Well, I don't see any problem in the first three photos.

I also was very tall and skinny as a kid and it is very normal(and healthy) to become a man and get some weight. I personally met Michael long ago and don't remember thinking he was fat at all.

The last photo worries me, it does not look healthy, quite the contrary.

I would recommend him to practice an sport(or going to the mountain, whatever) he likes, not just something that he does to lose weight, something that makes him stronger, not just skinny, and something he enjoys . I had made sport all my life and it is part of my routine.

And also eating real food, instead of fast food, both burritos or hamburgers are fast food. Anglo world has lots of amazing things and a few terrible things, food is one of those.

Calories counting is a very simplistic model. For example you have to take into account the oils used in your food, and in America those tend too be the lowest quality(cheapest). Olive oils have nothing to do with palm oil, but most fast food use palm for being the cheapest.

When you eat fast food you will deprive your body of essential supplies. For example feed-fed animals generate too much Omega6 and too few Omega3. Your body requires omega 3 and will demand eating more until it gets it, but as much as you eat you don't get satisfied.

The same happens with lots of other things like enzymes, vitamins, fiber and so on that gets destroyed by refrigeration.

If I were as rational as Michael I would probably write "The guerrilla guide to good eating" in order to learn proper nutrition and document the process.

Hey - trump alone was a candidate unlike any other - and entering the stage after years of escalation in rhetoric.

On top of that trump himself courted controversy at a rate and scale never seen before.

That's why this election was faced with drama unlike elections before them.

A lot of stuff listed above is sadly the regular calumny inflicted upon candidates. Iirc someone got kicked out of the race because of a bad photo op.

But These are all things that are problematic- without being fake news.
Reliably making great coffee by hand isn't solved either.

Do you mean because of the lack of low level control/bit manipulation, vs C/asm, or something else? I would have guessed it was about the same as any interpreted/jitted higher level language (python/php/c#/java).

If I remember correctly, Nintendo also implemented tough DRM like this for the GBC Video series. Same light gray cartridges, I think.

(GBA Video was a short-lived series of video content available on GBA carts. I remember having a cart with an episode of The Fairly Odd-Parents on it. The video quality was terrible. Nothing worth protecting.)
Yep. I'm downvoted because anything even remotely right is on here.
There are dozens, but that is the one I use. It's simple and no-bullshit.

One of the projects I would like to get to this year is writing a crawler that can format twitter and a few other sites that lack a proper RSS feed into an atom feed for me.

This is obviously due to the privacy concerns of pushing the feed through a random third party that can log my IP and determine which feeds I follow.

Still... what I have now is better than using twitter directly.
Hi there, great questions. Developers currently do not get direct access to this db, and we are thinking about ways to allow you to do so in some fashion in the future.

The db that we use is Amazon Aurora MySQL db.

Thanks for the support!
Industry Voice Added to US Drive to Exascale
Jurisdiction issues in America were already pointed out, but I'd also remind that in the Old World, universities and their campuses traditionally enjoyed certain kinds of autonomy. This could even extend to immunity from prosecution by regular authorities, with the university as its own jurisdiction handling at least some offences autonomically.

This is, I believe, now completely a thing of the past almost everywhere, but America being rather conservative, there could be echoes of it around.
See, that is what's wrong with you quiche eating europeans. Fixing the error... What a twist ending! (Twisted even!) A heartfelt "you're fired!" and a lawsuit, now that's the American way.

It's not new.

And it depends on how you define "improvement" since this lacks features many would want. And I'm talking about features in native apps, not web-tech apps.
I did mention that...
For the most part, fees in civil suits are not to punish the wrongdoer (punishment is the domain of criminal law), but rather to bring about the status quo ante (how things were before the offending party screwed things up).

This is not unique to the US legal system, but actually a fairly widespread legal concept.
What's wrong with hibernate? The only thing I can think of is that you're not using "JOIN FETCH entity.relation" when accessing collections and end up with the N+1 select problem but that is because you're using any ORM incorrectly.

Entity framework has include and active record has includes which do the same thing. The qt ORM also has something similar.

The only ORM I have seen that lacks this critical feature is odb. It doesn't allow setting the fetching strategy on a per query basis. You have to either always use eager loading or lazy loading which basically makes it useless for my purposes.
In the UK some of them won those rights, because Uber had put a lot of pressure on them to work specific hours (not just through pricing but various forms of cajoling) so they were deemed to be employed.

Facebook Tests Account Recovery Feature with GitHub
It is to protect the majority of the people. I've seen a lot of cases in the news where people are forced to change into a contracting role.

A lot of these 'share' companies often don't do anything to inform the tax authority what work these contractors did for them, thereby making tax evasion way too easy.

If you're a contractor you really need to know what you're doing. Meaning: a lot of things you'll need to budget for because it is your responsibility. If a lot of people don't grasp that, then the problem becomes a government problem.

I'm an employee and have pretty flexible working times. I don't see why I'd ever want to be a contractor where as only benefit you have more flexible working hours. That's not a change!

Buddy, I think this is really disrespectful, not only for me but for the others.
There's a way to pre-emptively ask a court whether it's legal to do something.

A few years back, some researches did just that in the USA, asking whether they could publish their research despite some deal with the funding corporation, which did not want it published.

I'm afraid I don't remember the details. May be a state-specific thing.
I grew up in the 90s, and when I was 7 years old I was expected to leave the house all by myself(school started at 8am, my parents already left for work by then), lock the door behind me, walk 2km to school(crossing 2 roads), and then get back home around 3pm, let myself in, and if either parent wasn't home yet make myself something to eat.
And there is an ABC store right next to the campus that specialises in cheap vodka.

Made a mistake with a cloudformation script which promptly removed the svn servers drives. The worst part was watching it fail the first time then retrying and suddenly the drive is gone.

Thankfully I had been involved in a migration of the svn server between regions a few months back and in paranoia had tested the hell out of the backup and restore process, and that most repositories had been migrated to git. Still it did stop my heart for about 20 seconds when I realised my mistake.
> I think it's worth shielding our children from danger for as long as possible, so they can focus on learning. Life will come at them, that's for sure. And then they'll have the motivation to learn how to deal with all the bad stuff. But until them they'll learn more of the good stuff if we remove the distraction of having to look out for themselves.

But how will they ever learn that when all they've been brought up with was that they can't be trusted to do anything on their own?

What good is all the learning when you lack confidence to apply it to something new, unknown, where you don't know the outcome 100%?

You make it sound like you are living in a war zone when in fact, your children are probably much safer than they ever were in history.
Storage devices use the power of 10 units correctly.

My 6TB drive has 6001175126016 bytes.

Windows probably still reports that as 5.5TB, although many Linux GUI tools now correctly say 5.5TiB, or 6TB.

I had used MySQL replication with Wordpress around a year ago to keep a standby DB in another data center. The replication used to break almost every 4-5 days.

So could I. And with the right equipment pigs might fly.

I've got to say a bunch of trucks loaded with pallets of sugar arriving at a small-town Tesco is a hilarious image.

Were you at the new store when the trucks arrived or did you get told afterwards?

Were there negative consequences for you personally or was it considered a process/tooling error only?
The problem with SELinux is that it's disabled by default on many distros. If you follow guides online that weren't written for a SELinux-enabled Linux install then it won't work.

To make matters worse SELinux-related errors can be pretty arcane if you don't know what's going on. I'm usually a FreeBSD guy but I had to setup a CentOS 7 box a little while ago. I thought I was going insane when I couldn't get nginx to connect to a unix domain socket. After a hour of hair pulling and non-conclusive googling I finally understood that it was SELinux related.

I will admit that after that I simply disabled SELinux and never looked back. The benefits didn't seem worth the hassle to me.

If I want additional security and sandboxing I'd sooner use something like FreeBSD/solaris jails. It's not exactly the same thing of course but I find the mental model a lot simpler ("a machine within a machine") than SELinux's complicated and (IMO) hard-to-debug rules.

Crazy Progress Bars
The University of Melbourne in Australia has a similar carry over. The majority of the university is on crown land, in an arrangement where most state laws do not apply (however federal law does). The state police have a standing invitation to go on campus if it's in reply to a "violent crime", but otherwise should never be there. However... the university does not have it's own police force: they just have clueless Wilson's Security personnel like any normal industrial site.

Ask HN: What's it like to build Saas business?
Recently I had discussion with my 3rd party business partner about idea to build SaaS application suite for SMB. I started digging about everything - feasibility, technical options, requirements, limitations, business models, payment models, etc.

I have found blogpost : https://www.saastr.com/if-youre-going-to-do-a-saas-start-up-you-have-to-give-it-24-months/

I am wondering what are your real world experience? How long it take to build MVP, functional product, get into green numbers? What about further customer support, bug-fixes, security, SLA? Is it worth to spend so much time and effort if i don't have huge savings to focus only on this thing? Especially if my expertise is somewhere else and don't have real-world experience with SaaS operation? (Too much questions in one paragraph)
some things need a change to not NEED selinux. For example, lots of password files and certificates should not be stored in directories and files (and mucked about in selinux). They are better off in the Gnome-keyring (which is severely underutilized)

for example - networkmanager-openvpn. Openvpn certfiles are usually shared by vpn providers and then when trying to load them, throws selinux errors.

Here's the bounty to fix it - https://www.bountysource.com/issues/41582244-doesn-t-copy-re...
I suspect that the comment from simonh may have contained a degree of sarcasm.
> The key assumption is that if X causes Y, the noise in X can have an effect on Y but not vice versa.

Fine. What if you missed a hidden variable Z which also causes Y? What if there is also X1 which causes Y when no X is present.

For example, a mapping of genetic mutations to actual diseases cannot be done from purely observational data without knowing the implementation - how particular proteins interact in this or that pipeline.

Possible causal relationships does not establish or prove causality itself.
One of the two bones I broke as a kid had a similar cause. That might sound like an endorsement of your claim, except first that it gave me powerfully to understand the value of forethought on the subject of not being a damn fool, and second that the other broken bone resulted from jumping up and down on an ordinary floor - not even jumping off anything. Are floors a problem?

I have a scar at the base of each thumb. One came from carelessness with the Boy Scout folder whose purchase price I'd years earlier worked hard to earn. It wasn't the first time I'd hurt myself through carelessness with that knife, either. It was the last, though, with any. Are pocketknives a problem?

The other scar I earned through waving a stick around. It wasn't really an instance of culpable carelessness on my part, in that if the stick hadn't had a twig stump where it did, or had I held it differently, it wouldn't have gouged me. I found a lesson there about unintended consequences that's served me well in life. Are sticks a problem?

In rough terms, I spent half my pre-adolescent childhood running around barefoot climbing trees and derelict farm equipment, and the other half indoors reading and playing NES games and writing Applesoft BASIC. I found both enjoyable, and a worthwhile way to spend time. I would not have attempted to replace either with the other. To make the attempt would have struck me as arrant foolishness, even at such a callow age, and I cannot say the idea seems any more sensible from a perspective more heavily weighted with years.
Literally ran in to this by chance. Despite only taking four hours, it was literally the best game I have ever played, period. It should be compulsory annual gaming for all technology industry workers!

(New York, NY) December 7th, 2015, -- Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population."

It may be gone from the location you were looking at, as happens with all kinds of stuff on the web. I believe this is the same document, available from the DJT campaign site.

I have an open source project called MarkdownPicPicker, which is used to upload img to web host and generate markdown format URL. I released it at its version of 0.1 and will cost a lot of time to set up the environment before use it.

But there are some people tell me that it is useful and they can not live without it.

Also, they suggested me of new features and develop it with me.

Now, MarkdownPicPicker is in its version of 1.0 and it is so easy to use it as soon as you download it both in macOS and windows.

I tell this story because I want to tell you that you should release it now and develop it according to other people's advice.

P.S. You can see MarkdownPicPicker at https://github.com/kingname/MarkdownPicPicker

Counter-example: Xmonad. Here's how I "configure" it:

Open ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs. It's Haskell code, but frankly it reads like a configuration file, with a big list of shortcuts.

Edit the "code". You don't need to know Haskell, just follow the syntactic conventions you see there. Worst case, you have to search for configuration tips on the web.

Save xmonad.hs, hit the "recompile Xmonad" shortcut. You've now recompiled and restarted Xmonad, and all your windows are still where they were before. Application state survives recompilation.
Beautiful typo about two's complement:

Nice idea for a thread. It's never one person's fault.

At the very first job I ever had, with literally hours on the job, my employer somehow put me (at 17, with zero routing experience) in charge of a major change to the primary yet supposedly redundant ISDN routes at a small ISP. Needless to say there were some unhappy customers the next day or two as incorrectly advertised routes drew traffic down the wrong pipe, we figured that out, updated correctly and propagated. Luckily most customers were schools, internet was not yet a critically expected utility, and we buggered things up on a Saturday, so the majority of the customer flak was only on Monday morning. I can't remember what the routing protocol was in those days, but it was probably something early like RIPv1. Meh. Certainly a learning experience I felt bad about, but in hindsight totally not my fault!
