Is there any evidence to suggest that this is true? The new york times denies it, and it doesn't really pass the smell test.

If someone can provide a reason for why they might want to do this I might consider it, but I can't think of one that would remotely make sense? It would provoke outrage and reflect badly on the paper, and the address would need to be important to the story. It's not similar to the slate star case, since publishing someones address is not a normal journalistic practice.

Now I know of no reasons that the NYT would publish his address, and there are reasons why Tucker Carlsen might want to accuse them of publishing his address, such as him trying to deflect from the current accusations of sexual harassment.
This misses the point of the example, though. The point is that not all labor has the same value. Albert Einstein's thoughts produced a lot more social utility than mine do, for instance.

In a way it's definitely fascinating to see how enterprising people have taken advantage of available resources to set up business ventures

But I can't deny it's all a little concerning. The stuff about exploiting animals, insecurities (the fairness cream stuff), skirting government regulations (wonder what led to the credit card restrictions) etc. Then again, I can't pretend to know about the life of a Bangladeshi so though I may silently judge, I admit it is borne of ignorance

I'm unaware of the local startup scene but I hope in a similar vein to Flipkart in India, someone starts a way for these people to move away from the controlling influence of Facebook and sell on more regulated spaces
For metastasized cancers yes. But for primary cancers? Not such much.

Patients need to step up and actively talk to multiple doctors if they want to get a complete picture.

You are indeed right!
> There needs to be more debate and measure in the way we present animal pain and animal exploitation, which I believe are both acceptable. I wouldn't hit my dog! But I understand that we need to put down dogs in animal shelters without calling it a mass murder.

> When you say "livestock enslavement is problematic" you're stating an opinion as if it were a fact.

No but it IS a fact, if you agree you wouldn't hit your dog, I suppose that when you "put it down", you would also prefer to do it painlessly instead of giving it to a slaughterhouse that operates on such a scale that it can't quite 100% guarantee your dog might not dangle half-alive on a meat hook for a minute (or other types of accidents that definitely do happen).

If you agree that treating a dog like that IS problematic, we're doing this to animals that are literally just as intelligent and loving as dogs (namely, pigs), on a massive industrial scale.

Sure, I also consider myself sufficiently superior to animals to justify eating them.

But the way they are treated in the bio industry is absolutely problematic, for a various number of reasons actually.
Is there anything, anything that this administration could do that you wouldn’t immediately spin and shit on?
I think that this is extremely bad to rely on large corporation lik FB to control the economy.

But,i also think that it is not the mistake of people because they are forced to sell like this by society.

Imagine selling items to people on Unknown Social Media Platform in Bangladesh. Is it possible? No, because people are not using it. FB is popular for selling because, society uses it more than other platforms in Bangladesh.

So,some other third party E-Mart company(other than FB) probably of their country should notice it and solve the platform. Government's help can also be of great use.

As a corollary, there’s much discussion about the benefits of screening for prostate cancer. The procedure itself carries some risks, and it can lead to operations that add further risks, a significant fraction of which statistically aren’t necessary.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_cancer_screening:

“A 2018 United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) draft adjusted the prior opposition to PSA screening. It suggests shared decision-making regarding screening in healthy males 55 to 69 years of age. The final recommendation for that age group states screening should only be done in those who wish it. In those 70 and over, screening remains not recommended.”

The idea here is to screen people who both have a relatively high risk of having prostate cancer and statistically have long enough to live for it to become problematic, but even for that group, screening still isn’t a clear win.

And this is for the USA, where, in general, sending in the cavalry and doing something is preferred over a “wait and see” approach.

I've only had one therapist but she was extremely good. And she would ask a lot of questions. She'd get me to untangle a lot of my thought processes. She'd ask me about the past and have me dig into that and really ask tough to answer questions that forced me to think about why I thought the way I did. It took probably a good dozen or so sessions to get to the point where I was relatively healed and even then it took some time after, but by then I was able to regulate my anxiety on my own.

Which absolutely has nothing to do with "animal pain and animal exploitation", which the GP believes is acceptable, and was using the killing of their dog, somehow as .. I'm not sure how their argument works, because obviously the way we exploit animals is nothing like the way we would gently send a puppy to their final resting place in puppy heaven.
Yeah but what does the "modern web" really get you anyway? I use the web to get information, you don't need most of the features of the "modern web" to get that same information.

You're right, the editor does not open on touch screens in this version.

It's still possible to enable editing on touch screen, but it asks for a custom <input> element on the page that interacts with the grid, using methods setCellValues & getCellValues. It's certainly possible. Will put up a demo for it when I find the time.

>Paleontological data from Mexico show a dry period extended between 500 and 1150 A.D. Mayans where wipped just by environmental problems and climate change after they distroyed the nature trying to feed their growing population

This is 500-1000 years before the Spanish invasion. About as long ago as the Spanish conquest is to us. It is not a relevant event when considering the population at the time.

>Is adopted because it fits with the narrative but is also possible that the population numbers given to invaders were inflated for tactical purposes.

The narrative is that most of the death happens well outside the knowledge of the invaders, there isn't much trust in the invaders estimates as a whole.
I also thought about that every time before I started therapy. Often multiple problems are leading to symptoms and you are not able to pinpoint the exact problem. You don't have to. And often it is not just one thing, it never was for me. That's exactly why you going to therapy. You can start by telling you're needing help because you at a point where you cannot fix your issues anymore yourself and then just start with one of your issues, it will flow way easier than you think.

Never forget, the therapist probably had hundreds of patients like you with the same problem getting started which means he probably knows a thing or two to help you get started :)
The word 'regulation' implies some sort of rather severe punishment if you disregard it. Technically speaking I don't think there is a law (or regulation, either) on the books on my country so minor that I couldn't theoretically get arrested or have all my assets taken away from me if I absolutely, publicly, and persistently refuse to follow it. Even practically speaking, I'm not sure how far disobediance can be pushed. Not far, I suspect, on an individual level.

Facebook doesn't have anywhere near the power of a regulator. Not even the same conversation. No link at all. If the best deal isn't on Facebook people will go elsewhere.

When I went the question wasn't "What is wrong" it was "What brought you here, and what do you want to be different at the end of this". I think if you give an honest answer to either question that can be a pretty good starting point. Even if you feel your honest answer isn't specific enough (e.g. "I just want to feel like I am worth something" or "after this maybe I don't want to kill myself" or "I want to be able to enjoy myself more") the therapist can start there.

And really a large part of therapy seems to be diagnosis, with the added benefit that the clarity you get from working towards diagnosis (and the ability to confide in someone) already being helpful.

I would suggest just going to see someone and being as honest about why you are there, and what you hope to change as you can bear. The therapist will take the conversation from there. And if you ever feel resistance to being honest about something, just say that. You aren't required to be fully open about everything.

And no therapist is ever going to sit there thinking you are an idiot. They are there to help people, and they probably recognize that seeking help is hard. I think they will appreciate and respect the effort it takes for someone to seek help. They certainly won't ridicule someone for not knowing exactly what they want. Because they know how hard that stuff is when it comes to mental well-being.
I had similar experience, but can't say my therapy was a huge success. When gotten familiar with my situation, my therapist said the we need to build trust and that she's gonna do the work that my parents failed to do.

I was initially much more inclined to have "here's my habits and behavior patterns, tell me what to fix there" type of sessions. Then I tried to play this game of trust, but the idea of trusting and leaning on someone who sees me once a week to do job and get paid seemed just wrong.

You don't actually have to say anything. The therapist is expert in asking questions. There is no burden on you to self-diagnose.

You can even truly leap the conversation forward with something as simple as what you wrote in your message:

"I have issues I'm struggle to fix myself"

That is as good a place to start as any, but there is no expectation for you to come to the meeting ready to say that. And you will lose nothing by not saying it.

My advice, after long experience, is simply to go in the moment and see what becomes of it. The prize of health is worth it.
I bought three of these as gifts we had a pretty good experience with the hardware, but the social features integrated into the operating system disappointed me. my 6 year old daughter was getting harassed by another user. Everything she was saving was getting posted to a social forum, a user was sending her messages about everything she did, there was no way to block the messages, except to disconnect from all the online features that included all the educational content.

The Kano teams response at the time was was: 'The design of Kano world sort of mimics Twitter, which means that shares are open to comment by the Kano World community. ... comment deleting is disabled on it is because there have been cases where a lot of users were excluded and bullied by having their comments deleted' I think this is an unsatisfactory unsophisticated response for a product aimed at children

Perhaps this is now improved?

Kano redesigned their online features several times, and my kids lost all their work and lost interest. But not until they had completed the learn to use the terminal adventure, which led to us playing zork.
The real false positive rate is much higher than the 5% reported.

The false positive rate reported is ~5% in a sample with an equal number of people that did and did not develop cancer, while the ratio in reality is 1/122 (i.e., 1000 people developed cancer, 122000 did not).

Could still be a useful development, but it does make me wonder about the cost/benefits at this stage.
Let's keep it very simple here. What possible justification can you have to force another being with feelings to suffer?

By the way, even the part of "something "suffering psychologically" is not unsurmountable" is quite often unjustifiable, such as when psychological suffering is caused by the environment and there is no way to escape the environment.
We've been racing to deliver it for windows; at this point I can't say that linux works, although the hardware should be capable (https://gadgetversus.com/processor/intel-celeron-n4000-geekb...). We are working to validate and make a simple tutorial for beginners.
I'm at 2.5k, almost always playing as pos 5 winter wyvern. I'm under no impression that I'm great at dota :)

At this level with the same position and firstpicking ww I get a small subset of heroes I play with and against, so it's much easier to call. I have pudge and sniper every other game for example, and enemy pos 5 is very often cm or ogre :) It's a great day I get to play vs meepo or oracle but it almost never happens. The best I can hope for is axe or legion.

Also half the fancy strats don't work because people don't talk. Split-pushing is just split-feeding. Nobody does 3-lanes. Jungling is a last resort of carry that lost the lane and when he's fat the barracks are already destroyed.

So if we lost laning hard enough and have earlier-game cores than the enemy - we lost, it just takes a lot of time to play out.

But even if I was wrong 30% of the time instead of 1o% - I'd still happily take that trade in mmr if I could. Obviously pro players have different motivation so for them it's "never surrender", but almost nobody is a pro.

There is a difference between advocating for legalized euthanasia and advocating for a total and utter right to end one's own life at any point for any reason.

OP seemed to argue for the latter, and who you are replying to argued against the latter. Now you seem to say that they should not argue against the former, which they were not arguing against.
This really rubbed me the wrong way, the closing sentence sums it up: "What if a doctoral program’s prestige arose, in part, from the way that it treated its students? We should dare to dream of such a thing."

There is a huge problem in academia where the number of PhDs is growing exponentially, and the number of positions is staying basically flat. I strongly disagree with this "participation award" mentality of "you deserve it." It's... leading a lot of people to make really stupid career decisions and I think a lot of people are doing it just to get this gilded club to bludgeon people who don't have PhDs -- that's the only reason I can think of for a person to hope for an "easy" PhD experience.

My advisor being rough at the right times (and in good spirit) was absolutely essential to the defense, which is essentially gladiatorial combat against your father (well, mother in my case), when both you and your advisor hope you can defeat the master in your specific realm. I would not have been able to do it if my advisor pranced about making everything pleasant and easy and convenient.
Yeah, that's the joke....

Ask HN: Cloudflare incorrectly banned me – can anyone help?
Hello HN,

The TLDR; 10 days ago I was banned from Cloudflare allegedly for "phishing". I have never phished, nor used Cloudflare to proxy illegal content.

I am a long time HN user but I created a throwaway account to avoid being linked to my employer.

10 days ago I got an email saying my account was suspended for "phishing". I contacted Cloudflare support immediately and within 60 seconds I got a reply saying my account was permanently banned with no further information. I think this was an automated response. I followed up explaining my account had never been used for "phishing" and it hosted a number of small businesses and would they reinstate it. I never got a reply.

My downfall must been related to Cloudflare Workers. I used it to create some apps including proxies that modified mainstream news websites. They acted as uBlock + Stylish for locked down computers where I could not install browser extensions. I did not share these with anyone, but I did not secure them with HTTP auth. I didn't think anyone could guess the xyz.abc.workers.dev URLs to access the proxies but automated software must have detected them and flagged them as phishing sites.

I was too clever for my own good, but I was not malicious, I did not abuse the Cloudflare platform and I never phished. I just created an application for my own personal use. I do not think any Clouldflare engineer looking at my Worker code would think it was malicious in any way. My account had current billing details and I was a paying customer in the past.

Lessons learnt: Don't be clever and security is ALWAYS important.

I would like to continue using Cloudflare. I worry I will be banned from their other services. If I was blocked at an IP level, it would be far more devastating than being permanently blocked by Google.

If anyone can help me, even just to clear my name, I would very grateful to you.
Regarding (c), have a look at this jekyll theme [1] for photo galleries.

Jekyll is really nice to use, but the photo galleries are pretty few and far between.

Disclaimer, I couldn't get this to deploy using Github pages (which is nice) because it uses unsupported plugins. I have it split across two branches and works nicely enough. Certainly the most responsive gallery I've found.

This. Anecdotally one Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) senior Professor told me that normally the best achievers of their undergraduate students go to US for work or further studies after graduation, the middle achievers work in India and the bottom achievers mostly continue their study at IIT with India govt's sponsorship. According to him even the bottom achievers are actually still good students since they graduated from IIT.

Since there are currently 23 IITs, the numbers that go to US (and SV) every year can be very significant. The long term effect of this phenomenon can be observed from the increasing number of US (and SV) tech companies CEOs are from India education background.

I watched the whole Jio AGM 2020 presentation. All the board members were present, through video conferencing ofcourse as were the Ambani family members who are the majority shareholders of Reliance Industries and are directors on the various companies' board of the parent group. What nepotism are you talking about? Is RIL a govt entity where it is illegal to appoint one's relative? As majority shareholders they can appoint whomever they want. Two criteria for appointments that come to mind: Trust and Competencies. For the latter they have hired many global as well as Indian executives to run Jio. For eg. Matthew Oomen who is Rel Jio's president was previously Sprint Nextel's CTO.
