> Yes I meant exercise. Have you checked with a doctor about your issue ? Can you swim (should be best for body&mind) ?

Yes, my doctors told me that my system is such that is vulnerable to excessive exercise and sudden weather changes.

> Do you eat healthy food ?

Yep, Greek food all day and all night.

> Do you get enough sleep ?

Like a good looking princess.

> Do you know python (or some other lang) ?

Yep, I know Python (Django is sexy!), C, C++, PHP, JavaScript - Node.js (ES2015 / ES6), some Perl / Lua, etc etc.

> Can you check projects on upwork (or similiar) and start from the bottom and work your way up (what I did) ?

I have tried remote jobs and could not compete with Chinese, Indians, and Pakistani developers. They offer cheap labor and a rich portfolio, whereas I was not given the slightest chance to compete; so I gave up on that.

> Can you do a program where you list all your issues and beneath them list several optional things that you think you can do/try to improve them, put them on a todo-task-list and try to work on them everyday (by marking) and doing/checking some stats ? (is there a program for this, kinda want it for myself too)

Being an OCD person obliges you to be organized lol, so yeah I have done my TODO list and I have it right in front of me right now to be honest with you. Comparing my past self with the present one, I have improved by orders of magnitude.

> Where do you live ? Have you tried checking meetup.com or similar sites for activities/events to do (..hard in mountain I guess?) ?

In Cyprus. As an introvert, I can't stand being surrounded by people. It exhausts me within minutes and I need to get back home, to get in my room to recharge. Some times I get so exhausted that I need vitamin support to heal; it sucks -_-

> Any drugs ? Like, do you smoke ?

COFFEE! LOTS AND LOTS OF COFFEE!

Yes - the current incarnation and ONLY the current incarnation - I.e. iOS10 and Sierra, is bulletproof and fast.
As I mentioned in another comment, it was a bit exaggerated example to illustrate a point, not to make the people nitpick it.

The corner-cutting in the current tech culture is a bit too much for my taste.
Browsers usually limit the number of requests to a certain domain (around 8 requests if I'm not mistaken, but it may vary). So I don't think it'd be the cause of a self inflicted DOS.
Also, every solution must be used carefully where it makes sense, if it doesn't make sense, then a different solutions must be thought of.
Eventsourced aggregates in Haskell
Yep, there are definitely exceptions to my "generally reasonable in isolation" idea, where the software is just bad, in any context. I've seen 'em. Hell, I've probably written 'em.

Anyway, good luck. I've been in similar situations. It can be overwhelming, but if you have executive buy-in, you have a big opportunity to establish a new direction and effect significant change.
I dated a woman who was a life coach for a bit. She had absolutely no qualifications to speak of. She decided she didn't want to go to college, so she became a life coach instead.

From what I could tell, she basically operated like a personal cheerleader. She didn't have any particularly sage advice, instead she just would repeat mantras about motivation.

She was baffled that I accomplished my goals, since I'm such a cynical person that I had to be self-defeating.

Now I'm definitely extremely cynical, but I don't think it's particularly wrong to look at an entire industry based around masturbatory self-interest and think that it's not sustainable and mostly exists to justify a decision to live in continual near-poverty.

Here's a fun one -- go up to anyone at one of these digital nomad events and ask them how much of a balance they are carrying on their credit cards from month-to-month. I think maybe 1 in 10 people I met had more cash than credit card debt. Maybe 1 in 25 had anything saved for retirement.

I know, I'm a wet blanket.

JS is necessary. But what do we do about the extensive tracking and extremely unoptimal requests, for which we already have numerous articles out there?

If there's no soft solution, disabling JS altogether is a good fish net for a lot of people -- yes the percent is close to a rounding error but the absolute amount can go to 1 million or more.
> Having been raised Catholic and now a practitioner of meditation for many years my experience is that meditation is nothing like prayer nor does prayer confer the same benefits as meditation. I

Having been raised Catholic, and still being Catholic, having been taught various meditative practices outside the Church and seen some of those practices taught within the Church (and broader Christian community) as means of prayer (both explicitly, by name, as the meditative technique and other times simply teaching the same technique without reference to meditation), I would have to say that Christian prayer overlaps with meditation.

There are forms of prayer that are not meditative, and I have no doubt that even for similar techniques simply the presence or absence of religious loading in the intent makes a difference (in what direction differing between individuals) in practical effect for many people, but they certainly are not categorically disjoint domains.

OTOH, I don't think the suggestion upthread of reading and reflecting on the Bible as an alternative to meditation for the same purpose is a particularly good one,especially for those not already Christian. Reading and reflecting on the Bible—or the Quran, Tao Te Ching, etc., can certainly have value, even for non-Christians (-Muslims, -Taoists). But generally that will be distinct from the value derived from meditative techniques, unless the "reflection" itself uses those techniques. And even then, the use of the religious source material as the basis is more likely to be distracting than helpful in the meditative sense for those not already at least positively inclined to the religious content.
Security Awareness: Don't Be an Ass and Assume
You've missed out the bit where cows only produce milk for their young to drink, and so you need to keep breeding these milk cows.

You get a bunch of calves. Half of those are female, and go to replace the older dairy herd, which are killed. The other half are male, and there's no use for male dairy calves, and so they're all killed while quite young.

The selective breeding of dairy cattle has caused some genetic problems with modern cows.

All of this applies to the free range end of dairy farming.
I feel like the blame too often goes to insurance companies, but insurance companies are a natural player in a free market system. When you are sick, last thing you will do is shop around 10 different doctors and compare prices, instead insurance companies do this for you. They negotiate a price with the provider, and if the insurance company isn't happy the provider risks not being in-network and loosing a large pool of patients. In an ideal world, this system should work.

What I'm worried about is hospital consolidation.
https://image.slidesharecdn.com/annenberg-frakt-150324142714...

We have created a regulatory environment with high fixed overheads, so:
a) consolidation lowers the fixed costs, encouraging entities to centralize these fixed costs to minimize them
b) makes it difficult for new independent players to enter the market

Rather than a metro area having 8 independent hospitals all competing against each other (giving insurance companies a lot of leverage in negotating prices with providers), that metro area might have 2 companies with 4 hospitals each, so you have 2 companies that know what the other's hospital charges for services, and in their own interest of profit aren't interested in getting into a price war with the other.
Very true. I would also add therapy. There is no way for "work" to get you this mad this often. The things that are making you angry at work are triggering deeper and more personal issues. Usually when I am angry, the root is a sense of guilt about something else.
Your point holds, but some rivers are also just naturally muddy - like the Missouri, which is shallow and wide and travels through that exquisite Midwestern soil.
Guns are extremely unpopular in the UK, so unless something insane happens like UKIP winning outright, I expect most police will remain unarmed.

In fact, even if UKIP did win outright, I doubt there are enough qualified instructors to train a significant number of police with firearms in just a few months. I think there are only about 1000 officers in the UK with firearms training at the moment.
Can HomePod Make HomeKit a Winner?
Unfortunately, this still requires location services. I really wish Apple would allow true background photo sync.

From your link:

To upload photos in the background:
iOS apps cannot perform background tasks for more than 3 to 10 minutes. Using geofences to add locations will trigger and resume upload tasks in the background for another 3 to 10 minutes whenever you leave or reenter the defined areas. Tap > Geofence > Create to add geofences.
I've had this one coming. Serves me right to believe contrived example won't be nitpicked. :D

> I'm no historical linguist, but I'd take this finding with a bunch of grains of salt. Eurasiatic language families that seek to combine, say, Proto-Indo-European [2] and Altaic [3] languages are pretty controversial, and in general this paper reeks a bit of glottochronology [4], which is a pretty controversial topic in historical linguistics itself.

It's worth pointing out that everybody who actually studies the relevant Altaic languages now agrees that the Altaic family doesn't exist, not even in 'micro-Altaic' (just Mongolic/Tunguskic/Turkic languages) form. Basically, the consensus is that the similarity between those three languages arise from deep contact rather than genetic relationships (think what happened to Old English after the Norse and Norman invasions on its way to Middle English).
Well, as with everything:

Before using a library blindly
1. Ask yourself which problem you want to solve
2. Educate yourself
3. Does the library solve you problem
4. Use with caution
5. Learn from you mistakes :D
I think getting to emotional at work is its own problem. If you could just control your emotions after work, you could probably temper them enough during work to not have this be an issue.

For emotional health, it seems rather arbitrary to draw a line between 'at work' and 'at home'. The only real difference may be in what those environments consider acceptable, but you can't just switch between intensity levels. Emotion is, kind of by definition, not fully within your control.
Software Hacked to Fake Global Warming
Yea, totally, the commons existed for thousands of years because it isn't sustainable.
It's not a protocol issue.

A universal protocol would only handle the "data in flight". The other issue is "data at rest" which is storage problem.

As analogy, SMTP is a universal protocol and yet email giants like GMail/Hotmail/Yahoo exist. They store emails. Average users don't want to point DNS MX records to their laptops running home mail servers 24/7.

- Dropbox-the-client-software simplifies "data in flight".

- Dropbox-the-cloud-storage simplifies "data at rest".

Since storage costs money (e.g. see Amazon Cloud Drive drops "unlimited" plan), it means there would be conflicting business interests from OS vendors at that infrastructure layer. This why a company that was _not_ Apple/Microsoft /Google/Redhat such as Dropbox was able to fill a gap.

Alternatively people want to take some risk off the table - and hedge their options. A lot of employees are going to have a lot of money locked up in SNAP options and this let's them "diversify" the risk.
Coming from someone who tried to do this setup, it wasn't worth it. CrashPlan's client isn't something you generally would want to run on your NAS, it takes memory proportionate to the amount of data on your disk (and a fair amount of RAM, at that) and unless you're running an GUI on your NAS it's impossible to configure without a huge headache.

You can run it from your workstation, but if you've got a reasonable amount of data on your NAS then the memory issues will bite you again. Something like Backblaze B2 is more expensive, but I'd rather pay $10/mo to backup the 2TB of data on my NAS (growing every day) and use CrashPlan to backup my computers only.
Yeah? How about from the inside?

Lighten the mood and then talk to the universe/world (whatever you want to call the something that we are all a part of).

I know. I know. That might sound weird and all. But, it is the only thing that helps me. I grew up a very calm person but after many years in the military and a couple of combat deployments I seemed to develop a very strong aggression issue. I'm calm most of the time, but when something gets to me I can get into a deadly loop where it just gets worse and worse. It starts to feed on itself. Then, my wife can say something small and my internal monologue gets darker and darker and whinier and whinier.

So, yes, don't let it get to the "edge point"...that is hard. That takes a long time of understanding yourself (talking to the universe or journaling is the best way that I feel I make progress in that area too.) So, the first step when you get to the edge is to return to being happy. It doesn't matter what it takes. Watch a stupid video on YouTube. Just get back to a place of "happy" even if just for a moment.

Lighten the mood. Then, start journaling. But, the goal of the journaling shouldn't be whining: "why me, oh why me??" I've done that a lot. It is really not helpful at all. It makes it worse over the long-term.

So, what do you journal/talk-to-the-universe about? You start investigating who you are and why the current situation is making you upset. Start asking yourself: why am I angry. But ultimately, the goal is to drill down until you find the good in everything. For example: "Why am I angry that Joe is fighting me so hard with what I know is a bad direction as far as design patterns is concerned? Why do I care at all? Because I want to built software that I'm proud of. Don't we all want to build software that is well built and a meaningful creation? So, what Joe doesn't want that? Of course, Joe wants that as well. We just have different ideas about how to make the best software possible. By why am I so fired up and angry about it? Because I don't want to believe that I'm coming to work each day for nothing..."

Just keep going...even 15 minutes can make a major difference. I've had times in life where it took an hour and sometimes when it went on for over 6 hours. There isn't a goal in terms of what you are getting at. Productivity is certainly NOT the goal of the exercise. Just talking/writing is the goal of the exercise. In the end, my wife is happier and I feel that is the larger goal. I want to be kind to other people, especially my wife, rather than burdening people with negativity.
100%. I remember talking to my 14 year old niece about her seeing a therapist. She comes from a very old-fashioned area and I told her that some people would judge her for doing it. My next words were "Fuck. Them." She's never heard me swear before or since and I think she'll remember what I said for that reason.

I've seen a therapist, again for anger issues, for an extended period of time. Have never regretted it. A couple of points that I'd make in general that may or may not be useful:

First off, there's things you have a right to be angry about and things you don't. In the latter category, it's okay to feel angry, but it might be worth delving deeper into why that is. In the former, again it's okay to be angry but you want to think about what you can do to get yourself out of it. My wife just switched jobs for this reason.

Second, society pulls a real number on men's mental health. Plenty of emotions are considered weak and not appropriate for men. This gets re-routed to the acceptable emotions, notably anger. It's worth thinking about how this effects you.

Third, sometimes you're not angry about what you think you're angry about. Therapy really helps in these situations.

Fourth: it's ok to be angry. It's not okay to take the anger out on people. It's also really hard not to if you're constantly angry like I was. Apologise, a lot. The apologies will start to sound thin pretty quick unless you're taking concrete steps to do something about it, but in any event, always be sorry.

Sure, but B2's pricing isn't too expensive anyway. If I had all 7TB of usable space filled up on my NAS it'd cost me $35/mo - that's easily doable, even for a digital packrat like myself.
I think it depends on the country and its regulations -- whether the profession is regulated at all. Anyway, coaching etc. is no therapy because the clients aren't (mentally) ill or anything. There is nothing to cure, which is what therapy is about.

The trouble here is, I think, "unlimited" tends to just mean "a lot" and for Average Joe that's fine. If you go to an all-you-can eat buffet, you will eventually be unwelcome after you have 20 plates stacked on your table. Is that a business problem or a customer abuse problem?

The ugly fact is the Unlimited Amazon Drive has been abused by media pirates and data-hoarders to store up to 20TB (and sometimes more) at what any reasonable person would say is an unreasonable cost. Not to mention, much of this media is accessed and streamed often. Wander over to /r/PlexShares to get an idea: imagine if someone had 20TB of 4K and BluRay movies stored on your service @ a very generous $60/yr, streaming that data 24/7 to 10, 15, maybe 20 people via Plex (with each streamer paying the media manager $10 a month) all over the world. While torrenting all day. Suddenly that sounds more like abuse IMO.

Of course, I agree that you shouldn't call something "Unlimited" if it isn't. But it's not a one-sided issue and I thought I'd bring that up. I don't personally know anyone, in real life, who uses Amazon Drive. Most people don't even know it exists. The only time I see it discussed, especially the "unlimited" tier, is on /r/datahoarders and /r/seedboxes as an exploitable deal.

As far as I can tell, Prime Photos will remain unlimited. I wonder how long it'll be before media hoarders hide their content in Google/Prime Photos with a convenient CLI tool?

I was the original author of this gem, so it is nice to see it here on HN, I have since passed it on the the caring hands of Semaphore since they wanted to maintain and improve it :-)

The software was built for a forum where the admin buttons was only for specific users, but the rest of the frontend was the same, so we used render_async to render some content for some users, and other content for admins, and the rest of the page could be cached statically.

We later changed it to use edge side includes with Varnish. An example of this is where you add the to your HTML:

<esi:include src="http://example.com/1.html" alt="http://bak.example.com/2.html" onerror="continue"/>

This will make Varnish fetch the URL(s), assemble the page and present it to the client, so your backend might see more requests, but the client only sees one.
Why is this a gem? It's two view helpers and like 30 lines of Ruby code, if that.

I've solved this problem the same way probably 5 times in rails apps and it's super easy to build this interface in yourself without taking on another dependency
