For point A, some contributing factors that I experience include...

* Insane portion sizes when I eat out.

* If there is a smaller size it feels not worth it (it's not that much smaller, but the cost is still dis-proportionately high, adding a psychological barrier to ordering less)

* I hate leftovers, but I was also given that 'starving children in Africa' speech as a kid... I hate leaving food behind.

* I have a 'desk job' and thus don't get enough exercise.

* American culture is predominantly a car culture, our cities, suburbs, and rural areas are built to that standard.

* I wasn't, really, at all trained in making HEALTHY food as a kid.

* Making healthy food takes some time, or at least a good bit of planning.

* Making food for one means I can't keep the best healthy ingredients around. (Fruits, vegetables, to a degree bread) Even the smaller store sizes are at high risk of going bad before I get them, and they have a cost high enough to make me lust for prepared foods.

* Most of the prepared foods are made to sell on taste, and thus have a lot of what isn't 'healthy' for us.

* We've also, apparently, been on a war against fats, when their common substitute sugar is actually a more insidious enemy.
Of all the possible conclusions that could have been drawn, this one is the farthest from truth.
I've been using http://mmattozzi.github.io/cocoa-rest-client for a couple of years, I just tried Insomnia and I think I'll be switching: having the ability to call frequently used API requests without having to re-enter JSON data will be very useful. Nice app, thanks gschier.
On a technical level that might be true, but to the average user I think the edge google had over its competitors was that its product was vastly superior. How they built better search results was a matter of implementation, while the end product didn't stray far fom the public idea of a search engine.

We have been in the process of upgrading from Bootstrap 3 to 4 at work (in addition to other changes) - libraries we use on top of Bootstrap are moving to 4, so we need to too as long as we continue to maintain these applications.

In addition, it allows us to simplify CSS some by moving away from Bootstrap's crufty float-based grid system into a flexbox system, which simplifies some of our code.

The Bootstrap 3 to 4 upgrade isn't too bad as far as upgrades go.
I am asking this 100% seriously. I have never actually seen police helping anyone -- only seen them harrassing or extorting money (outright or via bogus traffic citations). I have come to the conclusion that the idea of a police force that is really there to help citizens may be a myth.

The irony is that, while the Wright Brothers are the only household names from the pioneering days of flight, essential contributions were made long before Kitty Hawk, and many came after them to make their planes useful.

The Work of the Wright brothers was just one link in a causal chain with beginnings preceding them by over 250 years.

The best and worst countries in the world for making friends
Women are waste of time and money. You can get children from a surrogate mother in Ukraine for 14000$ or something. And by the way, according to new law in Germany, it may be considered as a rape if you just slightly touch female's legs... even dogs have more rights than males in this country and this is why I will move out soon.
None, but it's a nice alternative for those on a small budget who would otherwise have nothing at all.
What I really want to know is what the adoption rate of Ubuntu Touch is among the hacker/hobbyist/diehard Linux crowd. Firefox OS has lost its official support on smartphone, no idea where Sailfish OS is at, so Canonical should be doing everything they can to make their platform the alternative to the big 2. Are they?
Your argument is corrupt. It doesn't take science to recognize morality. Each and every child in a porn video is someone's son or daughter. Each and every child has value. Society chooses to make and enforce laws which dissuade deviant behavior. Erode the moral foundation of a society is to watch it crumble.

And it might still work. One of the neat things about Philae is that it's rated to withstand temperatures down to −60 °C. Most other space probes(and electronics in general) are not rated for such low temperatures and will experience solder joint failures if such temperatures are reached. Most space probes stay above their failure temperature with heaters, if said heaters fail, the space probe dies and won't function even if it warms back up. This happened to the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit.

We don't know just how low Philae can go, however, there is a good chance it's electronics won't break below the rated temperature.

GCC Real Estate Conference 2016 in Dubai
But what's your point? This is an utterly rubbish reason/excuse for America's "great cities" to remain the shame/buttholes of the world forevermore. It is the Christianity + liberalism's worship of the poor that leads to subsidized instead of market-rate (PROFITABLE) subway trips which means no money to fix or improve anything unless the money can be stolen from tax payers (instead of the rational thing --> getting it from the fricking folks who BENEFIT from the subway)....

Until we get over the age of altruism, America is doomed.

The power of habit – executing tasks automatically
Have you been there? It's not something to look forward to. Every stinkin' place you want to go involves 45 minutes of road travel. Just because you get to zone out all the while doesn't mean your day isn't deprived of an immense amount of time.

(To put things in perspective, I'm in Austin where everything, absolutely everything, is within 15 minutes' drive, but it is a "catastrophe" that during peak hours that becomes 35-40. Working at home and driving only off-peak hours has it's perks!)
I'm finding it hard to believe that the bit field thing is ever really worth it. Even if you could collapse a dozen booleans into a single bit field, will this have a measurable impact?

The other two optimizations I could see either having no impact on code maintenance, or maybe even improving it. The bitfields thing though I'd have to see super compelling benchmarks to be sold on.

During my young naïve programming days (which coming to think of it haven't really ended) I thought to myself "Why bother using some third party database when I could just store user information in text files, the OS handles that sort of thing really well, right?". I looked into it as much as I could be bothered and found no huge red flags.

After a few years of this server merrily creating a new file for each user I found that my disk was full, as this poster did. After a lot of hunting around, I found out that I had hit my inode limit, a concept I was completely unaware of.

I know for sure I won't be making THAT mistake again.
4 Lesser-Known Practices That Increase E-Commerce Conversion
As I followed the links in the article, and the links those links linked to, I noticed that none of them report the gender breakdown among those who have never had sex.

In the surveys I've seen before, the average number of reported female sexual partners per man did not equal the average number of reported male sexual partners per woman. Men overreport their number of sexual partners; women underreport. This effect could skew the aggregate reported results among the entire population one way or another, depending on other factors.

If the underlying trend is one of increasing inequality in male sexual activity -- fewer men having sex with more women, while women have the same number of sexual encounters overall -- then because fewer men have had sex, the proportion of all people who have never had sex would increase compared to previous generations, even if the average amount of sex across the board actually remained the same as in previous generations.
I may be wrong but i thought that the main thing holding up the 3d printing revolution, was the long wait for the relevant patents to expire.
>We ended up using the JsonProperty attribute on some things to force their casing how we needed them.

That's a weird choice. It's a one-line modification to change back to the legacy naming scheme [1]. (Which is completely non-standard and doesn't follow what basically the entire rest of the web accepts as the standard method of naming js object keys. But hey, .NET people are really beholden to some strange things.)

I disagree. Bitfields of somewhat unrelated fields is a sacrifice in clarity even if you understand bitfields perfectly well -- I'd argue anything requiring boilerplate sacrifices something in the way of being able to understand a code base.
Even if SF's population "skews older" than Manhattan's, it doesn't refute the original commenter's anecdote. Older people in SF may dine out less than older people in Manhattan do - perhaps for financial or logistical or cultural reasons.
Obviously it doesn't go for every overweight person, but I would imagine not taking care of yourself enough to sustain a healthy body weight also comes with a slew of other problems such as depression, low self esteem, social anxiety, that would hinder a healthy sex life.

The Drug of Choice for the Age of Kale
It's also worth keeping in mind the Saganism

But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not
imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They

Clown.

We can see what is currently being laughed at. Bitcoin stands out as a good example. History will decide if they were geniuses or clowns. All we have at the moment are opinions.

On the other hand there is a particular form of sneering dismissiveness that I see from a few people that I use as a guide. In the Bitcoin case all the right people were panning it so I grabbed a few for $11 each, that worked out well.

Vcommerce – Future of Online Retail
"After a lot of hunting around, I found out that I had hit my inode limit, a concept I was completely unaware of."

What was the number you hit?

I have a flat file system for something I'm prototyping. The files are in a database with a random SHA256 filename associated with them. I was thinking about doing what Git does with creating folders for parts of the string to alleviate the number of files in one single directory. I'm sure that makes file retrieval a prettier process.

Do all the files for have to be in the same directory for the iNode limit to be reached or just there in general?

NOTE: I ask because the prototype isn't ever meant to go into production, but my customer keeps getting confused and I'm concerned this very important system may inherit (or even use) my design.

Yes, I agree, it would be cool to have some commentary from you on what you found. It could be anything just some thoughts on what you found even if you're uncertain. It be fascinating to hear what those closest to this study think.
The amount of money it costs to live in NYC compared to somewhere like salt lake or Denver, you could buy a new car every year. There is no chance it's cheaper.
For a website, not being able to manipulate files (no System.IO.File) or images (no System.Drawing) is a bit of a problem unless all you are doing is serve a database.
Horseless carriages propelled by gasoline might attain speeds of 14 or even 20 miles per hour. The menace to our people of vehicles of this type hurtling through our streets and along our roads and poisoning the atmosphere would call for prompt legislative action.

Congress were actually rather insightful in these predictions. Millions now die every year from motor vehicle accidents and air pollution.
The point is people understood what Google was from the get-go, because they had used similar products to serve their needs before.
On the other hand, the invention of the internet was not immediately popular because it was so different that people couldn't relate it to their prior experiences.

IT pros don't use all their annual leave due to work pressure
That's pretty reasonable advice. Whenever we're going to leave the car parked on the street in the city overnight (or at least late at night), we drive the old car, rather than the newer nicer car (though we're talking $25K versus $5K). Makes our car less attractive to thieves, and we care much less if it gets some minor damage. I'd be surprised if either of our cars were ever stolen since they have transponder keys and I don't think tow-truck thefts are that common in this city. We're more likely to run into smash-and-grab thefts. (only happened twice over almost 10 years, nothing of value was taken, and the window "only" cost about $200 to replace)

For that same reason, I ride the cheap $500 commuter bike to work or the store, and save the $4000 nice bike for long rides where I'm not going to leave it unattended. (well, that and the commuter bike has a rack so I can easily carry more stuff) I did ride the nice bike to work a few times, and parked it at my desk.
I think his point still stands. Basically, if you do something far enough outside the norm, you may hit really time consuming bugs.
And there is also the runaway quality selection. It seems that for a long time there was a trend of fewer children per pair, this is the logical cause and conclusion.

Moreover the societal group ties have disappeared. You can see it as many fewer subcultures and subgroups. Quite a few are virtual (Internet based, not local) and that does not lens itself to relationships. Results in loneliness in crowd, since everyone is a stranger.

No, my understanding of .Net core is that this is also the way they want to get back on devices. I think Xamarin will ultimately be based on .net Core. And for a mobile app, you bet you need a way to manipulate images.

"While we have a tremendous respect for Mr. Crockford's abilities as a speaker and his contributions to our craft, we became aware that based on private feedback - not simply the dialogue on Twitter - that his presence would make some speakers uncomfortable to the point where they refused to attend or speak."

"We are in over our heads."

Well, that's certainly the truth.

I also notice that while they apologized so unreservedly, they didn't go so far as to reinvite Crockford.

Although the exception would probably be rare if it used a large enough number, do you think the "copying utility" (whatever it may be) should handle those extreme edge cases? Or is it just "disk full" that's used as a fall-back?
Completely reasonable thing to do, for a little while. Ycombinator itself did this initially. The key is knowing you'll need to do something better soon.
The whole FS has a limited number of inodes, additionally some FS have limited number of files or directories inside a directory. If you don't control the FS chosen by your customer, I'd design conservatively (find the dumbest set of limits, stay under them).

Pretty much every real-world villain ever has spoken in soaring words about how they were dedicated to freedom and liberty and justice. Or, these days, "safety," "friendliness," "tolerance," "diversity," and "inclusivity." Just because somebody uses applause words doesn't make them the good guys; we really should have internalized that by now.
