Thank you! It's definitely hard to get right, but we're happy that so far we seem to be doing the job well! Even my dad (a very harsh critic when it comes to authentic Indian food) is a fan!
The power chieftains hold in these positions is usually:

* Organising and directing the hunters, and dividing their kill.

* The power to declare war, and to divide the spoils.

* Powers relating to treaties and trade with other tribes.

* Adjudicating disputes between families.

The chief and his retinue are often the only recognisable political offices in such societies, in the sense that:

* There is an open and explicit process for selecting the office holder.

* Everyone openly acknowledges their authority.

* They make open proclamations with regards to their rules and determinations.

* They are held accountable for their decisions and their outcomes.

They constitute the public, universal aspect of power — formal authority. This is not the only kind of power possible.

As an earlier poster notes, in most East Asian societies from time immemorial women held the purse strings. Many societies are organised in such a way, that women have great power in aggregate but men hold the official, political positions. Susan Carol Rogers’ “The Myth of Male Dominance: Female Forms of Power” explores this dynamic in French peasant society. Patriarchy and women being in practice more powerful can co-exist.

There are virtually (actually?) no matriarchies in history or on the earth today, in the sense that women hold the majority of positions where power is open, accountable and governed by law (or custom). In most historical societies, women held none of these positions. That doesn’t mean they just rolled over and played dead while men ran riot with the power.

Perhaps as modernity got underway, the official power of men became much more significant. It wasn’t always the case that getting a new road in your town required approval at the state/province level. Informal, local power receded from view and it was only reasonable that women sought the formal, political kind in modernising societies. This change also makes it hard for us to recognise the importance of informal power in simpler societies.
I can't answer the question and I certainly don't want to judge someone else's family planning.

However, I think this particular perk raises some interesting questions:

My first thought was that this is the ultimate in deferred life plans.

However, it also allows people to keep their options open and not sacrifice one opportunity for the other.

Perhaps, it's even a good counter argument to rationalising judging people by their sex rather than skill ("She can get pregnant so we better hire the male candidate.").

Nevertheless, it's in some way representative of a traditional work culture that values time over outcome and that considers time spent outside of work as something inherently bad or at least questionable.

It shows that the employer in this case exerts some degree of control over not just your working life but your life outside of work as well. At the very least because freezing your eggs brings about the expectation that you won't get pregnant all the same.
The last time I virtualized macOS, I had to find and use some arcane compiler flags to get homebrew or any builds to work.
Here are a few other suggestions:-

- Playing video games

- Cooking

- Watching TV

- Listening to music

- Talking to non-technical friends

- Closing my eyes and slow your breathing

- Exercise

I can see all but video games and watching TV, where again you sit in front of a screen. Doesn’t help me. Instead, I’d add hiking in the hills, forest, mountains, being outside in nature in general. Nothing is more re-energizing for me than that.
No, of course not. In backup, we basically use this as a counter: `hardware_counter_value + 2000000000`. We don't care that `hardware_counter_value` cannot be larger than `2097151`; the value we use for calculations is 32-bit, so effectively, for the backup token, the values will start at `2000000000` and the maximum possible value will be `2002097151`.

But the primary token uses just `hardware_counter_value`, so its range is from `0` to `2097151`.

The important part is that the ranges of primary and backup tokens don't intersect.
Well, in guile you get goops which is pretty much a clone of clos, call/cc is being phased out in guile since delimited continuations are the new black, unwind-protect is not enough in a language where you have first class continuations so the complexity of dynimic-wind is needed. For your escape continuation needs you can implement unwind-protect and very easily abstract away the parts of dynamic-wind you don't need.

The only thing missing is really the condition system, but that could be bolted on (that is the correct term) using continuations (preferably delimited). There is even a suggestion for r7rs-large to include them. I hope it gets voted in.

>The share holders are free to take it or leave it.

And they tend to take the offers from founders that give them voting power to decide the reason for the company to exist. If a founder wants to raise money without trading away power in the company they can try to sell such shares, but they should expect far less interest in people wanting to buy them.

Also, should we really call them shareholders or investors at that point? They are more like backers, similar to people who spend money on kickstarter.
Thanks for the suggestion! We've had quite a few customers use this for camping and hiking, although it's not as flexible for longer trips since it needs to stay refrigerated or frozen.
While .45 ACP is higher grain, the velocity is lower and the rounds tend to "overpenetrate" (meaning, exit the body entirely). One of the reasons 9mm was widely adopted was the penetration properties - 9mm tends to stay in your body (making more of a mess). Even with these advantages, it is unlikely you will be killed by a single 9mm round to your torso.

But generally you are right - the larger rounds like 10mm and .500 will smash whatever they hit while .22 and other smaller calibers are likely to only make the intended target very angry.

The moral isn’t that you should try something new. It’s that if you’re trying something new and not doing great with it — and feeling embarrassed about it, keep soldiering on. Embarrassment is a natural part of the process.
Spent a lot of time in Heath tech. Main driver for administration is costs imposed by insurance schemes, even (especially) in public systems.

Insurance causes hyperinflation in drug prices and services. It's just a giant pool of money that nobody owns and everyone wrestles for, except instead of competing on price and service quality, they use lawfare and bureaucracy to impose costs and disincentives on each other.

Administration bloat has a few causes, some as a result of the effect above, and some from political factors.

The solution? Automation. If you want to get rid of the administrative bureaucratic layer, develop technologies, products, and platforms that decimate it.

I disagree that the phrase is meaningless. This leadership philosophy is very different from traditional Western ideals of leadership, though tbh I don't think the article did a very good job describing it. I first learned about it from the best leader I've ever worked for, David Cancel (CPO at the time). I absolutely considered myself blessed to have the good fortune to work for someone whose primary focus was making my work easier, rather than wringing every last drop of efficiency out of me. Perhaps it's a difference that one needs to experience to appreciate.

It's not "strong", it's "strongly universal", which is a well defined mathematical property. Universal hash functions are the basis of MAC part of popular authenticated encryption algorithms, like GCM and ChaCha-Poly1305 (though for this purpose 128-bit tags are preferred).

Though I don't see what the point of this particular implementation is, with its hardcoded keys and fixed 64-bit inputs instead of a random secret key and variable length inputs.

You will have a hard time balancing the spice levels. You can't satisfy both Indian and non-Indian demographic or you will have to have a spicy, less spicy type of each item. As an Indian, I cant stand the westernized non spicy versions of the supposedly authentic Indian foods. So I wouldn't buy them nor eat in those type of Indian restaurants. Its the same case vice versa. Non Indians may not like the spicy versions.

Another thing to note that though its called "Indian food", there is no thing as an "Indian food", just like not everyone from India knows Hindi.

Indian food varies drastically as you travel from North to South, East to West. But for westerners, its mainly butter chicken/daal/Vindaloo/Paratha/Chapathi. For someone from South India, it will be Dosa/Appam/Idly/Idiappam/Pongal/Avial/Sambhar/Rasam or Fish curry. One of your challenges lies in catering to the Indian & Non Indians palettes alike.

> Several thousand citizens can donate to a political campaign, which spends their money, rather than a PAC.

Only if there's a political campaign that represents the issues they care about in the first place. Oftentimes that's not the case.

And even then, there's no guarantee that the campaign would use that money specifically to promote the issues that they care about.

So, they've looked at a sample of exploits that were critical on Linux and established that most wouldn't have been critical on a hypothetical otherwise-similar microkernel system.

But they haven't looked at a sample of exploits that were critical on an actual microkernel OS and seen how many would have been less serious (or not arisen) on a hypothetical otherwise-similar monolithic-kernel system.

It reminds me of a nice observation in "Surely you're joking, Mr Feynman". Feynman developed some nonstandard ways of solving mathematical problems. Other people came to him and he repeatedly solved problems they'd been stuck on. "He must be much smarter than us!" But the problems they brought to him were selected as ones they couldn't do, so of course he'd look better than them on those. They never bothered asking him problems he couldn't do but they could, because they'd already done them.

Now, maybe the authors of the paper are confident that there's no way that a microkernel design could encourage or exacerbate vulnerabilities. But so far as I can see they don't offer any actual argument for that proposition.
PSA: Trying to hold your breath for a long time is dangerous, especially if you hyperventilate first. People die this way.

The hyperventilation thing is because your brain needs oxygen to live, but your impulse to breathe is driven by carbon dioxide saturation. When you hyperventilate, you get rid of a ton of carbon dioxide, and you can get into a situation where you don't have enough CO2 buildup to trigger the signal to breathe, but you have so little oxygen that your brain is dying.

Personally, not something I'd like to mess with.

> surveillance video is rarely abused

What makes you believe this? I am cynical and suspect it happens all the time, but I doubt either of us knows.
>Does that really happen enough to worry about?

Yes, of course it does. There are literally millions of violent crimes in the US in any given year.

>Should I spend my money on a newer, safer car or a gun?

I leave that to you to decide. I don't know you. Bringing a gun into your home might make you less safe if you are an irresponsible person or if you have psychological issues. If you are a responsible person with no psychological issues, but you live in an area that has virtually no violent crime, then it might just be a waste of money.

>I can't imagine that there are that many scenarios where a gun saves the day from violence

There are estimated to be over 100,000 defensive uses of guns in the US each year. The widespread ownership of guns has had a clear influence on the behavior of violent criminals. Particularly, in the US, criminals avoid breaking into homes when they are occupied, because they know many occupants will be armed.
Watch the TED talk linked elsewhere in the thread, there are many, many things he talks about doing that are also poor ideas.
> What a hilariously arrogant statement.

Ad hominem attack required because factual statements do not support any of your arguments.

Well, if your statement is factually correct, then the statistics show that a huge chunk of gun owners are incompetent.

Your statements are not helping your case.

Sorry for the confusion! I meant to specify that the traditional spices like you mentioned contain sodium, not salt. We include red and green chillies, homemade garam masala, ginger, etc. all of which add up to increased amounts of sodium in the product. We are working on lowering sodium in each product while maintaining the taste and flavor.
>"Our products are fresh and don't have any preservatives,"

But Salt is probably the most common food preservative there is and the reason canned foods have such high levels of it.

Why is the salt content on many of these items through the roof for ready-made meals meant to be eaten soon after delivery.

I remember you used to have more detailed nutritional information on your website. I recall this specifically because of noticing how much sodium is in the product. Am I misremembering? I guess a visit wayback machine would sort this out but thought I’d ask here first.

XCB is, per wikipedia, "comparable, but slightly lower-level"; read that with emphasis on "slightly". It's certainly better than xlib, and if you were to write a real WM from scratch these days you should probably use it, but I think bringing it up is sort of besides the point in this conversation: OP was wondering if any sort of cheating was going on by including an X protocol library, and the answer is "no": neither xlib nor XCB would be appreciably providing any sort of abstraction around the concept of "X window manager".

Ask HN: What are favourite Docker commands for a Cheatsheet?
Hi,

I've put together a docker cli cheatsheet as a pdf at http://lostindetails.com/Content/cheatsheet/docker/blue_light.pdf

I would like to ask what are your favorite docker cli commands for a cheatsheet - so basically what am I missing?

If you can't stand the color, I've created a couple of different ones at:
http://lostindetails.com/blog/post/Docker-Cheatsheet

I've added the commands that I found most useful and tried to organize them in a way that is most sensible for me and when I did so and looked through the documentation I found a couple of new ones that I didn't know about like 'docker diff' and 'docker top' so I am guessing there are more gems out there!

Thanks!

Take care,

Markets with unlimited freedoms are not good markets. It's why we have things like antitrust laws and why the ISP market in the US is such total shit. Supply and demand does not create equality. The argument for capping CEO salaries is that we need more equality and having it come at the expense of making markets slightly less free is pretty normal, acceptable, and morally just.
>This week a meta-analysis of seven studies involving a total of 6,250 subjects in the American Journal of Hypertension found no strong evidence that cutting salt intake reduces the risk for heart attacks, strokes or death in people with normal or high blood pressure. In May European researchers publishing in the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that the less sodium that study subjects excreted in their urine—an excellent measure of prior consumption—the greater their risk was of dying from heart disease. These findings call into question the common wisdom that excess salt is bad for you, but the evidence linking salt to heart disease has always been tenuous.... Intersalt, a large study published in 1988, compared sodium intake with blood pressure in subjects from 52 international research centers and found no relationship between sodium intake and the prevalence of hypertension. In fact, the population that ate the most salt, about 14 grams a day, had a lower median blood pressure than the population that ate the least, about 7.2 grams a day. In 2004 the Cochrane Collaboration, an international, independent, not-for-profit health care research organization funded in part by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, published a review of 11 salt-reduction trials. Over the long-term, low-salt diets, compared to normal diets, decreased systolic blood pressure (the top number in the blood pressure ratio) in healthy people by 1.1 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) by 0.6 mmHg. That is like going from 120/80 to 119/79. The review concluded that "intensive interventions, unsuited to primary care or population prevention programs, provide only minimal reductions in blood pressure during long-term trials." A 2003 Cochrane review of 57 shorter-term trials similarly concluded that "there is little evidence for long-term benefit from reducing salt intake."

Congrats on your launch and success, and thanks so much for sharing a lot of useful info, apps, and stats! Appreciate it.

I'm about to launch my 1st Shopify store in a very niche market. Some questions for you in that context...

1. When you came up with the idea for selling your products -- and it looks like you invested about 8K in initial inventory -- did you do any kind of research to see if there might be a need and it would take off, or did you go with "gut feeling" ?

2. How many days from the site going live did you make your 1st, 10th and 50th sale?

3. Did you spend any time at all "evaluating competitors" / existing ecommerce sites that sell your product(s) or things close to your product(s)?

4. Did you do any pre-launch marketing either offline (by way of flyers) or online (by way of ads) before the day the site went live?

5. Did you use any copy editor or stock images for your products, or did you do both copy and images (photos) of the products on your own?

6. How important is it to have a supporting blog / news section? Do you do it to drive traffic?

7. Any "hacks" you can share to acquire new customers and retain existing customers? What worked for you, what didn't?

Thanks again!

EDIT: Needed to see this in your conclusion.
