Nah, the second derivative of the scale factor in the second Friedmann equation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations?oldformat=...) is still determined by energy-density (rho) and pressure (p). "p", pressure, is equal to w \rho c^2, where w is a small negative number close to 0 (about -1/3 is a good fit for observation).

Galaxies stars and atoms won't be ripped apart; instead you'll get these and structures mostly collapsing into supermassive black holes which occupy their own Hubble volumes (stray ejected stars and gas molecules will also eventually occupy their own Hubble volumes too); the difference is in the features of the cosmological horizon as observed by someone at a large distance from such a black hole and stationary with respect to it. The different horizon recession from the accelerating expansion vs the previous non-accelerating expansion produces a different (higher) temperature in the thermal bath from the cosmological horizon, and has implications for the ultimate fate of these future supermassive (and very cold) black holes.

The paper your link points to is at http://arxiv.org/abs/1409.4918 and at equation (13) recovers p = wc^2\rho above (note that they set c to unity deliberately, which is common in physical cosmology) and on the next page they discuss their solutions for w = -1 and w = -2/3, both of which are far from the evidence we have for the density/pressure conversion constant and are only further from zero because their viscous fluid model requires that (unlike the perfect fluid in the Friedman-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker model of the standard cosmology).

(Their motivation is to unify the dark sector by reducing it to dark matter with bulk viscosity, on the logic that bulk viscosity implies negative pressure. This has been tried by others before and since, and usually results in inconsistencies that their paper hopes to avoid. The standard cosmology keeps dark matter and dark energy separate, with dark matter likely having positive pressure and it definitely dilutes away with the expansion of the universe like other matter and radiation, while dark energy is a small negative pressure everywhere that does not dilute away with the expansion of the universe.)

I tend to take it for granted that third party services can and will delete everything you post whenever it suits them, or even just because whoever is running the data management is inept or uninterested in a sane backup policy.
But that might just be because I "grew up", digitally speaking, in the era of self-hosted websites and blogs, of FTP and local development pushed remotely.
It does seem that the entire system is now designed around always trusting some other service for managing our data, so I wonder if this will continually influence users to trust an illusion, and a far harder to understand mental model of what is "mine", "ours" and "yours".
Maybe it'll all course correct itself, with services baking into their models personalized data recovery and management, or at least a more sane model of data ownership.
But I do think it will take more issues like this, instead of just the "death by a thousand cuts" that is happening now when your spouse wipes out all of your playlists because they didn't know they affected every device, or not knowing which photos have been synced and which haven't because your cloud storage is full.

But how will this work in, say, LA or New York? A friend of mine in NYC had a lovely wife who divorced him after discovering his serial philandering. He said there were young women throwing themselves at him all the time. (He's wealthy.)

The stigma isn't as strong here as it is in China, either. And he ended up paying for the divorce.

On the other hand, she's not as well off financially as she had been. It was emotionally difficult for her as well, but the root of that problem was deeper than the symptom.

Not sure that this service would work here.

Again, something that is solvable with smart regulation. E.g. some rules apply only for businesses with more than $100k turnover, or $1M or whatever. Alternatively, your customers need to sign a statement that they will pay out of pocket for any medical costs resulting from eating your sugar (similar to "sophisticated investors" and hedge funds).

But then again, as I said above, I see business as a privilege, not a right. After all, you could also say that your individual liberty is being infringed by taxes - but you can always move to a deserted island, stop using the services provided by the governments, and pay no tax!
In addition to all of what the other poster replying to you correctly pointed out, I'd just point out that the accelerating expansion of the universe, being somewhat mysterious, is also not predictable. Should such a force end, or reverse, the future becomes very uncertain.

In general though, if cosmic recession continues, it's only an issue for structures on the scale of galactic cluster and larger, when the isotropic and homogeneous nature of the universe dominate.
Throwaway because I don't like posting about medical conditions.

So, I'm a diabetic. It means I have to check everything and you know, 5-15g of extra sugar isn't something I can't just take into account I have to at least know.

As such I'm always surprised at all the things that 'happen to' have 50% by weight in sugar (HFCS etc). I know that stuff like stevia exist @ 0 calories, and may taste a little bit worse but in my case it's something delicious with stevia or maybe no dessert - then it's fine if it's not perfect, you know?

So what I don't get is since taste-wise cutting to 0 sugars and all stevia retains like 70%-80% of taste (with the exception of when the sugar is an important structural ingredient as with a meringue), why basically every product doesn't come in stevia and normal versions?

Like, honey nut cheerios? Fine, stevia or artificial sugar version / normal version. They don't even need price parity or anything like that.

I just don't get it.

Coke and Pepsi do this right. I drink lots and lots of coke!

always diet or zero, or pepsi max.

I don't really get why something like, say, breakfast cereals, don't have "coke zero / diet coke" versions where it's artificial. I know it can be done, since I can do that myself from a box of artificial sweetener. It can't be a lack of demand - since by that metric, diet coke wouldn't exist.

so I just don't get it. Take something like peanut butter, super healthy except for the added sugar which means I can't just eat it with abandon. Why wouldn't Jif peanut butter make a crappy version with artificial sugar. It's sugar-Jif or nothing for me (and many other people.) Same goes for like every second item in a store.

why aren't there stevia Oreos, etc. these things just don't exist. why not? I can't eat oreos but I'd eat the shit out of stevia oreos and so would a ton of people.

a lot of people just wanna eat sweets. they don't care just how good it tastes. You ever seen a fat guy turn down a donut because it didn't look good? Nobody cares about the taste... it's the taste of sweetness that we crave. . . .

there must be a conspiracy of some kind here too. (I say this tongue in cheek, I don't actually see any conspiracy I'd just like to understand it better.)

Yes, this is a big problem, but if you're waiting for the government to solve this problem, you'll wait a long time.

The humanity have to build new organizations that help the masses in picking up the right choices and we need new corporations that we can trust. Just have a look at the open source movement, where even commercial companies are opening their source code to improve to build up on trust. We need corporations that put labels of ingredients on their products. But if we force companies to do so, we're destroying the start up resources a new company needs to grow.

Well, I would agree with you if the DNC leaks were accompanied by equivalent GOP leaks.
Personally, I didn't find the DNC leaks that damning to be honest - I don't think the same standards of impartiality that you need for the general election need to be applied to how parties select their candidates. However if other people do find them damning it is information they should have.
The rub is that I would be very surprised if there weren't similarly shenanigans from the GOP side, and if that's the case then if you let foreign actors select what gets leaked that's giving them a lot of power...
The key paragraph, in my opinion:

"One response to marital infidelity is divorce. But divorce can be costly, especially for women. Aside from the social stigma that falls more heavily on women, family property and finances in China tend to be registered in the husband's name. A divorced woman can find herself homeless, adding to the pressure of taking measures to save the marriage."
Each act of "assimilation" and order as you put it, by definition requires energy and produces heat.
Wow. I feel like the only person who doesn't especially like static typing, traditional OO, and typescript.

Without a government, there can be no corporations. A corporation is a creature of regulation. You can already operate a business under fewer regulations by forming a sole proprietorship or general partnership. Why don't people do that? The entitlement of liability limitation afforded by corporate regulation is what makes it possible for businesses to be bigger than a certain nominal size. Something like the "sugar industry" might not exist at all without that entitlement.

Likewise, if the individuals forming a sugar industry marketing or lobbying entity could be held personally liable for the actions of that entity, it probably wouldn't exist. That's the closest thing I can think of to a concept of business law in a libertarian sense: If you own a certain fraction of General Motors, then you're responsible for a fraction of GM's debts, if those debts exceed its assets.

I just heard this on NPR this morning: http://www.npr.org/2016/07/30/488027731/west-bank-water-cris...

The story said that the pipes Israel is complaining about had been recently installed by the Americans and worked fine. The real issue is that Israel wants quid pro quo construction of water resources for unlawful settlements.

So, Israel is holding back water because Palestinians refuse to give up any more of their land to "settlers". Who said politics had triumphed?

EDIT: And from your linked article, the real issue gets a single mention "The Palestinian refusal to sit down with Israelis, means that the committee has not met for over five years." The article implies a broken pipe keeps everyone from getting water, when it's really a refusal to give any more land to illegal settlements.
Will be very interesting to see if the UK economy can actually recover at all with all of the acquisitions. There's a fire sale of sorts at the moment on UK's most valuable companies. The promises of the current prime minister to prevent the few big employers in the UK from being purchased have pretty much evaporated...such is the way of the snake oil salesman. The free flow of super smart labor in the schengen zone was a net positive for most UK companies, and for the foreign labor that contributed to the UK economy. The trick, as Hawking says is to ensure the fruits of the globalized economy is shared by all. In the US we have a huge issue with churn. Industries like coal will never return, however people like Trump promise that they will. What we need is a cheaper university system that provides a means for the children of those former coal miners to move onto something else (or even the miners themselves). Right now, if you're an out of work person in an industry that is gone...there's no way to move on. You can take out massive loans, or join the military to get free education. Those are about the only two practical options for most people (I for one took the military option), and that's not good enough. The managed capitalism that we've developed works well, we just have to remember that the government's role is to manage the economy...not to run the economy. Government should foster an environment for everyone to succeed, not just those who have a more favorable starting place in life (like Trump). Right now people are upset, mad, and often without hope. While I (and just about any other person with critical thinking skills) can punch holes in just about every one of Trumps lightweight arguments, these holes are ignored by the masses because they want to believe that there is a magic cure to what ails them. Unfortunately, like the magic pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, Trump's magical cure doesn't exist...just as the pot of gold that sold brexit will never be found.
My impression is that most forms of libertarianism would support the ability to take legal action against firms for dishonest marketing.
Honestly, given the current hype it's probably an employer's market right now (as another poster mentioned), so your best chance is probably getting into a position where your managers actually trust you to make sound technical decisions and changing from $LANGUAGE to Haskell (or starting a new project in Haskell). Obviously, if you're changing an existing project you'll want to do this gradually, so any microservice-based architecture you can get in place probably helps the process along.

Of course, the problem with Haskell being what it is, you'll probably end up with very few bugs to squash, so you may end up programming yourself out of a job :). Hopefully the area that you work in isn't quite that static such that requirements will change from time to time...

What's the point though? Wouldn't the husband just end up with a different mistress?

I mean they do not resolve the problems in the marriage that led to the situation. Do these women believe it's a one time thing? or that that specific mistress is special?

it's interesting that in the west, divorce usually means the women gets half the networth of the man, in which case, it's the man who normally don't want to divorce.

Yeah, desalination also occurs in Arab countries in the gulf that have tons of money to throw at it. Palestinians could establish some of this infrastructure if they had a shot.

But it would get bombed if it was built after not too long, like all good things. And that's assuming Israel let the Palestinians build one in the first place.

That was what I found so strange about the wife's relief in the article. The husband probably has other employees.
I doubt it would work in the US, too. Not only is the stigma against divorce now almost non-existent, we have no-fault divorce law. And people marry and divorce at a higher rate than ever before. It's easy come, easy go. And I would say that our system has a lot of bad effects, too: broken homes and single-parent childrearing are crippling our social structure.
> Not eating for 3 days a month does not seem especially healthy.

I did this on and off (stopped eating Sunday after dinner and didn't eat until Wednesday or later in the week).

I was only 19 and 20 at the time and did it because I was bored but I remember feeling significantly more productive. Pretty sure I was but not sure if it had to do with a clearer head or because I suddenly had 1-2 extra undisturbed hours when everyone else was busy eating.

Stopped after an incident where I tried lifting weights after 2 days on a very restrictive diet and half a day with no calories at all. 15 minutes in I started seriously shivering and I never picked it up later although I am seriously tempted from time to time.

I believe that people should keep track of what food they eat and depending how they feel, modify their particular diets accordingly.

My wife and I have reduced the processed foods we eat, and try to avoid sugar, and it seems to have had a great effect on how we feel and general health.

If you are a skeptic that is fine, skepticism should be the default, but I would ask you to try staying away from processed foods and sugar for a few weeks and see if you feel better. It is an easy experiment to do.

I was actually thinking of things like local definitions not needing type signatures. It's really easy to underestimate how much more fluent this makes the language feel. (Think of functions defined in 'where' clauses and things like that. Entirely subjective, but there's this feeling of fluency when you don't need any type signatures for non-top-level things.)

I don't think Scala is ever going to move away from requiring all functions to have an explicit type signature.

> - Even if you are not a fan of OO (I'm not), I still love that I get a great module system for free. Haskell's module system is a completely mess.

Not so much "mess", I think... more completely underpowered? It's really just a namespacing mechanism.

Hopefully we'll get Backpack at some point...

> - Scala-Native already supports all kinds of TCO, including mutually recursive ones.

Really? This is surprising to me, but perhaps they've gone with the Pascal(?) calling convention so as to make it trivially supportable?

It's still sad it can't be relied upon per language spec. :/
Your approach will lead you to having an incorrect take quite often. You should reconsider unless you enjoy being wrong for no particular reason.
