Because the onset and decline of my symptoms all map directly to my experience of trauma and the process of trauma identification and resolution.

Here’s something for you to think about, as I think there’s a flaw in your question: do you think the onset of my symptoms was “natural”, just as the recovery was “natural”?

I believe in causality, and I can comfortably accept that chronic illness is a natural consequence of chronic emotional trauma.

Also, there’s plenty of scientific theory and research findings linking stress/trauma with physiological conditions like inflammation, immune weakness, digestion etc, which aligns with my experience.

But again, causality is the key. Illness doesn’t happen without a cause, and in my case, trauma was the most plausible cause, given that my experience of illness maps directly to my experience of carrying unresolved trauma, and no other cause is apparent.
I was interested in this one or a similar model (sq20) to be used as a dash cam with external supply as the internal cell doesn't last much. Can it be configured to connect to a wireless network and stream the video to a standard encoder/player on given address? I would use it to stream to a small NAS in order not to destroy the flash doing continuous recording. Hopefully it doesn't require a smartphone and a proprietary app to connect to its stream.

Side note, but I've been seeing this propaganda pop up the past few weeks all over, and now I'm starting to see it come from people I don't think are spreading propaganda, like yourself.

The Nazis were no socialists. Socialism isn't part of naziism. Yes it was in their name, but republic is in China's official name, and north korea is know as the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea. We wouldn't claim either country is a democracy.

By throwing in Nazis and socialism in the same pot, you are equating those two ideas in people's minds when they are absolutely not

I think a fair reading of my previous comment will reveal that I was trying to avoid engaging on the possible harm of his policies. That is not the same as absolving him. Instead, it is saying that you can evaluate his point independently of that question.

The subway hasn't been "just fine" for the past 100 years. Up until the '80s disinvestment was the norm, to the point where pieces of elevated track were literally falling on people on the streets below. It takes a long time to correct 50+ years of deferred maintenance, and we're not out of the woods yet.

Fewer miles of track is a legacy of that time period, as subway replacements for demolished elevated lines never came, and then elevated lines had to be demolished because they were a safety hazard.

As far as construction costs go, the problem is actually that the MTA is not involved in construction union negotiations at all, and the firms are more than happy to oblige the unions and pass on the cost to their captive consumer. The barrier to entry for new firms is quite high due to byzantine NYS bidding rules as a result of '20s era reform, and even if you could have a new firm start up they'd be hiring from the same pool of workers; it's not as if specialized construction workers can be hired on visa.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/28/nyregion/new-york-subway-...

> At the heart of the issue is the obscure way that construction costs are set in New York. Worker wages and labor conditions are determined through negotiations between the unions and the companies, none of whom have any incentive to control costs. The transit authority has made no attempt to intervene to contain the spending.
Supply and demand determine the value of everything and they are both additive. Each piece of supply tips the price scale lower, each piece of demand tips it higher. You have taken several key pieces off the scale, argued (unconvincingly) that each one individually cannot explain the scale's reading, and then (even more unconvincingly) claimed that the scale's reading is therefore completely arbitrary.

It isn't. You just don't seem to understand how it works.

Okay, so maybe you only design a module that can be retrofitted onto existing cars...

The cars have to receive power from someplace. Wherever they are being energized, there is by definition a complete circuit to all cars being powered on that line. Likewise, wherever the cars are, there is going to be a large and reasonably well-defined impedance discontinuity on the power rail. So, as a first attempt, I'd look at some sort of reflectometry scheme. Wind a few turns of wire around the cable that feeds the third rail, inject a pulse train with Gold codes or something similar that lends itself to autocorrelation methods, and listen for echoes.

This requires a grand total of $0 in hardware to be added to the cars. If it's not enough -- e.g., if the points raised in Anechoic's post render it impractical to rely on passive reflections -- then it should be possible to add a small amount of hardware at the cars to act as an active transponder, injecting its own pulse train in response to carrier-current signals from the distribution point.

So now we need to connect two wires at each car, and mount a small box with some duct tape^W^W milspec fasteners. Not exactly rocket surgery.
Call me a philistine, but you could mix high-proof liquor into whatever beverage you want. There's no reason why the active ingredient and the flavoring need to be correlated.
You're totally right! I always get them confused. So `∈` is `(elem)` and `⊆` is `(<=)`.

Thanks for pointing it out!

I built ScaleDynamix[1] with similar goals in mind. It connects to your AWS/GCP/Azure account via terraform and gives you a cpanel like interface to launch sites. You can also horizontally scale the stack either manually or automatically based on utilization. It's optimized for php, but you can run any other languages easily on it.

There is a free version available for non-commercial projects.

Interesting I did not know about that. Seems like it is part of the git suite, but usually packed separately (Fedora it is the git-gui package) and requires gitk.
In the US, UK, and other English-speaking countries, "m" (note lower case) is used for million.

From the Guardian style guide:

"million - in copy use m for sums of money, units or inanimate objects: £10m, 45m tonnes of coal, 30m doses of vaccine; but million for people or animals: 1 million people, 23 million rabbits, etc; use m in headlines"
You can ask your local library and perhaps they will buy a copy for you.
My doc said the same thing about time and scar tissue. He also mentioned movement helps things reabsorb. The injection on my spine was a way to ease the inflammation and give the body time to do it’s thing. It’s been 16 months since the original injury and my foot still tingles sometimes. The doc also said that tingling will be the last thing to go.

I’m fine with tingling forever as long as I can avoid that pain. It’s hard to describe nerve pain to people who haven’t had it. My ACL surgery was relatively painless compared to my sciatic leg pain.
I've been trying to get my son interested. He's in the same boat... Knows a little about conditionals and loops etc but hasn't caught it yet.

He wanted a RC car.. so I asked him to pick an old one apart. Taking parts from that, he built one without steering and just on off control. So now I've got an esp32 and a servo and got trying to make a steerable rover.. he's not going to get all the programming but he's definitely interested..
also the mechanical parts are also pretty interesting and approachable for him (we burnt a couple of hours trying to make a steering mechanism with LEGOs and didn't get anywhere)

I'll start him with prettifying the web page and adding bells and whistles (calibrating the servo, displaying connected/disconnected status etc and whatever catches his fancy)

Fair warning: requires a lot of time and patience.. also go slow (very hard for me to do).. but yeah, this is the time he's gotten the most interested

Hi — sorry, looks like I messed up the timezone details. In the case of daylight savings time (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time), SFO is 7 hours away from GMT. But LHR is still 8 timezones away from SFO. You're right that it shouldn't read `LHR/GMT`, but `LHR/BST`.
Neat! Happy it works on mobile web. FYI, there’s a short pause after getting a wrong answer that almost seems like the app is waiting for me to try again.

Or as a sibling comment said, just show the extra info right or wrong. Thanks for sharing!

Britain does not use "long" billions. Not since the 1970s or so. Now days, billion always means 1000 million.

I don't think the analogy of town planning fits well. I think it depends how the tasks are broken down by the team. What if the tasks are created in the breadth-first approach, so that the goal is not to "fully complete" each neighborhood, but to get each neighborhood in a working state, like the "organic" approach the author mentioned?

I have found success using this approach on my team. And yes, agreed that we should use other software like Docs or Sheets for the project homebase, and only limit JIRA to Epics/stories tied to labels for the projects.
On the to-do list. Thanks!
>I never understood this oddly American thing about “comfort” when undergoing medical procedures form dental procedures to surgery it seems like while the rest of the world is OK with some pain and discomfort in the US they’ll pump you up with pain killers and anestetics until you don’t feel a thing.

It was this oddly American thing about “comfort” that resulted in the invention of anesthesia for surgery in the United States. The reduction of patient discomfort has been one of the big themes of American medicine since.
So you've done research into this form of psychotherapy to confirm if it is the same as Dianetics? Or is this article the extent of your research?
How exactly do you think that would work? Do you think that if you put a giant tax on the fossil fuel industry everyone working in it would throw up their collective hands and take a pay cut? With the executives taking the lion's share because it's only fair?

Personally I think they would just pass the price along. We'd then be back to protests in the streets of France because none of those people are idiots. Plus the idea that raising the price of energy won't have knock on effects on the rest of the economy seems doubtful.
Well then bankruptcy it will have to be if it comes to this. A mass outbreak of civil disobedience is the only way to fight this.

>Not to mention you get access to pretty much every song you want for 10$ a month.

If you listen to mainstream shit where the artist does not have enough control of their work to opt out of the scam that is the pay scale for streaming music.

I have had to resort to ripping vinyl and CDs from my collection to get digital versions of tracks that Spotify, Apple Music, and Google Music do not have. If I had to do it all over again, I'd keep the vinyl and CDs in the box and just grab the music from somewhere like REDacted instead.
Oh I'm not meaning to say there are no office politics for remote positions, or for any office role. Just that as a remote employee, I deal LESS with that than on if I were on site. Constantly being a party to those things versus when "someone" specifically chooses to involve me, the remote employee. Being remote, I don't -have- to participate in those politics as a course of just doing my job daily. Whereas when I Was on-site, I seemed to have been pulled into it regardless.
Your position just confirms your position. It's circular and can not provide the slightest bit of evidence toward the efficacy of the procedure. Sorry.

Would you like to elaborate on what you consider inflation and deflation to be? Any currency can gain or lose value against other currencies regardless of the currency in circulation, which is different than comparing the proportion of bitcoin you have to the (eventually constant) number in circulation. The former is just being a currency, and the latter addresses its inflation (or deflation in this case).
Wow. Cultural differences get me downvoted.

All the forms in my country, especially the government ones, use 'gender' and not 'sex'. For me, when I see 'sex' on a form, it's jarring to say the least.

But fair use includes things like criticism and parody - the main reasons why I might want to publish an email I received from somebody.

Also, if someone tries to sue me for damages for publishing their copyrighted email, they're going to have a hard time convincing a jury that they suffered any losses: Why would an email they sent to me have commercial value as a publishable work? (That makes it different from a book.) And they're going to have a hard time convincing a judge not to throw out the lawsuit, since the lack of potential damages makes it clear that the lawsuit is simply being used to harass me.

There may be things that somebody sent me, such as confidential business information or confidential personal information that I probably shouldn't publish. If I published something like that, however, they probably would sue me for damages based on something other than their copyright of the words they sent me (e.g., invasion of privacy[1]).

But if someone just sent me an email raving at me for something I said on the web, I see no legal obstacle to publishing that to criticize it.

Of course, when in doubt, consult a lawyer (which I'm not).

I'm not sure that was de Gaulle's reason, unless you can cite some source.

This has stats on immigrants to France. As you can see, most are from Algeria, Europe, and Morroco. Further, it you investigate the sub saharan africa segment I'm quite sure you'll find it's almost exclusively from former French colonies.

The collapse of the Gaddafi regime certainly led to more migrant boats crossing, but the absolute numbers entering France are not high, and certainly not compared to other sources.

Oh, and the Algerians mostly came after the Algerian war. One of the biggest early groups were Algerians who had fought with the French army.

You appear to be very certain, but you don't seem to have any evidence to back up your views.
I'd say that widely accepted valuation models are probably a major contributing factor in the dramatic decline in prices...

I guess they could be the pickaxe salesman depending on how you frame it, but that's just who they are. I guess I'm bringing in actual PoW mining which the analogy has nothing to do with.

I don't think they are speculating though, they are simply doing what they do and have always done. Provide a means of exchange from national currency to digital assets. It is up to the people who build around these protocols to create more ways of utilizing these digital assets through services.

It's hard to say what's going on in this market but I don't think it's a bust. A lot of money went in really fast and then huge sell offs from Mt Gox recovered bitcoins. Bitcoin is still somewhat interconnected in price with most altcoins because of pairings, and any major selloffs seem to drag the whole market down. I think it will mature in time and more people will actually utilize cryptocurrency and not just buy it for speculative reasons. Value will be established over the next few years as practical use grows.

True, bleed-over is not "normal", but I'd bet it's common. It's a sign that you're not doing scrum "properly". My own elevator pitch for kanban to other teams still in the scrum world is: if you're not having problems, then don't switch, but if you're having problems (some of which include bleed-over, some of which include long meetings) give kanban a shot. Some teams have switched back after trying kanban, too, it's not for every team anymore than any other process or tool is.

You could also say to switch up what scrum means if you're having trouble -- to be honest I've never considered the idea of just ending the sprint early (and rescheduling the sprint planning meeting!), I'm skeptical than any of the "Certified Scrum Masters" I know have either... But it still can't be done if you are finished early but the rest of the team isn't. My team didn't really have a problem with taking on work assigned to someone else so long as that work wasn't started yet, but things get tricky when all the work assigned has been started by someone. A solution in that case does present itself besides just bringing in something new, it's the same solution as kanban when the buckets are full: join another developer on their story and pair (doesn't have to be "formal" pairing even) to get it done faster.

But you've highlighted another problem with the whole mess, that being ownership accountability. Lack of visibility outside of the standup meeting into what Dev B is working on when they're paring with Dev A (who is the sole "assigned dev" in the tracking system) is an obstacle to incentivizing pairing. Sometimes you need that visibility. On an old team I left because of terrible management, there were just two of us devs at one point. One sprint it turned out that my face was on the dev column for almost all the items, the sprint before it was my coworker's face, in reality we paired on almost everything. But that second week my manager (who never joined our standups) asked "What are your thoughts about Dev A's work performance? You seem to be doing everything right now." Management memory was sprint-to-sprint. This isn't a problem with scrum, of course, though it does enable that problem to surface where at least in a kanban style you'd have the giant column of closed things having a mix of faces.
