In high school chemistry I was taught that electrons existed as a fuzzy smear near the nucleus and were particularly likely to be found within various oddly-shaped orbitals. Motion of the electron was not discussed nor implied.

That may not be a perfect model, but it's a pretty far cry from "electrons go round the nucleus". My bog-standard high school chemistry textbook showed pictures of s and p orbitals and they are clearly three-dimensional. I think you'd have to go a pretty long way back to find a high school chemistry textbook saying that electrons follow a path.
You're assuming management competence (ie. that they know what they need).

I've seen way too many companies where they have 3 or 4 developers doing work which 1 competent developer could do, but they're unable to hire or retain competent developers due to poor pay. They'd actually save a lot of money by paying better.
I especially love the library management part. There's no versioning, but it's really helpful to be able to just list your libraries and have them be automatically downloaded and linked to your executable.

In the article I thought it said they monitored the brain for any activity in response to the shock and the neurons that activated were assumed to be the associated in response to the memory. This is a far cry from being able to look at a neuron in situ and saying what memory or memories are associated with that neuron.

This is an old article and may be superceded by more recent research but false memories may not have to be implanted, in some sense we do it ourselves every time we recall a memory

Some of them dont have electricity and they sleep at around 8pm and wake up early at 5 am. But the people who go to cities and come back sleep really late!
The shift has been very dramatic and the more technology is adopted there seems to be an increase in discontent in an

On a side note: Earlier the tribals used to negotiate when there was a fight or crime,But once the police station opened the people seem to netgotiate less and use a third party to resolve the issue

You should try a different angle of imagination: the guy is tied to the cabin (or maybe even the part that is directly tied to the ropes) with a safety harness. You on the other hand, are just standing/sitting in the cabin, not tied to it. Should the doors open, should the attachment somehow fail, ... you would actually be in a less safe situation than the guy. Yeah I know the chances of any of these are minimal, but the chance of anything going very wrong with lifts is on average minimal. Trying to think in another way about it sometimes does wonders for deaing with fears, at least for me.
For the last 10 years or so, whenever I wander around a store and see all the latest stereos and TVs, I'm never very impressed by anything. TVs got thinner and flatter, and then they were curved, which I just think is just a gimmick.

But recently I saw a 4K OLED TV from Samsung, and it stopped me in my tracks. Actually on two different occasions. I've never seen colors or pure black like that, and the clarity is just stunning. Anyway, this is just the first time I've ever felt the desire to save up and buy a new TV.

It would be nice if Apple started using OLED displays in iPhones, but I don't care so much about that. My iPhone 6S screen looks fine to me, and I don't feel any need to upgrade.
I'd put even odds on some sort of ML replacement for Lipinski's rule of five. But there are also whole classes of exceptions, like strategically methylated cyclic peptides.

This is just the tip of the iceberg in how animals are treated. Industrial meat production practically runs its margins on increasing the suffering of animals in a manner that narrowly avoids this kind of visible anomalies in the product.

As many others have noted in the past, slave labor and concentration camps operated on a similar industrial calculus of forcibly squeezing out value from living beings before putting them to death.

Waiting for "fake meat" to fix the problem is like saying: "I can't wait until we can grow zombies to pick cotton, then all the slaves can finally go free."
Incidentally Lebedev didn't want to have anything to do with the cloning project (ES), I wonder if that was a mistake as he could have done a better job of preserving his project by doing a similar thing like Amdahl.

Actually that would have been better for the Soviet Union, as they would have been able to export a competing IBM compatible design for hard currency (opposed to just copying it down to every detail).

East Germany and other socialist countries were producing licensed IBM machines and they could no longer export these machines after the ES system got adopted.

I used to visit Reddit daily, had to stop to try to get away from Trump mania. I cut out a lot of sites that have gone off the deep-end in regards to 24/7 Trump, such as Business Insider (it had dropped in quality long before that, granted).

Curiously while I use Netflix and Amazon Video via dedicated hardware & TV, I never use YouTube that way (and probably never will). I believe it's due to the average presentation length of content on said services and the purpose (educational/informative vs large screen entertainment).
> 3. And that nobody involved really thought this was a serious issue, much less a crime.

TFA: "Mr Johnson objects, saying that this would mean breaking the rules for setting Libor, which required him to put in rates based only on the cost of borrowing cash. "

so it seems like the people involved were well aware of what they were doing.

Also, it's been news to me that the Bank of England was actively pushing for the LIBOR rates to go down, and was not merely "happy" with them going down, and I've pretty much followed this scandal since it first came out.
I did not defend the practice. I explained why they are asking. It has nothing to do with fairness, and everything to do with employers using it as a negotiating tactic.

In other words: If you don't know what you're worth, of course they won't give you what you're worth.

"The Bank of England knew about the Libor rigging as it happened"

Isn't the implication that BoE actually encouraged it in the first place, as opposed to just simply having knowledge of? The distinction is important.
> I would be surprised if the Euro didn't have something that was closer to the federal funds rate than libor.

I used to work for a small, independent East-European mortgage-broker back when the financial crisis started and pretty much all the banks active on my country's market were using LIBOR as a reference rate when issuing mortgages, this is actually the first time when I hear about EONIA. I remember my boss telling me at some point to write a script that would parse the daily LIBOR rates from the Internet, and me being very surprised that one of few places from where I could get those values reliably was a crappy geocities-like page hidden inside a major bank's website.
Can you please provide a credible example for such an event.

Regarding your first example, Toba: we have no record of what may or may not have happened to a small population of Neanderthals 75.000 years ago, and your source itself states "Both the link and global winter theories are highly controversial".

Your second example marks the decline of a civilization, but does not even come close to what could be described as an "extinction".
The expectation derives from peoples lack of knowledge of what they're worth. It has nothing to do with fairness - it's about what they think they can get away with offering.

Based on experience, almost nobody negotiates their offers, and if you see people talking about their job moves, people are often excited about, say, a 10% increase.

That's why employers expect to be able to get away with anchoring it to your current salary.

Not really. SegWit transactions are on-blockchain like any other - the only difference is that nodes which aren't keeping a full copy of the blockchain can save some extra space by discarding the witness part immediately after processing the block. (So I guess if you wanted to be pedantic you might be able to argue the witness part is off-blockchain in some sense, but even then the transfer of bitcoins still happens on the main blockchain.)
I absolutely think JD would escape liability. Consider the more egregious cases of any number of high-profile companies who have had significant customer data breaches in recent memory.

Sounds like you're talking about the code that handles safety features.

What does that have to do with the code specifically written to force farmers to pay John Deer for maintenance and repairs? The stuff they could normally do themselves?

There is an obvious trend to make simple things complicated. Like how you have to remove the whole front end of a car to change a headlight. This sounds exactly like that.

It looks great.

However, I've used it in the past and the CSS size is _HUGE_, with no way to reduce it. We're talking about > 500KB of CSS (in my case, at least). The JavaScript is extremely bloated as well.

Honestly, being that heavy I wonder how anyone can use it. If your site is to be viewed by mobile users, adding 500KB just to style a few elements is unacceptable.

I'd much rather go with Bootstrap. It has the added benefit of having the majority of front-end devs know it, and you can buy or use a theme for free and make it look great.

I prefer controllers to have only one service. A controller should do as little as possible. Its responsibility is just to pass data from the request to the service.

The same should apply to repositories unless it is absolutely necessary. It should ideally just know enough to manage itself

A service may reference other services if it needs to coordinate actions. We need to be careful not to make huge services that contains too much logic though

I have found that this pattern makes it not only easier to structure the application, but also much easier to make mocked tests.

I have no doubt that a small number of foreigners live and work in North Korea, move around freely without minders, and are allowed to have cameras and make videos, but how do they get the footage out? Even if they work at some university and have access to the internet, I very much doubt it's unrestricted like that.

I am willing to believe some of them might smuggle it out, but this guy walks around and behaves like it's nobody's business.

You are barking up the wrong tree. I am also a Clojure enthusiast and I also use it wherever I can. I was genuinely interested to hear about a Java alternative to Spring because I failed to find any. I don't use java in production anymore though, only Kotlin and Clojure.
Note that starting from Postgres 10 (which this thread is about), you don't need to adjust wal_level and max_wal_senders (or max_replication_slots, for that matter) anymore. You still have to enable hot_standby=on on the standbys, though.

(and it is in general a good idea to keep the configuration the same as much as possible between primary and standbys).

Sure, but it's not that easy to just Google who are relevant VCs for your sector. Obviously the major firms always come up, but there are 100s literally.

The idea is to keep building this up over time too.
An important distinction between physical and intellectual property is that physical is naturally exclusive, while intellectual is not. If I use a house for something, you cannot use it for something else without disturbing me. On the other hand my using some technology does not prevent anyone else from doing the same. (Although I may prefer to have an exclusive right for obvious reasons.)

Maybe it could be a good idea to somehow recognize intellectual property as property but end that exclusive part. E.g. for books make publishing agreements public offers instead of private contracts. Just a wild idea, of course :)

It's kind of like that... except that slaves were people - not chickens. Which certainly flavors the metaphor a bit.
