I also know that in horses they routinely inject hyaluronic acid, which appears to be significantly beneficial. E.g. The horse limps in, and one day later the arthritis is gone. My mom always jokes that she should just do it for herself but it is not apparently approved for humans. She's been injecting many of he horses for 10+ years with it.
It's not murder to let someone die if you're the only bone marrow donor that could save their life and you refuse to donate and it's not murder to get an abortion

"One of those things is not like the other, one of those things..."

Not donating bone marrow requires doing nothing. Having an abortion require an active procedure.
This is a great point. It's really important to recognize the nature of different tasks and to build different habits around them.

As a startup founder, by far my two biggest tasks are customer acquisition and development. The former is interrupt-driven while the latter is emphatically deep work.

Right now, I try to address this by blocking off 4 hours a day for deep work and the rest of the time is available for sales and general operations. It's working okay but the big problem is that I have an added stress of worrying what important customer messages I might be missing during my deep work time.
What? There's a big "shopping" tab at the top of every search results page.
As a former Soviet citizen, I fail to see why anyone would care what this clown has to say. No one in Russia cares, for example. He basically ran a superpower into the ground in 6 years flat, from space shuttle to hunger and abject poverty for most of the population. Not even a CIA puppet regime would be able to do a better job.
Can you quantify how he is dedicated to improving the world?
And for the authoritarians that voted my comment down... Please explain why a normal citizen is not entitled to the same rights as a journalist? We either have free speech or we don't.

From this point of view, it would have been better if the company had gone bankrupt.
> False!

WRONG!

The Church opposes abortion using the same language and reasoning as they were using in opposition to birth control.

In addition, the Catholic Church has been very clear that this opposition does NOT rely on whether a fetus qualifies as life, human or ensouled and so sidesteps that whole issue.

So, we are back to "life begins at conception" being a political slogan, not a religious one.
I like the idea of this - doing all the processing/ML client side. I know Apple has started doing this recently (object/scene recognition & search in Photos app), but appreciate that this process occurs on my device rather than on say, Google's servers...

I have a strong feeling that quite a bit of R&D has been going toward Apple's upcoming chip, which will likely have a custom GPU architecture optimized for deep learning (of which Siri will also greatly benefit from) and augmented reality - like the custom HPU in Hololens. Apple's "Lens" wearable will probably pair via W1 with an iPhone which will handle most of the processing. Perhaps they'll even have a custom 3D/depth sensor based on the PrimeSense tech they purchased....

We're on the cusp of consumer AR going mainstream, and it's exciting.

It's an import tax he's talking about. Presumably the idea is that US producers will gain from decreased Mexican imports. How that will help pay for the wall I don't know.

Honestly, I'm not sure it's worth it trying to analyze Trump's policy at this point. He seems to have taken a page from the Russian playbook, in that he seems intentionally chaotic and unpredictable, in order to keep the opposition reactive.
I know that directly correlating a recovery with a specific therapy is really hard to do. There have been many stem cell studies like this in the past which have shown similar seemingly miraculous results, even though it's not entirely certain whether the patient would have recovered otherwise or if something else was responsible. Paralyzed people inexplicably regain motor control all the time. I'd be curious to know how rigorous the study was in regards to control.

People are used to granting access to an app without assuming that it's going to take full advantage of that access. I have access to a lot of repos. Like, a LOT of repos with a lot of collaborators.

This solution works less well when there are actual emergencies.

You can, however, configure slack to not notify you unless you are @'d specifically. This + minimizing slack is pretty effective. Most of our office works with this set up (so some people need to be pinged directly to get immediate responses)

People might need to know, but I think that the word spreads fast. For non-urgent stuff, talk in the channel. For urgent things, @ someone, or DM them.

The only thing you need then is the self control to not look at Slack every 30 seconds.

Not always.

Very high senior management have been held to a non-compete if it is very specific and time-limited.

Self-driving is quite specific right now. So, if they limited it to a year, it would probably work.

However, the issue here is things he did while still working at Tesla, not after.
I had the same confusion. I would have then said "New Study Finds Evidence for Cognitive Performance-Enhancing Drugs: They Help with Chess" or something. The way "for Chess" is tacked on the end makes it seem like the most important detail: I would argue just reading this title would make one go "oh, I guess we already had these for other tasks, but this is the first one for Chess". In fact, as worded, my second option was "what they really mean is that people are using them in the wild and they are what is making or breaking tournements", not "we have just discovered it is possible".
Oh I see - I had misunderstood you to mean something like a crop duster. I'm sure we'll see a rapid evolution/arms race involving everything from machine learning to rapid prototyping to autonomous swarming behaviors, and more.

Don't most of us wipe the phones before turning them back to the employer? They tend to have a lot of personal stuff on them - and not really any unique company data.
This looks like a node version of the previously submitted go tool `autovpn`, which I commented on previously:

This code also writes remote-content to a file, and then passes that to openvpn. Scary stuff.
> There are long-term costs for maintaining any page on wikipedia, because there's always people out there looking to insert troll content or provide biased information for a specifically-targeted search term.

But these costs do not scale on a per-page basis; rather, they scale based on the number of trolls. I don't think the number of pages meaningfully changes the amount of effort "trolls" put into "trolling"; meanwhile, automated tools like watchlists allow you to keep an eye on an unlimited number of pages.

It should be much easier to automate anti-"trolling" tools on fringe pages which get very few edits - e.g. automatically adding newly-created or rarely-edited pages to a watchlist.

Finally, it doesn't look like wikipedia has a great editor retention policy if the problem was really combating trolls; There seems to have been an assumption of bad faith on the count of GP - if he is really a "PR shill", then no skin off their back - if they're paid to do it, they'll keep trying, becoming a "troll". However, if he was to be a legitimate editor, blaming them from starting in their own topic of interest(even if it was self-promotion) doesn't seem like a good way to retain them as a long-term editor.

Usually I avoid articles like this because theyre so clearly clickbait but I decided to read it just to see if maybe clickbait has evolved into something somewhat worthwhile and thought-provoking while I wasn't looking.

Nope! Article rehashes the "trump won 'cause fake news" drama, blames it all Russia (and then on certain non-Russian individuals 4 poorly organized paragraphs later), and rewords two press releases of yet-to-be-released products.

If I wasn't on mobile I'd probably write 3 more paragraphs of ranting about why clickbait garbage like this isn't worth the weight of its bits in lead.

I'm really hoping for a breakthrough within next few decades. I shredded the TFCC in my wrist to the point where I couldn't type because of the pain. Since that region is pretty much avascular, it couldn't be repaired. So they snipped what was hanging, and then shorten my ulna in order to reduce pressure while pronated when typing. I can type again, and do most activities, but I'll have issues in a few decades for sure.

I think this is a huge problem for people who struggle to find their purpose or place in society. Considering that in the last 45 years suicide rates have increased by 60% worldwide. Suicide is now among the three leading causes of death among those aged 15-44 (male and female). Suicide attempts are up to 20 times more frequent than completed suicides. As a society we really need a better way to teach & handle rejections.
Actually yes. I had a job for 5+ years, but was getting stressed and unhappy. I found what seemed like a perfect job, on paper, and left. As it turned out the perfect job was not great, so I bounced around 3-5 companies for a year, before asking for my old job back.

With the benefit of hindsight I should have raised my problems with the original company, at the time, not just walked away. That would have lead to improvements for myself and others, and saved me a year of starting new jobs which didn't suit me.

i'm comfortable using ffmpeg, i just wish people would share their secret formulas that can:

- give it the desired output resolution
- give it the desired output quality preset (simple will do - hi, med, low)
- output resulting file(s)
- do it fast

i have a giant shell script of ffmpeg commands i've used in the past, but i have to stop myself from getting sucked in to trying to understand the whole process and losing a whole day at work
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensoulment

> In relation to elective abortion, Pope John Paul II wrote about ensoulment in his 1995 encyclical letter Evangelium Vitae that:

> Throughout Christianity's two thousand year history, this same doctrine of condemning all direct abortions has been constantly taught by the Fathers of the Church and by her Pastors and Doctors. Even scientific and philosophical discussions about the precise moment of the infusion of the spiritual soul have never given rise to any hesitation about the moral condemnation of abortion.[17]

> While the Church has always condemned abortion, changing beliefs about the moment the embryo gains a human soul have led their stated reasons for such condemnation, and the classification in canon law of the sin of abortion, to change over time.[18][19]

Please note that Pope John Paul II is very clear that the two issues are separate.

Go take it up with the Pope.
No, that doesn't explain it. Some cost has to be going up by much more than 22%. Headcount only went up 16% - ie. from 62k to 72k.
It doesn't benefit their employees, though, since consumer prices will rise as a result. As that happens, either the standard of living goes down, or wages go up, which raises consumer prices again.

So far, the wealth of the majority of western population has been based on cheap consumer goods. Those goods are cheap because the people making them have a lower standard of living than the people buying them. So if Trump reduces imports, that implies that to keep cheap goods, the standard of living for the portion of US population producing those goods must go down relative to the rest of the population.

Automation can alter that to a great extent, but the profits from that may just go to the owner class, not the workers.

I work at an agency where there is a steady stream of tickets. We are very concious of the cost of task switching. In the case where you are blocked on a task and it is left unfinished in favor of a new task of lower priority, when you finally get an answer on the first task you often have to dro the second task abruptly. So you have two unfinished tasks and all the mind balls you were juggling are dropped on the floor.

However we are also an almost entirely engineering team so there is no resource for getting unblocked that isn't bugging another developer who then drops his mind balls.

It is just the reality of it though, we have tickets and tasks to complete and we can work toward being more efficient, making sure we aren't going to get blocked befor getting started on a ticket and such. It's all a balancing act and it's important to be aware of it, but I no longer get my knickers in a knot over it.

Here's the secret to sales: Keep it simple, relevant, and keep the conversation going by ending everything with a question that leads down the funnel.

If you're doing that then you have to investigate where down the funnel you might be failing. If they're opening your email but not engaging, then the body of the email:

1. Doesn't give a clear CTA

2. Makes the reader feel they're not your demographic

3. Just feels spammy

4. Is overly verbose.

Another tip is NEVER try and close right away. I usually begin with a leading question about them/their service, then hint about what I'm doing and ask how they're currently doing something similar, and then propose alternatives.

Unless your product is something they don't already have but need, you're competing with activation energy to switch. That's hard. I guess it depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

In the end remember:

1. That business is a relationship, and a relationship is built on trust.

2. Trust is earned.

3. People want to feel like people.

man, the steam controllers shape, I just don't get it. I don't see how they landed on the shape of the handholds and all the angles in it. It's operation I'm happy with, though the dongle has proved to be easy to break.

I was bummed on the controller, till I saw you could aim by moving the entire controller around like an air mouse. That ended up being a fresh control scheme for me, though I know the PS4 controller can do it for on-screen keyboard use.

Would love to see some revised shapes to it. I really dig how it can move the mouse when the software is on even on the desktop. If you don't midn keeping steam running it's a fairly capable to surf with. Though admittedly I haven't done everything.

It took a long time for it to come out. I wonder if they are working on a new generation in secret because they know they might not sell as many right now.

I think it feels premium, but the shape is not ergonomic to me whatsoever.

I don't understand, your citation again supports my claim, not yours, and they are also consistent with my citations?

"Throughout Christianity's two thousand year history, this same doctrine of condemning all direct abortions has been constantly taught by the Fathers of the Church and by her Pastors and Doctors."

Your claim it's a "political concept" so how is a consistent condemnation by the Church during its whole existence of 2000 years a "political concept"? I understood your claim like it was something invented for the last few election cycles, and made because of the contemporary politics. And it's the opposite, it's the Church doctrine that through the 2000 years condemned abortion, in spite of the lives of the mothers involved.

To be just "a political concept" it would have to be a period where the Church did the opposite, which it never did?

Moreover, how is supporting the doctrine on the Father of the Church from the second century, as in my quotation, "political"?

Is for you then the doctrine of Christ being both human and divine, which was established later than in the second century, also political? The trinity, established in the fourth century, political? The selection of which books are part of the Bible, political?

If the Church selected what is a part of the Bible and what is not, and it did, you can't even claim "it's political because it isn't in the Bible" since it's the Church which decided what the Bible is going to be, so your approach would make the Bible just "a political concept" too. Finally, the Church itself (any Church) is "a political concept." The faith, too.

I, not being a believer, confirm that they are all human inventions. But all that is what is traditionally called, understood and lived as "religion" not "politics."

agreed. Everyone in that company knows the responsibility of quality as the product leaves their hands. They know that they are building for the United States military and that those weapons are now apart of history. So it is in fact bigger than they are as individuals. It's also a polite way of speaking of appreciation when you know that others companies that also produce things of great quality weren't chosen and you were. It means you feel a bigger responsiblity to take on. And that's humbling.
