Looking at your list of stuff, I'll offer the cautionary tale that walking around with a big backpack can cause injuries.

About a year ago I went to NYC for a business trip with a heavily loaded backpack and wound up twisting my ankle; this slowed me down for at least six months and still hurts a little on a bad day. A few years back I had a similar incident where I tripped while carrying a heavy backpack and smacked one of my quadriceps on the sidewalk. I managed to walk a mile and a half to work, but when I got out of my chair I found I couldn't walk. At the urgent care I got a prescription for Percocet, which was a big help; I was off my feet for 2 weeks, but the injury healed pretty quickly.

As a result, I reduced what I carry and developed some travelling methods to minimize weight, such as "living off the land" as much as possible, putting any pills I take for a day in a separate pill bottle that I throw away when it is empty.

As an American (born and raised), this whole discussion is fascinating and is similar to the 'Obamacare' debate here. All of the Indians I've known in the US corroborate your claim about knowing one's religion/ heritage by last name alone. I hope the discussion can remain civil, but there does seem to be an agenda among some participants.
I know this is gonna be an unpopular opinion:

IMO both of them are already on a plateau. Google keeps abandoning products, Facebook keeps buying promising startups and quietly shuts them down (Google does it too). In Google this mostly happens due to some weird geekdom culture / peer pressure thing (coding hipster-ism?), and in Facebook it's more like "we want to conquer the world".

Both companies' strategies are not sustainable. The world is already catching up and I suspect that now it's time for suing the hell out of everybody who isn't sharing their vision while being even slightly competitive to them (opinion, not a fact, no evidence for that, don't kill me).

One only needs to follow recent HN for news about decentralization efforts and slightly increased amount of articles about self-hosting to understand that a good part of the tech world is getting fed up with Google and Facebook.
I like this project, and really appreciate that there's a Linux version. Looks very polished, friendly and inviting, so kudos.

Maybe some code samples could be a good addition.

I used a similar program to learn assembly, GNUSim8085, targeting the Intel 8085 architecture and is packaged for most distros.
Thank you & others who've reviewed the UI. I appreciate everyone's feedback!!!

I'm glad I asked here. I'll get to work on Marketing and user testing and report back here in a few weeks!

Towards the top of my 'advice to the young' list, is to obtain a king-sized bed as soon as possible after leaving home. (In AU these are around 2030x1900mm - though there are regional variances with the same appellation).

Partly so you don't end up with a collection of incompatible sheeting as you slowly trade up bed sizes for the first few years of living away from home, but also because it makes it more likely that your sleep (arriving, leaving, and the bit in the between) patterns are much less likely to disrupt your partner.
My wife and I came to the realization that the Europeans are onto something with the twin size duvets on full size beds after visiting last summer. Fortunately, neither of us snores much but she prefers to sleep with far less covers than I do. What used to be a constant battle of covers being tossed aside only to fail at reclaiming them later in the night now allows each of us to determine our own sleep temperature much more easily and with far less disruption to the other.
CFTR, being a chloride channel, most likely leads to diabetes as a consequence of its effects on the voltage-regulated insulin release in beta cells from glucose sensing. [1]

It strikes me as unlikely to be related to the salt-wasting that occurs from failure to reabsorb chloride in the epithelium.

Ask HN: College Decisions MIT, PSU, Stanford
Finishing up junior year in high school, I am in a position where I need to choose which college I would like to pursue for engineering. I am fascinated by Aerospace Engineering but my AP physics 1 teacher has me thinking about majoring in physics. He is a very savvy teacher and he has opened my eyes to the path of physics. I am currently in the position of most likely being accepted into MIT, Penn State, and Stanford. I have a 4.5 GPA thus far throughout high school and scored 1540 in SAT (800 math, 740 Reading) and a 34 ACT (36 math, 32 English). I am fully confident that I will be accepted into those schools yet I am clueless on where to go. The outlier of the 3, Penn State is where I have deep family alumni connections where I am being nudged towards that College. The campus is beautiful but I do not know If I will get the "greatest" education there. MIT is hands down the greatest engineering school in the world and when i visited it was also amazing. Stanford however is located in California with another great engineering program.
I have no idea where I should go to ensure a great future for myself. All help is greatly appreciated.
jeez, say what you will about the guy, but no one can deny he's been through one hell of a rough patch this year. Condolences to him and his family.
Yes, I have been. It is, in part, my experiences and suffering that shapes my opinion.

I do not want others to suffer, even if I have, even if I have directly because someone wanted to inflict suffering on me.

(And, consequently, I do not want suffering enshrined into the legal system or power structures.)

I think it is probably a lot more complicated than that. CF does a great many things to the body. It is an inflammatory condition and I have seen multiple articles linking diabetes and inflammation. People with CF tend to be seriously underweight and I have recently seen articles that link inadequate muscle protein to insulin resistance. There is no doubt more than that going on, those are just a couple of things that occur to me off the top of my head.

You can find many studies that show a negative impact. You can also find many that show no effect (eg, https://itep.org/wp-content/uploads/guide8.pdf). Among those that show a negative impact, many are either based on models rather than real-world data (like the one you cite, for example), or are examples of cherrypicking, where an impact is shown over a short period in a single nation. But even in studies where there is an effect, it is usually small. For example, https://www.ntanet.org/NTJ/49/4/ntj-v49n04p617-42-taxation-e... notes "In general, studies of taxation using cross-country data suggest that higher taxes have a negative impact on output growth, although these results are not always robust to the tax measure used." Translation: the effect is ephemeral depending on how you measure the tax rates. Hardly a ringing endorsement.

Common sense suggests that if there were truly unambiguous evidence that high marginal tax rates truly harm the economy significantly, the left and the right would be united in championing lower taxes. This is not climate change; there is no broad scientific consensus being resisted by a handful of special interests. There is genuine confusion in the field on this issue, and the absence of a clear answer itself suggests that the effects are minor if they exist at all.

I have a different experience, viz. that sharing a bed reduces the jitter in my sleeping patterns, with long-term benefits perceived in cognition, mood, and self-care. It'd be interesting to make a proper data analysis.
Honest question, most of the plots I see on r/dataisbeautiful or other pop data science sources would get me heckled at a group meeting. Does this mean a) my group is exceptionally harshly pushing for clarity and precision and life will be "easier" in the real world or does it mean a good chunk of statisticians in the field do poor work?

Judging by the upvotes there is a lot of interest in hearing answers to this question and yet there are few comments so far. I will share my thoughts but keep in mind that I am (extremely) biased as I am one of the core Nim devs.

> How has your experience been compared to your previous tech?

Previous to using Nim I was primarily using Python. This was a few years ago now, but recently I was working on a project in Python and found myself yearning for Nim. There were multiple reasons for this, but what stuck with me was how much I missed static typing. The Python project used type hints which I found rather awkward to use (of course the fact that we didn't enforce their use didn't help, but it felt like such a half-baked solution). Dependencies very often required multiple guesses and searches through stack overflow to get working. And the resulting program was slow.

As far as I'm concerned, Nim is Python done right. It produces fast dependency-free binaries and has a strong type system with support for generics.

Of course, that isn't to say that Nim is a perfect language (but then what is). For example, JetBrains has done a brilliant job with PyCharm. Nim could use a good IDE like PyCharm and with its strong typing it has the potential to work even better.

> How mature is the standard library?

To be honest the standard library does need some work. In the next release we do plan on making some breaking changes, but we always lean on the side of keeping compatibility even though Nim is still pre-1.0. Of course, sometimes this is not possible.

> How abundant are third party libraries?

Not as abundant as I would like. Great news is that you can help change that :)

The Nimble package manager is still relatively new, but you can get a pretty good idea of the third party libraries available by looking at the package list repo[1].

Hope that helps. Please feel free to AMA, I'd love to introduce you to our community.

Quick tips:

- Icon in the nav should be 2x the final size and scaled down for high resolutions screens. If possible use SVG as that will scale ad infinitum.

- The search appears broken in Firefox, the culprit seems to be the "v" (down arrow). For testing several browsers I recommend https://www.browserstack.com/

- You are missing the "Apply now" inside each individual job, which is IMO the best place to put it.

- I would make the country flags a bit smaller. Maybe put them side by side in a continuous way in a more compact way.

Otherwise, as others said, it looks perfectly fine for a launch. And it also seems like a really useful service.
Or correlation with basically everything else. I sleep better when in a separate room than my wife, because if that happens that's probably because she was being nice and shielded me from my morning duties, and let the kid jump in her bed in the morning.

In order for those measure to make any sense OP would need to follow the exact same routine with and without his girlfriend (in the same flat of course). Otherwise it is measuring the general effect of living with somebody (different activities, different morning arrangement, different commute, ...) rather than the specific sleeping arrangement effect.

Now I'm not discarding the effect, however after a few years together, you start getting used to your bed partner. The stuff that really matters is if you have enough room and sheets to make it work. In the extreme case, a queen size bed is basically 2 single bed joined together and is a cheaper alternative than the extra half a million an extra bedroom costs.

edit: reread the article and it seems OP actually talk more about the effect of living with somebody rather than the physical sleeping arrangement. Comments were drifting in the "physical" direction at the time I commented.
I definitively share the same experience - obviously with a kid and wife, I have much less freedom in my night and morning routine. Not sure I'm sleeping better, my wife definitively is - her stress level is way lower when she knows I'm home and she sleeps more deeply, not woken up by every little noise (the effect has been mitigated slightly since we have a child though)
I'm interested. You've mentioned when you got the Fitbit, but haven't mentioned how long have you been sleeping together. Considering that you have recorded ~13 months in total, is the amount of data you have approximately the same or is the amount of data tilted on one of the sides in any way?
Hmm maybe something that can take care of ETL part of the workflow.

IBM has the resources and infrastructure others firms don't have. It can afford to pay higher rates for the top IT people and it has the software and management and the backup in the US to ensure that projects are performed properly.

But as a rule, Poland, India, ...other cheaper locales don't offer the quality of the US, Israel, ....look to the places where the world's top software/computer chip design/hardware is being designed and built. There is a correlation.

For example, Israel has a population of only 8 million yet creates more original software and startups (purchased by developed nations) than all of India. India buys hi-tech military technology from Israel (and the US).

OT, but I'm now super conflicted about whether the correct quantifier for covers is "less" or "fewer". I think I agree with you that "less" is more correct, but my inner pedantry can't shake the feeling that it sounds weird.
Writes are atomic in redis because redis is single threaded. So you are bounded by how fast redis can write. If you try to write any faster then redis can handle you'll get queueing or errors.
Same age, everyone is different, but my experience is at least in your 20s when you're getting your first tastes of cohabitating relationships:

1) Starting cohabitating relationship: First a transition period where you lose sleep, but then you sleep like a baby, you don't stay up late thinking or worrying about x,y,z. The downside is you find yourself in a stagnating ball of comfort and end up challenging yourself a lot less because you're just too comfortable. (I look back at how lame I became in some of my cohabitating relationships, and could say the same for others I know, but would not to their face.)

b) Leaving cohabitating relationship: You sleep like a baby at first (nice surface feeling of independence), maybe for a couple months even, but then you grow anxious and feel negative effects of dependency withdrawal, and then end up losing a lot more sleep staying up late thinking or working. That can last a while, until you find another cohabitating relationship or find a deep rooted sense of independence again.

Again, likely different when you're older, but I think that's the general trajectory of being in cohabitating relationships in your younger years.
I honestly don't know what to make of this. Is this a good or a bad sign? Too long? Too short?

I understand your point in that there are martial arts that incorporate modern weapons. Probably a nit, though I'd consider 3-gun and IPSC sports or events rather than arts themselves. Similar to how people can practice and train in different martial arts, but when they compete there are specific rules they need to follow depending on the event they're participating in.
It'd be the first build system for any JVM language that would be nice. I don't know what it is, but they all seem to come with various amounts of suckage (started with Java when GNU Make was the most advanced option, via ant, maven, gradle, buildr, sbt, ...). It must be the JVM. I worked with Scala for close to a decade now, and my conclusion is that its advantages (type stuff) are mostly theoretical, and its drawbacks (sbt, type stuff, the JVM, slow compiler, the mess of features) are mostly practical. I'm happy to have mostly moved on.

What about a king size bed? With dual twin size coverings? I'm not judging - but sleeping in the other room or on the other bed seems to defeat the point of being together, no?

I was married for a long while - and I miss it. That said - she only weighed 95 pounds, so maybe not having to deal with king-kong in my bed helped.
They're not useless when you don't have time to program your own CMS. Wordpress is good for blogs. It takes no time to set up, is crazy customizable and widely supported. Writing your own solution in whatever nodejs-react wonderland would take much more time than is necessary.

Thanks for being honest with everything, I found this to be a very balanced answer.

What would you say are the advantages of Nim over a language like Go? I see a lot of similar "value add" statements.
If she sees this your problem may well fix itself :)

I do agree about the merits of a large bed though. With a wife and two huge dogs things get a little crowded but since I've been an insomniac since childhood this is merely a new version of an old problem.
