Thanks for sharing your experience. My set of problems are different but I noticed my experience has been somewhat similar to yours. I'm working in therapy on acceptance and recognizing the internal shaming that came about because of my upbringing.

The frustrating part is that my relationship with my wife (who suffers from borderline personality disorder) makes it extremely difficult when she is fighting the new me that is emerging. She needs constant reassurance about going better places in the future and doesn't like that I'm starting to be ok with the present. The other day I tried to get something done but couldn't since she needed to talk for 6 hours on her day off work and the talk wasn't going the way she liked so it escalated and she got suicidal. She keeps arguing with me to go to a big tech company and make enough money so she never has to work and can be at home with the kids all the time but she's been a stay at home mom before and it ends up being her sitting at home stewing with anger and neglecting the kids and the house. It's hard to make real progress when it is met with so much resistance by loved ones

There are numerous good reasons to buy a truck or SUV that supersede the question of emissions. Absolutely, the question of emissions should be on the list of considerations, but unless one can understand all the buying reasons/decisions for a particular buyer, one should not rush to judge.

>may be a little much to get actual work done.

Sounds like a good thing then to filter out non-universally good ideas and a great measure to make it harder to buy politicians. Gov needs to do less, not more.
correlation != causation.
This must vary from country to country. The adventures I participated in with scouts were not even remotely as adventurous as some school trips and holidays.
The Oracle site responds with a 503 when trying to download any JDK 8 artifact.
Because they hate parens so much they spent a $ to eliminate them.
I'm Dutch and have spent several years as a scout myself, and know several others who have done the same. I've never seen anyone getting looked down upon for that. Perhaps you'll be made fun of if the scouts in your country include merit badges and you keep showing them to everyone, but in that case you kind of deserve it...

The polls were national polls and she won the popular vote.
>It's really not clear it actually exists.

It's pretty clear if you're a Trump supporter.
Which brings us to the end of the thought process: different people (are equipped to?) perceive situations differently & react differently. If the scouts prepared me to not be afraid of being thrown out of my home, or the army gave me the means to survive in life threatening situations, I think it's an even greater sign of character, or maybe just discipline and maturity, to recognise serious situations which aren't the same as dying. After all, your training as a soldier or scout will mean nothing, if you haven't accepted that the things it prepares you for are (or will be) actually a problem.

In my mind, that's not a different perspective. It's the same perspective, applied elsewhere.

yeh so, I was not at all trying to defend Hillary, at all, as I mentioned in the first sentence, so I'm not sure why I need to reagree with you on all of this you just said, because I do, entirely, which is why me and almost every female I know, most of whom are highly educated and work in tech/male dominated fields, did not vote for her. I agree with you about this and so do most of the women I know.

She absolutely embodies the outdated and old school corrupt version of aggressive angry corrupt feminism and was riding on the idea of being a female but outside of that was not a compelling candidate, and was a bad choice for females in the first place.

I would love to see a Female President in my lifetime, but a qualified one who sets a good example for women not validating an outdated extremist feminist gone awry version.

However, that is unrelated in my opinion about the degrading and vulgar comments Trump has made about his female employees, and Hillary is unrelated to the men that have personally spoken to me that way, who are only going to feel further validated by this election.

I absolutely agree with you about this, and I think this happening to Hillary is a good thing, because it is an impetus for women to actually change and not just cry "I'm a woman".

I don't get respect from the men I work with because I am a woman and play the gender card, I get respect from the men I work with because my work is up to par and I DONT play that card.

With that being said, every guy I work with for the past few days has gone out of their way to make it clear to me they do not support men who talk to women the way Trump has spoken of woman, because they view me as a real person who is capable of being hurt by comments like this, not a freebie that comes in a party launch goodie bag, and NONE of them want to be associated with it.

But yes, I agree with you regarding Hillary's campaign.

Definitely, even if you hate them you have to work with the rest of your patrol and make your situation as good as possible, whether that be by stringing up tarps, building tripods to hang your stuff on, making an axe yard, or caring for Mike who is having yet another asthma attack/seizure/hypothermia/etc.

I was lucky enough to be in a large, non-religous troop that happened to have a bus & be very well organized (4 Junior Assistant Scoutmasters!), definitely a great experience, only wish I had gotten further than life.
There is a selection bias issue here. E.g. if there were some underling genetic disorder that causes anxiety, then that person is less likely to join a group.
This notion, Bernie would have definitely beaten Trump is just a ludicrous assumption. 66% americans view socialism very negatively and Trump would have the same message against Bernie that he hadn't done anything in the last 40 years of public service. Only thing that would be going for Bernie would be his "trustworthiness".
I recently went to an army reserve training for 13 days.

It was intense but really great. Days were from 6AM to 21pm. I really appreciated how everything was structured and very organized. Pressure was there and could be felt, the purpose was to learn everything a soldier needs to know, so the purpose was clear and well defined. You could not hang there and pretend that you don't understand why you're learning this or that.

Everything was demonstrated, explained and shown.

What I remember from these two weeks is how 3 guys started threatening me because they thought I reported the showers not being cleaned properly, while I was just talking about using flip flops in showers.

Lack of popularity caught up on me, and a guy threw a fake grenade at me, and I went to emergency care but lost no hearing, but could not complete the training, so I came back disappointed, but still happy of those 2 weeks since most of my scores were okay.

So like usual, those types of programs are great, but unless you prevent people from behaving like predators, people won't take is seriously.
Defund all 'social research'. This article is should be proof enough of all the money and opportunity lost, not to mention harmful influence on policies, on make work research.
Some of that really depends on the problem and the language. I program Java full time, yet I'd be useless with vi. I lean heavily on the IDE. I've done this a long time and I firmly believe that I should use the best tools available, not just a text editor or a TEXTAREA, even with syntax highlighting.

Having suffered through a couple code interviews in Java, I now pick Python when allowed to pick a language. It seems like the language for me that allows me the best chance of coding effectively without an IDE.

I just did a phone screen yesterday that was extremely painful. After 45 minutes of fumbling around the thing mercifully ended and I googled for a few solutions. According to what I read on stack overflow, the problem is unsolvable with the constraints given. I expect to get the "no thanks" email from the recruiter soon and I plan on asking him what the proposed solution to the problem was - not out of spite, but because I'm genuinely curious. Maybe I misunderstood the problem statement.
Expectations of the Development Stage
That's kind of my point! The arbitrage of working for a company in a US tech hub while living outside of a US tech hub. It could be done living domestically here too, but abroad is more interesting. (However, given the discussion, maybe this is just a case of "the grass is always greener on the other side".)
Alcohol certainly contributes to depression. It also causes a great deal of social harm. If you heatmap crime in a city bars are often the epicenters of violent crime. Factor in that the majority of sexual assaults and domestic abuse cases involve alcohol and I'm not sure what your argument is.
You want him to choose his own path but are keeping him from interacting with others who share a different world view to yourself? It seems more like you've chosen the philosophical and theological positions for him and want to lock him away from other influences.

That would appear to be "religious [fundamentalist] atheism".

Hiding our kids from other ideologies to me is like hiding them from danger (using knives say) - they need exposure to it in order to learn a good approach and how to handle it.

FWIW I was an atheist cub scout (UK), atheist Scout, agnostic Venture Scout, and ultimately a Christian cub leader... but I'm almost certain the exposure to Christian ideals in Scouting had nothing to do with my conversion. The closest we got to theological influence was as teenagers badgering our leaders as to why we had to make a promise to a God we didn't believe in.

Groups vary of course, in the UK the greatest influence is probably the individual leader. Last I knew leaders had to be monotheist, I expect that's changed now.

The church parades of my youth would convince anyone that Christianity were baloney.

tl;dr don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
Does a foxhole protect from the overpressure blast of a nuclear explosion? With fragmentation grades, you're getting behind cover that will absorb the shards before they hit you--cover can't do anything about a wave of pressure.
Ahh yes, this is very interesting although I agree with many of the posters here that the model is probably too simplistic even for demo purposes.

For programmers there are even more striking examples of AI out there, complete with code, documentation and explanations.

In me this sparked a months long fascination with genetic algorithms solving programming puzzles with a few sets of 'initial memory states' and 'desired memory states'.

The articles start with very simplistic generated programs, and end with a sophisticated model able to generate guess-the-number games using loops, conditionals and handling input from users.
>And Trump is a racist bigot, you simply cannot deny it.

There you go with the name calling again. How about you listen to Trump supporters for once. Or maybe you just don't want to know the real reason why Trump supporters supported Trump.

Stop talking and start listening.
Luckily the German healthcare system is solid enough that it's exceedingly rare for people to end up in life-threatening situations because of quack doctors. And in his defence, he did send people to real doctors if they had real medical issues.

Look, I grew up with this nonsense. My grandparents even believed in new age non-sense like "earth rays" and astrology. If you just want to get out some witticisms about how pseudoscience is obviously pseudoscience that's fine by me. But I'm not sure you're adding anything to the conversation by ragging on my dead grandfather.

If you want to be outraged about something, how about being outraged that social public healthcare in Germany actually pays for homeopathic "medicine" (i.e. products with no active ingredients and no valid studies) and that pharmacies are allowed to claim these so-called remedies can actually alleviate specific symptoms.

Because this is his position on global warming:

"Well, I think the climate change is just a very, very expensive form of tax. A lot of people are making a lot of money. I know much about climate change. ... "
"NBC News just called it the great freeze - coldest weather in years. Is our country still spending money on the GLOBAL WARMING HOAX?"
"I don’t believe in climate change."
"The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."

The world is much more fucked than it was previously. Because with the US out, there is no way we'll be able to reach a world-wide agreement to reduce CO2 emissions enough to not cause catastrophic climate change.
C puzzles
You should meet some Finns. They generally speak excellent English.
Part of it is you are forced to work through those kinds of issues in a hostile environment (outdoors, in the cold & wet with raccoons, bears, etc depending where your at) with other kids who are apt to get on your nerves after a while. Either you come out a more rounded person who can deal with shit blowing up in your face & making something amazing out of said explosion, or you stop showing up to go on monthly outings.
There is a female Romanian Engineer who works in my department, a bit older and she said she never encountered sexism even being an issue until she came to America ten years into her Engineering career, and that in Europe being a female engineer was no big deal, welcomed like you said but not biased one way or the other, and she has pointed out that America has a weird issue with sexism shes never experienced working anywhere in Europe, so I find it interesting you echo the same observations.

With that being said, I'd love to work in Europe, maybe I should check that out aha.
This! Its about being responsible for yourself. That teaches worlds of healthy attitude.

One of my Scouts likes long-range bicycling (mountains, centuries etc). He had engraved on the headset of his bike "There's only one way to get home" to remind himself that its all up to him.

Finishing projects is a skill on itself; the article is right on focusing on what is really important, but I'm not so sure all the points are as useless as the author is presenting them.

The points in the article is quite fair, but I'd disagree with the newbies part. A great learner will always dig deep and therefore propably would not need jQuery to succeed.
Why not, instead of putting them on Social Security, subsidize the installation of solar and wind generation facilities in areas that previously were economically driven by coal mining, and then provide training programs so those displaced miners instead are attractive to employers as workers that can manage and maintain the new electricity generation networks? A single coal-fired power plant can generate far more electricity than a single solar panel or wind turbine, and keeping those up and running will need a lot more hands.

Exploitation: XML External Entity (XXE) Injection
I've talked to plenty of people who voted for Trump. To be completely frank, many of their reasons boil down to emotional garbage like "he tells it like it is" / he "speaks for the common guy". But who is this common guy? In America, it's a white guy.

The people who voted for Trump voted for him despite the obvious and endlessly apparent evidence that he is sexist, racist, and generally an awful person. What can be said about that? Again, if these voters are so disenchanted with the establishment, why did they reelect so many incumbent senators and representatives? Why did they vote for a guy who is stacking his WH with careerists?

To be honest, I think this whole 'disenchanted with the establishment' narrative is missing the focus on the establishment it seems they really hate - the establishment of the first black president.

From whether it's saying things like "Oh Tim is so well spoken, not like his other black friends" or viewing any black male as a potential criminal, Americans, as a whole, are incredibly racist even if they don't "mean" to be. Trump's election is proof of that.

Both my brother and I were scouts in France in the 2000s, so it is fairly recent, but the situation might be different to the one in UK, the organization and the authorities being different. There is not a strong emphasis on bullying protection (as far as I know since I never been on the organization side of things), perhaps because there are different priorities or because it is not perceived as being a widespread problem.

I don’t have kids yet, but I think that scouting is a good option. Still, the experience one child will have will vary wildly from one scout association to the other and one local organization to the other, mostly because it depends a lot on the people he will end up with.

Also congrats on your engagement ! I always had a lot of respect for those who helped run our groups.
Dutch scout here, I've been a scout since I was 7 and I'm now 28 and a cub scout leader (kids aged 7-11).

Being in scouting can be perceived (in NL at least) as for nerds/geeks or 'corny' (don't know what is a good translation for the Dutch 'oubollig')

Especially when the kids hit puberty (the scouts/guides age), this negative image thing among school peers can be a reason for kids to quit.
When I was that age, I didn't really care about much of that sort of talk and really enjoyed my time at scouting. Although there definitely was a negative image among school peers.

The image is changing for the better though. I certainly would not hide it.

I heard some nice stories from the scouts/guides at high school telling they hiked through the woods for the weekend with a backpack and went canyoning etc, while their non-scout peers only played video games inside.

When I was older and went to university, I noticed a lot of people did scouts when they were little kids. Not sure why they quit.

The social aspect is definitely a plus in some professions.
Which parts of his policies/campaign/platform are racist?
What a lie this is..

In reality there is the decade old problem that the Dutch justice system cannot handle the amount of criminals. Not enough judges and money for that.

Partly because of this it has become very hard in the Netherlands to even file a police report for light to medium weight crimes committed to you. Police simply send you away if a crime is not heavy enough in their opinion. Criminals walk free on the street, and when they are caught they most often are back on the street the same day, unless it is a real serious crime of course.

At some point they even decided not to file a police report below 3Kg of cocaine smuggling from the Dutch Antilles. Why? There were just too many doing it and the justice system couldn't handle it..

The Netherlands in reality has a very high crime rate, but the government found smart ways to conceal that.
How to Build Fabulous Software That Matters – Expert Advice
Yup, everybody's different, nothing wrong with that! I appreciate people who do the work you do, but not every software company does websites at all. And even of those who do, plenty have grown to the point that off-the-shelf doesn't work anymore and some specialization is of greater value. (Think Uber, Slack, etc)

I agree with your second paragraph completely.
A better way of doing a will.
I see your point, but the current system encourages states to use a winner-takes-all system because it maximizes the influence of that state, which is hardly ideal. It'd be a shame to pass up on a good system (or one that is better than the one you are using now, in my opinion) just so you can forever experiment around with individual states. "Perfect" is the enemy of "good" and all that.

Just a note, it appears this was conducted in the UK which doesn't have a bear population, and barely has a raccoon population.
There are three key groups at work in the legislation: legislators, the professional staff on whom legislators rely, and lobbyists.

Reducing the average level of experience in the particular legislative institution, and in legislative affairs generally, of the first group increase the relative advantage in systematic knowledge and effectiveness of the latter two groups compared to the first.

Term limits aren't sortition (it's not random, and political parties and the donor class are actively involved in choosing who stands for seats and how much support they have, so, the effects you point to in sortition of breaking up factionsome and reducing corruption simply aren't present.) And, in any case, the level of complexity of a modern nation of 300+ million people different considerably from that of ancient Athens.
The thing is, anxiety or dis-enchantment and racism and sexism aren't mutally exclusive.

If you vote for someone how is racist and sexist, then you are part of the problems that racism and sexism are. Sure you vote for diffrent reasons, but you effectivly say "It's okay to be a racist as long as you help me to feed my kids"
