In general, the whole "social issues are just distractions from economic problems, which are the only issues that matter" attitude taken by Thiel as a huge red flag.

Peter Thiel doesn't have to worry about being forced to use the wrong bathroom. Peter Thiel doesn't have to worry about being impregnated by a rapist and forced to carry the baby to term. Peter Thiel doesn't have to worry about shot by the police while his hands are up because the cops are afraid of his skin color. And evidently Peter Thiel is so disconnected from ordinary life that he's forgotten that he has to worry about being denied service because of his partner's gender.

These issues are real issues to matter to real people, and for some of us (including me, a lesbian trans woman), they are our top priority. The only reason he's saying this is because either he's lucky enough to be unaffected or he thinks he's unaffected. If Thiel thinks these issues are "fake", then he doesn't belong in a position of power, and I am automatically skeptical of any candidate he endorses.

It's just like last year, when Obergefell vs. Hodges happened, and immediately the anti-TPP crowd started claiming that Obergefell vs. Hodges was just a smokescreen meant to distract people from TPP being put on the fast track. I'm sorry, but my and more importantly my friends' ability to marry whoever we want is deeply important and very much real. All that little outburst by the anti-TPP crowd did is prove to me that the anti-TPP agenda is opposed to the LGBT rights movement. They've basically guaranteed that I'll never speak out against the TPP.

Overnight Success? Pokémon Go Took 20 Years to Take Off According to Its Creator
Chicago is the best city in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin. They have nothing to compare. I'd live there except the lack of mountains, lack of an ocean (surfing doesn't work on the Great Lakes even though they're beautiful), and freezing winters + hot humid Summer's would kill me. I can't go back to that. West coast; best coast.

This advice does not make much sense, DFU Mode is for performing a full restore on a device. It is not a way you'd just carry a device around, I believe it actually reboots after a certain amount of time.

At that point just walking around with a powered off device makes more sense than DFU.

This is very far from true.

Politically, Vermont went from being staunchly Republican to being staunchly Democratic. They're also much more open to changing norms, like embracing gay rights.
You're experiencing what I think a lot of college graduates experience these days: institutionalization. You no are longer part of a system that tells you what to do, when to do it, and how well you're doing it, with a promise of a better future that has no basis in reality, and you're feeling "completely LOST" as a result. It's normal, and it's curable.

You're asking if there is anything else to life, but likely you haven't actually experienced a day of real life. I think you need to figure out what life has to offer, and jumping right back into another institution is not the way to do it. Discover the world, whether by travel or by engaging in your local community. Meet new people, try new things, and above all, do not conform. It will not take long for you to discover that life happening all around you, but you've been sheltered from it. Once you discover real life you will realize how worthless your Business Administration degree truly is and laugh about how silly you were for thinking it was so important in the first place.
You cannot possibly be serious.

1) The emails refer to two upcoming primaries, which occurred in close temporal and spatial proximity to each other. Literally no other campaign in the nation is in two states. It is hard to imagine any other figure in the nation that that refers to other than Bernie Sanders. I didn't mention Bernie Sanders in my reply, so why did you think it was about Bernie and then attempt to deny it? I think you protest too much.

2) The email is clearly suggesting to use the question against Sanders. Your hypothetical suggestion is plainly unsupported by the facts. Let me just quote the objectionable e-mail:

> It might may no difference, but for KY and WVA can we get someone to ask his belief. Does he believe in a God. He had skated on saying he has a Jewish heritage. I think I read he is an atheist. This could make several points difference with my peeps. My Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a Jew and an atheist.

That is clearly saying that knowledge that Sanders is an atheist would hurt him in KY and WVA (by the way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WVA). It is also implying that someone should directly ask him so he can't "skate by".

3) civil service jobs are not supposed to involve discrimination based on religious preferences and attempts to exploit bigotry by national political organizations is deeply unethical.
This was one of the biggest level-ups in my own personal cooking, realizing that salting (and to a much lesser extent peppering) to taste makes or breaks the dish. Most home cooks I know will skip that step out of ignorance or health concerns, not realizing that it will make the dish taste awful.

Why do you enjoy simple restaurant dishes (including salads) much more than your home-cooked equivalents? Salt.
> Trump offers us a lesson...

I hate to be the check your privileged type, but I can't imagine hearing that from any type of minority person. Sure, if you are an upper middle class white guy, like most of us here, the idea of sending a lesson might be attractive. But that lesson isn't worth sacrifices to the rights of women, LGBT people, Muslims, African Americans, and everyone else that would be hurt be a Trump presidency.
Well, this theory explains the appeal of a hot fudge brownie sundae. A warm brownie and cold vanilla ice cream, individually are both pretty good, but combining them becomes hypnotic.

As long as you eat it before the ice cream melts and the brownie gets cold.

I'm going to disagree on that. Every day I wish I could intermix textual and pictorial representations of logic in the programming I do. In particular, any series of computations that can be represented as a directed graph, e.g. a streaming data workflow, or state machine, is much more easily understood pictorially than textually.

The flowchart and decision tree exist for a reason to describe algorithms.

> Don't focus on woman but on your dreams, if one can manage to take control over those things, woman will come naturally.

It's about order. So many people are so much obsessed with dating and woman that they lose focus on the really important things.

HTTP mock for Golang: record and replay HTTP interactions for offline testing
I haven't used kube in production yet.

However, I'm using mesos, marathon and chronos to manage a production environment with service discovery glue based on Route53.

Using Docker to ship an application to a well configured environment is just a delight, the amount of configuration needed is absolutely minimal.

However, I think people need to realize that it's "easy" if your services are not talking to each other and dependent on one another in a way. If service X is using service Y directly (via HTTP), it gets a bit more challenging.

The way I like to configure micro-service is based on messaging so you send a message to a queue and multiple satellite services can consume that message and do stuff with it.

If your services are dependent on one another, the configuration gets trickier and the maintenance gets a bit harder.

Good job by Box also contributing back to the core of Kube based on what they needed, based on it getting merged I am guessing other people will find it useful as well.

PROJECTS !

You should embark on side projects. They will teach you so much more than school ever will, and they will reward you in a way that nothing else really can. If your projects can make money too, then that's icing on the cake. You will be free.

I'm 25 years old with no degree, taught myself to code for the past 2 years and got turned down for thousands of developer jobs. I ended up working in a factory doing curtain assembly, and selling websites door-to-door after work, until last month, where the first day I decide to go back to sports, I tear my meniscus.

Thankfully, healthcare in Canada is free. However, with 250$ to my name at the time of surgery, the future was looking really, really dark. Can't work, and can't do door-to-door sales. Mother Nature has deadly accuracy with those curveballs.

In the hospital bed, I'm having an existential debate of what to do with my life (in the immediate future). I can sell my Macbook to stay afloat, but that means that I can't build iOS apps anymore. I can ask my brother for money, but he's just about the biggest asshole ever to have roamed the planet and we have a trash relationship. After a lot of tears and self-pity, and telling my life story to the nurse, I decide I'm going to throw life a curveball of my own and invest all I have in a new e-commerce venture.

So I set up a quick WooCommerce site selling Pokemon Go apparel and blew 200$ of my 250$ on FB and Instagram ads, and believe it or not, within 3 days, I nailed my first sale, and got approached by 2 Pokemon influencers to sell to their following.

I'm now making about 2 sales a day, which amounts to 30-35$. It's peanuts, but I've survived on less, and honestly, stuck in bed with a full zimmer brace, super high on painkillers, 10 full minutes to do a washroom trip and I am happier than I have ever been in my entire life. I'm trapped in bed for the next month, but I have never felt more free. Maybe with this, I don't even have to go to work again.

So that's my two cents, for your two cents. Find a project with potential and work on it. It doesn't have to bring money, it may be learning to play Californication on the guitar or implementing a hashing algorithm, but as long as it's something you enjoy and makes you grow, this is IMHO what life is all about.

> Vermonters seem resistant to change, no matter what.

Vermont was the first state to adopt same sex marriage by statute without a court-issued mandate, so I think "resistant to change" and "like things just the way they have always been" seems likely to be an overly simplistic view of their culture.
Actually, I was referring more to the recipient side, not the LinkedIn user side.

I don't really see a big difference between someone selling their personal address book to LinkedIn and someone supplying it automatically. In both instances, both parties benefit (the user with connections or money, and LinkedIn with new user leads), and the recipients end up with unsolicited email.

Using an address book to locate existing users and present them an option to connect is one thing. Using that address book to market to unknown people through their email addresses is clearly spam.
"Do you have proof of that so called elitism?"

They get into holy wars, break stuff, and take action regularly. So there goes three reasons. What they will do is call people idiots or lazy if they complain about poor UX. Or remind them how you only do (arcane steps here) to accomplish the task so why the fuss?

It's hard to absolutely prove elitism over all other things that go on in a person's head. However, that kind of behavior resembles elitism. Hell, many such people even made memes like "Elitist Linux Asshat" to rub others' noses in it. Starts to get harder to deny their ego and aire of superiority is involved at that point.
Not everything needs to be highly available. Using docker does not mean that you are using it in a highly available environment. Plenty of things I run in docker containers can be down for a few hours every night to run backups.
It's also how they do it in Montreal and parts of Europe. Check out "Avenue de Chateaubriand, Montréal, Québec H2S 2N8, Canada" . They even have alleys for pairing and the bins so those don't have to sit out on the street (there is also street parking in some areas).

Dionysios is the greek god for among other things, wine. He's been divinised for bringing wine to greece. It was invented in the northern caucasus 6 thousand years ago. If you ever read any classical literature or antique philosophy, you'll have a reference for how wine was consumed in the antiquity. And if you want to see how much the antiques lived, see Diogenes Laerteos.
> First check if you treat yourself like a machine or an animal, that needs maintenance. You can search for similar threads here, you will always find the typical answers: Enough sleep? Good food? Exercise? Social interaction?

I've been exploring an alternative solution.

Currently playing around with the idea of a React app for building React apps.

Basically, it's an admin for specifying routes, models, components, database schemas, views, stores, reducers, etc. They are defined declaratively and serialized. Then can be feed to either a build step or a bootstrap that can load create the app dynamically.

Each type of thing that can be edited has its own dedicated UX.

Not much built yet but I'd be curious if anyone else has similar ideas / solutions.

For stateful containers that need access to a shared folder you can also use a shared file system such as GlusterFS (http://www.gluster.com), EFS (https://aws.amazon.com), or ObjectiveFS (https://objectivefs.com). This keeps your state in one location and all your containers can access it through the regular file system interface, i.e. you can start using it before you have rewritten everything to be cloud native.
Pro 5000s Software Is a SCAM Honest Review
> The study, published in the scientific journal Addiction, concludes that there is more than simply a link or statistical association between alcohol and cancer that could be explained by something else.

This isn't published to any of the major health journals, rather it's been published in the journal Addiction which probably doesn't have the most balanced view on the role of alcohol in society.
Except GNU has a Code of Conduct talking about considerate and respectful.

Whatever you think of COCs, they might be hard to take seriously if it's "be considerate or respectful, unless you have both a large following and were kicked off Twitter for what largely amounts to abusive and hate-speech like behavior, then we'll actively court you to come to our network!"

Some minecraft servers used to do this. The "griefer" would see blocks being destroyed and placed, but their actions would have no effect on the server. Eventually they would get bored and leave on their own. It was hilarious too.

I think current anti-cheat tool suck. Cheaters are usually obvious, sometimes blatantly flying around, or performing inhuman actions. Simple machine learning should be able to detect cheats with high accuracy.
"[...] so why are we having a serious conversation about grooming children to become software developers before they’ve even gone to middle school?"

For the same reason we groom children to become mathematicians, scientists, readers, writers, historians, musicians, actors, etc. before middle school. Project Bloks grooms your child to be a Software Developer about as much as their first grade teacher grooms them to be a Quantitative Analyst.

Look at the final trend chart

780ti > 980 = ~15% increase
780 > 780ti = ~12% increase
680 (potentially should've used the 690 as a reference even tho it was a dGPU card but it was the) > 780 = ~27 increase.

For the most part in generation that there wasn't a near ~2 year gap, and in generations where there wasn't a huge change in GPU memory type or a major architecture change (like dropping the hardware scheduler in Fermi for Kepler in order to save silicon space for things that actually matter(ed) for game at the time) there isn't a 50% increase gen to gen.
15-20% increase gen to gen with comparable price point cards (nvidia has been making it harder now by charging 150-200$ more per card and effectively bumping a price point lately) is what you should be expecting.

A flagged story isn't necessarily "spam". That's not what flagging means. Far more commonly, for stories that briefly kiss the front page and then vanish, they're simply off-topic for the site.

That's probably because everyone knows how to vote, and so people who don't understand the guidelines vote off-topic stuff up. The people who flag stories tend to be more acquainted with the guidelines, and also always a step behind the upvoters.

So you want to write HTML for a living? Ok, that's cool. But things have moved on a bit since then.

If I get you correctly then I used to be like you. "Eww, javascript". Then I was forced to use Ember for a project where I work and it is amazing, nothing that the app does could even remotely be done with HTML or even a bunch of jQuery spaghetti.
