Can you tell us more about what was holding you back

I can trace the domino trail back to as young as 3-5, and being very nervous, fearful and anxious. Some early negative social experiences may have been the genesis, and some of it may be inherited (those fearful/anxious tendencies are evident in both my parents and my sister to some degree).

From there it's just a pattern of negative experiences compounding, though with the frustration of showing a lot of promise and potential (being somewhat naturally gifted in academic and sporting pursuits, and having some success socially and romantically as I reached adolescence), but always finding I'd sabotage myself, and every time that happened I'd come away feeling worse about myself.

As I matured into adulthood the pattern continued: showing promise and having good opportunities in my career, social life and relationships, but always finding a way to mess things up, and becoming more angry, resentful and paralysed as time went by. By about 28 I was just falling apart and finding myself largely unable to function, and was increasingly exhausted and bedridden.

Since I started working with subconscious healing techniques 5-6 years ago, I've been able to learn about how I've held onto all of those negative experiences and how they've been increasingly paralysing. This makes sense as an evolutionary self-defense mechanism; the more you find that your efforts to progress in the world cause you to have traumatic experiences that you can't understand, the more your mind/body applies a "braking" mechanism, to protect you from further trauma until you can understand what's going on and learn more healthy and beneficial behaviours.

So really that's what the past 5-6 years has been about: using subconscious healing practices to understand how/why I was self-sabotaging, using that understanding to identify more positive/productive behaviours, put those into practice, observe results, rinse/repeat. The first 2-3 years was mostly just slowing the decline and bottoming out, and the subsequent 2-3 years has been a steady and accelerating path of improvement, in which career, friendships and relationships (and energy/enthusiasm) are all in good shape and getting better all the time.

I'm reluctant to share too much about exactly what techniques I've used, as it can too easily turn into a pointless arguments with determined skeptics (of which I used to be one), and I just don't need to play that game anymore.

In the mainstream medicine realm, CBT seems to be the one that does the most to work on the subconscious mind, though the little of it I've tried didn't appeal to me.

Outside of that, things like meditation (if it works for you - it didn't for me), hypnotherapy (Milton Erickson-style), breathwork/breathing therapy, EFT/tapping are all popular.

The specific techniques that have been most effective for me, I won't mention here as they really need many hours of discussion or reading to be fully understood and accepted, but you can find plenty of online material, including videos and books, by searching for things like "subconscious healing chronic fatigue".

Hope that helps.
Yes, proles and animals were free, but right and powerless. So they could also be killed for whatever reason. (did not happen in the book, because the proles did not matter). But you could not choose to be a prole. If you were a common outer party member - you could not change, even if you wanted to be a prole.
The cost for ESPN is something like $8-$9 per month so a lot but not the overwhelming cost of a cable TV bill. I also think you overestimate the number of people willing to totally give up being able to watch sports. I know I watch very little but I hesitate to totally cut the cord.
> The real kicker is that STILL many errors produce a window where I can't even fucking copy the output. Why that is still a feature, I have no idea.

BTW a standard way to do it is to just press Ctrl+C in such window without any text selection or context menu. Because such messages could be shown when system has no resources to create context menu or text selection, and that was very important in 16-bit days.
Interesting (although anecdotal of course), thanks for sharing.

From a scientific perspective this should not be a controversial hypothesis. Consider the use of placebos, their use in studies and effect perception can have on the body is well established...

However they are not explained. Getting to the bottom of CFS (if it is in-fact a severe psychological-physiological condition) could reveal some interesting physiological basis for the broader effect.
I agree, although the author is apparently very respected!

"Conclusion
The work supports the assertion that CFS should not be considered to fall within the spectrum of mtDNA disease. However, the current study cannot exclude a role for nuclear genes with a mitochondrial function, nor a role of mtDNA population variants in susceptibility to disease. This study highlights the need for more to be done to understand the pathophysiology of CFS."

Clinically proven mtDNA mutations are not common in those with chronic fatigue syndrome.

His channel was re-instated which... was nice, I guess.

I have watched hours upon hours of his videos (I've been a fan long before his PC controversy - I love personality theory and the twist he adds to them).

I'm pretty centre left as far as I'm concerned and his videos do not in any way promote anything nasty. He's completely upstanding. I have no idea why they'd ban his channel unless there was a coordinated flagging.
It's not Apple's work to do. It's not in their interest to document everything. What applies to internal APIs applies to lesser extent to the detailed workings of the OS, like the init system, themeing, etc.. If it is documented, people will depend on it, or write low-level tweaking tools that Apple doesn't want to exist.

What is good for customers and developers might not be good for Apple, and vice versa.

(A separate issue are the user docs, e.g. how to use Finder. I guess they are good enough, I haven't found the need for such docs.)
I think services like Spotify or Google play music are already much easier than pirating songs. Why do you think a similar state cannot be achieved for TV shows or movies?

Firefox even displays the IP address in dotted notation in the status bar on hover, so it parses the URL before displaying where the link goes.

While nice, I can't help but imagine the mayhem once someone finds a URL parsing bug that leads to remote code execution. Then again, URL parsing is decades old now, the odds that it still contains a RCE is probably low.

That's an impossibility because evil depends on perspective.

This is why we have free speech rights in america. If we determined others to limit our free speech by their perception of evil, then atheist speech and lgbt speech would be banned. Pornography would be banned along with "offensive" music. Hell books like huckleberry finn would be banned.

This is why we cherish free speech rights in america ( or we used to ) and why we have the saying "You have the right to be offended".

I find the costs for producing films and TV shows a bit absurd. I'm sure they can optimise a lot, but they don't because they're used to paying 100 million dollars for a superhero movie. They can easily get 99% of the production value at far lower cost.
The portion of gold's market cap attributable to consumer and industrial demand is miniscule compared to the portion attributable to its wealth protection function. Bitcoin is a better mousetrap for that use-case and the market is figuring that out.

The market's decision about what to use as a store of value is a market-wide Schelling point decision based not around "what asset has underlying value" as any underlying value is quickly dwarfed by the magnitude of the value that needs to be stored, but instead the Schelling point decision is based on what asset has the best properties for money. If you look at what has been money in the past, you'll see examples (like giant stones) that were clearly not based on underlying industrial demand.

This would be such a trainwreck if enacted in the way Bannon wants. That being - he wants the ridiculous unsubstantiated drivel on his website to be given the same priority in searches as ACTUAL journalism. You know "to be fair". Because, for instance, someone searching for the history of the earth should be greeted by Bible passages being treated as a valid alternative theory to dinosaurs.
Thank you WSJ, NYTimes and the traditional media for pressuring youtube, facebook, reddit and social media to censor.

People aren't aware that for the past few years, traditional media and social media has been battling behind the scenes over content, narrative and censorship. It was a major war going on that the public was simply unaware of. Suffice it to say, traditional media won.

It is amazing how a select group of news organizations and their editors and journalists can use their bully pulpit to intimidate certain industries.

96% of households have TVs (http://www.nielsen.com/us/en/insights/news/2016/nielsen-esti...)

As far as ads. Neither Netflix, Starz, Hulu or CBS All Access (the on demand part) have ads -- for CBS and Hulu I pay for the no ads subscription. Because of a quirk in the way that channels work in Plex, I don't even see ads on the Plex channels.

As far as what a house needs, people would also say a family of three doesn't need a 5 bedroom house in the burbs, could exercise outside instead of turning one room into a gym, my son could use the one tv to play his PlayStation instead of having his own TV, doesn't need gigabit internet and every room wired with a gigabit connection, etc.

But honestly life isn't always about needs. If we decide that we don't want to compromise between three people in what we want to watch or where we want to watch it, what's the big deal?

Not really. On most exchanges, the transactions never hit the blockchain - it's all internal accounting within the exchange.

All this speculatory activity creates liquidity, at least on the exchanges where the speculation is taking place. That's generally good for outsiders who need to exchange bitcoin for something else (on said exchange).

Except for a few flash-crash scenarios (or failures of the exchange), this shouldn't have much impact on price volatility on day/week scales that average people care about.
Yes, but the OP reply has a point, anecdotal evidence is often a factor in finding off label uses for pharmaceuticals, so it's worth recording and investigating anecdotal evidence, it's certainly not the basis for ongoing advice, but it is a starting point for possibly worthy research.

"When a drug is prescribed off-label, however, the risks may increase. That’s because the safety and efficacy of off-label uses has not been evaluated by the FDA. Instead, off-label use is often based on smaller sample sizes and anecdotal evidence, such as how well a particular doctor sees that an off-label use has worked for her patients in the past. While information like this can seem compelling, the drug hasn’t been put to the same rigorous scientific testing and analysis as it has for its on-label uses. Unexpected side effects can pop up, some of them serious."

That sounds horrible. Well done and best wishes on the road to recovery.

Have you tried meditation? Try to focus on all of the good things during the day at the end of the day, for a sustained period, regularly, for a few weeks. Celebrate small victories and slow progress. (There are other techniques, too.)

Also, change of environment can often be a positive trigger: if you can afford it go someplace cheap for a few months with an audible beach and sunlight, different food, etc. Somewhere totally new and alien, preferably with a new language... and strictly reduce screen time to a minimum.
I imagine the model would come from moving things on rollers, out perhaps from turning food on a spit.

From a piece of wood hanging on notched or Y shaped branches on which to hang meat for smoking/cooking to a spit to a pulley doesn't seem to far?

A simple barrow is a couple of sticks with a pulley. Though the utility over a simple dragged carrier is not much.
Not only that, they need to do facial recognition for that setting to work.

> Imho the problem comes from the fact that corporations try to hard to be "democratic" about things and "please the majority".

Corporations aren't trying to please the majority. They don't care about the majority. Besides, the majority wants free speech.

Most americans don't want jobs being sent to china, but the elite do. Which side do you think corporations chose?

Youtube and the rest of social media are censoring because the WSJ, NYTimes, etc have been pressuring them to. And the WSJ, NYTimes and the traditional media doesn't represent the "majority", they are the mouthpiece of the elite.

Think about it for nearly 10 years social media has been highly "pro-free speech". The WSJ, NYTimes, etc do hit pieces against social media and put pressure on them and all of a sudden, it's relentless censorship.

The monthly costs for a landline phone certainly dropped. With the same amount of calls it would be lower today than the 1980's, without even adjusting for inflation.

Worlds sufficiently different from Earth are monocosms, from our perspective. On Earth, temperatures range from -40 to +40. Change that to -75 to +5, and you've got an ice planet, even though a species adapted to it might find -40 as different from -20 as we find a swamp from a savannah.

Similarly if we encountered a planet identical to earth but where the sea level was 2km higher, we'd think of it as an ocean planet, no matter the biological or climatic differences between different ocean areas. All the while, aliens from a less watery world would certainly classify ours as an ocean planet. Or if we found a planet with the atmosphere of Venus, we might call it a fog planet, though any lifeforms living there might see in wavelengths that can penetrate that fog.
For large scale A/B testing you need a certain amount of visitors first to get the necessary statistical significance, otherwise its feedback is unrepresentative as well. A lot of side projects probably don't have enough visitors for that.
Lots of reading are available to technical people who are willing. People elsewhere in this thread have mentioned Nagel and Newman, and also Smullyan. Here are two more:

1) Smith's Introduction to Godel's Theorems http://www.logicmatters.net/igt/ is a great book, with all the mathematics but willing to go into the philosophy.

2) Franzen's Gödel's Theorem: An Incomplete Guide to Its Use and Abuse http://www.ams.org/notices/200703/rev-raatikainen.pdf is enlightening in a different way.

I'll also mention a favorite author around here http://www.scottaaronson.com/blog/?p=710 .
As a consumer, I do feel I'm seeing a net benefit without any price increases - or at least a benefit commensurate with the price increase. I watch one alternative streaming service for a while, then, when another that interests me more comes along, I switch to that one and cancel the old one. So the amount of content available to me is "eventually better" at a price that's currently pretty stable.

You're right, though, part of this is that I don't watch much TV in any form. It's probably less than 2 hours a week. So it really doesn't make much sense for me to subscribe to more than one service at a time. Not that that means we've canceled the Netflix subscription, but it's becoming a perennial discussion topic around our house of late.

Let me turn it around, on you, though: What makes you think that having a really good library of streaming content available on a single service at Netflix's prices is even financially tenable? The last time Netflix had a really great selection was when their prime service was still renting DVDs, so I certainly don't think they've been able to demonstrate that it's possible. And if they can't, who can? As more of a long tail consumer, the One Streaming Service to Rule Them All future looks pretty bleak to me - cheap, sure, but also crappy. You get what you pay for.

"company"

Also, extremely well.

After the MFJ in United States v. AT&T, several new long-distance carriers entered into the market using existing rights-of-way leading to an enormous decrease in long-distance telecomms costs. Several of these new long distance comapnies competed aggressively under the MFJ bidding to provide U.S. government telecommunications services ranging from data networks (notably several generations of NSFNET backbone services, network access point Internet exchanges, and numerous research networks). The loss of the monopoly right to carry international traffic dropped the price of a circuit between the USA and a foreign country through the floor, such that the U.S. grew into the center of the hub-and-spoke model of the global Internet, which still brings benefits to the USA. The loss of the monopoly access to local circuits lead to a proliferation of specialized carriers targetting radio and television distribution.

The regional Bell operating companies were forbidden to insist on being the sole supplier of end-user telecommunications equipment ranging from telephones to answering machines to modems (both for computers and for fax machines). The end of the equipment monopoly led to an explosion of innovation in data telecomms equipment.

The regional bell operating companies still faced no direct competition for most of their services, and while the consumer costs of long distance fell through the floor, the consumer costs of local connectivity rose. With this cash flow the RBOCs have been re-consolidating, and this has markedly eroded the advantages the U.S. telecomms market had as other large economies have terminated the incumbent monopolies in their markets; with the evolution of the almost-a-duopoly market and predictable attempts to consolidate all the local carriage options in many markets in the U.S., it is likely that U.S. telecomms users will face ever-increasing fees for far-from-globally-competitive levels of service. It's a brake being put on the whole U.S. economy for the benefit of the parties with direct interests in the former monopoly's descendants.

> Google and Facebook would consider relocation to another country

I doubt either would ever abandon the U.S. market entirely. On the other hand, I'm sure that the telecomms monopolists would very much like to extend their local telecommunications monopolies (especially with the demise of network neutrality) into advertising and other areas where they are not serious market players. Using their captured pet regulator, the FCC, to help them achieve that is a pretty obvious goal.
