As far as I know, honey has two material effects: it is tasty, and there are some studies suggesting it’s an effective cough suppressant. I’ve never heard of either one being temperature dependent.

I’ve heard people claim that local honey has anti-allergy properties. I would certainly believe that the active ingredients in pollen are destroyed at high temperatures. But AFAIK any purported benefits are entirely unsubstantiated, and the FDA notes that bee pollen can be actively dangerous to people who are allergic to the pollen.

P.S. I drink my tea above 44 C.
> Typing is slow. I swap auto completion dictionaries a lot.

Maybe this is not the phone for your usages. I do not expect to type much on it, only brief SMS and calls only.

> Limited memory forces you to delete previous reminders and sms conversations. Deleting them is done with a menu system that is inconsistent; the same command jumps to different positions.

It has 128MiB internal memory and an SD card slot for expanded storage. Do you have a version of the phone with less storage?

> Mms does not work with my provider.

Why would MMS not work? There are known issues switching from iPhone to non-iPhone due to Apple switching to use iMessage between iPhones. Going back results in missed messages. Could that be your issue?

Earlier incarnations of this phone did not have 3G support and also not quad-band.

> With some types of phones i call, there is some weird feedback of electronic noise that is only audible on my side.

Perhaps you got a bad build? Get a replacement and try again? Do some process of elimination: try with a headset and see if it goes away.

Overall I am lowering my expectations going to a phone like this, as one should. I only expect to do calls, simple SMS, and slow typing. But I have high expectations for long battery life and I will get this.

It's just a telephone.

RouteQL – GraphQL without the GraphQL
A rational actor is one who is able to decide what he thinks about an option, and who makes decisions that are transitive (ie. consistent).
In that sense, rationality is still the basis of economics, but this is not what a normal person understands as rationality.

Instead, a more narrow view (partly due to difficulties of dealing with uncertainty, partly due to the context of preferences in a dynamic setting) required adding other behavioral theories which are now rightly considered mainstream in economics as well.
All these non-rational actors are still rational in the general sense, in that they make choices based on preferences at some point in time.

There is, by the way, no other science dealing with human behavior that does not assume rationality. In business, this is called "bounded rationality" after Simon, but nowadays is basically and excuse to use rational actors even though we know "they ain't".
All sociological actors are rational as well, even though you will rarely find a sociologist write this as a statement. Still, choices are made as responses to the environment of social forces.

Quite generally, it would be impossible to theorize about human behavior if it were irrational. That, in the general sense, would mean that it is not consistent and not predictable and thereby inherently not accessible to science.

What you econ Professor told you is basically correct, but the correct formulation of this you will probably see the first time when you take a course on decision theory or graduate microeconomics.

I made something just like this that worked on forums. Basically any forum that was using the tapatalk plugin (pretty much any busy forum uses it these days) you could subscribe too. It doesn't look like this will handle mispellings of works, or anything like that. I was handling that, however it took a LOT of processing power and quickly realized that the more people used it, the more it wasn't going to scale really well. Good luck with your project.
Economist here. With non- zero probability, though the nuance is that inflation is under-reported when housing and energy are excluded from CPI. There is also a claim that hedonic substitution pushes down inflation measures, but that is more of a philosophical argument than a numeric argument.

Creating a Craft Gin Business – Pipehouse Gin
I want to be careful about doing Internet psych diagnosis, but you sound (from your previous comments) like you may be somewhere on the spectrum of depression/anxiety. Have you thought about talking to a professional?

I have no idea what my IQ is. I definitely know what my present limitations are, and I think about them a lot (I'm a little obsessed by the limits on my willpower that keep me from e.g. spending 8 consecutive hours studying abstract algebra, or learning Haskell). But I'm not alarmed by them. I am naturally "good at" some things (I'm coming to believe that "good at" is almost a synonym for "enjoys/gets a charge from") and other things are uphill climbs for me. I try to arrange my work so that my uphill climbs are always for a reason. I think this is a healthier attitude than trying to gauge some very-probably-fictitious intrinsic "IQ" attribute to find my place in the world.

If you can write in complete sentences and in a conversational tone, you're doing fine on charisma. Having organized and been involved in HN meetups in the past: you are almost certainly not anomalously inept in social situations. We are not the funnest cocktail party in the world.

I came across this post because I have a saved search for "IQ" (historically, "IQ" has been a reliably marker for seriously gross threads) and not because I clicked through on an "Ask HN" about "coming to grips with your own mediocrity". I'd gingerly suggest that the whole notion of "coming to grips with mediocrity" is a bit toxic and crazymaking.

> I find it odd that you think the question is not well defined.

You must assume that at least some of the coefficients of the x terms are non-zero.

> Do you not find that surprising?

No.

> how would you explain it?

I think it is up to you to explain why this is interesting.

Without the condition that k is greater than all the coefficients, the solution is clearly non-unique.

Given that, the assumption of the coefficients are integers, and that the solution is not a constant polynomial, the statement becomes equivalent to "division is a function".
edit: cool
Thanks that makes a lot of sense!
The literal syntax has nothing to do with MAP. I can define a MAP which returns a vector or a list, depending on the input:

CL-USER 111 > (defun maps (function sequence)
(map (type-of sequence) function sequence))
MAPS

CL-USER 112 > (maps #'1+ '(1 2 3))
(2 3 4)

CL-USER 113 > (maps #'1+ #(1 2 3))
#(2 3 4)

I can also write a compiler macro, so that the implementation is chosen at compile time, when a literal data object is used... stuff which a Common Lisp implementation already might do for MAP.

Common Lisp chose to define the basic MAP to always specify the result sequence I want to create or NIL for no sequence.

> You can use the #(...) syntax to include literal vectors in your code, but as the effects of modifying literal objects aren't defined, you should always use VECTOR or the more general function MAKE-ARRAY to create vectors you plan to modify.

That's not different for lists and vectors. For both I need to know which I want to modify. Common Lisp has generic operations to create and copy sequences for that: I can call COPY-SEQ to copy the literal sequence or call MAKE-SEQUENCE to create the sequence type I want.

Here (and in many other places) Common Lisp is a low-level language, which exposes these things to the programmer.

Tons of war happen without run up. Even if the run-up happened threw-out a period of months, it would still be shock.

A shock is change relative to some trend, not necessarily a fixed thing that happens in the news.

> As late as 2006 and 2007, we have economists on record as saying "everything's dandy". This was not due to a lack of data; they had most of the information then that we're arguing about now. Instead, it was because their models said what happened couldn't happen.

In 2006/2007 everything was more or less ok. While there was a housing crisis, GDP growth was on track and unemployment did not go up. You seem to think that everything after late 2008 was predetermined, witch is false.
You can get the EdgeRouter X for ~$50 and that will scale to symmetric gigabit connections, if your needs are simple (ie. you're just doing basic routing & firewalling, not trying to do traffic shaping, etc). Budget AP option then is a UAP-AC-Lite which you can buy off Amazon for ~$80, bringing your total to $130 all said and done.

That's cheaper than most all-in-one routers, and while you won't get the best single-client bandwidth, you will get much better management/configuration options.

Several different grounding electrodes can be used. It might be a literal rod buried in the ground, a group of 3 rods connected by copper wire, the cold water pipe, the steel structure connected to the concrete encased rebar in the foundation, if available, or a loop of wire buried in the ground surrounding the building.

They do get corroded and are supposed to be replaced every so often. Different materials are used depending on the type of soil to minimize the corrosion. If they're really fancy they might have a cathodic protection system to prevent corrosion.
Who are you trying to convince? I certainly don't trust "the media" (or as I typically call them "the war media") as anyone on HN who follows my copious commenting can tell you. At this point, I trust Facebook less than the newspapers, just based on my (very) occasional use and actually listening to what Facebook themselves say.

All that is beside the point. The point is that if as 'sonnyblarney indicated there a custom negotiation for every new organization that gets to peak behind the curtain, then the process is not standardized. Normal online firms have TOS and APIs, and it's possible to characterize what user data they release. For Facebook, apparently that characterization is not possible.

Animation certainly can help with transitions. Try keeping track scrolling an a stock emacs jumping half a screen per wheel tic.

Most of these animations totally make sense: https://material.io/design/motion/choreography.html#transfor... Look at the 2nd "don't" at "Complex transformations" to see how great animations are.

I do however get mad with apps that use page flip transitions. Such a simple and often used feature in a reading app is super annoying and should be possible to turn off. As in many cases: the power user needs no hinting and can even live with undocumented keyboard shortcuts, but for a smooth ride you from the start you need hints.
>Eating too much fruit gives an overload of fructose,

Note the operative modifier 'too much'

You can eat your recommended daily intake of fruit in one sitting with no other food and still remain below high GL levels.

Digestion is a complex process. Your model that anything containing fructose is bad is not supported by any data / analysis I am aware of, and contradicted by nearly all of it.

Mammals process most of thier fructose consumption in their small intestines. Only high doses that overload this capacity lead to harmful spillover to the liver etc.

It is difficult for me to describe just how angry it makes me that reddit doesn't provide a way for users to even do basic things like "see all of my own comments" or "see all of the posts made to the subreddit I moderate". They keep nerfing the search APIs and claim it is so they could make the indexes more efficient, but while that might make sense for a full-text search interface, that is entirely unreasonable for basic functionality like "I'm scrolling back through time on my own user page" (where the efficient index is pretty obvious). Both of "see all of the content I posted" and "see all of the content I'm supposedly responsible for" seems like it should be basic, if not required, functionality for any website.

Interestingly on a related note I just watched a documentary called "The Workers Cup" about laborers building the venues for the Qatar world cup and there were many shots of the laborers manually shoveling rocks and gravel in places where you would typically see a machine doing it here in North America.

I don't think that was the reason. I think no heads rolled because heads can't roll for things like this. The CIA, at least the portion of it which conducts operations like this, has no oversight or ability to be punished whatsoever. They raise their own funding, maintain their own army, navy, and air force, and conduct operations internationally without the slightest but of input from the US government. In every way that matters except name, they are a fully autonomous international criminal cartel. We learned about the whole 'run their own army, navy, and air force and fund their own ops' stuff way back in the 80s when Oliver North testified before Congress (which is on YouTube buts its hours and hours of testimony)... and nothing was done. I don't think it's an exaggeration to refer to them as the single biggest threat to democracy that exists. They actively prop up dictators in order to prevent democratic movements from gaining control in many countries because they fear democratically elected leaders in those places might not be pro-American. At least I think that's why they do it. It might just be because the dictators give them a place where they can hide drugs or whatever.

"When selling a mutual fund to purchase a fund in a different family, you are selling the mutual fund you own and using the proceeds to purchase another fund in a different fund family. Since you are performing a cross family trade, the settlement date for the sale will differ from the settlement date for the purchase. Typically, cross family trades execute over two business days."
