagree with the choices Chancellor Merkel has made, in recent times?

I wholeheartedly side with the author, in terms of alcohol consumption. I generally regret more than a glass of wine or 2, if for nothing else than that horrible stupid feeling that I likely did something I will regret. I get guilt hangovers...

but grass, man, that's what makes tiny niggledy piggledy details of an API interesting. That's what makes me take "one more crack at it" when I'm tired and shit's not working.

Coffee is merely a poop-inducer. Productivity in my life is related to grass consumption. I quit about 4 times in my life and even tried a sober winter in the arctic circle.
Least productive most self-indulgent moping time of my life, that last 10 month experiment.
What I did was cutout tobacco 100%. Now I feel great. I can run up hills, smoke a pipe, cough my lungs out, and I'm cleaner for having smoked it!
see, cannabis is an expectorant (by itself, NOT adulterated with even one flake of tobacco, which is a cough suppressant) so it self cleans, never mind that any resinous deposits contain potent anti-cancral agents...

anyway- in my book, cannabis is in the healthy category and is consumed during all waking moments and generally my sleep life is better than my wifes, who doesn't smoke cannabis.

I would lump diet and exercise in with consumed drugs in terms of the net effects upon the endocrine system and energy:

typical unhealthy eating style: jam it in poorly chewed, pour some acidic liquid in on top to help it "digest" even though we then complain of stomach acid and eat calcium (tums) after drinking yet another acidic liquid (coffee) and meanwhile wondering why sitting in a chair 20 hours a day plus such eating habits are leading to chronic constipation

contrast that with eating a healthy balanced diet with mostly fresh plant matter of some sort, stretching frequently, practicing deep stretching or yoga of some kind, frequent exercise involving sweating, consumption of copious amounts of good water...take the time to chew properly and eat small amounts of food slowly and then you will note greater absorbance of nutritional elements and more peace in the digestive tract.

you are a brain athlete. start acting like it.
I almost completely stopped to drink alcohol. The inital reason was the headache I get from it the day after. But especially the effect on my psychic wellbeing is tremendous. I experience much less anxiety and muss less depressive or aggresive moods. All in all I feel much more stable.

The price? Participating in nightlife is much less fun. I know a few people who are teetotal and can have fun with buzzed people. I can not. Is it worth it? Yes, for me it totally is. I do not miss drunken nightlife at all. There are enough alternatives to have fun and to sozialize with others.

>for the sake of the argument

That's begging the question. There's researchers writing a 18 page report about a 100 manyears of development and you stumble in here without really reading it, saying it's wrong on account of it not being right. Well, your circular logic leaves me unimpressed.

I think the uncertainty principle makes pretty clear, assuming for the sake of the argument that it is correct, that we can't observe matter without interfering. Ofc that's a matter of believe

The whole presumption of the article is that consciousness is related to matter. You are, if anything, changing the subject. You probably don't have a clue what consciousness is, no offense, I really don't. Sadly the quoted papers are not open access and I can't figure out sci-hub. Also, they are from a philosophical faculty, while I tend to the hard sciences.

Where would the inability to figure out conscioussness leave us, anyhow, do you just give up?
Neurotoxin for insects = terrible evidence of toxicity in humans. We go by evidence of toxicity in humans, and all evidence shows it isn't toxic in the doses people consume it. If you want to say we haven't discovered the secret terrible cancer causing agent in coffee yet, but just you wait... Well it's going to take a lot of evidence. There are lots of controlled studies saying it's pretty good for you.

I think what you're picking up on is a distrust by analogy. In the past we thought some things were safe, but they weren't (smoking etc). But the opposite of being ignorant about the effects of chemicals we ingest isn't to suddenly say everything is unsafe. It's to test everything. And we have tested caffeine, and it's safe.

You are missing a big point. Sure super rich can only utilize fraction of their wealth however rest of the wealth rarely gets utilized to increase productivity of the society. The majority of investments in their portfolios (as per Piketty's carefully collected data) are actually in non-productive activities such as real estate, hedge funds, HFT, derivatives, commodity manipulation and so on. These investments manipulates markets such as real estate to perpetually increase value of their investments without positive impact on society. In fact, from analysis of Piketty's data it was found that if wealthy people only invested in "productive" instruments then their wealth accumulation would dramatically deaccelerate. So the argument that wealthy provides most of their capital for economy to bloom is fairly misleading. They do provide this capital for some GDP growth but it's fairly small part of their investment portfolio. The major portion of the portfolio has singular goal of generating massive passive income perpetually for generations by activities such as artificially limiting supply side or ballooning demand side in markets such as real estate. There are no known social advantage of these kind of investments. Next time when you send that $3000 mortgage payment, put a note there: "wealth transfer for 1%" :).

Allow me to introduce myself. I am 47, and I haven't had alcohol since 2012.

Having fun is a state of mind and if you don't sit there being miserable it is easy.

What you have to do is to initiate talking to strangers, that just takes a bit of practice if it's not your normal behaviour.
It's interesting to see how defensive people get if anyone suggests not drinking isn't that big of a deal, even in this thread.
Ada has associative arrays as well. But it will also let you have normal old boring arrays with enums, chars and modular types as indexes.
Another difference is that we can evaluate how long a feature will take. The biggest category of bugs can't be evaluated because their origin is unknown, and by the time the developer has found the problem, they might as well solve it than push them in a planning.

It's not such a big deal unless you happen to be in the business of making politically relevant information available.

Helping a dictatorship shield itself from criticism and spread its propaganda is not quite the same as compliance with, say, food labelling rules.
> No European I've ever met self-identified, nor liked being called, a tribe of Europe

Certainly not a "tribe" of europe but as someone who changes country on a regular basis, which would not be possible if not for Europe's wonderful no-visa-needed travel policies, I enjoy being called (and calling myself) european rather than French or Greek or whatever. I care little for patriotism and what not - we're all sharing the planet.

Though in China it may cost you a fortune if you want to argue if it's legal.

Well, unless there are people associate normal images and child porn, like someone did to Winnie and Xi. But I don't think it's going to happen widely in the U.S. IMHO, if the Chinese government stop pushing so hard, there will be less cases like insulting their leader metaphorically.

Seems you are grasping at straws here.
Yes, although indentured servants were not quite the same as slaves (again, there was of course variance depending on time and place).

For instance, did the fugitive slave acts of colonial America cover white fugitive indentured servants? I'd presume no, although some other laws existed to cover them (I'm by no means an expert but some reading makes me think this.)

Racism must have been a significant factor in making the difference of slavery and servitude in the American colonies: actual slaves were of African descent, while indentured servants were European, and apprenticeship contracts covered young American-born people.

When we talk about slavery in Europe today, in realistic terms it is actually more resembling the indentured servitude contracts of America (debt bondage and enforced servitude) but illegal (if authorities find out, they work actively to confiscate any proceeds of such contracts from those who benefit). E.g. sex workers who are deceived to take some form of a debt bondage.

Where I see the word "slavery" used is however often about situations where employment officials assign some training or intern arrangements for people to get job-seekers allowance. It's hyperbolical, even if there might be something wrong with these arrangements.
> I can't think of anyone who participates in nightlife successfully who doesn't at least get a little buzzed when out.

This is a very strange and unqualified statement. I know a couple dozen very successful nightlife personalities/DJs/promoters who are sober... Not exactly sure what you mean by successful -- as in make it through the night? Cope with hanging out with zonked morons? Hook up with someone?

I'm not sober, personally, but I really admire people who manage to make the changes they need to make, particularly if they're involved in nightlife by necessity. It seems unusual if you go out a lot and don't know anyone by that description.
Oh its almost certainly a terrible idea (at least if done that drastically) if for no other reason that massive upheavals of the status quo tend to harm the poor the most. It is just yes an example of the sort of "fundamental" of our economy that's actually just the result of some rules we made ourselves, not something inherent in capitalism or free markets.

Less drastically you could make employee/consumer owned businesses dramatically more tax advantaged giving them an economic edge and then just seeing what happens. Might turn out awful but its certainly possible.

Thanks for the info about your mail. I'm using SPF and DKIM too, I don't see how DMARC would help deliverability so I haven't tried that yet. I've verified my domains (including the reverse name(s) of my server's IPs) with postmaster.google.com to no avail (and I'm not sending enough mail to get the actual tools enabled). Interesting that you think you could solve it that way, perhaps you're sending more mail, or perhaps M$/Google/AOL are interchanging info and it only helps when going through all of their tools, or perhaps you've sent enough mail that what actually helped was people marking mail as ham, or perhaps you're in a block that's tainted less. My strategy remains to try another IP block. I might also try disabling IPv6 (although IIRC it delivers to Google over IPv4?).

Perhaps 'nightlife' is just boring without drinking, which makes me wonder if it's worth at all if it's no fun without drinking. Perhaps it's just a way to moderate drinking, then?

Nightlife is when you are awake but the sun is down and all of the people around you don't mind. There is sometimes lots of alcohol, yes, but also music and conversation and hopefully a convivial atmosphere. I recommend it. No anesthesia necessary for most people.

> While it would be nice I just don't expect them to go out of their way to get people to switch because it's a lot of effort to orchestrate for minimal gains.

That's not quite true. They did switch me on a new contract automatically when my 2 year contract ended. And that new contract was priced 3x the normal rate, and it's a 1-month contract they renew every month until I cancel.

So it's not 'a lot of effort', they did switch my contract, but instead of switching to a normal one they switched me to a 3x overpriced one at a rate they don't actually offer to customers on their website.

As for the gains, well that's the whole point of my post, the gains on me were huge: they're making money by silently switching me to a ridiculously overpriced contract on the basis of a tiny-letter clause in a contract of a few years back. About a third of the money they extracted from me so far is for non-service, money they'd only make when the customer is lazy/ignorant enough to not spot the exploitation. That's the definition of 'gotcha pricing', isn't it?

As for the switching part... That's true for 2 year contracts. I hate being called up for that, because I'm just locking myself in to another 2 years. I'd rather sit this one out, and then get a great deal myself on the next one. But in this case it didn't apply because they renewed me for an indefinite 1-month contract at 3x their own market rate, they could've just as easily either 1) automatically and silently renewed at their NORMAL prices they actually charge in their shop for a 1 month contract, I wouldn't even be involved in that and it'd be a fair deal or 2) at least call me or email (didn't receive even a text to my phone) to inform me they RAISED my fees even though they reduced their offering to me! without necessarily pitching any new contract, merely informing me would've been nice.

I mean, to give you a sense of the deal they got me on silently (without a single notification) vs the normal market rates in their store right now: They have an offer in their store that costs 30% less than what I pay now. That offer gives me 50% more minutes and 400% more megabytes than what I have right now, on a 4G connection instead of 3G right now, with a free 1 year old model of an iPhone (5S) included, vs no phone part of the contract I have right now.

And they never even informed me of this bs, it's textbook gotcha pricing. I'm not saying T-Mobile is a crappy company, just that in my anecdotal case, they screwed over a customer with a shitty clause in their contract to take advantage of the fact customers tend not to review a services' fees a few years into a contract. There are fair and practical alternatives to that, but they chose gotcha pricing instead. I don't think you can see it any other way.

> But seriously, call t mobile and ask if there's anything hey can do

Yeah as I said already contacted them, they're getting back to me.

I think the issue is that new players start with a ladder score of 1600, which is WAY too high. As a newcomer (me), it is frustrating because I'll probably lose dozens of games until I finally meet low-ranked newbies that haven't internalised the whole Fast Castle choreography down to the last shortcut.
And for players who deserve their score of 1600, it must be equally frustrating to have me on their team and then drag their score down :(
