I agree. Someone making $240,000 per year makes consumer choices every hour that half or more of Americans cannot fathom. And likewise, someone making $25k/year is making completely different choices. From what I understand, a large portion of both considers themselves middle class.

"Middle Class" is the taxonomic equivalent to silly putty. It can be stretched any which way. We need it to be so to deal with the vast inequalities of our society.

I don't know if China's advanced, but I do know if you're making electronics, you want to be in China. Everything I order comes with about a month lead-time from Shanghai. They've also started making some really good electronics. Rapid prototyping is really important, and I think becoming more important all the time, since robotics is becoming both cheaper and better.

I haven't heard of anything 'pure tech', but there's a big network effect to having the world's electronics industry on your doorstep. If you're building a microscope, you don't have to wait for months for the parts to arrive. If you're building a new kind of centrifuge, you have a massive pool of great engineers who can do it for you, just a phonecall away.
Are you sure you're actually clicking the images first, so they're brought up in the image viewer box with the other options available, and then right-clicking -> View Image/Open Image/whatever?

If you are, then that's very strange, and I have no idea why that's happening for you and not for anybody else. What browser and OS are you using?
One look out the window at a landscaper with brown skin should disabuse anyone that that works in an air conditioned office that luck isn’t a huge factor in success.

I worked on a farm, construction, worked in lumber mill, and had jobs through school as well but I have no doubt that I won the “ovarian lottery”. As a side effect, I’m not in a hurry to “pull the ladder up behind me” because my hard work somehow makes me more worthy than all the other people who worked even harder but weren’t as lucky.

And I'd also add that there are others that come into play...

* Elucidating function by identifying similarity to other known structures

* Finding novel signaling mechanisms (see work on PHinder)

* Modeling co-receptor/ligand dynamics

* Identifying function of orphan receptors

* Working with ancestral genes by identifying descendant structure

* Classifying and clustering proteins based on solved structure

* Learning new biochemical mechanisms through active vs inactive state structures

...
This says it quite well.

I'd just add that frequently someone will mention something, anywhere from some open-source project to some deep area of science, and the author mentioned, (who is already a member!) chimes in with clarifications and further explanation. Wow.

So you discuss that a lot of people were luckier than you, which I have no doubt is true. But you don't discuss all the people even less lucky. A number that runs in the billions.

Neuroticism should be parsed as a reserved word. It is a technical term and his use of it is proper since he is quoting academia. The results of research are not stereotypes. That would be like saying that it is a stereotype to believe that people who smoke have a higher possibility of developing cancer.

It is not problematic to use the terminology of the field that you are citing. The problematic part is misrepresenting those words as judgements. That would be like firing our programmer for lazy-loading images because we can't tolerate laziness at our firm.

This especially happens for shrimp. In Thailand, farmers are lured in by high short term profits for farming shrimp, so they clear a lot of biodiverse mangrove swamp. When they realize that shrimp are a bitch to raise in densities that make it profitable, they end up selling the land to professional shrimp farmers, who grow the shrimp with lots of antibiotics and specialized shrimp feed.

After a while, the shrimp parasites and diseases are endemic to the land, so the pros just leave and find someplace else cheap to buy. Meanwhile, the land is ruined, as shrimp live in brackish water, the salted land is no good for agriculture, and it takes decades for the mangroves to grow back again.
> On the other hand, restaurants and chefs aren't taking requests for gluten-free food seriously, because there's a good chance it's just a fad dieter.

My experience has been the opposite. My wife is gluten-intolerant, and we find that most restaurants are knowledgeable and follow best practices. They have separate prep stations when feasible. They change gloves. Some even have separate menus. I don't know if ignoring a food allergy request is illegal in some jurisdictions, but doing so certainly leaves restaurants open to lawsuits.
I think you have a point, but I don't tend to think to consider the current state of all nation states and their dominant cultures as static. 1000 years from now, I imagine much will have changed. Which may or may not involve closed nations to address many of the same issues we in America face. I think we can see this in Europe now.

How did you finally get a correct diagnosis?

Kismet? Fate?

My ex was career military and I had the brilliant foresight to be a supportive wife and homemaker, allowing him to shine at work. This turned out to be critical to saving my life as his last 3 duty stations before we divorced were all special duty assignments, including his assignment to Travis Air Force Base as part of a tiny contingent of Army people stationed there.

Travis has a regional hospital serving military members from 8 states. It's longest hall is like a quarter mile long and it has its own dedicated gate on the base. It also is a teaching hospital that works closely with UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento 45 minutes away and I think has connections to stuff in San Francisco, where some of our (family) testing occurred.

I had already been very sick for some weeks before we moved to Travis. Just before Christmas, we moved from temporary quarters into an apartment. January 4th, 10 weeks of chronic sinusitis turned to pneumonia and I ended up bedridden until some time in April.

I had about 2 doctors visits a week during that time and they ran all kinds of tests. All but two tests came back negative. I was told I have a ragweed allergy and a genetic disorder.

Because I was in the SF Bay Area, where by all rights an infantryman would not have been stationed normally, there were like 3 hospitals in the area that dealt with this disorder. My official diagnosis was atypical cystic fibrosis based on sweat chloride results in a historic grey area. Had I been anywhere else in the world, I probably would have died, having never received a proper diagnosis.

Most doctors have heard of CF. They have not heard of atypical CF, which presents more mildly and is frequently misdiagnosed as asthma, a diagnosis I had at one time. I felt it was wrong, but it got me useful treatment, so I didn't argue it at the time.

I also did some of the following things which I list in hopes of answering what I assume is your real question of "Do you have any insights into what I can do to try to successfully get a proper diagnosis?":

I persisted in the face of a lot of nonsense from medical people.

I tried to put my emotional baggage down before appointments and keep focused on getting answers rather than venting my spleen at random doctors.

At some point, I wrote everything down. Printing this out and taking it to a doctor was a mistake because he did not have time to read it. That appointment did not go well. But getting it all straight in my own head and able to tick off some of the most important details in chronological order and in a nutshell proved very valuable.

I eventually did some of my own research online as well.
The point is, in case I'm not making it clear enough, that 'accident' is just another convenient excuse to trot out when caught doing something unsavory, tasteless, creepy or downright illegal.

FB has plenty of examples along those lines so I will no longer give them the benefit of the doubt on any claims like these. For that to work you have to have a documented track record of building trust rather than a documented track record of transgressions.
Instead of having a function that says whether one object is bigger than another, you could define an ordering by having a function that maps objects to say natural numbers or real numbers or some other object with a known good comparison, and then compare the mapped objects.

So instead of implementing f in f(a, b), you'd implement f in f(a) < f(b)

In Chicago, every underground station AND the tunnels connecting them have had LTE service since December 2015.

So we should all take a lesson from how people in the Bible belt treat those who are agnostic or atheist, right? <rolls eyes>

If the Valley is such a "liberal echo chamber", why is it that women, homosexual, transsexuals, etc. are the ones still receiving the death threats.

When I see rich, conservative, white men shivering in fear from getting death threats for expressing their religious or political beliefs, I'll worry about your "echo chamber" my precious fragile little snowflakes.
Yes it links them dynamically. Why is that a problem? How would that end in DLL Hell? (which is multiple versions of dlls around and different pieces of application using different versions at same time in same process and never being sure what is using what)
Gluten/wheat are used in a lot of foods. Peanuts and dairy? Not so much. I continue to be amazed at how many food items contain wheat.

I can think of a few reasons:

1. If I need great graphics or better access to the phone's hardware, a native app is still your best bet. If you need better access to hardware, you may find some luck in the Phonegap/Cordova ecosystem but your mileage may vary.

2. If I had a key, extremely helpful investor who badly wanted an iPhone app in her portfolio, I would be very tempted to build one.

3. If my business model required an app, I would definitely build native. As an example, if my app relied on notifications, access to locations, etc I'd have more luck getting these permissions with an app.
I think it is an unsettling reaction to have your predominant thought upon seeing a woman or non white male in a position of authority to assume it is because of their gender or race. I find it hard to believe you are not able to find other logical reasons for ot, so it sounds like a choice youve made to view the world through that lense.
> What we can do, and often do is to reduce the practical problems of working on these systems by lifting subsets of problems out of general purpose languages and into much weaker special purpose environments.

A language that has no variables, no loops and no subroutines (and no regexps) is as far as you can go while remaining feasibly verifiable. There aren't many other options. What portion of our applications can be written in such languages? That people add extensions to Sieve only shows that its trusted portion isn't widely-enough useful even for the task of filtering email.

It's not a question of general-purpose vs. DSL. Regardless of what the language is for, with no loop, subroutines and variables there is very little you can do.

> I've repeatedly pointed out that the entire goal of these languages is to prevent* general reasoning. That is a feature, not a flaw.

It's not important, but that's not what I meant by general reasoning or arbitrary computation. What I meant is that no matter the language you give me (assuming it's useful enough etc.), answering arbitrary questions about arbitrary programs in that language is not feasible. For example, regular expressions do not allow "arbitrary computation" in the Turing completeness sense, yet it is infeasible to feasibly answer arbitrary questions about arbitrary regular expressions, such as the question "are two regular expressions equivalent?" This is a very important question about regular expressions, but it cannot be feasibly answered for arbitrary regular expressions.
> Also beautiful how web.archive.org provided one of the key bits of information, I suspect that in the longer term it will be as important as WikiPedia.

Ironically, the platform that the OP post itself has been published on results in a blank page when I submit it to web.archive.org and to archive.is.

OP if you are here, could you please repost your post elsewhere as well such as for example medium.com and respond with a link to it to me here so we (the users of HN - just to clarify that I have no affiliation with either of said archival services, I am just a regular user that submit URLs to them) can archive your post. It was an interesting post and I would like for it to be available in 1, 2, 5, 10 years.
> is it absurd to claim that the NRA's refusal to compromise re assault weapons has led to the death of many kids in American schools?

Honestly I think it is, although if I were having a discussion with a coworker I would couch it in slightly different terms, because many of my coworkers aren't very familiar with guns. e.g. defining assault weapons (varies depending on locale), asking why they are concerned about this like bayonet lugs, are they aware of anyone who has been killed by a bayonet charge in the US since the Civil War, what's wrong with barrel shrouds, etc

The unfortunate thing is that to get complete data, you'd need full web cam coverage of your home in order to catch all instances of your cat sleeping over 24 hours. Otherwise your data risks being incomplete, or worse, skewed. The level of rigor required necessitates that only the most dedicated cat owners can study this phenomena.

I find this new conservative victimhood mentality absolutely fascinating. I know someone who is a self described conservative who thinks he's being persecuted by society because of, of all things, having children. Not a ton of children, mind you, and not ones he can't afford, and not out of wedlock.

Having children is literally the most socially acceptable thing you can do amongst almost all political ideologies. Its incredibly common and parents are held up on a pedestal just for existing.

But he thinks the liberal elites are somehow out to get him for being a parent and he's a persecuted minority. He's said "liking being a parent is such an unpopular opinion."

He has a million other benign things he thinks he's being persecuted for but the kids thing is just the most bizarre and totally detached from reality.

It's like, you'd have to totally ignore reality to have this viewpoint... At the same time it seems like a really sad life.

I wonder if they actually believe this shit or it's just a means to an end.
Curious: I just got a series 3 last week and use it as my sole phone (hate smartphone form factor, flip phone user since forever). All I use it for is heart rate, phone, messaging, and music (very happy with it).

I've had to charge my series 3 every night. I guess not having it paired with a phone somehow uses more battery power? Technically, I reset my wife's phone with my sim+apple id, paired, reset back to wife's backup and sim. So it has no real phone to pair with, though I guess maybe that causes it to use cellular a lot more than most.

There might be other logical reasons that they are in power, but even knowing that affirmative action made their sex or race a factor and that my biology would work against me if I were to apply for their position is enough to make me jealous and bitter about it. I think affirmative action sows divides because of it, and is probably counterproductive nowadays.

If discrimination based on race or sex is bad, then why is affirmative action good?
Is that true? Azul's similar GC was designed for large heaps, but it worked well with smaller heaps as well AFAIK.
