My issues with Instacart is that not every shopper knows how to shop for produce.

I order avocados from instacart: They're all black on the inside when I cut into them.

I order specialty chips or cheeses? They're marked as "Item out of stock," but when I run to the same grocery store that they shopped at after my delivery it's right there in plain sight to me.

I order deli meat from Instacart? They ignore my comments about how I would like it to be sliced and deliver it to me shredded.

Outside of that? I love instacart -- as long as they're packaged goods (pick and ship) and they're not hot deli items or cold/frozen items (I've had drivers put yogurt in the same bag as a lot of frozen veggies and peas and stuff that shouldn't have been frozen was frozen.)

I signed up for Snapchat and didn't use it for an entire year. It just didn't make sense. The whole thing seemed pointless to me. Then it clicked. I'm not sure what it was, but once you have friends using Snapchat, it definitely becomes more enjoyable. If you don't know anyone with a Snapchat, Try following some celebrities first.
> Why? The ads aren't that bad.

Honestly, the ads are easily the worst part of youtube for me. I'm logged into my google account, everywhere, all the time. And yet they still appear to go out of their way to find the least relevant ads they can find. Adsense doesn't seem to suffer the same, so this disconnect has always puzzled me.

Looking for: Java Software Engineer

Hello,
I've started to work with Java and Big Data in a smal startup 2 years ago. Started with very simple MySQL+Solr, 300+ million of documents system. Eventually got to HDFS + HBase + MapReduce + Solr, 23+ billion of documents in search at once (with more and more documents being added each second).

I'm excited by Java in general, multi-threading, Big Data and back-end development.

Why relocating: to get greater opportunities and experience (and there is not so much choiсe in my city).
Of course it ended nigh-unmaintainable. You need to have deep knowledge of
state-of-the-art of system administration already to create something
maintainable, but most of the people who start with LFS do so precisely to
learn the field (well, very low-level part of it).

It's possible (maybe even likely) a key piece of evidence as to what happened is missing. And also, given what's known so far, that piece of evidence has not been found and thus remains unknown to anyone but the hikers.

This is a great post! My workplace is about 65/35 male / female and I have this crazy approach to working with women - treating them like normal people! I've never been the type to make sexualized jokes or engage in that stereotypical 'male' office behavior, so censoring myself has never been an issue but it's really just about not assuming things about someone before you actually know them.

It works pretty well, I've met men that aren't particularly experienced or talented as programmers and women - it's stupid and shortsighted to presume things about people you don't know.

It's interesting nursing is always brought up in these discussions. My wife is an RN on her way to being a NP and I've noticed that it's an incredibly hostile field for newcomers despite being dominated by women. Partly this is a result of abusive patients (usually men, but their families as well) - since the ACA hospitals are paid in part based on their patient satisfaction ratings and these people seem to assume nurses are there to be part concierge, part maid, part entertainer - not medical professionals there to monitor your health and keep you alive. A nurse can actually threaten her hospital's revenue streams if she responds in a hostile manner towards the sexual harassment they are likely to receive from patients and their families.

It's also a result of bullying from more senior-staff which takes the form of shitty patient assignments, undesirable work schedules, and a general hostility and casual disrespect from doctors, residents and PAs (this is where some more misogyny enters the picture).

Another interesting thing is the education required to enter the field. Nursing was once an occupation you could start with an Associates degree - in many areas that is no longer the case and a BSN is considered the minimum. At Johns Hopkins School of Nursing a solo BSN isn't even offered anymore, all new students need to enter on a BSN + Masters course path. The result has been a significantly higher barrier of entry into the field and I haven't heard any major news outlets discuss it at all.

Despite the prevalent attitudes towards the difficult work environment in Tech, I don't know any other field that offers the combination of high salaries and a relative disregard for your formal education. That seems to me incredibly empowering for individuals who are actually interested in the work and yet it's never really mentioned either.
I'm still not sure how I feel about taking advice from people who have failed a lot. All other things being equal, I'd rather take advice from people who have always been successful.

I think maybe they can be distinguished by whether they bang their head against a wall until reality finally cracks their thick skull or they attack hard problems until their learning curve catches up. It's hard to tell the difference, but intuitively I feel like it is there to be found.

For what it's worth, the people who make me think they fall into the former camp seem to converge on Scrum as they start to react to their string of failures. I don't have any data on that.
Doesn't LibreOffice Calc have a simple, standalone implementation of its formula functions, so that they can be copied instead of re-implemented by other projects?

>for instance I don't want to code async stuff and have it look like it's sync, because well, they're different concepts!

They shouldn't be though.

In the ideal case, code should be able to function 100% whether it's a sync or async operation -- kind of how promises (and async with promises) works. The async-ness should could just be a deployment/configuration detail.

I don't understand how you can divorce the hard work that goes into raising a child with the end result of that hard work. When you're changing diapers, do you really not think that you're helping your baby be healthy? That's not rewarding?

I know I said in another comment that my background doesn't matter but believe it or not, I'm actually a dad. Yeah, stuff is tough, boring... but I always think that it's worth it because I'm happy being a good dad.

The "result" of changing a diaper is that your kid isn't sitting around in their own waste. You can take some pride in making that happen IMO.

Also, gagging while changing diapers is a bit weak. You're not really making the case that men are more suited to be stay at home parents :P (jk)
Autologous mesenchymal stem cells are turning out to be one of the most underappreciated advancements in medicine today, and scandalously the FDA is slowing progress in the field by seeking to prevent doctors from harvesting and reintroducing one's own stem cells back into the body.

MSC's can be harvested from one's own adipose tissue with a little bit of liposuction.

The process of separating the stem cells from fat is called stromal vascular fraction.

It's an astoundingly easy process to do [1]. The equipment is inexpensive, and so far the procedure has been shown to be safe.

MSC's have been shown to improve COPD, and reduce the allergic response that triggers asthma. Skin damage healed, cartilage and joint injuries repaired, and even MS put in to remission,

MSC's administered via IV flock to areas of inflammation and damage and begin to repair it. The cells know what to do. Local administration is even better, as in this study or in cases of back pain and joint injuries.

Autologous treatments should not be considered biological drugs and subject to monopolization by biotech companies through decade long clinical trials and FDA approval.

These are our own cells from our own bodies. Doctors should be free to practice and innovate in this sphere, and in this case innovation is mostly just dosage, frequency and delivery method because the cells know what to do.

I believe that in the next decade or two, autologous stem cell treatments will be basic preventative care for everyone, a treatment each year will repair damage before it becomes pathology.

If I buy a pair of Merrell boots and get complimented on them, it doesn't follow that I should also buy Merrell running shoes, but per the article I'm more likely to. The brand is irrelevant to the compliment: I'm not being complimented on my Merrell's, I'm being complimented on my boots. The rational and reasonable thing would be to identify what about the boots is worth complimenting and aim to mimic that in future purchases. It could be the brand, but likely it's the cut, the shape, or some other visual quality.

OTOH, sometimes it is the brand that gets complimented.
The rational bidding strategy on EBay is to always place 1 bid at the maximum price you're willing to pay. The problem is that humans aren't rational. Some people place winning the auction higher on their priority list than bidding within their budget.
There's actually an argument to be made that some frozen or canned vegetables have higher nutrient content than the equivalent "fresh" vegetables at the grocery store, since the frozen ones are harvested closer to peak readiness and packed proximal to farms, versus the "fresh" veggies which may be harvested well in advance of when they're ready to give them adequate time for long transit to stores and a reasonable duration of shelf stability. I believe this is the case for tomatoes—not sure which other crops.

Unless you've grown them yourself, canned tomatoes will generally make a tastier pasta sauce than their fresh counterparts.
I think there's no mystery there. Video ads are fewer and cost more and Google needs to present "impressions" to their customers.

The reality is that women face presumptions about their technical incompetence at a much higher rate than men. This is well documented and researched. [1]

Obviously male developers also get undermined by their coworkers and face career plateaus. That is reality, but it is not a binary action - simply because some men face similar problems does not imply that it is an equal problem for both genders.

What do you think happens when your kids reach school age? You can kid yourself that changing diapers is part of some noble struggle (it is not), but there's no way to fool yourself during the 7 hours you'll spend waiting for them to get back from school. And, as they get older, those 7 hours become 9, sometimes 12, as they join clubs and go hang out with friends.

We use groupchat in WhatsApp. Two separate groups, one for each side of the family. Works ok but I can kinda begin to see the benefit of snapchat's ephemeral attitude even though I haven't tried it myself. However I don't se my wife's mother wanting to switch. She's retired and finds a great deal of joy of revisiting old movies of the kids. She would want to save the snaps anyways but I guess you can do that?
>You can post pretty shamelessly the little things you're up to all day to your story, knowing it will be gone in 24 hours, keeping your feed really clean.

Snapchat is ephemeral and more private, like the spoken word, and unlike pretty much all other social media that I know of. It is an interesting concept, people feel more open to share certain things when they know it will fade away soon after rather than be on historical record .
"It's likely that when we are all working for a living and prospering then we all prosper a little more."

Do you seriously think this is an achievable goal ?

There will be always people that can't or won't work hard for a living. It might be due to their upbringing, education, DNA, personal choices, health conditions, personality. It doesn't mean that these people should be left to their own devices, for the "selfish" reasons mentioned by the OP, if not for more "noble" ones.

Resource redistribution does not aim to "solve" income inequality, but to lessen its side effects. It might be not the only way, it is definitely not perfect and you might say it is not fair, but at least it is a realistic way to tackle a difficult problem.
FYI: 'no such agency' is what people used to call the NSA.

So, it was a substantive if simplistic comment, and a joke. Basically, 'Yea not the first time there has been a secret organization within the US government before.' + 'Sounds like a job for the NSA' + the double speak joke' of of course they would never do that.'
