> Your advice on purposely dovetailing your interests is interesting, especially contrasted with the advice I often hear about not trying to change your partner. Don't expect change, but give it?

It's a very good question and a subtle, sometimes difficult issue. IMHO:

You both are human beings. You both will be able to change in some ways and not in others; you'll be willing to change in some ways, not mind in some others, and not want to change in others (and might find you change anyway). And all change is a matter of degree; it's not binary.

You can't say in foresight what is possible, though some things are obvious. Don't expect that your free-spending, indebted partner will inevitably 'see the light' and adopt your financial discipline; but maybe they will agree to let you handle the checkbook. Your extreme introvert partner probably won't become a social host(ess), but maybe they will learn better social skills or become more comfortable and able in social situations to some degree. Or maybe the introversion will become even stronger, or come and go.

So you can't expect your partner will change in specific ways that suit you and you can't make them do it. You won't be able to change in all the ways you and they wish you could. A necessity at the start is that you happily love and accept each other as is, as real people, with warts, character flaws, and all, even when they suck and make your lives miserable - the other partner's love in those moments can change your lives.

What you can do is both have the trust and good faith to do the best you can for each other and support each other, even if it's not always 'fair' or balanced. Both change what you can and work out what you can't. Maybe you love RTS gaming and your partner doesn't, but maybe you can find interests that you both love and suit both your needs for an escape. That applies to more serious issues too, but hopefully you discuss the most important ones (e.g., kids) before making a commitment. A major step is realizing that there are things in life more important to you than you (especially more important than your pleasure), and if you do change then you'll find that many of those personal 'needs' weren't so important after all. Personally, it's a source of joy to do things for my partner, to see what I've given up and the seemingly infinite reward; it's also a source of pride, a measure of how far we've come.

EDIT: I should add, though, that IME different people have an amazingly wide variety of arrangements, explicit and implicit, in their relationships.
It doesn't need to be downsampled, though -- merely rate-governed.
This is absolutely hilarious. If you're not a professional hunter don't buy a gun, but instead fix the wrongs of society.

Well, I hope the person who follows your advice doesn't have an emergency situation in the next, oh, thousand years, because our current trajectory to a Star Trek utopia is lagging.

In what way would computational neurophysiology not capture emotions? Nobody is claiming that emotions don't exist, but I should hope we can agree that they arise within our neurons.

VPNs cost money. Until it is forced, there isn't much of a point in using a VPN (besides AT&T's wonderful spying track record). VPNs are great but until more are free, it's better to deal with switching a setting.

"knowing" someone is a murderer is actually quite difficult with all the recent discoveries of "junk science" that have historically been used to prove guilt.
I do. As a European you should be aware that when we go into meltdown, it is all the way.

My people were starved to death twice in the 1800s, depopulating the island to half of its original size. It still hasn't recovered to its original size.

Then in the 1900s we had two of the largest wars in human history.

I have no reason to be confident that the 2000s won't suffer similar deprivations.

Yes, about three days. We didn't stop for much, really just gas and dinner, so you can do 10-11 hr days and also get some sleep.
English hyphens are kind of one of the world's worst language features of all time. They're supposed to indicate when two words are being joined together, until people get tired of using the extra symbol and then just drop it altogether and mush the words together into a proper Germanic compound word.

This can happen incredibly fast in linguistic terms -- anybody remember "e-mail"?

Since compounding words happens naturally in English grammar, hyphenation is some weirdo vestigial hangover from the times before English was written with spaces and the "rules" are entirely arbitrary and up to whatever style guide you happened to have studied in school.

In some bizarre twist of fate, hyphenation is on the decline and instead of just compounding two words together like any decent Germanic language, some style guides are encouraging people to keep the words separated with spaces, coming a full 180 degrees from the original use of a mark to compound words for clarity in texts made without spaces.

Is it "on-line", "on line", "online", how about "log-in", "log in", "login"?

It shouldn't go beyond notice that the hyphen seems to exist as a way to prevent compounding in the proper Germanic way, but isn't needed at all for Latin or Greek based compounds or neologisms.

Language prescriptivists can make a real mess of things and really screw the languages up for the rest of us. Trying to Romanize English was a terrible idea.
It is really a simple matter.

I want to help maintain or improve the welfare of those I care about, regardless of scenario.

In order to achieve this outcome, it is usually sufficient to go to work, invest, and partake in mutually fulfilling rituals.

For the edge cases, a gun might be useful. And, in this thread, it is the edge cases that we are discussing.
The care and use of a gun (especially in combat, in close quarters and urban environments) adds multiple layers of complexity.

I would rely on multiple layers of complexity for defense, since that's how modern security design works. A gun is a single point of failure. A shelter or person full of extremely undesirable defenses is more reliable, less dangerous, and probably much easier to stock.
> There's no rational reason not to use dogs for meat...

Yes there is, unless you would make the same argument for having sex with relatives - which philosophers have rationalized against for thousands of years (way before the genetic consequences were understood). Morality is a rationalization. Dogs are genetically predisposed to be man's best friend - friends don't get eaten.

Diamonds don't even come close, there is no positive moral argument - just a fairly recent PR campaign.
There are many people who are completely lost without an IDE, or even without their IDE. Some of them have no idea of what is going on underneath. It is not rare to read such people around here.
Again, for the benefit of those who want to understand, you are smuggling in freewill via the concept "argument". You have no right to use that concept given your denial of freewill and it doesn't matter how many exceptions, qualifications or obfuscations you put on the concept "freewill", it is either a real capacity of our minds or it is not.

The essence of your position is that you are trying to convince me to change my mind and agree with you that I do not have the capacity to change my mind. It is a self-contradiction, as all forms of determinism are, and if you were consistent with your belief you wouldn't be arguing at all, yet here you are. I think (beyond a certain point) denying freewill is an inherently dishonest position but unfortunately you have plenty of company.
> For instance, a prison can't be too nice, lest it turns into a free vocational school and people will find committing crimes and getting caught to be an excellent way to get education.

If this turns out to be a serious problem then perhaps your society has other issues it should be dealing with?

'Nice' prisons certainly seem to work pretty well in Norway: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2013/feb/25/norwegian-pr...
To each their own, I find it great !

That 80s sound is back in force at the moment (under the "synthwave" moniker). Think Stranger Things OST.

Also, this one fits the Windows 3 nostalgia theme nicely (okay, not quite 90s music but still retro)
Could there be any connection to the moon's current proximity to Earth? Does anyone know to what extent the moon's gravity can influence earthquakes? Tides are one thing, but it seems plausible that the moon being closer to earth than it has been in 68 years could be moving the plates a bit more than usual.
Thanks for your comment.

It seems that there are many unreported rapes in American prisons. When you read the real stories and how wardens don't care or enable such system, your faith in human nature is over. You realize how fucked up bureocrats are. If Americans – liberals and conservatives – truly cared about human rights they would have started a riot about such issues years ago. They set up a mass whining for the new president of US in less than 24 hours, people clearly don't care about the inhuman treatment of prisoners. Read the testimony of activist Stephen Donaldson. http://articles.latimes.com/1994-05-20/news/ls-60064_1_priso...
Or you can buy a gun and then get training before you start using it on your own.
> If we're dead-set on continuing to use pretty rocks as signals

Why do we need signals? Why does the social contract of marriage need an expensive down payment on essentially nothing? These are things modern cultures should be distancing themselves from. The down payment should be for a house or apartment, or just anything useful.
My bag weighs 35 lbs. It's two weeks of food for two people, 3 litres of water and a bunch of stuff like a radio, flashlight, water purification kit etc.

I like the idea, but I think this kind of thing feels obtuse in languages like C# and Java where the "templates" are 100% written with the hosted language.

Some languages can work around this by having flexible type definitions and syntax to make the DSL much closer to the target template (for an example, see: http://www.lihaoyi.com/scalatags/). This works pretty well to avoid all those field declaration and "new" keywords.
Why do you think I personally have infringed the Constitution?
Horse meat is quite normal in western culture, unless if by western culture you mean anglophone countries.
Normally the smaller stuff. Eg for Python/data science in London there's a meetup.com miniconf that gets hosted in various company offices and you just sign up and turn up and listen to some cool people talk about whatever mad science they've been up to. Good places to find jobs/people too.
Are there still apps for Windows 3 people would use on modern OS'? I'm under the impression you would run a VM if you really must, until/if when you make a transition.
I think it was very revealing that they never had this setting for a long time, despite it being available in just about every other browser before then...
Well yeah, but it would be helpful to get the training and work with someone to find which gun to buy. Getting training lets you fire a variety under supervision which will improve your chances of liking what you buy.
It should be illegal. Same as unnecessary data caps.

> It's very easy to justify going the no-diamond route, sure. From a financial point of view, it's just a bad idea.

Going with the nuts advice of spending a month's salary (or more!), yeah, that is awful, but, as I did, you can buy a diamond ring for less than < 1k (Canadian!). I'd have preferred not buy anything, but as you said, being reasonable in your relationship is about understanding what your partner values as well and try to reach a middle ground.
> As Stallman would point out, GPL is Free Software, not OSS.

Yes I know that, you know that, but it had positioned itself (deliberately) as the first choice & was very effective at it.

Or put another way: a PC doesn't have to include Windows but there's a reason the campaign was Mac vs PC not Mac vs Windows.

Also you seem to think I care what Stallman thinks or wants. I really don't.
I was part of the first response for the Christchurch earthquake providing technical support and co-workers in my old job are trained USAR engineers that were deployed overnight. But most of this information is from the NZ media. We aren't talking high fatalities, but USAR are looking for a couple of missing people and there are buildings that have collapsed, people were also stuck under a vat in a winery and had to be cut out. There are two people dead but not much information is coming out of the most effected area because most communications are down.

I love how you downplay the act of someone robbing you of your food supply which could very possibly lead to you and your families starvation.
There was a lot of of money spent on remediating and testing computer systems during the 90's.

Governments had plans within plans and conducted drills. Shareholders asked CEO's what their Y2K plans were during AGM's.

Not surprising that the effect was low.

To this day, I wonder if our over-preparedness for Y2K is why we are so complacent about climate change.
Care to elaborate on the Seattle-freeze? I'm about to relocate to the region. Is it really that bad?
If you had to program by point-and-click, I think you'd find it very slow and cumbersome (in spite of valiant efforts to make this kind of thing work, like lighttable). Your immediate reaction in the face of a task to do something conceptually simple, but with an annoying number of little steps, is to reach for a programming language and build it in your IDE. It would be more convenient, really, if you had an IDE that was specifically designed to work with all the other applications on your system, rather than just with whatever language you're using and its libraries. And there is such a thing: the shell! With things like tab-completion, history, aliases, and man pages, the unix command line interface basically already is an IDE. While I don't yet have enough experience with it to say for sure, it seems like PowerShell is intended to be similar, even going so far as to have a literal IDE (PowerShell ISE).

There's a reason why IDEs always seem to have a built-in terminal, and why those which didn't at first seem to grow terminal-like capabilities, like VS Code's command palette.
The ethical argument for the adoption of artificial beef is always brought out during these stories. But they forget to mention that the lab grown meat only contains lean meat cells and in order to make it taste good they need to add animal fat. As in, fat from farmed and slaughtered animals.
You seem to be describing a non-standard way of salting hashes, and in the case of modifying the case, an extremely poor way of doing it. Please don't do that.

The media is going to rediscover 2nd life in the "VR" age. Swell.
Well, I only have Wifi access points, I don't know what will be missing from switches/routers.

I'd have a doubt about these features for instances: 802.1x, some VLAN stuff, rate limiting/traffic shaping, ACL, OSPF, BGP, LCAP.

And even if they're adversited as "present" in the datasheet, that doesn't necessarily mean that they are fully functional. Plus there is no CLI for the configuration.

"I've never seen a reboot to change an SSID password."

I've never seen that except with ubiquiti. And I guarantee you that ALL access points do reboot at the same time. To add to the pain, they take > 10 minutes to come back online so it's really painful.
As mine is too. Just tried it and it said incorrect. Maybe it's some set of old legacy users? But that wouldn't make sense since I'm migrated in from WaMu
One thing that's really useful is Weck Jars[0]. They're reusable glass jars with a rubber seal you put food in, then you boil them in water. This disinfects the food, and creates a hermetic seal. From what I've heard they've found Weck jars that were decades old, and when opened, they were still edible (even though taste suffered a little). They're also generally handy, because with some jars and a large stockpot for canning, you can have any dish within 15 minutes (cook noodles, drain, add butter to pot, add noodles back in, pour in 1 jar of goulash).

Disclaimer: They were founded in my home village of 150 people, so I'm a bit of a Weck shill.

Then there's staples that keep for a while. Rice, Beans, Flour, dry Noodles. Special mention to potatoes, which are delicious and rich in Vitamin C. Salt is also very handy.

Then, cans you can buy pre-canned. Sauerkraut, Pickles, etc.

Without using too much space, this can easily last you a month or two, and you can set up a revolving pantry. Most important, it adds convenience even without a disaster occuring.

Water prep is something that you generally don't have to do till there is a disaster. It's prudent to keep around some water disinfecting tablets or a jug of Chlorine. Interesting fact, if you're in a pinch, your hot water heater will contain up to 50 gallons of potable water. Shut off the inflow valve and open a faucet to access it.

Medical supplies are also something to think about. Antibiotics, gauze, suturing kits, disinfectant.

Tools. A full set of tools may come in handy in case of supply-chain breakdown. They're also handy in case of other breakdowns.

Power. You could look at getting a small gasoline powered generator. Or installing solar with some kind of powerbank. If you're going for full off-grid power, cooling&heating generally use the most power. Ditch the AC, install ceiling fans, replace your fridge with a chest freezer and a brewing thermometer.

Arms. You got yourself a gun, yo I'm living in these times behind enemy lines...decide whether that's something you need.

Knowledge. Go buy some manuals, keep them as physical copies or on an e-reader with a solar charger, or both. The entirety of the English Wikipedia can be compressed down to about 55GB[1]. Go take some courses.

> So if she insist, don't be angry at her - be angry at De Beers.

By doing so, you're ignoring her agency and her role in the problem. It's not like DeBeers has some kind of mind control laser pointed at the brains of every woman in the world. They put out advertising, and some people fall for it.

If you need to be angry about something, be angry about our education system which fails to teach people to think critically about what they see on their glowing god-screens.
Can you clarify as to why owning a gun, as both a casual hobby and means of defense for unlikely scenarios, is "utter insanity"? And why do you believe gun owners view themselves as "prepping [...] for some Mad Max bullshit scenario"? Otherwise, using such language strongly discredits your already weak argument.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough before. I'm not expecting advertisers to respect the wishes of individuals. I am suggesting that there should be some form of user control over video auto-plays. The question is what form this user control should take.

For example, perhaps whitelists for domains that are permitted to have audio content could be a good solution. These whitelists could be controlled by the user. You would then only opt-in to sites that had content you wanted to listen to.
There was a seismologist talking about that this morning. There is an effect that correlates with lunar cycles, but it is a very faint signal in a lot of random noise.

So it might cause some faults that are about to rupture to release a bit earlier than otherwise, but it's not a useful predictor of anything.
I'm an idiot?

Try being transgender and denied access to bathrooms and you might find the issue slightly more pressing than it sounds. Separate but equal doesn't work for racial minorities, why should students accept it with other minorities?

> She's not worth the $3k to you?

This is one of the most manipulative arguments I've heard from people. I can't put a price on what my wife or son are worth to me, yet, I'd not buy something just at any price because my wife or son want it. Thankfully I was in a position to talk to my wife and she just wanted something symbolic so we went with something for less than 1k. Another good argument to bring in this situation is to show you're willing to spend the money, just not on something like a diamond, offer perhaps take her to a ver nice vacation.
> Ok, but if you don't have training don't buy a gun.

The great thing about firearms is that they enable a relatively untrained person to adequately defend themselves against a trained attacker.

By all means get training - but don't let that stop you.

Only sort of. We have the whole dynamic of pushing out the date buildings are supposed to be meeting requirements, and dodgy engineers signing off on buildings that are below target NBS.
Meanwhile someone else probably paid $150 for a $10 ring ... I wonder if they ever found out.
Don't worry, I'd supplement my diet from my garden.

I think it is worth having a root cellar. I was always impressed as a young boy by Badger in Wind and the Willows. The illustrations in the books used to show all the sacks of potatoes and onions he had and I remember being very impressed by his hideaway. Pretty sure he had a shotgun as well.

The exact quote is "You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy."

This is a description of sexual assault. I'm really saddened by how many Americans are so deep in rape culture that they cannot see that.
