It's amazing how little exercise it takes to do the trick. Personally I feel like it's important to do something that opens the lungs and gets the heart beating, so cardio of some sort is what I choose (sometimes skipping rope). But some sort of all-body stretching (yoga sun salutation or similar) is actually enough.

It's a pretty standard tactic within municipal workforces to intentionally under-hire full time employees to "force" overtime among the remaining ones. Low level corruption.
This is true. A very ugly situation in what used to be a world-class city. I have seen homeless people defecating in the BART / Subway escalators.

Initial anger turned to apathy. Where would they go? There are no public toilets as far as I can tell, in the downtown / tenderloin area. I did volunteer work at San Quentin and Pelican Bay helping non-violent inmates apply for jobs outside, and almost all the ones I helped in San Quentin said they were being paroled into San Francisco. Eventually they all end up in the Tenderloin district, sleeping on the street and relieving themselves at the BART stations.
Hacker news, where having a brand name means all products you released have to be fully featured, documented, well marketed, omni-platform and take full advantage of the "obvious" synergy with your existing products. Otherwise, it's clearly total rubbish.

Maybe ah… this was built and released by a small team who may or may not go on to iterate on the implementation pending collection and evaluation of usage data. Perhaps you would like to comment on this as if it's an early iteration? Maybe you could take the painful step of recognizing that the people who built it are people; individual human lives with limited time and resources and therefore attempted to strike a balance with respect to resources spent in an effort to release something, limited for sure but compelling.

We don't know our cognitive limits.

Think about how hard you mentally push yourself on a day to day. It isn't a stretch to think that cognition can be trained stronger.

Do you ever wonder what an Eagle's vision would be like if they lived inside of a 10x15 room their whole life?

> At birth, the number of synapses per neuron is 2,500, but by age two or three, it’s about 15,000 per neuron. The brain eliminates connections that are seldom or never used, which is a normal part of brain development. [0]

How much do you think the average kid, or their adult counterpart, would need to use their brain for sitting in front of the tv or working a menial job / boring school?

I believe we set our own cognitive limits and I hope that we can learn to reset them.

If you look at the links to the other "top articles" on this site, none of them are really news either. Example:"How America Created ‘HIV/AIDS’ to kill Black People"
This is anything but seamless. As soon as I saw them slide out that webview with the vendor's site I nearly vomited. They had a chance to make buying items that users like so much more painless, but they only delivered a partial experience. I don't want to bother with creating an account for every random vendor, typing in my CC info, and then having to rummage through emails to get tracking info. This is a great idea, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired.
Yeah, not information in the article about his hours. I'm assuming he just worked every overtime hour possible, which is some crazy sacrifice. When I lived in Oregon I remember reading about a 911 dispatcher who was one of the highest paid public employees, but he also was regularly working 80+hr weeks--7 days a week for months at a time. If there's a problem its a management issue.

Since you are looking for high powered quad core, may I suggest Oryx Pro by system76.
https://system76.com/laptops/oryx
Unless something changed or I'm mistaken, I believe that System76 are just rebranded Clevos (http://www.clevo.com.tw/). In the U.S., Sager has the contract for distribution (https://www.sagernotebook.com) and I believe they're the ones who resell to people like System76, XoticPC, etc.

As far as these computers, I own and use a Sager NP7338 (Clevo W230SS) that I purchased through XoticPC. Works perfectly great with Linux and Sager has been pretty easy for me to contact directly and get replacement parts (a keyboard so far.) Mechanical quality is only fair. Had some problems with the hinges, which I ended up drilling out and putting in some bolts, but other than that I've been extremely happy. I've three SSDs in a 13" computer with replaceable batteries, so I've gotten plenty of good use.

Failure is bad. No one really works to fail, but if you’re an entrepreneur slogging away at your business, there is a high chance that you’ve encountered the dreaded F-word. In India, its even worse because failure is looked down upon and even the closest ones begin doubting you.

Failure is hard. Failure is tough. But its also an essential part of what makes you an entrepreneur. It make you learn from your mistakes and move on.

At RebootConf, we’re not just embracing failure, we’re celebrating it. We’re inviting 30 entrepreneurs across our chosen themes for a one day event, to talk about their mistakes & failures.

Come join us and see the difference!

Thanks a lot for this!
Very horrible people in that committee...
People are more or less paid for what they produce, how much time they spend at it is immaterial. (Despite ostensibly being paid by the hour, the rate is based on the expected value they'll produce in that time.) The idea of pay for time is the Labor Theory of Value, and is discredited.
SalesLoft http://salesloft.com | rails angular | Atlanta, GA | Full-time | On-site

SalesLoft is the application of record for sales development organizations. We help sales people manage their outbound processes at large scales, and try to do so in a way that allows sales people to express sincerity and empathy.

SalesLoft is a culture-first company and we very much value positive, supportive, and self-starting candidates / employees.

We are looking for full stack software engineers, although that doesn't mean that you would need to come being extremely knowledgeable in both front-end and back-end development. Some of our employees are stronger on one or the other but looking to grow. We also have some positions open for other roles in our engineering organization (basically any role you can think of, we're probably hiring in some capacity).

Feel free to shoot me an email with your resume, LinkedIn URL, and GitHub account if you are interested. My email is steve@salesloft.com
Yeah, I'm actually drinking the coffee right now that I will use to fix that!
Pratt Parsing and Precedence Climbing Are the Same Algorithm
I regret not having links to share, but studies show that married people on average have sex more often than unmarried people. Protestant couples (married) report having the most sex of any of the cohorts studied, though catholic couples had the highest subjective satisfaction rating - make of that what you will.

My interpretation: this is largely because most people, when they are single, struggle to find romantic partners. Many are also (at least ostensibly) looking for someone to marry, and so they try to optimize for that (sometimes) at the expense of more sex now.

I agree with the distinction you are making though.
I'd second the Ideapad. Not sure about recent versions, but I've had the Z510 for >2 years and it is great. I took out the CD drive and have an SSD + 1TB HD and it runs fedora with almost no issues (wifi drivers on some kernel upgrades). Only downside is the battery which was never great and after 2 years is down to about an hour.

Cost me about $700 2 years ago and other than the battery is perfect.
Really regret having bought a System76. I hardly moved it off my desk but it was completely broken after 2 years of use. Rj45 port broke (everyone at work had the same problem), battery life was poor and stopped charging altogether after a year, keyboard needed to be replaced, screen weren't blurry on the one side. These are very cheaply made laptops from Clevo. If you need a cheap laptop, then you're probably better off buying it directly from them. But way better just to avoid altogether.

A bunch of guys at work bought them and I don't think any of us would again.
BART is not owned or managed by the city of San Francisco, it's managed by a 9 member elected board - SF holds 2 seats (plus one seat covers some SF and some East Bay areas)

While SF may have a lot of faults, SF can't be blamed for BART's problems.

Yea, I never understood why that database has names attached to it. What's the point?

It seems unfair to me that teachers, or people who work in education and other, usually low paying, public service jobs gets exposed like this.

If they want to embarrass people for abusing their public sector job, then we have public officials, who head these departments and ultimately responsible for the salaries, to scold. No need to name individual employees.
Design should serve its purpose.

Here, the purpose is to clearly and effectively convey that there are hazards which can maim or kill. And the design has to both convey that message and not get in the way of it.

As models of effective, and yet elegant design, I think they're worth studying.

The general concept of messaging and how various systems for it work is a quite general one. E.O. Wilson in his book Letters to a Young Scientist talks of his own work with ants, and in determining that danger signals were small, light, volatile molecules -- they spread quickly and dispersed relatively quickly (no use in spreading alarm after the danger's passed), but might also be detected by other species (not a real concern -- alarm is alarm).

More complex messages -- food trails or colony identity, were larger, more complex molecules, which didn't spread so far (you don't want your "the trail is this way" signs pointing off in all directions or getting moved to where they don't belong), and are more specific to species (no use telling the competition where the gold is buried). It's something of a molecular grammar.

There are times for highly ornate graphics. There are times for something blunt and to the point. Knowing when (and how) to use either is the mark of an accomplished graphic artist.

Well, I'm probably full for the moment, but a startup that I know is bleeding some in my neck of the woods is MasteryConnect. Chop chop chop. Domo is not looking good, but they probably have money to survive for a bit.
The head of the DNC was already fired from CNN for directly colluding with Hillary Clinton (she gave HRC questions for the democratic debates ahead of time).

I have no idea how Bernie still supports her. She literally cheated against him to get the nomination.

This is not speculation. It's direct evidence of corruption in the DNC (and it revolves around guess who---Hillary Clinton).

Companies can self-consistently seek to hire the best and fire the worst from the the hired-pool.

1. Hiring is a noisy process. You can tune your hiring test to lean more towards false negatives or more towards false positives, but you cannot (at this juncture in history) eliminate a large amount of bias (error) from evaluations of candidates.

2. Regression to the mean ensures that any hiring process that sets a "high bar" will result in pool of developers who are on average below that bar.

3. as an employee remains at a company, the bias in your evaluation process should decrease dramatically. One can, and probably should try to weed out false positives, especially if one is trying to reduce payroll.

Companies can self-consistently seek to hire the best and fire the worst from the the hired-pool.

Interesting, is the incentive here to undermine wage limits in place to give their employees a better living?
you cannot use the MacBook because you need a dual drive setup.

The only laptop that fits everything is the XPS 15 - you can have a hdd +ssd and go upto 32gb ram.

you might find the precision 5510 (same as xps 15,with a cheaper graphics card) to be better.

Another option is the Lenovo p50... but its not very common. But a great machine.

In astronomy you need multiple exposures to get rid of cosmic rays, which appear as bright lines or dots. A median filter can be applied to the exposures. HST uses tools called drizzlepac and multidrizzle to combine multiple dithered images to better make use of the telescope's native resolution which would otherwise be degraded by the detector.
Most of those links are several months to several years old, up until you get back to a link to this article, and your comment coming up first.

Is there a problem to get any decently built laptop and put Linux on top of it in your own? You can argue that it's better to get laptop with Linux pre installed, but I don't 100% agree since Linux means freedom in choosing stuff you need, so it's better to install distributive you like than default Ubuntu. Also don't count much on the customer support when it comes to the Linux laptops, it's common for Linux user to handle possible issues independently. So I don't see a strong reason to get laptop with pre installed Linux limiting yourself in other terms, such as accepting worse hardware and build quality (since there are not a lot of Linux based laptops on the market, and so you won't have many choices, so don't even compare for example system76 vs hp x360) and limiting yourself by Ubuntu distributive.
P2 wasn't working for us. We wanted something that used the same authentication as Zapier so it could just be one account. We also had a few other features we wanted to customize a bit too.
It depends on what the customer has already. We (Red Hat) support installing OpenShift anywhere that RHEL x86-64 is supported, whether that is bare metal, vms, private/public cloud, etc. For example, our hosted "Heroku like" OpenShift Online is on AWS (https://www.openshift.com/devpreview/).
In my opinion system76.com does the best Linux laptops.
It is really funny in a way and necessary in another.

Funny because companies necessarily say they aspire to have a representative workforce, one which reflects the community (local/national workforce, users, the founders?) but then when it comes down to it, they only want to keep the ones who will provide some value (which is obvious) but then remember the community is made up of all kinds of people with different abilities --so we realize we are all in it for ourselves --there is no "community" where we look after each other. It's me or them, really.

It's necessary because, well, we live in a competitive world where your competitor isn't going to say, well, let's take it easy on them, they are keeping on a bunch of underachievers, and keeping underachivers employed is good for community, so we should give them a break.
