In my experience* the genuine inquiry is vocalized sightly differently from the throw-away getting, but they definitely both exist. You'll get an odd look giving a genuine answer to the greeting and incredulity or even be considered rude if you answer the inquiry dismissively.

Interpersonal communication is fraught with opportunities for misunderstanding at the best of times.

I take biocurcumax. Curcumin with bioperine is also good - i wouldn't take theracurmin, though. Afaik, it has lots of downstream curcumin metabolites, and they aren't anti-inflammatory/abeta-binding.
Hi, the careers page only lists an engineering posting for a full-stack?
Yes, that's how Amazon creates lock-in. But it depends what you're doing with it right? If you are looking to run code based on a SQS event, yes you have to use a Lambda. If you are looking to execute code when something visits a URL you have more options.
'Smiling' with no reason is a sign of stupidity.This should be 'laugther'. Also, the same goes for hugs. I can never get used to why Americans want to hug strangers, especially men.
Thank you, yes, it's been corrected---"visibility" serves the purpose I intended.
To clarify, there are many places where the boosters could have been manufactured and transported by ship. The shuttle SRB's where manufactured in Utah, where transportation by ship is impractical.
There are plenty of employers out there who don't expect or demand "passion" from their employees - especially outside the startup bubble. Look for established businesses whose core isn't tech.

Brodkin's article takes the relevant "promise" quite out of context: https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.191339/... (see page 1).

The full quotation is:

> As to its price-increase theory, the government itself conceded that the merger would cause prices to go down for millions of AT&T customers nationwide. The government’s own “bargaining model” likewise showed a price decrease for all consumers, once the correct data were employed. And the government’s own economic expert effectively repudiated its other two theories of likely harm. The government, in short, gave the Court no basis for finding that this merger is likely to reduce competition at all, much less substantially. Rather, the evidence overwhelmingly showed that this merger is likely to enhance competition substantially, because it will enable the merged company to reduce prices, offer innovative video products, and compete more effectively against the increasingly powerful, vertically integrated “FAANG” companies.

The brief was addressing the predictions of the economic model the DOJ offered in opposing the merger. Nowhere did AT&T, as Brodkin misleadingly suggests, "promise" to "lower prices" (or that no specific rate would never go up). Of course, that all makes sense. AT&T had no reason to make such promises. In blocking a merger, the burden of proof is on the DOJ. They have to show consumer harm; the merger company has no burden to show consumer benefits. Why would AT&T go out on a limb and make promises it has no reason to make?

Moreover, the brief addresses the government's arguments for blocking AT&T's merger with Time Warner, which has nothing to do with the price of DirecTV:

> The government’s central prediction of harm rests on the premise that AT&T would use Time Warner’s Turner content as a “weapon” against rival distributors by threatening to withhold it during bargaining, thereby forcing them to pay higher prices.

The subject of the briefing was prices for content distribution. Prices for DirecTV--what Brodkin points to--have nothing to do with that.
Yes but the sign in stuff is within your control too. Simply logout or delete the cookies, and don't use sign in with facebook. Simply having a facebook account (even under a pseudonym), doesn't mean you have to start using login with facebook. I try to use Facebook in the most minimal way possible—I have an account and can message people, but I don't use it for anything that I don't need it for. I try to ensure I get more out of it than it does from me. I don't voluntarily fill out my profile with more information than necessary.
> It's to let themselves move off GitHub.

It's more than that. GitLab raised the bar here. Being able to run GitLab CE internally has de-risked the decision to test internally. For the next wave of customers in the space, familiarity with GitHub open source isn't enough.
Like every engineering decision it is a risk/reward spectrum. But unless you have profiled to know that net/http is your bottleneck, no, you should almost certainly not use fasthttp.
It takes someone who loves the outdoors to appreciate it.
This is how lots of new science is discovered. One example is the Theory of Relativity. Sure it was not a software simulation per se but it was still simulated on paper. It was not confirmed by experiment until several years latter.
Apologies, I meant I was guessing the original poster used "unthinkable" where they meant "unfundable." And even there, I was expecting it to mean "largely unfundable." With little in the way of results elsewhere, it is hard to justify large spending elsewhere.

PSA: nominating yourself in threads like this is pretty tactless.
Yes. That's what I meant, but also I don't think that's a bad thing. Building software is hard and expensive. I think is valid to only open source certain parts of your system and reserve the right to monetize other parts and features.
Curcumin won't clear out all abeta. Just bind to some and clear it. It also dampens anti-inflammatory pathways (e.g., mild inhibitor of TNF-alpha production).
I see the cost-benefit being overall positive for medium-dose curcumin (like 500mg-1g/day).

Yeah, it's almost surely a case of remembering the handful of times when the clocks were inaccurate because they caused you trouble, while forgetting the hundreds of times when they worked correctly. They do work correctly most of the time, and the A division works even better than the B division, as you'd expect. (the opposite of what OP claimed.)

I guess it depends on your definition of rich, a married couple is allowed up to half a million dollars in 15% capital gains. Not exactly “middle class.”

If you and your wife took $1 million in cap gains every year you’d still only be paying 17.5% tax. Again, not exactly middle class.

Also, we have no inheritance tax up to $10 million dollars. The idea that even a sizable minority of rich people are “hiding” their money abroad is not true. Especially with FATCA.
Given the vulnerabilities that have been recently announced for LTE, it seems to me that your #2 is much more likely. Anyone with a Software Defined Radio and the right code could run their own Stingray.

Circumstantial evidence of recent reports of massive increases in suspicious activities would seem to indicate that this is actually happening.

AT&T bought assets with that money. They're receiving income that in theory should be offsetting what they spent. It's not like they bought a car and a nice dinner. The money isn't gone.

Good summary, but i don't agree with your analysis. The end-game will be early diagnosis of abeta over-production, IMO. You will then treat that and you won't get alzheimers. Few will transition to Tau degeneration, and it's so much harder to fix. I don't think pharma will go big on Tau like they have with abeta. The blood tests for over-production of abeta are almost here - I expect them to be routine every few years for people over 50.

The proverb is not far from English "Ignorance is bliss" it says that one who is happy without reason might be just stupid. TFA is actually talking about how Americans are trying to seem happy with their smiles so this proverb is appropriate here in my view. As for the literal interpretation of proverbs in general and this one in particular: nobody needs a proverb for "if you are laughing like a maniac for no reason then there might be something wrong with you".

With nanopore experiments, it's not unusual to see unusual behavior that could possibly be explained by macromolecule interactions, contamination, or electrical interference. There are often more unknowns than knowns due to the scale of the system, novel materials, measurement precision, unique physics, etc etc... What usually happens is the undesired measurement gets filed away for 'later study'. Unless you have some theoretical framework or model that explains it, you may never go back. So probably the experimental part was previously dismissed as an error or contamination, but now it is interesting because there is an explanation
Sorry if I come across like a jerk, but is that really true, though?

Can you point me to some lisp code that's completely bonkers and which most people are incapable of understanding?

When you keep rewarding people for becoming injured, they self-modify to become injured more easily. Once this fragility is enacted, it is difficult to reverse, because there is an enormous amount of perceived harm associated with not prioritizing their concerns. This eclipses the actual harm done in general, creating a negative utility monster.

I think he is actually trying to explain what most of us know as superficiality or dishonesty, but because he fails to recognize it as such, he came up with this disgusting theory. Or maybe it’s just manipulative.

For anyone having their mind blown by his claim, one way to develop a better understanding of the many nuances of experience, motivation and intention, reading history makes it surprisingly accessible. You will find bits of your experiences in the struggles of past lives, but entirely reconfigured! It’s important to realize because it grants humility and exposes value of too easily making judgements of others.
I was expecting an article about the most dangerous chemical form of plumbum...
It's commonly used that way, but it's a slightly informal use: being rigorous, "strict" and "non-strict" describe semantic models; whereas "eager" and "lazy" describe evaluation strategies with those semantics. Ie, eager evaluation leads to strict semantics, and lazy evaluation to non-strict semantics.
It is also almost always bad for shareholders when companies are merged.

Let's say there are two competing companies, I could myself as an investor chose where to put my money, in one or the other or both. When they merge I lose the ability to place my money how I see fit.

As my professor/dean in financial economics said: If you get to vote on a merger, always vote no!
And if the politicians didn't vote to build the SRBs in Utah, then maybe there would be no SRB at all, which is a good method to prevent deaths from SRBs.

Hello. tbh, We’re Moving On

Start from the projects you are using. You might find that many of them are primarily one-man efforts and could use some support.

For example, we use verdaccio (https://www.verdaccio.org/) as a private NPM server. IT was so mindblowingly simple to get a private server working that, when the opportunity presented itself, we felt compelled to donate: https://opencollective.com/verdaccio

In this case, it seems that there was an older abandoned effort (sinopia) and the original developer Alex Kocharin (https://github.com/rlidwka) stopped. Juan Picado (https://github.com/juanpicado) picked up the mantle and given how NPM is moving fast and breaking things it's great to see someone is keeping up with the open source solution.
CloudWatch is definitely a write optimised product. Any kind of reading or searching is pretty terrible.

I’m sure AWS would recommend you use Kinesis Firehose or something to put in ElasticSearch and use Kibana or something. But I would be great to have an equally scalable log parser/searcher.

> If she answered honestly (“I’m tired”), which is what felt most natural, she worried she’d come off as rude.

I'm not understanding the word "natural" here. Would her honesty be given in a spirit of satire, confusion, fear, something else?

For example, suppose in response to her saying, "I'm tired," I replied, "Now that we've established your propensity for reflexive honesty in response to unexpected questions, what is your bank account and routing number?"

Would she take the joke in a spirit of playfulness, or alarm?

Edit: clarification

Other, more traditional careers place a bigger emphasis on grades as a matter of course. I don't think one just reduce it down to number of variables held in one's head whilst contemplating. All a high GPA should tell you is that the person successfully input things that the academic system accepted as an 'A', or whatever the score might be.

Good grades can be proxy for all those things you describe, and they can also be proxy for corner-cutting, systems-gaming, cheating, laziness, and other chicanery. I graduated sub-3.0 and, at least in my suburban, not-top-tier city environment, I seem to run circles around most of the technology-practicing clowns 'round here -- and it seems their muggle-ness transcends particular bands of GPA scores.

An "A" tells me you're either a cheater, a systems-gamer, or a schmuck.

Everyone is ultimately proprietary even in the Open Source world. Once you invest heavily in any sort of architecture or platform, you’re not moving anywhere with your current investment.

I’ve argued this point repeatedly in real life and on HN. The people who don’t want to use any of AWSs proprietary infrastructure or developers who want to use the repository pattern for the sole purpose of “not locking themselves” into one vendor.

I’ve never in 20+ years seen a major organization switch from a well known vendor to save a few dollars. Even if you theoretically can change your infrastructure, the risks and the amount of regression testing you have to do hardly ever makes it worthwhile to switch infrastructure.

As far as open source coming to the rescue, if someone else doesn’t takeover an open source project, more than likely, your company won’t either.
