Hi, fellow here who also meets the ME/CFS criteria. These articles in which Sharpe and Weasley pop up are always very disturbing because they cry “ow, poor me, the big mean activists are attacking science!!” And it’s surprisingly effective as seen in this thread. People assume they’re doing real science, and the activists are of the bad type.

But in this case it’s Sharpe and is colleagues that aren’t doing real science, they’ve done an abortion of a study full of holes, and it’s been used to cause harm to very ill people. Causing denied disability, forced exercise (which is contraindicated for ME/CFS), and do on. Their study has been torn to shreds by other real scientists but they refused to accept it and they call this response activism.

Sadly as we see here lay people even in tech are all too eager to lap up their claims.

Prof. Bruce Levin at Columbia even started using Sharpes and co’s PACE trial as a teaching example of all the bad things you can do to make a wrong study. (His slides were online but I’m having trouble find them right now.)

Another accessible article on the subject:

Edit: here is Sharpes colleague Wesseley comparing people who refuse their PACE trial to climate change deniers and antivaxxers. Its entirely them who are refusing the science though because it shows they got it very wrong.

What does it mean for one company to “charge oneself”? If Apple Music isn’t a separate legal entity, it means invoicing oneself without any monetary transfer. Which is frankly just ledger masturbation.
Just another indication of Google trying to take over the world. There's a class of machines where Chrome can't run? We need to fix that, stat!
Ordinary people like green checkmarks. They don't need to know anything about public key encryption.

They would get accustomed to seeing green checkmarks on emails coming from big businesses, and then possibly notice their absence on phishing emails.
The article says so but I just tried to watch a video on iOS amazon video and it tells me to “Buy through the Amazon website or on your TV”. So I’m sure Spotify could say the same.

Could you give an example of this?
All of these are exactly why you would hire a good lawyer as a company and not just one that's going to use boilerplate simply because it's easy. The excuse that doing the right thing is hard has become far too worn out to be acceptable any longer. There's a difference between building a minimum viable product and a company as well known as grammarly. They are obviously at the point where boilerplate isn't going to cut it anymore and they should define the reasonable steps that they are taking to clear data from their systems.
Which still involves bundling a browser engine...
I have been contemplating adding a small DSL that compiles to Ansible, as i find writing Ansible config files very tedious and boring. As its just YAML, it should be quite easy to generate the output.

It boggles my mind that news reports feature the Dow so prominently given how much worse it is than the S&P 500. The Dow is pretty much unsuitable for any purpose save for historical comparisons dating back prior to the advent of the S&P 500.

I'm sorry but you really don't know what you are talking about. I think you have accumulated a lot of repeated information from blogs and shoddy websites instead of from science.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=calories+black+pep...

This is the only reference I see in pubmed for calories and black pepper and it says black pepper raises the resting metabolic rate, nothing about absorption. And it shows black pepper reducing obesity which would be the opposite of what you are describing.
No. As the author insightfully points out, it is the attitude displayed by many people who read the book, and reacted, yeah, it's racist and sexist, but it's pretty entertaining: 3/5 stars. The problem is casual acceptance.
That's because (at least in my case) starting something out of creative desire and finishing a project are stimulating different parts of the brain. First is that mind itch associated to problem solving, the second is the satisfaction of managing to walk the necessary path and do what had to be done. Those don't necessarily come together. What the average artists do is to follow their passion. Trying to "augment" that way into a more pragmatic one may lead to a loss of motivation. I've come to the conclusion that the best strategy is to tap into whatever gives me energy and let myself do as much as can be done "for free", then take that result and enter "the soldier mode" for the last part, which requires discipline. Ultimately, it boils down to considering the personal strengths and limitations when devising plans of actions, and pushing too many constraints for a first project may result in failure on exactly that planning.
Ask HN: Is the Resume Dead or Not?
I keep hearing on various sites about this document not being used. But in most business circles I am involved in (online and IRL), it is one of the primary things asked for from candidates. Short video interviews are a thing (especially in Asia) but still in infancy. No one has come up with a worthy alternative. What is your experience?

Full disclosure: I run a professional services firm offering English resume creation, LinkedIn profile creation/enhancement and interview coaching. Asking the question so I can gather research on new ways companies are seeking out candidates.
At least with facebook, we can count on them never deleting the photos for step-by-step DIY jobs, unlike multiple image hosts of the past.
Good luck! I remember there have periodically been posts on show HN for free logos/branding, perhaps some google-fu can get you in the right direction?
I honestly don't blame you for not knowing, but there's a certain amount of assumed knowledge for readers of this site.

This has already been touched on in the article and the comments. DKIM isn't any good when it tells you that the email from fraudulent mybankk.com is verified just because the phishers were clever enough to set up DKIM on their site.

Yes. If after that law passed, you still chose to donate, then it would show your intentions were to benefit your alma mater, and not to get your kids in.

These elite schools all have massive endowments, on top of the ridiculously inflated tuition they charge, so give me a break if you're trying to tell me they need these donations.

Otherwise, the idea of an elite school on your resume "signaling" something about you is meaningless. These schools are supposed to be bastions of knowledge and research, not expensive country clubs for rich kids to network with each other.
I'm not sure I'm following, so I want to make sure I've got this right. You are claiming that there are medical professionals are telling their patients that psychosomatic and mental illnesses are not real illnesses?
I think you misunderstood my point. I wasn't talking about non-dominant scientific opinion (which is probably because it isn't yet really clear, even tho this too is a slippery slope and "scientific consensus" can be easily (said to be) "broken" by the power of money, cf climate change, cigarettes not long ago, cocaine, opioids...). I was talking about non-dominant political opinions like abolishing private property or much less revolutionary getting back budget sovereignty in european countries, regulating the financial sector etc. (but also things like discrimination based on biological criteria, coercive birth control, military government and other, for "far-right/authoritarian"). Like another comment said, science may have some insight on these propositions, but ultimately none can be completely dismissed by scientific method only. So my point was that dominant thought (eg techno-scientifico-liberal) was trying to assert the opposite, posing science and reason as the ultimate mean of organizing society. And in the process conflating far-left's "not only science please" with far-right's "only science we like please" (and also funnily focusing the debate between the two so that the actual dominant position remains apparently moderate and impossible to attack because unnamed). ... got a bit carried away
I assume the older generation would not hesitate to pass on their spot information to their kids or grandkids for free. In a sense, they ARE gatekeeping a resource they probably don't even own. I personally don't think this is fair.
Microsoft only got in trouble because they originally sold Internet Explorer as a separate product in retail stores. Then when Netscape Navigator became popular, Microsoft responded by bundling IE into Windows for no additional charge. If MS had never released IE separately but instead just made it an OS feature from the start they would have had a more defensible position.

Uncle bob. This is five years ago, so if you have numbers that prove the opposite, now would be a good time to point that out.
Both are very usable. I set both up for people that I care enough about to get them away from Google.

Both are monitored and subject to government requests. I see this discussion a lot, but if you aren't running the mail server, you won't know when someone is reading your emails. It is on the end users to encrypt the payload (gpg, 7-zip, etc...)

Just my own opinion, as I have a deep rooted devious streak and worked for big brother. Don't trust a mail providers payload encryption. Do it yourself.

Both of them occasionally have hiccups on their web infrastructure according to my monitoring tools. Consider using an IMAPs client if you have concerns about availability.
Can you compare them after you split them ? Or are you saying you can't even compare them ?
Can you compare "black races" with "asian races" ?

It's been happening during initial ascent, which is a very busy time of flight with little margin for error. Even if you are aware of MCAS, it takes time to recover, and you might not have that much time to spare.
Google and its dominance in both AI and reach into everyone’s private lives really scares me.

There is a machine that can work totally offline, listen to audio, transcribe it, have a basic understanding and blast me with ads everywhere I go in the digital universe.

It can then psycologically slowly manipulate my behavior via ads making us buy/do things that we don’t even realize it.

It’s gonna be a scary world for my kids.
Ask HN: Is running a VM windows 10 on a Linux OS (Ubuntu) secure?
I know that windows has a lot of information that they collect in order to make your experience 'easier' such as assigning ID's in order to target ad's at you when you are browsing. Does the same apply if i run a VM of windows?
There is an "invitation" and even a "check-in" feature. You can also tag participants using your own custom fields. So, I'd say that's possible.
This is exactly why I moved from the iPhone to an Android phone about a year ago: I couldn't use Siri to play things on Spotify – that's pretty much the only thing that really bugged me about iOS.
An ethnic grouping (not necessarily skin color).

There was a movement in the 90s to get rid of the word "race" because scientists said all humans are basically the same. However, that movement has dwindled because we are discovering some important differences between ethnic groups. Such as:

* Blacks are more sensitive to salt

* Blacks are at a greater risk of glaucoma

* etc
I've had both Android and iPhones and honestly they're much the same. Google gives you a little more freedom in app development but you lose a lot of privacy. Neither company champions jailbreaking.

Ultimately there isn't a single consumer handset out there that has the same principles of "now you own the device it's yours to do with as you like". Consumer tech just doesn't operate that way any more.

Absolutely. Many students in my class were not going to get far / absolutely not going to be capable of working in the industry / struggling at even the basics .... and they eat up a ton of instructor time.

And just as bad they ate up a lot of my time on group projects. It's no fun working with people who aren't capable. I don't mean lesser skilled, there's always stuff for lesser skilled folks to do IMO. But if they can't do anything, not worth it.

Having said that, I was happy to help any fellow students when I was in class, but if it is clear they're not doing well / not getting the thing for the 8th time, I don't think it is worth anyone's time anymore, including the person not getting it.

I think there is a line between "slow" and "not gonna get it". I ran into a great deal of the "not gonna get it" and it burned a lot of my time / instructor time.

Also, to some extent "slow learner" and a bootcamp could be a mismatch from the start. I'm by no means "fast" but if i were slower the class maybe fundamentally wouldn't have been a good match for me. I did put in a lot of outside work to catch up at times, but that was on me.

There's a good hint at what's going on in a thread from yesterday about the 737MAX reports [1]:

> 1555013 is pretty damning in telling how the airlines treated the MAX as the same type as the 737-800:

> "I had my first flight on the Max [to] ZZZ1. We found out we were scheduled to fly the aircraft on the way to the airport in the limo. We had a little time [to] review the essentials in the car. Otherwise we would have walked onto the plane cold.My post flight evaluation is that we lacked the knowledge to operate the aircraft in all weather and aircraft states safely."

To provide a parallel to the software world, it kind of sounds like they released a "version 2.0" but called it "version 1.1", giving the sense this was a minor revision and anyone that already knows 1.0 will be fine.

Do you vendor your javascript libraries and host them from your own domain, or do you just hotlink them from random CDN's all around the internet like everyone else?

If you're hotlinking them, I don't trust you.

How can they insist anything at all about pricing on another platforms? Even if somehow it was possible, what a about discounts; are you saying app sellers cannot have platform specific discounts? What about region sensitive pricing (I know about it on Steam where the same item is much cheaper in Bangladesh than it is in the USA, no reson why Play Store can't do it).
> Who cares if you can't export your playlists.

Many people spend lots of time carefully creating playlists, consider them theirs, and would like to bring them with if and when they switch vendors.

> Why should Spotify go out of their way to make it easier for me to switch off of their platform.

The problem is that (allegedly) Spotify was fine with this, and then they weren't. Yes, everyone should know that everyone dependent on a platform is subject to their whims. However, it's still possible to find empathy with the author.
I've found the opposite to be true. Several lawyers I've worked with have asked to see what I've started with, perhaps because they're used to people grabbing stuff off the internet. I really like this idea because the hard part in my mind is the negotiation with the other party, in part because it inevitably becomes more complex as you go. Having something to start with and iterate on is great. At the end, as long as it's a relatively simple matter, having a lawyer review it is probably going to be lots cheaper.

One thought I had for a future version -- why not let both parties access the document on the site and build it together? That's something I'd definitely pay for.
It may not be incompatible per-se, but it does create a perverse incentive to make the open version of the product harder to work with.
I don't know of any. I asked about it but obviously they don't like to talk about it so you never get a straight answer.
Ignition is very tightly coupled to the rest of V8, starting with that fact that it uses inline caches and the object model to maintain performance, and finishing with it itself being written in "CSA", which is an assembler DSL that is passed through the TurboFan (optimizing compiler) backend to generate the machine code for the bytecode handlers (this has the interesting side-effect that porting V8 to a new platform requires porting the optimizing compiler). There's not really much that can be split off.

Of course the entropy also only rises necessarily in the statistical average - which is quite strong for any system with a large amount of object.
You _might_ have an argument here: "The other common category is the various rules around the preference of a company's other product lines over competitors". We'll see what the courts decide
Why do you think that "iOS is still much more secure"? The fact it's a closed source system means only we are not aware of many potential security risks. Apple has really bad reputation because of serious security bugs discovered in Mac OS recently. It might be similar with iOS devices.

IQ itself is not even close to science in the sense of physics, chemistry, or even biology.

Psychology as a whole is disreputable, literally half its studies fail to replicate. You might as well flip a coin.

Sure, IQ is the best that we have. But it's terrible.
Until watchos 5, 3rd party apps couldn’t do lte streaming. That said, lte was new in watchos 4, the tslk was that apple wanted to initially restrict it for battery life reasons.

Spotify could have made a watch app that provided controls and had offline somgs. They didn’t, and kept shutting down spps that did, or buying them and shutting them. This was a major sore point against spotify on the apple watch subreddit. Even now they’re dragging their feet, iirc.
This is amazing, just what we've been looking after to setup for a local communal.

Can this handle multiple organizations in the same installation? (Basically giving user access to organization to handle their own events)
> vendors should be prevented from shipping an App Store with their OS

The problem here isn't the quality of the App Store. The problem is that Spotify has no alternative.

Apple is a hardware developer, a software developer, and a software retailer. The problem is how tightly coupled those three roles are on the iPhone.

You can't run iOS on other hardware.
You can't run another OS on the iPhone.
You can't install apps on iOS except from the App Store.
You can't use the App Store on other OSes.

Those are the underlying problems.

Users can't use part of the ecosystem. They have to invest in the whole thing, giving Apple more control and reducing consumer mobility.
Note that the "existing" baseline compiler is now removed, and entirely replaced by the interpreter.

Do you need to understand any of that for SSL on the Web? What the person is proposing is comparable (albeit only in one direction).

The user doesn't need to understand any of this. The user does not need to sign his emails. He just needs a mail software that can handle signatures from well known organizations, and can warn you when the signature doesn't match. Just like my browser puts a green or red symbol when there's a problem with the certificate.

Everything you list is mostly orthogonal to the submission.

I can understand why so many chronic fatigue patients are reacting this way. My doctor once told me that during his medical training, he was taught that people claiming to be suffering from this are bonkers and must be treated as if they are psychotic.

Nowadays, the evidence is stacking up that there are metabolic, viral, and neurological factors involved, and while all of these can effect alertness, they are not ever dealt with via willpower.

The patients who have been royally insulted are the ones likely reacting this way. Whether or not the physician or scientist on the receiving end is deserving of the ridicule is case specific.
This is interesting. Do I have to compile it myself or do you make it available somewhere?
