As the author of the recently closed/opened/locked question about brackets [0] on Programmers.SE thanks so much for creating something like this. I'm really enjoying all the additional detail on why something is/isn't the best. Keep it up!

Except the article states that those aren't useful. (Maybe you are trying to tell me the article is wrong?)

> One problem with wheat allergy is that there is no good test for it. In fact, the blood tests for IgE (called RAST tests) are notoriously unreliable; for example, only one in eight children with a positive IgE test for peanuts is truly allergic.

> There’s not even a mediocre blood test for gluten intolerance. The diagnosis simply relies on someone’s subjective feelings of bloating, bowel changes, or mental fogginess after eating gluten
The key to this test, is not just that you drop the gluten. The key is that you then try it again (3 weeks should be enough time for anyone who is not elderly). Have a nice whole wheat sandwich with nothing but healthy ingredients if you like; if you feel like crap afterwards, stop eating wheat. Do you have Celiac? Do you have gluten sensitivity? Do you have a wheat allergy? Do you really care? If you truly have any of those three things, you will know, because the resulting symptoms are well beyond what you would reasonably want to imagine/reverse placebo up.

If you suspect you may have any of these problems, this really is the best test to do. All of the formal, medical tests are varying degrees of unpleasant and distressingly inconclusive. This one is conclusive, and easy, excepting the giving up of the yummies for three weeks.
I do eat some wheat though I may try to see if there's a correlation between nausea and wheat after reading the informative comments here. But I hardly eat any pizza or all that industrial processed crap and I'm very light on ice cream. I'm not a food-fetichist at all: but I simply pay attention not to eat junk-food (ready-to-eat pizzas in the microwave oven [or even the regular oven] is junk-food).

Honestly I do "feel better" when I'm fit, which I always am... And so is my girlfriend. And we do sports : tennis and censored.

I know some people think that "fat is beautiful" (probably after-the-fact rationalization but whatever) but IMHO Maria Sharapova is way sexier than either Oprah Winfrey.

Interestingly there seems to be some automated selection process going around: slim and fit women tend to prefer slim and fit men (not always true of course) while junk-food-eater-no-sport-whatsoever women/men tend to find partners attracted by the same lifestyle.

YMMV.
I do the same on my Linux desktops. Not just chrome, but work and non-work data in general. I kind of assume Mac and Windows users have some reasonably easy way of doing the same thing. As a Linux user, it's trivial, but it's easy to lose sight of what's "trivial" for people who don't program or work in IT for a living.

Can you expand on the "jaw-dropping nastiness you have to go through to make it work"? Seems pretty straightforward, though I have not tried to actually use it yet.

It appears the database migration is the biggest hurdle, but I don't think there's a way around that. User profiles require a join and that can be suboptimal, which is why this is a useful addition. If you weren't running into problems before it's probably better to not change (though that's usually the case for working code).
Show HN: Introducing Metrica - Ad-hoc Analytics for MongoDB
Agreed, this is incredibly annoying, achieves little or nothing in the way of improved security, and makes GMail a lot less useful than it could be. They've done it for years.
I also got a 17" MacBook Pro around the time you did. I really wish I hadn't though, it's way too heavy to really be useful for anything but using around my apartment. I've tried to travel with it a few times and really regretted it.

While I don't relish the idea of a non-upgradable system, I do appreciate Apple trying to shave off every last possible gram from their laptops. My next laptop will probably be a 13" Air for that reason.
How about before talking about the size of the government, proving when and how using threat of murder is moral? Because government has "legal" and real power to kill you if you don't do what you are told. If you cannot prove it as good as some math theorem, then why don't you find some other ways to solve problems before killing people? Why not being able to find a peaceful solution justifies murderous solutions? Do you threaten others with death to believe you when you cannot prove your point peacefully and reasonably?
Guys, I really like what you are doing, I think there is a market opening for this type of site. Couple comments: (1) You probably ought to get tags implemented ASAP so it's easier to find stuff in broad categories (2) Some ppl might not be too thrilled with your lifting so much content from SO. I realize you're probably just trying to seed some content, but still. Might leave a bad taste for some ppl.
The type of wheat we eat has changed dramatically over the last two generations though. See https://www.marksdailyapple.com/the-problems-with-modern-whe... for a comparison of the current form of wheat we eat to older forms of wheat which people may be less sensitive to.
Yes, but the default tables in the standard do mimic the human eye's limitations. That's what increasing the quant factor on higher frequencies is.

Americans don't ferment or even soak their grains, which the Weston A Price foundation (and many others) believe is one of the reasons Americans have so much discomfort/illness to do with grains:

http://www.westonaprice.org/food-features/living-with-phytic...

Soaking and fermentation change the digestibility by altering the structure of the grain, and eliminating enzymes that have potentially painful side effects.
It is, but was an easy addition before. If you needed a configurable user module before you were up the creek.

Erlang with OTP also does pretty well on that test; I've deployed non-trivial programs that weighed in at a couple hundred lines of code.

I agree though — Go looks awesome.

Why does it kill the emotion? With yepnope (and other libs) you can do conditional loading and only use the JS shims on IE8 while the other always-green browsers use the awesome stuff.

>While we're keeping history in context, let's also not forget this is also the company that was borderline irrelevant prior to their current direction.

You're retconning. Apple hasn't been 'borderline irrelevant' since before they launched the iPod in 2001. There's a six year gap there in between the iPod and the iPhone, and imho they didn't really change their direction until 2010 or 2011, with the release of OSX Lion, neglect of the Mac Pro, and the killing off of the 17" MBP.
I've already taken the time to implement a server-side login using OAuth2, as documented by Google here:

https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2WebServer

According to these new docs, I need to use the Google+ JS to do client-side authentication, then pass the token to my server:

https://developers.google.com/+/web/signin/server-side-flow

I have no interest in building a new code path to support Google login, when I can use the OAuth setup I'm already using for 3 providers (inc. Google). It would be nice if you'd just post the CSS or PNGs you're branding as Google Login and let me use the backend I've already plumbed.
For money: a system that manages data for preparing 510(k) submissions to the FDA for new medical devices and automates the process as much as possible. From watching how much effort my multi $Bn employer goes through to do this, there must be many, many smaller companies that suffer orders of magnitude more than we do. And they'd pay a handsome amount for a tool.

I would rewrite mediawiki from scratch... It's an important piece of software and it should be easier to use, manage, hack on and extend. I'm sort of working on that now, but slowly from the inside out with a bunch of other responsibilities. It would be fun to focus on just that part.
The problem is not in surveillance. The problem is: "we will kill you if you decline to go to jail for doing aerial photography". That's what the law says. The surveillance is secondary.

HTC One wins best in show at MWC: "combining innovation with consumer needs"
Precious metals versus fiat currencies? Given the choice between coins made of gold and coins not made of gold, people traded coins not made of gold. Gold is not a currency for the majority of day to day transactions anywhere on Earth, despite having once seen widespread use. Even when currency was backed by gold, people did not actually trade gold; gold was (and remains) stored in vaults. Governments realized that they could issue money that contained less and less precious metals, even no precious metals at all, and there was no revolt at all, just widespread acceptance and use of the new currency.
I should add, that we did do some blind tests. I would not claim anything close to a formal study, but enough for a science minded couple to feel it was good for our needs.
Thanks! Agreed on the SO point, I actually just tried it out on the "Haskel" topic and maybe a couple others with it all fully cited but stopped as it didn't feel right...We have over 300 topics right now with only those few from SO.

Never eating wheat means I can't easily go out with others to eat (many restaurants in a Southern college town _only_ have things with wheat), can't eat most desserts, and basically can't do fast food (almost everything is breaded). So it's a huge social handicap.

So the idea that "just not eating wheat is not a big deal" is just not true.

I really appreciate your post, thanks.

Really sorry about that :( it's very much in an Alpha state. Will get this fixed ASAP.
That is related to one of mine: an email/messaging client that doesn't suck. Or rather, multiple clients based on libraries for ‘mailboxes’ of various kinds (including those in which messages appear asynchronously, like mail and messaging servers, RSS, usenet, scrapable web forums, and so on). I don't know how continuous AV links would fit in this framework, though.

Another five-year software project I'd have fun with would be LLVM front ends for various historically interesting programming languages, and likewise code generators for dead or niche processors.

If I also had money for expertise and prototyping, I'd like to make a keyswitch that feels like an IBM Selectric (or at very least an IBM beam spring switch) but fits ISO's thickness requirement so that it's salable.
I think you have the wrong definition of genetic memory: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_memory_(psychology).
iCloud's free* now, actually. It became a free service when they transitioned away from the MobileMe branding.

* You need a Mac or iOS device to join, though. And you can pay for additional storage if you want ($20, $40, or $100 per year), but that's not necessary.
It works fine on non-executables too. Executables are the hard case, that's all.

Yeah.

And thankfully there's lots of hope in that (semi-old) David Brin essay. Technology is a multi-faceted dice and although the government is very powerful and lobbyist manage to get ever more restrictive laws passed each day, they simply cannot stop technological progress.

"Police and thieves in the streets, scaring the nation with their guns and ammunitions" are getting filmed, photographed and arrested thanks to technology (even if the government desperately tries to ban that).

There's hope and David Brin saw it a long time ago.
Oh, but you can purchase an expensive license... from the government

In order to use just JavaScript... you just write JavaScript. Nothing special. If you don't want to use it at all, you can also remove the gem from your Gemfile.

> Does all RoRists use CS instead of JS, or is it considered best practice?

It is currently considered best practice to use CS instead of JS, which is why the gem is included in your Gemfile by default. Not every Rails project uses it; Discourse just ported all their stuff to JS, even though they started with CS.
Of course, you've supplied the answer yourself, by pointing out that higher standards are expected at trials. But trials aren't the only way people end up in prison anymore.

I'm not sure if I understand what you're getting at. Aaron didn't accept a plea deal, and he didn't have to if he didn't want to.

He was legally entitled to make the copies that he made; the alleged intent is the sole basis for even supposing any crime existed.

This is false. Look at the charge sheet and look at the law cited. Many people seem to have this misconception, but the law doesn't say "it's a crime to intend to do this", it says "it is a crime to do this thing with the intent to do this other thing". Both the things he did and the intent that was alleged are part of the accusation, and both would have have to been proven to the standards of "beyond a reasonable doubt" if it had gone to trial. If the prosecution could not meet that standard for his actions (i.e. if they could not show that he was not legally entitled to do the downloading the way he did), he would have been found not guilty as well.

The point being: the alleged intent is not the sole basis for the charge.
What is the best programming font?
Personally, I found this a breath of fresh air from the modal-based alert dialogs out there, although I wouldn't call it an alert per se. Alerts (as others have mentioned) block the UI and prevent the user from interacting with it until the message has been dismissed. This is more of a low-key notification element.

First of all, I'm not crazy about the other themes, but Future (the one enabled by default in the demo) is gorgeous. Maybe I'm just a fan of circular progress bars, but check out the demo involving "Error destroying alien planet." This is really pretty!

The stated use case for this is "transactional messages in your app." For that I think it fits pretty well. It might work as a debugging utility, similar to how we used alert() before we had console.log(), but it seems like the intended use case is for an end-user-facing interface.

Two minor gripes:
1) Backbone as a dependency for a UI element is kind of overkill.
2) This is more of a pet peeve, but why is the demo written in Coffeescript? I love Coffeescript and use it all the time, but I think it makes more sense for something like this to be demoed in Javascript. People who know Coffeescript are a subset of people who know Javascript, so you cater to a larger demographic this way.

That out of the way, great job on this. I'll have to find a project to use this in :)
The smallest government in the history of the world, created 300 years ago turned out to be the largest and most destructive one in the history of the world.

Suggestion: try to prove that the people who are identified with "the government" have different moral rights than you. Why they can have nukes and guns, while you cannot. And before you have a perfect conclusive proof, abstain from using any physical violence upon anybody around you. If you find a person, who will be convinced that the policeman can shoot at him when he runs away, while the person cannot shoot back, then you can shoot that person. But do not shoot those who are not so much convinced yet.
Well, as far as a test for allergies with intestinal symptoms, you could get an endoscopy/colonoscopy and possibly a biopsy while they're at it. A gastroenterologist should be able to tell you more.

Large changes in lifestyle, such as a complete relocation, new job, etc, should not be something undertaken lightly - if I interviewed and got offered the job I would be under a lot of pressure, which I can mitigate now by thinking more carefully before undertaking anything, I wouldn't want to waste both my time and the time of the people at Cloudflare by making an important decision without carefully weighing the pros and cons.

No, because I went off caffeine completely from 2005 to 2008, without altering my gluten diet at all.
The academic world could benefit from a place that allows commenting on any paper (you can have too many comments; not sure how moderating such a system would work).

To this end, it would be great if this were written in such a way that it implicitly considers papers from all the "standard" academic sources as part of the system, ideally with duplicate removal.

That is, automatically add articles from arXiv and major currently existing journals and conferences, try to automatically detect duplicate papers (perhaps add a concept of versions of papers).

In addition, such a site could really benefit by having "virtual journals", where users collect topical collections of must-read papers.
For what it's worth, I do the same thing and have never run into trouble in years...

Performance, I also feel more in control, it's hard to describe the feeling, it's just as though Go is providing an abstracted interface to the hardware, where as C++ provides raw, unfiltered but potentially dangerous access.

Perhaps it's just my personal experience though.
Web.go got the most stars because its the first one, and is available before Go 1.0. Revel is modelled after Play and Beego is modelled after Tornido. I feel Revel could be more Go idiomatic. Beego is a light layer on top of the standard Go HTTP library and I like its abstraction better. Falcore is not the usual web framework, take a look and you will know why. Have not read much into Mango & Golanger. There is no Rails or Django in Go world yet. Some people just use web libraries such as https://github.com/gorilla to assemble a web app.
I was diagnosed with OSA, and chose to use a newish alternative to surgery or CPAP, the provent strip http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/07/14/sleep-apnea-fix/ I keep ripping it off in my sleep and can't tell if it's working. Ultimately, they said I would get used to it. You need a prescription and after getting used to it, you have to go in for a follow up sleep study so they can see if it actually works for you.
Quite astonishing that in your search for the history of insurance, you managed to look up "Contractum_trinius" and "Vix_Pervenit" on Wikipedia, and yet failed to look up "Insurance" and look in the History section.

"And gluten-free products are a) expensive, b) still pretty rare, and c) unlikely to be found outside of specialized sections"

Not true. Our whole family has been on the diet for a decade or so for medical necessity of our son. Yes if you "demand" something like gluten containing junk food its terribly expensive and frankly doesn't taste very good, usually. But a perfectly "normal" GF lifestyle isn't any more difficult or expensive than a G lifestyle.

Grilled chicken caesar salad with homemade tasty dressing... just hold the crutons.

Traditional steak dinner with all the fixings, just don't marinate in soy sauce based marinades and don't serve garlic bread on the side.

Beef pot roast with all the fixings except dinner rolls.

Meatloaf just use rice as a binder instead of wheat flour and thicken the gravy with off the shelf cornstarch instead of wheat flour.

For obvious "bun" reasons we tend to cook a heck of a lot more kebobs than burgers and brats. He have had cornbread burger buns and they're not as bad as they might sound... after all corn torilla and seasoned meat is not unheard of, so cornbread and somewhat less seasoned meat is pretty good too.

Lime garlic marinated chicken stir fried

Snack time tends a lot more toward corn chips and salsa or sliced up fruit than toward cookies and cake slices.

You'd be amazed what can be done with cornbread and cornbread batter, but you have to make your own from cornmeal, the mixes in the store use flour as a binder. No problemo homemade is about 1/2 the cost of boxed mix anyway.

I don't like eggs, but obviously for breakfast we do a lot more bacon -n- eggs than bacon -n- pancakes.

I do agree that for social reasons a GF cake costing $10 and tasting like instant potatoes and crunchy rice is kinda ridiculous. So unless there's intense social pressure we don't buy the "GF-products" and stick to naturally GF food instead. Very little baby spinach contains wheat, for example.
