Thank you!

This really hits home for me. It's exactly how i've feel but always get ridiculed for because of the sheer number of people who are prescribed it and that it works for them so I must be wrong.

I don't doubt that some people really do need it, but I was not one of them (I didn't respond well to them) and I have a hard time believing so much of the population actually needs them too.

But if anything, better solutions / alternatives need to be presented and made available before people are just thrown off something that has helped them handle some really tough stuff. But the problem with that is, then the drug companies wouldn't make so much money. (which, I think plays a large part of it)
If that's the argument, I'm not convinced. We as a society try to influence the saner parts of what parent mentioned, such as values and pox parties.

Passing on genes, well we generally don't want to prevent that, because, contrary to forbidding circumcision, the cure would be worse than the disease.
This probably happens a lot. The people who have the technical knowledge, and probably are educated and know what's going on, they use VPN or a different DNS-server. This has happened before, and Turkey has blocked 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in the past, just for this.

But I bet this is not about the people that can circumvent this. It's for the people outside of the cities, the ones who don't have this knowledge. It's meant to make sure they don't know what's going on. That's more important than convincing the people that can't be convinced.
I'm a big proponent of NN, but do you think it would be popular to screw with people's internet? The "internet is serious business" (these days).

I have 2 offices, so 2 schedules. Here is the one for the shared desk in the center of my hometown:

[06:45 - 07:00] Alarm goes off, most of the time have a shower.

[07:00-08:30] Wake up my older son, make him breakfast, prep for kindergarten and take him there (~50 meters). Also ready myself in the meantime. This is very intense because my son often does not really want to go, he'd rather stay at home. But being there he loves it - kids :)

[08:30-09:00] Eat (if not IF'ing), read up on HN and general news

[09:00 or 09:30] Off to the office (8m by bike), catching up on email and more HN/media

[10:00] Start billable work

[12:00-12:45] Lunch with friends in coworking space

[13:00-17:15] Billable work

[17:15] Cycle home

[17:30-19:00] Family time, dinner (Cooked by me, most of times), or, very seldom, billable work (putting out fires).

[19:00-20:30] Force older son to brush teeth and go to bed, then I surf HN or Netflix on the phone while we lay in bed and he listens to an audiobook; or I read or tell a story

[20:30-~22:30] More HN, often TV with fiance, very seldom side projects, sometimes billable work. Lately, playing with toddler daughter, but not as much as I should or wanted to.

Reading what I just wrote, there definitely is room for improvement.
The law section you linked to is concerned with PII, personally identifiable information. But what ISPs are most likely to sell is anonymized browsing data, i.e. when an advertiser goes to display an ad the ISP will tell them what other URLs you've been to but they won't tell the advertiser your name, address, social, etc.
It definitely does not have 100% clean energy.

There is some good stuff in this recipe. It's a great starting point for learning.

I built a wood burning pizza oven and have been doing experiments for 5+ years, and what I've discovered is only certain things make a taste-able difference.

1. Oven. 900 degrees baby. Pizza cooks fast, and tastes delicious. You can get the "leoparding" on the edges. 100% worth it if you have time and space.

2. Yeast. Get the Ischia: https://www.amazon.com/Italian-Ischia-Camaldoli-Sourdough-Cu... it's a very light sourdough that imparts a delicious almost floral taste. I put a little bit of IDY in the mix to help sometimes, but this yeast is delicious.

3. Autolyse. Let everything but the salt sit for 30-45 minutes to generate gluten.

Here's my dough spreadsheet that auto calculates ratios and hydration %:

Your rebuttal fails to take into account the multiple, actual reformers also mentioned here.. Jan Hus, etc, for starters..

It should also be pointed out that the notion of 'reform'
here only applies to one portion of christendom, the western portion under the roman pontiff, and so is already a self-selecting sample subset..
Everything We Know About Salt May Be Wrong
> A job that needs a top-up of benefits from the government is economically better for the government than that person relying entirely on government benefits.

Unless the government could instead be paying that person to do something useful for all of society, instead of something that benefits only me. This election has shown that millions of people want meaningful work.

Like teaching and caring for children, filling potholes, building bridges, laying down light transit rail, digging trenches to bring fiber to slow-connection areas...

Every single time we talk about infrastructure, we are constrained by how broke the government is. Meanwhile, real unemployment is at 9%, and public funds are paying underemployed people to be greeters at Wal-Mart, and mowing lawns at the Google campus.

I also assure you that my subsidized servants will not be bringing down the price of bread at the grocery, for anyone - poor or otherwise.
It's not a shadow ban
I had a similar experience after ending my 15 years on Concerta/Ritalin. I was so used to feeling "always on," that it warped my worldview. That, to me, was more disconcerting than having to reevaluate my understanding of myself.

I can identify with my medicated self, because I am always in some sort of flux and I accept that ambiguity. I cannot relate to my medicated worldview; I am out of Plato's Cave.
Have you done a sleep study? I used to feel this way about my own sleep schedule, turns out I sucked at breathing and sleeping at the same time (sleep apnea).
I support strong net neutrality of Title II oversight of ISP's.
This is true only for erasure RS-codes, but not for general RS-codes. In erasure RS-codes you must specify which points are corrupted and the decoder discards them.

For general RS-codes you don't need to detect which points are corrupted.
An intuitive explanation of the decoding process here is that, if a small number of evaluation points are corrupted, then the original degree n polynomial is still the closest polynomial to the (slightly corrupted) set of evaluation points. The decoding algorithm uses this fact.

This however comes at cost. General RS-codes can correct only half as many errors as Erasure RS-codes.

An alternative is to eschew conflict resolution altogether, and have various edits co-exist. That would basically be like the fork model on GitHub. The main issue then is how to help the user choose between competing edits. That's where metrics based on upvotes or the social network topology can help.

We have some prior work on building a peer-to-peer wiki and dealing with the issues above: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cpe.3420/abstract

At this moment, it is enough to use Google DNS or some VPN to reach Wikipedia in Turkey. This is good case, but IPFS is just an overkill.
They're simply saying that in terms of tax policy you can do something like:

* Carbon tax forecast for X billion in revenue.

* Let's knock X billion off of income taxes (or whatever else you want).

This is what Washington State tried, although the measure was sadly opposed by "environmentalist" groups like the Sierra Club.
I don't mean to be sexist, but I've wondered purely out of curiosity if the decline in wages is related at all to the entry of women into the work force. You've nearly doubled the number of wage seekers without necessarily increasing the supply of jobs.

I also wonder if two income earners are likely to earn more money than a single income earner for a given labor demand, considering overhead of employment, which I think has also increased over time (e.g. benefits). That couple explain some of wage stagnation, I'd bet.
Summary:

On average, workers born in 1942 earned as much or more over their careers than workers born in any year since

The trend has also widened the gap between the rich and everyone else as, overall, the economy has continued to grow overall but the bulk of those gains have ended up in the pockets of the affluent.

While economists have been concerned about recent data on earnings, the new paper suggests that ordinary Americans have been dealing with serious economic problems for much longer than may be widely recognized.

The new research shows that in the past, a good guide to forecasting typical career earnings among Americans of a given age has been their average income they were 25.

Young workers’ incomes are still declining today, suggesting that their trajectories over the rest of their careers will be lower as well.
> What's the actual "engineering work" you are trying to do without interacting with people all the time?

Building systems. Adding features to software. Debugging it. Anything more trivial than generating and wiring classes that someone else designed for you.

I guess a lot depends on the kind of work you're doing. In all of the projects I worked on, 90% of work time would be spend on actually doing it, and only 10% on talking about it (and most of that at the beginning, and then at some critical moments in the project). After the design discussions had been concluded and we've settled on appropriate division of labour (critical aspect: modularity, so that people can work in isolation and have to agree only on interfaces), it was mostly individual work.

Now don't get me wrong, I love helping others and answering their questions, or sitting with them and figuring stuff out. Just not all the time, and not in the very moment I'm trying to do something cognitively demanding (like redesigning half a dozen subsystems, or carefully weaving in new features requested by the client in a way that doesn't disrupt the rest of the application).
I suspect you might outperform 3 coders. Going into an office is a distraction and waste.

I purposely came off rude in my comment - probably contributed to the down votes. But I do think it's a big worry for many people here in the west when an ideology that is diametrically opposed to what we are use to over here is not only succeeding but thriving. It feels like people here have already given up; on Reddit, the buzzword is now basic income (i.e., give me free stuff). Pew survey shows Americans are essentially expecting to regress while people in China are very optimistic.

"When children today grow up, will they be better off financially than their parents?"
http://www.pewglobal.org/database/indicator/74/survey/17/res...

People want change, but they're unwilling to consider anything else - democracy, like all systems have pros and cons. Learning from the successes of China doesn't automatically mean adopting the full ideology.
I guess this is a chance for me to plug https://ipfsstore.it

It was a weekend project I knocked up about a month ago.

In short, you can pay 4 cents a month (in Bitcoin) per gb to have my ipfs node pin your files.
I think general motivating sentiment is that you want people who actually live and work in the area to be able to given a favored chance at owning a place. That may be conducive to growing and solidifying a community.
This also views all theological/philosophical systems as equal - perhaps the 'need' for reform was 'dictated' by the actual 'incorrect' religious circumstances of the particular system luther existed in (late middle ages RC in the west)
I understand how TCP/IP works. Are you saying that latency issues are something that cannot be fixed without creating something analogous to artificial scarcity on content that you stand to profit from?
Does it matter that China places huge tariffs on imported goods? Ever heard that they limit American movies to a few Chinese releases a year? Other industries are similar.

China is incredibly protectionist of their own industries and engages in widespread subsidies and import tariffs. I'm not sure why anyone cares about the US returning the favor.
And at my university the philosophy department was in the college of arts and sciences; does that make philosophy science?
I'll read all of the details you provided. Thanks a lot. It may be lack of knowledge in our team, not kubernetes. Sorry if I was too frustrated and blaming the tool instead of my lack of knowledge.

Re proxy: Not only that, but also. Let's say you have single instance deployment, and run kube-dashboard. You want to access the dashboard on localhost:8080 so you start the kube-proxy shell command. What actually happens is that the go code underneath kube-proxy will redirect the request through your $http_proxy, even if localhost, the dashboard's internal address, and your hosts external address are in the $no_proxy environment. And if your network proxy doesn't allow the dashboard's port you get a HTTP 403 instead of the dashboard.

Re storage: We have a cluster with 10+ nodes, each with 5+ disks a 10 TB. How would you make sure that your software talks to the correct disk, after it gets restarted and may end up on another node?

Re limits: The highest goal is not avoiding ressource exhaustion, the highest goal is service continuity, though. It can all run on 100% and die. no problem. I just need to know that I should exchange the first few disks/processors/machines before the customer facing service slows down.

Allowing ISPs to use publicly supported infrastructure and their natural monopolies to guide consumers towards ISP owned services helps low-income users how?

If 1 or 2 ISPs eventually own all commercial content creation, I can assure you it won't be good for low income internet users.

There are several possible solutions to this, ramped up enforcement of anti-trust laws, forced sharing of last mile infrastructure etc... Net neutrality isn't the only possible fix. Which fix do you prefer?

To your point about not needing fast download speeds. What's considered fast today is just "required to browser the internet" tomorrow. I used to get by with a 28.8kbps modem, but that's not a viable option today.
What seems to be happening is that the price of the Model 3 is creeping up. The base model is supposedly $35K, but you get an undersized battery, no self-driving sensors, and probably give up some other things. The typical model is currently expected to be around $50K. This is not unusual in automotive; the profits are in the overpriced upgrades. (There is now a $60,000 Ford F-150 pickup. The base price of that line is $27,110.)
Bingo. Then you have IPNS, which uses a public/private key system to broadcast updates to a mutable hash value. So you can take the IPNS public key for so-and-so's Wikipedia mirror, query the network for the latest hash signed by the corresponding private key, and use that hash to fetch content from IPFS.
I have come to accept my schedule. I work afternoon/evening shift (3 - 12 AM) and after work, I cannot sleep at all. I used to beat myself up for not "getting to sleep early" and waking up late. However, once I changed my mindset, I really don't mind anymore. We are a household that sleeps during the early part of the day, and we are an afternoon/evening kind of people.

So now, I work on my side projects and do whatever I got to do between the hours after 12 AM and before 5 - 6 AM. Once this time begins to approach, usually when I start to see hints of the sun, I prepare to sleep. I end up sleeping anywhere from 10 AM - 1 PM. And I don't mind at all.

I have embraced the fact that I can't sleep after work. Sometimes, if I have to work an earlier shift, I will just train myself to go to sleep earlier, and I might eat some almond butter or take some melatonin gummies to help aid me in sleep.

If I do set an alarm, I usually set two: one to remind me that I'm alive. The second to remind me that I have to get up. The first is normally set an hour beforehand, while the latter is an alarm set around a half hour before I have to actually wake up to let me know: Seriously, get up.

I sometimes still beat myself up for being so lackadaisical -- like I've been having to get an oil change for at least a week now, and I just can't seem to get up in time. But eventually I get myself in gear, bite the bullet, wake up a little earlier, and do what I have to do during those hours I would usually be sleeping.
Ah, Edge.org, the Medium of the late nineties.
There's a quote from Founders at Work that relates to this. Basically the observation was that they'd never seen a startup actually take off with people who weren't working side-by-side.

Except when you commission an artist, you don't get (and pay for) 20 paintings you didn't want in addition to the one you wanted. Rolls also doesn't send you a Chrysler, Chevy and a BMW along with the Rolls you bought. In fact I think you'd be hard pressed to come up with another luxury good that's priced this way.
Antidepressants are overprescribed (just like how Ritalin was like 15-20 years ago) because they work so well that doctors reach for a pill as their first course of action while ignoring other less life altering options.

Some people also find themselves with side-effects like suicidal thoughts or loss of sexual functions that can be devastating, and in some cases will last beyond the use of the medicine.
This is one where opinions are widespread and mostly the choice doesn't matter so much, hah.

Fwiw, I've been pretty intrigued by the idea of dotnet on linux lately (integrates with postgresql and everything). dotnet isn't exactly hip, but C# is fast and it's mature (and has some pretty dope functionalish features. You can run F# if you want to, too). Planning to try how well this works in practice soon.

There are things I like a lot about Elixir, but also plenty that I'm not quite a fan of.
Thanks for looking into it. (Btw, I wrote that Quora answer you linked to.)

Yes, the donation banners sound slightly less alarmist these days (partly due to year-long efforts by myself and others), but most people who donate still think there is an acute hosting costs crisis and ask no questions about what the money is spent on, and what benefit that spending brings to readers and contributors.

For example, I would like to see WMF spend money on displays giving readers a rough idea of an article's health and reliability (based e.g. on the quality of the cited sources, and the contributor mix - it's quite easy to distinguish an astroturfed article from a healthy one, if you know what to look for). No interest.

I would like them to spend some of their millions to give contributors free access to sources (paywalled services, digitised books, online libraries etc.) But that's not where their spending priorities are. What they do do in this area seems more like a fig leaf.

I'd like them to do research on known problem areas in their content (such as PR editing and political and other kinds of manipulation, especially in some of the other language versions) and to issue consumer warnings for these known flaws, but they prefer to sweep them under the carpet.

To my mind, the WMF are very provincial and inward-looking: tinkering with the software, PR and fundraising come first, readers and contributors last. Until that changes, I don't recommend donating to them.
Yeah, cutting off bits of a child's penis is only something "MRA weirdos" could possibly object to. Come on.

The middle class is decreasing mainly because of divorce and thus the creation of single parent homes; additionally middle class families leave the middle class because BOTH parents work and thus moving them into the upper class - when if one of them worked they would stay in middle class.
I take most of these articles with a grain of salt. The Washington Post has not (lately, at least) been a source of hard hitting analysis. Additionally, this study has not been peer reviewed, but they certainly treat it as though it has.

Looking at the charts and the analysis - one concern raised is that workers starting out in 2010 had lower real wages than their counterparts from 1969.

A really simple explanation might be that in 2010 we were still in the deepest part of the biggest recession in recent history. What do you think that would do to starting wages?

I know there is a narrative they are trying to tell, but in the past 12-24 months they are so obviously biased I simply don't believe anything they write anymore.

Edit: I might add that I worry very much about the decline of the middle class. The problem is I don't trust any news source to tell me objective truths, and the more I dig for this information the more the black and white rhetoric doesn't seem to fit.
If you're a C# guy: There's the csharp interpreter (run .cs files) or, potentially even better, there're F# scripts.
