Where are you guys?

I typically travel to places where I know someone — so given that most of the Malaysians I know have moved elsewhere (or are trying to) I'm less inclined to visit. The politics, health care, and to some extent personal safety and syariah law create some resistance too.
I have not implemented additional APIs by running a local DNS server.
I've had pretty good luck with Green House Data's Colo Service and their Cloud offerings. A couple of RU's in the data center can host 1000's of VM's in multi-regions with great connectivity between them.

Mhmm, borax is very safe. I have even eaten it (food grade obviously) for weeks without problem. For some people with arthritis it can be life changing. It was far more frequently used a while ago and do not really understand the bad reputation it has recently acquired. Maybe it is the scary sounding name

Boric acid on the other hand is much more toxic. However I have bought OTC eye washes containing it and they work very well.

Your machine probably has ^r for working through bash history

But that aside, if you’re into arrow pressing, a few lines in your .inputrc can go a long ways

Test this out sometime:

# Incremental searching with Up and Down and Left and Right
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

Now you can type “find” and press up/down arrow to just cycle through history that starts with find

> The Fed making mistakes doesn't mean the claim is wrong.

I was trying to highlight that policy missteps are damaging and can occur with either monetary or fiscal policy.

> My understanding was that QE helped, but IOER was a mistake.

I’m familiar with an argument that QE1 was effective while QE2 and QE3 failed to provide the same degree of stimulus, but I can’t recall the substance at the moment. Comparing the QE responses of US, Eurozone, and Chinese central banks indicates QE did stabilize economies, but it also drained liquid, fungible assets from the market at a time where liquidity was most needed.
> But as I said on Twitter, will the NFL listen?

I suspect an incoming lawsuit against the NFL will get their attention.

If they really cut him without any investigation, that's going to be a violation of his contract. Obviously, you won't win this if you actually get convicted for a crime, but the fact that he has been exonerated means the NFL is guilty of a contract violation and is going to have to cough up for it.

I suspect that will finally get the attention of some important people in the NFL.
For passive income? What is "passive" about writing a book? Or do you mean, passive as in "paid later"?
The samples I got from Markforged refute your point. They are identical parts, one in plain nylon and one in their chopped CF nylon. The CF filled one is noticeably stiffer. I'm not sure anyone is making the claim that the CF filled parts are comparable to traditional composite parts.
> schemes make things needlessly inflexible

Not so. See file: :-)
"and in exchange the useful are paid commensurate with the value the produce. "

The trouble with that is that there is a fallacy of composition there. The only thing you can have in that system is more money. You can't have more stuff because by definition there is no more stuff being added to the pubic value pool.

And if you have more money, but the same amount of stuff, then all that happens is prices go up. Unless you believe more people than now value money for its own sake.

Trying to hide a transfer using a money illusion only works for so long. Then people work out they are being fiddled and have the system shut down politically. Which is historically what has happened in every single case it has been tried.

Alms to the poor is resented not just by those forced to provide the alms but by the poor themselves who resent being patronised and seen as useless.

Such systems are generally put forward by those who believe they can value signal to their peers by being the ones handling out the alms.
For one, it doesn't add to the debt.
I would think anyone enforcing password expiration would make sure the password is sufficiently (subjective) different from current password. This should be simple to enforce by asking for current password when you are asking for new password. You can perform a text match before computing whatever hash you need to store.
In India, most mobile apps have phone number for username and OTP instead of password. Makes perfect sense for mobile apps. Except when OTP doesn't arrive due to congested sms networks. Or that your account gets hacked with sim takeover or sms MitM (both are currently unheard of in India).
Head transplants have been carried out on mammals successfully in the past. The success criteria isn't in restoring limb function, but rather in keeping the brain alive on a host body.

It bothers me that it's called a head transplant and not a body transplant.

If I needed to, I would definitely choose a new body over a new head.
I'm actually okay with that. Read it the other way around. You can only kick someone out for being dangerous if you can prove they are dangerous.
My observations:

DoE is actually a multi-functional role responsible for interfacing everything Engineering with Strategic Management, Marketing and Sales. As such Core Engineering competency is the necessity and without that everything else is useless. They must have in depth knowledge of the domain and the specific product line(s) and not mere "hand-wavy" overview. Too many DoEs err on the side of Management and not enough Engineering. Delegate appropriate responsibilities to Tech. Leads/Architects/Sr. Engineers but still be involved so that everything comes together as a organic whole. Shield Engineering from management/operational BS and politics. Have regular meetups with Product Teams and ALL individual engineers one-on-one (eg. brown bag lunches) so that you can assess motivation/morale and work on methods to maintain it at optimum level. Encourage "skunkworks" projects. Be generous in crediting individual engineers and not mere "team talk". While focusing on the company's product vision be also mindful of each engineer's aspirations and provide for opportunities for each of them to grow (eg. training in new technologies and management, 15% time on whatever side projects). Finally, always, always LISTEN to your Engineers on major tech. related decisions.

> More concerning, I no longer wish to support reddit as a platform. Widespread astroturfing, manufactured controversy, politics, bullying, incessant nitpicking and arguing. I don't like how people treat each other on the platform, and I don't like how it makes me feel when I use it.

Don't think this has to do with Reddit so much as the way we interact with each other online, in general.
This is literally creating local jobs. A job equals more income than no job. So this is raising incomes. In addition, there's less capital leaving the country buying foreign produce. So the money that would be spent anyway creates a local job, and in return is again spent locally by a Ghanaian farmer, instead of spent in Europe by a Dutch farmer. This is literally a win all around. An economy is a system, you can't just one day create amazing jobs without an entire support system around them.

So... As a cancer patient myself going through chemo, I'll take the chemo over the cancer any day if the week. While some chemo treatments suck, it typically depends on what stage you're at, if you're curable, your comorbidities, and your personal genetics. I can say without any doubt whatsoever I'm alive right now because of chemo. Reducing the tumor allowed me to eat, which has kept me from wasting away into death. Survival times tend to increase with treatment, however quality of life of that survival time is reduced drastically for some people which I believe is what your point is not accurately reflecting, but again it's different for every single patient. I'm young, otherwise healthy, and I'm tolerating the chemo far better than expected with a far better response than average. I'm halfway through average expected survival time and if I live 2 more years I'll be drastically beating the odds. Right now that looks possible for me and that's because of the cancer treatment. There's also been a groundswell of new standard treatments, premeds, and novel treatments as better understanding of the disease in the past 10 years is just starting to bear fruit. If you look at survival rates of some common cancers in the United States many of them are downright not terrible odds of surviving through unless you catch them very late in their development.

Perhaps so, but it is not an axiomatic conflict. A website (or online community) can start off small, attracting attention of only fellow, well-meaning e-peers before regressing to the mean.
Unfortunately with how the world works it requires some level of slave-like population to operate.

> Modern games, at least as far as I can tell require you to connect to the IP holders company’s servers and often don’t allow you to pick and choose specifically who you play against which in turn makes it nearly impossible to build leagues and do team scrimmages, team practices, local community leagues, etc...

Most amateur leagues that do form around a game do use these kinds of features it may need to actually phone the home servers but online leagues generally just use default game functionality. I don't know any game that's worth playing competitively that doesn't have a feature for a 'custom game' or invite-only game. If it's worth playing competitively usually a group will spring up- it can be a hundred people or hundreds of thousands of people but those communities do exist from everything from soldat to Dota 2. You just have to go find them. Generally you don't start with a full team either, you play pugs (pick up games) and start to learn the competitive ropes just like you would in a more traditional game.

The downfall is unlike older titles where individuals rented servers and communities grew around servers easily, the lazy matchmaking that you can do nowadays makes actually meeting people you want to play with much harder than it used to be. You can play 10 hours in a matchmaking competitive game and never play with the same people twice, whereas you usually were playing with/against the same people all for at least an hour or two at a time. It's not impossible to do just is less organic to find people you want to play with at their worst and at their best.
I hope the settlement was commensurate to that likely possibility. Who knows where he could have been now, not even he knows. That opportunity was stolen from him.

This is just as bad as someone being falsely imprisoned IMO. There are so many opportunities that may have been availed him. Maybe he’s not the greatest NFL talent, but there is no way to know what might have grown out of that experience. Maybe he would have ended up applying his skills and knowledge in some other way within the industry just having been exposed to it directly.
There are many examples of automated systems not accounting for novel or rare situations that the original designers didn't plan for or ignored. This is why manual override should always be available as a last resort if possible. No automated system we can design today is perfect. While protections and automatic mitigation should be implemented, taking away agency from pilots or whoever else is a recipe for disaster.

The other problem with cancer is that there are different types of cancer cells. There's the fast dividing and there's also the cancer stem cells which can lay dormant for years without dividing. This is the reason for most cancer returning. There's a promising new tech that hopefully pans out that activates these cells so standard chemo can attack them. Regarding clinical trials, they are very selective. You have to for a very specific criteria and your cancer needs to be measurable by a CT scanner typically to prove efficacy. Add to that the typical cancer patient is either a child or an older person and you're bound to have poorer results.

Well, it is and isn't novel. S-expressions have been around since McCarthy, XML since the mid-90's. The point of the article is that XML is a more verbose re-interpretation of s-expressions-- it's hard to find things that XML brings to the table that sexps don't have. What's more, inside editors, there are really clever things that manipulate sexprs, move them around, redefine their semantic meaning. XML usually doesn't work quite that way, not as a first intent.

The thing that bothered me that they resumed to do the same dive 3 weeks after the accident - it doesn't sound like enough time to setup protocols to prevent the same accident from occurring again. Also it was very weird to hear that they don't have checklist to follow when they ships's dynamic position system fails...They were essentially trying to control the ship by whatever they can think of for over 20 min while somebody is suffocating on the ocean floor.

I once read a great comment on HN when a similar topic came up (I cannot find the comment). In short, a guy in Australia struck it rich. Turned his ranch into a tropical island like set up. After some time got fed up and went to live on a real tropical island. A couple of years later he was back in Australia tired of the island lifestyle. The point of the post was that variety is probably what keeps us happy. Too much of one thing and most of us get bored.
I'm always surprised to see new projects use socketio. Socket.io has been historically very buggy, it has a bizarre scaling model and its difficult to configure and use through a load balancer. The way it uses multiple transports means some bugs show up only on some browsers / connections, and this can make debugging applications written on socket.io really difficult, because it can be impossible to reproduce problems that users are seeing.

Socket.io is also totally unnecessary since websocket support is universal:

Isn't this mostly from companies like GeneSight? Considering that they relied on 5-HTTLPR and HTR2A, which both had enormous edifices of completely useless (and now debunked) scholarship behind them, I wouldn't bet on those tests' effectiveness.

Our experience back in 2000 was of be breast police forcing my Wife to feed a sleeping 4 hour old baby, telling her that if she didn't feed it it the baby would die then standing over her and telling her that everything she was doing was wrong. Not a good start.
This is after a 36 hour labour and I'd run away home for some sleep.

This was our first baby so everything was new and unfortunately everything in the hospital was high pressure with an undercurrent of "why don't you know how to do this?".

After a few days we managed to escape the hospital. Once we were home the pace slowed down and amazingly enough we started to discover what made this little fella tick.

Feeding was still a lot of pain and tears, so we finally in desperation purchased some bottles and formula. Was amazing how much of a difference taking the stress of feeding away was. The baby was happy, the mother was happy, I was happy and we never looked back.

He's now a healthy 6 foot 18yr old working his first job.

It was amazing how much of a different reception we got on subsequent babies. The midwifes tended to just leave us to it. In both subsequent times we managed to get out of the hospital within 24 hours of the birth, allowing us to get to know the new member of the family without everybody trying to tell us how to do it.

Monetization I think was the biggest driver behind reddits' regression to the mean.
> Is there any response that would satisfy you?

Do you believe that a PR response made in damage control mode that actually changes nothing is something that's satisfactory?

I mean, apparently this screwup was so damaging that it killed a company. What part of the PR statement addresses that precendent?
The point i was responding to was fear of being arbitrarily rejected by a visa officer, which can happen. Or having your H1B petition denied for a job that would've had it approved the year before - as is happening pretty frequently this year.

No one would complain if H1B was a transparent and clear system (like a points-based immigration system). In reality its often arbitrary, with your visa status hanging on the political tides of the country, or how a visa/border officers day is going. That kind of unpredictability wasn't clear to me when I got the H1B and isn't any kind of well-defined risk you can accept before going down that path.
It seems mind boggling that you'd punish people for being fiscally responsible and living within their means. There are so many people today living paycheck to paycheck and who could be ruined by a minor financial shock, negative interest would encourage this behavior. In this scenario wouldn't you also be better off hoarding cash instead of putting money in a bank?
My understanding is that helicopter money expands a central bank’s balance sheet (irreversibly) whereas fiscal policy does not, but the distinction is murky when considering policy like tax rebates.
