Also, don't let your Vitamin D level drop too low.

Of course the best way to get Vitamin D is to be out in the sun... Your gut is pretty bad at absorbing it.
100% agreement. The Bank required one (which I had to pay for) to determine what they would loan. This was also during the housing crash. The report included some google street images and compared it unrelated properties miles away, listed for 25-50% less. I walked inside those properties. They weren't comparable. It ended up reducing what the bank would loan so my downpayment was bigger.

The actual home inspector spent an hour or two inspecting the house and charged much less. I'd gladly pay him again.

I believe Jobs in particular had some undiagnosed and untreated lifelong psychological difficulty; his intelligence allowed him to function in spite of this but at a great cost to the people around him.

No, it was the usage for which the application of the term to vehicles was adopted in the early 20th century, it's been that way for nearly a full century, and it's not changing.

What's your problem with it?
> Reminds me of chatting with a director level manager at a fortune 500 firm. He was on vacation between assignments. When I asked why he was being reassigned he said the company moves them around every 2-3 years.

This is a healthy practice in larger organizations. Not only does it avoid the concretion of personal politics but it exposes managers to a breadth of experience, which is useful if they are promoted. It also ensures that the organization has stretched its adaptation muscles regularly, and is not brittle in the event of personnel turnover.
CRuby/MRI/YARV is almost as fast as BEAM at web stuff in terms of total throughput and JRuby is significantly faster. Sinatra + Sequel is faster at some things and slower at others. The default Rails setup makes huge tradeoffs away from performance.

But that name certainly wasn't the name the natives gave it before the Spanish expedition came around. Names change over time. Sometimes because of rebranding, sometimes because of hostile takeover of foreign land.

Call it what you want, but I don't see the point of being concerned over the change.
I'd think vaccines would have been a noticeable chunk of that as well.
I'm Old Expert Programmer Dude now, so I get to tell stories.

1. Worked with a team of outside experts once. We were brought in to stand up an internal team of coaches. The first week there, the four of us got together. I asked "Do we want to do standups?"

Another coach said nope, we're professionals! What do we need standups for?

The rest of us met every morning for breakfast. No standing up, no meeting. But we knew what we had to cover in between shooting the crap.

We did well. He did not.

2. Worked with another team once who were doing some gnarly embedded work. The lead, a super-smart C++ guy, announced that he wasn't going to do standups because he was a professional (see a pattern here?) and could communicate just fine without tossing a football around.

He finally came. Every morning the team would have fun with the nerf ball (which is just something fun to toss around. Who cares if you have one or not?) When it was his turn, everybody stopped smiling and somebody put the little football on the ground at his feet. Then he spoke. He never did touch the nerf ball.

I was trying to help them do mocks and rapid hardware prototyping, but he wasn't getting it. Finally one day, just after the standup, somebody said something like "You know John, if we did this thing like this, we could work a lot faster"

He said he hadn't thought of that (even though multiple people had suggested it. It just wasn't phrased the right way for some reason) and agreed to start right away.

I smiled as he left and asked him "Wasn't that a great standup!"

"Nope. Could've had that conversation just the same without the stupid meeting"

Yes, you could have. But you didn't. Communication is weird. There are no big, flashing red lights when you fuck it up. And when it works, it doesn't feel like anything has happened.

So when people want to do things differently, I always encourage it. If they focus on the goal, they'll come back to these lessons. If they focus on the ritual, however, it'll never ever make any sense to them. (And they very well may end up making life miserable on everybody around them)
I am strongly suspicious that the contingent of residents that hired the nonprofit is not all of the residents, and the people objecting to the new name decided to try and use google maps as their battle ground.

I am not trying to assign correctness, it might be that a developer came in and started the rebranding project to raise property values in objection to other residents, or the objectors might just be curmudgeons, the article doesn't provide enough information to tell.
> It's something you can't discover until you've already signed the lease and moved in.

I always call the local ISPs to ask about getting a quote for the new address before I've moved in.
I agree, what you describe provides an opportunity to solve problems - far from useless! Certainly there's judgement needed in terms of where something becomes too detailed or digresses too far but that comes down to practice and intuition and feedback to get a consensus.
A good rule of thumb is if the topic does not concern current politics or other hot-cake issue, Wikipedia is a usually good source of common facts (i.e. ones that would not require very deep knowledge to understand or present properly) and a decent source of links to more in-depth treatment of the topics. Not always true, but very frequently is.

However, when you approach a topic having to do with everyday politics, the neutral point of view is nothing but a dream. A noble dream, but a dream nonetheless. There would be facts omitted, there would be facts presented in a distorted fashion, there would be biased sources quoted, there would be claims that the source does not support, there would be unsourced claims, there would be biased and agenda-driven language. There be dragons.

And that is just from well-meaning (and probably even supporting the NPOV dream if asked) volunteers, I am not even talking about paid and conflict-of-interest (i.e. editing page about oneself or one's boss) editors which exist too. Such is human nature. It is possible to fight it, and sometimes it is possible to win, but it is hard, annoying, exhausting and demands a lot of time. So, a lot of people don't have time or desire to get into this. Which means, be careful with Wikipedia pages that are about current politics.
You were talking about losing the popular vote and explicitly disclaimed the rest, and I was following along.

These are to a large extent the same observations as the ones made by Thomas Piketty in _Capital in the 21st Century_. I’m a classic liberal in the Smith/Mill sense, but nevertheless found it to be a thoughtful criticism of the capitalistic system. Besides a thorough look at the dynamics of wealth and income inequality, Piketty’s main thesis is that the higher rate of return that you typically see on capital, as compared to the equalizing effects of economic, will lead to an ever increasing concentration of wealth unless checked. I didn’t find his position to be anti-entrepeneurial, rather he seems bothered by the fact that collecting rent tends to pay better than value-creation through labour, including entrepeneurial efforts.
In your context bob is with a group. The group knows where bob is.

THAT is the important distinction. As someone lost you KNOW you are known to be lost AND have an idea where others SHOULD be looking for you.

AGAIN, my advice is for the inverse of this context, where you must report your self as 'lost'.
Same thing happens in Chrome for OS X.
At the risk of re-igniting the flame war, I want to explain why one-time pads are not the solution, because you kept insisting that I rejected your proposal because I wanted to be loyal to the pro-HTTPS crowd, and not because one-time pads won't actually work.

If you find this patronizing, I apologize. I do not mean to be. But you admit that you're not into crypto, and so I'm assuming you don't understand why your proposal wouldn't work. At the very least, I don't know what you know and don't know.

So, as mentioned, supporting HTTPS on your site adds the problems of OpenSSL's large code base, a history of OpenSSL vulnerabilities (Heartbleed being very well known), and the problems of PKI. These are all well-known, and are deemed an acceptable risk because the risks of NOT using HTTP are much higher.

Now, one-time pads definitely have a lot of benefits. First, they're the only algorithm mathematically proven to be unbreakable when used properly. They are extremely simple to implement, and using them for encryption instead of having to choose between the dozens of algorithms that OpenSSL uses could reduce your encryption library's memory and storage footprint.

Of course, the big caveat here is that they are unbreakable when used properly. This means:

- A pad can never be used more than once -- If a pad is used twice, then an attacker that has sniffed two encrypted messages can derive the pad, and therefore decrypt all message encrypted with that pad. This derivation is quite trivial, especially for text data. (see https://crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/59/taking-advanta...)

- The pad must be at least as large as the payload -- If the pad is too short, you have to repeat the pad, causing the problem mentioned above.

- The transferring of the pad needs to be done over a secure channel -- You have to assume that an attacker is always listening and can see all traffic. Even if the server tells the client "Go get the pad from this URL", then the attacker will get that URL as well. Also, keep in mind that the pad needs to be at least the size of the data being sent, which means that if you have to fetch a pad, you're doubling all bandwidth requirements.

- The random number generator used to creating a pad must be cryptographically secure -- Being able to predict the supposedly random numbers another system is generating is a pretty known attack and has had several proofs of concept. Generating the amount of cryptographically secure numbers to create a one-time pad large enough for transferring very large amounts of data just isn't feasible.

- One-time pads do not solve the problems of PKI -- One-time pads do not offer any method of authentication. They're nothing more than a form of symmetric encryption, and symmetric encryption does not attempt to solve the problem of authentication.

That's basically the gist of it. If you want me to explain anything better (Like what symmetric encryption is, and how it differs from asymmetric), I'd be more than happy to. I'm not a crypto expert by any means, but I like to think I have a strong grasp of the basic concepts and ideas.

Aye. Thanks for linking me. Was wondering why I had a spike in traffic.
I usually take it to mean design choices, not construction quality. Houses in FL today are designed to be tightly sealed so as to keep the heat out and the AC in. Houses from the 60's and 70's were designed to allow the windows to be opened and you get a nice cool airflow, even on hot days.

I, personally, think this lack of openness in housing construction tends to keep people from interacting much with their neighbors. If your windows are open, people are more comfortable coming over and knocking on the door to say hello.
IMO house surveys in the UK are a joke and surveyors are a wildly overpaid joke profession. A typical survey, even a "full" survey, is 90% disclaimer. The remaining 10% is often obvious to anyone with working eyeballs.

If you want a useful opinion hire an experienced builder to assess the property - perhaps under the pretext of costing possible renovations.

When I was selling my mother's house a few years ago, a builder who viewed it instantly spotted all the problems that professional surveyors either missed or couldn't be bothered to mention.
There is one assigned property (trust) one relations table (signing key, signed key) and one computed property (validity, the output) and one condition.

I'd be very happy to see a simpler solution to the problem of decentralized authenticity.

There are quite literally zero homes in my price range within about 50 miles. I pay ~$1300 a month for 750sq ft and utilities. As a single guy, my only choice to not burn the money on rent would be to find a significant other or some other form of housemate and lock ourselves into a long term relationship.

The market is absurd.
I find it amazing how US managed to legalize bribes in the form of 'campaign contributions' and 'lobbying'. And how this model spreads across the world, because money is what matters most. Hence, extended copyrights, more expensive health care, more policies driven by interests of money and not for the masses...

looking at those earbuds, it seems like they are long enough that they would protrude out of my ear canal and bump up against the Bose headphones. This would mean they are actively pushed into my ear-holes and be highly uncomfortable.

Am I misinterpreting how long it is from the tip of the earbud to the "butt" of the earbud? It looks like it would be about 1.5 cm. How long is it?
It should be possible, because Arabic morphology follows a logical set of rules (mostly). For example, given a word like متوسط, you could match it for the standard conjugations for the 10 standard verb forms, of which it would match for #5 (متفعل), giving و-س-ط as the root. Verb form + conjugation would probably get you 50% of the way there (depending on how you count the number of valid words...) and I wouldn't be surprised if it's possible with just a regex. It would get a little harder once you go past the 10 verb forms and into plurals and adjective forms, which are usually shorter words, but a little less regular in their construction. It seems like it would be cumbersome to catch all those forms algorithmically. But someone has probably taken the time to do it.
Rich people don't charter jets because it may not be available when you need it.

I think that's either a team culture issue, a management issue, or a business culture issue. Teams I've worked on have had no issue brainstorming ideas for a person who's stumped.

Now, I'm not totally defending standups here, I've been on teams where daily standups are a stuffy formality, and they are miserable. I've also had the pleasure of being on teams where weekly standups were implemented, and they were an absolute delight and completely useful.

I will qualify all of my opinions with the fact that the best teams I've worked with implement Kanban, so there is no sprint planning. We just pull off backlog and work with weekly standups. There's way way less overhead, with some tradeoffs.

I also definitely think that certain team cultures are completely incompatible with standups, to the point that you receive negative benefit from implementing them. If you have a lot of people who are of the type "my responsibility ends where my story points end", I am pretty sure you will end up have a bad time doing standups.
I'm not familiar with exactly what teachers do these days, but I feel like it's a stereotypical teacher behavior to notice students who look like they're not paying attention—in whatever way, be it staring into space, reading an unrelated book, etc.—and call on the student and ask them to explain what they were just talking about. I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad practice, but it does fit the bill of "immediate correction" that could straightforwardly be applied to students looking at a phone.
I have tried Ear Defenders for a while, but found that the pressure they put on my head gave me a headache.

Yeah, but they'll lie and say they have service (because it is in their "service area") and you won't discover the truth until the installer calls to tell you that the building manager won't give them the key because they're with the wrong company. This happened to a friend of mine. He was pretty pissed that his $60 gigabit cable modem service was impossible and he had to buy some 15/5 link for $80/month from a different company instead.

Having similarly done both, I agree. But, its only because I'm privileged in the US. And I think OP was talking about raising the median, so at least they no longer have to worry about affording health care. In that respect, the Canadian system works great.

If you can afford private care, and are lucky enough to have good insurance through your job, you'll get better care in the US. Not in terms of quality, but in terms of wait times, and how nicely people treat you. I think the actual medical interventions are just as good either way.

I don't know if it would be possible to have it both ways. Give universal health care that's decent to all, yet give even better care to those willing to shell out extra.

I know in Canada its always a big debate. Some people think a hybrid public/private system could do it. Others worry it will just marginalize the affordable health care and lower its quality and increase even more its wait times.
The repository system on Debian, Arch, Fedora is clearly not a walled garden like Apple or Microsoft's app stores. Any site can host a repository that you can add to your package manager's sources, and you're free to install .deb/.rpm packages from any source you want, not to mention tarballs or compiling from source code. Also, there's no motive for lock-in like mainstream app stores have.
