I've been on venlafaxine 75mg (prescribed 150mg, but didn't like the increased side effects) for about a year now, I felt elevated mood a bit, but it did little to address bipolar cycling in my case. Recently I was prescribed Lamictal (lamotrigine) off label by my psychitrist as a mood stabilizer. I have just this week come up to therapeutic doses. It has been a huge change. I don't feel like I have experienced any additional side effects, and my mood is much more even. If you've never tried it, you may want to do some research online. Many bipolar patients have reported similar results.
Hi,

It's me, Clippy.

It looks like you're about to waste a lot of venture capital money.
>All the Waymo cars will have a technician who can take control in an emergency.

This is likely more due to regulatory reasons than anything else. Waymo's cars have an exceedingly low rate of required intervention.
Wow, everything you wrote applies to me, including the two alarms and the difficulty getting things done due to being so out of phase with everybody else.

A few months ago I had to work 9-17 for four weeks. With some difficulty, I managed to be on time every single day. I was sleep deprived at the end of it, and reverted to my usual 5 - 8 AM bedtime on the next day.

I don't enjoy it but I have never managed to keep a sleep pattern resembling normal for more than a few days.
Not surprised. Visited the Midwest a few years ago, and obesity was ridiculously off the charts compared to the Intermountain West or WA/CA. The are significant social factors playing out on a wide and complex scale.

My advice, if you're stuck in one an area with unhealthy habits, is to move to an area with healthy habits.
To think in 2017 that this isn't the norm around the world just goes to show how good we have it in the west and how far we as a species has to go.
Déjà vu…this is broadly the same as an idea I had around 2010, and even mentioned to a Google Translate engineer when interviewing there in 2011. Nice to see they finally did something along these lines…I can fool myself into feeling smug about it, and never had to do any of the real work!
Why not sell your data to actual public transport to make their systems better?

Why must startups keep reinventing busses (without the poor people)
What is unfair about it? Or are you using "unfair" to just mean that they have a "large" advantage?
Yes, there difference being that in the former case you get to pay twice - once in cash, the second time in personal profiling.

Also, it is possible - and not all that hard - to run Android without any proprietary (closed) Google software. The same can not be said about iOS.
Instructions say select your state from the dropdown. State is tagged required. State dropdown is empty and wont let me proceed :) Tried again an hour later and it worked.
"Adjust that so nobody but the wealthy can afford to build a NEW house. We already have it that the poor generally buy used cars (or buy with bad deals, negative equity etc...). If there were no loans then there would probably be an eventual housing shortage, but we currently have people over extending themselves just to get in the game."

Housing shortages tend to RAISE prices, not lower them. And no, I'm not going to adjust my statement, as it reflects current reality. You adjust your response.

"As housing prices fall, your rent will too."

There's not much to indicate this would be true.

"But I'm in favor of doing as much as possible to eliminate rentals as well."

So while I'm busy not being able to buy a house, where do I live?

"As an example, look at the housing bubble forming in the bay area. If people had to put down 50 percent of the purchase price, they would not be able to afford todays prices and the prices would come down."

That's assuming there aren't people buying those houses.
> The Republican congress might impeach the president if a huge scandal became impossible to deny.

No way. Republicans would burn down this country rather than admit they have a bad president.
I don't see why you couldn't. You're basically describing a time-domain reflectometer.

But it is correct for you to say "to the next obstacle" rather than "to the train". The next obstacle could be a switch, or perhaps a line welded on for the signaling system. It could even be a broken rail.
So like webtv 2.0?

I think that'll end the same as the first version
This is exactly the react/redux/flux architecture everyone is raving about.
I thought the question was going to be "why?" but instead the question they purported to answer was "when did it start?" Kind of a click-baity headline by the WP; I wish they had a "did not meet expectations" button :(
It sounds like weasel-speak for "the web service didn't crash", but our switch was completely saturated.
"The order made by King Salman, pictured, is the latest in a series of steps to include more women in the workforce to help diversify the country’s economy and reduce its reliance on oil"

So this tells us a couple of things:

1. If this whole oppressing women thing was ever about religion (that is their justification), they are pretty willing to forget religion when they need money.

2. That whole oil thing isn't going so great for them these days.
there are two counter points in that book he makes though:
1. the best players control the game by directing it towards their strengths
2. take your own playing style into consideration

> a deficiency in nicotinic receptors (where supplementing nicotine is really a solution!)

My doctor actually recommended nicotine for that exact reason. My family's history with heavy tobacco use combined (my father in particular) and my experiences with nicotine in the past were positive, so the doctor suggested trying a strong nicotine patch for a while. It worked reasonably well, and more importantly it didn't have the (many) problems the usual SNRI or NDRI. Nicotine definitely does have its own problems, but it's an interesting option that deserves more research.

(We had also discussed briefly the idea of trying a very small dose of one of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors used for Alzheimer's, but eventually decided against it, because they can be somewhat dangerous drugs.)

For decades, research on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors was limited (probably tanks to the tobacco industry). Research in this area is improving a lot, but it will take time to make up for the lost time.
They mean "Sum total" -> "Summary"

As in, that's a more accurate descriptor(?)
...I'm not understanding your rancor.

He(?) said that drawing attention to yourself while vulnerable is risky. Nowhere did he say anything about being less secure. Arguably it's the same security with more utility - better to be secure and available only to a few (because of limited advertising) than to be equally secure, and available to none because you got blocked early.

Now that last point is definitely arguable, and I think that's what you want to do, but that argument has no connection to the security of the information. Even if you think vocal advertising as an anti-censorship platform is the greater good, it doesn't make the information any more secure.

So what am I missing that explains your vehemence?
I don't know. So the premise is: "We have to invest in companies that are ethical nightmares because there's nowhere else good to put our money."

How does that absolve you from ethical responsibility? Shareholders driven by money (as almost all are) will turn a blind eye toward harm the companies are doing as long as they can get away with it, and the courts and laws lag decades behind scientific consensus, sometimes longer when the companies themselves engage in muddying the waters about the underlying science claims made about their products or the externalities of their business.

If you want to stay out of prison, you do what Buffett does. You make light of ethical concerns because taking them seriously makes people take notice, and maybe stop drinking so much coke or eating so much fast food, and then you've indirectly hurt your stock holdings, and that would be a disservice to your shareholders.

I guess what you do, if you want to be ethical, is don't buy Coke or whatever ethically dubious company it is, and hope a group of forward-thinking philanthropic billionaires buys it instead, and that they'll move mountains to reform or pivot the company to a more ethical business model.

I don't see how ethics can mean anything at all if it's not ethically bad to hold shares in a company (BH owns what, 10% of Coke?), if you're holding it for the financial returns generated by its current business model, rather than to reform the company's unethical behavior through your stock ownership. You can say it's inevitable that someone will hold the stock and someone will get those potential dividends. However, if everyone takes a moral stand, nobody will buy the stock, the stock craters, and then someone can pick up the company for a song, then do something better like using all the r&d and marketing power for developing good food and convincing people it's trendy and tastes great, which seems to affect customer perception of taste more than actual taste.

Nobody wants to pay current market cap (or 51% of it, at least) for one of those giant unethical companies just to try to use that ownership to reform the company into something more ethical. Those companies have boxed themselves into a corner through marketing. They've convinced so many people to consume unhealthy products or products whose manufacture harms the environment, and they make such a good profit out of it, that the market cap is too high and it's too expensive for reformers to buy a majority stake and do something better.

Just because I don't see any solution doesn't mean I'm going to throw up my hands and call it ethical to hold Coca Cola stock. It seems to be all the rage to redefine words though, so if you redefine ethical to mean direct ethical implications, an investment in Coke is no longer unethical. Problem solved, I guess?
first job, had a EE background, wanted a software job. Embedded software is where I could sell myself. I work on the Nucleus RTOS, have been for the past 2 years. Couldnt have asked for a better job than this. If I had gotten straight into web dev, or app dev. I would have had an imposter syndrome. Now I will have a smooth transition.
Having lived in Aspen for a while (no longer) I do have to say: everyone that lives there is extremely fit compared to say... the Bay Area.

Not just the rich people - the average person (who is more likely a retail/food service worker) is just more active - going on several 1000ft hikes in spring & summer weekly, or long bike rides, etc.

It's very very easy to be healthy there: I got fitter, skinnier, and healthier in the 8 months I was there.
I was referring to what huangc10 suggested with letting users communicate "offline" via SMS. I'm also skeptical that email is less reliable than an app push notification. The post itself even suggests that before they made adjustments to their messaging system there were some unreliability. I'd think that the use of email in the way outlined in the post is a pretty "solved problem".
I kept mine going for as long as i could until it was just blatantly too underpowered. I upgraded to the 15in retina(magsafe style, not the new one) and i'm still grumpy about the screen size downgrade.

Where is the 4k 17in MBP? The old one was 1920x1200, it would be a perfectly obvious upgrade

When I ran track and cross country at Milton High School our coaches liked to bus us to this road. It was easy for the coach to follow us in the bus because of the adjacent side roads. And it was nice for the students because it was a straight shot--no running a circuit--without cross traffic.
You don't need something a tenth the size of the Shuttle to be an effective manned camera platform, even an effective manned camera platform with extreme cross-range.

We had effective unmanned film camera platforms in space long before we had CCDs, long before the Shuttle was contemplated.

> During the 1950s, a Soviet hoax had led to American fears of a bomber gap. In 1968, after gaining satellite photography, the United States' intelligence agencies were able to state with certainty that "No new ICBM complexes have been established in the USSR during the past year."[10] President Lyndon B. Johnson told a gathering in 1967:

>> I wouldn't want to be quoted on this ... We've spent $35 or $40 billion on the space program. And if nothing else had come out of it except the knowledge that we gained from space photography, it would be worth ten times what the whole program has cost. Because tonight we know how many missiles the enemy has and, it turned out, our guesses were way off. We were doing things we didn't need to do. We were building things we didn't need to build. We were harboring fears we didn't need to harbor.[10]
I believe that pretty much every single customer has given their "permission" in that sense, the standard contract or terms&conditions would include language that says that you consent to such information "being processed by selected partners" or something like that.
The whole oil thing is going great for them. They just realize it's not going to be great forever, and they should prepare for that day.

On a related note, they are also increasing their use on solar. For one such example, see http://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Saudi-Arabia-To-Sp...
It sounds like they're making regulatory capture into an explicit goal.
They are pretty different.

Blocks are like blocks in a filesystem or on a disk, while shards are like RAID stripes/mirrors. 2^20 blocks would make for a pretty small datastore, depending on what your needs are, and seems a more serious limitation than the 256 shards.

Not an exact description, but a hopefully workable analogy.

Good luck with on-time buses in London traffic.
it's not even about criticizing capitalism (though there's lots to say about that) as it is about criticizing the philosophy of managerialism that Munger's comment exemplifies.

to me it seems like nothing less than an elite member of a specific social class congratulating himself, and by proxy those he represents, for being a cog in the big machine. Charlie's cog is a very big one indeed so he can make comments like that with no irony or self-awareness.
The whole oil thing isn't going well for them. The whole OPEC agreement seems to have holes, and fracking is becoming cheaper as the process improves putting a max on what oil can be sold for. We'll see post IPO.

I find it's quality over quantity. A sound 4-5 hours is far preferable to a broken 7-8 hours.
They threw together a bunch of contradicting studies, assigned weights without discussion of the assigning methods and parameters, then decided on an average and declared it a fact, instead of being honest and saying "we don't know either way". Based on this overall pattern i don't think i have much trust that their decision making process wasn't biased.

As for incomplete. I'm sorry, but there are no two ways about it. Incomplete means to be missing a part. It is. How important this is in the big picture is a different question.
To the FCC. Net neutrality is critical to fair access to data.profit cannot be the only value we revere
The existence of the open internet made it beneficial to interoperate; lack of it would mean that the expected market interest would require them to not interoperate.

For many markets, the natural consequence of unregulated free market conditions is to aggregate towards a monopolistic or oligopolistic market, which isn't a free market any more. The idealized economic free market isn't a stable equilibrium - it's a good position for society, but it doesn't stay there on it's own, it needs to be kept free by preventing it from devolving into the monopolistic optimum.
That's the geekspeak for '"sum total" should be rephrased into "summary"'.
Haven't look at their portfolio extensively, but their Basis acquisition, one of the earlier fitness tracker watches with optical heart rate sensor, comes to mind, which was just south of $100M, and was basically shuttered with their flagship product pulled of the market after serious issues.

[10:30 pm] Change her for the night, then sleep.

I have strict rules about making work/life balance healthy so I refuse to do anything past 5 pm. It's the common pitfall of the remote contractor. Luckily my boss understands and I perform well enough that he doesn't care. We also live in the Midwest which gives me the benefit of being close enough timezone-wise to both coasts to be able to work alongside both of them decently well. I do sometimes work weekends though, the desire to be productive all day is pretty strong.
Still doesn't work. They can't even keep their site up, yet they want to dictate policy for the whole Internet. Am I the only one who finds that absurd and beyond fucked up?

EDIT: Site works, form submission doesn't. Doesn't sound like a DDoS to me.
This is pretty laughable. To me, almost every Western country is half-broken. When I lived in the US, I was surprised how frequent power faults were there. Streets are full of bumps and corroded pipes were everywhere. And in Europe. Do they have any concept of a decent public bathroom over there? Oh, and don't get me started on how badly their trains are operating. I bet that many train accidents are due to the poor maintenance. It's probably true that maintenance is less paid an attention in poor countries, and there are more non-Western countries that are poor. But it's funny that people can get away with a claim like this. It almost sounds like a white supremacist to me.

TL;DR: Japan is nice.

I think you have some faulty assumptions. Environment variables are not usually disclosed because somebody got shell access.

It's very common to print them out while debugging, but not common to print arbitrary files containing your credentials. I have yet to see phpinfo() print ~/.ssh/id_rsa to the world for example, but I sure have pulled a lot of passwords out of it.
I don't completely believe that. Further, if these companies are not offering jobs with living wages, and expecting the safety net to pick up the slack, why are we not taxing the hell out of them? At least to the point where they pay back what they've drained.

I've used both heavily. I think paradigm is the key word if you're thinking mind-expanding properties. While immutable types and combinators are less used in Typescript (you've got me there) you can certainly get 80% of the value of strong typing, and there are several variants of Virtual DOM support.

Elm's error messages and semantic versioning are still a class above anything else, though. Sad to see it rotting on the vine like this.
> it's a claim that the growth is disproportionate to, and unmotivated by, actual value

This claim is largely unsubstantiated, as "number of pages in Wikipedia" is not a good measure of value of the whole project, especially when you take it naively as the only parameter that must numerically match expense figures in linear proportionality. I think such measure is nonsensical.

> It doesn't say anything about whether the expenditures are justified.

How you define "justified" then? There's an extensive process for financing and planning projects. The article author seems to either be completely unfamiliar with this process, or ignore it altogether, focusing only on one measure, which is number of pages. I do not see this as a good argument. Of course, the concern "do we adequately spend the money" is valid - but this concern is known, and constantly on the radar, without alarmist articles. The contribution of this particular article seems to be null - the valid concerns it raises are already known and accounted for, and the new ones are not valid.
