Funny, when I have productive conversations with men actually willing to listen to my side, it is such a rare and wonderful privilege that I am eager to repeat the experience.

Not really. Some people take their bay area salary and swing it into remote work somewhere else. But most of us like it here and have no desire to move. High cost of living = higher pay. High housing costs = higher expected appreciation. And most people just pay the piper and deal with it. It doesn't seem particularly difficult to afford living here, versus anywhere else I've been. It's just a different world. My sister owned a house in Rochester for 5 years, and when they sold it, they were worried about being able to get the money they paid for it, let alone pay the agent. A roof costs 20% the purchase price. All of a sudden renting looks more attractive. This is not to say you're guaranteed to make money on real estate in SF or Boston or wherever, just that it's a different game, and you can't bring all of your old assumptions into it.

Whether you're in SF or the middle of Wyoming, how many people really optimize for retirement? The software engineer in SF might treat herself to a nicer car after a few years of good raises. The rancher in Wyoming might buy a newer side-by-side for hunting trips after having a few good years. Almost nobody goes full Mr Money Moustache and restricts their spending as much as possible in order to retire as soon as possible. Most people spend most of the money they make and make a vague plan to retire somewhere around 65. So if you're going to spend a decent chunk of what you make, why not do it in the Valley versus anywhere else?

If you're looking to get out as soon as possible, ABSOLUTELY get an SF salary, move to Wyoming, and live in a trailer. Or, better yet, a foreign country with an even lower cost of living.

For the rest of us, we have hobbies, families, interests outside of work, and uprooting all of it to move to Wyoming to save some money is just as unthinkable as cutting all hobbies and travel and dining out expenses just to sit on the couch every night.

I agree that a multi-recipient GPG protected file is sufficient for a small org. In fact, that's how I used to do it Circa 2011. We found it worked quite well - we committed the GPG protected files to a version control system (git) and used githooks to make sure that only encrypted files were permitted, preventing users from intentionally/accidentally defeating gitignore.
Senior dev salary in Berlin is 60-80k EUR, >40% taxes.
Compared to SF and London, rents are still cheap though. 2BR can be had for 700-1000 depending on quality and location. I saw a post from Buffer where 60k in Berlin equal 120-130k in SF or NY, not sure if that is true.
Placebo effect is stronger when you break the skin, so you'd be better off, given your purpose, sticking yourself with (sterile!) needles than using homeopathic meds. (To the extent that paying for it is relevant to the placebo effect, which I've seen speculated on but not studied, you could find an acupuncturist.)

Also, real products claiming to be homeopathic medicines are very often provably not the homeopathic dilutions that they claim to be, which increases the risk factor of that approach.
I find it interesting that these electric cars are dropping so much and value in the first three years. More than half. And that's on dealer resell, not the trade-in value. Last time I bought a three-year-old car, the dealer resell price was about 75% of the original retail.

Some of the bigger players have been buying smaller ones but in general the sector almost hasn't changed because the consumers switch away if somebody slacks a lot -- the tricks of "we're in a merge and you may experience some disruptions in the process" and a lot of other corporate lingo absolutely don't fly around here. People just smile and switch away.

The mobile operators also pushed a lot for consolidation several years ago but it seems they didn't have the leverage (and the money) to make it happen. Thank the gods for that.

I think you can still empathize with Travis, but have doubts about how much his leave is related to the loss of his mother. It appears that the Holder investigation recommended the departure of Emil Michael. A number of other executives have also left recently. Based on all available evidence there is something happening with Uber's leadership and the board is trying to address it. Travis very well may not be in a position to do that due to his grief, but the (potential) timing of his leave coinciding with the release of the investigation's findings seems to indicate that is the primary cause.
Sounds way higher than most such studies, so I'd say yes.
Realistically, nobody is going to trust a relevant amount of money to what amounts to "some guy on the street from outside the profession."
It's a little related. The languages typically used for iOS programming encourage the use of data types whose size matches the CPU architecture's bitness. Thus, careless programmers will end up using 32-bit integer types on 32-bit devices, and 64-bit types on 64-bit devices.

I really doubt this is in any way linked to Apple's reasons for dropping 32-bit, though.

How to get rid of anxiety and stress
Reminds me of the havoc that was caused when Twitter tweet IDs rolled over. Resulting in every third party developer to update their apps (and at the time there were a lot of those).

Twitter saw it coming and forced the issue. By saying that at a certain date and time they would manually jump the ID numbers rather than wait for it to happen at some unpredictable time.
> These numbers are interesting, but could non-US folks please stop crying about the crazy high absolute numbers before doing some basic math and adjusting for other metrics besides total salary?

Quite a few of us non-US folks are in London, which is only 13% cheaper than San Francisco, so we will continue crying, thank you very much.

> the primary menu for allocating an app to images will now only allow you to select a windows store app, not a local app

I don't know what you consider "the primary menu", but Settings | App | Defaults lets you choose any app that's registered for the purpose - e.g. for me it shows Chrome for web browser and mail, and Paint.NET for photo viewer.

> and you cannot change the default program from a contextual menu on the file anymore

Sure you can. If you click "Open With" in Explorer, you get the list of several most used apps registered for this file type, both Store and non-Store. If you then click "Choose another app", you get a dialog with the complete list of apps (again, both Store and non-Store), and at the bottom it has a checkbox to always open this type with the selected app

FSudoku: a fast Sudoku solver in less than 300 lines of Python
5 lbs each session quickly gets you to a pretty heavy weight, and you may not have proper form—I did this and I got to a point where if I continued the same way I would have almost certainly messed up my back doing deadlifts. I'd temper this advice with the warning that once it starts feeling pretty heavy (and long before that as well!), you should definitely get advice on your form, be it from a trainer or friends.
Back in 2008 while stuck over night in the Lima airport I decided to crush Sudoku once and for all. Here is my implementation of a fast Sudoku solver using no fancy tools, such as NNs or SAT solvers, in less than 300 lines of Python.

Twitter's was called the twitpocalypse and it was a pretty big deal at the time. I don't know how bad it was internally, but it hit a lot of third-party apps that stored tweet IDs in 32-bit integers.

One interesting aspect of it was that Twitter realized what was going to happen in advance, and artificially pushed their IDs over the edge at a preplanned time so they could have as many people available as possible to work on any problems that appeared.
I use my yubikey and I love it. I have it set up to do GPG, SSH, TOTP, and U2F and it works great. It is worlds better then any other Smart Card or second factor out there, and U2F is literally just plug it in and tap it.

It could well turn out that the common factor here is not consuming a lot of highly refined carbohydrates (sugar, flour, etc.).

More importantly, metabolism is just incredibly complicated, with many complex relationships and effects. On top of that, there is significant genetic variation, so these will differ across individuals. For now, we pretty much have to experiment on ourselves and observe what works.
Yeah. I've also seen complaints that some lists (including my own) have _too many_ links. Yes, I'd agree that a curated list with hundreds of links can still be overwhelming, but it's sort of a repeat of the Wikipedia "inclusionists vs deletionists" argument. I'm not trying to limit my list to the "top 5" articles in each subcategory or anything like that - I'm looking at each article by itself, and deciding if it's informative, relevant, and of value. I've also done refactoring on the list over time, adding new sub-categories, breaking out separate category pages, etc, to better capture the information.

It's still very much a "curated" list, it's just that I've done a _lot_ of curation :)
It's really "Vegetarian Diets May Be More Effective for Weight Loss" for people who have Type 2 diabetes AKA are already eating very unhealthy diets, and versus the control group eating diet X. That's two separate enormous caveats.

I want to see a vegetarian diet for weight loss vs a high fat high protein meat based diet, a la: http://www.empiri.ca/p/eat-meat-not-too-little-mostly-fat.ht...

> The vegetarian diet (∼60% of energy from carbohydrates, 15% protein, and 25% fat) consisted of vegetables, grains, legumes, fruits, and nuts. Animal products were limited to a maximum of one portion of low-fat yogurt a day.

> [non veg diet] contained 50% of energy from carbohydrates, 20% protein, less than 30% fat (≤7% saturated fat, less than 200 mg/d of cholesterol/day).

What is less than 30% fat? Were they encouraged to eat low fat foods? Were some of them eating only 10% fat?

To any high fat/keto/low carb adherents, these sound like crap diets.

Not all of it is low quality, but you don't find out which one is low quality until someone dies, because of the lack of serious controls.

It might be. OTOH, there have been fairly mainstream homeopathic products that weren't, such as one of the more popular homeopathic teething remedies.

I would think anonymous contribution is likely to yield more truthful information.
That's where I see a possible out.

There are extensive collections of works which are systematically categorised. We call themm "libraries". One in particular, the U.S. Library of Congress has a corpus of 24 million catalogued works, using an open categorisation scheme, which 1) can be used to apply classifications to extant works and 2) serve as a training set by which unclassified works might be classified.

Distinguishing between expert, automatic, and local classification of content might be useful.

There are other copora, including scientific and commercially-published article indices (of varying degrees of public accessiblity), and more.

It turns out that the process of classifying information has been going on for a while.

Of possibly related interest:

My reply:

You need to first establish that the type was chosen intentionally before asking why it was intentionally chosen. Otherwise the question is ill-formed.

It looks like they are using PHP/MySQL/Javascript/Flash, with only MySQL having any explicit types.

Even so, an error is often preferable to overflow, which is usually undefined behavior and could lead to a duplicate primary key anyways if it wraps to the first game.

A better question is "why 32-bit over 64-bit", but the site dates back to 2005 where that was the norm and the question has the same issues.

In my experience the most effective diet of all is vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free. Not that there's anything special about that combination, but good luck scrounging together more than a handful of calories in the course of each day about town!

EDIT: what I mean is if society had such options plentifully available it would negate the effect. So it is similar to a diet where you can only eat foods beginning with the letter 'A'. If it's harder to meet some arbitrary criterion, it will reduce your caloric intake.
The problem is momentum. I could use unsigned int everywhere, but then I have to constantly typecast to int and back anywhere I use a library expecting signed ints. If we all switched to unsigned int by default, then everything would make more sense but we'll all live in typecasting hell during the migration.

Compilers can optimize for signed integers better. Overflow/underflow on signed integers is undefined behavior, which is space for compilers to optimize. But unsigned ints are defined for all cases, so you get less optimal code.

Also, you have problems whenever you compare against signed ints.

That is not quite correct. Some axioms systems are categorical. This means that there is only one model up to isomorphism. For instance, take the collection of all statements about the Natural numbers (using the standard model of them under the first order Peano Axioms). This collection forms an axiom system for the Natural numbers and all true statements are provable in this system. Indeed, every true statement is an axiom.

The problem with doing this is that the collection of all true statements about the Natural numbers is not recursively enumerable. There is no effective (algorithmic) procedure for determining when a given statement is an axiom or not. This means that under this system we can't find all true statements, even theoretically, using a computer because of the non recursively enumerable nature of the axiom system.

The first order system provides a nice recursively enumerable set of axioms. But these axioms are not powerful enough to deduce all true statements about the Natural numbers. The second order axioms are powerful enough but are not recursively enumerable.

Recursively enumerable was the goal of Hilbert and others because they wanted to reduce mathematics to an algorithmic or mechanical process of verification. That isn't possible and this is the main reason why Roger Penrose (and me) think that computers will never be able to do mathematically what humans can do.
A variant of starting strength is "StrongLifts 5x5", which comes with a great app (regardless of platform). My morning back pain has evaporated. The only thing I'd say is to supplement basic strength training with a calisthenics (core) exercise & pull-ups after, say, a year-or-so. Personally, I don't think the basic strength training don't focus on functional strength enough, in the long run. I still stay away from things like CrossFit — I just know too many people who've hurt themselves doing that stuff, as they're really not strong enough to do these more advanced systems.

> but you are really tricking your body into starvation.

Our bodies are not organisms that may be deceived. Thus, you are not "tricking" your body--it's simply utilizing a separate, historically common, metabolic pathway.

> Also it does nothing to help with our number one killer in the US, heart disease

I'm afraid you're mistaken. Most ketogenic studies and reports I've read pretty decisively say that the main predictors of heart disease improve dramatically on a ketogenic diet. LDL, HDL, and triglycerides all tend to improve.

> It really isn't healthy for you

You're mistaken.

> and most people gain all the weight back

Most people gain most of the weight back, as per any diet ever. Do you think your starch-based diet is immune to this effect? I have a very "whatever works" opinion on dieting. Your starch diet works for you, a ketogenic diet works for others, and that seems okay.
