Lying about your previous salary may open you up to a lawsuit. It's sort of a grey area, but some consider it fraud.

> when I still helped out family I found often I would get blamed for things not working right.

I used to get this from family too but it's been a lot better in recent years. My advice: install the most recent version of their favorite OS and let them stick with it until the end of extended support (so 10 years or so). My people still have Windows 7, are perfectly fine with it and know what to click and what not to click.
How long did it take to sell 1M iPhones? 100M? 500M?

Uh I went from 305lb to 205lb in a year and at my lowest was around 17% body fat at 205lb 6'1" -- I really think you're overthinking this, it's very possible to look what he looks like in that last photo by just being consistent and caring about what you do.
this answer more funny :)
Honestly, I'd extend this to any serious exercise. I'm not a big fan of weights, but I run a lot and it's profoundly changed things. All the research into +20% cognitive, getting tired a lot less, everything you've read that's been peer reviewed has proven to be true in my case.

The before and after is basically me being completely pumped and half-dead after my 8h vs. me taking a happy stroll out the office at the end of the day, going for a run and still putting in 4 more hours of whatever else I'm doing, easily. With 0 signs of burnout, when I was skirting the line for years before I started cardio.

So exercise, can't stress that one enough.
I know of no governmental student loan that is interest free. In addition, the options for flexible payments are limited, and generally only available to those of lower income brackets. There are payment deferral options, but interest accrues and capitalizes during deferral. Terms are comparable to that of a house mortgage, but unlike a mortgage, you can't get out of the loan if it turns out it was a bad idea. You are stuck with that debt for the next 20 years without recourse.

It's entirely possible to graduate from college, go to work, lose your job in an economic downturn, put your student loans in deferral (because sorry, you made more than $40,000 last year, you don't qualify for flexible payments) while you try to get back on your feet, only to discover that when your deferral ends because you have a job again, the accrued interest has capitalized a few times, and now you owe more principal than what you originally borrowed. The new bigger minimum monthly payment eats up a comparable portion of your new bigger salary, and you're back where you started.

You can use use OpenDNS and turn on filtering of the "Advertising" category. https://community.opendns.com/domaintagging/?category_id=53

Protip: Doing this at the DNS and not the browser level leads to lots of brokenness. (Like when you try to sign into an app on your Roku/FireTV and it hangs on a Google Analytics event).
Yes, Hyper-V's Desktop UX for VMs is still in a really sad state compared to the competition, even for Windows guests, let alone Linux ones. I have it enabled to use Docker for Windows by default, but very often still need to reboot to disable it and use VMware Workstation for any serious work inside VMs, for all the reasons you listed, plus the awesome multi-monitor support in Workstation.

Microsoft really needs to get its act together.
Plus, for the first time she cries at going debt free, and now has decided to avoid debt entirely, even for purchasing a house. She will be buying a house soon, without loan.
Seems like (almost) every single German university is part of the DFN and has their own CA. I worked for a hospital for a while that was also part of it. You'd think it would be a nice idea to get rid of bureaucracy and make it easier to obtain certificates but no, our boss had to appear in person at one of the offices. (Yes the hospital has several physical offices for its own CA).

Why wouldn't funding pharmaceutical research completely from taxes just lead to it being just as chronically underfunded as infrastructure currently is? And just as earmark-driven?
I'm sure a lot of the entrepreneur folks on here have much more impressive stories: "I made my first million at age 23" and the like.
Does that mean that, instead of paying attention to what someone is saying, you are standing, meditating?
What about all the people who actually enjoy eating out? It's fun, it's social, you potentially get to go somewhere new, you get out of the house, etc.

Cooking can be fun too. But you're definitely making a false dichotomy here.
you seem to have deliberately misinterpreted what was said. there was not claim of curing cancer. the claim was that fasting is thought (by some researchers) to be potentially effective in preventing cancer from arising in the first place.

also, have you ever tried meditation?

I've found that logging off of Twitter and Facebook make a difference for me. My password is in a password manager so that adds yet another step. Anything to break the "muscle memory" and habit of reaching for a procrastination fix.
Someone in the family does this whenever I see him. Many ideas have some potential, given you put in enough hours of course ("1% inspiration, 99% perspiration"). So I respond positively and tell him I'm open for helping with it, never to hear about it again. Next birthday party we meet again and there's a new topic.

Lesson learned: just because you're family (or friends) won't mean they're going to uphold their end. Let them work for it first.
I wonder how many of these answers are real and how many is something people want/value but don't actually do in reality. But then again, a fake story from one person that makes two people change in a good direction is better than truth, no?
Let me rephrase - why would they lose part of their money - much money? I can't see what would be their profit on releasing UE under open source license. Moreover, what would be profit of others except the right of copying their code?
There are non-monetary rewards. To work as a security consultant, you have to be ... a consultant.

Being able to sit at home (or wherever), have no boss, no schedule commitments, and no constraints on my dress, no need to be social / politic sounds pretty sweet to me.
In my life I was always pretty worried about money. I put myself through school, worked full time etc etc. I didn't really splurge on anything and I just sort of lived a simple life. At this point I guess I've managed to amass enough value by having a house and a job that pays better than the jobs I worked back then, and wowee I'm not under water anymore.

I don't really live my life any differently. But I do have that feeling where I could spend a few grand on something that was meaningful to me and not really be all that bothered by it.

But isn't that just the result of playing your cards kind of right and living long enough? It just seems like there is a certain point in your life where the math of it starts working out in your favour.

Then again I guess I know people about my age who struggle a bit more...

Actually, I think a lot of people would consider that a significant improvement.

By my calculation I get $74k filing single or $78k filing jointly, using a marginal rate of 9% (California) and 25% (Federal), but that's if you're married. It pays to be married.

Sales tax won't substantially change things because housing is usually the biggest expense and isn't taxed. And if you're saving and being frugal you're not buying many taxable items.

People tend to overestimate their tax burden. The difference between your gut figure and the actual numbers is almost 10% of income, which is a huge difference.
At the outset, there were a few devices with generally consistent screen sizes ... the compaq ipaq was very popular for instance .. so not too bad.
Yoga. I sit at a desk all day. I've been in a couple car wrecks. I had to do something about my back. Now I have a regular practice and I regret not picking it up MUCH earlier in my life.
Sadly enough that is considered "advice" these days. Compare this to the girl who tried to live in SanFran as a low paying worker and got fired from her job for complaining about it.

Mentality is everything.
Both of you: any thoughts about this article?

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/at-amazon-employees-treat-t...

Particularly this little vignette:

Even more alarming was the bathroom culture. I can only speak to the men’s room, most of which each had two urinals and two stalls. I come from a background where a bathroom is a place where you do a certain kind of business, in silence, and you leave. At Amazon, the men’s room is an extension of the office. People chitchat about work in the bathroom, as if it is just another meeting room where you can piss everywhere.

The most horrifying moment of my employment at Amazon was the time I was using the toilet and a coworker began talking from the stall next to me. He asked me why I had not responded to his very pressing email. I closed my eyes and pretended this wasn’t happening. What email could be so important that it could not wait five minutes for me to use the bathroom? He began tapping on the wall between our stalls, asking why I wouldn’t respond, as if inter-stall conversation should be a totally normal, not disgusting means of communication.

He became more specific about what he needed—referencing a project I’d never heard of, nor would I ever have involvement in—and I realized he had misidentified me from my shoes. (Many brown dress shoes look alike, apparently.) We both exited our stalls around the same time, and he realized his mistake. He didn’t apologize, only explained that he thought I was someone else. As we washed our hands, he just laughed, and I vowed I would never use the stalls on that floor again.

Is the guy lying? Just imagining things?

Please share your thoughts.
Blues dancing. It's a partnered social dance that focuses on musicality, improvisation, connection, and quality of movement. It's done wonders for my confidence and my sense of being "embodied". Like, I know I used to walk around without ever noticing where my hips are, and that just seems really really weird now.
Thinking about and trying to fix my posture. Sitting in a chair to much causes something called "anterior pelvic tilt", almost everyone in the modern world suffers from it more or less.

Writing a diary with the stuff that i have on my mind, it is easy to forget who you where before, and why you changed.
Cars stopping and then starting again costs time, money, fuel, wear & tear, pollution, etc. It's far from an efficient solution.
The Melancholy of Infinite Space (1996)
2-3 times takes a toll almost everywhere, I am a grad student in Iowa where costs are not that high. Eating out more than once a week seems like a luxury to me.
Network-wide is the way to go. Hosts files can be tricky to set up on phones and tablets.

I run dnsmasq on a pi as my ISP router is pretty limited. You can't even change the DNS servers, so the pi has to do DHCP too.

I use it to block other things like fixed banner overlays. With caching you can get it to work when you go off WiFi too [0].

Not sure I'd use Google's DNS servers though. Your ISP's are probably better for both speed and privacy. You can test the speed with an old Google project called namebench [1].

Nature's on his side too. I do believe if you are prone to gaining a lot of fat you can turn that tendency into muscle instead.
My experience in finance was that 50% of quants (especially physics PhDs from the 90s, when all the Cold War-era funding dried up) were failed academics.

Most of the rest were PhDs jumping straight to industry to avoid chasing tenure for years.
Surprised they didn't mention Red Wing. The chorus/B-part is played over and over and over again around here.

I don't feel bad at all, and in computer science systems conferences, there's usually a mix of people from industry and academia. (Both attending and even on the program committee.) I think a good mix is healthy for such conferences. Personally, I do both research and development, and I want to be able to publish the research I do.
In the article, she said eating out was a luxury, "two to three times a week."

I make great money myself and am married, and I don't even eat out that much.
in fact there's a huge amount of research on this topic. try googling it.
I'll have to add value investing. I listen to all of them on 1.5 or 2x, though sometimes I have to slow the Brits down to understand!
We already have private and government financed pharma research. US alone spends around $26.4 billion each year, which do not include university founded research (that goes under education) and the other smaller incentive systems for pharma research by organizations such as FDA (which is a third recipient of government founds). Regardless, no drugs is provided at cost. Government founded research is also the primary ground work for which private pharma use, and private pharma would unlikely survive today without that core research being done for free.

But maybe government could be more return-on-investment friendly for the citizens who pay taxes and re-route some of that research founds into actually developing the end user drugs. At the same time they could create legal barriers for private pharma from using any tax funded pharma research. That would create some loud screams from the pharma lobby, and we would finally be able to say how valuable the patent supported pharma industry really is. I doubt however we will ever see such day, and patent supported pharma will continue to claim the glory while tax payers silently pays double for medicine. First through taxes and then a second time through the expensive drug prices in the pharmacy.
> I'm especially interested in fasting. Not eating for 3 days a month does not seem especially healthy.

I'm surprised many believe this. It seems self-evident that our bodies are well adapted to periods of starvation. Any biology that wasn't so adapted would have been out-competed by those did.

The link to cancer is typically due to free radical theories causing genetic damage, and caloric restriction is being employed to help cancer patients last longer.
For STEM academes: The difference is that professional artists have long been aware of the "starving artist" stereotype aren't strongly sold a nationalism-backed narrative that "we need more scientists", followed by unsustainable, hierarchical organizational structures. Moreover, science typically holds itself to a different sort of accountability (empirical results and uncompromising honesty) as a professional ideal, whereas the actual nature of the beast, where funding is drawn to popular ideas and politically connected researchers instead of the most honest and productive.
Yes, I think you are just using a different sense of "based on" than I am. gRPC is based on Stubby in the sense that it is influenced by the design of Stubby and uses the knowledge learned from creating Stubby.
I think your calculation ignored FICA, which is a flat 7.65%.
I don't get it. Uber are offering an extremely good service, one that I'd pay more money for than they're asking. They don't need to be terrible humans to be successful so why do they do it? This seems to be par for the course of them in terms of shady shit they've been accused of or caught doing.
Programming like that leads to websites where using single quotes in a form gets a mysterious error. (They were trying to stop SQL injection in the most user-unfriendly way possible.)

A small distance away from 'ground zero' of the nuclear test sites there is basically zero difference in background radiation from elsewhere in the US in 2016.

Here's some data:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2013/11/10/the-h...

This is from Norway - they were close to the very large and frankly unsafe tests the Russians did. It claims some health-hazard, but then admit that the effective exposure of the population from all that testing was the equivalent of 2 medical x-rays. Not entirely benign, but not a massive health hazard either - and this is back in the 1950's right after the testing was done.

The lingering effects from nuclear testing in SE USA are really, really small and from a health perspective, completely irrelevant.

An airline pilot will be exposed to significantly more radiation than anyone living near the test sites.

I mentioned 'continental testing' because most testing in the US is not 'high yield'. The tests they did out in the Pacific were orders of magnitude greater, and there are almost zero health effects for anyone but the surrounding animals, granted the effects on sea life is not immaterial.

In the grand scheme of things, nuclear tests are a non-starter in terms of public health. Nothing has come of it.

Nuclear energy is a little bit of a different story, but even there there is a lot of hysteria and misinformation.
This kind of thing triggers my crazy buttons: What kind of person goes into debt to get a PhD and then becomes a postdoc?

Why not just leave off with a masters or BS and go off to get a great paying job and do actual work with a livable lifestyle?
They control most of the wealth according to that non-academic report (the report is an advertisement for wealth management services), and I couldn't find an academic study that came up with a similar number. I should also note that the report doesn't say US women possess 51% of the wealth, they just "control" it, whatever that means.

Women do not accumulate wealth at an equal rate to men, one reason is that their salary is much lower (wage gap). A second reason is that most single parents are women and that pushes the wealth distribution for women further down.

In terms of ownership it's closer to 36%.

http://gender.stanford.edu/news/2011/shortchanged-women-and-...

It's especially bad for unmarried women who have about half the wealth of unmarried men. When you take race/ethnicity into account the gap is even wider.

Simply common sense, really.
My problem with Chelsea was leaking a bunch of operational details which is not beneficial to most of us.

My take is that the (vastly) more important issue is whether those actions mean she should be subjected to torture, in the form of her sentence to solitary confinement (and all the humiliations she has endured as a result).

Which, being a civilized nation as we are, of course they don't. The only recourse at this point is to offer her not just an (immediate) pardon -- but a formal apology, and a hefty compensation for the ordeal to which she has been subjected in our names.

Along with a firm promise never to do such ghastly things to our citizens ever again.

Me too, good point. However I understand that some explosives degrade in such a way that they get more unstable rather than less, so the problems may remain.
I use the app Headspace. I've tried a lot of different things, and Headspace is the one that "clicked" for me. I don't really know how much of this is because of Headspace, and how much is just because the 5th try is a charm. The narrator is really helpful, and addresses concerns of mine ("is it ok to scratch this itch?") in the audio for the sessions. Some people have complained that this is distracting, but I've found it helpful. It also has an "unguided" option too, but if you only use that, it'd be cheaper to use a stopwatch app.

I'd suggest trying several different ones (probably not at the same time) until you find what works best for you. And give it a longer chance than you might be willing to at first.

It took me more than 30 days to get to where I could spend two minutes focusing on my breath and feelings and feel better and more in control. It's been a little over 2 months now, and I'm starting to notice negative or anxious thoughts as they happen or spiral into more and more negative thoughts.

Just yesterday at our company's quarterly meeting I had to speak briefly and one of my points was about an error caused by a client that delayed my team's project. I was getting very nervous, even though I knew 1) It wasn't my or anyone else in the company's fault. 2) This isn't new news, it's already been solved and management has known about it since the start. 3) All the other teams have some equivalent detail they're sharing, nobody is perfect.

Yet I was still panicking. I always get unnecessarily anxious in situations like that. Yesterday was the first time in my life I realized that rationalizing like that doesn't work, I was still expending the same energy and stress as if I were panicking. But now I'm stressing about those excuses, instead of stressing about the speech. So I just did my best to focus on my breath and whomever was currently speaking. It wasn't the same as trying to make my brain shut up, it was still furiously panicking and rationalizing, but I didn't have to listen and the thoughts didn't have to affect me.

Best of luck!

How is this different from Postman? It seems very similar, but Postman is free and has other really awesome features (like being able to export tests and run them in the command line).
