Not quite. If you re-run the script it creates a new console rather than restarting in the current. That leads to an awkward proliferation of consoles with no keyboard shortcut to close them. I encourage my students to run code very frequently.

Slightly off topic but is there is a such thing as universal affordable good healthcare?

I've talked to a few U.S. citizens that worked abroad who said healthcare in European countries is universally available but the demand outstrips the supply causing longer wait times to get treated than in the U.S. and that they prefer the U.S. system. These are of course people who have good jobs in the U.S. with company provided coverage. Is that true?

Is there any system that can both cover everyone without making healthcare worse for people who already have good coverage?
How to START a BLOG WHEN YOU KNow NOTHING ABOUT BLOGGING
Same here, but I have to actually confirm that I have seen it and sign it (via text message, online or paper). The stuff I have to manually add to the filing is s.g if I bought or sold a house or did any complicated stock market trades (but then the broker or bank usually lets you take that form pre filled from them at least).

This is also true for many domains. Space travel for instance... in just a few hundred years, it'll be relatively easy for a disgruntled individual to trigger a nontrivial sized piece of space debris to hurl towards a major city. Once we begin harnessing asteroids to mine them in earth orbit, Someone could eventually alter its orbit to destroy a city or worse..

I won't argue that his beliefs were wholly out of touch with his contemporaries. But arguing that Lovecraft was typical of the time, particularly in the circles he ran in in New York at the time, is ignoring the evidence.

Methotrexate is the most commonly used drug in Scandinavia when cortisones, protopic etc doesn't work. They have lot of people having these kind of issues. Good thing with methotrexate is it tends to work and it's cheap. Obviously consult your doctor before making any decision.

Humira etc is very expensive but works for lot of people that other drugs don't.

A couple of my army buddies did this when they got out after Iraq. The money sounded good and it was work we were used too. I don't talk to them much but I do know they didn't do it for very long. They said it sucked and that was the end of it.
I dont really want to work as a doctor, but has a full time health specialist working with engineers in R&D.. and if that is not possible to work with other branch that need support of health prof like marketing and legal.

But I guess I am aiming for something that does not really exists. ;)
Thank you for your comments
My immediate thought too.
But by the time you are CPU-bound, it's too late to change your programming language and your whole development methodology.

There's an easy case to be made that starting with a functional programming, easily parallelizable language from the beginning helps to mitigate the growing pains that happen later when you discover that you need to take better advantage of the hardware.
I've got no problem with the new equipment, I think it's cool that they're being less super-safe (within reasonable limits). Didn't mean to imply I thought it was bad.

The other user's comment about healthcare costs doesn't apply here because I'm not in the US and we have free public healthcare.

I was also diagnosed with Psoriasis around five years back. I went through the same cycle of meeting various doctors and therapists (Alternative medicine). The symptoms would go away while taking medicines but would come back once I stopped. So I made a decision that I will do whatever it takes to keep me generally healthy. I eat what my body loves to eat. I experimented with various diets but finally settled on this philosophy that worked for me. If you listen closely, the body tells us what it likes to have at any moment. Then I took to exercise and running. I run a marathon or at-least a half-marathon every year. I know that this disease may never be healed but 'am happy to keep it under control. I take it in a positive manner that this disease keeps me on my toes to exercise and eat right. Thanks and good luck!
Fair question and I dislike this sort of thing as much as anyone. And of course such an opening comment means there is a "but..." coming.

What you're asking for is to criminalize certain petitions of government. So how do you choose whom to discriminate against such that they cannot petition their government in regards to law making without, at the same time, simply institutionalizing the viewpoints of the other side? Maybe we shutdown corporate lobbying, but then do you need to shut down other associations of individuals (consumer groups, unions, etc) from lobbying government in order to keep equity, or tacitly assume those other organizations must be right anyway? There are many ways to play that game and the only options are those that simply favor one interest group over another... sure, the winning side probably won't complain about undue influence or insensitivity to the concerns of the losing side... but when has it ever been that way?

If you want a real solution to problem you're talking about without explicitly shutting down the give and take of ideas (good and bad) that are required to make the democratic aspects of our system function, your only solution is to limit what power the government has to influence preferential outcomes for anyone that would lobby it and increase the rights of individuals to act on their own accord or in trade with other, similarly free individuals. Without the power to deeply intrude into the economic lives of people (regardless if employee or shareholder), lobbying government for favors simply wouldn't be a good investment. Indeed, it is ironic that you ask to outlaw this sort of thing... because any time you expand the government power to regulate or influence outcomes you make the lobbying dollars just that much more worthwhile. Going further, you simply are considering a totalitarian systematization of your ideas: something worse than the rent seeking you rightfully decry.

Lack of transparency is an even greater fatal flaw in _non_ nationalized healthcare.
You're suspicion on the cost of living downtown vs the suburbs is correct for DC.

My son lives in a new 500sqft flat in a nice downtown neighborhood. His rent in $2200/month and that seems fairly typical for that area. You can spend less for an older unit or one in a less desirable area.

That $2200 is definitely enough to pay a mortgage in many parts of Fairfax County (assuming a moderate downpayment).
Ageism and software development, is it real?
Well I mean, perhaps I should have clarified, "simple headers with easy-to-read APIs" has to be looked at on a case-by-case basis and what makes sense. I would argue that as a general rule it is what you should aim for if possible (And I find it is possible in a lot of cases, and that if it's not things may be getting a bit too interconnected), but you're right that there are situations where things are a bit too complicated to split-up easily so a single header for multiple things makes sense. I think that if you're constantly in that situation though, you should reevaluate how you're designing your components and headers.

That's not true at all. Many prices (in restaurants but also elsewhere) in both Canada and Europe don't include sales tax/VAT.

200 million is vastly overstating the numbers. http://www.pewforum.org/religious-landscape-study/belief-in-...

EX: It's somewhat accurate in ethnic terms to call a 6 month old baby christian, but no they don't have faith.

When 2% of Mainline Protestant, and 17% of the Jewish population flat out don't believe in god the numbers are kind of meaningless.

However, even these numbers are rather inflated as what people report vs what they do don't really line up. http://churchleaders.com/pastors/pastor-articles/139575-7-st...
It's pretty much the same as the situation with taxi medallion owners now that Uber has come along.

If you ask me, the correct answer is for the government to either give some one-off compensation to Intuit (or buy the company from its existing shareholders), and then shut it down, and reform the system.

Why should the government pay money to a private corporation or shareholders? Because they created this mess ("opportunity") in the first place with a ridiculous tax code. It's just the actual, realized, dollar-value cost of the mess that was created, instead of externalizing the cost onto taxpayers. Once that cost has been paid, the system can be fixed.
Some evangelism in case someone else happens to have a thing for ridiculously long, ridiculously well-written works of fiction: https://parahumans.wordpress.com/
What they want are:

* 1 Good schools for kids
* 2 Privacy (isolation of noise/smell/etc from others)
* 3 Space (more of it)
* 4 Lower costs (rent, parking, prices in stores)
* 5 Safety (a perception that being more isolated makes you safer)
* 6 Community (this is often a fallacy)

1, 5, and 6 are all factors related to not having good social organizations at a building / block / school district level because incentives aren't aligned correctly. This could be fixed*.

2 is mostly down to building things in stupid, cheep, short-sighted ways, and building codes that allow that.

3 Too many studio units, not enough 3-4-5 bedroom combo units

4, 3, 2, 1, 5, 6 All due to not enough competition to keep prices down.
That's really disgusting, and the reason I'm not using TurboTax.
I love reading about news of technology like this. Makes me feel like we're getting a step, even if an infinitesimal one, closer to the world of Numenera, where science is, effectively, magic.

I already carry a wallet, why would I want a coin purse as well? An empty purse would take up more space in my pocket than a dozen dollar bills in my wallet. I've occasionally got coins in my pocket because I receive them as change, but they go in my car's ashtray or a box of coins I've got at home, whichever I reach first.

Every couple of years, I take them to a coin machine and take a couple % hit for the machine's surcharge. More, higher-value coins = more waste, both of space, and in terms of returning them to a valuable form.
A tangential issue: It seems almost impossible to me that the systems of tax preparation services, whether cloud-based, local software, or offline, are secure.

The standard of security is, make the target more expensive to breach than it's worth to the attacker. How much would it be worth to have access to the tax returns of large swaths of the population?

I don't know the answer, but I'm guessing it's easily worth billions of dollars. Foreign intelligence services would very much like that information, as well as sophisticated criminals.

I am very doubtful that Intuit or H&R Block, for example, invest in security sufficient to protect themselves against that level of attack.

I think this is accurate.

I'd say most of the west half of SF feels like a suburb. Takes forever to get downtown, tons of traffic and no jobs there.

I'd also say it's on big suburb from SF to SJ, plus the other side of the bay.
How sad is that we need to jump trough hoops to just disable ads on our devices.

And before ads advocate responds - ask for my money instead of polluting my mental space.
What do you mean by "results doctors by themselves can achieve"? Do you just mean to exclude drugs?

Or are you somehow also excluding IVF, MRIs, CTs, LASIK, stents, DNA sequencing, laparoscopic surgery, newborn screening, liposuction, and transplants?
Thanks for pointing out this open source tool! There are many with similar functionality but none of them are open, and I don't trust closed source when it creates a VPN tunnel :)
Note that this is just a DNS-level adblocker, which is already quite useful (I use a HOSTS file myself) but isn't quite as powerful as an actual MITM/filtering proxy like Proxomitron which can more precisely remove the content you don't want without having to block entire domains. If you use DNS-only blocking, you will often see error messages in place of banners and other oddities, because of sites which partly host some of the ad scripts themselves.

You do have to do more initial setup with certificates and such, but IMHO the more fine-grained filtering is worth it. The entire category of sites which actually detect blocking can be worked around this way, as you can filter out that code too.
I worked with paypal almost 10 years. I can tell you this. Paypal is an evil company.
I just watched the documentary you linked. It's an excellent reminder of a major crisis that's looming.

The Business Insider article doesn't talk about the collapse of suburbs. It's about the transformation linked to things like Internet shopping.

I believe both are true. When peak oil hits, the system as we know it will collapse. It's not doom and gloom but it will be a drastic change. However, a desire for energy efficient houses and Internet Shopping change where we live, where we shop and where we eat.

Thanks for posting the link to that video. We don't talk about peak oil anywhere near as much as we should be.

> As a counterpoint, zero defect policies could be be harmful. If everyone must take a test and score 100% or otherwise end their career, shenanigans happen.

It's not a counterpoint, it's a consideration when designing the system. Taking this into account, the system must still function 100% of the time. If what you describe did happen, than the cause of failure would shift somewhat from the officers to the designers, but the system still failed (however, one must question the judgment and character of anyone who cheats on a nuclear weapons launch qualification test, no matter how hard it is).
I found some cheap ones on Amazon for £1.10. They've been great for a couple of months, so really anything would do.
Actually from what I've seen, market forces fix this. In Asian countries with capitalist medicine (e.g. India and Thailand), you can just call up to inquire about the price for things.

Consumers won't make a purchase if they don't know the price.
You left out an important bit of context:

"However, ONE VIEW is that this interpretation has not represented the law in most states for some time." [Emphasis added.]

IMHO that view is wrong. The fact of the matter is that if, as an officer of the company, you do not act in the best interests of the shareholders you can be sued in all 50 states, and if your conduct was sufficiently egregious you will lose. The business judgement rules gives you a lot of wiggle room, but it does not change the basic underlying principle. Whether you call this a "legal mandate" or a "standard of conduct" is just quibbling over terminology.

In any case, your claim that fiduciary duty to shareholders is "a myth ... [c]reated from whole cloth (like many others) by Milton Friedman" is plainly flat-out false.
On top of that, never link a debit account to PayPal. If they try funny business with my credit card I can dispute the charges.
> I prefer a 0.5-1.0 acre lot

This is a win-win situation. The more other people live in denser urban areas, the cheaper you can get what you want, and the closer your lot can be to a city.
Do we get more value out of charity donations by normal people than we lose in charities being used as a tax-privileged vehicle for rich people to exert their desire on the world?

Also, charitable donations have weird constraints. My church would like to end deportations of undocumented immigrants based on our reading of Leviticus 19:34, and the most effective way to do that would have been to campaign against certain presidential candidates. We couldn't do that. Another church wanted to end civil recognition of same-sex marriage based on their reading of Leviticus 18:22, but that involved campaigning for a ballot initiative, and they were allowed to do that to the tune of millions of dollars.

I'm obviously not inclined to say "Please start taxing my church," but the fact that we can participate essentially by chance in some political activities and not others doesn't seem like it would exist in a "free society".
What about internationalisation ? You have to add i18n.
So, I have to wonder: if this trend actually continues (and I hope it does), could this be a factor that helps curtail climate change to some degree? I realize that we will most likely inevitably suffer major damages at this point no matter what, but I'm wondering if trends like this (along with the rise of better battery technology and electric cars) will at least mitigate the damage to some extent.

I mean, currently NYC has a ridiculously low carbon foot-print for its population size. So if more places become dense population centers with public transportation like NYC, it can only be a positive thing in terms of mitigating climate change.
Yes, it is truly awful. It's not just you. There are many of us, but we are powerless. There is no hope.

I live in New Zealand. I don't have to file taxes if my income is a standard wage my tax payments are automatic. My employer deducts them from my wage and they are sent to the IRD (Our government tax dept). My student loan and super payments are also automatic. If there is anything wrong then at the end of the tax year I can file to correct things.

I also get donations rebates, this is a one page form that lists all my charitable donations. Very easy very quick.

All my details are available to me online. All transactions are there and it's very transparent.

Why would anyone oppose a simple system like this?
They had projections of flight paths and a point in time. It wasn't just one image, it was a live feed. From gravity and/or the pole they may have had an estimate on the pitch angle of the camera.

Then you need live flight data. flightradar24 looks like a good bet, they even provide altitude information. The accuracy of that data can probably be massively improved with a Kalman filter.

It probably doesn't happen too often that there are three airplanes flying close to each other at a specific point in time. Even if there are, you might rule out all but one triplets of planes from the angles. You could also look at flights at different times (e.g. over the course of the last hour, how many flight paths have seen flights at 7, 20, 33 and 51 minutes apart?). That way they were able to identify which ray in the image corresponds to which plane and 3D flight path.

If you look at two intersecting lines, the angle will change depending on the view direction. They knew the angles of the 3D flight paths to each other, and the angles of the projections. To find the angle of the paths to the view direction you can use non-linear optimization. Or just do it manually in Blender (you only need two angles). You actually only need two rays.
That has extra connotations of parody that I was trying to avoid.
> There's evidence that they increase the risk of cancer as well as other diseases

All drugs can have negative effects, but in the end it comes down to what's the risk/reward ratio. If someone is in constant pain and barely can do anything it really doesn't matter if you die 5 or 20 years down the road to cancer when you get x years to live somewhat normal life. Life in extreme suffering can be worse than death. This is based on personal experience.

+1 on the Quantified Self concept. I lost a daughter to cancer. The disease has something like a 5% survival rate. We were at a top tier children's hospital with a doctor who handled more cases of this disease in clinic than anyone else in the country. Still most of the time nobody knew what the fuck was going on. So I started a log in a spiral bound notebook. In 15 minute increments we jotted done notes of what was happening and her reactions. In doing so we could clearly prove to the staff which medicines she was reacting too and how. This greatly improved her quality of life, which was all we could hope for.

I have severe pain from several back injuries that has taken me years to recover from. Following a similar approach of quantified self has enabled me to discover what the triggers for my pain are and how to manage them physically and medicinally.
Intuit may have gotten to the Canadian government too (or they are just incompetent) because I lived there a few years, and then moved back to the UK and it sort of crazy how simple and easy things are here, especially for people who are only employees. You don't file anything at all if you are an only an employee in the UK.
