Where I'm from the attitude is mostly "If you have time for this, it must mean you don't have real problems in life. Ain't nobody got time for mental health when shit hits the fan and there are hungry mouths to feed"

I like the "don't be a victim" attitude, but it's a very trial by fire kind of thing. We have one of the highest suicide rates in europe.

Both the general attitude and the suicide rate have been improving in the recent decade or two. Emphasis is on therapy rather than pharmaceuticals.

KeePass is great - no connection to the cloud, so can't get attacked. Though putting it on Dropbox or Onedrive sort of defeats the purpose.

LastPass is great but there was a breach last year, in which they claim nothing was compromised and they offer a free plan.

Oh on iOS you will need to turn on location tracking otherwise the nag screen about how wonderful enabling location services is seems to prevent the app showing the menu button...

I think there is a need to regulate how data is used in internet companies. I mean there is the same need for NSA and surveillance, but I'm much more anxious about how a company can be irresponsible compared to a federal agency.

Every time you have customer's information, the people responsible for giving access to that data should be held responsible...

I am an Indian immigrant living in America. I think what you said is very true.

There is even more stigma about "mental health" issues in India so we might not label many things as mental issues, but people are generally more supportive and social, even a little intrusive into others lives. When a friend is having issues, their social group will actively try to get them to socialize, talk about stuff and cheer them up. They will insist that you don't go under the radar and disappear.

The American attitude of extreme individuality, personal limits seems kind of ridiculous to me at times. Like I don't even understand what the hell a friend is supposed to be if you can't be honest with them when you're down. Someone to share some good times with is a fair-weather friend, but not at all the same thing as a genuine friend. Sometimes it feels like you have to constantly live with a mask on, even with friends and family. And then when you get lonely and tired of the mask, you are supposed to find a soulmate who will be the sole person you are allowed to be honest and seek help from.. sometimes its not enough.

You know a major component in many mental illnesses is letting people isolate themselves. And mental illnesses have been around forever, but they were dealt with by help from society around you. This is an innate, human thing. There is an epidemic of loneliness and isolation in western societies because of the extreme individualism everywhere.

Finally, its fucking ridiculous the amount of trust people have in "authorities". "No we won't talk to you about your mental issues because fuck you, but hey why don't you go pay to talk to a stranger instead"? What? Why is that better? Isn't a friend/family member much better positioned to understand your problems and offer some perspective?

Of course, the Indian way has some problems too. One, a shit-ton of stigma and judgement by broader society if they find out. And at some point you're supposed to just "man up and get your shit together". And mental health doctors are still not trusted at all. Although, given the recent state of psych studies and the replication failures, they might just be right.

(IANAL) it is my understanding that kickbacks from drug companies to doctors are pretty legal in US - or there is a very technical line between legal and illegal kickback in pharma/doctor relationship that regular people like us don't recognize it.

And don't get me wrong, i'm not against sending a bunch of pharma execs to a country club - i just think that so few of them are sent there that situation looks more like politically motivated selective enforcement of the law than full fledged justice.
Yes, I am not the author of the article though. I just shared it because I always wondered if Lambda was good enough for hobby projects and how much it would cost.

Generally, 2 million API calls per month will come around Max 10 requests per second (considering peak times as the requests will not be spread out evenly over time). Even a self-hosted $10 Digital Ocean instance could handle it with Node.js.

But the way the author has set up his application, getting started with highly available infrastructure with highly available DB with a possibility of 100 concurrent lambda executions is interesting. And one can get started with this in $11-$12 is very interesting indeed.

If you haven't even tried different wifi channels, it's not a valid critique, is it? Especially for such a complicated device that doesn't do any handholding for you.

How to Protect Wifi Password from Hacker?
hello!
Assalam O Alaikum!
i am new user on this web.
i am so worried because some one hack my wifi password and Abusage me. Please Help me
Interesting. Lots of picky responses here--people prepared to wait it out and go through tons of candidates looking for perfection: Need this language. And that platform. Must know such and such database. And DevOps. Front end and backend. Full stack. And these four key abilities. And passion. Prepare for the interview. Be ready to explain this and that. Be good at whiteboard coding. Went through 400 candidates.

If you can sit back and pick and choose like this, then how does that square with the mythical "shortage of engineers" everyone complains about?
Cool, I will ping you there.

> Apple’s emphasis on fashion and Pebble’s on productivity and third-party innovation were costly detours—the smartwatch market is rooted in health and fitness.

I'm not sure this is accurate. Pebble sold relatively well. They just couldn't get more customers beyond a certain point. It's a niche market.

Fitness trackers become obsolete quickly. They tend to be relatively cheap and there are a lot of sensors and software that can be iterated on to justify selling newer versions of the same product every year to the same people.

When the Pebble Steel came out, I gave my original Pebble away. The only reason I switched was that I liked the design of the new one better, the original still worked just as well as the new one.

When the Pebble Time Steel came out, I switched again and again the one I had at the time worked fine. The Pebble Time Steel had some new features but mostly it did much of the same.

I passed when the Pebble 2 came out because I couldn't justify paying again for a replacement to something that still worked as good as on the first day. The Pebble 2 brought some fitness features but was otherwise no different from what I already had.

Fitness trackers have planned obsolescence. The tech becomes outdated very quickly and the conditions in which they are used lend themselves to natural wear and tear. Utilitarian smartwatches on the other hand are expected to last.

Pebble sold me three smartwatches in almost as many years. They actually marketed four[0] more in that time. They oversaturated the market and grossly overestimated the demand.

Their first Kickstarter generated $10MM, their second in early 2015 generated $20MM, their third generated $12MM. Considering they were falling in the red in 2015 and their 2016 campaign was doubling down on the fitness aspect and bombed in comparison to 2015, I don't buy the narrative that fitness tracking would have been a better focus.

[0]: To recap: Pebble, Pebble Steel, Pebble Time, Pebble Time Steel, Pebble Time Round, Pebble 2, Time 2 and Pebble Core (which is not a smartwatch). The 2016 Kickstarter also saw the edition of silver/gold editions of the Pebble Round but those seem otherwise identical to the original.

> The Information reports that Google’s self-driving car unit — known internally as Chauffeur — is working with establish automotive names to develop cars which will include some self-driving features, but won’t ditch the steering wheel and pedal controls.

Check out black screen – it's still very unstable, but it's trying something much bolder than hyper.

Hyper is okay, although I'm not sure what the actual advantages currently are compared to iTerm, and it being an electron app, it comes with the usual problems (i. e. being terribly slow if there's a lot of output).

It's promise is the ability to easily create extensions with js/html/css, wich should, in theory, allow for some really new ideas to be quickly implemented. But as of now, it's still playing catch-up to iTerm.
Well, given how deep its pockets are and its past propensity to try on big projects, I'd say it was surprising.

What's more surprising is that both Apple and Google seem to have ended up in this same place.
Yes. I agree with not hearing the lie. It's like breaking the 4 minute mile. I've heard that after the first record break, tens other followed in the first year. I am sure this was so because of a new mindset and had nothing to do with groundbreaking new physical abilities.

---

But now I've heard the lie. I can't 'unhear' it. That horse is out of the barn. This is my position. What are my options considering I hear these lies all the time?

The best thing I've got is asking myself and others 'why is this so?'. I'm doing this enough times and find a lot of BS and made up 'laws'. Mind you, it aggravates people when they realize their firm beliefs are on quicksand. And they project this onto you. One has to be careful.

Yes, maybe I do give credit to a system. But just enough to get ammo against it if necessary. Going meta, I just gave you some credit, enough to deflect/defuse your argument.

How about what you say may be a lie? That is, the thing about having no chance of doing anything once you hear the 'lie'. That you always need a fresh/uncorrupted approach to find that the earth is in fact round.

What if you don't need to believe it? What if all you need is changing it slightly and questioning its veracity?

The best answer I've got about this is this: "if it helps you - go on and accept/do/etc it".
Well, honestly, I have a sort of inferiority complex when it comes to applying to Google. It's like Atlantis to me.

Want to know how much network data is been used by your MAC
Some help for anyone looking into DD-WRT. I use it on 2 routers (a dirt cheap TP-link and a higher end Netgear) for >3 years. Both have been stable and performant. No known issues. Things are definitely better than stock firmware.

The approach I took:

- When you're new to DD-WRT, look up your router in the database on their website. Take some time to read about installation (and maybe configuration) on their wiki. I never bricked any routers, but I can imagine taking it one step at a time prevents some headaches. Using their website search will lead you to builds which are a few years old (might differ for newer routers). I installed those initially. It might not be a bad idea to start with those as they probably match the documentation.

- But, you can also update with newer beta versions. They gave me the same stability and performance. You'll get more options and a nicer interface, but presumably also security fixes. Find those through their FTP [0]. Be sure to read which exact build you need in the wiki.

So all in all a bit rough, but worth the effort. You'll get basically the same options as the OP.

It seems a bit strange to go the software only route when Tesla and Uber already have working hardware & software.

Apple and Google missed the chance to spend their piles of cash and buy either Tesla or Uber. Now it is too late. All four are going to be battling head-to-head.
I can't and don't want to judge American/Western/whatever attitude towards these serious problem, but I've 2 cents to add:

> Isn't a friend/family member much better positioned to understand your problems and offer some perspective?

While full support from your social environment is important, seeking good professional help is even more important. The more serious the mental issue, the less friendliness can substitute proper therapy.
I'd say that really depends on how many clients you have. At my company we have ~150, you can't always get back within 24hrs.
It's fascinating to see Google and (purportedly) Apple move in a similar direction away from developing their own actual cars and instead building the software platform. It makes a lot of sense for Google, who have always struggled with selling products direct to consumers. It is more surprising for Apple, but makes sense if you look at how they can add the most value.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out. Are cars going to be (even more) commoditised at the low end and differentiated by the platform on top of it (Apple, Google, Tesla) in the same way phone carriers were commoditised by the iPhone? My gut is that they won't (industrial design is a huge part of choosing a car manufacturer), so the dynamics between platform and carrier (Toyota, Fiat Chrysler, etc) are going to be fascinating to see unfold. The traditional car industry moves at such a glacial pace, yet you have two tech titans ceding a lot of control to them.

Of course, you then have the "apps" that will run on top of them, like Uber. How they interplay with it all is another dimension too. Tesla has fired the first shot here by restricting usage of non-Tesla car pooling services. It is a worrying thought to think that buying a BMW might mean I'm locked into only renting out my car through Apple-approved car riding services (and while I can't see Apple creating their own car pooling service, never say never).

Tesla seems to be the only player doing the entire stack from top to bottom. Very reminiscent of early Apple.
Any suggestions? I've a top of the line macbook and the two things it has the hardest time handling are Chrome and Slack...
I think Chrome needs to start thinking more about performance and design.
Often what gets lost in these kinds of discussions is the difference between what is theoretical and what is practical. Yes, you can have a perfectly designed REST API which has all of these features.

What happens, though, when you want a new piece of data? Do you redesign the API to fit this new piece of information into it or do you make a new endpoint? What if the new piece of data doesnt actually belong with `friends` but if you do the fetch for friends and this new piece of data at the same time you can get a performance boost? Do you make a new endpoint `friendsandfamily`?

Now, what if you want to migrate all calls over to that endpoint, you now need to figure out if any of your frontend code or legacy systems are still using that old endpoint before you remove it.

The maintenance of that system is much higher because you've conflated what data you want with how you want to get it.
I think he does.

We must let go delusional thinking that with current AI we can safely throw autonomous car in a dense urban area.

Agreed for more serious problems. But if you have a milder problem, maybe a little bit of depression or anxiety I think social help is more effective than professional help. And that is the more common case.

Yes, the world is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. Lots of things to be improved. If you could choose another time to live in, when would it be?
That's a shame really, because I'm sure most of us would prefer companies weren't restricted by regulation and were just sensible and ethical by default, so laws weren't necessary.

Interesting. I prefer regulation by default to be honest. Possibly shows my biases from growing up and living in Europe. I see regulation as something you should start with not something you should end up having to do. Just like I prefer civil laws to be in place by default rather than leaving it to people to be good to each other.

Maybe I'm in the minority here.
You don't have to. You can do it much cheaper with Ubiquiti's products. EdgeRouter X + AP AC (Pro)
> test function return "good" whenever it sees a commit with merge conflicts

That's a terrible idea and would completely break bisect. You should signal "skip" (return code 125) if the commit can not be tested at all.
> it's worth pointing out that the question was not "do they predict success", but "do they predict success controlling for pedigree"

This is a valid social question. As a hirer, however, you are measured by your success, not your success benchmarked to some other thing.
Unless you've got a huge house you don't actually need to drop two thousand dollars on networking gear. I'm covering a three bedroom house using one of Ubiquiti's cheapest AC capable access points and the EdgeRouter-X, the whole lot cost me about £120 which is in the ballpark of a consumer router with wireless, yet massively more capable and reliable. Since installing it I've been able to just stop thinking about my home network. It just takes whatever we throw at it, and the wifi is plenty fast enough to stream HD video to the TV.
For a little 25MPH mini-car, full automation was and is quite practical. Google could have manufactured those things and put them on campuses, senior communities, and such. About five companies are already making slow-speed autonomous shuttle vehicles, most of which have no manual controls.
