The neighborhood around Kennedy Jr High School and Monta Vista High School. Many houses over the past decade became mini-mansions for awhile, but the recent trend seems to be ignoring basic house maintenance.

I didn't mean to imply there were lots of houses like this, but even two houses kept up poorly on a single street in this area is a relatively new thing.

I think, what I said is the same as what you said, just with some more maths.

> you can't conclude A causes B

right, this is what I referred to as "=>"

> plus an explanatory theory of the causation, plus evidence

yes, this all works together to build up the "how much smaller". An explanatory theory basically allows you to make predictions and run tests to collect more data to pump into the application of Bayes' theorem as used by that proof, improving your confidence of the difference between P(a|c) and P(a).
So, I'm getting the sense this is related to Glushkov's work on pricing right? My understanding, please correct me if I am wrong, was to try and track all items and use computer systems to optimize production and pricing. Was that integral to the network he envisioned? Do you touch much on the various economic debates in the Soviet Academy at the time on how to run a non-market system, like Kantorovich's ideas?
Does this seem like someone reading too much into the opinion? Maybe it could be used this way, but it could just as easy fail judicial review. There is some precedent of course (simply carrying lockpicks can be a crime), but I wouldn't be surprised if a LEO attempting to interpret this ruling this way would be slapped down by the courts.

I have worked remotely for 4 years. I posted this on another thread but it seems relevant here:

Start by creating a remote-first culture. Everyone should think "remote" first. Thus it should never matter if a local employee is working from home, the HQ, from the other side of the world. Make all work processes remote friendly. That should be step zero when considering hiring a remote person regardless of the reason. The goal should be to avoid a two-tiered culture. Some differences will always be there but if the spirit of the remote-friendly culture is there integration is pretty fluid.
Thus (near) all communication happens in Slack/Hipchat/etc. Group meetings, when including remote people, happen in video conf / Hangouts. Shared Google docs to collaborate on. Have in-person meetups 2-4 x a year for beneficial face-time and for people to get to know each other better on a personal level. When a new person is hired, have them do 20 min 1-on-1's with all team members to get to know each other and their job role. Have monthly video conf/hangouts on non-work technical topics where people rotate presenting.
The biggest element is the decision to be a fully remote team. Which honestly is a major retention benefit as well. Why should local employees not enjoy the same flexibility to work as needed remotely?
I agree. World needs new developers that has a great imagination for the new products...
What are the conditions that using HAProxy is preferable over using ELB or in conjunction with ?
Driverless cars will happen at the same time for everyone. Uber's competitors will get them at the same time they do. It will not amount to a long-term or even short-term advantage.
Well of course they did.

That show had them losing a POUND PER DAY - that's insane.

You'll never be able to maintain that kind of metabolism and calorie burn, it would be a full time job and then some.

I spent the last year losing a pound per week and that was challenging enough.

I still can't touch more than 2000 calories per day or I will gain weight and I run every morning.
This article is alarmingly sloppy, even without getting into questions of core accuracy.

Statements like "it is important to withdraw slowly from these drugs, sometimes over a period of a year or more" paints with an unconscionably broad brush. The drawdown period for antidepressants is completely dependent on the actual drug, and some (like bupropion) have no withdrawal symptoms at all.

Similarly, the claim that antidepressants cause people to lose their fear of death treats an open question like settled science. The antidepressant-suicide correlation is complicated and ill-understood - failing to even mention that there are other theories (e.g. antidepressants treat low energy faster than low mood, which enables but doesn't cause suicides) is downright dishonest.

It's worth learning about SSRIs if they're relevant to your life, but this piece skips over open questions and conflates nearly-unrelated drugs to the point where it's essentially useless.
> At the extreme, these things can hold a lot of people without too much land:

They can hold a lot of people without too much land, but they don't reduce the land requirements for transporting goods and supplies to and waste products away from those people.

Sure, you can hold a lot more people in San Francisco if you fill the city with high-rises, but that's not going to, e.g., suddenly give the city a greater supply of water to support that population, or a greater ability to handle the solid waste produced by that population.

Yes but still better than orkut, I guess...
I'm more curious about the second question I raised. I've read stuff before saying x grams of protein can't be absorbed when consumed in one meal. I've heard differing claims, some saying it's a myth, but I would imagine it's possible.
The French are known for doing that. I'm sure most militaries do in some way

It was 3 years in my case, and they were only fixed because the house was finally foreclosed and sold to someone else. Critters had definitely moved in, and there was lots of water damage too. It was a real problem for me because it was a townhouse attached to mine. That was the last time I ever owned an attached dwelling.
But you're not reversing it, you're only brute-forcing a collision. It won't tell you if you've found the original password or a different string that coincidentally hashes the same with that particular algorithm.
Alt Right is generally identified by not even pretending to be progressive. Reddit is not "alt-right."
I'm a bit puzzled by this article. Sure, the tech media didn't question it very much. But then again, I never really associated the tech media with any level of serious investigative journalism. I doubt they have the time, manpower or ability to really dig deep behind the PR barrier. Plus, as the article mentions, they make a lot of money from keeping companies happy.

If I want someone to give me the lowdown on what's really going on, then I'll turn to the NYT first, not TechCrunch. Surely I'm not alone in this?

We are all Satoshi
Your adage is based on random supreme court dicta in Hubbell and Doe, and you know courts have gone either way. ;)

So let's just both agree we are suggesting the world is a little more black and white than it is.

I would not try to predict what would happen square-on today, given the splits involved.
This article seems to miss the role of theories in physical sciences. When we talk about 'cause' we understand that to mean that some chain of events, governed by the rules of physics, lead to the result. Yes, those rules of physics were arrived at largely as a result of observation of correlations, but no one is going to propose military coups leading orange harvests as a fundamental physical law on the basis of observed correlation.
Aligning Your Goals and Your Monetization Strategy
I didn't state my point well enough; people are the driving factor here. The density is caused by people wanting to move to SF. High rises are a way to deal with the reality, not providing housing isn't going to solve the problem in any way people are going to be happy with.
Well said. I also would like to point out that the resources are available for free, libraries, coursera, EdX, khan, for programming, you do not need a university diploma to program computers.
> Well, before 9/11 you didn't have to check your firearms. You could carry them on as long as they were in a case.

Do you have a source for that? Because for as long as I can remember they have had to be checked, including in the 90s.
I actually had a friend who successfully resolved cravings in a completely different way - she'd binge on the food she craved until she'd never ever crave it again. I've never been able to bring myself to try her approach, but it worked for her.
Atlanta has a great tech scene. I get paid SF wages, and I'm renting a 2-bedroom apartment for only $1k. Everything goes into savings. On top of that, Atlanta has great food, music, and arts scenes. I'm sure there are other cities that could fit the bill as well.
That's not how the F-35 was conceived or designed, not at all. It was a highly competitive contract with the requirements given to a few companies and they were given some amount of money to compete for the best design[1].

Your comment is nonsense.

It was more than that- there were antidebugger measures. The node list was encrypted. Protocol obfuscated. Also people in skype network were nodes. The supernodes were dedicated servers.
that keyboard rant is written 6 years ago. Back then many programers will praise Das all over, but not aware that many keyboard in gamer community are cheaper even with better quality.

Das was primarly marketing to programers, but recently they are marketing to gamers. (disclaimer: opinion only.)

I mentioned that old article recently in my new keyboard blog. I think that's how the rant resurfaced.
Hangouts work without plugins and just WebRTC, or at least that's what I thought. Does it not?
Not sure what "Fast 5/2" is but if you are losing more than a pound a week (maybe two) it's going to be impossible maintain it because it won't feel natural and your calorie craving is going to rush right back.

Those poor people were manipulated into losing a pound PER DAY which is insane. I cannot even fathom that.

Take your time, schedule a year, and see what you can do. Be patient and persistent. Change your lifestyle/habits, try to keep busy instead of eating. Worked for me. Not easy but doable.
Favelas are a world fenomenon. We call them by various names, chantytowns, slums, whenever there is a long-term concentration of low-income classes without access to infrastructure but requiring living quarters near middle and upper income classes due to work reasons these tend to appear.

Check out recent documentaries on Favelas, it will probably surprise you in both positive notes and also on horrible notes as well. Favelas are a cultural part of Rio in a way that most slums elsewhere are not. Favelas are intertwined with higher-income classes in the urban areas where they occupy the many hill areas of Rio. They dictate music and trends for millions of people and are a huge part of what makes Rio into Rio.

Still our corrupt governments, crimelords, militias, and consumerist culture makes those places prone to crime and violence.

Talking to you and taking you as an "isolated white american", pick some violence-prone neighborhood in your state and imagine if you could break it up into small areas and sprinkle that on top of your most prized real state area. This is Rio, where poor and rich live couple streets away from each other. In many places in the U.S. such neighborhoods occur away from higher-income regions in suburbs or far away districts, here, it is all mixed and that leads to a lot of confusion for foreigners.

Favelas are also a sympton of the lack of infrastructure. Mass transit in Rio is a joke and living/real state is very expensive. Favelas are the only solution for millions that need to work in the city but can't afford to live anywhere better. It is a self-perpetuating problem where people are born to these neighborhood and lack the access to education and opportunities that would enable life changing events that would move them and their families into better conditions.

Long story short: our governments (federal, state and city) sucks. People keep electing corrupt people. No one knows a way out of this mess.
It is an intellectually intolerant ideology, that is the beginning and the end of the explanation of it. It crosses all classes and demographic groups, it thinks it is right and everyone else is wrong, and if you're that sure of something, you have the moral authority to stamp out anyone who disagrees with you. It's been a characteristic of the far left for hundreds of years.

yeah its a really fun time. Along with all of the shops, microbreweries and bars that opened up within the last four years, there is a makerspace called the center of gravity which opened fairly recently [1]. It's got 3D printers and all that jazz. The city has done a nice job reinventing itself.

Italy has a lot of cities that are fairly dense, but not Hong Kong or Singapore dense.

As someone who's been on SSRIs for the majority of my life for Panic Disorder[1] (from age 11 to age 28), there was a period of time when being on Paroxetine (Paxil in the US) I started to read these stories and sympathize with them, trying to blame all of my behavioral / mental problems on the drug, even though the drug literally saved my life. Paroxetine isn't without its issues, and it took many many years to taper off of it without side-effects, but these sorts of anecdotes do nothing to help people in these situations.

There's a stigma with SSRIs that you either a) lose your creative ability and become a pharmaceutical drone or b) become suicidal. I've heard people tell me that anti-depressants are bad since they are not "pure" and you aren't being "yourself". They clearly don't know what it's like to have something like Panic Disorder, or severe depression. It was this stigma that made me taper off Paroxetine. I felt like I was "cheating". Eventually my anxieties started coming back (though less severely) in my later years and I'm on Lexapro now, and I've realized that not only have these drugs worked, my life is in every way better than it was before. Who cares if it's cheating?

I know this is just an anecdote just like the ones in the link, but I think it's important that people do what they need to do to live a good life, and if you're reading this and considering anti-depressants, there is nothing wrong with trying, and the stigma should be fought.

Good to know. I'm willing to accept that Satoshi was not a statistician or a great writer (or even a great programmer) and yet he was still able to succinctly describe a problem few people in the world even knew existed at the time.
