I'll give you some advice, but first, a caveat:
PHds are correlated with higher intelligence, and higher self-discipline. This is obviously due to the filtering process involved in achieving such a goal.

To succeed in life, you will need self discipline. Intelligence isn't bad either.

But most importantly, if it is interesting, gainful employment that you seek, then you must understand that supply and demand drives everything.

People often mistake any level of college as some sort of guarantee of a job or money. But it doesn't. Not even close.. It might be a prerequisite for certain positions, but that's all. To get your dream job, you must supply exactly what the employer needs, or at least convince them that you're the best person to provide it.

With that in mind, you need to design your life:

1. Begin with the end in mind. If you aren't incredibly precise about what you actually want, you'll just be walking backwards in life, and you might get lucky and end up in a nice place, but probably not.

You want a more interesting life. What does that mean? More interesting than your current life? How interesting is that?
Do you want to travel?
Do you want to hunt spies for a living?
What do you actually want to do? Take as much time as you need to precisely answer this question. Seriously. This is critical.

2. Work backwards from this dream life. Let's say you love the ocean, and you have envisioned that your dream job involves sailing on a ship a few months of the year.

Well, you've got a few options:
1. Be a nomadic freelancer with a satellite phone.
2. Work for an oceanic survey or marine biology research outfit.
3. Work for the oil industry and help support oil rigs.

Whichever sounds great at that point. Dig into whatever is necessary to achive your next step. You might need ta phd if you want to do marine biology research. If you want to be a nomadic freelancer, you should work to establish yourself as an expert in a particular field. You can do so without an employer by creating, or contributing to, open source projects.

These are just a few random thoughts, but the point here I want to repeat is:

1. Design your life, don't expect random chance to work out for you.
2. Work towards your design, step-by-step.
I don't see how its hiding behind civilians? Typically a well marked road march isn't seen as comparable to using human shields, there mere sharing of infrastructure isn't enough.
Was coming to add Greg Egan. A lot of his other novels and short stories would classify as well.
One of my favorite "case studies" related to this is the Selah ranch in Texas.

The TL;DR: version is that because it was choked with trees and brush, the groundwater had been removed. The owners restored it to primarily native grassland, and in the process restored natural water holes, and streams.

National Geographic did a really good 8-minute video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSPkcpGmflE

More info on the ranch: https://bambergerranch.org

Trees are great in some environments, but not appropriate for all environments.
A brief rant on the future of interaction design (2011)
Sure it would if you also assume that the ECM transmitter is also the target. Decoys might break your assumption though. It seems logical to mount ECM on a decoy target.

China Unveils ‘Super Camera’ Identifies Thousands of People Social-Credit System
According to that article, the most common use of a Luneberg lens is as a reflector, returning the RF back to its source, and I would guess that is what you would want it to do when your goal is to enhance its visibility to conventional radar. I do not think this would help passive radar, however, even if the lens functions as a retro-reflector at the frequencies used by the passive radar, as the sources and detector are typically a long way apart.

These lenses presumably have some isotropic scattering at the frequencies used by this passive radar, and the question is, how much?
I'm not surprised they are pivoting to a cat-walking startup to get a higher valuation.
Be careful what you wish for, this solution also includes the second American Civil War and assassination of high ranking government officials.
The Boss Is Watching
According to the police, the man had been living in seclusion for so long that it was difficult for him to communicate with the officers.

Even so, he was caught because of someone who clues about Song's whereabouts to the police. He must have been communicating with someone all this time. 17 years is such a looooong time!
seriously.

I've been doing this stuff a long time, there's usually a reason why I'm doing it the way I'm doing it. I understand you don't like it, think it shouldn't be done that way, and so forth.

But I promise you, I've already considered the alternatives. And if you mention an alternative I haven't considered, I'll consider it then.

But please, for the love of god, just answer the effing question and stop assuming you know the nuances of my problem better than I do.
The Green New Deal represents a $93 trillion subsidy to renewable energy, if it is enacted. That’s more than comparable.
You're right! Thanks for finding the source.
Replace "Erlang" with any other language and the statement still holds true.

If you want the obvious explanation, it's because we all have different experiences, and no one tool will be the biggest win for all teams across all domains.
> They're all really young and naive

And now they'll be a little less of each.

The lessons they can learn from this experience could put them ahead of the pack. We have an entire generation that knows nothing but post-crisis bull markets. When the next downturn comes, those tempered by bad experiences have the opportunity to position defensively and react nimbly. (Or at least more defensively and nimbler than their peers.)
We're not that accurate at predicting which cycle will start a grand minimum and we don't know for sure how many cycles a minimum will last for. This is a cutting edge research area. We know that a deep minimum is due and will happen this century. Some suggest cycle 25. Some suggest 26 as the start of it.

Sunspots themselves are not the big factor on climate, it's cosmic rays (which are inversely correlated) and clouds: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/12/171219091320.h...
It is very interesting that, at least in the US, 4k is still not really around. I don't think I can get any programming in 4k and I don't even have a 4k TV.

Netflix does 4k only on some devices and thats the only one I'm aware of. I'm sure there are plenty of examples, but the average consumer (me) is not consuming 4k content regularly. TV ads from 2015 would've led you to believe everything would be 4k now.

Heck, even youtube never streams in 4k.
No. Your comment did not read as "my opponents are nitpicking by denying that he questioned the badness of sex with children", you just stated your belief in the badness of sex with children and how nothing more needs to be said. "Full stop". "Why is this a conversation".

And you are now backpedalling.

Stop with this crap, I'm sick of the emotional rhetoric and lies in everything.

I wish we were in a world where en employee saying something just isn't considered endorsement, tacit or otherwise, by the employer. Then we wouldn't be in this mess. And I can't help but notice that activists who want to punish certain views are the ones encouraging the interpretation of employees' speech as endorsement by the employer in order to be more effectively able to punish speech they don't like.

I'm sure they would be less happy if the shoe were on the other foot and authoritarian rightists were in charge, but they are not looking that far ahead apparently.
At their current burn rate they only have enough cash on hand through early next year.
Cultural fit is so important these days and every one of them was a cultural fit at an extremely shady company. Even if they weren’t participating in the rampant excesses, they were still willing to go along with it.
A ring of gadolinium is used as a rotor in an electric generator, motion is caused by using heat to create a magnetization gradient in different zones of the ring: "Cyclic heating and cooling causes magnetic domains to orient and disorient, resulting in time-varying magnetization and an unbalanced magnetic torque on the rotor."

I bought one of the original kit versions of this and also bought one of the most recent units as a gift to my mother-in-law. We love it; it runs in our bathroom in the morning, is dead simple to use, and lasts a very long time on a battery. Yes, a cheap plastic radio would be less expensive, but then we'd be dealing with tuning that can drift, a poorer speaker, and a less charming exterior.
They haven't lost all value, but you certainly can't take them at face value. I always make sure to read the negative reviews, as others have mentioned. I'll also frequently look at the review history of any review that resonates with me one way or another to see if they appear to be a normal person or a paid shill. Amazon could probably solve this problem if it wanted since it has access to purchase histories, shipping addresses, and review histories for all accounts on its site. I assume that the problem of fake reviews isn't solved because Amazon doesn't care enough about it to take the necessary action and fix it. It may also help Amazon's bottom line to have a bunch of highly-rated products for sale, even if those ratings are fake.
Scramble your interceptors.
Reminds me of the famous examples of Japanese soldiers fighting on after 1945, two of them (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroo_Onoda, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teruo_Nakamura, on separate islands) until 1974.

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_holdout even mentions “Shigeyuki Hashimoto and Kiyoaki Tanaka joined the Malayan Communist Party's guerrilla forces to continue fighting, returning to Japan in January 1990”)
I hold a German Diploma in computer science (comparable to MSc but - of course - much better.) I started a PhD without really wanting it, I thought it's a good opportunity. After one year I came to the conclusion that it was a bad idea to start it. It took another 1,5 years to actually quit.
Why did it took me so long? Because by doing something I didn't like I had developed a depression...

I went to a decently paid job and
would never go back.

I did, however learn some great things during these years in academia, as I had a great postdoc and a very skillful team.

If you ever want to go back, you surely will find a good position to do your PhD. Professor love cheap labor. It's not hard to find.
And PhD students are by far not the brightest people I met. Some are, some absolutely not.
That's only partially true. Deep learning approaches for segmentation are state of the art where you have large labeling sets with high variability in the targets, but that hardly covers everything. The techniques are also being used where this isn't the case, of course, but with mixed results at best. Which should hardly be surprising, as transfer methods are hardly a panacea.
Sure, passive radars need a lot of antennas to cover a lot of ground, but the point is they can be made very hard to find since they are passive and that the hardware doesn't cost so much.
If you think it's problematic that a Twitter exec is also a reserve psyops officer, you probably shouldn't think about how many corporate (and nonprofit, and non-federal government) cybersecurity officials at all levels are military reservists whose military role is cyberwarfare.
I don't get this reasoning. Global warming has been self-reinforcing since before my dad was born, so a 100% reduction in human co2 emissions will not stop climate change, just slow it down. It's also an exponential process and we're not in the early stages, so it won't even slow it down that much. Imagine the effect of a 5% change now, which is a completely unrealistic goal to boot. It's nothing.

We don't need miracle technology, we have the technology to take control of the climate, and we'll be forced to use it, whatever other measures are used.

So lifestyle choices are great and all, but please stop saying they're for the climate. They're insignificant, even if 100% implemented.

The proverbial raindrop you're talking about matters very little if the reason for the flood is a dam breaking. Great attitude on the part of the raindrop to not make the situation worse. But all the raindrops together only make the situation 0.1% worse than it was before the rain ...
The Stellar private key is easy to find in the wallet settings on all of the clients.

Also, I made a test account from scratch to test out the UX flow. Here's what I found (Note, this is the Android version, not iOS).

1) I created a new username and entered the new account on mobile client.

2) I created a password so I could log into the web client.

3) Out of curiosity I went ahead and clicked the wallet tab in the burger menu.

4) I'm then presented with a brief (full screen) 'Welcome' message and have to click a button that says 'Open Your Wallet' to continue.

5) once that button is clicked you are presented with a more lengthy, full screen, disclaimer that takes a minute to read.

Here is what point #3 says
3. CRYPTOCURRENCY ISN'T REALLY ANONYMOUS. When you sign your first of "default" Stellar address into your signature chain on Keybase, you are announcing it publicly as a known address for you. Assume that all of your transactions from that account are public. You can have as many Stellar accounts as you like in Keybase, but whenever you make one your default, that one is then announced as your. Consider that data permanent.

6) I then clicked 'Not now' button. Instead of 'Yes, I agree' button.

7) I log into my web client to see how my new account looks, and in fact, there is no Stellar wallet or address.

Seems to me like you have to explicitly opt into creating a wallet, and the disclaimer is very clear about signing it into your signature chain and announcing it publicly.

So unless the iOS client does not have the same disclaimer and wording, which would surprise me, I'm still not understanding what the problem is. The developer also said they are working on the feature totally remove your default Stellar wallet, so I imagine in the near future you can delete it.
I think a lot of the decline in calling CQ is that SSB is murdering itself. This is happening due to the poor propagation and general disinterest in trying to blast through people with huge PA's and beams as a novice/foundation user. The investment required to go hunting DX is quite high. CW, FT8, JS8call are on the scene and have a lot better performance, require less bandwidth and considerably less power. Much more practical.

I mostly run CW with a bit of FT8 occasionally. That keeps me smiling and that's all that matters :)
Same experience. Never buy anything from H&M again.
But LTCM wasn't based on options trading, its main strategy (the one that failed) was arbitrage of bonds with different maturity dates: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-Term_Capital_Management#F... That hasn't got much to do with Black-Scholes
The incarceration rate has declined in the past decade but I would guess that’s due to already having locked up a large proportion of the population as well as changes enforcement and prosecution. Weed is legal now, to take an obvious example of prosecutorial waste that’s been ameliorated.
Also I notice Cr-Steel's elastic yield strength at 400C is about 87% of its strength at room temp and I don't think it does alter significantly over these timescales at that temperature.
It will be interesting to see how high it can be routinely cycled without losing its temper, but it seems to certainly provide much more overhead for safety margins as well as routine operation.

All I can really do is recommend some reading about the history of Marxism and communism being put into practice. It’s not a cheery subject.

The question of private property is an interesting one. Sorry but I hoped to come back and write more but I’m out of time to address it at the moment.

On the balance between private ownership versus public responsibility you’re quite right. It’s not a matter of absolutes. Its important to recognise that every right incurs an obligation on others to recognise, protect and provision the conditions to exercise it. I don’t think there’s anything absolute about rights. They are a vital, indispensable concept, but they are hard work and all the more valuable and worthy of respect because of it, both by those granting them and those exercising them.

I’ve already addressed the question of how to reconcile corporatism with regulation. Corporations are limited liability bodies, which confers on them significant legal and financial benefits. I think taxation and regulation are a reasonable and fair quid pro quo. To expand on that, corporations, individuals and companies in general also benefit from the protection and services of government and society. That includes things like access to an educated work force, protection by the legal system, etc, etc. All of those things create an obligation that can be reasonably discharged through paying taxes and following regulations in the service of the public good.

Of course they can always exercise the ultimate freedom - to leave and go elsewhere. From time to time some do.
If someone is shining a spotlight in your face, the spotlight may also be illuminating the room. That doesn't help you see any better.

It is not lifestyle choices, and most of what you've written is factually wrong.

I can have the exact same lifestyle in France and the US and in US my carbon footprint will be twice larger.

Eating local is bad advise in many countries, as impact of transporting food is much lower than the impact of growing it in sub-optimal climate: http://freakonomics.com/2011/11/14/the-inefficiency-of-local....

If you look at carbon footprint of an average person, it is made up of electricity consumption, transportation, heating and food. Durable goods like iPhones and fridges are absolutely irrelevant to the carbon footprint for 99% of humanity.

Real impact comes from renewables/nuclear, getting rid of beef and lamb in your diet, public transport and well insulated homes. That would get us down to 2 tonnes per person per year, and we would never have climate change and ecosystem can recycle 3.

It costs $50 to plant enough trees to offset your carbon footprint, you need a couple hundred trees a year and they cost 30-50p per tree to plant in UK.

It would cost $100-$1000 to sequester same carbon through carbon capture directly from the air, depending who you speak to.
Cloudflare still relies on the "massive amount of free users creating buzz vs. a tiny fraction of paid users". Although not an obvious scam, they may very well go the Groupon way.
But this example uses static sizes, unlike the sticky footer problem of the article (where e.g. the window can be resized by the user).

It depends on the discipline. In the geosciences, MSc degrees are the typical 'working degree'. If you want a job, you basically need one, therefore lots of schools offer them. Most people spend 2-3 years on an MSc and then hopefully get a paper or two out before starting work or going on for a PhD (another 4-8 years). You also have to have a pretty solid thesis to get the MSc so you can't just bow out of a PhD program.

Some of the more academically-focused (private) schools don't have much of an MSc program but they're atypical, and they don't dominate research like they do in other fields.

I was thinking about this also. Practically speaking, I don't think you would be able to get much from civilian sources. It could be used to effectively boost the range of your own radar stations though. If you put a passive receiver (of the same receiving sensitivity as your radar station) at the maximum range of your radar station you would effectively increase the range of your system by 50%. But there are some caveats. The biggest is that both your emissions source and your passive receiver need line of sight to the target, making it easier for a jet to break contact at the outer range.
Yeah, you are totally different from women who want to work. In their case it is selfishness and wanting things most people can easily live without.

In your case it is because work gives you happiness and totally nothing to do with material things.

Majority of women live without expensive holidays and expensive cars. Majority of men live without expensive car and men are more car-focused and tend to be the ones who control the car when car is in family. Most people, neither males nor females go to expensive restaurants.

You know what else second income does? No one can tell you that he earned money and you are wasting them. It means that you can leave when relationship goes bad. It means you can handle when husband goes sick or dies. It means that you are less vulnerable and safer.

You don't have to, but doing so is a strategy to prevent yourself from going down that same path.

When you cast people into the realm of inhuman monster, you're also telling yourself a story that there is no possible way that you could potentially commit the same acts.

Which is, 99% of the time, a total lie. Humans are exceptionally good at creating moral justification for whatever the hell we want to do.

If you're convinced you are constitutionally incapable of committing monstrous acts, then you're not likely to engage in the self reflection that would allow you to catch yourself if you start heading down that path.
I have -5.50D and to be honest, whilst my vision is pretty poor I can definitely tell that, when not wearing glasses, my close-up vision is better. Not that it's actually helpful.
I see lots of cheering which, to some degree, I understand given the public persona of Adam Neumann.

I'm more interested in the ramifications, and I don't just mean the obvious ones like "potential tech recession" (maybe, who knows) or "more due diligence" (unlikely, or if so likely to swing completely the other direction).

Given that "private markets are the new public markets" I wonder if this will just encourage more companies to stay private either indefinitely (e.g. MailChimp though obviously I realize they are an exception) or for a period far beyond the norm (AirBnB) to wait for a more favorable time to IPO. Maybe we'll see companies switch to RSUs instead of ISOs as this becomes more common.
