I don't know, it's all the obvious techniques you'd imagine in lieu of furniture. Whatever is comfortable and practical. The orientations vary, constantly, that's part of the value. When one position becomes tiresome, a reconfiguration occurs.

I'm not a good person to ask about time to adapt, I stopped sleeping in beds as a teen opting for the floor. So I was already pretty well acclimated by the time I decided to get rid of the rest.
Sorry it doesn’t work. The correct force angle is always directly inwards towards the center of the circle the craft is tracing, and that force would need to be 1 G. Think of it as swinging a ball on a string—the ball is the craft, and the force on the string is your thrust force.

If you can generate 1 G of force (which is far beyond the capabilities of an ion engine), you’d be better off accelerating directly toward your destination and doing the “flip and burn” half way.

Ultimately, gravity is a relatively small problem in terms of interstellar travel. It's an implementation detail, so to speak. The main problem is that there is no energy in space.
>… so doesn't have access to it many requests the browser will make outside of that scope.

You have access if you chose to modify/recompile the .cpp/.rs files that deal with sending requests that those higher level functions use, this is what I do.

Some particular places of interest on /mozilla-central/:

- /servo/components/style/gecko/urls.rs, will pertain to calls called from css image functions

- /netwerk/protocol/http/nsHttpHandler.cpp, some classess that deal with handling things related to sending all http requests

If I'm reading this right, this just means if your car is older you have to get it inspected.

I somehow doubt that classic cars (Mustang, Camaro, Corvette, 510) are banned anywhere in the country - they might have to meet more stringent tests.
This is definitely one of those "if you squint at it, it could be racist" borderline comments. I feel that the problem with these comments is that it normalizes the acceptance of alienness as untrustworthy. That may have been true in society a long time ago, but with a global economy, this is a dangerous thought. It also has effects outside of commerce, such as marginalizing people with hard to pronounce or funny looking names. It's a subtle effect that may not have much impact in individual instances, but in aggregate can be very strong.
Are there the same problems with counterfeiting in their grocery department? How can you be sure that your organic flour, almonds and coffee or are really what they claim and not some relabelled non-organic GMO product?
>Why does everyone think that politicians are clueless numpties when they're deciding what to tax, but omniscient geniuses whenever they're deciding what to subsidise?

I don't agree that everyone thinks that way. Most people like me are wary of both taxation and subsidies. IMHO there shouldn't be any subsidies on food for the same reason. We don't know enough about food to make smart decisions.

So I'm all for a complete cut of subsidies. But not for taxation to control buying behavior.
I love the plug and play nature of Firebase for simple CRUD apps, so the simplicity of Firebase user auth was a huge win. Is that on the roadmap?

The ISS weighs 440t and to get 1g there by acceleration you'd need to constantly apply a force of ~4.4MN (meganewton), that's a tenth of a Saturn 5 at lift-off.

Not sure we can do that for an extended amount of time (read: a few hours) without bringing along lots of fuel

That or we invent that special drive of that dead Martian.

This is the correct answer. I saw it first hand how PM and engineers don't care about the product, they just care about their careers and company internal metrics.
All those five company cofounders depended for their success on algorithms orginated by the likes of Donald Knuth, who is as hardworking and probably smarter than them, but they are exponentially richer
Burning Out: What Really Happens Inside a Crematorium
Thanks for this. I've been looking for something like this for ages. I used to use VM's for this but it was a right pain.

As an aside I used this guide having discovered it a couple of years ago. I can't remember how but I ended up on a site that had been hacked, might have been following a link from a forum, and the page I was looking for wasn't there. Instead there was a link on the page saying it had been moved. I stupidly clicked the link and off I went to a random site that I can only assume was meant to drop some form of malware or take control on my browser. Anyway all I was left with was a message congratulating me on how secure my browser was, I didn't stay around.
> With sugar it seems to be a clear cut case by now.

I'm not sure. It was quite recently, in 2014-2015, that Coca-Cola spent millions on the Global Energy Balance Network convincing people sugar isn't bad and doesn't cause obesity. There is so much money at stake I'm convinced we will never have 100% objective scientific research here.
Just in case you're serious, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination#Economics .

> In 2014, the Israeli facilities of Hadera, Palmahim, Ashkelon, and Sorek were desalinizing water for less than US$0.40 per cubic meter. As of 2006, Singapore was desalinating water for US$0.49 per cubic meter.

Try drinking a thousand liters of water, and get back to me with how much you think it would be possible to spend this way before killing yourself through excessive water consumption.
Make tiny steps every day, eventually you will climb out of it. Remind yourself what the truth is all the time so your overwhelming feelings don't lead you to bad decisions.

Pay attention to how your mood and actions affects others negatively, use this to motivate yourself to do something, anything, to make permanent change in your life.

Many of us here have dealt with this, you are not alone. Resist the urge to feel bad for yourself, it's a vicious cycle. Find someone else to take care of or help, it will give you a little boost and remind you to not slip back into despair. And be careful about talking with others that are depressed about your experiences, as I felt like it was two drowning people holding onto eachother while they sank lower. (my personal experience, yours may vary if you are both fighting it together)

Find things to smile about, think about good things to look forward to, fight against this.
Exactly. SSH Connections are usually towards servers you have setup so verifying the keys is easy. Even then there is little concern since most of it happens in the local area network anyway.

For PGP/GPG I feel like that TOFU is what most people are doing anyways, this change will only formalize the 0.90-quantile behaviour.
I'm wondering if I've been depressed for too long for things to reach me.
I've bought that same book, probably after reading the same post about it, but I have at most read a few pages, and managed to meditate maybe a few times since then.

The world is complete information overload for me. I currently urgently need to:

1) learn a new language

2) practice meditation

3) learn react / unit testing / ML / distributed systems stuff

4) learn basic social skills

5) actually live life a little

6) ...

I say "currently", but this has been true for years.
Yeah, but that still is a tiny part of the overall economy. If you don't target those small niches, it makes no economic sense to get profiled on Indie Hackers et.al.
Yes Branston is tax-dodging scum like the rest of them. If Fred The Shred got his knighthood revoked then so should he.

It’s unclear where the gulf is between people who just book an Uber to go to the doctor (which seems to be all this is, just arranged by the provider themselves instead) and services that have trained professionals transporting people.

Oh, wow! This is crazy!
It's interesting you say this, as that's pretty much exactly how Lightsail (Amazon's easy-mode VM thing) works by default. Public IP, ports 22 and 80 open. I'm guessing for a good chunk of users, that default config is all they need.

Well, obviously yes.

The CA/B mailing list can't do much about shady behaviour they don't know anything about.

I do trust in Mozilla to ensure that the game rules for CAs are strict enough that my trust in the green lock isn't 0. It's not 100% either but it's above 50%. When I connect to a website and it has SSL, I'm fairly certain it's the right place.

Most likely there will never be a replacement for it, any PKI requires some third party to vouch for an endpoint otherwise you get easy MitM (I believe there is a proof floating around somewhere from the area of Signal Theory).
I learned cursive too, but it's still much slower to read than plain old 'normal' lettering. I assume the author would be able to read it just fine. It is gorgeous though.
TomTom | Harsum/Hanover (Germany) | Onsite | Visa & Relocation

Want to build the Navigation Map Standard used by millions of (autonomous driving) cars in the future?

Are you the Java Engineer to build the Navigation Map Standard for the future? TomTom’s Navigation Data Standards (NDS) is a continuously evolving map format which allows for universally applicable navigation maps. In Harsum we are building the solution which allows TomTom to stream the updated maps in real-time to our customers. Our customers are car manufacturers, mobile phone manufactures and navigation solution providers. As we are moving towards autonomously driving cars, the map complexity, and with that the Navigation Data Standard, keeps on evolving.

Stack: Java, Linux, SQLite, Jenkins, Junit.

Hard to have an opinion without knowing the details but from my little experience I feel like the reason why these big project fail is not so much because they are too complex, I am sure a good (not excellent) developper could come up with an algorithm and data structure generic enough to accomodate all corner cases. But because these big projects start from a preexisting solution (PeopleSoft in this case), that wasn’t designed for this particular complexity, so it requires orders more energy to go around its limitations, and the people staffed by the likes of IBM on these projects are usually project managers with little to no programming skills and little domain knowledge. So you end up with a disaster for things that aren’t that complicated (custom shifts for coast guards and prison guards doesn’t look like a hard computer science problem).

That makes a lot of sense. The medical providers just need the patient to show up to bill insurance. What does it matter to pay $10, or $20 if you’re bringing a patient in for a $700 service. Not only do you lose the $700 in revenue the utilization of your capital assets decreases (wasted time) which means your fixed costs (rent, debt, fixed payroll, medical equipment, etc) are spread across fewer appointments meaning your net margins are shrinking and you’re either becoming less profitable or raising your prices. Some people may think this is wasteful but I can see how there might be a positive ROI on offering Uber rides if it really makes a difference in getting patients to show up on time.
Principal Software Engineer: I write ridiculous amounts of code, and I lead teams with an emphasis of building up people.
