I'm not an expert on PCOS. I don't actually know the answer to that.

(Assuming you are looking for personal advice, which you may not be:)

I am someone who has pursued a lot of "alternative" health stuff. I had terrible PMS and awful, painful periods in my youth and I accidentally discovered that cleaning up my diet mitigated it. I wasn't trying to mitigate it. When my husband was given orders for a war zone on short notice and we did a lot of eating out and stuff and generally partied before he left, my symptoms came back. That proved to me how much of an effect diet can have.

If I had PCOS, I would start a food diary, especially get picky about meat and dairy products because those can contain animal hormones, research which plants also have hormonal impact (I believe soy can do so) etc.

Diet would be the first thing I would work on and see how much it does. There is really a lot of info out there and if your goal is to alleviate your own symptoms and that's all you care about and you don't care what other people think, there are quite a lot of people getting remarkable results for various health issues by doing their own research, keeping their own records and so forth. It only is problematic if you then try to argue it in a forum. ;)

I would also join a chelation group. My recollection is metal poisoning interferes with hormonal stuff as well.

I would also look for literature from other countries. At one time, I had a book about women's health written by a woman who, IIRC, had fibroids and had lived in both France and America. Treatment options in France were vastly different from the US and she preferred how they handled it. They were willing to surgically remove fibroids in France, even quite large ones, where in the US they basically tell you to suffer or get a hysterectomy. (Again: IIRC.)
What was wrong with my comment? It's valid criticism of HN readers; it's perfectly substantive.
Somehow they always walk out unscathed. Despite large swathes of SF being ultra rich housing only.
It's called agree of misinformation because it's become increasingly easy to produce convincing fake footage.

It's entirely possible to fake a real-time video interview for instance using voice synthesis and mapping the face of your target upon your face. It's frighteningly convincing.

No, they actually use 802.1x to authenticate the connection. 802.1x doesn't actually protect or authenticate any of the data though, it just ensures that there's a valid supplicant somewhere on the other end of a port before it forwards traffic.
This is what I saw when I randomly dropped the yellow man into the middle of Boulder, CO: https://goo.gl/maps/A9oKpnFQLpR2

Boulder has a city population of about 100,000 and a metro region population of about 300,000. Here are some random Street View locations from European towns and cities of a roughly similar size.

Reading, England: https://goo.gl/maps/yQaTTaWQJav

Click around a bit, explore the neighbourhood, get a sense for the place. Get the picture?

American urban development happens on a scale that is simply incomprehensible to most Europeans. I spent a good ten minutes clicking around Boulder, looking for the city centre; it took me that long to realise that there wasn't one, at least not in the sense that I understand.

> It's not like the typical driver's ed is some expensive defensive driving course taught by an ex race car driver.

This is a common misunderstanding of what is really needed in driver education to improve the average driver. The average American driver really lacks a lot of skills and a clear understanding of optimal driving behavior. Driving on public roads should be optimized for safety, but most drive as if it ought to be optimized for speed.

It would be a good improvement if all drivers were required to take a Smith system or similar defensive driving course annually in order to retain their license.
It hurts society, but when the damage is spread out over tens of thousands of citizens, it can take a lot of effort to distract them from their day of work and taking care of kids to come together and decide to raise enough money to purchase the empty land and turn it into a park or something the community can use like dense living and services people want.

Just because something exists doesn't mean the market is working. Central Park doesn't exist because it was "economically viable", some things are difficult to put in monetary terms and especially when it requires voters to get together to come to a concensus.

The empty mall lot owner can probably keep re-financing the land and using it as a piggy bank since property values are on a tear in the Valley...what do they care how little value it provides to nearby and prospective residents.
Ok, nice to hear that. It seems that you've put some thoughts in it. Mail is very easy to mess up, so I wish you all good luck!
Right but the whole point of Meltdown (not Sprectre) is that this doesn’t matter.
Looks like something I should know about. Bought the book.
NASA Commercial Crew Program: Plan Needed to Ensure Uninterrupted Access to ISS
No!

The raise of the sea level is not caused by the rain. It is caused by the melting of the ice in Antarctica and Greenland, and small contribution of the expansion of the sea water because it is hotter. Anyway, the current rise is only a few millimeter.

All the rain (and snow) eventually goes to the sea (unless it gets frozen in a glacier) so it doesn't matter if it rains here or there, that doesn't change the sea level.

And remember that there is not a fixed amount of rain, some years there is more global rain, and some years there is less global rain. Essentially, to get rain you need that a big chunk of hot wet air collides with a big chunk of cold air, so the humidity is transformed into clouds and later into rain (and there are more problems, like cloud condensation nuclei, it's not so easy ...) But anyway, how much total rain depends a lot of the circulation details, because humidity my survive in the air for shorter or longer periods of time.

Probably you are cherrypicking some place with drains, but there are other places with more rain and floods. Some of these are normal and caused by the usual random fluctuations of the weather, and others can have a bigger probability due to climate change. It's very difficult to classify them as "normal" or "man-made".
> If you can speak to me one on one and tell me why I should vote for you, and you convince me - then you deserve my vote. Microtargeting allows you to do that at scale.

The endgame of this notion is politicians promising each constituent exactly what they want to hear and concealing what they don't.
Absolutely, arsenic-containing materials have the potential to be extremely dangerous. Unscrupulous GaAs manufacturers have put their employees at risk in the past.

What do you call Germany? Germany, or Deutschland? Why is the one you use more correct than the other?
This looks useful for the purposes of describing areas in detail but setting an event usually doesn't require more than a couple pins to show where it takes place.

I will keep this handy for any future geomapping projects I work on (which sounds like a possibility given that this was interesting to work with)

Heat sinks and pipes don't matter all that much since you can simply increase the area to achieve higher conduction. The bottleneck is getting it from small chip hotspots to the heat spreader on top of the chip. So this would sit as a layer directly on top of the chip beneath the more conventional heat spreader.
Also satellite dishes point roughly south if you're in the northern hemisphere. (They point towards geostationary satellites which have to be over the equator.) This is a more useful tip in some places than others.

Presumably as the market for parking goes away the owners of it will find a more profitable use for the space.
Reminds me of Frank Abagnale's book 'Catch me if you can'
We are not just talking about healthy young men when it's about GDR doping victims. You really think the benefits you'd consider "highly beneficial" in a man in his 20s are useful for girls and boys starting to take this stuff from 10-15 years old on? Liver failure, infertility, overly masculine features (more a problem for the women of course), injuries due to non-muscle parts of the body not being appropriately developed for the weight-lifting the muscles now can sustain, ...

You can not use claims that steroids can be safely used to argue that "it wasn't so bad" for victims of criminal misuse of them, and your post dangerously sounds like trying to downplay it that way.
I don't totally disagree with you but people have to work within practical realities. In this case, western countries have pretty much decided that being allowed to drive on public roads so long as you can reach the gas pedal is probably a bit too free and easy. On the other hand, requiring the sort of significant time and financial commitment required to get and maintain a pilot's license--together with medical exams, etc.--isn't realistic to require for something that many people effectively need to be able to function in society.

So you end up with the current system which is fairly similar across states and countries with somewhat greater or lesser rigor depending on the particular place.
Couldn't agree more...People were creating universes with 1.44MB on floppies. Instead, Viber desktop app installer, for example, is a 133MB download, ~300MB installed and probably uses double the RAM...
came here to say that. it was a pleasant surprise in january of this year - had little internet connection while exploring a small island (got off a cruise ship). Found google maps had an 'offline mode', so I just downloaded the maps for the island and was good to go. Wasn't until April that maps notified me that the data was expiring and would be deleted.
What you mean to say is that professors are heavily incentivized to shop out TAs to companies in trade for "consultancy fees", or even board positions ...

Entire departments are built on this principle.
My early 2015 13'' MBP had the same problem, which is quite well-documented online. Have you tried replacing the keyboard cable? It's a ~€10 fix (say 20, if you don't have a pentalobe screwdriver) and there are lots of tutorials floating around on the web.

I agree that too-expensive machines shouldn't fail so badly, but so it goes.
OSM does not offer live traffic data, which makes it hard to use it for real life navigation. Does anyone know a project that takes care for this kind of data?
This perspective completely misses the politics and history of these countries.

Colonialism, interference from external powers, exploitative capitalism, being caught in the middle of the 'great game' can all derail any natural resource wealth like in Venezuela.

Saudi Arabia is a very unique history and continues to exist as a feudal regressive regime with global support and approval while Saddam, Gaddafi and Assad who would be Mother Teresa in comparison to the Saudis in terms of women's rights and religious freedom get the full 'human rights demonization treatment' with their countries and people in tatters.

50 years later people may well wonder why these countries are so 'backward' with no context of what happened to them. Russia is nearly an entire continent with a dramatic history and is unique in nearly every way.
Leaving the urban area of my city for the 'burbs was awesome, I highly recommend it.
It also had the benefit of moving the meter maids off the city payroll...
i sure hope so!
I'm less skeptical than the other responders. VRChat in particular has been quite a viral sensation with a few popular memes, and a lot of twitch.tv activity.

VR is what got me to build my own PC after a decade of exclusive mac use.
I don't think that's the point of the article. It's to appear within the confines of the game to pursue winning, while retaining losing as the goal. Perhaps it makes the game more challenging when, for whatever reason, the game is no longer fun to play. I imagine athletes at their peak fitness and training would be performing in a way that can become routine, repetitive, and restrictive.
I work at home and have for a long time.

Right now I'm in our basement in a room that used to be a bedroom for our sons who've now moved out. It's a pretty big room, about 12' x 20' but I don't take up near all that space for work.

My desk is just a cheap 30" x 6' table with fold up legs. I have a Mac connected to two monitors on it (18" and 24") and a Raspberry Pi connected to another 16" monitor, and a USB switch for the keyboard/mouse to switch between the Mac and Pi.

You do really want a good chair. I don't have any recommendations for that except to say you need to find one that's comfortable for you.

Personally, I love working from home. I'm way more productive at home. When I'm coding I really don't like distractions so I don't want anyone popping in on me.

After a long session of coding, or when I hit a wall, I need to take a break. I generally go to Facebook or come here to give my head a rest. I imagine that would be really hard to do working in an office, especially if breaks were scheduled.

Having to stop coding based on a scheduled time would be tough for me. Once I dive into it several hours can go by in what feels like no time at all and I get a lot of work done when I immerse myself in it like that.

I can imagine that some people might not do well working like this. They'd miss the routine of going to an office and working with others and even not having anyone looking over their shoulder making sure they're working.

For me, learning to code was motivated by the concept of "telecommuting to work". I think that's a phrase from the mid-80s that was trending in Los Angeles where I lived and other big urban areas at the time. It took me about 10 years to make the transition but I've been doing it since the mid-90s and working solely on web base projects since `99.

Other than getting some face to face time, which is a good thing, I don't see a real need for coders to drive someplace to work. If I were you I'd be thinking about how I could get them to let me work from home more, or entirely.
Is there a way to hide adblocking from the site so they don’t even know you’re using it?
Any writer needs to consider their intended audience; but here on HN, at least, I don't think anyone needs to be shy about using semicolons.
Wait, what? You can target someone using their email address?
I had not considered that planning cities like this was meant to be community-hostile, but I can easily see how this is meant to breed a dependence on corporate solutions.

This has the taste of conspiracy, but I do believe you're right. There's a lot of money to be made this way.
Bingo. The only way to have "equality" is by making the standards far below what even an average student is capable of.
I think awareness is what makes that comparison not work. There's a reasonable expectation when you see a facebook ad that you're trying to be swayed (could be argued in itself I guess, that's a different discussion), but Corbyn in this case was entirely unaware that he was being duped.

This is really a chain of command problem rather than specifically an advertisement problem.
>There is no upside to using more memory.

But there is an upside to better security. It'd be great if it was a free lunch but apparently it's not.

>Chrome needs to be as efficient as possible.

Chrome needs to make its users as happy as possible. Efficiency only matters when it starts affecting user happiness.

>Creating an ideal situation to make Chrome fit is disingenuous.

Do you know that it's an "ideal" situation rather than typical? I don't either but I also suspect Google wouldn't turn this on if it was going to negatively affect most users because they run the risk of losing market share to Safari/Firefox/Edge. I'm open to evidence to the contrary.

>Hopefully in time they find a way to retain safety without furthering to bloat their browser.

That's most likely going to be in the Intel/AMDs court.
In comparisions like these where they make claims that 100k isn't enough for a family of four, do they take into account the significant amount of equity people get working at the Bay Area. I guess all major money is in the stock grants, right ?
I think that "everything is a file" is superseded by "everything is a reference". Memory for example isn't a file. Neither is a GPU.

I believe that Windows' HANDLE is closer to the correct abstraction.
>Sounds like a perfect fit for the Apple ecosystem.

I've read statistics that most users, business or not, don't update anything, even when the hardware gives them the opportunity.

For businesses it doesn't even make much sense to update: they can just lease or buy new computers and have them as a tax writeoff.

As for most people, they just buy a new PC every 5-6 years (can be 10 years for the less interested in tech), and that's it.

It's a small niche of tinkerers and "power users" (actually power tinkerers -- there are users that do much more important stuff with the computers than them that still don't tinker at all) that ever does upgrade stuff.

Of course that's includes many people in our tech bubble, but you'd be surprised how many programmers don't care for upgrading and tinkering, and just buy a new laptop every so often.

As a programmer myself (CS degree and everything) I know I hate tinkering with hardware with a passion, but I know lots of others that do too. Of course I also know many dev friends and colleagues that do like building custom rigs.
Not if your browser extension is blocking the remote Javascript code that's used for displaying the ads.

And even if you did manage to reverse-engineer an extension to send a "ads loaded" token to the site, their ad network would update their code a week later. That's why folks call it an arms race.

OSS's greatest leverage points have always been in the niches, the cases where _if_ it's useful in your situation, you are a very lucky person indeed.

Having read the article I think it's using a great little leverage point: Do you have a website with a map? Does the map not work anymore? ("Yikes, will my map stop working," people think)

OSS doesn't have to win big popularity battles; the little cases here and there just add up over time. Soon it's in the background of everything, even proprietary software, because it's so useful that migration and contributions to the source code make sense.
The goal was to satisfy the boss that suggestions they didn't think would work were being carried out whilst spending the bulk of their ad budget on things they thought would work out.

It's far closer to the case where workers send a board they think is clueless a link to some boilerplate code as the requested "blockchain" whilst continuing to implement the Postgres solution they're pretty convinced will work.
The corner store by my house sells milk, eggs, frozen meals, and fruit. I've seen similar offerings at corner stores around the US. Not all of them do, but to assume they all don't is a rather ignorant approach.
Pearl Street is the main drag. It's essentially a college town although a fair bit of tech has moved in. It's actually pretty walkable but Boulder is very protective of open spaces and conservative about growth generally so you're not going to see anything like a dense urban core. Somewhere like Ithaca NY isn't that different.

Of course, you wouldn't want to live in Boulder without a car. Pretty much the whole point of being there is to get into the mountains.
It's amazing they have gotten this far but can't even deliver packages properly. The last few orders, they haven't even tried. Their new delivery service is manned by idiots who can't even read maps. What's worse is that they will lie and say they attempted delivery, but they don't leave a note or anything because they don't even go by the house. I understand the job sucks big time for the drivers, but this is unacceptable no matter what. 2 day shipping my ass. The packages delivered with Amazon's service simply never arrive. Then there's the matter of them closing accounts, lying that there were some violations of undisclosed policy, and stealing the prime payments. Of course people are going to return an inordinate amount of stuff when most of the stuff available to buy is fake or shoddy quality. Every time I go back and give them another chance, I regret it. I guess others are less sensitive to such issues.
They’d just make an Adblock detector detector detector
Will Ethereum surpass Bitcoin in market cap by next year?
Being able to operate on everything with the same tools is not a goal that everyone desires all the time. For instance, look at all the things with torx screws instead of phillips heads. Or, type systems in computer languages. Or, support for non-variadic functions. Or, file systems with forks.
>So, WebAssembly itself, the core, is completely independent of the web. The web is a particular environment that Wasm is embedded in, but not actually required to use wasm. Other embedding APIs can be created, with their own interfaces, to do various things.

Does that mean one could e.g. create Node.js modules in Wasm, like we also have the C++ modules? That could give a nice boost to certain kinds of code like text processing and math (e.g. a big integer or matrix algebra library).

(Perhaps this is already a thing).
I always wanted /dev/zero, which is used to mmap zeros into memory, to be more general and use the device minor number to define which byte gets mapped, so you could mknod /dev/seven with a minor number of 7, to provide an infinite source of beeps!
OT: was there ever a time in the US when there were groups that were discriminated against and for whom the word "caste" was actually applied to in common usage?

I'm curious because the preamble to Article IX, "Education", of the Washington State Constitution says: "It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders, without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste, or sex".

I have not been able to find out what groups they had in mind when they chose the word "caste" in that.
Does anyone know if this plays well with multiple threads with a separate coroutine machine on each simultaneously?
But some things can be abstracted as files, and that's where Windows interoperability (and as a consequence, automation) falls short.
I like that the arguments for OpenStreetMap were more about the advantages over Google Maps, instead of "because Google is a 'bad' company" like so many Google debates delve into.

I love using Google Maps for my applications, but I'll definitely look into OpenStreetMaps now.

Oh I agree. Maybe for a few years after school if I had a job in the city I could imagine a handful or two of cities that I might forgo owning given the various options like Zipcar and Uber available today. But long term? I'm not sure there's any US city other than NYC/Manhattan where I wouldn't. (And I wouldn't live there.)
