I had never-ending problems, and it was always, "There's a network issue." These are speakers, and when I get home from work I'm an audiophile.

I do not want to hook PagerDuty up to my home audio system and manage it like my home is a NOC, thank you very much. I threw out my Play:1s, and my Play:5s are now connected by ethernet. They work just fine, but only in the one room of the house close enough to the router to run CAT5.

At some point, this arrangement will no longer be useful to me, and when it does, these speakers are on their way to landfill.

I get what Sonos were trying to do, but the experience felt like running a PC in the 1980s: Too much incidental complexity for an appliance.

I ditched Sonos's software as well, and firewalled the speakers off from phoning home. I play my audio through Airplay 2, and Life is Fine.

I think calls to get rid of the penny in the US don't go far enough. At least get rid of the nickel, too, and go to $.10 and $.50 coins only. Better yet, and avoiding the need to bring the $.50 piece back into common use, get rid of all coins smaller than the quarter.

If there's practically nothing you can buy with two of a coin, it's probably time for it to go.

> Nutrition research seems to change as often as JavaScript framework of the month.

Nutrition “science”, like most health-related “sciences”, has approximately zero predictive power. A pretty reasonable strategy is to completely ignore whatever helpful advice the FDA or whomever is currently spouting (food pyramid!) and come up with some plausible first-principles model that matches available anecdata, like trying to match a plausible far-ancestral diet.

The real issue is that nutrition science is bad and everyone has a book. Maybe 1 in 20 studies don't have obvious confounding factors that cause us to have no real base facts, but we can find a lot of correlation. Unfortunately, this is kind of the nature of the beast, nutrition science isn't bad because nutrition scientists are bad, but rather because it's so complicated it's tough to have very clean data.

Demonizing fats in favor of sugar as a country has allowed one of the biggest and longest population studies of its kind, and it's pretty obvious from the health of the population that very high calorie, sugar rich diets are overall bad for you (notice the wide strokes we have to make here).

Everyone is different, and no rules apply uniformly to everyone, but general rules do apply to everyone. Fructose in a caloric surplus is more damaging than glucose, for instance, but different bodies are more or less effective at mitigating this. Most people have some inflammation response to gluten, but for the vast majority of people, it's minor. Most things are a sliding scale, on one end is no measurable result, on the other end is acute response.

NOTE: I'm not interested in arguing about what the research says here. I know the pro-gluten party will come out in force, and I've made an enemy with the bread baker's union. I'm not a researcher, I'm just a nutrition hobbyist. There are much smarter people doing much more comprehensive breakdowns and having much more meaningful debates than I can, so go listen to them. Read the research yourself with a skeptical eye. Take all dietary advice with a grain of salt, and check the opposite side of the research, nutrition and biology is WEIRD.

Also, we're still learning very basic things that have massive impacts. No one was talking about "gut health" unless you had a chronic disease roughly 10 years ago. Microbiome didn't have much place in the conversation about health and nutrition, no crossfit people knew about resistant starches, etc.

You can keep the "ride is here" notifications in Lyft but turn the ads off by going to:

For Uber, it's similar: Menu > Settings > Privacy > Notifications > Discounts and News > Off

Your analogy is not very good. General contractors take bids, they don't set the price, they take the best offer for them. And as a sub contractor or GC you can have as many jobs open as you want.

Having children is absolutely a valuable experience! We definitely have coaches who have several children. I think this can cut both ways, though. I was a child psychologist before I had my own children. I don't think it dramatically changed the way I support parents. Mostly because I wasn't working from the framework of my personal experience. What I do with my own children is irrelevant when helping a parent (this is the difference between advice and evidence-based information) - and in fact, there is nothing worse than a therapist saying 'well, with MY kids at every turn (it can be helpful, but you have to be careful)....' Having a child gives you lots of experience, but it doesn't make you an expert in child development (it does help when working with parents, and a LOT of parents appreciate when our coaches have several kids of their own). Also, there are often many ways to get to a goal, and it varies by the child, parent and family. Professionals can often speak to a range of choices (think: sleep) rather than just their own personal experience.

I should also say that we have parents on our service who have 5 children, and tell us each is different, and they still appreciate the support and wisdom.

I turn off all notifications except for sms and calls. And even for sms, i muted most of the operator promotional sms. The urge to check for the phone and the demand that you have to check for this notification was killing me. Surprisingly enough, some people would go nuts when seeing a kid nagging in demand of certain thing, while they are totally ok with their apps doing the exact same thing and even worse

It comes with a gotcha though, as i sometimes check some chat apps awaiting for response, but the good thing is when that happens i notice it, and it is not the norm.
>while I know a lot of vegetarians and a lot of low carbers eating bacon for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

is that because everyone has fallen for an extreme of a fad diet?

It's like everyone comes up with the right observation, and the wrong conclusion. "Low carbs are good, so ill eat fat protein. Meat is fat and protein" instead of "seeds and mushrooms." Or "meat is bad" so "ill eat lots of cereals" instead of "leaves and shoots."

Seeds, shoots, and leaves with some bottom feeding ocean animals is a perfectly doable diet.

When you use terms like "pain", that suggests that RSS is significantly worse than other options in this respect.

I'd argue that it's quite the opposite. Facebook always gives you a blurb. Twitter gives you no more than 280 characters minus the length of a link. Pinterest gives you a picture. RSS/Atom remains the only option where it's at all common to get the whole article without clicking a link and taking a shotgun blast of JavaScript to the face.
>Also encoding ampersands into a URI (URL) using HTML encoding schemes is also common, but that is incorrect.

To encode any string (for example a URL) containing & in HTML, you must HTML-encode that &. Using &amp; in the value of the href attribute for an a-tag must result in a URL containing just & in place of the entire entity. This is a property of HTML that has nothing to do with URLs or URL encodings.

If you're pairing, don't read your e-mail. Even if you're just in a solo work session, don't read your e-mail. It's incredibly disruptive and constant inbox checking will drop your productivity like a rock.

It's okay to pair with multiple workstations (or a single workstation set up for multi-user mode, that's the dream I guess). Looking away from the "main screen" to check docs (or VCS, or the build, etc.) is perfectly fine, just don't get drawn in so deep that you forget about your partner. And certainly don't use that as an excuse to check your e-mail or slack!

One strategy to apply is "show, don't tell". If you have a hard time explaining what you're going to try to do, just do it, the code will probably be clearer than your explanation alone. If it's not, use the conversation to drive the uncovering of assumptions, which can then be encoded in the source.

Remember that pairing isn't simply two people, one keyboard. There are defined roles: the driver and the navigator. The driver handles mechanics, the navigator observes and questions assumptions. Then switch roles. The driver should fearlessly try the experimental things. If the navigator wants to experiment, ask to drive.

Embarrassing but not surprising. Billion dollar startups do not operate like billion dollar companies.

That's kind of the point, but the valuation is very misleading when it comes to expectations like this.
Over the last few years I’ve come to this exact realization as well. I used to think about it as a couple devs sharing a keyboard for interminable stretches and it made my skin crawl. Watching someone “drive” fumbling for buttons in the IDE and not using shortcuts makes me want to shoulder them out of the way and take over.

However, for short bursts (10minutes to max about 90) that are focused on a particular goal makes me feel both re-invigorated and more satisfied with the completeness of the ideas.

The re-invigoratation (for me) comes from not having to run my brain at 100% for the duration. In auto racing terms, my partner and I can take turns drafting off each other’s thoughts, increasing our mental efficiency.

When differences arise I love hearing their thoughts and finding ways to merge the best of both ideas- or completely tossing my own because theirs are better. I’ve heard it (no clue where or from whom) described as idea sex. I’m very okay with my ideas being promiscuous and having lots of better little idea babies.

I still haven’t figured out how to keep my skin from crawling watching people fumble around their UIs though...

An analysis by The Economist finds that democracies—defined here as countries with free and fair elections—tend to be better than other forms of government at containing and treating outbreaks of disease. This holds true for rich and poor countries alike.

Using data from the International Disaster Database, maintained by researchers at the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium, we analysed all recorded epidemics since 1960, from an outbreak of smallpox in Nepal in 1963 to more recent threats such as Zika and Ebola. The results were highly dispersed but a distinct trend was apparent: for any given level of income, democracies appear to experience lower mortality rates for epidemic diseases than their non-democratic counterparts (see chart). In authoritarian countries with China’s level of income, for example, we found that past epidemics have killed about six people per 1m population. In democracies with similar incomes, they have killed just four per 1m.

The difference between democracies and non-democracies is statistically highly significant. The relationship also appears to be robust: it holds when considering only large epidemics (more than 50 deaths), or only epidemics affecting populations in the same geographical region. It also holds when controlling for the year or decade in which the epidemics occurred.

It may seem surprising that democracies, with their notoriously messy bottom-up processes, outperform their authoritarian alternatives on this measure. Urgent health concerns demand urgent action, something not normally associated with deliberative democracy. In Norway, one of the most democratic countries in the world, lawmakers have been debating the location of a new 200-bed hospital for seven years. In China, a new 1,000-bed hospital to treat coronavirus patients was recently built in just ten days.

But authoritarian regimes, although able to co-ordinate massive construction projects, may be poorly suited to matters that require the free flow of information and open dialogue between citizens and rulers. During an outbreak, for example, constructive feedback about how government policies are working can help guide a more dynamic response. Non-democratic societies often restrict the flow of information and persecute perceived critics.

It is possible, I have done it myself eating a lot of eggs and fatty red meat. Also, in my case I was also already in ketosis for an extended period of time, meaning my microbiome and cells were primed for ketosis.

That said I have also done carnivore and also not been in ketosis, which I think is probably the norm for most people on carnivore because the protein/fat ratios aren't right.

The commonality in ketosis carnivore and non-ketosis carnivore is removal of refined sugar/carbs which means no insulin spikes, which means steady levels of energy without crashing.
That’s a bit of a flawed argument. Facebook isn’t the only place online or offline where humans can socialise. Making the argument that staying with Facebook just for one potential (and flawed) avenue for socialising is to ignore myriad other ways to socialise.
