Space Shuttle is able to spend prolonged time in space and back when it was being developed and build russians had no idea how it is going to be used. So they had to prepare their response because in the worst case they could be left with a flying nuclear strike capable of delivering the payload at almost any time.

Remember, when you are dealing with foreign power that you fight tooth and nail the worst case is the only thing that matters and you have to be prepared for it. You don't say "let's see what those pesky Americans will do with their new shiny toy", you say "Sasha, we need to be prepared or we are screwed".

Also, do you remember there was couple of those built from the start and there was supposed to be many, many more. That's a serious threat if your enemy has history of using that kind of projects for DoD purposes, you know DoD is engaged and you have no idea what is the real intended purpose.
Much like @muzani below, I've tried to apply checklists at much as possible after reading The Checklist Manifesto. It's a solid book with actionable advice and examples.

For business, I have multiple SOPs, which are all effectively checklists:

* My daily marketing routine, with what to do and links directly to where I need to go.

* Monthly invoicing procedures.

* How to perform my roadmapping service (send this, update that, schedule this, etc.)

* Every README I write for dev projects will include a checklist of deployment procedures and how to update critical things.

I'll also occasionally write down a physical "ToDo" list, which ends up being a checklist that I just go down. This is more for reducing executive function in the mornings, and making sure I don't forget anything.

For my personal life, I don't operate off of a specific checklist day to day. Instead, I have an alarm app with absolutely everything I need to do each day, and when it needs to be done. I also rely on my Google Calendar for reminders.

Ultimately, knowing what to do is important, but knowing when to do it is also important.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what point you're trying to make here.

The comment by blibble that you replied to was about a question of sovereignty, and both the summary of why the ERG don't like the proposed WA and the likely consequences of that seem reasonably accurate to me.

You seem to have introduced first the GFA and then the IRA into the discussion, but without explaining why they were relevant to the original point. Can you clarify what argument you are trying to make here?
Psychology actually says this is because you're telling your brain that this simple pain should be handled by the meds you're taking so your brain considers that to be an error.
This sentence threw me off too. I would have expected the author to have budgeted these living expenses prior to doing this... maybe "hidden" is just a bad word choice.
Howdy from across the pond! To be honest, I have almost no experience forecasting for Europe so sadly I cant help too much with the specifics. You are right predicting rainfall at small scale is very hard.

I know that here in the midwest, we never have any days where the forecast at 5am says 'all sunny and zero chance of rain', and then randomly a huge thunderstorm pops up. The atmopshere just doesnt work that way. People get upset about probabilities of rainfall and all that. Just think of the model perspective. The model sees square grid cells that are many KM apart. If the storm shifts from one grid cell to the next one, not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. However if you live in that grid cell, your forecast just changed from getting dumped on to clear skies (or vice versa).

Again, HN software mindlessly strips the title. Here it's not just "How" (debatable), but also "10", which is useful information, and would have survived in another position in the title.
I'm sympathetic to his goal because I have similar aspirations to have more freedom.

Don't all those apps just get their data ultimately from the NWS?
I bought the app because of its hyperlocal forecasting, but it's been known to predict precipitation where there's none, and vice versa.

I wonder if it does better in some geographies than others (e.g. high pressure system areas where things are more stable)

I get ~5 hours which is beyond more than enough for my needs. I also keep power adapters. Honestly, I've never understood the obsession with long battery life on a laptop. It's significantly lighter to carry the adapter (super light on a surface) than have an extended battery, and either way you have a knapsack/laptop bag.

Also - other than this one coffee shop I'm not a fan of, there's always power nearby.

I think you might find it difficult to get feedback when you require registering to a mailing list to test your product.
A piece of valuable advice I recieved - ignore what others think of you.

Instead, focus on becoming strong in what you believe, and why. Firmly held beliefs that are easily changed is a benchmark of innovation.

I don't care what anyone thinks except my customers. No one with an opinion of my job title that I do or don't impress pays my bills. I pay my bills.

Embracing freedom in insignificance of a less than glamourized idea can free a person to explore more than they could ever have.

The secret is once we can lower our ego, or insecurity to let ourselves work hard to solve small problems, they naturally lead to conversations about larger problems.

Talent has to work hard, not make it look easy. Having talent doesn't mean it should be or look easy. Hard work and learning Discipline is never optional for anyone.

A simple idea often needs a lot of hard work that no one understands until they try it themselves.
Wikipedia has a good illustration showing the relation between precision & recall vs. false positives & false negatives:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_and_recall

Precision is what percent of the identified-positives are actually positives: true-positives / (true-positives + false-positives).

Recall is what percent of the actual-positives were identified as positive: true-positives / (true-positives + false-negatives).

These are useful summary stats over the true-false/positive-negative matrix because, to quote the wikipedia: "In simple terms, high precision means that an algorithm returned substantially more relevant results than irrelevant ones, while high recall means that an algorithm returned most of the relevant results."
For whatever little my opinion is worth, my view is that technical skills are a "use it or lose it" kind of thing. That goes double for web development, which is what most bootcamps seem to cover, since they tend to focus on current frameworks and libraries rather than fundamentals and those things churn extremely quickly. It won't hurt you but, unless you have much better memory retention than most people, it may not benefit you all that much either.

You can follow these journalists directly on Twitter and see that they have amazing bias that they are not ashamed about promoting. After all, the NYT hired someone who has hundreds of anti-white, anti-male tweets to be on their editorial board and to act as their head technology editor.

Whatever they learned in school is taking back seat to pushing an agenda.
I doubt there are many countries with more than two or three competing networks. There may be a few more resellers, or even several dozens. But it’s just uneconomical to build the hardware five times over.

In any case, a FTA is not going to change it.
Laughably you are posting this opinion here?

Its not for YOU (or your ilk) to pick winners in the "best genes" debate. What you deem to be "good genes" is a garbage hypothesis based on your own personal outlook and bias. Your own personal outlook and bias is not how nature works now should it. (Luckily for those who may not meet your genetic standards)

I think the bigger debate is why you care about eugenics and don't have the courage to just say what you really feel, instead of dressing it up like failed Nazi policy is what America and the west needs right now. (if they could just man up and implement a eugenics policy to save us all)

It comes down to whether your ambition is to do something you like/interests you or something that you're doing solely to impress people that ask about what you do for a living.
Which makes sense, seeing as they use account data and other heuristics to determine if you're a bot or not. The streetsigns are their fallback for when they don't have enough data.
> setting up publishing and formatting abilities way beyond the average cookie cutter CMS. Investing in their own production processes and technology...

I need to point out that the NYT is doing this. They probably have one of the more advanced CMS setups and their tech team puts out some really interesting things as well.

As to your other point, I want to see good, factual, long form content, but a lot of people will not read that. They only want the headline and bullet points. So newspapers need to adapt to that and ensure the main facts are presented right up front, but then have the detail and back story for those that want to do a deep dive.
I mean when you look at it purely from a "are we all demonstrably better off in the EU" perspective then sure the UK has benefitted from membership.

If however you look at it from the point of view of "I hate people who look or speak different" the it's a different and frankly more miserable situation.

I think the person you were replying to was of the latter persuasion.
They have an undeletion button (and they send you a notice about bulk deletions). They also retain and let you recover accidentally deleted files for 30 days. Without more detail it's hard to find these claims credible.
Yeah that really depends on where/what you are doing. I spend a large amount of time in airplanes, a lot of which (as I don't fly business) have no charging sockets. Then in places where I go, for instance in HK, it is actually really rare to find sockets in coffee shops or bars.
I certainly like the idea of not having to rely on Google Voice for things like this.... though I certainly like Google Voice's pricing better. How many other competitors are in this space?

Of course—but the issue at hand is that or present situation is more complex. Today, a person’s success (because our culture has been reduced to basically only valuing popularity (visibility) and wealth and not intelligence or moral rectitude) tends to grant them degrees of social immunity and prevent the appropriate application of the law. People have begun realizing this. This realization causes them to strike at the defense these artists have—namely, their popularity via their distribution. That’s why people call for censure and put pressure on distributors. The révocation of works is not some abstract association between morals and the value of artworks as such—it is the concrete fallout of our particular situation and the realization that in our particular society wide distribution grants you some form of power that plenty of assholes have used to abuse other human beings and skirt the legal repercussions.

Shakespeare might have been a douche. He might’ve used his success in the theatre as an effective means to abuse others and get away with it. We don’t know. What we do know is that that does happen in our society—and it is a social dynamic we ought to change. This inaccessibilité of some works is a consequence. I doubt it will last indefinitely. I don’t think anyone is actually making the straw man argument Shriver is attacking on the article—people aren’t interested in saying there’s some innate connection between the moral quality of artists and the quality of their work—they’re realizing the power of popularity and attempting to bring justice to those who have abuséd that power.
Clearly that person has some fears or has had some troubling experiences, and it's not helpful or kind to be provocative.

And how do you know throawaysea isn't speaking from the same or similar position? minikites made an unfair assumption about their character and presumably their life status, I'd say that's probably more inflammatory and infinitely less helpful to this discussion than making direct, if dissenting statements about the validity or physical violence in response to speech, or vice versa-as topics being presently discussed in the thread, and it is CERTAINLY not helpful or kind to make speculative suggestions about someone's personal physical appearance which has no place in on this message board.

I understand and appreciate that passion can emerge in this discussion, and the sub-thread we're having between us right now, but I don't find it any more helpful to respond the way minikites did to throwawaysea if we're going to warn people about helpful, kind, or conversely provocative responses.
The EU has no incentive for a pissed off UK hanging on the basis of a temporary compromise.

It’s only the ERG’s inflated sense of England’s greatness that makes it hard for them to comprehend that the EU actually has bigger goals than just attaching itself to the UK.

This misunderstanding has led Brexiters to be consistently wrong in their analyses and predictions throughout this process. Right from easiest deal in history, to having your cake and eating it too, to wondering why doesn’t the Republic of Ireland just subjugate itself to the UK and give up their independence.
Your last statement is the so true. An amateur forecaster can spend ten minutes looking at the some big picture (synoptic scale) weather and know regional trends (this part of country is dry, these guys are wet, humid etc). This would be a pressure & wind map, showing location of high/lows, maybe some 850mb moisture charts too... But you are painting broad strokes. All of these dumbos on HN want to know exactly when the rain is going to hit your exact location, or you have to be within 3 degrees C modeling the surface temperature of my street so i can either ride my bike or not. We just cant do that with the current science & computational landscape!

After you have the synoptic scale picture, then you zoom in on your target area and get specific if you want to. This local expertise is where you NWS office comes into play. You want the local forecast from these guys!
In the UK it would certainly be _annoyingly_ expensive, given I'm calling because I want to stop spending money on whatever. I'd expect a connection fee + ~£1/min + rate they charge an American caller, and you know you're going to be kept on hold for ages.

It's bad enough calling to complain/cancel a local company - I've paid several pounds a time; I certainly avoid it if at all possible, and would more so with an overseas company.
I'll spell it out:

He mentioned a not-further-defined mechanism for the EU to keep unlimited control over the UK.

And I clarified that this mechanism wasn't an evil plan by the EU, but instead helping the UK to meet its international obligations.
Actively having to take extra steps to just log out of any of their services is the biggest little deception. Once they changed their login screen (cannot even remember when) you had to click multiple extra times to remove an account explicitly or you were still tracked/logged in/Google was aware of you. I started deleting history in Fx whenever the browser is closed which helps with this but I have windows/tabs open for weeks for a reason and can't always close the browser. I've just some to accept the extra steps it takes to actually logout though it pisses me off slightly each time I do it.

I've taken no steps to confirm they are actively getting info from my browser if I don't remove my account or if they are not if I do because I have turned off as much account data tracking/opted out of as much as I could for my Google account. But logging out of YouTube, which gives you no indication that you are actively logged in in the active browser window, and then going to mail.google.com will show you that Google is still aware of your account. Bullshit.
The premise was great - given that it's prohibited to take unbiased photojournalism in North Korea, the idea of getting a firsthand account from a graphic novelist and artist instead is an amazing idea! It could have been a great chance to show stories about Pyongyang, including accounts by people living there, that otherwise are literally impossible to show.

Unfortunately the book was terrible. Deslisle was so condescending and disrespectful to the people he was covering that it was painful to read. And he clearly had no concept of how to broach, well, journalism. For example, there's one scene where he essentially interrogates a woman who works for him about whether she really believes "all the propaganda". She nervously agrees, then politely excuses herself from the room, and the author uses this to "show" how brainwashed and uncritical these people are, not realizing that this is a completely inappropriate setting for the conversation given the power imbalance, and not bothering to consider that she may not have been telling him the truth.
Most founders I know have common shares. I wouldn't assume this answer.

Thanks for reading!

>I wouldn't really consider this hidden expense. It's just expense.

Maybe I should have worded it differently. I meant "hidden" in the sense that the chart I showed didn't reflect it because that only showed my business expenses.

I definitely did take into account my living expenses when I decided to quit my job.
