So how do you explain the prevalence of keyboard add-ons for tablets?

It seems there are quite a few people out there who not only need keyboards but they even try and make them work with devices built to be entirely touch centric.
That's not any of the stuff I'm talking about. Francis is, by far, the most outspoken supporter of homosexuality in recent papal history. Francis changed church policy in favor of divorces and annulments. He's also made many modern-liberal-friendly statements on abortion, environmental politics, economic inequality, and extra Ecclesiam nulla salus. He's very obviously retargeting church policy/optics in favor of a more liberal market. My guess is he's trying to pick up a bunch of atheist-by-birth millenials in the US and EU who tend to follow these politics.
Exactly the type of FOMO and greed that's driving up prices now.

Another Seafile user here, also moved from Dropbox. I moved before the big price hike, and I did so for a few reasons:

1. It kills machines on startup. My machine had the CPU and HDD maxxed out for 30 minutes every time I started it, rendering it unusable

2. You can only sync a single folder, which is really limiting

3. The syncing algorithm is crap (well, it was for me anyway) - I was constantly resolving conflicts incorrectly

4. Probably a continuation from point 2 - it actually deleted files it shouldn't have

I'm mostly happy with Seafile. I've had a few issues from time to time with the Windows client, but overall a much better experience than with Dropbox.
>Of course not everyone can be an entrepreneur, but it also looks uncommon in the US for people to significantly invest in their partner's careers either

About 30% of mothers are stay at home moms and the majority of them are supporting their husband's careers by running the household. The majority of the women who do work, still do the majority of house work and childcare.

>It's absolutely striking how few American couples pour their resources together and run a business together.

Health insurance has a lot to do with that. It's common for one spouse to work just for insurance. Obamacare helped with that, but with it's future uncertain...

>but it seems like most are run by immigrants.

This depends heavily on location. And there are few factors at play.

-Many immigrants to the US come here specifically with a plan to start a business, and in order to become a permanent resident there are financial requirements.

-Immigrants from many countries have historically faced discrimination, and self-employment was their only available option. The networks in place to support self-employment in these communities still exists and self-employment is encouraged within these communities.

-Immigrant owned businesses often cater to immigrant communities that are ignored by larger chain stores that have driven many small retail stores out of business.
But in the real world, no one has done it better then Dropbox for simple store and sync. Which is sad but true. iCloud, Microsoft OneDrive, GDrive, Box aren't any good at all. Dropbox is only better because all of their competition aren't great.

I have six 2.5" HDD sitting here, along with two 3.5" HDD, all with photos, video, files etc, many are duplicated. There are currently no easy way to sort through this mess. I have to sort it locally before I store it online. Why cant I dump it all to the Cloud and let the sorting happen there?

But if we subtract this (presumably minor) effect from the observed redshift of distant galaxies, we're necessarily left with lower expansion speeds. In turn this means there's less need for gravity to hold them together in the various structures we observe from the galactic level up. This has the implication (I presume) of affecting inferred requirements of dark matter and dark energy.

The idea that democracy is just showing up to vote every few years should be mocked for the travesty it is, not lauded. Not that I like this particular law (filling a complaint as if school was a fast food joint is not my view of democratic participation either).
Ask HN: How do I show recruiters my work on a platform for paid users only?

how can I include my experience and prove it?

The aforementioned malnutrition of vegans. And no you do not need to feed properly managed livestock vitamin supplements.

Eating meat is fantastic because it contains a lot of macro and micro nutrients. With a vegan diet it is extremely hard to impossible to get all micronutrients.

2/3 of people trying to become vegetarian start eating meat again. Meat reduction simply is more viable.

Of course eating too much of this powerful food is bad for you. But also sunlight causes a variety of diseases and we don't try to live without sunlight. Obesity and cardiovascular diseases are not really an issue if you have a reduced intake of meat. Red and processed meats increase the risks of colorectal cancer with relative increases that seem really high, but with tiny absolute increases as colorectal cancer is extremely uncommon.

Yes, we need retail investors to be able to invest in micro cap level companies. Nobody independent is going to do well competing against institutional investors who have, better access, faster trades and teams of quants. The only way to win is to play a game they can't play. Micro caps are a good example since institutional investors can't invest in them easily (even buying the whole company doesn't move the needle much for them). The other place where independents have an edge is long time horizons. They don't have anyone to report to or any need to sacrifice the long term in order to make quarterly numbers.

As for the average person picking well, I encourage you to look at the Motley Fool community. There you'll find literally millions of hobbyist investors, some who have been chatting together since the mid 90s and many, many people doing well. Even looking at the medium-active CAPS player (basically their over/under prediction board where anyone can make bull or bear cases on any stock), it's better than what you'd get giving your money to Wealthfront or some other manager.

Blocking retail investors from micro caps would just be one more way insulating the rich from competition with the conscientious. As bad as Sarbox has been, that would be an entirely new way to make the US system less equitable for the masses.
> it's because the individual in question has a responsibility to make a neutral judgement call that will have a meaningful impact on your life.

The other reason: Sometimes an issue goes your way when you sleep with the powerful person. A cop decides to let you away with a warning, a boss gives you the job, the bank manager grants the loan/mortgage, the teacher gives you a good grade. (And conversely, you can be punished if you don't sleep with them)

If we want a real meritocracy, we need to stop flirting in the office.
I honestly have a hard time believing this--rubycon is a good capacitor brand; why would you put a 'decent' capacitor in a fake product instead of using some cheap chinese crap?
By the time the device gets to QA[1] the money has already been paid to the counterfeiter, and it's going to be hard to get that money back.

Okay, this is really interesting. I'm pretty skeptical of their methodology for assessing "statistical training." The setup could result in studying a different correlation entirely. For example, we might instead be studying the difference in a researcher who's unwilling to send a survey back without Googling or double-checking the work vs. a researcher who is busy or willing to be wrong... among researchers who are willing to respond in the first place. I don't expect that to be a productive line of discussion, though, so I'll try to ignore it.

I can't help but think of Thomas Kuhn, who argued that the institutions of science (from researchers to reviewers to the press) tend to ignore study results that conflict with the current paradigm. So as long as our paradigm is correct, science progresses extremely quickly. When our paradigm and assumptions are wrong we spend a lot of time floundering because we ignore conflicting data that should instead lead to refinements or more questions. We want to slap a label of right/wrong on something and move on to the next question. That mentality can really hinder our ability to assess anomalies later on.

This is similar to the problem discussed in the paper. When researchers decide a paradigm or test result is true or false with no further thought to the confidence level or details, you end up with a system where uncertainty and anomaly are both ignored. It then takes a tremendous amount of momentum to overcome the assumptions, which are sometimes several steps back into "accepted science" at that point. We might even throw out some good ideas from the previous paradigm as we transition. I'm not a physicist, but it seems like they're seeing this happen right now. We've certainly seen this several times with dietary health.

A decent analogy might be a hike with unclear trails and markers. At the first crossroads we might decide that left is the correct path to your destination. Once down that path, there are dozens of other paths. If we find trails that continually lead nowhere, the common human response is to keep trying well past the point where we should have gone back to our original assumption. When we finally decide to go back and try the right-side path we completely give up on the left side, despite the fact that we haven't checked every possible sub-trail on the left side.

Wandering may be impossible to avoid, even with good judgement, but we can avoid a lot of wasted time by looking back at each of our crossroads/assumptions, assessing the probability that each is correct, then moving forward in a way that's most likely to answer a new question while testing the previous assumptions. By and large this is not how science is working. We get a few studies, accept something is true, and then wander off randomly down the trails that look most interesting.
Actually not. In church you are supposed to have faith. Not so much so in science.

Changing data, changing society?
I'd change it to "You can't lead a calvary charge if you're afraid of bullets". I've found, somewhat disappointingly, that to get your self-confidence where you want it to be you have to lie to yourself at certain points. Often times the positive outcome you want in your life can be rationalized against at which point you have to beat that thought out with a reality-defying baseball bat. Much as those old calvary generals had to do. There's a little insanity involved.

Also college drop-out, former CTO of what was a successful start-up.
It shouldn't be creepy, I think, but I can see that it is interpreted that way.

I've had a few experiences similar to yours. I'd ask about something I remembered from earlier, and people acted surprised that I remembered. Sometimes the response was negative, and I got the impression that they themselves had forgotten that they told me about this. But other times, especially in a dating context, the response was very positive ('I can't believe you remember!').

As a result of all this, I've made it a personal policy to be very careful about sharing what I remember. When I feel confident that it'll be considered positively, I mention it. When I'm not sure, I act like I don't have the memories that I do.

As an aside, there's some evidence that strong memory in this regard correlates with depression. For me that strikes me as very true: I vividly remember and feel guilt over things only to find out that the other party has entirely forgotten about it.
>It sounds like in your (US-based) experience people can be trigger fired based on an honest miscommunication (e.g. a joke that unintentionally offended someone).

Yes this can easily happen here. There are almost no employee protections in the US. For the vast majority of employees an employer can fire you at any time with no notice for nearly any reason.

If there's a he said she said situation, it's generally worth it to fire any low level employee rather than risk the slightest chance of a lawsuit or bad PR even if they know they'll likely win.
I think people forget just how young the US is. When you look at the big picture, it's actually pretty amazing how far it's come in such a short amount of time.
So this is interesting. You may feel closer to people you haven't seen for a while when they are always "with" you on Snapchat -- I have certainly experienced that with people I don't talk to often or people who live on another continent.

But then again, I can't shake the feeling that this is more about fun than really being close. I remember having close friends in high school and at the university. We spent many hours a day together for several years. Can't fake that, and I doubt anything like that will be born through Snapchat or similar tools.

You sound quite certain that it has value. However, some claim that "communication" through technology can also alienate people. Some say it's a bit more shallow, that it doesn't have the same feel as actually talking to someone or even touching them for a second or two (really important for bonding).

Value is not always clear. Forgive me a drastic comparison, but factory farming strikes me as similar: it brought cheap, tasty meat to a great number of people, but the jury is still out on whether it's good.

When you're getting bad press, doing nothing/very little can be a bad PR move.
The tone of your post indicates you have no idea what you are talking about. In Europe hate speech laws are a thing, essentially it is considered a form of libel and/or intimidation. It exists across most of Europe, and has existed for decades.

You may agree or disagree with that kind of (again, fairly common) legal framework, but this has nothing to do specifically with Germany or with 2017. The only news in this article is that until now typically they would act on social media only following complaint, whereas now they are acting as if it were traditional media (i.e. acting once it is published).
Really nice idea and execution!

My two cents:

- IP restriction is not fair (lots of developers in big companies may vote only once because of their employer public IP)

- Is there a way to use your polls without having to install a software on my computer ? Like a webapp ?

I've just gone through the rules, what was your issue with this comment? In what way do you see it as trolling?
Probably in the group you hang around with, but you can't generalize that. There are definitely people in the Netherlands who will actively avoid situations where they are 1:1 with mixed genders, and not only in work settings. Since I have children, I meet much more people who are 'different' from my 'normal' crowd (which are successful university educated upper middle and upper class professionals) and I havr painfully felt this more than a handful of times the last two years - to the point where I've started to somewhat dread situations where this sort of awkwardness might happen.

Additionally, and this is even worse, it is starting to reinforce some stereotypes in me, and is making me less tolerant of those who are uptight like that about it. And this is not something against muslims either; I've had muslim women excuse themselves from me and I just thought 'oh well, when in Rome, do like the Romans'. It's when people are more 'like me' and behave like this that I get annoyed and think less of them (and their background) for it. As bad as that is.

(Edit: but what I hate even more is that this is making me adjust my own behavior as well. I start to feel 'uncomfortable' (oh what a horrible word) now in those situations because I realize others might be, and I certainly don't want others to feel like they somehow 'have' to be around me. I'm turning into a product of the society that produces millions of precious little snowflakes with the mental resilience and self-awareness of 2 years olds. I hope it's just part of the transition into being part of the 'old people'. At least that would make it 'normal'.)
My understanding is that 600 IU/day is a "we have lots of evidence that getting less than this is bad" whereas 1500 IU/day is "we know this is completely safe, and there's some evidence that it's better than 600 IU/day". Rather like vitamin C, there's some debate about how much is optimal, but you need to take truly astounding amounts in order to cause adverse effects.

> But I feel compelled to make clickety-clack noises on a keyboard, continuously and unproductively, lest people think I'm not working.

Easier said than done, but some unsolicited suggestions:

1) Acquire the self confidence that your results will speak for themselves, appearances be damned.
2) Realize your coworkers also value thinking, and recognize it properly.
3) Realize your coworkers are probably too busy worrying about their own appearances.
4) Any busybodies not too busy worrying about their own appearances can see through your unproductive busywork anyways ;)
5) Consider journaling / take stream-of-concious notes / mind-mapping. Might slow your thinking down some, but might compensate for memory some too.
