> But they are not more open-minded there- they are just two-faced and can turn around on a needles pin.

If you're saying they CAN be that way, then I agree, as I said in my post. Humans that suck are everywhere, and all of us have flaws. My point is that it's often (not always) WORSE in the rural areas.

OTOH, you didn't qualify your statement at all - you said they "are just two-faced [etc]" - and that sounds like someone ignoring all nuance to the issue.
Yodlee isn't read-only. They only expose a read-only API. Ordinarily you're giving them the credentials you use to login to online banking, therefore they notionally have the same access you do.

Yodlee is also beyond broken and is made available on very unfriendly terms, e.g. Pricing covered by NDAs complete with very significant setup fees, and minimum commitments.

I had a bit of a lull after 6 or 7 years. The I got a job building an entire system from scratch, learning Django (that not only gave me a big boost in productivity after Perl and CGI, but encouraged me to become a better coder). I realize now that working on new projects keeps me a lot more motivated than keeping someone else's crappy code running. Something that only requires a small team or one developer will make you feel like its your baby,rather than a small cog in a large wheel.

Avoid enterprisey software as working with that can be soul destroying (Salesforce and Marketing cloud integrations have been the most demotivating things I have worked on in a long time).

(Having said that, I think its time for me to learn something new myself as I have been using the same tech for 6 years now - Django is still great, but I need the same sort of thing for other areas of development).
You can upgrade it to normal Windows 10 for $50 through the Windows App Store, which allows you to use whatever browser you want. The goal of this device, when it's stock, is to reduce the configuration headaches that come with computers that aren't locked down and are used by students. It's not a huge deal.
From their press release:

Three-dimensional printing allows extremely small and complex structures to be made even in small series. A method developed at the KIT for the first time allows also glass to be used for this technique.

Looks like their PR isn't in sync :)

> What I want to know, how to turn your motivation back right away, without changing a job or taking a vacation.

Sometimes vacations are very demotivating. If the work situation is bad, it is nice to get away for a week, but then after a week you're right back in it again, and it can seem worse than before, in contrast to your pleasant vacation.
Lack of motivation for me typically comes when I have too many things to do (and generally they are the kinds of things I don't enjoy doing). The only solution I've found is "focus on one". Sounds simple, but often it's very hard to get the clarity of mind to look at all the e-mails in my inbox or tasks on my task-list and say, "That one.". But if I do this, then I only work on that one item until it is FINISHED. The simple act of actually completing something tends to increase my level of engagement and motivation. Then I go eat a cookie.
Only because they haven't actually lived in it yet. It's one of those things that looks great at first glance, but only after actually living it for a while do you realize what a dystopian hell it is.
That feels like such a cop-out. The tab paradigm is widely adopted and it seems strange for a terminal developed in 2017 to aim for xterm's feature set :)

At least the core developers should provide the default tabbed wrapper on top of it.

But who knows, maybe it will be successful even without tabs.
I don't know about "wild success" but the 3doodler is now sold in ToysRUs, so that seems like a reasonable metric for entering the mainstream given their area.

MicroPython seems to have acquired a reasonable level of traction in the community too.

If you look at how hard it is to pitch products like these and raise capital, then kickstarter is certainly living up to its name.
How do you install a third-party browser in ChromeOS?
> I'm pretty sure you won't be able to do that with Windows S, so, no, it's not exactly like ChromeOS.

You are correct, it's not. You can turn Windows 10S into full, unlocked Windows 10 Pro in a few seconds, and that's fee for education users.

However, Windows 10S does solve a lot of problems for education users in preventing kids from downloading non-Store apps that may not be easily removable.

Don't the REAL ID requirements make this much less true than it used to be? A lot of states are catching up now due to the consequences of not doing so.
From another article[1]:
With this ruling the Nelson decision may set an important precedent to rain in another abusive civil proceeding called civil forfeiture. The parallels are striking. Through civil forfeiture, law enforcement can confiscate and keep cash, cars in real estate without securing a criminal conviction or filing charges against the owner. Perversely under civil forfeiture, even those not found guilty in criminal court can still forfeit their property in civil court, since the latter has a lower standard of proof.

So hopefully they are correct and we'll see a reexamination of asset forfeiture sooner than later.

I've used one or more of the following for a quick fix:

o Force 8h+ of sleep (or at least lying flat) for a 1-2 weeks, if not permanently.

o Force daily exercise mix for 1-2 weeks, if not permanently. Each day: either short and intense OR long and slow. I avoid short and intense on consecutive days.

o Really good teeth and gum care to enhance QOL and sleep.

o Fasting (water only) while at work.

o Active vacation: 2-4 days at a resort/camp where you can simplify your day to "move or eat" for all waking hours, and sleep in a decent bed for 8+h. Might want to go "screen free" as well.

Good luck!

Right now I'm reading all over the questions/articles I can found related to this question.
But I can't find a similar problem or solution to mine. So I would like to comment mine here.

In my case, I really like my job. All my teammates are great people, and I like working with them. Everything seams nicely. But my problem is that I don't work hard enough, (It's not that I'm actually working hard but want to push myself more, I would be very happy if that was the case), I really don't.

Do you have any suggestions?
There's no recovery mechanism for younger people, they get services and that's it. There's income and asset tests that happen before services are delivered.

You need to carefully reexamine who the asset recovery provisions actually apply to. Among other things, it'd save you time writing lengthy comments about your mistaken conclusion.
Easily explained as an artifact of just how accurate Google's ML systems really are.

What you're seeing is a hyper-accurate snapshot of the exchange rate between "a shave and a hair cut" and "two bits"[1]. Typically you hear about the value over a much longer period of time and the average value of "a U.S. Quarter Dollar" == $0.25.

Finally, have been waiting for this for a long time now.
I'm not a lawyer, that byline seems to be misleading. Property owners ARE innocent until proven guilty. In civil asset forfeiture the PROPERTY is charged with a crime, not the owner.

Which is the ridiculous part. You shouldn't be able to charge property with a crime if you can locate the owner.
The situation is crazier yet more logical than it appears.

How do you prove someone once showed you a fake ID? Well, back in the $1 per shot polaroid / kodak instamatic era, you didn't. So the fake ID owner got away with it and bar owner got punished, which is the only reason bars cared about carefully checking fake IDs.

Now with a machine the bar has a fighting chance in court, the police verbally claim the bar served an underage patron, and the police provide a person residing in the city who is underage, but there is nothing in common between those two people, your honor here is a copy of the patron's license clearly showing he's 22 at that time and there's no legal record of my patron ever having been charged with a fake ID infraction and my patron is not the same person as the supposed police witness, so, your honor I request you dismiss the case K thx bye.

There is also the 3rd party to blame, if a bouncer knows some punk who gets drunk and starts fights, oh so sorry your ID failed the scan, now go away. "No point arguing with me, buddy, you need a better fake ID, yell at the guy who sold it to you".
In "violent scolding", the violent is a figure of speech. It's not real violence.

Like a particularly showy car could be colored "violently red". Still, it's not violence that anyone should step in to stop.
> This is the key quote for me. It's clear that if this data can be abused, it will be.

And it's so fucking sad that this is true. This kind of technology could enable Facebook and entities like it to predict when people are feeling depressed, hopeless and suicidal and instead of doing something like presenting a simple message like "Hey are you alright? Do you need some help?" nope, their thought is "this person is RIPE for some well placed marketing."

I get that this guy is likely a product of his industry and he didn't set out from childhood to prey on people's emotions to sell them shit they don't need, at least, in all likelihood. That said I certainly hope there is a hell if for no other reason than this man and all like him really, really belong there.
That is easily settled though. Apple considers them part of the OS, and so they are. Its as simple as that.

Chrome OS devices run Google’s Chrome browser & nothing else by design.

OK, some of them now run Android apps, so I guess you can install the Android version of Firefox on one or two Chromebooks at the current time, but the rest are definitely Chrome only, unless you switch them to developer mode and install a different OS.

Yeah, I understand collecting data is a part of training your model but it could be worth explicitly saying that zero data (either personally identifiable or anonymized meta data or any data at all) will be sold or rented. And if a change to that policy happens, include in the language of the user agreement that it isn't retroactive and only applies to new accounts.

The vague language is what bothers people. Probably having very strong language in the opposite direction (that you will NEVER sell any data, and would shut down rather than sell it) would probably win you favor.
It's about the same as how you'd approach modern programming, except instead of watching variables you'd watch registers and addresses in RAM/VRAM and work backward from there. Hell, you could even look specifically for instructions that manipulated those addresses.

I don't think your raiding pockets of kids goes with reality. Why then did ACA let kids stay on parents insurance to 26 even if married? Millions of kids got free insurance by hopping on their parents plan. Millions of kids got better medical treatment for no money out of their pocket.

ACA isn't perfect but it's way better than we had before.

I think you've oversimplified the legal situation here. Many states' laws do allow parents to give their children alcohol, but they may also allow the parents' practices in this regard to be considered as a factor in finding that they are unfit parents, which is a determination that should be made by a formal hearing, considering various evidence.

This may seem kind of bizarre, and perhaps the criteria in many states need to be made clearer and more objective, but it's not an inconsistent position. In many contexts the law allows parents to expose their kids to different kinds of risks, but if the overall amount of risk is considered too high, then the parents' fitness may be questioned. In the alcohol context, a judge might consider that letting children drink at meals in their parents' presence was not unfit parenting, but knowingly allowing the children to drink every day without any supervision was.
The wording of your comment makes it easy to interpret it that way.
I might be in a unique situation to handle this (smallish company, fairly independent), but I just tend to bullshit my way through a work week when this happens.

I will talk big and vague in meetings about what I've accomplished. I'll talk about why what I'm building turned out to be more complicated than thought originally, and will take more time than allotted. If necessary will build interfaces that look like I'm doing the work when in fact I'm not.

Keep in mind, I don't do this maliciously to "steal" from the company. I do this because I have a certain amount of creative energy, and sometimes the well just runs dry. I can't think about complicated things (much of my job is architecting systems) and I have trouble focusing. Instead of pushing myself to burn out further, I understand it as part of a boom/bust cycle and take a break at work. Sometimes this lasts up to a week (even more in a few cases).

Then one day during the bust, I'll get the wind back in my sails and start up again.

This happens once every few months, although sometimes it can be triggered by a larger project. Sometimes I'll allot a week for something, not do anything on it, and then complete it all a day before it's due. When I say "not do anything" I mean I'm not actually coding, however I think my subconscious is mulling the problem over and I'll have an "AHA!" moment when needed.

Really, it helps to get good at bullshitting and buying yourself time. Practice, practice, practice. Once again, not maliciously, but for your own well-being. Pad your days out when giving estimates to people.

Hope that helps/is applicable to your situation.

The arguments raised in favor of this motion, sound reasonable and applicable here in the West as well.

> "Rohatgi contended that the right over one's body was not absolute as the law prohibited people from committing suicide and women were barred from terminating their pregnancy at an advanced stage. Had there been absolute right then people would have been free to do whatever they wanted to do with their body, but the law did not recognise the absolute right of people over their bodies, he contended."
Find a way to take a mental break in some form. If not a vacation then embrace a new hobby. Find something unrelated to work that is different and enjoyable, and do it often enough to find enjoyment and relaxation in it.

You also might just be burned out, or bored. In which case a vacation, switching things up, or even a job or lifestyle change may be in order.
From my non-lawyer skim of the dissent, this appears to be its core:

>The Court today announces that petitioners have a right to an automatic refund because the State has “no legal right” to that money. Ante, at 8, n. 11. But, intuitive and rhetorical appeal aside, it does not seriously attempt to ground that conclusion in state or federal law.

In the rest of the dissent, Thomas discusses the due process that was available under Colorado's Exoneration Act and indicated that this law did not automatically entitle convicted persons to an automatic refund of any fees associated with their convictions, partially because state law ordered that money to be dispensed via victim compensation funds.

This highlights a potential chilling effect of this ruling. As states are now on the perpetual hook for any monies that may be confiscated from someone who is eventually exonerated (and in the case of white-collar crime, this could be millions of dollars), and since you can't know that someone won't be exonerated in the future, states who are interested in keeping their budgets balanced will be incentivized to hold such money in escrow instead of dispensing it for victim's relief.

If the exonerated individual could demonstrate his legal entitlement to those monies, he was free to bring a suit under the applicable statutes to do so.

Because the law applied equally and anyone could seek relief, Thomas appears to believe it does not violate the 14th Amendment.

If the people of Colorado did not think this was fair, it was within the purview of their representative government to change. The role of SCOTUS is not to make sure the world is fair; it is to review statutes for compliance against the Constitution and other relevant federal law.

In short, it seems an accurate summary would be that, in Thomas's opinion, the Court's opinion was "activist judgeship", as they merely thought it "intuitively and rhetorically [appealing]" that a state would not be entitled to the funds already paid by an exonerated person and already dispensed by the state, but could point to no law codifying this "intuitive and rhetorical appeal".

Again, IANAL.
I think they do for me. But that's 100% anecdotal and not even single-blinded.

I agree that the P&S cameras have been made obsolete by phones, yet it is all about the sensor size and the geometry and physical size limit the phones in that regard, unavoidably. The low light performance, zoom, etc will suffer. I think the DSLRs are outdated as well by the mirrorless, such as Sony and micro-four third cameras.
This is a problem that a lot of engineering types fall into. We as technical people think that the best technology will win, but that's not true. The best technology that the most people have heard of for the most reasonable price will win.

> When he went to Germany and tried to force their hands by feigning he might grexit, to his amazement the private response was more or less, how can we help you gtecit?

That's very poor understanding of what he did. What he said was we won't accept any more loans that we can't pay back and requested a sort of new deal for Greece which of course, included a large debt haircut.

He was never pro-Grexit. He was arguing that even throwing Greece out of the common currency was impossible, etc.

I understand that his way of doing things might confuse some people, but if you take the time to read/watch his interview his thinking is crystal clear: He wants to change the EU from within not disintegrate it. In fact he is trying to save the EU from itself (e.g. Brussels) by democratising the processes (e.g. add mics and records to Eurogrops, etc.).

Plus, I the ECB effectively closed the GR banks he had a plan of putting the ECB (Mario Draghi) against the Bundesbank. His own party kept him down stripping on of his only weapon by re-assuring the ECB behind his back that they'll not allowing him to use it. His plan was very clever.
Probably a combo of that and circular polarizers.
