What is tough with happiness is that the more things you have the harder it is to achieve. Or a perspective that effectively erase the chance of being allowed to be happy.

My own path was to start dancing, a tough one like argentine tango, since it requires full mental awareness. Which in effect means that you always come home with a grin from side to side. This will be true with any form of activity that actually makes you focus.

You always have the rest of your life ahead of you, it's up to you to make something meaningful out of it. Don't set out to find a partner but rather your passion (that involves other human beings not computers), and love will find you. And as others wrote, it's a bit of luck involved, but you have to give luck a chance to strike you.

I guess it's never too late, regretting stuff is always a downward spiral.

What you save by not upgrading Apple’s egregiously priced flash memory, you can put towards a much larger NAS :-) With 10GbE becoming available, you can get pretty great performance from 6-8 spinning disks, with gobs of space.
The fact that NSA does so little for cybersecurity is telling. When they say patch something, it probably means it should be national emergency.

If you must specialize in something, try to be sure first that it isn't something that might go away. (This includes many techish things!)

Which means that you must have a general-enough idea of how permanent some skillset is likely to be. Getting paid to do what you enjoy doing most is great ... until innovation wipes out the demand.

Another danger: over-specialization. You might not want to become an expert in Company A's gear unless those skills will port to openings at B,C and D.

OP said alternate theories where being suppressed but has yet to name one or provide any evidence of that they're being suppressed. That's why I and others strongly suspect they are a creationist sowing doubt and not interested in any legitimate debate. The playbook of a creationist or climate "skeptic" is to sow doubt and then claim their theory is just as good because "nobody really knows".

If they'd name what dissenting theory is being suppressed I'd give them a lot more benefit of the doubt.
Cats nails are naturally needle sharp, they can't help but hurt you if they catch. They actually grow out from underneath so as soon as new nail becomes exposed it's super sharp.

Minecraft is still huge, and moddable. Sure lots of people moved to Bedrock edition on Consoles/Win10 but plenty of people still play the Java version and develop mods, resource packs, shader packs, etc.

Racing Sims like Assetto Corsa have a decent sized modding community with people designing and coding new car models, modifications to the physics/handling, audio packs, tracks/maps, etc.

Flight Sims are the same, and lots of other Simulator games.

As for open world games... Skyrim, GTAV, Empyrion, Space Engineers, Terraria, Starbound, are all moddable and have thriving communities.

Then there's the entire Steam genre of moddable games: https://store.steampowered.com/tags/en/Moddable#p=0&tab=TopS...

Modding is very much alive and well. I'd suggest just finding any of the above games that interest you and having a play with the mod system. I find it a very entertaining and interesting way to learn more about programming due to the specific constraints of each game.

Well, Dawkins and other prominent promoters of modern evolutionary synthesis usually say the opposite: we are working on it, they say, and we BELIEVE one day we will know the answers to what right now we don’t!

Intentional scratching is a behavioral issue. Sometimes you can solve it by giving the cat more playtime (real playtime, chasing / stalking a wand toy). Sometimes it's about not petting a cat certain ways. Sometimes it can just be solved by rewarding them with treats for not scratching you.

Trimming helps but yeah, search for behavior fixes. Cats are different from us (and dogs) but they're usually not that complicated to figure out.

Product Manager and Sr. Product Manager | San Francisco | REMOTE | https://www.airbase.com

Airbase is the first all-in-one spend management platform that provides companies unparalleled control and visibility into every dollar spent. Finance teams deserve a solution that eliminates the tedious work involved in managing spend and allows them to focus on being strategic partners to the rest of the business. We do that by replacing the multiple systems typically used to manage spend with a single platform that handles every workflow including expense approvals and payments (physical cards, virtual cards, ACH, check), while also automating away the bulk of spend-related accounting. Our customers include companies like Gusto, Netlify, Getaround, Segment and many others.

We're hiring Product Managers and Sr. Product Managers.

I admittedly have no idea how’d you’d test this in an animal—but it seems like it should be a prerequisite to banning the procedure.
Yeah, I mostly use emacs, which is pretty terminal friendly, or ssh-piped Jupyter, which I love and hate. I used to try to make those remote mounting solutions work.

One thing you can do is run a Linux VM locally with VMWare’s shared folder stuff (annoying to get working but solid once working). Develop using your local IDE, test locally on your VM, and then check in/check out on the heavy weight machine once you have something ready to run something big. Depends on what you’re doing, though. For machine learning, Jupyter is niceish.

Unfortunately the US really has ridiculous Visa policies across the board, with different types of documentation needed for different levels of the same thing.

If you want to do a CPT (internship while your course is ongoing), you can just inform your school and it's fine. But if you want to do it after the course (OPT), you have to apply for an EAD, which adds another 3 months of delay. Why can't the attestation on your I-94 be enough?

It's like the USCIS creates additional paper work for itself so that it can cry about having too much work.

Yup. Been there, done that. I had to get rather obstreperous with the nurses to make them leave me alone as much as possible, so that I could get sleep.

I also had 32db NRR earplugs that I take with me everywhere (my hearing can be very sensitive), and I used those extensively.

I got lucky and I wasn’t in the hospital for long. Once I got home, I could sleep as much as I needed.

I'm actually somewhat torn on this one. At face value, I fully agree. More, none of my cats have been declawed, as I just don't see the point.

That said, I also don't buy the mutilation argument at face value. We literally castrated all of our male cats, and nobody bats an eye. Indeed, you seem to be frowned upon if you don't. Surely that is as mutilating to a male cat as losing a knuckle?

> I'm surprised by the negative responses in this thread.

That is actually a general pattern. Negative, dismissive responses come fast because they're reflexive. They don't require processing significant information, nor reflection, nor thoughtful writing—all of which take time. Therefore they are the first to appear.

After that, a second wave of objections gets triggered because people read the first wave and are dismayed by how negative it was. That is the contrarian dynamic: https://hn.algolia.com/?query=%22contrarian%20dynamic%22&sor....

There are a lot of exemptions in healthcare, sleep is part of this exceptional world, I was told bluntly 'we are not operating a hotel here' last time I spent a sleepless night in a hospital.

Food is another area of concern. You can starve during a hospital visit or end up broke buying supplemental calories in the shop.

Then there is the sheer difficulty of navigating the typical hospital if you are somewhat disabled or in agonising pain.

It is as if that every hospital operates at some subliminal level as a field hospital in some 19th century war. It is thoughtcrime to think of how the place is run is less than heroic. There is also triage so that people with serious problems get dealt with before those with minor ailments. Therefore it is fine to keep a lot of people waiting. Or is it?

In places that have a customer service ethos you don't keep people waiting. Apart from anything else it is just plain inefficient. The sleep thing is what I would consider inefficient. It is a given that at a typical hospital none of the patients are sleeping too well, if it is not disruption then it can be flimsy blankets. Sure any ward is not going to be your own bed, but we are way off any customer first thinking when it comes to this.

I have had discussions about this with plenty of people and the idea of customer service in healthcare is poo-pooed. Is there anywhere in the world where it has been given a try? Scandinavia? Or even Cuba? It is not rocket surgery giving the patients a good night's sleep and enjoyable food. In our private lives we recommend to others that have a big day ahead of them that they get a good night's sleep. Why does this go out the window in the world of healthcare, whether it be staff or patients?

At least castration has the actual benefit of aiding in population control. I don't see any benefit to declawing and in fact it endangers outdoor cats as they can't adequately protect themselves.
I could point to many theories that were declared debunked but were later revived under different names, eg Lamarckian evolution, now a hot field again under the name epigenetics.

I could say that it is New Kind of Science type explanations which defy simply analytic explanations the same way machine learning is not reducible to explanations involving simple syllogisms.

But let’s give you what you want, because I want to get to the heart of the issue. What if the competing theory was, in fact supernatural, some form of intelligent design or theistic evolution? Go ahead, make your point. Because I am interested in just how much an attitude of anti theism motivates otherwise rational people to refuse to admit that an unfalsifiable theory (like that ALL speciation proceeds by random mutation and natural selection, ie things we understand which we call natural) is falsifiable? And that a fancy sounding just-so story actually passes for science as long as it assumes the above is true?

You just prefer that currently understood processes are involved, instead of saying that it’s stuff beyond your comprehension.

I will directly ask: how is that more rational than theism?

>>The government declares which investors are savvy or not ("accreditation" based on the rules) only partly because they believe certain people are unqualified to make certain investment decisions based on knowledge.

You're just rewording what I said.

What you're promoting is based on a principle that is roundly rejected when applied in every other sphere of life.

>>As a reminder, this is one of the few responsibilities the government actually has in any society, even the most libertarian.

Protecting people from their own bad judgement is not a responsibility that the government has in a free (libertarian) society.

That's why we let people read whatever literature they want, no matter how toxic the ideas it promotes, and to eat as much as they want, exercise as little as they want, engage in as much unprotected sex as they want, and drink and smoke as much they want.

When it comes to crime, the government does have a role in protecting people, but the way it traditionally protects them is by intervening when someone reports a crime in progress, or punishing individuals after they've committed a crime, to create a deterrent effect, not by prohibiting people from venturing into dangerous areas of the city, or prohibiting certain types of relationships that are more likely to lead to criminal incidents.

Preemptive restrictions applied to innocent people is not how crime is addressed in a free society.
It's not exactly a quick fix, but how many generations would it take to breed cats with substantially softer claws? This could be an interesting program perhaps for the government to undertake.

I also wonder if crispr or embryo selection could be used if a GWAS could find genes that lead to softer claws.

The selection techniques have been used to improve milk yields for cows, so it seems like making cats which don't need to be declawed would be a valid project.
