I actually think it is probably more insidious than that. We have a lot fewer full-time homemakers. Women are much more likely to have paid jobs.

The only way to schedule the birth is by scheduling a C-section. Waiting for the baby to show up when it decides to do so is a very organic, let nature take its course, humble thing to do and it is pretty alien to how most people live these days in developed countries.

Historically, we farmed. We had to figure out how to respect nature and work with it. Most jobs today don't really do that. We think we are in control.

"Entrepreneurship means killing yousrefl with more work than in a day job."

I asked this question just yesterday. The challenge (the one I was interested in) was if this can be done in a general purpose way for arbitrary programming languages so long as they used libc to go through the file system. I actually think it might be theoretically possible using LD_PRELOAD and some equivalent on OSX. I don't know why I'm compelled to want the executable to leave no trace on disk, but it seems much cleaner. However, if you _write_ to the virtual file system, that will need to change the packed binary itself which might result in problems (the binary would grow/shrink as you pack more / less files into it at runtime by writing to the "disk").

Maybe it's just not worth it and a temp directory is not so bad. I just worry about little changes to the way `mktmp` works across OS updates etc. A totally self contained executable that leaves no trace, with virtual file system support is about as isolated and reliable as you could ever hope. I just don't think anyone has been determined enough to achieve it.

It's interesting the article says no one noticed these regulations but this one seems like a big deal since there was so much press about those passengers removed off of planes not too long ago.

Online to Offline Business Model
It's not that simple.

There are superficial barriers and hoops in place which make the chances of you not getting your money back non-zero. Not to mention, it will at the very minimum inconvenience you and waste your time.

Credit cards are less problematic in this area, but when it's a bank account / debit card, there tend to be fairly agressive deadlines for identifying the fraudulent activity and contesting it as well as arbitrary processes, forms, and reviews unique to each the bank.

In the interim you don't have the funds - for many people living paycheck to paycheck this can be a catastrophic situation.

I recently had to go through this process with a debit card someone on the other side of the country had fraudulently charged $500 to. Due to my being in the midst of leaving for a long bout of travel, it was a nightmare to get the protest documented on time, and my bank suddenly required all sorts of exceptional identifying documents they never require in the course of regular business, requiring me to jump through a number of additional hoops like accessing my safe deposit box to retrieve my passport - when I wasn't even in the same state at the time. It all just added more delays to the process.

As far as I could tell, the bank was treating me as the potential criminal. They were operating under the assumption that I, the victim, am actually the perpetrator attempting to commit fraud. Through this lens, the process being frustrating and inconvenient to the customer appears advantageous, as it all increases the odds of them failing/giving up.

You don't need to use any libraries, you can do something as simple as:

$ zip -r mymodule.zip mymodule/
$ echo '#!/usr/bin/env python3' > myapp
$ cat mymodule.zip >> myapp
$ chmod 755 myapp

CPython will automatically detect it's a zipfile, unzip it in-memory, and import the __main__.py in the root of the module and any nested modules.

The reason why you have to handle shared libraries and any other non-.py data yourself is because Python doesn't know what to do with it. You can access it as binary data via pkgutil.get_data(), but linking shared libraries is system-dependent and Python doesn't load them itself. As the dynamic linker can't find a shared library in a zip file, the only thing you can do is extract it separately. This is documented in https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipimport.html

Any files may be present in the ZIP archive, but only files .py and .pyc are available for import. ZIP import of dynamic modules (.pyd, .so) is disallowed.
Reading most of these comments, and the article itself, I can't help but think that the rat race is just replaced with another race as it seems imperative to work on something for a lot of you that have written here which I find curious, even though I can relate and understand it.

>I find the phrase "oriental philosophy" to be problematic in addition to being quite vague. oriental philosophy

And I find your tone to be unnecessarily confrontational. People have been writing about consistent differences between Eastern and Western philosophies for at least a hundred years.

The debate is whether it’s OK to translate a “tripped LCI” to “water damage”.

If an accelerometer says that a car has been in a violent crash, but there is no observable external damage, is it ok to refuse to repair a broken engine that is under warranty?
The problem is that Apple simultaneously is using every means possible to prevent 3rd party repair.

Sure, if Apple wanted to declare everything that has the water sensors triggered as water damage and require a full replacement, even though their sensors get triggered by humidity, fine. As long as there are opportunities for customers to take it to an authorized Apple repairer or a 3rd party repairer to consider alternatives.

However, authorized apple repairers have to follow the same policy, and Apple is doing everything within its power to prevent unauthorized reparers from accessing schematics and parts, including using customs and copyright laws to prosecute them.

This is actually an easy problem to solve: define a list of extras in the standard including fees. The structure for each extra can be pretty rigid. Something like e.g.

short-name: Tray fee

long-name: You get a foldable tray for seat to use during the flight.

price: 39,99

includes-tax: false

This is basic data modeling, really. Tne real thing would probably have closer to 50 well defined fields instead of 4 because of real-world self-inflicted complexity in the system, but the concept is the same.
When we know that these so-called "influencers" are bought and paid for? It really reduces their effectiveness.

No, sorry. Stuff I read long ago and a quick Google is not turning it up.

One study I recall seeing introduced something like gum drops to primate groups. If the alpha male was given them first and liked them, this became the hot new trend for the entire group in just two hours.

My sister-in-law just had her first baby, and got very into all of these statistics and the "medical industrial complex take on childbirth"

I believe the WHO recommends around 10-15% of births should be C-Section in a healthy population, but the figures in first world countries are at least 3-5 times that.

There are about 3 million stories of ladies "booking in" their birth a month or three in advance. I.e. I want my baby on the 3rd of May, lets schedule a C-Section now. It's more convenient that way. Also tons of stories of doctors wanting to go home for the weekend or to play golf, so they do a C-Section after only an hour of labor so they can hurry it up.

It's horrifying that hospitals will market a "natural birth" as anything that is vaginal. i.e. it doesn't matter how many drugs they give you, it doesn't matter what drugs they give you to speed up the afterbirth, etc. etc. It's still "natural".
This is being downvoted, though is true to my understanding -- not uncommon for even the largest airports to have both ILS and non-ILS runways. (e.g. Runway 1L at SFO is non-ILS.)

In this particular case, the departure airport only had one runway, and immediately after the botched takeoff it was at least in dire need of a debris check, so I wouldn't be surprised if the airport was closed while that happened. Wouldn't have taken four hours, though, and I suspect that they would do whatever they could to accomodate an emergency aircraft had the pilot declared.
Ok so no mention of the health implications of so called "natural" childbirth, which aren't trivial and have an increasing risk as your age. No mention of the rising age of mothers in wealthy countries. No mention of different trade offs for fit 19 year olds and less active 35 year olds. A lot of 30+ women decide they don't want to piss their pants and have painful intercourse for the rest of their lives. Word gets around and it undermines trust in doctors advice when they don't even mention the issues. A higher proportion of doctors make the c-section choice. They're kind of educated, doctors, less likely to be bullshitted into higher, unnecessary fees too.

But you're not an idiot so you want the actual numbers. So did I. Not available, no research done and/or no doctors know of it and can hand you print outs of the papers.

How big of an umbrella is "Chinese food" in Japan? In China, you'd identify a restaurant by the province that its food is characteristic of -- Xinjiang food, Hunan food, Hong Kong food, etc. Those are all very different from each other. (There are more generic options too, of course.)

I really like some Xinjiang and Hunan dishes, but they're next to impossible to find in the US despite "Chinese" food ostensibly being common.
My opinion based on living with a midwife for most of my life. Not fair to blame the women for this The reason is more to do with the doctors or medical staff being cautious about complications from a normal birth than caused by the preference of a women for chosing a c section.

I've taken a couple breaks in between jobs, and I've come to realize that I have my very best work-life balance while unemployed. It's uncanny.

I work hard on my community projects, and then actually go out and socialize when I'm tired of working. Sometimes that's every night, but sometimes (if I'm feeling invigorated by a task), I will work nonstop for a week, before I need a social recharge.

Obviously, that is a single person's perspective of it, but I feel like it would be comparable if I'd been in a relationship :)

I agree but would like to add to that it's true, for the generation that built the principle. Another generation may build out that initial wealth or business. Usually by gen3 or 4 it's gone. At a point unless it's massive wealth (I'm thinking billionaires), there's a clueless generation raised that has no idea how lucky they're the descendants of that initial generation that worked hard and smart during good times, and loses it.

That part is key. It's really a combo of working hard in some way during strong economic times. You can do it in a down market but it's much more difficult. Building generational wealth in the 1950s was much easier than in the 1850s or than it will be in the 2050s, for example. If this isn't true, I'd like to institute a 100% inheritance tax and see how well someone like Meghan McCain or Paris Hilton fares against the rest of us.

My credentials in this.. my family did the exact story described here. Post-WW2 American family that built out an excavating company into a multimillion dollar empire that now includes a chain of banks and other side businesses. My wife's family, same thing but in the textile industry in Latin America. We were both tossed out, because our families are full of psychopaths and horrendous behavior, and we're actually decent folk who won't murder you for a larger inheritance (yes, it's happened in our families). So we never received any assistance, in fact, far less than even a normal, loving family of meager means would give their kids. She's out of her father's will because he blames her for his divorce, a 13 year old daughter at the time of his infidelity, and I'm expecting my brother and aunt to rob my parents blind. We have our own small side businesses but I'm currently hunting for a fulltime job and my wife is a public school teacher. From what I've seen in my life so far, I've never seen money do any good for anyone outside of basic needs. Maybe in the hands of a really wise, smart individual but that's tough to find and a fool is born every minute.

You would keep steering the car, while also attempting to unlock the seatbelt. Depending on the car, you could also activate the parking brake. (In my car, it's a button on the center console, and it can be activated at high speed and will provide emergency braking.)

"Serious" is still not the same as "fatal", even if your car hits something. If your plane stalls and falls hundreds of feet, my understanding is that the fatality rate is going to approximate 100%.
