It has nothing to do with power. Even cylindrical bodies produce some lift when their axis is not aligned with the airflow, and all engine nacelles do this. If they are forward of the CofG, this produces a pitch-up moment that increases with increasing angle of attack, and therefore reduces stability. The further forward they are, the more the leverage and the stronger the effect. With rear mounted engines, the effect produces a nose-down moment, which contributes to the longitudinal stability.

The problem with the "monopolizing a market" idea is the fact that "Apple devices" is not a meaningful market, and within the actual "smartphone" market Apple very clearly does not have a monopoly.
Why would this make someone want to participate in a class action? Seems like it would do the opposite. Who doesn't want to be a billionaire?
Its more common than that as it starts with mothers breastfeeding their kids. Other scientists argue Pedophilia and others are perfectly natural, you even see this behaviour in other animals, including castrated male dogs trying to copulate with younger dogs. For decades, the BBC hid the sexual habits of Bonobo monkeys from the wider public, they have sex with all ages of their species, something that was only known in small academic circles. Of course the accusation of pedophilia and other philia's is an excellent blackmail and extortion method most often used by security services of all people! Can you think of a better accusation to make where it can not be defended as it boils down to a historical event which is medically hard to prove and simply relies on the evidence of at least 2 people. Now why cant you make up a false accusation about a teacher who you didnt like and think about how it could be defended when you put yourself in either persons shoes.

After reading the below, at least you will learn why some men and women get so angry at mothers breastfeeding in public considering the sexual connotations.

Levin, Roy J. (May 2006), "The breast/nipple/areola complex and human sexuality". Sexual & Relationship Therapy. 21 (2):237–249.

p240-241 wrote:
Approximately 33 to 50% of mothers described breast feeding as an erotic experience, while some 25% expressed guilt because of the sexual excitement that they felt (von Sydow, 1999). In a few cases the arousal is strong enough to induce orgasm which causes some nursing mothers to abandon breast feeding because of the sexual stimulation (Dickinson, 1949, p. 67; Masters & Johnson, 1966, p. 162). In a questionnaire on orgasm and pregnancy published in a Dutch magazine for women, Gianotten (1988) asked ‘‘Did you experience, while breastfeeding, a sensation of sexual excitement’’, 34% (total n¼153) answered ‘‘Yes’’ and to the question ‘‘Did you experience, while breastfeeding, pleasurable contractions in the uterine region’’, 71% answered ‘‘Yes’’. Of these 153 women who had been breastfeeding who replied to the question ‘‘Did you experience, while breast feeding an orgasm (during or as the result of breastfeeding)’’, 12 (8%) answered ‘‘Yes’’. Ignorance about such normal physiological occurrences can sometimes create gross miscarriages of the law. According to Yalom (1997, p. 254), a mother in Syracuse, New York in 1992 had her two-year-old child taken away from her after admitting that she became aroused on nursing, the authorities claiming that she sexually abused the child. A judge found there was no case and after 8 months the child was returned to the custody not of her mother, but of her grandparents!

The First Amendment is so fundamental to my American understanding of liberty, that I'm dumfounded to learn that a developed country like France has a law that says it is illegal to write a paper summarizing someone's publicly expressed political views.

How different is their concept of liberty that they would even consider a law against compiling public facts?
oh it is "recyclable", just (for several materials) takes more energy to recycle it than toss it in a landfill. You get to feel good that cardboard gets a "new life", instead of a new one (which extracts more carbon from the atmosphere) being created, we can burn more CO2 to have a second truck travel down your street to pick up renewable cardboard and haul it around town till it eventually gets cleaned and processed (at the cost of even more energy).
There are plenty of tech roles where you don't have to be a superstar dev but can't still make out fine. Support is a good one - sneered at by many but actually incredibly important and can be really fulfilling in the right role (granted low level support roles can be horrendous). So many users get shit support that if you really put them first they will come to love you. There are also roles that combine support with a bit of sys admin, service engineer type roles. Can be well paid on the contract side of things.

If you are or can learn to be creative and enthusiastic and personable, presales can be fun. In most presales roles the emphasis is on broad rather than deep skills, so that might suit you. For me presales was brilliant because it forced me to confront my fear of public speaking.

Finally I've met loads of successful people in my career that cheerfully admit they couldn't hack the technology side of things. Chin up!
>In the 60s and 70s, the rebellion was not against the machine, it was for betterment.

The rebellion was very much against the machine, the establishment, the norms,etc.

It's very interesting that nowadays rebellious trends tend to feed the machine. You were spot on on your first line. Whatever captures any market and pays dividends is echoed right back, amplified by the machine (which takes the dividend). There is still great music being made, but it's harder to find (if not impossible) on mainstream channels.

Ask HN: What's my best option to get into the IT field with my BA degree?
I was considered a non-traditional college student when I started for my BA in Computer Information Systems when I was 25 years old. I graduated this past December (2018) at the age of 30.

Since then I have been actively applying for jobs in the IT field such as "Software Developer, IT Help Desk, Desktop Support, Programmer" etc. Some of them are mostly the same thing just different titles.

As of right now (May 2019) I have applied to at minimum 50 different jobs in the surrounding cities near me. The two largest cities near me are an hour away in opposite directions. I live in a relatively small town with no computing industry at all so the other two larger cities are my best bet.

Unfortunately, just about all of the 50 applications have been rejected due to lack of professional experience. No one seems to care about my personal experience even though I have it listed on my resume. I'm becoming frustrated because I have to start paying my student loan back in a couple months.

I'm married with kids, my wife has a good career in the next county over, and we own our home so I cannot relocate. I don't have a lot of free time to due to my part-time job to pay some small bills while my wife covers the rest.

We don't have a lot of free money so after looking at the cost of study materials and exam fees for certifications I have decided I'll have to wait to find a better job to save up some money.

As a side note one thing I've noticed is that not a lot of companies are posting "Entry-Level" positions for people like me to apply to. Most of the positions assume you already have some professional experience.

This all being said (sorry it's so long), what advice do you have to help me figure out how to get started?

The hiring bar at Amazon is high enough that anyone unhappy would have little trouble getting a job elsewhere. Plus, there's an internal policy that any dev in good standing is welcome to join any team that wants them. So most managers treat their devs very well.

I had a coworker join in January. Very talented, great to work with. Wasn't really into what we did. So he found a team doing what he was interested in and transferred last week. Sorely missed, but better to have him happy in the company than unhappy until he leaves.

The culture itself is something special. The leadership principles mean something here. For certain types (of which I am one) it really works well. My only displeasure with the culture is the times the company makes choices that seem to go against the LPs.
I don't think AR has flopped so far, but when it's used well it's not perceived as AR.

For example, my car has a rear camera, which overlays where you are going depending on the position of the steering wheel. This is reality augmented, but since it feels so natural, nobody thinks about this as AR.

At the ground floor of my former office was a cafe. It wasn't an old, established cultural icon like my local dumping spot, but it employed people who provided their goods and services. That was one year ago. It's been vacant since the rent was raised.

I work in a new building now, but I walk past the former store most days of the week. Through the wall of glass I could see people engage in their activities under the glow of a cliche Edison lightbulb arrangement. I would walk past and see the adjustments of aprons, the exchanges of cash and mugs of coffee, the hats and t-shirts hanging off slabs of wood pinned to the walls, and the sacks of coffee beans stored on top.

A dark and empty room sits behind the facade of LEDs that now occupy the glass. Advertisement.

I think you are conflating gentrification with access. My city has more people and a better public transportation system now. More people have access to the sidewalk in front of my old office where you could once purchase a decent cup of coffee. But what used to be a store, a small seedling of human existence, is now just a wall to display ads on.

> and did it specifically cause this cancer.

If I sit you down for 30 minutes on a drum of dangerous nuclear waste, and within a year, you develop prostate cancer, how would you ever be able to definitively prove that I caused that cancer?

It could have, after all, been a random mutation in your body - caused by a stray cosmic ray.

Cancer is a probabilistic outcome. It is impossible to prove that any one particular thing caused any one particular cancer.

Does that mean that I should not be liable?
Yeah, but if the primary objective is working, it might be worth optimizing the secondary objective as well.
Yes, if you change literally every single detail then it changes the outcome somewhat.
> 1) Using average income, a clearly bad statistic, can't be justified by saying you could not find a good statistic. Unless you use a good statistic, your argument isn't justified. (cue story of drunk looking for glasses under lamp post etc).

You're not responding to the complete argument. RCA has looked into finding median measure of income, and not found them relevant to the discussion because (as he says in the third point of the argument) the rich do subsidize health care for the poor.

> Also, if there's no measured difference in individual household income versus health care spending, well then maybe his pet theory comparing average household income and health care spending isn't very applicable either.

But again, mean income is relevant because the important thing is how much a society as a whole puts into the healthcare system. Average is meaningful when the rich subsidize the poor.

> 2) "RCA is saying that, as a country, the U.S. spends more on healthcare because we consume more health care than other countries."

> That argument is either wrong or tautological. The US spends more on health care for worse outcomes, as many studies have shown. If this person means we buy better outcomes, they are wrong. If they are saying we buy more stuff labeled health care, maybe true but that's because the system is bad, not good.

According to RCA, AIC isn't just correlated with spending, but also "the vast majority of socially relevant outcomes and their covariates." [1]

It is definitely illegal, but there's nothing stopping anyone from doing it. I'm not saying people should do that, just that they can and do, with little negative effects.

I also acknowledge that handing control to a modified computer is a little different than manually controlling a modified car, and it could have much more disastrous effects. But I don't think anyone will actually do that.

(As for when I did drive without brakes that one time, my car had a manual transmission and a fully-functioning hand brake, and I was in full control of the vehicle at all times. I drove slowly and carefully along back roads, and kept a 100 m gap ahead of me at all times. I was well-practiced at down-shifting to slow down, and used to regularly come to a complete stop from freeway speeds down the ramp without touching the brake pedal, just because I could. And "no brakes" is a slight exaggeration; I had some brakes, but there was a leak and I didn't want to use them unless I absolutely had to, and I didn't have to. Would I do it again? Probably not, but I was young and willing to take minor risks like that.)

No, it was based on two studies for glioma, including "the largest investigation so far of mobile phone use and brain tumours" with 2500 cases and 2500 controls, and those two studies plus a third for acoustic neuroma.

Still, as you say, the evidence was limited, which is exactly what the IARC said.

And they did not make a blanket statement for RF. They specifically and very clearly said the possible risk was cell phone use.

I think you're missing that we already have a profitable business model as an example: rental cars. If it were true that the costs you mention outweigh the potential per-vehicle revenue that can be obtained from renting out cars, Hertz, Enterprise, etc. would all be bankrupt. Obviously they are not, so that business model works.

You can think of Uber + autonomous as a rental car fleet with higher average daily revenue per vehicle (and obviously far more customers per vehicle per day). Admittedly, the costs would likely be higher as well, but the bet is that the net result will be higher profitability overall. By removing the driver cost and largely removing the insurance cost, you end up with highly predictable vehicle costs and can manage your business model around that to remain profitable and hopefully get to a near-monopoly position in major metro areas, supplanting traditional taxis, rental cars, and even public transit along the way.
If you have no Japanese roots I'd rather avoid using kanji and name semantics. Names don't have any meaning and different spelling than one on your official documents may lead to confusion. Only if you ever want to use it legally, of course. If it's just for kicks, then, by all means, go ahead.
I'm a fan of generally more aggressive music, and I'm also an old fart, but whenever I'm (usually accidentally) exposed to anything from nowadays, it sounds "too happy" to me - saccharine, treacly, shallow, heavy on notes 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the major scale, full of "millenial whoops" (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=millenial+whoop) and so on. So hearing that "pop music is getting sadder and angrier" surprises me.
