It opens a glorious door into emotional life.

Those faces you talked about helped me understand paychological projection, and how what i think someone did, is probably me blaming them for something they didnt do the way i understand it.

We are bizzar, and its actually really cool.

In vipassana, they tell you to ignore those faces, and scary things (also even the good) - or to Examine them in relaxed acceptance - eventually always going back to the breath, and it helpes the intensity “dissolve” and mellow out.

I found out that the twitches and pains i have are produced by a similar mechanism, and sitting long enough with my “fighting emotions” releases them and also releases the pain.

Its easier to drink a beer or smoke a joint, so i understand society’s choice.

Well it worked for China, they now have large corporations of similar (enough) caliber to their Western counterparts creating a lot more jobs than if Amazon or Google were allowed to run free.

It's hard enough to compete against these established Tech Giants if they just come in and buy all the domestic companies. Not to mention the companies are starting with a massive head start.
The outcome: Alternate-day fasting does not produce superior weight loss or weight maintenance compared with daily calorie restriction.

I found this study after seeing an article on CNN titled "Eating in a 6-hour window and fasting for 18 hours might help you live longer".
Isn’t it common for inmates in prisons to work menial jobs such as this? So is the issue that they are being illegally imprisoned? If that’s the case wouldn’t their own governments know about it and be working towards their release?
I do, because Safari has the same limited AdBlock functionality as Chrome team wants to implement. Firefox adblockers are thus more powerful.
Combine this with measured water resistance, to help me find 'the most breathable material that will stand up to X minutes of rain', add data for 'crinkliness' and stretchability (even just your own qualitative scale), then add affiliate links to actual products that use these materials and you've got yourself a nice little side project to maybe generate a bit of passive income.
> And what percentage of Android users have Android P or above as we approach 2020? 30%? Less?

At more than 50% for US and rising.

> Final example: Android lets apps simply write and read to/from the file system anywhere they want, until very recently (Android 10?). If I'm not mistaken, that means that any app that's granted permissions to the file system could just read common storage locations like your Facebook cache directory to gather personal information.

This is not true at all since cache directories and other private storage is and have been isolated since the start.

Can you please not spread misleading information about things you're not informed about? It just fuels dumb brand fanboyism.
Its funny you know,

I dont see the loop as hell, i accepted the loop as nature, so when i succumbed and accepted, i felt gratitude for having others around.

Maybe its the intensity of the dose, or our underlying temperaments. I tend to think its a matter of how much time you spend in the loop.

Ironically, i still feel very sorry for “god”. If we feel human feelings and human loneliness, a perfect all knowing thing can feel loneliness on a godly scale, and that’s beyond any horror we can imagine.
I had a really weird experience with my AirPods Pro.

I was cooking with the noise cancelling turned on and I sliced off half my fingernail with a potato peeler, right down between the nail and the finger. It was pretty gross.

But I had the noise cancelling on and as I looked at my finger I had this weird out of body experience where I couldn’t feel anything and just felt completely separate from it - I had to take the AirPods out before I could come to grips with the situation and do anything about it.

That noise cancellation is powerful stuff. I can see how it could transport you maybe even as much as VR
I think Beats are the only other headphones (not buds) with the w1 / h1 chipset.

Otherwise, companies need to hire night shifts if they want someone covering while the devs are asleep. If you want full uptime, then hire for it! Your employees shouldn't give up their sleep and weekends for a measly 0.003% of your company.

Also, I would strongly support extra pay for low-wage workers working holidays, weekends, or night shifts.

The argument made for GPS leading to hippocampal atrophy could easily be made for any new technology.

And yet, the evidence of generations of expanding technology, appears to be that it doesn’t affect brain function in any meaningful way.

Instead our brains pocket the technological advance and start to move on to higher order stuff.

I have a hard time believing that GPS is the one thing, specifically, that is going to buck that trend and make us all stupid.

This does seem like more poorly sourced, poorly researched viral techno-gloom.
I feel this isn't going to work well the second time. Automation right around the corner and India isn't willing to do the things china was allowed to do.

Arguably the best engineers are also good designers, and everything else related to the product.

Some of the best ones I know dabble in things like art and music, and do it better than most of the people who are full time specialists. It reminds me sort of like watching sports, where a world class defender can attack better than a second division forward. Maybe they just have really outstanding soft skills.
I don't know, I'm just going off based on their documentation: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/external/200141480?...

It says:

> For inventory tracked with the manufacturer barcode, each seller’s sourced inventory of the same ASIN is stored separately in our fulfillment centers. We can also track the original seller of each unit.

So at least their documentation clearly says that each seller's items are stored grouped by seller.
I'm aware, my point is rather that it does something which other apps also do already and did so for much longer, making me wonder if it's going to see any traction. E.g. iNaturalist shows me like 10 observations in the past month for my location. Obsmapp shows me hundreds for the last week.
Line number/ paragraph is also an effective reference, specially with section number. Pages sound like forcing a round peg (specificpaper format) into a square hole ( digital docs)
I'd like to reframe this, I think there's only one way to know if someone is a good fit for you - to have a proper, real, deep coaching session. As a software founder I have the idea of a "trial" baked into me, so I think this is no different here. I sometimes coach people for weeks at a time (there's no payment), so that both of us know whether this is right for us (I have the privilege that money is not an issue for me). So that I think is the most powerful, because at that point someone can truthfully commit and go all in and I think for a coaching partnership to be successful, that's the only way in my mind. When someone asks me I often say "let's coach and you can make up your mind after...", this really takes the pressure off, which can otherwise dilute a process that I think is honestly, holy in my book. In other words, if there's a coach you think could be helpful, ask them for a free, full-on coaching session so you can understand if there's a good fit.

And the most effective means to tune in in my experience are simply finding ways to slow down. Pausing, in talking, in walking, being in places that are less crowded. Tuning in during a walk in a park is much easier than in a busy restaurant. And pointing things out that you notice if someone is really charged about something, although that is a delicate process of course. But that's where I'd start.

As somebody who spends most of their time on the Celtic and Nordic fringes, Im a big fan of non-breathable PU (fishermans) waterproofs.

I think breathability is an overrated quality for waterproof fabrics. Zips and vents combined with waterproofness and robustness is the way to go.
I think they intentionally hide it depending on what the product is. Intentional or not, it doesn’t meet my use case, and when I go shopping, I’m willing to pay a premium to not have to worry about quality of the product.

That’s what training Samādhi is, thats why Buddhists develop single pointed focus and use the breath as an object.

Very cool actually. There is one difference to the loops of our trips and the loops thats broken by conscious single pointed effort.

Our drug induced loops are, i find, broken by an emotional acceptance, while the loop broken by intense focus is that of the suffering of existing.

I tried to meditate on LSD and honestly i dont think we are capable of the feat of trying to focus while on it. Meditation sort if opens a door veeerrryyy slowly, and even that goes wrong sometimes, while i find that the experience of LSD is like a flood. Well beyond containing.

Maybe if a zen master tried it, but i suspect that a truely awake person wont be effected by LSD like we do, he would just shrug “ofcourse”
Yes to all you said.

But.

My mother is over the moon with her airpods (not pro) and the iphone 5s I gave her a year ago: now she can watch tv, listen to music and sit where she fancies without worrying about anything else.

Yes, she is short of hearing. This device despite having alternatives just solved her problem.

The alternatives may be there. These things are just known, easy to use and useful.
I never really was fond of this idea.

I like pages as they allow me to visually separate content in smaller chunks, even more so than paragraphs alone which I find especially useful when going through very technical documents.

I really like PDFs for the same reason while some are saying pages in a digital document makes no sense. To each their own I guess.
But violence is the same as disagreement plus enforcing your opinion.

You obviously can't get rid of disagreement. And enforcing your opinion is the bedrock of change.

So I don't believe it's possible to get rid of the desire for violence without stagnation.

You can certainly get rid of it in action, but the desire is still there, just suppressed.

Just a strange thought: Education will lag behind if its looking for waves of jobs. I think one can bet on a thing before it becomes the next newfangled hipster must have/employee not found error. Things might cowabunga if the instructor had the student hit the beach before the waves come? Maybe in 2020 there will be linux mobile devs sitting next to the ios and android devs? One could have anticipated that how many years ago?
The author of the Tweet thread said that he freelances because he doesn't want to be like friends of his "who barely get to see their children, stuck at the office 12 hours a day so their family can have a good life."

My comment meant to point out that perhaps the underlying issue is that people are being overworked as regular employees, and there are larger structural issues here than the details of some recent change in CA state law.

I do not know, and the author of these tweets does not describe, the structural reasons which prevent him from getting a part-time job for at least equal benefits as being a freelancer.

Are you working 84+ hours a week and seeing less than you want of your children because you feel like you need to work the equivalent of two jobs in order to have a good life for your family?

Because if so, why aren't you able to work only a 40 hour week and still make a good living?

If not, how is your personal story related to the thread?
A Super Mario Guitar Made from 10k Lollipop Sticks
I used an noname USB floppy disk to read HD floppies. I believe they are quite standard stuff but I guess the 400K and 800K DD floppies are different story.

Both Linux and current Mac OS X can read HFS formatted floppies and CDs nice and dandy.

Of course using some version of Mac OS is better than using Linux as it handle's HFS resource forks without problems and you get the file associations based on forks. With Linux you need to figure out file types and then add some file type endings.

This is fine for cross platform stuff like images and text documents but Mac only stuff like Hypercard files is hard as then you probably need to add missing resource type data with ResEdit with old or emulated Mac.

There might be a way to to map file endings to resource types with Mac's File Exchange or so but it was so long ago I'm not sure if I remember the Control Panel's name used for this correctly.

Nothing a billion dollars in bribes couldn't alleviate. Which is why India is "changing the rules" in the first place. Look at how much their civil servants make, and then look at their lifestyles, and it'll all be clear as day.

Most do behave like Scrooge McDuck they park the money in real estate, bonds, stock and gold. If the billions of dollars tax breaks the very rich get were spend on the poor it would stimulate the economy and would create jobs a lot more. The way the economies of most countries work these days is 90%-10% is the take of rich and poor. But as poor have to spend all they have and rich don't. The wealth keeps shifting towards the rich if it is 90%-10% today it will be 95%-5% 5-10 years from now.
Color e-paper will be the big new e-reader trend
There are a whole bunch of reasons (physiological and psychological) why getting a cut like that produces a delayed sensation of pain. Psychologically, if you're deeply concentrated in something (e.g. immersed in listening to music), you might be subject to a form of delayed perception. Physiologically, the cut area may not send pain signals until an inflammatory response mounts against the bleeding. These could combine to produce a significant delay in your (conscious) perception of the wound, even without something like the AirPods.

(One could argue the degree to which it isolates you from the environment acoustically might also be insulating you from heeding your environment at all - sounds like something that might be worth studying!)
there are already "offer walls", i.e. incentivized actions that reward users with small amounts of money. Or users could e.g. be rewarded if their amazon reviews are highly rated. there is an incentive for websites to do that. it doesnt even have to be about ads

In case you want to read some other comments, a version of this story was also discussed here 11 days ago at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21779174 .
It was! :) But things are mostly better now. One striking difference is that in the PC world back then, getting a sane programming environment was quite hard if you didn’t have someone to show you how to do it. Many compilers/IDEs were commercial and too expensive for kids who just wanted to try out programming. I had a PC but I had no idea that Perl, Python or Scheme/Common Lisp even existed.
As somebody who lives in PNW, my take is the exact opposite: waterproofness is the overrated quality, because the most commonly used fabrics are way more waterproof than necessary to completely block out even extremely heavy rain. On the other hand, breathability means a lot less sweat on the move. The difference between e.g. classic Gore-Tex and NeoShell is night and day.

I moved overseas 15 or so years ago, and when I left I felt that this tradition was already on the way out. As far as I understand, it's been going away even more since then, but I don't have much in the way of evidence.

When I wad a kid in the 80's, they barely ever showed any Disney cartoons on TV. This meant that the Disney on christmas tradition was a big thing. These days it's available everywhere so there is really nothing to drive the tradition, any i believe that the only ones who even care about it are my age.

apt update doesn't install anything. It's more like git fetch, it just downloads a list of available versions.
I should have specified that this took place in France. Engineering students, are first introduced to probability during the CPGE (intensive math, physics, economics, 2 or 3 year track). Said introduction is based on measure theory (sigma algebras, Lebesgue integral, etc). Once at a statistics engineering school, all of the stats courses are based on probability and measure theory. Then you get into martingales and Markov chains and the rest of the stochastic processes follow along.

I think that many people don't realize that Statistics is heavily based on probability, so basically anything "stochastic" shouldn't be that far fetched.

By the logic of our current economic models (along with our observations of thousand years of economic history), we don't even have to figure anything out. As technology advances and capital accumulates without population growth; consumption per capita and wages go up, and rent of capital goes down. However, cutting down population growth (along with economic growth) is usually not in the nations' interests.
I experimented with different waterproof membranes a lot, and the one that seems to really breathe the best not just on paper is Polartec NeoShell. It also has a correspondingly lower waterproof rating, but still high enough to be fully rainproof. The downside (or the upside, depending on your perspective) is that it's not windproof - you can very much feel the gusts going through it. It's also not as sturdy as Gore-Tex.
I took a major hit to my ego when I tried to make a game and failed. Actually, I didn't fail, I implemented exactly what I was thinking of doing, I just was too young to realize I wasn't incapable I just hadn't thought up a plan... Which I guess was incapable in a sense, but not in technical skill, but just overall creativity and execution. It took me a long time to remember all of that and go easy on my 7 year old self.
Not wholly related, but interesting: Szechuan (Sichuan) food, which is probably one of the more popular Chinese varieties in the US, has been decidedly non-authentic for decades due to the omission of huajiao (Sichuan peppercorns), which were illegal to import for decades up to 2004 and restricted until 2017. Only since 2017 have they been fully unrestricted; imports will likely rise over the next while.

Huajiao is very unique among Chinese food ingredients. It is the so-called "numbing pepper", which produces a mild numbing feel on the lips and (in my opinion) enhances the spiciness considerably. It's really unfortunate that Americanized Sichuan food has had to do without this spice for nearly 50 years.

If you're a fan of spicy food, give real Sichuan food (with the huajiao peppercorns) a try sometime - you might be very surprised at the difference.

> Well it worked for China

What worked for China was acting a fool for a few decades. No rules, no regulations, nothing.

Like a boa constrictor, staying motionless, allowing its prey to feel completely relaxed, then slowly but surely, tighten its grip until it's too late for the prey to escape.

With its proximity to China, India could have had China's business.
FWIW Goretex XCR is now called Goretex Pro, and is really good shit. Not least when it comes to durability, I have an old XCR jacket from 2004 that's seen around 500 days of skiing before it started showing poor waterproofness last year.
