I trade this market professionally, and it is quite easy to massively elevate your stock price if you control most of the floating shares. These sorts of price run-ups happen very regularly, but, to their credit, the SEC normally stops them before they get this far. They are typically able to halt trading by the time it's worth a billion dollars, two tops. :/

The basic flaw in this is that there's no straightforward heritability for homosexuality, so regardless of the evolutionary pressures, it's not something that could be obviously 'selected against'.

Homosexual men throughout history did reproduce, though. In many ancient societies, norms were such that you had kids (if you survived long enough), and what you did with other men on the side was more or less your business. The Romans had a lot of gay sex, but didn't have a concept of a gay man, rather an effeminate man (who liked to bottom). So homosexuality is not really a puzzle that begs for a solution. The reality is, that the reasons we have sex do not have much to do with reproduction. Western society is still rather prudish about acknowledging this.

It's worth pointing out also, men generally pass their genes on a whole lot less than women do. Genetic evidence shows women were twice as likely as men to reproduce. So it's not like being heterosexual meant you'd have kids, being homosexual meant you wouldn't. I guess monogamy would reduce the disparity between men and women here.

Technically there's nothing that forbids doing it. It would essentially boil down to port the Python interpreter / VM / Cython (pick your flavour) to run on the naked metal (hard, but not impossible; probably easier done with Lua), which would mostly involve memory management and all the low level stuff to get it running in the first place. Besides all the really hard stuff one had to solve, ironically mapping a pointer-less / array-less language like Python to a page-wise memory model would be rather easy; as soon as one does not have to care about that things like lists and dicts are contiguous in address space suddenly a lot of constraints you'd have in the Linux kernel would vanish.

>Our natural instincts are not to die after we reproduce.

Well of course not, since we might be reproduce more if we stay alive longer. And we do start to die around the time we start to lose fertility, which isn't an "instinct" to die, but clearly our bodies are not adapted to live longer.

From the article:

I would like to dispel this notion once and for all: you do not have to have a special talent to work on the kernel unless you count dogged persistence and patience as a talent.

He is correct, but in a completely wrong way: this is why GNU/Linux has never been, and never will be anything more than just "good enough" (and there goes my karma in a retaliatory action, but someone had to write it).

Let me clarify what I mean by that: an operating system's kernel is the last stop in computer science, and requires formal education, lots and lots of formal education, coupled with lots and lots of experience, coupled with the most important ingredient, insight.

That's why when one compares a kernel like Linux and illumos, illumos is light years more sophisticated: it was done by professionals, with formal education, and with deep, deep insights into the thorniest of issues in production at the largest companies in the world. Now, you could argue Linux has this type of exposure now, but what it does not have is 25+ years head start in this exposure, and it does not have the people. And that makes all the difference in the world.

And when you read ideas like you do not have to have a special talent to work on the kernel, that kind of mentality speaks volumes of the product. And indeed, Linux is the product of such a mentality.
Enabling it on demand would also allow them to randomize the listening port and generate new authentication tokens more frequently.

Indeed! I'm slightly shocked by the casual implication that our masturbatory world is the same as that of our ancestors -- excluding my Dad, who can indeed use the internet, I think that the argument could be made that I have seen more boobs than nearly all my ancestors put together. Further, access to this infinite-boob parade is trivial, requiring neither the acquisition of a new skin-mag nor spending resources on wining and dining a lady. People have been masturbating since time immemorial, but I don't think it's unreasonable to see the rise of internet porn as a new development. Nor is it unreasonable to cast porn in the role of refined sugar or mindless TV -- an exploitation of our natural drives, a concentration of 'value' impossible on the savannah.

> ("When we feel is time to end" - using "feel" in that phrase is sufficiently peculiar to English that I wouldn't expect it from anyone who thinks in another language and translates in their head more or less mechanically)

This is typical of mandarin chinese; the verbs 觉得 and 感觉 are "feel" in a literal sense, but mean "think (something)".

If one language uses a metaphor, odds are some other languages do too.
(Modern) Russian doesn't even have a verb corresponding to "is", so I'm not convinced that this turn of phrase is a thing that exists outside of American movies.
> Many of the modern ideas about masturbation are also wrong, e.g. that it is 'healthy'. These are merely scientistic attempts to reverse the former shaming and guilt.

Why are they wrong? Could you elaborate?

This forces me to use a single clone. I can't work on multiple features simultaneously in different build dirs.

This is incompatible with path dependencies. When I was working on the YCM goto support for Go I had to rewrite all the imports in godef to be path imports because you can't go build packages with github deps outside of gopath. This rewriting had to be done in each file (and forced us to fork the package).

We wanted to use godef as a local folder because YCM wants to be able to pin to a version, usually via a submodule. `go get <github>` will be affected by silent updates.

Having everything in $GOPATH has the advantage that all your go code is in one place, but it's not much of an advantage because it's not flat -- you have to `cd github.com/<someusername>/<reponame>` whereas my regular `code` folder has a flat structure, with subfolders only for special cases (e.g. projects with multiple linked repos or whatever).

There are tons of disadvantages, which totally overshadow the minor advantage of automatically giving you a `code` folder -- something which is super easy to do without the "help" of GOPATH.

Fortunately a lot of these things get solved by vendoring, glide, and friends. Bare GOPATH is still terrible.

Evolution could explain the placebo effect (2012)
A gene survives and spreads if the gene helps increase the average fitness of the part of the population having the gene.

There is nothing about evolution that requires a gene to benefit any given individual. There are plenty of species where individuals are metaphorically "thrown under the bus" for the survival of genetically similar enough individuals to be worth it.

And for any given individual, a gene that confers high fitness on the population it exists in as a whole can still be disastrous in certain configurations.

An example of that would be the sickle-cell trait, which causes lots of deaths amongst those unlucky enough to get it from both parents, as it leaves them prone to sickle cell anaemia and related problems.

It survives in many regions such as West Africa because while receiving it from both parents cuts an average 20-40 years of your life expectancy in developed countries, "just" having the trait from one parent is a net positive because it makes it a lot less likely you will get malaria, which is a far bigger killer in countries with poor healthcare.

This is the convoluted way of saying that you can't look at the effect on individual survival - there can be convoluted mechanisms that makes a gene that makes your copies less likely to be propagated more fit on average.
Before we see Indians bashup Pakistan and vice-versa in this forum. I come across this question as very naive which would not result healthy discussion.

Several studies have shown that year round school works, especially for minorities, because the home environment provides insufficient stimulation/reinforcement to consolidate and retain the gains made over the school year.

Several studies have shown that minority students actually show gains very similar to non-minority students over the course of the school year. However, the summer vacation provides a double whammy--non-minority students continue to improve during the summer while minority students actually lose a lot of the gains made.

The easiest way to stabilize this is year-round school.
How does this add any value above existing products that do the same?
It's absurd to think we evolved "rightly" either. Also, what about our environment? We clearly didnt evolve with concrete and steel, asphalt and gasoline.

A Django developer doesn't necessarily mean back-end to me. Lot of Django developers mostly work on websites and most of their time is actually spent on form validation, templating, sessions and so on which I would say is more of a front-end.

To really underscore that you are a back-end developer, I would try to concentrate on your Python skills instead of specifically Django:

* Python data structures (lists vs sets, tuples, dictionaries)

* List/dictionary comprehension

* Python 2 vs 3 (unicode, str)

* Decorators, Python "closures"

* Generators

* Modules and packages

Then be prepared to answer questions related to a specific subset of back-end work the job you are applying for entails.

For example, if the job description is you will be building web services consumed by third parties (mobile apps etc), then be prepared to demonstrate good understanding of HTTP, different data interchange formats (JSON, XML), APIs, REST.

Then I'd look at things such as Celery which is a library often used to process tasks from a message queue.

Also tooling around dependencies (virtualenv, pip), be able to explain how to package and deploy Python applications (could be Django apps but that's not important).

And then of course, last but not least, general CS questions about data structures, databases, OOP, design patterns is something you should always be prepared for.

Additional skills in dev ops area / networking are a big plus for back-end work.

The calculator you linked is measuring household income, not individual income. Rerunning your numbers with a calculator that uses individual income [1], I find that the top 1% of individual earners make at least $270k/year and an income of $150k/year would put you just barely in the top 5% of individual earners.

In the UK to be a nanny, childminder or work in a nursery you have specific regulation and qualification required. A babysitter requires nothing, it can and generally is some teenage kid.

The difference with all 3 is where the child go. Nursery has special dedicated facilities to take care of several children, number limited by the number of employee and size. A childminder will take care of 1 to 3 children in her own home. A nanny will come to your home and take care of 1 to 3 of your children.

All 3 are available in full-time ( i.e. working hour full time ) or part-time.

The movie type, stay at home Nannies are "Au Pair". Depending on the qualification ( from foreign student doing a bit of cleaning and getting the kid to and from school to fully qualified nanny ) the price varies enormously. Au Pair is not unusual, Au Pair Nannies is rich people stuff.
My recommendation is to write a polite reply saying why these are a waste of time and why you won't be doing it, and ask them if they are still interested in interviewing.
Things like a small sample size and confounding variable, doesn't in any way invalidate a paper. Especially in fields where collecting data is difficult (only a small number of people have a certain obscure disease for example, or it's practically impossible to isolate one variable from another) those are simply facts of life that you have to deal with. Sometimes you all you can do is say I only managed to find 4 cases of X, but they all had Y. Was not able to control for Z, still I wasn't expecting that and found it kind of interesting. As long as you aren't faking data (like you actually found 12 cases of X but threw out the ones that didn't fit your conclusion), then that is absolutely worth publishing.

It's always worth getting results out there even if they don't/can't live up to statistical certainty one might hope for. Every paper doesn't have to stand on its own and come to some undeniable ground breaking conclusion. Over time you'll hopefully collect enough published data to be able to do some more statistically powerful and useful meta-studies down the road.
"better app" can just be an app with less features, that's more buggy, that's going to be around in ten years. Mom and dad don't need to go learning a new app every couple of years.

I worked in a pharmacy (not a pharmacist), and this sort of thing is extremely common. I helped a nicely dressed fellow one night, who asked where the Advil was. I showed him, and pointed out the store brand (Much cheaper). The guy told me that ibuprofin doesn't work for him, only Advil. This happens with the cough and cold medicines as well - most are the same combination of drugs, sometimes with or without one, and folks will buy different labeled combinations at different times.

When the word got out about tylenol and liver damage, one of the causes they cited was the same situation as above - multiple drug compounds. Migraines. Folks thinking tylenol was the safe choice, impossible to overdose on. Folks generally think the stuff on the shelf is really, really safe.

It isn't like they teach this stuff in school. While I might have known to look out, I didn't always know this. And if this sort of information misses you when it was the 'big news'... well, out of luck.

I'd much rather the products be in different pills most of the time as I think it means consumers might think a bit more about what they take and match it up with symptoms. Either that, or have many be only available without receipt after asking pharmacist or trained personel.
