Definitely, not.

The combination, or even both items separately, contains a ton of fiber. However, the result is contra to what's expected from eating such a food combination. Instead of making matters worse, like eating other beans (black-eyed beans, for example) would do, it completely stopped (cured) it.

I think it deserves further study by those in the area of research.
Loved reading the article. I can really feel the authors/founder's sincerity in giving non-fluff answers.
I understand that we are discussing readability here, with 'most readable' being the general consensus in the comments as being synonymous with 'better.'

That said, I see readability as something that is part of a greater equation. Take your last example of the Verge homepage. Often designs like this are intentionally designed to throw the viewer out of the flow of easy information consumption and disrupt your sense of hierarchy on the page. They are trying to get you to snack on different sections, not read left-right, top-bottom.

This sense of confusion also serves to hide the fact that they place the same article multiple times on the same page, in different contexts. This gives the reader the sense that there have a lot of content and a lot going on.

My point is that readablility is a sliding scale that can be used as a tool to varying effect.
Ha! Guilty!
When I load tested async HTTP clients at the BBC (for 1000rps), both https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-asyncclient-dev/ and https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/ performed well. We used Apache's since it exposes connection pool statistics.

Apache's client doesn't have CompletableFuture, but it was easy to add one: https://gist.github.com/tomfitzhenry/4bb032f6a9f56d95f6fb544...

async-http-client is the HTTP client used by Gatling (same developer, in fact).
I'm not against nuclear power, but the U.S. was a pioneer in this tech and it still required massive support from the weapons industry to even get as much implementation as it has. I don't believe this is solely on either the tech or the anti-nuke power movement, but rather has to do with how large and distributed the U.S. is geographically, which makes each plant being a custom build job in many places with not enough nearby consumers to give any savings from scale.

Add to that, the fact that you have so many levels of government approval before you can break ground, and the high initial cost to build a plant, and you're basically left with a system that can only gain traction with some organisation like the military pushing it through.
> more focused on people's emotional, "tribal" affiliation

Maybe I'm missing something, but that's basically all we have right now. Is the goal to get people to be tribal and emotional in the same place instead of apart?

Also, I have strong affiliations, especially on particular topics, but I can't really identify as right if Trump is "far right" or left if Warren is "far left". It doesn't make me confused about who I am. It's just that people aren't even measuring right or left on the same axes.
I want to second the praise of DOs tutorial pages. I used to use stack overflow for all my tutorial needs, but I'll always pick DO when I can. Just in case you doubt their value - It's a big part of why I use DO for my hosting needs and recommend you guys to others.
Much though the dude was a terrible person (and fireable for doing that at work) please don't assume that all open relationships are similarly unethical. It doesn't need scare quotes any more than being gay does.
This is correct according to the various employment attorneys who have spoken at various 'managing within the law' training sessions I've attended over the years. Sometimes you can not only sue the company but the individuals who were involved. That should be a disincentive to managers but sadly it doesn't seem to sink in.
Also Australian, and this entire story seems absurd to me. I guess I've never worked in an office with more than 50 people, so don't get the full gamut of human interactions.
he said the "nature of the business" made it more pro drinking. but thats not accurate. people's decisions might make for a more pro-drinking atmosphere, but a business can't.

Alimony comes after divorce. I am questioning the validity of something that comes even before that..marriage. I have often questioned the usefulness of marriage in the modern world. What is its function other than the religious aspect of it? There is certainly no moral clause to it..fidelity doesn't have anything to do with a piece of legal paper. Does the state benefit by validating and continuing to reward what is essentially was born as a religious contract between two people. Personally..I think a lot of issues from gender inequality to lgbt inequalities can be resolved if the artificial social contract of 'marriage' loses its validation from courts and the state.
This kernel brings nearly full support (excluding Mali support) for Allwinner H3 based boards, and adds A64 support. I compiled 4.10-rc6 for my OrangePi a few days ago, and HDMI, audio, NAND flash, gigabit, wifi and everything else I tested worked well.

Finally got a super cheap version of a BeagleBone Black with the OrangePi Zero ($7), and with the OrangePi PC+ you get a board with a gig of ram and 8GB of fast eMMC for under $20.

Hopefully the H5 based boards and Arm64 in general will get better support, been having trouble getting NodeJS 6 or 7 running on aarch64 short of compiling it myself :(

Edit: Also FriendlyARM has a couple fun H3 based boards with the Nanopi Neo and a few others, might wanna look at those too!
It's easy to blame Uber given their track records. I don't disagree that Uber should have fired that manager and let that be the end of the story. However, from the upper management's perspective, it was probably difficult for Uber to let go an experienced manager because of a complaint from a relatively new employee. Her LinkedIn profile tells me that she's also quite inexperienced. Please correct me if I'm wrong: Am I the only one who picked up the signal that the storyteller was an alpha female and a drama queen?

Really would love to hear different perspectives on this.

Rust has a ton of complexity so it can remove GC. It's a big leap, and something Swift and Scala don't attempt.

Post tags are something that I'm planning on implementing in the near future, though I'll need to think a little more about the best way to do them. I was planning to use them as a way of identifying topics only (e.g. abortion, immigration, taxes), but I like your idea of tagging particular stances as well.
it seems like a smart move to hedge your bets like that if one doesn't work out.
This is really surprising. I thought that part of Rust's pitch was that the explicit ownership tracking made optimizations much easier.

Is there a bug filed to fix this?

It is exciting, with virtual GPUs I think we'll see more lowend hosts (like those on LowEndTalk) offer a portion of a GPU for a few bucks a month.
The leaather jacket thing is textbook exclusionary.

To wrap it up as "equality" is insulting. A real stand for equality is saying everyone gets one, or no one gets one. The cost thing is obvious canard. All it takes is one email to sales to saying, "I'm looking to buy 50 men's jackets and 2 women's jackets. The website is giving me a deal on the men's, but not the women's. I want the same deal on the women's. Otherwise I'm backing out of the whole sale."

Even then you're just penny pitching. How much of a deal could this have been? $50 at most? Get that out of petty cash.
My Journey into the Bubble
dragonwriter is spot on, but there is also the other side of the coin. A lot of people identify themselves one way, but actually, in action, lean one way. This is where a lot of the trust in certain media outlets goes out the window. Journalists declare themselves neutral observers but actually lean. There will be people doing the voting manipulation as dragonwriter suggests, but also those that lean without thinking they do.

Plus, what we think we are is a bit problematic these days. The extremes of both sides of the scale take up some of the room we thought we had on the sides. If you are honest with yourself, there is a lot of self examination going on.

Even if you haven't changed, things around you have. Hell, relatives I once supported have sold their integrity and feel justified in it, but I have had my own questioned because of them. Its just a weird world.

As to the site, the default front page was basically all "left" outlets when I looked. If you actually want both sides to compare, then you probably need to look at source as much as people.

Looking back at past threads, dragonwriter and myself don't agree often, so take it for what its worth.
They already provide such an incentive by enforcing private property laws.
I do have to complement the authors of this article. It presents the facts and leaves out political rhetoric and noise. I'm pleased with the title too; if the article were featured on a mainstream news site in the USA, it would have declared it as a definitive event and give a list of what products to buy from their advertisers.

Going from 26% to 6% of any particular description of employees that quickly is probably not a good sign for quality/sanity.

VC's main goal is for their investments to grow and grow fast. They know most of their companies will fail, and they don't want to waste their time on the companies that will only net them a modest return when they can focus more of their efforts on the company that will net them a 20x return. It's actually in a VC's best interest for you to either be a rocket ship or for you to fail completely, as mathematically it's the best use of their time for maximizing profits.

VC's aren't trying for all of their portfolio companies to be profitable - they're trying to fund 1 company that is going to be uber profitable. There's a saying from the dot com investment days - you either invested in Google or you didn't.
Wow, these p-values are tiny! Fig 1 has heaps of SNPs at -log10 > 50, that's crazy. Could be an effect of their relatively strange decision to use a simple model for GWAS - they used a straightforward linear regression with a more stringent p-value cutoff (P<5*10^-8), which I guess explains these ridiculously tiny p-values. I wonder how the results would have looked like with a more complex model (like an mixed linear model as implemented in GAPIT) or with a different strategy to adjust for multiple testing (all of those methods in PLINK)

it is interesting that sex is the hot button. in general we special case sex in the US. While I dont mean to say sexual harrasment isnt a real problem, its interesting to me more philosophically that propositioning for sex is ultra problematic but propostioning for a platonic relationship is less so, or drinking, or anything else beyond strict job fulfillment labor. its obviously a problem when a power dynamic is abused but I would argue there is a weird puritanical nature to seeing a sexual proposition as preposterous but an unwanted platonic advance as largely benign
> And you should talk to some of your fellow workers and ask if they all think they're being fairly compensated. Even aside from the issue of salary, tech workers are rarely given a fair stake in ownership in the company, and their equity grants often come with lots of clauses to deprive them from what little stake they have.

Who decides what is fair? You? Tech workers? Speaking about fairness as though it's objective or straight-forward isn't doing anyone any favors. Speaking generally, if employees aren't getting a fair deal, they should look for better jobs. If they can't find better jobs, they're getting a fair deal. There are certainly anti-competitive exceptions, but nothing posted so far suggests we're in such exceptional territory.
> Do you see the fallacy of this argument?

I do. If you go read the historical justification for zoning law in the US (by the way zoning and land use laws were originally intended to keep negroes out rich neighborhoods) they rest on the idea that as long as the government can come up with a "rational basis" that the law would "improve the public welfare" than zoning laws are a legitimate exercise in state police power. This was around the 1920's.

Later you have a concern for civil rights but the courts pretty much ignored the issue of how zoning might impact poor minorities.

There's been some lefty rumbling about maybe modifying the zoning code so that poor minorities can still afford to live in rich areas. Of course the remedies proposed are better zoning laws, not no zoning laws.

My concern is that these land use laws take away yield from capital (ie rent from landowners). The US economy has not been growing very fast lately - I don't think the US can any longer afford the costs of an extensive regulatory state. Locking away the returns to land in exchange for centrally planning all the land uses might make things feel "nice" in the short run but in the long run could impoverish the country.
Yeah, I wonder how much of an improvement it will be on small, cheap, low I/O devices, any insight if you can prioritize some I/O over other I/O (like user interactive stuff vs Nautilus or cp duplicating a file)?
I think this sentence is implying something much stronger than that:

It may even be viewed as a plus, influencing an American company to adopt Saudi values.
but death taxes suck. government coming in during time of grief and taking people's money that likely was already taxed one or more times. cold, heartless, calculating, disrespectful. everything we hate about government.
So you were also shocked by this story?

If not, I guess neither of us exist, because I (sadly) wasn't.

Edit: Originally said: So let's leave out the "every man" crap and focus on making the world a better place, please.

As grzm points out, I'm an idiot. Disregard the above sentence.

But still, people who wouldn't appreciate this crap definitely exist, and our quitting/refusing to be recruited would likely still make a point.
It opens the door for a lot of lowend providers to offer cheap GPU compute, since most are on kvm or OpenVZ. Excited for some $30/yr GPU assisted offers over on LowEndTalk :P

Sure, this will often happen if litigation can set some precedent that benefits the profession as a whole. For example the AMA will take up cases that can challenge legal precedent on malpractice damages limits. Sometimes these disputes can be with management, but generally these kind of interventions are done as part of professional advocacy.

However a professional association is effectively limited in what it can do in a labor dispute because management has no obligation to collectively bargain with them, hence this is not really the purpose of professional associations.

>It's easy to imagine global utility decreasing (e.g. from the permanent resident's dissatisfaction with living next to short term rentals) despite it being marginally profitable for the property owner.

It's also easy to imagine that the land owner's rent gains are higher than the "externalities" endured by the neighbors. I'm skeptical that the government can find a good tradeoff here.
Worth it just for learning that there's a "replace" command, for multi-file search-and-replace without having to remember sed syntax.

In this context I mean someone has worked, and spent money, to continuously monitor the article I mention in my post.

Because I've "blocked" them so many times they've had to set up accounts with several different web services and pay to set up a server just to keep monitoring that article.

It's only that article they are continuously observing.

I can tell by reading the web server logs. I provided an example of those in my post.
That'll be an exciting vector for jailbreaks, too.
I can hardly believe how much bs you've typed, and the irony of your statements.
Imagine you have a sales team. Initially you tell them: sell $10000 in 1 week. Most of them will go through the traditional selling process. One of them will make a loan on behalf of the company for $10000, and hand you the money right away.

If you are smart, you will say that you are not interested in having that money if it comes from a loan. If you are not smart, you will say: "wow, this guy is a 10x salesman, we will give him a bonus". Meanwhile the company gets into an unpayable debt beyond any possibility of paying.

Then, when the company is about to die from debt, they declare bankrupcy and start over or sell themselves to be acquired.

Now, imagine it's not salesmen, but software engineers, and it's not actual debt, but technical debt, and it's not bankruptcy but starting your project again.

I come down firmly on the side of meritocracy. If you're contributing a lot more value, you deserve to be compensated more. I've spent a decade honing my abilities and it's reflected in my skill level. It'd be unfair if that skill weren't reflected in my salary.

In fact, if anything I think top developers are underpaid in most of the industry. Outside certain organizations and areas, it's hard to break $200k as a developer—even when a senior developer can easily be 2x as effective as a new grad making $100k.

Also, to be clear, the current system is better for probably the whole upper half of engineers. It's not just elite performers who would see cuts if we moved to salary formulas. The problem I see is that humans have a well-documented tendency to hurt themselves if it means they can "punish" others as well: I can people voting for a $100k mandatory salary (while they're making $110k) just to spite me for making $200k.
Completely true, but for fairness the reason is that the web was not created as a tool for text layout. The goal was exactly the opposite, to make the text independent of layout and displayed differently in the different browsers. Doing good text layout on the web is practically an intractable problem. On the other hand, we already have software capable of doing this, such as PDF.
That's a better explanation clarifying its distinction between being a framework and library. Yeah, substantial amount of consideration should be taken before including it in a project. It's good though to have an option when you need it.

This is largely a natural difference in perspective.

The typical interaction between manager & engineer is that a manager tells an employee what to do, and the employee does it. From the manager's perspective, any employee that's reasonably competent will do: success is binary, either you did the assigned task satisfactorily or you didn't.

From the engineer's perspective, if you're good you considered a lot of alternative ways of solving the problem and finally settled on the best. It seems ridiculous that all employees could be interchangeable, because it's a pretty good bet that some engineers did not consider some of the alternative solutions you did. But remember that the whole reason the manager hired you was so that he didn't need to think about the details. All of those alternative solutions are outside of his conscious awareness; he's condensed his mental model of the problem to a binary "is this good enough to ship?", which frees up mental space for him to think about other stuff. Among those engineers that you think of as "not good enough", there are some who may not have thought of the brilliant solution that you came up with but still have code that is "good enough to ship" in the manager's estimation, and those are the irritating folks on your team who IYNSHO always produce shitty code but stay on the team because they have your manager's political favor. And then there are the folks who both you and your manager agree are too shitty to get the job done, and they're fired.

Who's right? Well, both of you, and neither of you. It's fairly likely that you're overestimating the quality requirements for the job, which is why a number of your shitty coworkers still have jobs. It's also fairly likely that your manager does not have complete visibility into all the long-term consequences of all the code being produced, which is why whole teams occasionally just catastrophically fail.

But it's worth remembering that every time you enter a transaction, you're having your work reduced to a pass/fail grade. It's the fundamental bargain you make when you take a job, and it also is the fundamental bargain you make when you sell a product (entrepreneurs are not exempt from this, and it's a major cause of startup failure among technical founders...including, quite possibly, mine). The advantage of producing better work is that it qualifies you for more different opportunities - which may or may not be relevant, depending on whether you take advantage of those opportunities.
