Not really. Pulitzer is for one piece of good work. Bill Gates proved a pancake theorem in college. Many Thiel fellows are under 21 doing award winning work in sciences. Jacob Lurie won the Westinghouse/Intel talent search in high school with professional quality mathematician work.

Lots college kids win startup hackathon awards, akin to the Pulitzer.
The Pulitzer doesn't honor the best work or the greatest achievements, just a sampling of great work.
It's not just having "stuff". Without money, you have no food, no shelter. It's a very effective form of coercion: do this thing you would otherwise never do, or you and your family will starve.

Here are some points:

- It's much, much, easier to coerce someone into doing something they don't want to do when it's a legal option than when it's illegal in all circumstances.

- People in desperate situations are among the least likely to make their decisions rationally, so they might take the option even if they would have found a better one otherwise.

- It lowers the threshold of how bad things can get. Right now, if you have no money, you're in a shitty situation. With that "option", I expect a common outcome is that you take it, have a bunch of health complications and/or die, don't get compensated very well (there's a large supply of poor people like you and you're desperate, so your bargaining position is weak), and end up in an even worse situation.

- Nobody said "instead of", but there is a limited amount of attention and resources directed at getting better laws passed, and this one is extremely far down on my list of priorities.
Come to the Czech Republic, there is a huge abundance of offers. My company would hire you immediately, for example.
Just to be clear, I was and am talking about the actual thugs who attacked you, not the train attendants or Amtrak etc.

I generally try to understand people's motivations, analyze in terms of what larger systemic failings led them on a path etc. But when your job is to directly terrorize and rob people for a mere paycheck, I think one's Nuremberg defense has gone out the window.

And there most certainly are people who "envy" these thugs, hopped up on the same propaganda that preaches their entire regime as being for the greater good. Sure, we can describe this as mental illness and hope to heal their brain damage - and I look forward to us ever having the luxury of being in that position.

Which was really the crux of my quip. If we could count on actual justice - eg these criminals being shunned from society and going to prison for armed assault - then we wouldn't have to substitute idyllic placeholders like my hoping they'll somehow eventually come by vigilante justice. I'd say that you're even doing something similar in your own framework, asserting that they must be suffering a "terrible spiritual toll".

Alas, all we can do for now is cope.
Awards could be made to matter, I suppose, but if they are simply a matter of culture war signaling I'm not inclined to take them very seriously.
However apparently the use of solvents negates any effect from atmospheric smoke so it appears to be an embalming element.
I worry that many of these well meaning deregulations may not scale indefinitely, both as the company grows and the working population evolves. I understand the premise, but many of the processes and red tape, while admittedly frustrating, probably did not arise out of desire for limitation.

You have to put a lot of faith into your workforce to allow so much freedom in their operation.
Yes, and this is important to understand about Facebook. Let's say for the sake of argument (and I don't really think it will pan out, but let's pretend for a sec) that Facebook takes a serious hit from the Cambridge Analytica fallout and the company is weakened considerably. Well, they're shown before that they can spin off a new "communications product" under a new name and effectively shed a lot of the ill will surrounding the parent company, but still leverage the massive benefits of their cash reserve and talent.
After i got my bachelor degree, I went back and done two other courses cloud computing and android development, then ended up in technical support, since i am no longer with that company I wanted to get into development, since that is what my degree was in.

Of course a black hole’s temperature is inversely proportional to its mass, so a tiny black hole would be terrifically hot. Ironically a much more massive black hole is undetectable unless it’s lensing something, or “feeding” on something. A small black hole would have a very high temperature just from Hawking radiation.
I used to think I had empathy. I mean, when I see someone being taken advantage of, I tear up immediately. Until one day my mentor straight up told me “you have no empathy.”

Which didn’t really bother me, since I’m pretty sure I’m not a sociopath. (Though that probably wouldn’t bother me either, by definition.)

Watching that video made me realize that what I usually feel is sympathy. I think I’ve been so fortunate (or complacent) that I can’t really say to someone “I’ve been there. I know how it feels.” I mean I have been sad and depressed and lonely, don’t get me wrong, but overall I’m like “holy shit why am I so lucky?”

Feelings are icky. If a close friend suffers a loss, I just want to do something practical. Help them move furniture, or babysit their kid or something. I don’t want to “get down to their level.”

So yeah. No empathy here.

They have to pay back the direct damages that they caused. They don't have to pay all of the damages resulting from the initial damage. If the money they took caused someone's car to be repossessed which caused them to lose their job, they don't have to pay for the lost income from the job.
Cool idea... but clicktraps that inhibit one's ability to back-navigate out of the site are not so cool.
Suggesting all boardgames are similar? Those are fighting words.

Personally, I write off Gloomhaven because it's a tactical miniatures game (something I've never cared for). There are other high ranked games, like Caverna, which I write off for similar reasons.
There are two pain points which I have experienced while using Docker.

Cons:

1. Disk usage
2. Permissions issues from volume mounts

Docker is really bad at garbage collection and it's not uncommon to have docker use more than 40GB of disk on my machine at any given time.

In development it's sometimes handy to have volume mounts for often changing files. This causes a lot of permissions issues with the containers. There's some support in native docker to handle this (--user) but this support isn't handled well by things like Docker Compose.

Pros:

1. Easy to develop with
2. Easy to version
3. Easy to deploy
4. Easy to migrate to another server

Gone are the days when you have to copy and paste the manual "apt-get install....." from readmes. Just install Docker, clone the monorepo, run "docker-compose up -d", and the entire development environment is now up and running. You can rollback your entire system to any point in time, build everything, and push it into production with amazing tooling around everything.

You also never have to worry about developing two services that are both networked that both want to use the same port. If I have Web Server A and Web Server B I can run them with all production-similar configs (80/443) in development all on my laptop.
Apple Battery Replacement Program for Non-Touch Bar 13-Inch MacBook Pro Models
Not OP but for me it's just a preference like a color scheme is to anybody else. It is visually appealing and helps to distinguish different aspects of some context specific things.

I get that it's not for everybody but being so against it is something I really do not understand.

Why use color schemes or different fonts at all then?

It depends what the outcome is without the surgery. If I'm dead without it, I want them to operate regardless. If there's only a chance of death, or the surgery is aiming to improve quality of life (rather than prevent [imminent] death), it's more of a judgement call.

I am not sure whether or not I want to agree with that, it sounds a bit like the claim that there are fields and not particles, just for single instead of many particle physics.
How to Protect Your Smartphone from Hackers – Expert
Yeah. Most scooters I see in SF are parked properly / out of the way. People do ride them on sidewalks, but again most people will slow down / walk them when things get too tight.

When there are plenty of tent cities and bike chop shops sitting in the middle of sidewalks at the same time, it’s hard to take any complaint about scooters seriously.
No, the Pulitzer prize was awarded to a team that included a rising masters student.
I don't see the issue. Nobody is forcing Fog Creek to make the glitch service free, that was their own choice - and as long as charging money for your glitch-based service isn't against the glitch ToS, there's no reason not to do so.

Glitch' FAQ says they expect to eventually charge for a premium account with fewer resource restrictions. Glitch' business model is presumably then to get other services off the ground, make those services big enough to start earning significant money, and then have those services upgrade to a paid plan once they (hopefully) both earn enough money to afford it and are big enough to need it.

From what I can see, this Writt thing is doing exactly what glitch's business model wants people to do.
Working at a (German) investment bank still using Java 6 and Perl 5 extensively in 2018, I can assure you it's not just retail banks. Legacy technology mires are everywhere in the enterprise world and often the premia to work in those places is precisely for dealing with this kind of old technology and decades of technical debt.

In any case the same bank with Blockchain and big data lakes will also be working with mainframes and COBOL, so generalisations about technology aren't particularly useful when it comes to organisations that are so large.
It’s not impossible, but we’d have no way of knowing because the result would be just another black hole. What I can say with some confidence is that unless some wildly unexpected physics emerges, there’s no way antimatter only occurred in dense clumps and collapsed before it could annihilate. So could there have been a freak occurrence yielding a black hole from a dense cloud of antimatter? Unlikely, yet possible, but it would still do nothing to explain why matter ended up dominating antimatter.
I did some interesting work, wound up on a recruiter's list somehow, and nobody cared about anything other than my code in my interviews. Which is pretty much the same way everyone else winds up there.

Bully Hunters anti-harassment campaign shuts down as criticism mounts – PC Gamer
My favorite book by the late Douglas Adams is "Last Chance to See," a nonfiction project where he travelled around the world for a year looking for various endangered species. The chapter about a fat sort of parrot called the kakapo talks about the challenges of keeping rats out — boats are not even allowed to dock on the New Zealand island where the last remaining kakapo live.

(I once emailed Adams asking when a paperback edition of this book would be made available; he replied three years later, saying that it was finally in print behind "the ugliest cover I've ever seen in my life." The contemporary cover is not quite so bad.)

Pretty good list of symptoms, side effects, phenomenon.

My assessment is somewhat more simple:

Scrum is a strategy to reach an unspecified goal thru incremental revelation. (1)

I'm old school. Raised on PMI and gantt charts. I prefer defined goals and critical paths. (2)

There was no report signed off by the CIA, DNI, and DHS that concluded with high confidence that the Iraq government had WMDs. The WMD intelligence, such as it was, came from raw reports pulled directly from the lower levels of the CIA bypassing the ordinary processes. The report on Russian hacking pulled from conclusions drawn by the entire US intelligence community.

Also, did you read the Mueller indictment of a dozen Russian hackers? It goes into some detail on the kinds of information that the IC has about it.

The thing is- the IC makes mistakes. But a single disaster of a conclusion like the WMD debacle cannot be used to discredit every single subsequent conclusion, otherwise we could never prosecute anyone on terror charges ever again. Pointing at the WMD fuckup and using that to disprove every conclusion you don't like means you aren't actually engaging in the substance. If tomorrow they conclude something you agree with and I don't, will you take me seriously when I say "but Iraq tho"? Probably not.
For improving work you're good at - maybe not showing off, maybe people just avoid complacency/shortcuts, double check everything if they know their work will be checked. Like the value of code reviews that don't find any bugs.

The thing is, once you put yourself in someone else's shoes it is that much harder to act in a way that is against that person's best interest. You would actually need to deliberately work against your emotions to harm someone once you have empathized with them. It's kind of forcing yourself to jump off a cliff. Sure, it's possible, but it doesn't come natural. So the two (empathize and doing good) aren't completely two different things.
Okay, but you have to divide by the entire cargo of the ship, which is quite enormous. So I still don't think it's something easy to estimate without doing the math.
It looks like your text about the battery options is repeated in the middle of the article.
This is why everyone in countries like France, Germany, Sweden, etc. is unemployed.
I'm not so sure. That might mean going with a surgeon where you are at the top end of their "risk profile", rather than a more skilled surgeon who has higher mortality rates due to routinely taking more difficult cases. I'm not sure you can generalise the mortality rate of all patients to your specific chance of death (a more skilled surgeon would likely be better for you, c.p.).
The Internet Oracle
As neat as this looks I wouldn't build a DIY electric skateboard for the same reason I wouldn't want to build software for an airplane.
the donor board section is just the battery section duplicated. you're also missing a really important piece (that I actually don't know anything about re li-po/li-on but do know something about re deep cycle lead-acid) which is the charge controller (i.e. the thing that prevents your battery from blowing up and maiming you).
I have been to many Ayahuasca ceremonies. As you stated, it helps break down the ego mind's control. It is definitely important that there is a shaman, and the best is to hear through word of mouth of someone having a positive experience with a particular shaman. The shaman holds the space during the ceremony, much like how a yoga instructor holds the space for a yoga class - there is variation based on what that instructor brings experience wise, their own energy, etc.

Re: Ego - Ego is a tool, however it often gets stuck on acting as a coping mechanism. If ego's stuck on then it causes other problems of the body/brain/mind. It should act like subpersonalities, where there is a time to be a caretaker, a perfectionist, etc - however it becomes a problem if a subpersonality becomes dominant, like it becomes a problem if ego becomes dominant.

I have been going through a difficult journey, as was unknown to me beforehand, it turns out that my ego helped protect me and allow me to function by separating me from feeling/reacting to pain from a childhood injury. This disconnect from pain, improper perception of pain, allowed me to injure myself throughout the rest of my life - and then I was gradually exposed to it more and more, until a point where my ego no longer had enough control to allow me to cope through all of the pain.

I have had success healing some of the injuries with stem cell injections, however have run into incompetence that's built into our health-"care" system. I'll be posting about it longer at some point, soon I imagine. I struggle a lot daily.
With large scale dams there is also huge environmental impacts and displacement of the local population. You have to form a sizeable reservoir lake etc. They also take considerable time to build.

I feel your pain on the disk usage, especially when rapidly making changes and building with `docker-compose up --build`. However `docker system prune` is your friend here.

It would be great if it were automated and a little smarter, it basically leaves no survivors, but for all the advantages of Docker this isn't so bad.

Very cool but the original board was never designed to go at such speeds. I suspect you'll ruin the wheels fairly quickly, not to mention you might lose control at high speed fairly fast. I'm not a skateboarder myself, but I've moded some bikes and adding speed is the easiest part, making it useful speed is way harder.

Also, I hope the engine can go in reverse or this guy has no breaking power; and as he gets comfortable riding it, sooner or later, a surprise will happen and he will have no choice but jump ship.
Scaling the Ramp Up–Avoiding the Startup Death Spiral
To emphasize the point: the Atlantic Ocean is roughly 3,000 miles from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean, or merely 2000 from Ireland to Newfoundland. Crossing the Atlantic means provisioning months of food and water, and being able to tackle navigation without any visible reference points. It also means being able to design ships that can handle stormy conditions, because you're likely to hit a storm in that time.

The first ships likely capable of making a crossing are the Chinese junks, followed by Polynesian outrigger canoes. The first European ships capable of making it are probably the Viking longships, which makes pre-Viking contact difficult to conceive, much less a sustained trading pattern. Furthermore, Phoenician ships were predominantly rowed, not sailed, which makes the journey especially hard to believe.
– Don’t use acronyms or nonsense words for objects, software or processes at Tesla.

I like to minimize use pronouns like "it" or "that" in a technical discussion.

Communication becomes so much clearer by expanding "it" into something more descriptive and explicit.

Also minimize number of words, and complexity of words.
Biophysics people use a digital equivalent to this. In in vitro DNA replication experiments, one of the building blocks of DNA is made to be fluorescent so as it is added to the long DNA chain being synthesised you can visually observe it's progress (under a fancy microscope). If you take a 1-pixel slice for each millisecond and stich them together you get a kind of graph of fluorescence extending in length over time. Some incredible insights into DNA replication have been made using this technique.

> I, as a non-Christian, might be skeptical of that, but believing it is part of the definition of Christian.

The Bible—specifically the Gospels
—contains some stories about what Jesus said and did, but much of the former is explicitly in parable. Ideas about what Jesus thought are largely inferences from that.

And any belief about the Bible other than that, understood correctly, it contains no moral error, is neither part of the definition of Christianity, nor a universal doctrine within it (even among the official doctrines of the large subsets.)
It's a bit pedantic at the beginning, but when he defines it as "transgressiveness or willingness to transgress," it becomes much more clear. That's the trouble with great ideas in blogs. Here's the essence of it:

"If you tell people "the only way to contact me is to break a rule" you will only be contacted by rule-breakers.

But wait, it can get worse. If, despite telling everyone to use the departmental email address, Fred personally handles – expedites – the requests of people who email him at his personal email account, he is now rewarding those who transgress.

So far, I've been talking about being an asshole (or not) – that is, transgressiveness – as a fixed trait. But that's not how personality works, even assuming it is a personality trait. If it is a personality trait then it's more like a "set point" for something that varies with circumstances.

Which means if you reward it, you will get more of it."
That makes sense because of the "if I did it, you should be able to"-fallacy that fails to take into account that people are different, even coming from identical backgrounds.
> Nowadays, I'm usually making Doctors aware of advancements in their field... Scary stuff.

I don't find that to be too surprising. I can be hyper-aware of my own ailments, but keeping up with an entire field is more difficult. Furthermore, treating to research runs the risk of using treatments where the outcomes haven't been replicated, or there are long-term complications. Unless you've exhausted more conventional treatments/the treatment guidelines, there's something of an advantage of not being right at the bleeding edge.
