As a start you can just go to Thingiverse to search for a model that fills your need and send it to the printer. That would take you all of a couple of minutes. Per try, until it comes out ok.

If you want to try your hand at 3d modelling then you'll probably download Sketchup as a start and noodle around while watching youtube tutorials on the side. In about 8h you'll feel confident enough to actually model something meaningful. After ~40h you'll be able to knock together a model quite proficiently.

After you'll have gotten tired of Skethub producing broken STLs and not allowing you to change your mind after modelling a thing, you'd move on to one of the real CAD software package, like Solidworks or Fusion 360 (which is great for beginners, btw). That rabbithole goes exactly as deep as you've got time for :)

Fiddling with the printing itself will take a bit of setup time before each print and then a lengthy wait (hours to days) to get the result, or see it fail in some new and unfunny way. It's not really all that difficult, to be honest, just takes some time to develop an intuition about what's likely to fail.
3 of the Best Abdominal Exercises to Build Your Core
I am set to finish my PhD in organic chemistry in about 6 months... I could go on for a while but, in retrospect it seems like a pretty huge mistake. (I love it and the work, but the bills are coming due, and going into the post-doc or adjunct prof pool seems like a high risk gamble to me.)

You seem to be at a point that is just about halfway. Can you master out? (you can likely apply to a different program with a masters if you really want the PhD.) You also mention that he is bad at science and funding, but good a politicing. So unless you want to be a raging socialite, it does not seem he has much to offer you.

If you do stick with it -- network heavily! This was my biggest mistake, and seems to have put a real damper on any future prospects. My other mistake was believing that STEM shortage garbage, so make sure that the degree has some actual value. Otherwise you may find yourself teaching yourself programming and looking at job threads on HN.

Good luck!

In short: probably.
honest question: Any idea why Toronto (and Canada in general) is not higher in this list?
From earlier in the same section: "The origin of the dish is disputed. One explanation is that it originated in an Indian restaurant in the United Kingdom,[3][7] but probably from the British Bangladeshi community which ran most Indian restaurants in Britain.[7] Rahul Verma, a Delhi expert on street food, offered a different explanation, speculating in 2009 that the dish may have originated—probably by accident with subsequent improvisations—in the Punjab and Uttar Pradesh during the last 50 years.[1]"
I happened to be in Russia when the Who's Hiring thread showed up. I have family there, so I was entertaining the thought of possibly moving there, or maybe staying for a year or two.

However, I noticed most of the remote locations were "US-only", and even the ones in other countries were usually local to that country -- "germany only", etc.

I was wondering how many of the "US-only" ones would accept me, since I am a US Citizen, just not living in the US. Or is there some kind of tax reason they have to be US-only?
So? Tomatoes aren't Italian, but pizza is.

I'm only aware of one single movement of a 1500m test train, consisting of 76 container wagons and three SBB Re 620 locomotives, which would make 322 axles if I'm not mistaken, for the curious.

At the same time, that was a run through the Gotthard Base Tunnel, and running onto similarly modernised infrastructure, and hence less likely to have 40 year old axle counters in use.
I think its a lot more complex than that.

If the cost of beef was increased 4x for whatever reason, then most people would just switch their preference for meat.

There are ofcourse a lot of greedy companies.

But a lot of the time the consumer demands a price point for software product, many startups cannot afford to pay 400K to developers.

I think its not a reflection of how difficult it might be to create software but stagnant wages for the average person.
I agree that it should get easier, from release to release, to upgrade, but I am not surprised by the bugs you encountered. On the plus side, the first 'really stable' Xenial release is due soon [1] though I can't say that would guarantee your bugs will be squashed, even then - however, it is important to log them [2] to make sure they get some attention.

As a pizza wannabe-snob, I thought their Neapolitan pizza was outstanding (ingredients, dough, charring) pretty much everywhere I went. (Similar to fancy pizza in the US).

Also their croissants were fabulous (almost on par to the ones I got in Paris) and compared to the mostly crap (unless you go to a passionate bakery) you get in the US.

We are using Kotlin in production for two projects.
One is a spring boot backend for an online banking app for a large european bank. The other is an Android app for an NGO that gives out microloans to farmers who would not get a loan from a bank.

I find Kotlin a low-risk alternative to Java. Your code still feels like a normal Java project: You use the same frameworks, you have excellent tool support, you can keep searching for java questions on stackoverflow. Kotlin is fast and fully compatible with your Java code.

We are hiring at the moment, and our offer asks for an experienced Java/Spring developer. We just mention Kotlin at the end of the description.

Kotlin is not the right tool if you "hate" Java. It feels like the language that the Java 8 team would have built if backwards compatibility was not an issue.

Apart from some very useful syntactic sugar, it has

- no checked exceptions
- classes and methods are by default final
- no primitives that need to be (auto)boxed to and from objects
- no "static" context
- first class functions
- named function arguments that can have defaults
- null safety
- less broken generics

I like Java as a platform, and I think the language is perfectly fine. But Kotlin offers a cleanup and improvement, at almost no cost.

Another benefit that others haven't mentioned, is that if active server behaviours are needed, you can attach a 'server' like a client.

In some circumstances, interacting with users via the database as a messaging system can protect them from issues with your server code, and server outages: if your server goes down, users will still be able to log in and interact with the database via client side code - they'll only lose access to server related functions.

Losing brother: “I am shocked and disappointed with the decision and I will be considering my options.”

Winning brother: “My love for my brother is unconditional...I’m thankful for the opportunity to put this challenging time behind us,”.

One of my biggest concerns the past 10 years or so has been the difficult of technology's distinguishing between "building stuff to make the world better" and "chasing nickels". This is clearly an example of the latter. Brothers in court? Disgusting.

I have always been a big proponent of free markets and sure, everyone has a right (and responsibilty) to earn for their good work, but this is just beyond any of that. Stories like this one demonstrate the worst behavior in a world full of blessings.

Frankly, I would sooner give it all up and do volunteer work before I would go to court against my own brother. Obviously, not everyone feels this way. What a pity some of us have lost our way and in the name of "something else", forgot what's really important.

Notably, the UK still largely relies upon track circuits for train detection, though the GWML (from London Paddington to Bristol) is moving to axle counters along with its move to ETCS Level 2. It's likely the rest of the UK will slowly move over to axle counters as signalling equipment becomes life-expired.
I agree, but I worked at a tech company that IPO'd in 2014, and to this day they still get referred to as a startup. E.g. Shopify, Etsy, GrubHub, Care.com, Zendesk, etc.

>"Also dealing with the hate you get when you charge for an online service requires you to grow a thick skin."

Out of curiosity, was the fallout over the lack of security very bad? I was in Chiang Mai last fall and nomads at coworking spaces and meetups were all talking about it. Several downloaded the entire chat logs from Nomad List. I was horrified to be honest but hadn't really chatted about much of anything yet so I never complained.

I will say though that it was a bit grating to see you bragging on twitter about not bothering with frameworks or testing right after having seen discussions I'd thought were at least somewhat private downloaded and passed around online.
Shareholders, especially ones who own 40% of the company, have a reasonable expectation that the company CEO will be acting in their financial interests.

And there's quite a strong argument that the CEO was acting in their financial interests, just on a longer time scale than many people today can be bothered with.

The issue here is largely attributable to statements from Milton Friedman and people who like to quote him, which leads to the mistaken belief that companies are legally obligated to provide blind, hell-bent, maximum short-term-return-no-matter-the-long-term cost "value" to shareholders. Which in turn has all but driven out the idea of providing consistent long-term profit to shareholders, and to "I bought a bunch of your stock Monday, gut your company to give me a payday Tuesday or I'll sue and overthrow your board on Wednesday" somehow being enshrined as a noble endeavor.

UBI probably for some extended time into the future would require some other social benefits, but to say that it requires "all" other social benefits is simply wrong. It wouldn't take a very high level of UBI to completely displace the need for existing General Assistance programs in the US, it would take a higher level to replace SNAP and TANF.
Seems to me, this might be a good question for StackOverflow because the gamification incentives and intersted expertise are better aligned with the nature of the problem.

We embrace technology for every stupid purpose imaginable, yet remote work facilitated by technology is generally viewed with disdain. It makes no sense, which is why remote work will continue to rise into the future. The dramatic centralization of our industry into a few locations also doesn't help with the crush of housing costs.

I don't think Android is a good example of a platform which .NET supports which Java doesn't since Java is the primary development language for Android apps...

I am interested in this, I participated in some tests on a few ecommerce sites in the past and it seemed to not make much of a difference, except for very new b2c apparel type companies that had no name recognition with consumers. In those cases Paypal did help some, but honestly branding, messaging and other things mattered just as much if not more. The sample act of having a prominently placed phone number on the site we found would lift sales, having a real address not a PO Box etc, would lift sales etc. Consumers feel better if they can find you and talk to you other then via just email. This also changes demographically too as we found.

You mentioned subscriptions, so I am assuming this is some type of B2C app or B2C service? Can you say what industry and what it is? e.g. Service, App, or ? And what is the typical transaction amount? This all likely is a factor too.

Also, you mentioned users preferring Paypal over Stripe, in 90% of our cases it was Paypal or the "business", clients never knew the business was using Stripe or First Data etc. Never tested that part on consumers decision process though, e.g. Stripe checkout vs Paypal checkout.

Could it be that this runs on little endian? And some code is accessing a 16 or 32 bit integer as though it were just a byte, so it gets only the low 8 bits?

This the one disadvantage of little endian: an aliasing bug between different integer widths is hidden if the code isn't tested with sufficiently large values. On big endian, it's likely an instant show-stopper, since small values near zero map to zero.

Note how the issue is that the value can't be a multiple of 256: i.e. have the least eight significant bits clear. That's troubling still, because although an axle count of 257 mitigates the signaling problem, the strong suspicion lingers remains that this 257 might be treated as an axle count of 1; and doesn't that have ramifications? I.e. it might be used as an 8 bit value for more than just an "do we have axles or not" test.
They are not designed to be a custom tailored highest-performance cure-all for the highest possible theoretical computing throughput.

I beg to differ vehemently, as the FireEngine TCP/IP stack in illumos was designed to be the highest possible performance cure-all for highest possible throughput. I've posted the links above in another entry. That GNU/Linux's TCP/IP stack is hitting the limits does not mean that nobody else is capable of designing a high performance TCP/IP stack, and indeed, I have been able to max out 1 Gbit connection running Solaris 10 on a measly DELL R910. If the network administrator hadn't come running to "turn it off! Turn the damn thing off!", I would have maxed out a trunked 40 Gbit link too. I sure taught that guy a lesson that day, never again have I heard a peep about "not ever seeing anyone being able to max out a 1 Gbit connection with a single machine".

Only Solaris / illumos' FireEngine makes it possible.
The problem, though, is that it's not the sort of positive outcome you can put on a CV or otherwise use professionally. You simply can't badmouth an advisor, which is part of the "look what I overcame" narrative. Without that you'll either be "just another PhD", or to people who know the advisor, "a PhD from that jerk". The latter might get you sympathy or antipathy, and the former will get you nothing special.

None of this to say it's not an impressive achievement, or an educational one. But in the professional sphere, it's not proof of any of those positive traits - they'll still need to be demonstrated elsewhere to trade on them.

I don't really get this, I've found European food to be fine, but really not any better than here in New York, especially for food that isn't native to the specific country (New York is filled with excellent restaurants for many Asian countries, even though it is obviously not in Asia).

Then there's the obvious farmer's market culture here (Union Square especially is a madhouse on Saturdays), and some people do CSAs, food co-ops, etc.
> it's too late to switch groups without wasting an additional 3 years

Question this assumption.

There's something that you might not be aware of: you are a valuable resource to your advisor. The Ph.D. students he graduates go on his CV. Somewhere out there is an associate professor for whom graduating an additional student could be the difference between getting tenure and not. Find that person and negotiate a better situation for yourself.
It's a big achievement, of course. But on your CV? No. I fail to see how you could convey the lengths you went to in dealing with a bad adviser in a brief, tactful way on a CV. Nor would I want to; seems like it could easily backfire.

Of course hundreds of probable individual causes can be attributed to this phenomenon. The Galileo of medicine will be the one who can unify and make the data sensible without pretending one or two factors caused it all.
This really strikes me more as a problem of incentives than "lol psych researches need to learn statistics".

Incentives in this situation are funding and publication. These both require positive results. This seems to be tied to increasing monetization of science driving it away from a principled search for the truth.

We also see this with patents. My girlfriend has her first lab job this summer, and they had a day long seminar with the university's patent foundation on methods to ensure that nobody stole their ideas. This leads to a lot of secrecy (for example, this particular patent office doesn't allow researchers to store anything in the cloud, which speaks to lack of technical understanding, but also to an intense paranoia). This also dramatically reduces the capacity for sharing basic lab know how - there's nothing remotely like StackOverflow for scientists.

This issue is a bit near to my heart, as the company I work for was originally founded to help researchers share data in a secure way. It turned out that there wasn't any demand for that, because, as our CEO put it, "Everybody thinks their going to win the damn Nobel Prize". So we pivoted and now sell mostly to financial and tech companies that are serious about protecting user data.

I will add that for products with nutrition labels, label claims are way stricter in Canada. In the USA, a label claim such as 200mg of Caffiene or 200mg of Sodium must be true at the best before date in order to be valid, but there is no tollerance for how far outside of it the product is when fresh. So 200mg of caffiene could actually mean 400mg of caffiene, with a five year shelf life, so that as the caffiee degrades, the product stays on the shelf long enough to sell, and is still 200mg at expiry. In Canada, a product must be within a percentage of claim value (5-10%) at all times, so things are much more likely to contain what they say they contain in the amount they say they contain it. Further, many products are pre-market regulated (supplements/fortified foods) and/or regulators are on-site full time (meat and some cheese processing) as opposed to the US where there is mostly post-market regulation (ie. a complaint is followed up by an inspector).
I switched advisors in my fourth year of a neuroscience PhD. I distinctly recall wondering if it was worth burning 2+ years in a different lab for an experience that might not be better. For me, switching labs was 100% the right decision. I'm still in science, love what I do, and I'm glad I changed even if it was "too late."

Try to distance yourself a little to get perspective. Even from a one week vacation, a month in a collaborator's lab, anything to try to remove yourself and then re-evaluate. Your advisory committee can also help, once you articulate that you're considering leaving.
