Not on brake rotors, no[1]. They are always from new - there's nothing to recondition on them, they're only suitable for melting down again. I'd think they would be prohibitively expensive to handle for the retail chain, given their low scrap value.

Still not resolving in a lot of places, also making your app not work (I’m in the UK).
Not a single thing about China is attractive to me. Not how you work, not your politics, not your view of what's important in life. We have nothing to learn from you and I hope we don't become more similar than we are now.

> Boeing issued a multi-operator message (MOM) explaining the MAX’s manoeuvring characteristics augmentation system (MCAS) “commands nose-down stabilizer” in certain flight profiles using “input data and other airplane systems.” MCAS is operated by the flight control computer and “activated without pilot input and only operates in manual, flaps-up flight,” and MCAS is not part of previous 737 designs.

> The Allied Pilots Association (APA) told American Airlines (AA) pilots in a message on its website.
“It is not in the AA 737 Flight Manual Part 2, nor is there a description in the Boeing FCOM. It will be soon.”

> A multi-page document issued by the airline’s flight operations department that highlights the differences between the MAX and 737 NG does not mention MCAS or any other changes to the auto-trim system.

> A multi-operator message (MOM) from Boeing on Nov. 6 cautioned that “an erroneous AOA” can trigger automatic nose-down pitch-trim.

There are lots on indications that at least in the Lion Air case it was not in manuals or communications to pilots.

You can not do this with Pihole, because Pihole can only block entire hosts/ip-adddresses (and not only specific scripts on a host.)

That's why you should keep using uBlock Origin/a browser content blocker, even if you use a Pihole.

> It is right about time that Western countries to come to realization that recycling need more smarts and efforts other than making it other people's problem.

This is not just a Western problem. A look at emissions and other pollutants show it is actually far less of an American problem and far more of an Eastern problem.
Reality: they were exactly right, because “we” isn’t Boeing, “we” is James McNerney, former CEO of Boeing. Between when the 737 MAX 8 entered production, and he retired as CEO, he was paid $80 million. You think he has to deal with any of these problems with the dead people and the grounded aircraft?
I don't consider this a fallacy, if you follow the whole libertarian idea of a person should be able to claim philosophical exemptions for their children shouldn't that immutable right to exemption also apply to everyone?

Agree, with one caveat: Very specific plastics can be recycled as well, but it requires source sorting by consumers and industry and that's just not gonna happen.

Disclaimer: Our field is extremely competitive (deep learning) and other labs may have better working styles depending on their lab size and member composition.

My lab's workload on average is 8 - 12 hours a day for 6-7 days a week, ramping up even more closer to deadlines. That being said, a lot of this time (50% or more) is for thinking and discussing. This schedule, while hard, seems to be effective for publishing in good conferences.
Revenue doesn’t really matter, it’s profit that matters. They can’t discount 50% because they couldn’t even make the planes for that.

While the goals are slightly different, I highly recommend reading[1] about the methods used by GCHQ's JTRIG unit (including the full Snowden document[2]). They are not really about specific metho9ds to manipulate groups of people, but the general ideas behind solving that type of problem.

A particularly important topic discussed in [2] is "Attention Management". The first step humans use to process sensory input is deciding which (small) part of that data is important. We end up blatantly ignoring[3] most sensory data, because our capacity for attention is surprisingly small and very easily manipulated[4] if you know how to flood someone's input buffers[5].

The more troubling problems start when it isn't a human deciding how to manipulate attention, but instead it's a bunch of machine learning trying to "optimize engagement" (attention).

From what I understand, successful professional athletes tend to train very hard during dedicated practice hours (something like 30 hours per week), but then have rich lives outside their training, get enough sleep every night, etc.

Trying to do more than 30 hours of intense creative work per week yields diminishing returns, while leading to worse and worse negative health effects as you increase hours. People working 60+ hours per week are wrecking themselves for bad results.

Safety isn’t as high a priority for military aircraft, except in that losing an aircraft is expensive. Military pilots know that they are expected to die for the mission if necessary.
A colleague came to Richter after a concert and asked him: "How could you play that passage, I practiced it for 100 times with no luck". Richter: "I practiced it 1000 times".
I recognize that this is anecdata but I worked together remotely with a engineers from the Shenzhen area a number of times, and they would have a 2 hour lunch plus a 2 hour afternoon nap (under their desks, on a couch, anywhere really) every day. Working from 9 to 9 sounds less heavy (and more fun!) that way.

Maybe I met some lucky few, but if my impression of Chinese tech working culture is accurate, it's less insane than popularly reported.
Same for me. I learnt to mix diverse amounts of the three light colors red, green and blue. You know you get yellow when you mix red and green, and orange if you have somewhat more red than green, and so on.
If half of the time is thinking, why do you need to be on the spot? Seems really counterproductive to me.

After 5 years of work, I finally decided to take the jump and live the dream of earning a Masters degree from a prestitious university in The Netherlands. Being a non-EU citizen I had shell euro 15000/year but it still seemed cheaper than US counterparts.

Couple months into the semester I realized the pressure kicking in my program. The planned 40 hour load required atleast 80 hours of work. I could sense stress and depression all around. None of my classmates seemed to have any weekends to travel around or play a sport. Friends needed smoke breaks every couple hours during group assignments. The fact that the program didn't offer the quality that one would expect made matters worse. I spent 6 months doing things that I did not enjoy. At the same time, my 5 years of work experience taught me enough to understand that what I was spending most of time on did not prepare me intellecually with regards to what to expect once I am back in the industry. The only preparation I was getting was the ability to absorb stress; and I was sucking at it. Dark thoughts started haunting me; I pushed through one semester and came back home to evaluate the ROI of this whole ordeal.

I quit after going back in order change my program to something better; but time to switch and forth coming costs weren't motivating enough.

UPDATE: I would honestly attribute most of the ordeal part to the program I selected. I looked forward to a couple professors to work with; both of them ended up either leaving the university or reducing their focus on my program. I saw students in other programs go along really well. At this point in academia I would consider it critical to visit the university personally (even if you are an international) to evaluate the environment you would be studying in and understand from fellow students how the program is being driven.
I made this as a rough clone of https://github.com/iSoron/uhabits, with a goal of having it be cross-platform (it's a PWA so you can use it like a native app on Android phones), and with cloud sync. (The uHabits app lets you export a backup, but doesn't sync habits to the cloud, which has led to me losing habit data in the past.

Would love to hear any feedback!

I have AF and once you're aware of it it's pretty easy to tell when your heart's "gone out". Quick check of pulse confirms it as you say.

The trouble is really when you're first getting to grips with it. That's the scary time.

Everyone's AF is somewhat different though I imagine.
Fully agree, but i think the crux is you cannot have an individual without a system.

Which i think the Right don't really understand. And of course the left speak as if the individual is theoretical when looking at the system.
I agree with the things you list but wow there's a lot to learn from the Chinese.

There's a NYT bestseller called "the subtle art of not giving a fuck". The Chinese, by and large, don't need this book because they already carefully allocate their fucks, and it's a natural thing for them to do (especially in the south, by my impression)

More anecdotally, I find Chinese engineers among the most joyful and laid back people to work together with. 10-10 Would Work With Again.

Also Chinese humor is splendid. Any joke that can get better by loudly appending "HAHAHAHAHA! ^_^" must be an excellent joke.
> From what I understand, successful professional athletes tend to train very hard during dedicated practice hours (something like 30 hours per week), but then have rich lives outside their training, get enough sleep every night, etc.

I train hundreds of professional athletes. The majority of them do not have rich lives outside of their training. Most of them have very unbalanced lives that center around their sport, training, and everything to do with it. Most relationships fail inside pro sports for several obvious reasons.

Most have some form of mental health issues.

We watch them on TV and we expect greatness, but as long as it is not us paying the cost to get there, we don't mind.

This implies that "GDP per capita" is something to optimize for. My guess is that China doesn't see it that way.
That's... not true by official statistics.

http://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/suicide-rate-by-c...

Japan and the United States are both quite a bit higher. Is it likely that China is fudging the numbers and it's higher than what they report? Yes. But neither Japan nor the US come off as looking good here.
Even more impressive reality:

Less than three years ago Boeing's stock was worth around 130 USD. Friday it was still 370 USD, almost 3 times more than that.

Less than three years ago its market capitalization was around 80 billion. Now (even after the grounding of 737 MAX) it's still around 240 billion. What happened in the last less than three years? At least, the first 737 MAX planes were delivered around two years ago.

Apparently Boeing had (before the crash) a backlog of 5000 orders for 737 MAX planes, worth 490 billion.

On Boeing's own site:

https://www.boeing.com/commercial/market/commercial-market-o...

"Commercial Market Outlook 2018-2037"

"Robust demand is expected the next 20 years as strong economic growth, growing middle classes,
increasing consumer spending on services, and evolving airline business models bring more value to passengers and support the long-term outlook. As a result, the industry will require
more than 42,000 new airplanes by 2037 with almost 74% in the single-aisle category."

Looking at all that it's even more obvious why there was such a reluctance to ground the 737 MAX in the US.
What is the periodic in this table? Which properties of the HTML tags repeat in every row?
> The whole 737 is preposterous and wouldn’t be legally certified if presented as a new airplane today.

In what way is it preposterous?
I agree. But when you are talking about Stanford you are really talking about the best of the best. Their performance curves don't match the rest of the population to start with.

For example, I am just watching highlights of the Indian Wells Tennis Tourney thats going on, and a 38 year old Roger Federer has managed to get to the finals. And in every interview with the rest of the competition, they all say he is just working harder than the rest of the field.
No, but thousands of friends and family members of those who lost their lives have to deal with that problem.
In my opinion the second reads better, because if you have multiple declarations (multiple rows) then they will all line up:

Tiger Woods: a golfer.
Jon Rahm: a golfer.
Bryson DeChambeau: a golfer.

vs

A golfer: Tiger Woods.
A golfer: Jon Rahm.
A golfer: Bryson DeChambeau.

This makes it easier to group up information when glancing at the code.

From the link:

Unwarranted demand:
A demand is unwarranted unless:
(a) that they had reasonable grounds for making the demand
AND
(b) that the use of menaces is a proper means of reinforcing the demand.

i.e. the use of "menaces" needs to be proper. In this case, their contract is the proper means of enforcement. Digging up additional "dirt" not covered/mentioned in the relationship would be considered improper, and is therefore blackmail.

Thanks for the reply. How much do the athletes you train practice?

Do you think the exclusive focus helps their performance at their sport?

Do you think competition selects for people with mental health problems, or causes mental health problems?

Is there a noticeable difference between athletes who burn out in a few years vs. the ones who have long careers?
In Norway as well, at least in academia - I remember seeing SUSE boxes in the bookstores at both the Norwegian University of Technology and Science and the University of Bergen - this would have been in 1996-1998 or so.

In addition to all of the container work we do, we also still maintain a distribution and do a tonne of upstream work. While people seem to have forgotten about the purpose of distributions with the whole container thing, they still provide a few things:

* Continued upstream development of core system software.

* A host system that is stable and up-to-date (which you need to run your container manager).

* Container images which have up-to-date software, timely security patches, and reasonable security policies.

Distributions are the only members of the ecosystem which actually solve these problems in any meaningful way. It's a shame that we seem to be boring (or even vestigial) at this point despite all of this new software still requiring our work in order to actually run.

I wonder what design choices were considered and rejected. Was there a missed option that would have been better? Numerous possibilities pop in to mind...

The rear landing gear could have been made to extend more, by telescoping or folding.

The rear landing gear could have been attached more outboard, letting it be longer without the wheels colliding in the middle. Perhaps something else would need to move a bit to make room.

The rear landing gear could have been stowed as the B52 bomber stows landing gear, asymmetrically with one going in front of the other. This would let it be taller since it would be able to cross over the midline of the aircraft.

An engine could be flatter if it had two turbines side by side. The cost of engine removal is still low since the aircraft still only has two engines to remove, and the pilot training is the same because there are still only two engines to control. Really, that isn't a quad-jet.

Letting the fan portion of the engine peek up over the wing is an interesting thought.

Ain't that the inconvenient truth? Countries with long working hours aren't filled with people with superhuman stamina and concentration. They just fill up the additional hours with a bunch of other stuff; in the western hemisphere, it's acting busy and spending hours on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.

I'd rather work in a place with "work-life balance" (whatever the hell that is these days, 8-6?) but such places are disappearing all over the planet. Even in Europe, work-life balance can be goddamn horrible in tech, especially if you work in a startup. Unpaid overtime is common, in a recent interview at a startup of 70 employees, I was told "our official working hours are 9am-6pm but... well, we're a startup, so you know... hint hint nudge nudge".

If what places like Blind are saying is true (that pay in the east is rising to SV-like levels), China and Asian countries with "long working hours" may be viable places to work in the future, since long hours are already a norm in America and becoming the new European standard too.
