I am glad that you are still here with us, and I would strongly urge you to get help, in whatever way. Friends and family are of course, the first ones I would suggest, but if you feel that you do not want to burden them, then please contact a help line, or a priest, or a counselling service - whatever. A lot of them let you stay anonymous.

In my experience, when you are in that state of mind that suicide seems the only/easiest option, then there is NO WAY that you are thinking of the best outcomes for other people in your life.

You not ever being there for your kids ever again is NOT a better option that you being there broken, but still there for them to be able to actually tell you how they feel and listen to you. Not even close.

You will be far too enmeshed in your own feelings of hopelessness and loss to be able to think clearly. You NEED someone who can look at the 'helicopter view' objectively and bring a new perspective to your mental state. Even a complete stranger who is empathetic can do that. They don't even need to say much - just listen to YOU saying it. The act of talking it out can help on a massive level.

My kids were very young when I went through my patch about 15 years ago. I look at them now and think about all the incredibly wonderful things I would have missed if I was not here.

Go. Talk to someone. Now.
But at $40/month for insurance, you likely have liability insurance only and a gap in coverage if you hit a car > $50k or significant medical costs.

Most states have tax depreciation/deductions per mile that are considered by most to be much lower than accurate. In GA, it's $0.55/mile (real costs were estimated $1/mile at $4 gas); so, at $30/gas, you're being very "efficient" because it should be costing you at least $150/mo for that kind of mileage.
That's really cool, how did you go about writing that? Like, do you have a deep background in stats or did you just pick up some books?
If for-profit research didn't exist, we probably wouldn't be able to have this discussion. Do you think the likes of Bell Labs and IBM Research would have been making scientific breakthroughs if there were no financial incentive to do so? Let that sink in for a moment.

Beating the competition to make more money is the primary goal behind corporate R&D expenditures. It's essentially a form of investment, which means that it has to eventually make the company some kind of return.

The great thing is that we get the results of breakthroughs in the form of publications, patents, and eventually we see them in products. Sometimes the company decides to just release the results royalty-free: a great example of this is Volvo and the modern seatbelt.
I totally see how data could become unavailable, I am more asking whether it just really became more likely to happen. It is certainly no mistake not to rely on single sources, but if that is the motivation, then there is nothing special about now and climate data and mirroring all kinds of data would have been as good an idea a decade ago as now.

SQL Server does all of these things (for comparison).

It compiles queries and stores them in a cache. In many cases it can parameterise simple ones so even if the exact text changes it will pull back the matching plan (and it stores all this data so you can analyse later what plans were compiled, what was reused, which ones were similar, which were recompiled later - though hardly anyone deep dives into it because it's a tar pit of info and why bother instead of just focusing on worst cases).

Also when the query pulls data into memory it stays there in the buffer. If the rows change the buffers aren't discarded, they're flushed to disk (along with the log records). So if your query pulls back the exact same data then it's from memory sure but it's not stale or anything.

I don't consider any of these problems so I'm surprised how they could be interpreted as bad in other products. I don't understand enough about them to say but it's fun to discus.

To be fair, the TAG Magnet did have race-based quotas until very recently. Let's just say that the school is now ... less diverse. Although, the 1% "other", which encompassed all East and West Asian, has now makes up roughly one-third of the enrollment. The former court ordered 33/33/33/1 resulted in rejecting some of the most meritorious students.
Holy shit, that visual display of Bayes Theorem makes so much sense. Writing it as P(A intersect B)/P(B) and having the Venn diagram just made it all click in my head.

I fully agree that lisp is not the answer for a shell. My question was only for your data literal syntax.

Specifically, maps as association lists are very natural in lisp. So are many other structures. And JSON is easily seen as a crappy sexp. XML is easily a complicated sexp. Python's pickling is a complicated eval.

And I get it. Some things have a more "natural" syntax that isn't postfix. Even in common lisp, the reader macro is often used for infix things. However, when the examples used are easily translated to sexps, and back, it makes me wonder why we don't think programmers could learn to write them.
Democracy is the people rule themselves through voting.
Democracy comes in two flavors. Direct democracy is where the people vote on the laws directly. Indirect or representative democracy is where the the people elect representatives to vote on laws for them.

A republic is a government without a king. The United States, Germany, France, and India are examples of democracies that are republics (also known as democratic republics). Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Spain are examples of democracies that are not republics, as they all have a king. All of these are indirect democracies.

An example of a non-democratic republic would be North Korea.

An example of a country that is neither democratic, nor a republic, would be Saudi Arabia.

BONUS ANSWER!

Some countries have powers devolved to independent subnational governments. This system is called federalism. The opposite is a unitary state. The United States and Canada are both federal democracies, while France and Spain are not. (And to reiterate on the previous point: The United States and France are both republics, while Canada and Spain are not.)

Seriously, we went over this stuff in 5th grade social studies. People only unlearn this stuff when it becomes politically convenient to unlearn it.
Nutrition, medicine, psychology are beset by empiricism: trying to find facts without having theories to support them. Journalists then make hay with the results, hinting at conclusions and advice for the public, using the authority of Science, but really bringing it into disrepute. An awful lot of research money has been wasted in this way and of course much of the work is not reproducible.

Another child post has addressed your concerns about the lack of scientific training in journalism, so I won't address it other than to say I was incredibly amused to see this charge levied at Gawande of all people.

But on your point, this is exactly the thing that Gawande was mystified by in this article. He noticed a trend of people with better primary care relationships having better outcomes despite there not being an immediately identifiable causal link.

Knowing his style, Gawande will probably start testing this pretty soon with his Ariadne Labs group and publish into a high impact journal when they identify causal explanations.
>. Do you think the likes of Bell Labs and IBM Research would have been making scientific breakthroughs if there were no financial incentive to do so?

Maybe not, but I think even for-profit research should alwats be made freely available at some point, regardless of its value. The financial incentive may be necessary but to me it's a perverse incentive.
Australia. We have different billing codes for different length of time and different complexity of concern/procedure. We book double/triple/etc. appointments when necessary.

Doctors still often go over time.
Not quite. Look at all those ads in the back for patents, patent attorneys, and related services. Back then, the big thing was to be an inventor with patents. Tesla, Edison, Bell, DeForest, etc. all had strong patent protection.
Before publishing, they could do a checksum, insert it into the blockchain and then voila. Easy to validate if the data has changed.
I didn't knew that the change was in les than 200 hundred years, do you have any link to papers showing such unprecedented quick change?
I wouldn't have made a throwaway for this. It's perfectly reasonable advice. I never liked banks. My mom always warned me they're legal loan sharks who don't break your leg but take your home (or car, or whatever). Perhaps it's a good time to consider bitcoin.
Glocks have triggers that are pretty heavy, and you don't have to carry with a round in the chamber unless you're in _really_ bad places. Safety has its own issues: what if you don't completely disengage it or forget to do it at all? What if you forget to engage it and do something stupid because you thought your gun was on safety?

MySQL needs the cache more often though with a limit of one index per query. Postgres seems like it more often can combine a few indexes and turn what scans 100k rows in MySQL into bitmasking two indexes and pulling 10 rows.

Seems sensible, each has features to support the base design.
Awesome, I was just talking about how I'd want this kind of product!

I'd be more than willing to pay a monthly fee ($5 / month) for you to have someone confirm the details of my meals and label meals that your system doesn't recognize. I'd be happily paying you to build a higher quality training set because

1) I don't want to fill out the extra information (although your interface makes make that process less painful than it would be otherwise)

2) Paying would make me much more likely to be a consistent user

Anyway, excited to try it out and if you every try a paid upgrade I'll definitely be a guinea pig :)
Ask HN: Do you prefer Laravel or Ruby on Rails for your projects? Why?
There's a pretty interesting npr program about this. The researcher visits "Blue Zones," areas where people live for abnormally long times, and finds that, if I recall correctly, long lifespans are correlated with strong social support networks, plant-and-fish-based diets, and consistent, low-intensity exercise.

What do you mean by a real safety? Does the sig 320 have a manual safety?
That's not what I meant to emphasise, but kind of. I was contrasting the Scala programming experience to this: https://eev.ee/blog/2012/04/09/php-a-fractal-of-bad-design/ which seems to be pretty much the point expressed by the Coursera people in the blogpost I quoted from them.
"Democracy" just means "government by the people". That's why we have different types of democracies, to tell them apart.

If you actually meant a direct democracy, then you should have said it. Don't expect people to be able to read your mind and then get mad and snarky when they don't. We can only interpret what we read, so being specific that you mean a direct democracy when you say the word "democracy" in a political thread is really needed.

Feels like the most important things people with some spare cash can do to help this project is help them raise money to host the mirrored climate science data on online.net: https://www.generosity.com/volunteer-fundraising/climate-mir...
But without money, how do you propose we perform research? Who will feed and house the researchers? Who will pay for the building(s) the researchers work in? Who will pay for the (usually) expensive equipment needed to perform simulations and analyze the results?

And if the results don't generate money, how will you continue to support research projects in the future?

Modern scientific research is a very expensive endeavor. You could probably get scientists to do this "for free" back when a field was still in its infancy. Now you need a whole team of researchers and an entire support system to make even the smallest of scientific breakthroughs.

And by the way, universities also aim to generate a profit (usually fed back into the institution). For example, most universities take a 50% cut of whatever external funding a professor manages to get. They do provide things in return, but the key point is that they're making money off of research.

Yes. Wrap the entire script in a function and call the function at the end once the whole thing has transferred. https://install.sandstorm.io/ , for instance, does this.

- We're using Facebook as the conduit to sign up for the app, and we're hoping that encourages user.

- Our "angle", is social potluck. First, the user categorizes their contacts in groups depending on how well the know them (besties, pals, acquaintances and so on). Then, the user can send an event invite (can be public or private) to one or more groups of contacts. At that point, the invites are sent out to a random set of people in that group and the first ones to accept get to attend the invite.

My making it social potluck, the app makes it more likely that you'll meet up with contacts you might not otherwise make the effort to meet, or might find it a bit too forward to invite.

- we're going to a name that would stick in the mind. something that would be fun to say as well...
The difference is that, the app enables to manage events, whether public or private. You can use it to organize a party, and find events in your city and send out invites to random subset of your contacts. Kind of a social potluck
He's wrong. The situation is Syria was enough to vote for Donald, very little mattered other than that, we would have had a drawn out war w/ HRC vs Putin in syria, you must be out of your mind. As if we could let the Syrian people die this way.

In fact I would not be surprised if the growth cut is significantly higher. The previous Prime Minister of India, a renowned economist and the architect of India's economic liberalization in 1991, asserted in the Indian Parliament that the growth cut was likely to be more than 2%.
Correct. I don't think Starliner has any EVA capability in fact.
It is, also when you think about it though it's really only a couple countries that make decent pistols (Germany, U.S., Italy, and Belgium) add in other military small arms and maybe the list also includes Israel and Russia is sort of an odd list as well

I've been through many horrific things myself, you need to plug into a compassionate community of some kind, the isolation will kill you, you need people you can talk to in person, you need hugs and commiseration and compassion and some loving care from a genuine community.

This is an interesting humble brag from google, considering there have been several (at least 3) posts to hacker news this year concerning scam ads on some rather high profile search results (youtube.com, bestbuy.com, and amazon.com).
In the case of the youtube and amazon ads, they both had youtube.com and amazon.com in their green text, yet the ads went to completely different domains. It doesn't seem like it would require any high tech algorithm to prevent these types of bad actors, as verifying the textual link is the same as the actual link is pretty simple.
So, why manual testing (especially, regression testing) is still so widespread?
This is a somewhat depressing comment to me.
Absolutely, but the OP was talking about a 4-6 NAT, which seems less useful.
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejido :

"Ejidatarios do not actually own the land, but are allowed to use their allotted parcels indefinitely as long as they do not fail to use the land for more than two years. They can pass their rights on to their children."

Taking land from landlords doesn't work because then no one will buy land in the future out of that risk, unless it is very clearly done as a one-time thing. See: one-time tax.

I'm not saying collective ownership does not exist but you haven't shown it works empirically or theoretically.

> A random salting of pure-theory, Econ-101 points is the sort of lazy, free-market fundamentalism that I have no time for.

What is wrong with pure-theory and Econ-101 points?

Mainstream economic theory is a refinement of Econ-101
with more complex modelling (imperfect competition, sticky wages).

Econ-101 can be used to rebuke many bad economic policies like what Venezuela is doing (capital control, etc).

> And, just as important, working in ways and yielding outcomes that matched their values.

Do famines and poverty reflect their values? Does food rationing reflect their values?

Does only the Politburo having access to the ZIL-111 reflect egalitarianism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIL-111)? Does Chaikas only being available for purchase by the Soviet government reflect egalitarianism?

> Communists weren't stupid.

Most communism (such as LTV) is bad economics (that's why the Marxist school of economics is very much outside the mainstream). Communism forgets the Laffer curve at 100%. Complete equality does not work.

> communal approaches working pretty well for them at smaller scales

It works at smaller scales of family, neighbors, etc because then the people are roughly homogeneous. Even then it is not optimal. Have you heard of horrible stories involving housing societies?

> Laughing alternatives off like this is just a knee-jerk defense of the status quo.

It's not a knee-jerk defense because I gave some thinking.

> But it's somehow common and acceptable whenever economics comes up.

I have been downvoted at times for my "fundamentalist capitalist" views. The earliest post in this thread that I wrote is at 0 points (maybe you downvoted it).
Well the EPA had been asked by Trump's transition team to provide a list of employees who have attended conferences about climate change. See NPR story: http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/12/09/505041927/...

They have also removed all mentions of climate change from the white House website and we now many Republicans don't believe in man made climate change. So I think this is an entirely reasonable fear. We are talking about a administration that thinks that getting coal out of the ground like it's 1910 is the future...
