Exactly. If people taking a drug tend to get hit by a bus more frequently, it could actually indicate that the drug increases risky behavior, decreases peripheral vision, causes lapses in attention span, etc.

It doesn't mean that getting hit by a bus is a side effect of the medicine, but rather getting hit by a bus is a potential outcome of one of the side effects of the medicine.
Aren't "fraud" (on the scale we are talking about) and "the Mafia gets involved" kind of the same thing over there?

EDIT: I remember reading the article you linked, it's really good! Goes into much more than just olive oil fraud.
That’s not how the burden of proof works. The author claims that they’re “overrated”, yet doesn’t provide evidence to support that claim.

We shouldn’t be so used to headlines not matching up with article content, but then again, it’s 2018.
I recently did a job search in SF and very few companies were hiring or open to remote. I agree with the author that it's very ironic that tech gives us the tools to work remote but yet most tech firms insist on working face to face. Certain functions may be more conducive to it or more in demand to consider it.
>Teams hold more meetings when they don’t have enough important work to do otherwise.

This is... quite the statement. Teams hold more meetings as the size of their organization increases and any one individual cannot complete the work on their "shared digital artifact." This horrific, pre-digital concept termed "teamwork" emerges and the team discovers the most effective form of getting work done, as a team, is talking to one another.
That's just absurd - I have no love for React, but I can't imagine why anybody would adopt Angular now.
You don't need to be particularly careful. Apparently, the stats show the vast majority of deaths from overhydration in normal individuals are the result of water-drinking contests or exercise-related overhydration in ultramarathons and similar
TBH, it was so long ago that I totally expected to be starting from scratch. I am guessing that I'm progressing a lot faster than I might have when I was 20.

I think you're right that it's largely mental, though working carefully on my footwork and other technique has helped with some easy gains. Simply getting that idea about how it works helps-- in my day tpo day life, I generally haven't needed to move like I do when climbing.

Even when I was 20 I couldn't pull 5.12. However, I've been able to successfully do harder "5.11" at my gym. I don't think that will translate to rocks... I could be way, way off base, but the 5.10s in my gym feel a lot like I remember the 5.8s I used to climb back in the day.

So I am super curious how this gym work will convert to climbing in the larger world. Ultimately my goal is to be able to do things like the casual route on the diamond, so I am not aiming to do super hard routes, just committed stuff that takes a lot of skills. I just got a rope and some draws, though, so I'll be seeing how the gym translates to actual rock over the next couple of weeks.
> Italy's relationship with science is mired in corruption

Not any more than any other countries. I've dealt with many people from all over Europe thanks to a particular project I was involved in, and bad behaviors were truly cross-country (misappropriation of results, pressure to change authorship, "games" to move funding to allies or away from enemies...).

EDIT: What I mean is not that everyone is bad, but that rather bad behaviors even in my country are in the median with the others.

As a disclaimer, I am a scientist that is still working in Italy.
A good fit would be firms that have a large proportion of their work in logistics or operations.

It can also come handy in exploratory analysis stage of data science, however your audience there will mostly be technical who already know SQL. But it doesn't hurt to have something that gets me away with SQL.
It's funny, at first, I misread that you wrote "I know which side I'd bet on." Which raises an interesting question. We know which side we'd probably be on, that's the rationalist speaking. Which side would we bet on though? Specifically, which side does the realist bet on winning in both the short and long run?
My personal experience (used Angular JS and EmberJS, before React) -- AngularJS (like Ember) required a lot of Angular _specific_ understanding to use properly, and (_unlike_ Ember) some of those had significant performance impacts. When I switched to React, i felt like there were 3 or 4 API's I needed to understand, and that the escape hatch was easily reachable at all times. There were numerous features I extended deadlines for in Ember and Angular where I would say to my teamates: "I could solve this with Javascript, but how do you handle this in Angular?". Some people are ok with that tradeoff, but both sides feel relatively strongly about that particular choice.
cool :) learning more about low level codes, and everyone tells me never to assume anything about a booting system ,but i suppose DOS will offer a more stable environment for programs to start then 'any x86_^64 hardware' :D thanks for clearing that up! it's a simple program but it sure shows that you can already do a lot with just a few bytes =]
The question is whether it's recognizable as assembly at all rather than which specific flavor. I think it's correct that all assembly flavors tend to look very similar to each & very dissimilar from any language.

I think the author has a good grasp of the situation that is more important than the average person understands. Murdoch knows his empire is waning and is attempting to ingratiate himself to government officials by becoming an unofficial mouthpiece of several conservative governments. His coup d'etat would be if he is able to turn that relationship official in some regions, pass laws to make his content mandatory to publish, them extract a link tax from the distributors. An irony of ironies considering he will build that on the back of ideogolgy that fundamentally criticizes this strategy.

Note: An exceptionally well written analysis that shows the author has a good understanding of both product and business motivations. It is so rare to see writing like this in the era of outrage journalism.
Sounds insanely boring. All the people interviewed come off as misanthropes.
Let's assume I'm using Python 3.6. All my calls to os.urandom (such as uuid.uuid4) can block if my system's entropy goes down.
Let's assume as an attacker, I can reduce the system's entropy up to making all calls to e.g. uuid.uuid4 blocking, potentially making my Python blocking everythime.
We have quarterly meetings with everyone in person and this always happens.
Yeah because that's so easy to just grab another job.

I totally agree with the parent poster - keep personal life personal. I never mention anything personal to anyone at work.

The tower is amazing, been there in the past; but not on the top of it.
The main problem with frameworks isn't the frameworks but the MBA's who finished reading "Lean In", congratulated themselves for finally finishing a whole chapter book, and set out to "conquer the world" under the assumption that developing software is trivial, and the fact that it's not done yet is because the programmers are lazy and stupid and aren't using the right frameworks, googled "good web frameworks" and forwarded the first link to the engineering organization with the title "FYI".
I really like Hacker News, and I usually read my tech-related news here first. Farming is kind of the family business, and I love it.

I am also a physicist by training, and thus my interest in technology in general. Agriculture is becoming increasingly technological, and everything from farming gadgets to John Deere tractors hacking has come up many times. There are even some Plasma Physics applications to agriculture, so the interdisciplinarity never ends!

The "because it's interesting" is also an accurate answer!

This is also a possibility. Again, the only thing I am sure of is my inability to assign probabilities any more accurately than the most naïve way possible. Unfortunately if the problem is with the supply, no amount of money will prevent caloric deficiency — rationing might be sufficient, don’t know, devil in the details as well as the broad type of outcome.

From Wikipedia:

>> The construction of new paternosters is no longer allowed in many countries because of the high risk of accident for people who cannot use the lift properly. In 2012, an 81-year-old man was killed when he fell into the shaft of a paternoster in the Dutch city of The Hague. Elderly people, disabled people, and children are the most in danger of being crushed or losing a limb.

Generally if a country bans it due to safety, it could be pretty terrifying to use it.

There's a lot of gradient to be found between those poles.

If your CEO had a private office with a closable door, it would have been a lot easier to conceal the urgency of the "money" calls and conversations.

I think your experiences may have had more to do with the openness and transparency of the CEO to the line employees, rather than a matter of mere proximity. It's certainly easier to hide things from employees when they aren't all in the same room, but if the execs decide to keep bad news from you so you'll keep working instead of jumping ship, it's not going to matter where you sit.

Personally, I'd rather not have to deal with the pressure of keeping the whole company afloat, rather than staying on my oar and pulling on the drumbeat. We divide labors and trade different areas of expertise to be more efficient economically.

Were I sitting 5 feet from the CEO with the knowledge the company is in the tank, I would look at my ownership stake in it, likely find that it was worthless even if I busted my ass to turn things around, and would then put all my extra effort into shopping my resume out to companies with more runway--after hours, keeping it secret. If things are that dire, my loyalty can only be secured with ownership, not promises and dreams. At that point, everyone still left hanging on might as well be co-founders, because the originals couldn't pull it out themselves.
Fair enough - I meant was the CEO in an office with others, or was everyone distributed. I find that when it's "a few folks are remote" vs. "everyone is remote" (even culturally) this makes a big difference in how context is provided to an organization.
I was trying to understand how this was so much efficient and how did he manage to generate this will so little code. Where was his query retrievals ? Where did those classes magically appear. How did he retrieve the data so fast.

Then i read the first line, he is the CTO of Speedment.

So he had to add maven dependency to his project generate ton of code, to create his objects, retrieve all them and do the computation in the Speedment optimized functions.

So with his goal to use as less code as possible, he had to add third party library that added tons of code that he did not count in the lines of code that was written.

Seems a bit like self promotion and unfair to be honest.
This is currently the main impediment to a remote (distributed) organization I'm sure. I'm however also convinced it's a problem that will eventually be overcome, as savings/benefits of a distributed organization become evident while broadband infrastructure continues to penetrate the remotest (and cheapest) of places, and as new generations becomes accustomed to it. FWIW.
Thanks ujwalsri. I am looking for some data scientists to try this out. will try in logistics space and take their feedback.
It is hard to define what "ordering of memory operations" actually means if there is no memory model that takes multi-threading into account. Most styles of formal semantics will allow operations to be reordered as long as the final state is the same.
Agreed - that fits squarely under my definition of "data". If you have ten years worth of behaviors before anyone realizes it's valuable, that's quite a lead.

Local and major news sites alike, are cesspoools of intrusive advertising and tracking. They’re so poorly built, with so much advertising, that they hardly even function any longer. Even if Google links to a news site, I won’t click. It’s probably 30 secs for my new iPhone to partially fail loading, abruptly reload, and then auto play video I didn’t ask for... while covering the article with more ads that I have to click to dismiss.

Reading about the latest headlines is like sitting in a timeshare presentation, only it drains my phone battery and crashes my browser.

It’s a shame that the media is so bad at producing media. The quality is down, the delivery is terrible, and they want more money.

Google provides a lot of traffic to the websites operated by the free and independent press. If they don't manage to monetize that traffic sufficiently then that's their problem. Google obeys robots.txt, if they don't want to be indexed it's easy to achieve this.

I really don't understand why Google should pay for what they do.
The sitting desks are overrated. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that sitting desks improve health. Sitting desks are a ploy by chair manufacturing industry to make you buy expensive chairs even though all experts agree that sitting does not replace exercise.

Article [3] is pretty terrible, he doesn't make very many coherent arguments. IQ is subject to the same mixing, complex influences, mutations and trade-offs as other heritable traits (such as physical strength and lifespan, which also have no immediately obvious downsides), and writing a long article doesn't invalidate that. For example, this line is utter stupidity:

> This constant churn of genetic variation works against any long-term rise or fall in intelligence.

Waiting 5h has EXACTLY the same effect. The difference is that in one situation, he will make 10x more profit out of it and will be able to ride the hard months later on.
There is some evidence[0], but people expect magic bullets, when the reality is that small gains here and there are useful. The only magic bullets I've found are cutting out refined sugar and heart pumping exercise at least 15 minutes a day, and ideally an hour.

If it matters, my back pain largely went away when I switched to working while standing for three or four hours a day.

I feel like the author here is a bit naive of the salaries out here. They seem to think directors and VPs make 125k when a large firm would be offering 1-2m total comp in the Bay Area for those positions. More than enough to live very well even I’m SF. A junior engineer is offered the 125k quoted for comparison in the article.
They can be. But here's the problem:

You have a GPO that turns on command and ps logging. Ok, so if you type those commands, you alert script logging engines.

And then you search how to find the DC: https://serverfault.com/questions/78089/find-name-of-active-...

It's all PS or cmd. Trapped.

You might find the DC listed in the registry if you look for key "DCname". However again, that's another thing you'd use app whitelisting for, and catch every invocation of regedit. A lot of unattended driveby attacks attempt to do bad things here, so you catch/trap them.

Again, dead end.

So, I'd love to see a good walkthrough how to find the DC if these avenues don't work.

It's impossible to be an alive human and don't have any contradiction. To have a couple of contradictions is a show of a reasonable willingness to compromise rather than a complete dismissal of a lifestyle choice calling or calling it hypocritical.

Since I sometimes have to drive my car I won't ever ride my bike.
Immunotherapy is a fantastic promise, and really I think research is not being fully supported by governments.

When my mom died of cancer, it always seemed the miracle cure was just a year away. Several years later, it still does.

I know that the clinical studies are critical to the advancement of cancer treatment, but the way studies are sold with an unspoken but really nonexistent chance of helping people that are going to die is a bit unseemly.

As is the standard by which Keytruda and Opdivo use to get their medicare $$$$: just add three months of life. The reward metric is skewed, and the goal is pathetic, given that immunotherapy fundamentally promises a cure, not just remission: the body hunts and kills the cancer on a level that even chemo cannot do.

Substantial progress on life extension cannot really be done without solving cancer as well.
