I took 1000 consecutive cold showers after studying the Wim Hof technique. It was awesome, and I still sometimes take a cold shower instead of hot, just for fun.

Did I gain any super human abilities like Wim claims he can teach? Nah, I just enjoy the cold. I'm that weirdo that wears shorts all winter, shovels the snow barefooted and dresses inappropriately for the weather, according the the comments everyone seems to need to tell me.
First, the other commenters are correct. Your tone is needlessly hostile. Would you talk to a cashier like this? Or a peer at work? I hope not.

Anyway, related to your actual post – you said:

> Buckle up and get it done, it's that simple.

Would you tell a depressed person

> Cheer up and go outside, it's that simple.

If so, what evidence do you have that this is an effective treatment?

If not, what makes the two situations (w/r/r "culpability" for ones cognitive abilities) different?
"maybe"?

Yes, the middle ground is called designing the pump so it doesn't burn out if the filter doesn't allow the right amount of water through. Having an RFID chip doesn't prevent the genuine filter from becoming clogged.

Maybe you need to suspended disbelief, and imagine that it is possible that people do have mental health issues with various causes, perhaps genetic or because of trauma, and that some of those issues might cause people to "procrastinate", which I have put in quotes as it sounds like a pejorative anyway.

I am interested where your viewpoint comes form, can you elaborate? Maybe you are trolling? Or in your experience of life, people and your own mind can you bootstrap your way out of anything going on in your mind?

In the US a manufacturer can not invalidate a warranty for arbitrary reasons, they must prove that the owner's use or modification was the primary cause of a failure.[1]

There is, as you can see from Wikipedia[0], an encrypted version(esni), but that only sort of solves the problem. See [1] for more details on those.

The high level overview is, perfect secrecy of who you are talking to is a very hard problem on the Internet, and while some of these new features might help, there are a LOT of leaks to plug, so if someone is able to watch your traffic go by, chances are they can tell who you are talking to, but they maybe can't figure out what you are saying. Which may or may not matter, depending on your security threat(s).

A resounding YES! But Org-Mode and TRAMP are so well written about that although I have "special" setup for these in my config I felt I could not do more justice than other expert write-ups. Maybe, I should add them in a separate entry.

If it were real smart it would make you believe you are not technically able to refute its argument about needing maintenance.
Would something like a "using unauthorized filters voids your warranty" agreement suffice? I can understand the manufacturer's desire to avoid costly repairs caused by shoddy aftermarket parts, but I don't understand the idea of rendering the end product totally unusable.

To put it another way, should my car stop running entirely if it detects that I'm using a "non-GM-certified" cabin air filter?
Of course it does that. That feature was debuted around 2024, and was present in most mainstream household appliances by 2029.
I like the pageantry and ceremony of paper ballots at specific voting locations followed by manual paper ballot counting. I know in principle it's easy to automate this away by introducing online voting and other things ...

Keep paper ballots because they are inefficient.
>> Would you say illegal actions taken by the president are relevant to whether they should continue to have power?

Absolutely and immediately, once convicted, but that hasn't happened. And to emphasize my point about party lines - how much do you want to bet it won't happen?

But let's be clear that my first comment was tongue-in-cheek. I'm not saying the president ACTUALLY has more power depending on the party. I'm saying that things people were fine with under Obama are suddenly a problem under Trump. And I will expect the same thing next time there's a Democrat in office - suddenly Republicans will flip-flop on the way the office is supposed to operate.

edit: Maybe a more appropriate question is, among people who label themselves as "Democrat" and "Republican", who thinks that Trump should lose power after his impeachment, who also thinks that Clinton should have lost power after his impeachment?
I can't believe they've received three quarters of a billion dollars of investment.

I’ve looked at a lot of budgeting apps. In order of priority, I want:

1. Don’t be evil (aka don’t be intuit)

2. Web based with some sane security (2fa, encryption at rest, etc)

3. The ability to sync transactions from my bank.

4. Budgeting/reporting.

5. Some sort of sane forecasting. You’ve got N months of data from a customer, why can’t you tell them in 6 months this account is expected to have $x in it?

6. Sane APIs.

No one I’ve been able to find has been able to do all 6 of these.
I did pretty much the same, although I managed to get the 16k RAM version. I've still got my old TRS-80 in the loft, eventually with the expansion box and couple of disk drives. Each single-sided 5.25" floppy held a massive 90k, then someone worked out that if you punched a timing hole in the cover in the right place you could put the floppy in upside-down and use the other side too.

Like you, I cut my teeth on the TRS-80 and wrote my first commercial program around 1982, a graphics drawing tool (written in Z80). It sold maybe a dozen copies, but was a start. I've got fond memories of EDTASM and T-BUG, the assembler and debugger.
There's certainly been outcry over opening men-only domestic violence shelters (because it was thought they'd draw away some government funding that could instead be used for even more women's shelters).

It's hard to quantify that "risk" in simple terms, but --disabled-password is a basic must as it seriously mitigates popular attack vectors like brute forcing.

Filtering ssh connections at firewall level helps, and certainly reduces log entries for port scans and can halt less sophisticated attackers, but it doesn't mitigate attack vectors like a DDoS or a well funded actor.
Yes, they could defeat the pihole by hard coding IPs, but that would cause a whole range of other headaches and would most likely not be worth doing.
This happens to me a lot, but it often ends up being 5+ minutes lost.
This would also be very fishy to anyone who inspects the source code. Immediately they would ask "uh where did this giant file of floats come from?"

One approach would be to write some handcrafted rules/features that look likecthey were plausibly a priori, but have the effect of memorizing the scraped data. (I don't know if this is actually possible.)

User KaoruAoiShiho is probably right that any approach along would look out of place. Coupled with the fact that its removal would massively boost accuracy, it's hard to imagine how this would get past a curious reviewer.

Perhaps peer review should be a component of the Kaggle process.

> I have never had this happen nor heard of it happening

I've canvassed in New Jersey where one spouse was surprised by the other's party registration, and had two incidences where it broke into an argument in front of me.

> someone demanding to see my vote counts as a felony still in our state

The line between demanding or requiring and politely, but firmly, requesting is legally blurry and practically meaningless.

Agree this is an edge case problem. (I support mailed-in ballots.)
Not necessarily.

I used to always buy genuine HP cartridges, sold by Amazon (not a third-party seller,) with official packaging, non-tampered unbroken sticker on the box, and yet one day my printer reported a cartridge as "non-genuine" and absolutely refused to accept it. Maybe the chip malfunctioned. But since that day I have stopped buying genuine and I replaced them with recycled third party cartridges. A third of the cost. And they never caused this problem. A defective system caused HP to lose a customer.
The RFID chip doesn't prevent that, but the fridge will no longer dispense water after a certain number of gallons passes through the filter.
>QE has impoverished us all (except for the fat bankers).

Independent Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants: A Doc's View
> It should be hard to cause political change. Most new ideas in politics are truly awful and failures at that level affect society gravely.

Part of the problem is that the left has erased all evidence of the failures of progressive politics (and in many cases the right has let them do so). When you just hear about the civil rights movement and marriage equality, it’s easy to assume that conservatives are just there to hold everyone back.

I’d offer three examples. First, “socialism.” Socialism failed dismally. One of the most colossal failures of a political idea in modern history. So progressives endeavored to replace “socialism” with “social democracy.” But “social democracy” as practiced in Europe approaches the problem from the complete opposite end. It abandons the socialist economic model and builds on a capitalist one. Put differently, it’s not “socialism with more democracy” it’s “capitalism with more democracy.” So progressives have turned social democracy—which is more than anything an affirmation of the success of capitalism, and an utter retreat from what progressives were pushing before—into a win for progressivism.

The second is the sexual revolution. At least in the United States, we have retrenched significantly on that front. Millennials start having sex later, and have fewer partners. “Affirmative consent” has replaced “free love.” The boundary-pushing on things like age have been pulled back hard. The #MeToo movement reaffirmed conservative truths: men cannot be trusted and society has a role to play helping women stave off unwanted and inappropriate advances. (Andrea Dworkin addresses this at length in Right Wing Women, though obviously long before #MeToo. In explaining why many women continue to support patriarchal systems, she notes that the sexual revolution stripped women of a lot of protections that those systems used to provide, with nothing to replace them. While Dworkin was obviously no conservative, she astutely recognized that the progressive tendency to throw out rules can easily end up overreaching. Many have lamented that the #MeToo movement is a return to a more Puritanical approach. There is a lot of truth to that.)

Third, eugenics. The history of support for eugenics in this country has been pretty much erased, even though the evils of Jim Crow get plenty of attention. That’s likely because many progressives backed eugenics. Woodrow Wilson, progressive champion, was a former New Jersey Governor and eugenicist who segregated the federal work force for the first time. He fired existing black federal employees (proving he wasn’t just a product of his time). Meanwhile, one of the strongest opponents of eugenics was the Catholic Church. In 1930, the Pope released an encyclical in which he condemned birth control, abortion, and eugenics as all being incompatible with the traditional Christian view of reproduction.

Types of Truth
You can order a bypass filter from GE (they are free). Cut the RFID from it and tape it to your fridge in the right spot and it will never complain about the filter again.

The only downside is that when you dispense water it lights up a little sign that says "water is not filtered".

I do this and buy cheap aftermarket filters from Amazon.
That is unreal. Fountain soda/pop is already dirt cheap for vendors.

Some products destined for government require a certain percentage being made in the country. Voters like that sort of thing. As if you spend 50K on a national hire, you might be able to spend 20K on imported hardware.

There's another weird factor. Ritalin is an upper and it's stigmatized to take an upper - either your performance, judged by coworkers, will be equivalent or below theirs and the stimulant is seen as the only thing keeping you in your job (which can get super depressing internally) - or, if you're doing well in your position, it can breed internal and external doubt as to whether your performance would just be normal and is being boosted by the drug.

It's kinda hilarious that, when going off Ritalin, things don't slow down (or become "less upped by the upper") they stop - this article touches on it but ADHD can feel the most torturous when it impedes even your leisure - especially when coupled with depression. Ever spent a day off staring at a wall dreading the possibility that you might waste a day until you realize the sun has gone down? Yup, so much fun.

When I read this I took it as something special the parks were doing because of how expensive the drinks are there and not something the soda companies are themselves engaging in. Not to say they are blameless as they likely did work with the parks in doing so, but I thought the primary cause was the parks and not the soda company.
Dear Microsoft,

Shit like this literally undoes every bit of goodwill you earn. Much like replacing user's wallpaper for Win7 EOL (why you didn't just put notification text like "Windows $VERSION - End Of Life - Unsupported" in the bottom corner instead is beyond me).

I mean, I WANT to see the new MS, which is really present on the developer tools and azure side of the business. Windows and Office teams seem to be bent on destroying that at every chance... it's time to fire some upper and mid-level managers that have these attitudes and make these decisions.

You have a nice simple solution to a simple problem. Do you just do a ‘recompile’ in the IEx shell?

Docker for me became easier after the whole switchover and not being involved in Linux land for a few years. Many parts that I’d built up muscle memory from years back are different. Now I login to a recent rev of a Linux distro and I have to spend time looking up how network interfaces are now handled, how to create a service, how to look at logs. Docker CLI has been more stable “api” for me the past few years. Though lately I’m doing embedded, so I just took a Nerves x86 image and got it running on a VPS. Get a minute of downtime when updating a rarely used service seems worthwhile.

They have RFID in the soda dispensers because they want people to buy the $15 "free refill" cup. I have never visited Orlando Universal two days in a row so I don't know if the cup "works" more than 24 hours.
They moved the "Trending" section charts to something SVG based. The "Investment" section charts throws up a "You need Flash error" and now blocks you from navigating to other "Investment" section information even if you just wanted to look at the tables rather than graphs, making the entire "Investment" section a broken window.

You would definitely want that. Here's a common every day example. Imagine for example you use the wrong oil that destroys your engine and when GM inspects the oil they say it was non certified so you need to pay 5k in repairs... I have no doubt you would not have minded if the engine refused to start if it detected the wrong thing.

For anyone with ADHD who finds this long article difficult to read, I'd suggest reading it with the BeeLine Reader browser extension (I'm the founder, and anyone who wants a free 1-month pass can email me via my profile).
