This comment is very misleading. These aren't injections of straight hormones. They are hormone esters that are injected into a muscle, where they are slowly released in the blood stream and slowly metabolized to active hormones so as to maintain a steady level of hormone in the serum over a long period of time.

You compare 0.35 mg norethisterone to 200 mg norethisterone enanthate used in the study. The normal dose for women of norethisterone enanthate injection is 200 mg every 8 weeks. The same is true of the testosterone undecanoate used in the study. One injection is released over weeks, not all at once. You mention hypogonadism. In an early study of testosterone decanoate for hypergonadism, they used (almost) exactly the same dose, 1000 mg every 6-9 weeks.

It does seem like the testosterone may have been too much, based on the side effects listed, but you shouldn't come on HN and start posting diatribes when you aren't sure what you're talking about. And if you were sure, well, that's another problem.
Really nifty! I can see where this is useful if there's no Sound Recorder handy. However, would it be possible to add simple tuning features such as gain/boost, pan, pitch bend, and maybe reverb?

Full disclaimer: I am right wing, far right by some standards. I find Trump to be a brilliant man in many areas, with flaws like every human being has. I am fiercely against the modern "PC" bs and fully agree with this professor's stance on Milo Yiannopoulos' censoring, even when I find Milo to be a hypocrite that tiptoes around hard-right concepts for publicity.

With that said, I fully agree that this is nothing but a piece to try to undo the major fuck-up that was his Twitter trolling account linked to himself and his employer.

He's now trying to use the force of our movement to shield himself from the fair consequences of his actions using the inevitable PC-overreaction as an excuse.
Those reasons, which surely place some non-negligible burden on the teams involved, do not seem to be so overwhelming as to ultimately dictate that 80% of projects are not made open source.

I'm definitely aware of the difficulties involved in open sourcing significant amounts of your work. The bigger burden is less, in my opinion, about cleaning up your code base. If you're committing potential security vulnerabilities into your code that are then tracked by your version control system – and you're a Federal agency – that's already a problem that's just going to be exacerbated by making it public; making that code private doesn't make the problem disappear.

The real meaty problems that all open source projects share is people: people like me who come in and overwhelm the project with support requests. I just opened four issues tonight just for this website, in the span of several minutes. (Sorry team!) If you already have poor project management practices in place, or your team is too small, this can quickly overload you.

Of course, with a vibrant community around your project, even the social and management problems could become trivial with time. Look at especially great examples like Hoodie. Given the number of technical people who have left cushy, high-paying jobs to serve in 18F, USDS, and the other alphabet agencies of late, I have to imagine the rallying cry to support truly useful code by compassionate people will be significant enough to justify the upfront expense here.

Not only is 20% not perfect, I don't think it's enough. I want 100%, and I think it's a fair request as a taxpayer, even if there is some burden. This country has fought two world wars and gone to the moon. We can always do better.
I've heard that argument before, and it kind of amuses me. It's as if to say, yes, Hillary is awful, but if she's elected she'll probably do a good enough job that she will win re-election in four years time.

Those two things don't seem to go together well to me.

tried that on upwork and as you said it take a lot longer than what you planned for ..
Assuming that's true, private companies contracted by the government may not be under that same requirement (think military specs and designs). The output as a whole may be public domain (I know what an F22 is, and the parts to build one, but the specs to those parts are proprietary) but the operations, and binaries,(specs and requirements to build the individual pieces) to produce that output may remain private.
I have a feeling this is slowly changing.

Best suggestion I've seen on this: click events apply to whatever had been in the location ~300ms BEFORE you selected it. Turns out humans can't respond much more quickly than that.

I wish I could credit the source but I don't recall -- HN or Reddit probably.

I'm also still not sure this solves the full problem. On mobile, there's generally the problem that a touch and a drag are two different actions, but they're not clearly distinguished. There's a tremendous amount of ambiguity over just where you can or cannot touch on a given web page to accomplish a click, and increasingly pages have very few "safe" whitespace zones.

Examples coming to mind: Chrome/Android history -- the delete-item 'x' will also open the link in the current browser tab. I've found clearing history to be tedious (there's no way to select multiple items, or a date range, say -- you can only delete items one-at-a-time, and not too fast...). On YouTube/Mobile, the entire panel of a search result is a clickable zone, making scrolling the page without inadvertently opening a video you're not interested in all but impossible.

It's abysmally poor UI/UX in both cases.
That is fine but don't later ask why the system has 10 different customers for Commers Ltd

I ended up building another table and logic just to do roll-ups and account for name variations. But I told the client that they really need to invest in a serious cross-referencing middleware that tracks identities across all these systems and uses ID numbers to coordinate all the legacy systems.

But yes trying to develop models or even simple aggregations that rely on this kind of data can be quite frustrating.

* What people want is to run apps on their phones.
* Most apps now depend on google services because google actively promotes play services over base system services, and doesn't really invest in the later anymore.
* Many people don't want to run google services on their phones (Me included).
* MicroG solves this problem by replacing google services with equivalent services.
* People can now run the apps they want.

This has nothing to do with entitlement or google. This is a way for people to run software on their phones without needlessly going through google.

No specific network protocol, no standards. They can be plugged into networks like FB Messenger, Telegram, Slack and so on. Some are straight-up independent apps. In Telegram for example all you have to do is to add the chatbot like another contact.

Conceptually they're not very different from IRC bots except for having natural language processing rather than simple regex/command capabilities.

Chat bots are associated with text, but Google Assistant and Siri are basically chat bots plugged into voice recognition and text-to-speech interfaces.

My buddy used to work at Apollo out in Concord and I know they take their juice seriously. I think it's shitty, but it's not because the line is dirty haha.

Do you even know how the UNHRC works or how much of a farce it is?

Member states are rotated every 3 years. The council is heavily controlled and influenced by middle eastern and African nations, supported by China, Russia and Cuba, which protect each other from criticism. Even Ban Ki-moon has called the council ineffective. An example of this influence is that it criticises Israel more than all other countries combined - which, remember, include North Korea, Syria, China, Turkey, Libya, Burma, Zimbabwe, etc.

The UNHRC is not representative of the UN.

Not really. It's in there because ... it works. One of the main things that our brain does is predicting behavior based on visible stimuli, and so we make assumptions about behavior based on lots of things. 140cm high ? Odds of NBA player seem slim. Skin color X -> behavior Y.

Which then leads to countermoves to compensate for behavior before it occurs. Think of it as a way to solve the prisoner's dilemma without getting screwed on the first play, because that's what it is.

A good answer for the distinction of suppressed inre: banned, but your post as a contribution to the discussion at large is weakened by the "wise mystic who won't reveal the whole truth for the good of the student" routine. You might as well speak in riddles.

I'm fairly certain your second example is Tragedy and Hope by Carroll Quigley, although he was an American teaching at Georgetown. Your first might be Dark Alliance by Gary Webb (if one defines "distributor" very loosely), but I haven't a clue on the last two. They don't trigger anything in memory and the details are too vague for a fruitful search. Be a good sport and elaborate.

Can someone clarify some points?

* Isn't etcd2 is required to start kubernetes? I found that if etcd2 is not helaty or connection is just temporary lost then k8s just freezes it's scheduling and API. So what if Operator and etcd2 is working on one node and it is down? Also i found that etcd2 also freezes event when one node is down. Isn't it unrecoverable situation?

* k8s/coreos manual recommends to have etcd2 servers not that far from each other mostly because it have very strict requirements about networks (ping 5ms or so) that for some pairs of servers couldn't work well.

* What if we will lost ALL nodes and it will create almost new cluster from backups, but what if we will need to restore latest version (not 30 mins ago)?
To be fair, there actually is a semiconductor industry here, so "Silicon" would be an apt description.
To answer you question, I do not know what they were compensated. But I suppose if you already had the amount of children you wanted and were considering the ole snip snip, this might have been a considerable option. Maybe it's what they wanted? I do agree though that if this were a young man, I sincerely hope they made some frozen samples before committing to this study.
I previously posted about taking out my sperm production using 'the old heat methods':

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11934396

That post was 137 days ago was... June 19, 2016. I had verified on about May 15, 2016 that I was azoospermic, and stopped the aggressive heat treatments on that date. I had used a variety of testicle-heating interventions for about 4 months. My sperm were completely gone for 2 months, then slowly started to return.

I intend to get a professional sperm analysis at the six month mark (November 15th), then redo the heat protocol, collecting more data this time... I suppose I need some better slides.

Controller wasn't quite the term to capture the combination of an application specific controller and third party resource to manage a collection of user created application instances.

So, we arrived at Operator. It felt like a good term that we could put after X that encapsulates the intent of the pattern. It helps you operate instances of an application.

The work to open source something is often extra work. So it would effectively increase the cost or, keeping costs fixed, reduce the impact of the software on it initial target...those who it was developed for.

I also imagine that in many cases the effort to open source some project would be much greater than the pay off. There are many custom software solutions developed that are of almost no value outside of the small domain specific target audience.

I tried to graduate after paying just one month's tuition. They told me I had to pay for the next month before they would issue the certificate. I told them it wasn't fair, but they pointed out the 2-month requirement was somewhere in their T&Cs.

Google’s Chrome Hackers Are About to Upend Your Idea of Web Security
Exactly what I wanted to say.

There is always someone bragging how some recent development made webapps even slickier and better performing than native ones, and every time I try it out, I'm hugely disappointed by a sluggish mess that barely manages to get most portions of native look-and-feel right.

Same applies when a "native" app uses an HTML/CSS renderer for its UI. For some reason I usually notice it. Well, at least it has some OS integration that way...

Not to say about the value of having an old version (does not apply to apps that are mere remote API adapters, but it's not like every app is like that).

So, I believe it's highly unlikely, no matter how many times this "webapp is the future" mantra is repeated.
The California DMV website has changed recently, and the headshot are in the footer, as links to their respective sites. This is an improvement, but the branding is still all over the place.

OpenWrt 15.05.1 ("Chaos Calmer") is stable, and quite secure as shipped. Using the default packages, or a few well-known packages as add-ons will be fine from a stability, security, and UI standpoint.

OpenWrt Trunk ("Designated Driver") development doesn't seem to be going as quickly as it was before LEDE split off. It's still a development trunk version, and not guaranteed to be stable.

LEDE is just getting off the ground. Its nightly builds change (improve) rapidly, but you may not want your family (spouse, kids) to rely on it right now. It will have the same (or better) stability, security & UI characteristics as 15.05.1 when they ship their first stable version. There's no schedule yet, but look for an announcement in the new year.

For your stated requirements, I would recommend (and am personally running) OpenWrt 15.05.1

Cover letters don't need to be paragraph after paragraph of prose, and they don't always go to HR drones either, see for example, the context of this thread because many of the who's hiring posts bypass HR drone screening.

> I've literally never had a good experience with a company that wanted a cover letter.

To provide a counter point, for a recent contracting job, I got an interview with a cover letter only (no resume), and then the position.

I had responded to a 'we're hiring' link at the end of a technical blog post (linked to from HN). I wrote a brief email introducing myself and talking about the value I thought could bring to the company (with links to examples of prior, related work), and that led to follow up emails and an interview. I don't think it would have gone any further if I had just sent an email saying 'Please find my resume attached' and then sent a generic resume.
1) Yes, Kubernetes relies on etcd as its primary database. Right now the etcd Operator does not tackle trying to manage the etcd that Kubernetes relies on. But! We are working on that as part of our self-hosted work https://coreos.com/blog/self-hosted-kubernetes.html. Stay tuned.

2) etcd can deal with any latency up to seconds long for say a globally replicated etcd. But! You need to tune etcd to expect that latency so it doesn't trigger a leader election. See the tuning guide: https://coreos.com/etcd/docs/latest/tuning.html

3) The backups are something that we are just getting to with the etcd Operator. Our intention is to help you create backups and create new clusters from arbitrarily old backups, but that work hasn't started yet.
