How to setup a dial up connection on PC
Dial Up Connection is a connection that allows you to connect your mobile phone to the PC (Your
computer) to browse the Internet.

Most people have been using PC for a while now and imagine you have Much Data onyour Sim Card but browsing on phone seem not to be so enjoyable compared to browsing on PC.

Onthis post today am going to show you how to connect your phone to browse on the PC Using Two Methods.

But Method 1 only would be explained for today then on my next post Method 2 will be explained!

While that was a fairly aggressive way of commenting, I'll still answer for the sake of other people reading this.

Here's an example of how social workers in Israel were let down by the Histadrut - Israel's organization of trade unions.
http://www.jpost.com/National-News/Social-workers-feel-let-d...

Social workers are some of the lowest paid government workers in Israel, and they always participate in general strikes when requested by the Histadrut. They've helped secure higher salaries for bank unions, airport unions, electric unions and port worker unions.
But when it was there turn to strike (After decades of stagnant income), they were thrown under the bus, with the Histadrut negotiating a deal that didn't even offer a raise that would cover the lost income.

Leader of the Israeli Labor Party (Closely tied with the union leaders) Shelly Yachimovich even put out a public letter calling on social workers to end their strike. Effectively taking away any bargaining power they had left.

My grandfather had Alzheimer's and after several years of accelerating decline, he fell and broke his hip and over the course of another year slowly deteriorated into him being wheelchair-bound and basically catatonic, until he developed a wound which would not heal.

It finally got bad enough that he was moved to hospice. The doctors and nurses at his hospital did not make any sort of suggestions about "helping him along" and it was my wife (whose mother works for a probate/guardianship attorney and has observed the process many times) who suggested that they use the code words to "help him along". My parents and grandmother, ever in denial, would not consider it.

So instead he lay there being given palliative care but no food or drink, only water sponged on his lips to keep them moist, for 2 weeks before he finally died of either starvation or dehydration. It was awful- his urine turned a dark purple and it was like he melted from the inside.

I wish the doctors had been a little more forward about it. There was absolutely no purpose in making him endure that. I can only hope his mind was by then too far gone to suffer, but it sure looked like suffering to me. My wife and I have discussed it and both know that's we would prefer a little help. Sometimes it really is the most humane thing to do.

You can counter this by creating a hook to scramble keys as they are typed. There are countless antiloggers out there and they're the first thing I install on any fresh distro. Why this antilogging technique is not the default in most so called 'hardened' systems is beyond me. Really low hanging fruit like the ability to log keys should be looked after first and not addressed at some future date when you realize 20+ years of keystrokes were siphoned off your machine.

A few people are wondering about regulations and oversight.
Here's a brief summary for this law:

* Max $1 million total fund-raising

* Max $2,000 or 5% net-worth from each unaccredited (i.e. non-rich) investor

* Must file audited financials with the SEC to start, and every year afterwards

* Must use a registered portal, which must be a different entity with different owners

Getting your financials publicly audited every year is a major pain, and I think it's going to make this non-viable for most companies.

I've seen the result of a driver unexpectedly doing just over 35mph on a moderately busy 70mph motorway. Not nice. I don't even think 35mph is that much slower really - trucks are at 56mph and they get along fine but 35ish resulted in all sorts of crazy last minute swerves.

It's generally wise not to do anything other drivers will find surprising and I guess 35mph on a motorway falls in that category.
That used to be true, but he's had a stake in IBM since 2011 (which he just increased)
More of my fellow Americans should read up on the IWW. Which was far more serious about workplace democracy than those relatively right wing, corporate-friendly unions that the US promoted.

> But it seems odd that you define talking about something "effectively" and not being challenged on your opinions.

The US is pretty fundamentalist: over 40% believe God created humanity 10,000 years ago [1] and many have disturbing beliefs about the "invisible hand" (of divine providence, of course), which they try to impose on others. So when people try to talk about these things, highly motivated fundamentalists clog the discussion with dogma, when they numerically dominate.

These two forms of fundamentalism are strongly linked. ("Debt: the First 5000 Years" discusses this.)

Follow up to your edit - and I'm totally familiar with the "Circle of Competence" philosophy, but given Buffett has stated he won't invest in things which he doesn't understand, and he's said he doesn't understand tech, then it's safe to say that he has a "no tech" rule. I've always been unsure of how to interpret the circle of competence thing, as people always develop new skills, so personally I look at it as "only invest in things with which you are most familiar".

Yet, almost every week there's someone writing online "this happened to me what do I do?". I mainly use my union for unemployment insurance, salary statistics, contract negotiation and conflict resolution. It's more like having a human resources department on your side than anything else. It's not "protections" that makes the difference, at least not for highly skilled workers, it's the knowledge and the bargaining power. And I somewhat doubt that US people don't want those "protections" because they are highly sought after when they are instead called "perks".

I remember around the year 2000, there was a newspaper clipping about a guy that had received an award. It might have been a nobel prize, but I cannot remember now.

He essentially proved that mergers and acquisitions destroyed jobs. Yes this seems intuitive, but he backed it up with proof.

Large companies are ingrained in their industry, and when you see them in the news, it is usually related to mergers and acquisitions.

So if larger companies do not create jobs, who creates them then?

I would say it is successful startups. Are they net job generators, I do not have any data to prove or disprove that. But I can say that new innovation provides more opportunities for job creation.

I know a few people (myself included) who claim to get impaired by marijuana. While I don't drink and drive myself, some of that crowd do, but, they never smoke and drive.

Not only is there the correlation as described in the article, I've also seen (p=0) much more honest self-evaluation on marijuana.

Absolutely. The ability to recover from a mistake without anyone knowing.

Sounds like the video ad is a new activity? Since it's full screen, your main activity is no longer visible so you should be seeing onPause and onStop fire. Are you saying you don't see them?

Also, I'd imagine video ads are also quite memory intensive, so if a low-RAM device is playing one I wouldn't be surprised if Android has to kill some processes (like your activity that was sent to the background) to make space.

Perhaps you should look into what these video ads are doing and what sort of resources they eat up?

> a technology that can instantly detect whether someone's reflexes are impaired

I'm not sure if that would work in practice. As mentioned, alcohol makes someone more confident, or more likely to do stupid things. The test should incorporate that.

From another point of view, the alcohol tricks you into thinking your reflexes are still normal, while they are not. And this is the dangerous part, not the fact that your reflexes are somewhat lower (and perhaps comparable to an old lady who is still perfectly capable to drive safely).
Aren't anti-antiloggers equally easy to write? Countering an example keylogger is easy, but countering a production-ready keylogger, assuming that keylogger actually gets to load itself as a kernel module, doesn't seem like low-hanging fruit.

What's the threat model you have where evil kernel modules are installed on your machine, yet they don't do things like siphon off your files, read passwords out of the memory of running processes, add entries to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys if and only if the current process's name is "sshd", etc.?

The reflexes come in with being able to make complex and delicate movements required to actually use an instrument. It's kind of like touch typing but more so, for music to sound smooth those movements have to just "happen" rather than being explicitly thought out.

Why I declined an offer from Apple
I think most of the author's comments apply to the Win32 API in general. Windows game developers are probably among the few tech demographics that still have to encounter it on a regular basis. Having written an entire game to the Win16 API and then later ported it to Win32 I lost a significant chunk of my life spent in drilling into GDI and DirectDraw (I think that is what it was called then) structures and entrypoints. Pretty much the whole native API looks like his examples.

I also thought it was perhaps a tad strange to equate CSS, DirectShow, and the Android SDK as examples of tough "APIs" to master. I get his point, but those are three pretty wildly different levels of abstraction there.
> That being said, most people in the US aren't clamoring for a lot of the "protections" you'll find in western Europe.

I don't think most people in the US has any concept of the kind of protections you get in most of western Europe being possible.

Talented musicians of all sort can learn how to improvise, but it's a learned skill, not simply "hey, different music means I do something different!" It's an acquired skill that means training your ear to create cohesive melodies.

Yup, that's how Rust does it and I vastly prefer it to C++(or Java) exceptions. The compiler forces you to handle the value so you still have all the enforcement of checked exceptions.

Option/Result are really well designed and let you express all sorts of wonderful flow. Being able to .and_then(), .or_else() or the combination of them and many others is just sublime. The doc page goes into quite a bit of detail: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/error-handling.html
You're right, it's not national. But as far as I'm aware, all states have general rules against impeding traffic. Many don't have explicit laws against moving too slow in the left lane, but the general law can and will be used against you for egregious violations.

And to some extent there are marketplaces. They're called independent insurance agents. The problem is Agents cost a lot versus direct to consumer marketing.

Could you build and automated agency, possibly but you have a lot of hand holding people want.

Some of the problems at the carrier level:

-large players that are heavily invested in technology.

-Each state is different and regulated separately.

-Fraud, Fraud, Fraud

-Complex legal contracts that require lawyers and compliance people.

-acquiring customers is expensive and low margins leave very little to disrupt.

-it takes years to get enough underwriting data to get it right.

- same with investing the money.

Its a matter of degree; of course stopping on the freeway is not a good idea. Here's a stat:

Samuel C. Tignor and Davey Warren. "Driver Speed Behavior on U.S. Streets and Highways." Institute of Transportation Engineers: 1990 Compendium of Technical Papers, 1990 August, p. 85.
"The accident involvement rates on streets and highways in urban areas was highest for the slowest 5 percent of traffic, lowest for traffic in the 30 to 95 percentile range and increased for the fastest 5 percent of traffic."
You're misunderstanding...

The whole point is to never run in a broken state.... that path leads to expensive misery.

The point of resetting is to clear out bad state... if the condition has no defined recovery process then you cannot continue safely.

I'm not saying to not handle an error... I'm saying to not attempt recovery from undefined errors.

If you don't know what went wrong, don't attempt to 'handle' it... reset.
Right, but that seems more like fine motor skills than reflexes, no?
How would you differentiate between someone with good reflexes who is currently impaired by cannabis, and someone with bad reflexes who isn't?

As a followup question, what would be the point of making that distinction?
I think the problem here is they're taking data from a bunch of late-20s millennials.

> This prolonged interim state results in a lot of pain, and some studies suggest today’s young people are suffering more than previous generations did.

These kids aren't being drafted into war service. Crime and teenage pregnancy are down, civil rights are increasing, commodities are cheap and plentiful, access to global information and communication is higher than ever, advances in medicine continue to make formerly terminal diseases become manageable or preventable. The biggest thing millennials have to stress over is their debt and their ability to secure a job, both of which are issues most people have had to deal with by their late 20s.

From what I understand of the quarter-life crisis, it presents mainly in people who have been so privileged that they feel that even though they can self-sustain, they should be doing something better, like following a passion, or living in a different place. Fear of death is another factor, but it's less present than the fear of missing out.

Your late 20s are basically the end of what should be a wonderful time: wasting your youth and not worrying about your body falling apart (which it will begin to shortly). If kids these days are actually in a great deal of pain, it's because our society has given then an irrational sense of entitlement and fear of not having the best of everything.
Not necessarily. The index fund is supposed to track the index. It doesn't need to actually buy the exact stocks as the index, though in the case of the S&P 500, that might be the easiest strategy.

Agreed. I know anecdotes aren’t data, but here are some of the workplace injuries I witnessed before I got a white collar job:

Hardees - frier accident=third degree burn. Management told her to finish the dinner rush. Two days later when her leg wasn't healing she went to the doctor. The owners never paid for the doctor, fought her workers comp claim, and fired her a few weeks after she came back to work.

Little Caesar's - cook slipped and got a deep cut on his arm. The manager tried to keep him at work until he ruined a couple pizzas by bleeding on them. He drove himself to the emergency room. He quit the next month when the owners refused to pay for the emergency room bill.

UPS - When I worked at a bookstore, the UPS guy who delivered to our mall came in with a terrible limp. A stack of boxes had fallen on him as they were loading the truck. His manager told him to complete his shift since they didn’t have any other drivers. He ended up needing knee surgery and having to fight the company for months for workers comp. To UPS’s credit, they didn’t fire him and he was still working for UPS when I quit the bookstore job. (I lived in a right-to-work state, so I don’t think the UPS drivers were unionized.)

I think location is also a big factor here. I've lived in multiple parts of the US, and most of it is simply designed against walking. I enjoy taking casual walks, but when I lived in the midwest, I had to drive to a park to walk. There were no sidewalks, and the streets were dangerous for pedestrians (lots of blind curves, speeding cars, etc). It always frustrated me that I had to take a vehicle to go for a walk.

Mostly nonsense. Though I did find the point about lowering wages at least somewhat compelling. On the other hand, is this really true?

> Many economists observe that when it comes to wages, the floor price is often determined by the cost of the workers' ability to survive from day-to-day.

If that were the case why would we need the minimum wage?
When my grandmother was in hospice care at home, there were bottles of liquid morphine in her refrigerator. Her family was free to administer it as needed, for pain.
That's how my grandfather went, at the end of years of steadily worsening Alzheimer's. We kept suggesting to my parents that they suggest to the staff that he was "in pain", but they wouldn't. It took him over 2 weeks to die. It was a terrible thing to watch, and seemed completely pointless- you've already decided that he's going to die, why prolong it? Somehow doing something to "help him along" is killing him, but withholding food and water is not. :(
