The federal portion is pretty small in an American election too, three races at most. President every four years, one congressman every two years, one senator at a time (six year terms, but they are staggered so a state's senators get elected in different cycles). At the federal level, we don't vote for judges or referenda or anything like that.

On the other hand, my state is vote by mail, so no tricky machines. Just drawing a line to complete an arrow, then mailing it back in. Pretty hard to screw up.

Some filling stations also use the arrangement of four buttons on either side of a large dot matrix screen, for a total of eight buttons. But even this has alignment problems -- ones I've experienced personally despite images being difficult to find. But these [1][2] show the problem: the options listed on the in-set screen come out of alignment with the buttons at extreme angles. That, coupled with other design decisions [3] makes some filling stations frustrating to use.

Soylent is more than food...the company and, more importantly, the idea (increased productivity/efficiency) that it embodies is a poster child for the social norm-disrupting technology that is coming out of SV. Many of this site work in the area and belong to its culture/brand (whether they want to or not) and it's their identity and what other people, friends and family included, quickly judge them by.

It's not rational to judge an entire area or economic movement on the merits of a few, high-profile companies that are working on products that seem to be straight out of the movies (self-driving cars, addictive ad networks, virtual reality porn, gov spy software, futuristic milkshakes) but it's exciting so it's what people do.

Nobody cares about the food aspect. Think one layer deeper - it's SVs brand, and, inextricably, "technology"s brand - yes that includes computers, servers, CRM software, virtual machines, the actual stuff that people on this website do and no it doesn't make any sense to link this stuff to Soylent's energy bars - that comes under attack every time one of SV's brand leaders is found to be harming people rather than helping them.
When I say "any system imaginable" I mean his tendency to elevate the social/anthropological realities over the other realities: that if we can plausibly believe people could act in a certain way (and there's so many possible ways) then they can make it real in a world of real physical and informational limits. I think he takes it way too far in this sense.

Reciprocity is a perfectly good way to run a small economy. But note - you're still trading, in a significant sense. Accounts of who does what are kept, the relative value of items and acts are considered, and social honor and reputation are valuable goods in themselves (in a "capitalist" system as well.) One does not escape from "markets" or "property" just because some goods are social or symbolic.

I agree we've sort of ended up at different destinations. I'm aware that "global capitalism" is a strange beast - but not really any stranger than anything that's come before. It's sometimes hard, but works okay, and is probably worth keeping around on its own merits.

So then how does saying "I got up at 9:00" have any meaning if you live in an area with only a few hours of sunlight if any?

I didn't make the claim that "two hours after sunrise" is completely accurate. I made the claim that it's more accurate. It's more accurate for more people who live relatively closer to the equator.

You put the above very nicely. Old school we'd call this type of behavior "weird". (If the person was wealthy we'd call them eccentric.) Bottom line is I would guess that anyone who adopts this lifestyle has something missing in their life and is looking to make a drastic change in order to find 'the answer'. Depression as certainly the obvious possibility. Unless there is a specific reason.

And there is nothing wrong with 'stuff'. I have a nice car or two. I enjoy driving it it makes me happy. If it doesn't make someone else happy that's fine but I go with what gives me positive feelings (even if a set of knifes that I don't use) and leave it at that.

Also weather, sports scores, looking up facts while talking to someone (so I don't have to get out of the convo and stare at the screen).
And even worse. There seems to be distinct mindsets where some people care about sustainable things like soil-quality, erotion and product quality and other people seem to care distinctly less about these things.

I think the current GMO-reality is harmful because it seems to cater to the people who care less about sustainable practices. And possibly even promote anti-sustainable thinking.

For that reason I avoid GMO products. There is simply no reason for me to support the kind of farmers who don't care about sustainable practices. And right now GMO seems to be a strong signal about that.

They don't have an abnormal rate of sickness and they aren't selling people fish oil. They're using experimental products, which they are up-front about, and have experienced setbacks because of that.

A business owner who's going to pay you is going to pay you because you deliver something they need but can't find cheaper elsewhere. Almost every business needs some form of web frontend - even mobile-first businesses often need good webapps for marketing & administration purposes. The disdain and loathing from some of the rest of the developer community actually works in your favor, most of the time: it keeps competition out or makes them ineffective at learning the skills needed to be effective.

The one thing to watch out for is that frontend technologies typically have a very short lifetime: in 4-5 years, much of what makes you valuable may be obsolete, and work in it tends to dry up. Just ask DOS/assembly devs in 1995, Swing or MFC developers in 2006, or basic PHP/Rails/Wordpress webdevelopers now. Be prepared to keep learning, and focus on general principles like good UI design, responsiveness, latency, managing state, MVC/MVP architectures, etc.

Yep, it was called "Fat Head." The exercise regime wasn't even that strict, it was basically continuing the regular walking the documentarian already did. However, the food intake was strictly limited to 1800 calories and less then 100g of carbs per day. The goal being to show fast food isn't inherently unhealthy, it was the quantity (as already noted above) being eaten in Super Size Me that was unhealthy. In that regard, Fat Head succeeded as the documentarian's health metrics all improved (lot weight, lower blood pressure, better cholesterol measurements).
I took C first and then Python. Would not recommend. Was like going from a Mountain to a Mole Hill. If it were the other way around, the Mountain would not have been as daunting. Just my 2 cents.
That's because there are some people who strongly disagree that it's simply "bad". If it was as simple as "Blender's UI is bad", then there wouldn't be so many people who absolutely love it ;)

CAD data is getting used more often in 3d graphics (although there's still some cleanup). It's used commonly for product shots and starting to be used for games. The most recent GDC had a McLaren pulled from CAD data running real time in Unreal Engine[1]. I honestly don't think much cleanup was done because of the timeline for projects like these (I thought I heard 6 weeks start to finish focusing on custom engine development for interaction and shading).

In my experience, the problem is more in how the model is organized; having ever screw or washer as a separate piece of geometry causes problems (3d tools have trouble with very large geometry counts even if the poly count isn't high). CAD data also doesn't work very well with non-hard materials like upholstery; stitching is likely missing, as well as things that make cloth/leather look normal like pinching or gravity pushing on things.

It's just me on this one. Honestly, I'm happy with how much it's bringing in at this point ($1-2k/mo, with the occasional jump up if a company sends their whole team through) and not looking to put any more time into it.

I'm curious: why is the pricing linear in RAM for the S* and M* types, but double that for the L* types? L3 = 4xM3, but the pricing is 8xM3. The pricing is very appealing on the lower end, but much less appealing for the still-quite-small large end.

It might be a standard modifier, but you don't go around every menu pressing and depressing option to see the alternatives. I mean, you can, but to use your metaphor, it's a leaky way of exposing available options. All options should be shown when you click on a menu, without having to press extra keys.

"Cut" greys out a file in the Windows File Explorer, showing that it could be cut n' pasted. Cut n' paste is a leaky metaphor for "Move this from here to there" anyway, which is what people want to do 80% of the time when they use this function. People can deal with leaky metaphors that follow the same vector as the original.
> Don't these people have any hobbies or interests?

There's plenty of people here saying they work 60 - 80 hours weeks. Maybe they really don't have hobbies or interests, and don't get friends on their house (I've seen plenty of people that only go "out").

If I had no time to use anything on my home, I'd call it clutter too, and would probably be happy seeing it go away (I'm happy seeing things go away most of the time already, but have plenty of them).
Most OS are written in C. Thus to interface to get good use from the OS you use the libraries which are in C.. (To get networking, shared memory, message passing, process scheduling and all that good stuff).

I wrote c wrappers for ada, and it was a pain. Much easier to use C (or C++) to get to OS functionality.

As long as OS are written in C, it will be with us. Also useful for embedded.

> "Two hours after sunrise" is a meaningless statement for about half of the year in the attic circle for instance.

So the argument is that "getting up at 9:00" is equally worthless in such a situation for connoting waking up a little late. Especially in a place with no sunlight, where the hour when you get up is all the more arbitrary since you don't have the sun to provide a natural guide.

> Businesses will center their schedules around this window no matter what it's called.

The original point is that a business's customers are rarely all in the same time zone anymore. Abiding by UTC doesn't prevent them from opening mainly during the daytime, it just makes it easier to do business with people who live that much further away from you. The point about social tyranny is more a side benefit than the main argument.

I don't have any relational database, but couch which also requires the things you are asking about - HA, clustering, backups etc. I am in process of launching my new app, so I have thought a lot about it as well. What I came up with is:

1) Database running inside docker, but using external mounted volume. Packet has external block storage(14$/month for 50GB high iops version), and you can configure backups on it ranging from 15m to every week. So that should completely cover the HA/backup stuff for most apps.

2) For monitoring/logging, the best solution so far seems to be datadog. It doesn't look very expensive, and seems to have most of the intergations you can come up with - couch, pgsql, docker, express, slack, github.

Combined it costs me 70$, which is a much better deal than PAaS I can think of,

Btw, if someone from datadog is reading this thread, your couch integration seems to be broken.

I make $60/hour through an agency. I do this for 20 hours a week.

This is in addition to my full-time gig.

Assuming I'm booked eight months of the year, that's $38,400.

I could make more if I wasn't going through the agency, but for now, I don't have a name or connections, and I don't have the time to market myself.

So I figure do the agency thing first, build a name, then start soliciting direct clients. Then eventually ditch the full-time gig.

Honestly just stumbling through this.

>Organic does not necessarily mean better for health or environment //

I don't see how you can say that for the later case - most of the requirements mentioned here (for example) http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/organic/index_en for Organic food seem like they would be better for the environment.

In take of less potent and lower quantities of non-food chemicals used as pesticides, herbicides and reduced presence of antibiotics seem like things that would lead to better human health (either directly or indirectly) too.

Can you explain how focus on a local supply chain, say, as one element of Organic farming practice is detrimental to either of those things, [human] health or environment?
I used the nix package manager for a while, but it's arcane, so I went to MacPorts. Homebrew is obviously the main one, though.
