If done right, this is planned for. Yes this year will suck but it’ll go back up and the so called “safe withdrawal rate” accounts for such dips. Besides it’s easier to pick up part time work for a year if you retired before 40 if you need to top up your income than if you retired at the prescribed 65+ years old and are too old to work anymore.
I think there was a word trick there. "becoming a modern front end developer" != "becoming a front end developer", so I guess maybe the guide was for people who already are front end developer, but not modern enough (????)

The real evil I think is when somebody starts to use roadmap like this one to measure other people. Don't do that, my dear comment readers, roadmap is a better tool when you use it against yourself, not the others.
I imagine it would be fairly simple to teach a BGP implementation to use either TCP or QUIC, configurable per-session.

That's interesting. However, the Vue.js library itself uses the "function" keyword a lot, and the library is part of your applications code. Infact, it uses normal functions almost exclusively.

source: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vuejs/vue/dev/dist/vue.com...

Furthermore, the official Vue documentation explicitly discourage the use of arrow functions in some places, so whoever set that rule just did not know what they were doing, sorry if that sounds harsh.

source:

- https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/instance.html#Instance-Lifecycle-...

- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43929650/vuejs-why-is-th...

Saying all arrows functions are bad and evil or that all normal functions are bad and evil is nothing but dogma. Each has its own place and uses, it seems many JS devs would rather not think of this at all and just use one form everywhere.

The key French press cleaning trick is a _fine_ kitchen sieve, not too small, at least 3" wide:

Pull out the French press plunger, add water and drain the resulting mud through the sieve.

A normal small 2" coffee sieve is too small in diameter, it will clog.

The 3" (4" is better, especially for the larger 1L press) allows the water to pass in a fast pour.
And make sure it's a fine sieve, so the grinds stay in.

The grinds mud then goes from the sieve straight to trash.

In store the sieve at the sink with the other cleaning utensils. In direct access storage, so to speak, a local cache even.

> Apple was planning to price the new model from $399

I've been wanting to get off "Google play services" and into a smaller, cheaper phone. I don't need the huge screen and tons of features like my Pixel 2 XL has, I just need a phone, messaging, maps, and sometimes the internet to pay bills and 400 bucks is a pretty good price for a few years of that vs. I think I paid 1200 for my Pixel 2 XL (and the same for my wife!). With this, I could get one for each of us and a spare for the same price as a single phone and lose the Google privacy-ending bullshit at the same time.
These two responses are not equal, as every claim made by anyone should fall into category 1 until proven otherwise. Response 2 admits the possibility of better theories about the world being possible, while refusing to do the actual science that would prove their existence.

Claims about alternative medicine don't even get to start from this generous position because the field has produced reams upon reams of utter-and dangerous-nonsense, so the evidential bar must be set even higher to cut through that noise.

Our collective body of knowledge is not just based on a string of isolated empirical assessments, it has to be integrated into a theoretical framework. Otherwise, you're just left holding a very large bag of statistical anomalies that could basically mean thing anything you want (usually: buy my product!).
We run a bunch of remote paging basestations that utilize satellite, however, they are also backed up with 4G routers which are used instead if the satellite link fails for any reason (rain fade, nuclear missile attack on the satellite hub/network etc).

I think this is spot on. The subject alone makes it different
It's even more interesting in this context. We already know that en expensive placebo works better than a cheap one, that elaborate placebo rituals work better than simple ones etc. This might explain that Reiki placebo is more efficient than Vitamin C placebo. But finding the underlying mechanisms of such actions and the ways the mind can influence subtle processes in the body would be a great breakthrough.

Probably not. The iPhone SE is rumored to basically be an updated iPhone 8, which does not have a headphone jack. The iPhone 7 which preceded it did not have a headphone jack either.

That said, I wouldn't completely discount it as a possibility. If Apple removes 3D Touch that could give them some extra room, and Apple does still sell iPads and an iPod touch with a headphone jack, so it's conceivable they might decide to put one on the SE as well.

Regarding finer grind sizes with the French press, you let it sit. Just wait. Give the press a slight tap at the earliest after 4-5 minutes, so the grinds that floated up to the sieve and that are stuck there with the co2 will also start to sink.

After gently pushing down the plunger give the coffee another minute to let the fines sink down which the push stirred up from the bottom.

The plunger thus rather keeps the sunk grinds and fines down when slowly pouring, it does not filter the coffee.

An excellent cup from the French press takes 5-7 minutes.

It's like French food: best enjoyed slowly.
Yep I live on Reunion. I might be biased, as I was born there, but if you have a job, a decent house, and loves nature living here is quite pleasant. It's like France with less grumpy people, tropical weather but with some third-world issues. Problem is jobs are scarce and aren't well paid (unless you're a french expat) and rents are astronomical.
It might be anywhere from 1-100 years before we make this breakthrough. Most of us dont have that kind of time.

As most of us on hacker news have a very scientific attitude towards life, we can atleast experiment with it. If it works for us, then good. If it doesn't, we can move ahead.

Here's a great review that questions its dubious assumptions about human nature and plot inconsistencies (click the "more" button at the end of "User reviews: LibraryThing member StormRaven"):

https://www.librarycat.org/lib/cctesttc1/item/139177749#

>[...] Eventually, the alien is revealed as is the alien's plot concerning Duncan and the machine used to make him smarter. This is more or less merely a vehicle for Coville to work into the book his argument that humanity is fundamentally inhumane. Duncan's previous behavior, bullying and crude, is contrasted with his nicer, more thoughtful behavior after he has been made smarter. Duncan is also alerted to the fact that the Interplanetary Council (an organization all the alien races of the galaxy belong to) is concerned by the violence and nastiness of humans and is considering what steps to take to neutralize the threat humans pose.

>Coville's thesis may be true, but I have some serious problems with some of the elements of the book. The most glaring is the idea that when Duncan becomes smarter, he also becomes nicer and more humane. One only has to think back on human history to realize that being more intelligent does not seem to correlate in any significant way with being nice. I also think that the way the alien treats Duncan - performing experiments on him without his knowledge, kidnapping and then imprisoning him to use his brain as a communications device - seems to pretty much destroy any claim the Interplanetary Council may have to the moral high ground. Coville's theme, that humans are bad and the aliens are more moral and kind, seems to depend on the idea that whatever bad things the aliens do is justified by circumstance (this is not the first time in the series that an ostensibly non-evil alien has kidnapped and imprisoned an innocent human to further their goals). This sort of moral inconsistency simply saps away some of the message that the books are trying to convey.

>In the end, some dubious assumptions about human nature and some plot inconsistencies regarding the moral nature of the aliens mar an otherwise fun little book about kids dealing with alien teachers. While My Teacher Fried My Brains has flaws that undermine the message of the story, it remains at the very least a decent book for younger readers.

What I like about permaculture is that it doesn't suggest that everyone should be a smallholder. The author comments that it's more sensible to support a local farm that grows sustainably than to try and grow everything yourself (though you can of course!) And in principle, permaculture is a very hacker friendly idea. Everything in your property is placed optimally, which makes for a fun game trying to figure out how to maximise the use of your land whilst minimising negative effects.
The Anarchist Abstractionist – Who Was Alexander Grothendieck?
Depends on the bandwidth charges of the SFU host, mostly that means computing the volume (5.5Mb/s * participants * duration) though some hosts aren't volume billed in which case it might then be a matter of whether sufficient data rate available (drop the duration) or paying for the peak consumed. That's just the A/V conferencing not file sharing or other incidentals one often finds useful.
Empiricism asserts that all knowledge is derived from sense-experience. Skeptics have the audacity to deny the experience of others, relying only upon that which is measurable by an external apparatus. I hear people describe things as "not scientific" which amounts to willful ignorance- the opposite of science. Hard science doesn't assert there are human 5 senses; it merely demonstrates that there are 5(ish) taxonomies for which measurement is currently feasible.

Taking a position as a denier means one is essentially unwilling to expend the energy requisite to study a phenomenon. In our infinitely complex plane we inhabit, that is a valid strategy, given the finite energy that one can expend during their lifetime (something on the order of 16,500 Kw/h). Passively denying a subject is a low energy task, and only risks the opportunity cost of non-participation of something beneficial or of avoiding harm. Actively denying a subject is expensive. Denying climate change, or a spherical Earth, or the existence of Boston, MA, USA takes tremendous mental gymnastics, and sometimes profound time and physical resources.

My own experience with Reiki is limited, but memorable. I was standing in the 4th floor of an office near Pioneer Square in Seattle, chatting with a colleague. He told me that outside of development work, he practices Reiki. I had questions for him about it, but he insisted it was easier to show than tell. He placed his hand on my head and I felt powerful change in my state of mind and a sensation I haven't really experienced before or since. It was like... "wow" - then off to play ping-pong. It certainly gave me a wider aperture on what this life can offer, but I haven't chosen to pursue Reiki in any further depth.

You, from afar without knowing me at all, can feel free to label my experience as placebo, say I'm irrational, or deny that others could have a similar experience. Just know that as you're doing so, you're rejecting empiricism and the essence of science- which is to have more questions than answers.
Having been through psychotherapy, I can affirm it works.

Spending an hour a week with someone patiently listening without judgement while I tell them everything that's been going on in my head. And sure enough, my emotional problems start to recede and I start to be more engaged with life, less depressed, and more able to function.

I don't know if I'd call that placebo, though. I used to thing it was magic; I talk, and my problems vanish. Looking back on it, it was obvious. Almost exactly like explaining to a rubber duck about a coding problem and seeing the answer suddenly. Having another human patiently listen without judgement to all the crap in my head - that's powerful. Even more so when they then hear the worst stuff that we could ever possibly admit to anyone, and gently confirm that this is normal.

Maybe Reiki is "just" someone touching you gently while wishing you would get well. Again I'm not sure I'd call that placebo.

There's something messed up about our cultures that allows these things to work.
Am I allowed to really love them both? I feel like each has its place in branding the agency and being something that people look at and tie to exciting new exploration.

From the article :

"Columbia Cruise Services says Resolute remained in the area until it was clear its services were not required to help in the rescue of the 44 crew members. It then continued on, as planned, to the Port of Willemstad in Curaçao."

Then

"Even if the cruise liner had deliberately sailed within 12 miles of Isla La Tortuga, it very likely would have been legally entitled to do so under the right of innocent passage, unless Venezuelan officials believe the ship of conducting some other prohibited activity."
