Obviously, for many patients, the benefits will massively outweigh the risks (assuming the clinical testing bears out the initial results).

For comparison, what do Google et. al. pay in the UK?

I work in a small medtech in Manchester UK (like a scaled down Boston!) and simply currency adjusting these numbers would make for attractive offers here. For example I've a PhD in computer vision, 20 years building and selling medical device approved imaging software in the EU & US and have yet to be offered anything close to $100K (yes dollars) and options that would impact on anything I do. I'm good at what I do too. I just think the UK investment attitude is totally different.

"Taking the stuff you need to fend for yourself" is theft. That's a crime for which the government exists to identify & prosecute.

Aside from outright theft, you now have established you have all the stuff you need to fend for yourself. Put in that aforementioned basic effort, and you won't starve. You may have to relocate, you may have to enter a mutually-beneficial contract, but point is (assuming you're competent & able-bodied) you're obligated to exert at least that basic effort to expect survival.
Yes, it costs more.

Testosterone will also do this. There are long release esters so you only need an injection every few months. Even with a bimonthly shot, it costs about $10/mo. (On mobile, but there was a study in China with T undecanoate showing amazing effectiveness.)

Downside is that in the US, testosterone is, hilariously, Schedule III. But 5 minutes with Google should have you sorted. Can get OTC in other places.
The other problem is that with so many startups nowadays, none of them offer a compelling enough vision or mission that would entice someone away from the Google/Facebook/Microsoft's of the world. A lot of them are either still working on their product-market fit in a niche field or they are hire front-end devs for some CRUD analytics tools.

I'd much rather go work at a non-profit, NGO, or government-based organization where there's a better mission statement or something you're doing for moral reasons.

If you're a startup who can't hire but you're still doing whiteboarding problems to screen candidates, you're doing the equivalent of using vanity metrics.
Poor people are typically less educated and (I guess) are not as well informed about STDs as more affluent people. In countries without a proper healthcare system they are probably also less likely to get STDs treated.

Unwanted children are typically not good for getting out of poverty.

There's likely a subset of men who wear condoms when sleeping around so they can decrease their risk of babies (a measure so they don't have to trust that the woman they're with is both on the pill and taking it regularly). They might not wear them if this contraceptive decreases pregnancy risk in a similar way. STDs may not seem risky enough to merit condoms for a portion of this subset.

This smaller subset would be at higher risk of STDs if they adopt use of this contraceptive and stop condom use while still sleeping around. If the trend continued, the incidence of STDs would increase, which would change the risk factor of STDs, which would sway a subset back into condom use.

All is balance.
True, but in the article, both Partovi and Ruffin cite examples of clients who "claim they own a house, or that a relative will show up any day now", despite being injured/homeless/exposed.

To me at least, it seems logical that a reasonable person would choose shelter over being outdoors and injured for 15 years. Making that choice is their right, but let's address their mental health problems first to give them the autonomy to make that choice.
I agree with the parent and with you. And that's the rub.

If diagnosis were more accurate and peer-reviewed, with paths to release for all people, it may be more tolerable. But if someone can say "You're sick" and take you in, it's too dangerous.

A Starter's Guide to Writing Effective Meeting Notes
The biggest thing hurting startups is the fact that big companies provide health care. Having Businesses provide health care, IMHO, is the biggest issues facing job growth in the U.S.

Having been on the ground floor of 3 startups, the biggest issues wasn't salary it was health care, the only people that you can recruit are those young enough not to care, either because they are single or they don't have children. If you want to hire experienced employees the roadblock will be health care. I've lost more people than I can count due to health care issues.

Big businesses actually like to provide health care, they bitch and moan, but if they didn't want to provide it they would drop it. Big business controls the job market by providing health care, it limits employee's freedom to change jobs and start companies. Business provided health care also makes our products and services more expensive decreasing our ability to compete globally.
I'm providing empirical evidence of a verifiable claim that is either true or false. You can argue about the rigorousness of the claim, but regardless it can be independently verified.
Yep, I think people are starting to realize that unless you are (a) a founder with 20-30% equity or (b) an early employee at one of the few startups that successfully exits for >$1B without any down rounds, your equity most likely will not be worth more than $100k. If your equity is only a $100k bonus after 7 years, it doesn't make as much sense monetarily to take a pay cut to work at the startup.
Depends I suppose. They're generally free from your local doctor/clinic/sexual health charity in the UK.

Um. The 'great artists' here, per your analogy, is Apple. And in fact that quote was popularized by Steve Jobs, in describing Apple's business model. The moment the Flux people sideloaded their app they should have seen this train coming down the track. They have nothing to whine about.
This is my trick. Scheduling would be nice, but for now I just set my location based on the schedule I want instead of the one I live with.
Hm, that isn't what I am trying to say at all. In drawing a distinction, some of the virtualization tech acts like a full blown OS in and of itself, while others do not. x

I'm always curious about companies who talk about "caring about things other than just money". Maybe I'm missing somethings but if you are a for-profit company by definition you care about money, any claims other wise feel like marketing.
I thought it was patent pending. But honestly, could they really fight Apple? I think Apple would win if only because of the vast amount of cash they have.
This is ridiculous nonsense (although living in the West of the US myself, I know a few people who have this mentality). We just don't live in a world where the fact that nobody is robbing you blind is entirely due to fear that you'll shoot them. That's pure fantasy. They're not robbing you blind due to things like : they have jobs and are gainfully employed doing something more profitable than robbing people; they'd (eventually) be caught and sent to jail; and so on..
Interesting. Didn't think of it like that.
I'd say the desire to build empires is a far more dominant part of human history than fights for independence.

As for novelty, apart from drawing parallels to the establishment of the US, consider also the African Union.

The African Union includes every country on the African continent - 55 of them (as of Morocco joining/rejoining in January), and includes far more people, and is on a course towards similar levels of integration, with several free trade areas established and gradually coalescing, and several monetary unions being used to gradually pare down the number of currencies with the goal of a single African currency.

It has a long way to go to reach EU level integration, but considering how bad their starting point was (starting, in the form of the OAU with a continent that still had numerous wars and civil wars and independence struggles), what they've achieved is quite impressive.
Odd isn't it. In the UK, people are so apathetic about the EU that they won't bother voting and so exercised by the EU that they want to leave.
Even a basic chroot runs its own userland! "Userland" is just files.

In my example, /j/postgres is that filesystem that can migrate anywhere. (What's actually started is /j/postgres/usr/local/bin/postgres.) Yeah, you can just specify the IP address when starting it.
As long as we are using conttived examples could someone write a go example that had am exploitable data race? It doesn't seem that hard but I don't know any go.
It's a combination of both the American people's deeply racist cultural heritage and the common Western stereotype of Muslims being inherently violent people. So in many Americans' minds, if they're fighting each other, that's just the kind of people they are, always fighting, and it's all fine and good because there's far too many of them anyway. If you think this kind of thinking has died out, then you have a very naive view of Americans.
I transitioned gradually. Limited when/where I ate meat (eg veg at home, meat still at work/lunch). Also limited what I ate (eg no mammals).

Transitioning slowly really set me up for success. Doing so allowed me to adjust my habits. Took longer for my tastes to change.

I thoroughly enjoy my diet now. It doesn't feel like a burden and I don't feel like I have to compromise on enjoying food.

One thing that is really easy is just eating less meat. By just cutting down, you don't have to change/think about your diet. Just eat less meat, more everything else. Cutting it out entirely takes a bit more work (still totally doable).

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in having some signal analysis available. It would be a logical step from what's there now.

At the moment all filtering is done in the backend. Hearing instant-feedback though seems to be a common request so I'll have to give it some thought.

Sawtooth does keep all versions around and available (to support undo) so improving the ability to quickly play the different versions of the same file would be the easiest addition.

Thanks for giving it a try.
No because meat is delicious. Giving it up is effort and not going to stop any of the negative actions that occur from the global eating of meat anyway.
> The first step to a solution is obvious right from your phrasing: Put it up for a negotiation. Stop viewing this as "take it all or leave it".

That’s like saying we should put the right to live up for negotiation, as humans don’t need to live anyway.

If you allow free trade without free movement, companies can move all jobs to another country, and your country might end up with no jobs, and all people poor and fucked.

The only way to guarantee fairness in trade is if your citizen can move to wherever the jobs are, too.

This is a constitutional cornerstone of the EU.
Traditionally, startups had the advantage of compensating with equity/options that in time would be worth a lot of money. But ever since the laws passed after the dot-com bust equity is mostly worthless unless you're one of the founders or investors. That IMHO is the real problem here, not the big company salaries.
Exactly this. I'm a very visual person in regards to getting things done. Being able to see how a function works, would be delightful.
Thanks for this update! I had a vague notion that such a product was in the works, but having trials in the next year or two is fantastic progress.
Globalism, of course, is the only thing which can improve the abysmal quality of life of third-world citizens.

Unless you can think of a reason why a jobless Mexican will have a better standard of living than one making 48¢/hour.
If the supply for talent is somewhat inelastic and smaller than we'd like, the price for talent should go up, no?

Eventually, you'd attract talent from other regions and related industries (I can make 3 times more in computer science instead of meteorology, you say?).

You'd also see more incentive to improve the productivity of the highly specialized, highly skilled talent. This would look like less patience for things that waste developers' time, like substandard tooling, unacceptable levels of technical debt, etc.
You're 100% correct. I've edited my comment to add the caveat that I should have originally added- I'm talking about the extreme cases here.

99% of people with milder forms of mental illness do need to be treated with respect of autonomy. It's the last 1% that worry me.
I agree independent space stations make more sense than anywhere but maybe Mars. Using small, near-Earth asteroids for bulk resources at first seems likely. But for political autonomy, near Earth is unlikely. Earth's political systems will have a high incentive to have some control over massive objects moving very fast near the planet.

As I said, statistically this event is irrelevant and doesn't add anything to discussion.
But he does bring the shortfalls to public attention, he has repeatedly said that driver's should not view current version of the system as self-driving vehicle, for example.

His plan is to evaluate the self-driving capability by comparing its performance to the human drivers, in shadow mode, perfect the technology to surpass human driver (10 times safer, per his comments), then present statistics from that to the relevant authorities (who should be qualified to evaluate any claim they make on these grounds), and only then proceed to release the self-driving technology to market.

I disagree that he is first a salesman. He is an engineer - and as an engineer he knows that anything he sells has to work or the product - and the company - does not last. He knows that very well, and has bet his fortunes on his engineering skills.

He is a salesman only second. And that is why this can actually work.

So then the two optional responses are:

1. If the startup doesn't have the money to pay more, what should it do?

2. If a startup decides not to opt for any of the options, and the competitors do, what should it do?

-- Note: the competitor can be in India, for example.

> Startups are only for people who are under ~25 (maybe 30), have no families, are willing to spend all their waking hours pursuing someone else's dream, and think they're going to make bank doing it and are willing to take that gamble.

OR those over 55 whose kids have left school, have mostly paid off their debts, already achieved a few things and have the experience, strength of character and financial stability to look their 23 year old CEO in the eye and say "sorry, I'm busy this weekend" when necessary.

Rapid exit focused startups are no place for those in their 30's and 40's. I say this as someone who spent their 30's and 40's in startups but survived.
Since the actual outcome now seems to be that it'sore England leaving the UK, than the UK leaving the EU - doesn't that constitute a huge change in circumstances, enough to warrant at least a parliamentary election before the exit is triggered?

I mean, imagine if the Brexit ballot had said "Do you want for the UK to remain intact in the EU, or be broken apart with England and Wales leaving the EU?"

Or if it had 3 options

- remain

- leave

- leave, if the UK stays intact.

Leave would never had won. Which makes this whole charade completely insane.
Why I stopped “speed-typing” with abbreviations
This has always stuck with me. When I was a lot younger, in the early 90s I was dating a guy who was pretty high up in Washington state's DSHS. I remember him saying that massive cutbacks were forcing all the institutions they had left to close. I asked him naively what the plan was for everyone who was going to be released and he said "Nothing. There is no plan. There're just going to live on the streets."

I was aghast and assumed he had to be wrong somehow. Fast forward ten years and downtown Seattle is full of homeless people. Fast forward to today and multiple cities are basically overrun with them, when the population of them was tiny just 20 years ago.

I hate feeling old and partisan but my personal experience leads me to believe this is the crazy GOP policies of the 80s coming home to roost. It's certainly the most likely explanation given what I know and doesn't require some of the mental backflips necessary for other explanations.
I've had an ISP willing to put 2km of copper wire to get my 15$ / month fee. (Not in the US.) I don't think the cost of wires is significant anywhere in the US either.
Yeah, I spoke (or rather typed) too fast : it's still an injection, you're right, but at least it's not a complete surgery operation.
Never said we don't care about money. But we care also about other things than just money. And that a lot more than most other for-profit companies out there.

There's nothing wrong with making a profit either. The more profit we make the better. But it's important to decide what you do with that profit. And I much rather pay for our employees to join me for a week of skiing in the Alps than buying myself a Ferrari.

I don't want to make this look like marketing (as you already mentioned), but if you're really curious I talked a bit about it just recently on this podcast: https://mobilejazz.com/blog/our-ceo-stefan-klumpps-interview...

I currently believe that birth control should be actively employed by all parties. I look forward to a viable male contraceptive making it to market.
>But it's that "some point" that makes everything wishy washy. If I'm in favour of Scottish independence I cite common Scottish culture. If I'm in favour of the UK I cite the hundreds of years of shared culture. If I'm in favour of the EU I cite decades of shared culture. None of these are wrong, despite being in clear disagreement with each other.

Well, it's up to what the majority likes.

Everything is wishy-washy in human affairs -- because opinions differ, people value this or that more etc.

But in the end, it's also people who get, or should get, to decide what they want to do.
There are web applications that are way more demanding than this, that have run on more platforms for a while and that don't need any of these questionable experimental features.

I could understand if you said you need WebGL or WebAudio or some other hardware/OS interface. You don't need HTML imports.
Empirical evidence justifies or disproves a claim. A single point of data does not justify the claim that vegetables from Mexico are cheaper than vegetables from the EU - all you have done is state that you once found a vegetable from one source country for cheaper than the same vegetable from another country - you haven't provided any evidence what-so-ever (the name of the supermarket, the prices, the volumes, the different brands), just made a claim.

Empirical evidence in this case would be a large scale survey of the prices of comparable vegetables across multiple supermarkets, over a long period (several years to cover seasonal variance in prices).
Why should I accept any hypothesis that hasn't be proven either by controlled experiment or logical/mathematical deduction? The only appropriate stance in such situations is "I currently think this hypothesis is likely/unlikely to be true" and act accordingly (in a risk-adjusted way) but keep an open mind.

I think it would be interesting to turn the question back on you: what evidence, if any, would convince you that the broad scientific community has been seriously wrong about AGW and that we are not facing any real crisis?
