I don't know if I would call the system morbid. This is a way for someone old to get a revenue until he no longer needs it. Often it's used to pay for a retirement home while the people buying the property live in it, thus making it like paying back a mortgage.
I wouldn't say it's misinformation/FUD, if anything they missed a point or two. It's also the main interface to social media platforms with systems that are designed to take as much of your attention as possible, in an effort to use psychology to take ownership of your focus.
Call me paranoid but I'm curious what % of the industry exists because of cavities? How much of a typical dentist office's time is spent repairing cavities?

The lower level certs are easier to pass, and you might end up sounding like an AWS Marketing Parrot.

The higher level certs are the real deal. You will work your ass off to get them, and I don’t think flash cards will help much. But there are sites out there that help you train for the test, and they can also give you sample tests to work from. If you can pass a number of those sample tests with good scores, then you’ll probably do okay on the real tests.

Acloud.guru is used internally with Amazon (and is free for anyone who has an @amazon.com e-mail address), but it’s not the only option out there. John Bonzo has some of the highest regarded AWS training videos in the AWS Training community, and Amazon SDEs have recommended to me the freecodecamp.org videos as well.
I was just told I need a quintuple extraction after having to go to the ER with jaw pain. 4 wisdoms and a molar.

It's too late for those teeth but maybe I can save others.

I've been having some success with toothpaste with NovaMin (has to be purchased outside the US) and mouthwash that contains Dipotassium Oxalate Monohydrate. That is OTC in the US but you have to find the ones with it.
Yes, we will post the numbers soon. However, what I was alluding to in my last comment was that FC runtime performance is far from native (i.e., no VMs). Therefore, there's definitely room for improvement. Depending on the use case, that may or may not be meaningful.
Amazon is a company so they'll just pay lawyers and some under the table deals to make it go away.
>You’ve never seen a YouTube video on here extended to 10+ minutes to get ad revenue when the main point could have been boiled down to a sentence or two?

I can't remember seeing that very often. On the other hand, I've seen plenty of Youtube videos well over 10 minutes that were worth the effort. And the list of submissions from youtube doesn't seem that awful.
Great. So when my device suddenly torrents 10 TB of warez from the tracker at bombasswarezpimps.org I can point to Amazon when the feds come knocking, because clearly it wasn't me. Thanks, Amazon!

That’s definitely true for no orchestration. If the kernel and rootfs is at the jailer location, things are instant. You guys have your owninit system which makes things pretty fast, indeed. I rely on whatever init system is the default for a given os so that adds an overhead because it implies running the app as an upstart / systemd / whatever service.

As a lifelong nightowl, I switched to mornings almost 2 years ago and it’s been great.

Rather than bed at 2am, sleep till 10, I wake up at 5:30am and fall asleep at 10 simply by being tired enough.

The result is that I get better sleep, need less caffeine, have more effective creative time for personal projects, and put my stuff first before the brain is full of work stuff. Oh and the girlfriend says I’m less cranky, more pleasant to be around, and she loves that we go to bed together.

The insight that made it happen: If I can switch to a 9 hour different timezone, why not to waking up early? Body just cares which timezone your circadian rhytm is in, not where you are physically.
> we're more than willing to sell you the data and telemetry we collect

Except they don't, they sell access to targeting based on that data. Google's entire valuation is based on the data they have on users, if others could come in and scoop it up, they would have an instant competitor. I think calling it 'privacy' is the wrong word - Google takes data security and access control seriously, and only Legal and a dozen engineers can actually access data (and even then, it'd be logged and looked into if it was out of the ordinary).

water + vitamins = vitamin water. But that's not what this is. So it's a misleading name.

People shouldn't have to be educated in order to make good decisions. A beverage company shouldn't be misleading people, it should be making beverages and helping people find the beverages they would want if they were educated about them.

This is a great reason to be a founder. No-none gives me shit anymore for working funny hours because I’m on a roll. I’d rather be productive and weird, than half-baked and socially compliant. Plus, I get to make hiring decisions and keep the mediocrity police out.
It's a clever idea. And it seems to work so well that they're going to use it in the F-150 Lightning.
Lovely overview and critique. Richard K Hamming makes your point too in “The Art of Doing Science and Engineering: Learning to Learn”; chapter 2 on rates of progress and the trap of linear perception of exponential change. All looks linear over 10-20 years; but over 50-100 the “exponentiality” of change is shockingly obvious. It is then much easier to perceive the huge phase changes in technology, intelligence, meaning of life and of mind.

Another piece of anecdata here that middle school was far worse for bullying in my life than high school. However, I may be a bit of a special case because I was fortunate enough to be able to attend a single-sex prep high school (male in my case).

Having only boys in my high school meant there were essentially zero cliques, zero drama, and very little reason for bullying. There was no standing with the opposite gender at risk, and thus very little reason to have the standard sort of extreme pecking orders you tend to find in kids of that age. In all the years I was there, there were literally only two fights (in all four years, not just in my class). One amounted to a guy shoving another guy into a trophy case, so it's stretching to even label that a fight.

Single-sex high schools sounds like an antiquated concept, and I was kind of leery of the idea going into it, but my god, I am a huge advocate now. There was an all-girl's school close by, so things like football games still gave you an opportunity for co-ed interactions, but the days themselves were almost entirely distraction free.

By comparison, my mixed-sex middle school was a nightmare. Interestingly, since they were Catholic schools, many of the same kids from my middle school followed me to the high school, so you can't even simply attribute it to there being a different slate of kids. Some of the kids that were nasty bullies in middle school ended up turning into friends of mine by the end of high school.
All they would have to do is "support" the p2p network in chrome/chromium and because of the ease of use the majority of p2p nodes will be running code written by Google.
I just looked up what the folio society is and that book set. Wow! It looks absolutely gorgeous. I really wish I found out about it, guessing they never do reprints?
Not sure why you need the extraction, but for me personally, I had my teeth shift ever so slightly which threw off my bite. Pain was excruciating. The solution was a tiny amount of polishing a few of my teeth so my bite was better lined up.

If someone had told me to remove the teeth because of the pain, I would have said yes.

I’d at least make sure that they tested your bite before you move forward with extraction.

> Google isn't interested in the mail of your random startup

On the contrary: Google is absolutely interested in your startup's email, just not the content you think. They don't care about Susan writing to HR about vacation days, but they absolutely care about your IT manager's correspondences with that Oracle rep that's trying to sell you their cloud offering. That way, Google can advertise the shit out of their competing offerings to you in order to "steal" you as a customer from their competitors.

> Product-wise there is not a thing wrong in the world with GMail.

I'm guessing you haven't been around HN for long enough to hear the myriad of horros stories about entire GSuite orgs being deleted because of things like a false-positive abuse detection on an employee's private account or one pirated movie uploaded by an employee by accident. And how none of them were able to even reach support without going through personal connections at big G (and even then, few were able to get things fixed).

Google is a faceless corporation, managed more by algorithms than by people. You don't need an ideology to tell you why that's bad.
Interesting, I was wondering why I was never really seeing green PCBs anymore except for “boring” pci cards like USB hubs, or wireless cards. Fashion makes sense.

Kind of makes me nostalgic and want to build a high-end PC with only “retro” green PCB components
From experience I can tell that 5am mails are treated like yesterday’s mails.
A lot of it is contingent on school size. If you're going to a rural high school with a student body of < 300-500 people, you're experiencing middle school again with older teens. Predictably, this has a high probability of sucking if you aren't high up in the social hierarchy. My high school had almost 5,000 students and many middle schools from around the area fed into that high school. This created a college-like environment where freshmen didn't know 80-90% of the other students on day 1. The size and novelty gave people the freedom to be themselves and find friends easily.
This sounds very similar to the toothpaste and dental products with polypeptides that these guys do https://www.credentis.com/en/publications/ (edit: replace link of products with publications)
Yeah it took me decades to learn that the pain of getting a cavity filled isn't normal. I thought the freezing helped and that the ice pick jab causing lightning of pain down my spine was what everyone suffered.

A dentist finally slowed down. Noticed my tears. Asked. Had a conversation. Tried freezing me in other places. Worked perfectly. She guessed that my nerves are anatomically weird.
Maybe someone could help me understand why a simple explanation for dark matter isn't possible.

I get how you can measure the mass of stars, and how you could also maybe measure the mass of interstellar gasses. You add it all up and there is missing mass. But how could you estimate the mass of larger objects? Couldn't the interstellar medium be full of moon sized cold rocks? You'd have no way to observe them on a galactic scale since they're not illuminated, they have effectively no absorption spectrum b/c of their small surface area and yet I'd think they could make up the difference you need for this "dark matter"

The explanation seems too simplistic, so I'm clearly missing something :)

Everyone has a manic/depressive cycle like in bipolar disorder (theirs is just more severe). You can manipulate it by messing with your sleep-- lack of sleep is one of the biggest triggers of a manic episode.

The mania triggered by this story should have been just as concerning as the depression.

I do this too but to scrape the bottom of the barrel on philosophy problems. It's basically like doing drugs.
> It doesn't hurt for you. Some people, including myself, have had root canals that have almost caused worse pain than when I was in the ICU.

I am just going to have the tooth pulled. They argued either try to save it, or just have it taken out.

I dread dentists, and especially endodontists/root canals.

There are enough reports of severe pain and I want no part of it, unless I go the expensive sleep dentistry route.

Learning to handle data is probably solid. Data size and complexity will only grow. The science is by definition at the unexplored boundary. Have a solid understanding of the known and explore the boundary. but you don’t need to stess so much. Maintaining legacy systems is a never ending career.
The trend in the US is against tracking students based on performance, as that is considered racially biased in most scenarios.

Most places in the US have very limited occupational training. Which is nuts.. my employer pays entry programmers and IT people less than a mason.

> "cup" is a terrible terrible unit that needs to die

Yes. Or more to the point, all of them are; not least because of the existence of all the others.

I know it's rarely going to actually matter that much even when I try to follow a recipe (which to the letter and quantity at least, I generally don't) whether '1 cup' is US legal, Imperial (UK but not common), metric, Canadian, US customary, or any of the other country variations, but it's still infuriating!

I resisted owning any at all for a long time, but eventually gave in thinking it would be a handy way of having volumetric 1:1 ratios if nothing else (e.g. as much tomato as onion) and double as 'a cup' for following American recipes. But which 'cup' did I get? (Bought in the UK.) Nuts. I then realised I already had cup marks on a glass measure (that I'd only used ex ante for millilitres, like a sane person) - sure enough, different 'cup'.
Phabricator-the-software is a really good tool for code reviews and lightweight task management.

It's used at my current workplace (self-hosted) for both. We aren't big enough to effectively take over maintenance – but I hope someone does. It would be a shame for it to be replaced by 10 other tools that reimplement the same features poorly.

For software that doesn't require you to click a EULA button or change a value in a EULA file to acknowledge you agree to the EULA, they can just make it part of the Terms Of Service that you inherently agree to by using their software/service.
> Keep private life private.

I kind of agree here but also feel like it could be isolating. Part of forming meaningful relationships that make you more successful is sharing some intimate things. It’s a double-edged sword of course, you can ultimately regret some things you’ve shared or said. That being said, I think it’s ultimately a net positive because good relationships allow you to be more effective in the workplace (eg people may be more willing to listen to the problems you surface of solutions you propose).

Awesome list though.

That really seems to be the first issue in most cases. You need people to be suspicious of emails, check closely, and be willing to just not click that darned juicy link.
There's many reasons I would never allow an Amazon or a Google internet into my home. This is another added to that list.
I once got hired via LinkedIn but have never posted a single thing there. I basically use it as an up to date and more extensive resume, and I assume I get attention from recruiters because of tech keywords in my work history and positively regarded companies and schools.

If you're trying to get hired in marketing or communications, then the performance probably matters, but recruiters will reach out without your having to loudly pat yourself on the back in a thousand strangers' feeds.
In socialism, worker-based ownership leads to better conditions. In this vision of capitalism, workers have no control over their conditions.
I wish you luck in your business, and certainly opinions will vary.

My teams are more skeptical of corporate gestures. As the culmination of a week-long offsite in an exotic locale, a candid team photo might be a welcome commemoration. Anything more artificial would be artificial.

So reading the actual paper suggests that the article's summary and title is poor / clickbait. This paper does not go into much testing of changing the wake time. Instead it looks at correlations of life-long earlier wake times and suggests that studying the article's claimed effect (earlier sleep times) could be worthwhile.

Several TL;DR quotes:

>Our data are consistent with results from a recent randomized clinical trial7that shifted the sleep timing of individuals withan evening diurnal preference. The multifaceted intervention targeted sleep timing, meal timing, light exposure, caffeine in-take, napping behavior, and exercise behavior. This intervention resulted in a mean 2-hour advance in sleep-wake timing and advanced the dim light melatonin onset, a circadian rhythm timing marker. There was no effect on sleep duration or the time between sleep onset and dim light melatonin onset timing,which suggests the absence of sleep deprivation or worsening of circadian misalignment as a consequence of this intervention.7Participants allocated to the intervention arm had improvements in the overall Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale score, as well as the depression and stress subscale scores.

>While this trial also lends support to a causal protective effect of morningness on mood,the study was small (n = 22) and did not assess hard clinical endpoints. In contrast, our analysis tested the association with life-long modification of diurnal preference and assessed the clini-cal end point of MDD diagnosis. Taken together, our results suggest that interventions such as those implemented in this trial7may be worth scaling to larger clinical trials

>This 2-sample MR analysis found robust genetic evidence for a protective association between earlier diurnal preference with lower MDD risk, and contextualized this association using an objective sleep timing measure. The findings support further investigation in the form of randomized clinical trials of sleep timing interventions for the prevention of MDD.
I think most agnostics and atheists don't believe in a higher power just in general. And if you stretch it to, "the nothingness you believe in is your supreme being!" the definition is so loose as to be meaningless.

A word with no end is a deed with no boundaries. What a thing isn't means as much it its identity as the things is definitely is.
well, these weird republican corporatism seems intent on trying to blame their future actions and false dichotomies.
No, because capitalism creates artificial scarcity.

Under socialism, a battery factory that invents a more efficient process for creating batteries can pass that saving directly to the workers - rather than working 40 hours a week they can work 20. Their leisure time is increased. This is the future Asimov and Roddenberry envisioned.

Under capitalism, the benefits of such technological advancements gets pissed away into market forces and accumulate with the people who need them least. For some reason we still expect everyone to either inherit money or work a job - even a pointless job - just to survive. Why? We easily have the capacity to feed, clothe and house the world's population. Let people follow their passions! Imagine how many Eisteins, Picassos and Mozarts that are being born into the world right now who will never reach their potential. What an enormously inefficient and unjust system.
And why haven't we evolved to have that yet anyway? It's surely better, nowhere for food to get stuck? (Assuming it can still be molar/canine/incisor like in different places on that plane.)
You own the physical device yet you don't get to choose what happens to it. That's only because, when you buy it, you implicitly accept that A) it can be remotely updated to do anything (or stop doing something) and B) you have to use it in the way it's intended. Past that, you can't choose how it works - you have to not buy it if you aren't happy with those terms.
During Desert Shield/Desert Storm in the 1990s, when I was working for the Defense Information Systems Agency in the basement of the Pentagon, there were occasionally papers that were banned from the building. Usually just one particular day, but sometimes on multiple occasions.

Just because something is printed in a newspaper doesn’t mean that the thing in question is unclassified. And if you have classified material in your possession and you don’t treat it properly (like locking it up in an appropriate safe when it’s going to be out of your hands, even for just a few minutes), then that can get you into some really serious trouble.

If the publication in question contains a classified code word used in code word context and you don’t treat it appropriately, well then you’re probably done for.

Feel free to try to guess which GURPS book from Steve Jackson Games that would be, but you would almost certainly be wrong.
I recently discovered this top on my own while starting a new podcast that’s based on a written newsletter.

It’s not (always) a word for word read, but after a few sessions of reading the newsletter out loud as I was recording, I noticed my writing has become more fluid and the content easier to digest (in my opinion, at least).

It was kind of hard (really, awkward) to read my own writing at first, but it got easier.

A really great tip!
> The trend of reducing AP classes in the name of 'equity' is very troubling, as it remove the chances of smart students to have a stimulating environment, and let them learn at their faster pace.

The arguments have shifted away from improving outcomes for troubled students to closing gaps. It’s easier to do that by fucking over AP kids than solving the unsolvable.
