> Gay folks are significantly more likely to have been abused as children.

Am I going mad? Is the whole tech community homophobic? That is an outright lie.

The National Health and Social Life Survey (NHSLS) 1.51% of the population of the US identify as GLBT, whereas other studies put this figure as high as 8%. However, statistics for people abused in childhood are significantly higher that this, with reliable estimates given for child sexual abuse to be 16% for males and 27% for females in the USA (NRCCSA, 1994).

Therefore, if there is a causal link between childhood sexual abuse and identifying as GLBT later in life, then why aren’t the figures for the number of GLBT people in the population reflected by the abuse statistics? There are significantly more cases of sexual abuse than there are people that identify as GLBT (Macmillan, 1997), and furthermore, the vast majority of persons sexually abused as children are heterosexual (Keith, 1991).

In addition to this, virtually all statistics agree that females are more likely to be sexually abused in childhood than males are - and yet, and yet there are proportionally more men that identify as being gay than there are women who identify as lesbian (Hite, 1991; Janus, 1993, Jefferson, 2001).

"and to not be intimidated intimidated by them"

I'm not going to fault Codhisattva for calling out the mistake in the title, or even the fact that it irritated him. I'd just like to exhort everyone to also offer corrections with comments like these. If I'm attempting to communicate in another language, having people who are comfortable correcting me (assuming they know what I mean at all) is important.

And I'd also like to point out that even people writing in their native language aren't perfect. We type fast, get interrupted a lot and have local dialects, so it's unrealistic to expect perfection.

P.S. I sure hope I don't find mistakes in this post ;)
From the Netherlands where we all (should) cycle; it does take quite of a change to get into it to make it not as dangerous. It's no fun with helmets and when you feel unsafe, so things need to be adjusted to cyclist as 1500-.... kilos of metal are not very forgiving so you cannot assume that will work well. In 40 years the only people I knew who died from cycling were semi-professional cyclists. I have seen horrible accidents ending in mutilation which were all due to the cyclist thinking 'I am right' (in Dutch law, the pedestrian and cyclist are always right) and just crossing without looking. Outside that, nothing happened. But that takes, I believe, a lot of years of motor vehicle drivers to actually really pay attention all the time as a small lap is not a dented bumper but much worse. That is not something most people just pick up although drivers licenses should've taught them that.
If the government must give these people food stamps so they can live, then Walmart is not paying a living wage. The living wage would be "Walmart wages" + food stamps.

Government is subsidizing Walmart by allowing them to pay less than a living wage and complementing the money with US tax payers dollars.
I think Bostonians would take issue with your assumption:

- Boston has one of the best public transportation systems in the country (ranked #4 by Us news) [1]

- Boston and the surrounding area is very densely populated making things generally not far away. In fact, Boston is about 4x as dense as Atlanta and the surrounding cites of Cambridge and Somerville are more dense still. [2,3,4,5]

- Boston is pretty much covered in college campuses. They're in the middle of the city, edges of the city, and outskirts of the city.

So how would you call a wage that's enough to cover living expenses?
Yes actually. Here is an explanation why. http://dgmweb.net/Ancillary/OnE/NumberAncestors.html
That's true, but I was thinking more of back roads with lots of blind corners and speeds high enough to be dangerous.
It would also be interesting to compare day and night, because cycling in the dark is probably much more dangerous even with high visibility clothing.
Yes, but cleaner syntax for it would be nice. Right now it looks quite messy:

private Lazy<string> _someVariable =new Lazy<string>(SomeClass.IOnlyWantToCallYouOnce);
public string SomeVariable {
get { return _someVariable.Value; }
}

Imagine the same things with a long lambda inside.
Did you have a look at Xtend's Active Annotations?
http://www.eclipse.org/community/eclipse_newsletter/2013/mar...
You can define your own annotation processors without having to understand Java Byte Code. With Xtend, an annotation processor is basically a small Java code generator that can add/remove/modify classes/interfaces/fields/methods. It's quite awesome for automating design patterns, e.g. generating getters/setters, observer pattern, property objects, delegators, etc.
There were guys on Shark Tank with this idea for crickets. They had it all figured out. I can't find the exact episode on YouTube now, but here's the story:

http://sharktanksuccess.blogspot.com/2014/03/cricket-energy-...
I get tired of it because it is a fairly dumb concept to apply to every job. We once had jobs teenagers would get part time to get some spending money. The "living wage" proponents are trying to remove this entirely. We need to be talking about the next job, not a Wal-Mart shelf stacker. Our rush to destroy anything that isn't a college driven education is just coming back to bite us hard.
My reply to nmrm might answer your question.

Finding some regular expression that matches all of the positive examples and does not match all of the negative examples is trivial. Finding a good regular expression that does that is not.

State minimization does not mitigate this problem. As an aside, state minimization is a polynomial algorithm.

Given the positive examples:

aba
abaa
aaaaba

and the negative examples:

abba
ba
ab

we could make a regex that does something like ("aba" | "abaa" | "aaaaba") & !("abba" | "ba" | "ab"), but unfortunately, running a state minimization algorithm on this regex does not give you "a+ba+" because the two regex are not equivalent (they do not accept the same language).

So you can find plenty of regex that will match your examples and not match your counterexamples, but you cannot easily minimize them to what you do want.
Partially agreed - the configuration leaves a lot to be desired, but once programmed it’s good. The biggest thing for my girlfriend was the “Help” function (if she hadn’t kept the remote pointed for the entire sequence) - but that’s been largely negated by my latest upgrade, which has an IR blaster in the entertainment center itself.
They said: "when they're culled we lower the temperature so that there's no violent death or change in state (because insects are exothermic their metabolism slows until they go into a coma-like sleep without any pain)."

Not sure how they determine the pain thing, but that's apparently how it works.
I would love to see pattern matching and at least some kind of tuple support. I don't know if it's ever going to happen in C# though...

The `using` static is actually really good news. I have seen people who seem to be really mad about it, but sometimes it would be nice to have, for example:

// Something like Scala's 'Predef'
public static class Id<T>
{
public static Func<T, T> Identity { get { return x => x; } }
}

and then do:

using Id;

var grouped = list.GroupBy(Identity);

Considering you can already open modules in F# (which are compiled down to static classes), it seems that feature found its way to C#. So maybe there is still hope for pattern matching and tuple support :)

Equivalent of F#'s record types would be also awesome, which is what you put as 'readonly class':

type Person = { FirstName : string; LastName : string }
let single = { FirstName = "Jane"; LastName = "Doe" }
let married = { single with LastName = "Smith" }
It's NOT a full time job, that's the whole point of walmart!

Walmart only employs part time employees for most of their positions, so they do not have to pay all the extra costs of a full time employee.

They have a system where every worker only works up to the part-time hour limits.

So the answer to all these people in the videos problems is get a second job, that is what my mother had to do. Instead they are lazy and work part time, then they take handouts because they aren't making enough.
A career job, just like it was in the old days.
You're right, the demo is far from user friendly. Thing is we completed 90+% of the current functionality last year and then kept working on integrating it internally and the rest of our milestone. At this point so much time had passed that the open source prospects almost disappeared, so I decided it was now or never to release it to the public, since we had 4 months to "prepare" it and nothing happened. To see it gather over 1000 stars on Github is mind boggling, I didn't expect 100 honestly. The demo page is what I put together when showing the grid around internally as work in progress.
I think that's underestimating what the 'general population' is capable of.

Here in Holland most normal bike commutes are often quite a bit longer than 5 km, and everyone from businessmen to pregnant women seem to manage fine...
For the general population, cycling is a reasonable option only for trips of 5 km and under.

Perhaps I'm severely overestimating the shape people are in, but I had a job where I commuted 15km by bike. You can ride 15kph without breaking a sweat, so that's an hour at a relaxed pace and probably 30-40 minutes at an athletic pace.

I'd guess that the median American can ride 10km (6.2 miles) with no issues. I could be wrong, though.

here are (my) URL rules which have served me very well over the years.

• URL-Rule 1: unique (1 URL == 1 resource, 1 resource == 1 URL)

• URL-Rule 2: permanent (they do not change, no dependencies

to anything)

• URL-Rule 3: manageable (1 logic per site section, no

complicated exceptions, no exceptions)

• URL-Rule 4: easily scalable logic

• URL-Rule 5: short

• URL-Rule 6: with a targeted keyword phrase

one is more important than two to six combined, two is more important than three to six combined, and so on.

adding a "human readable text thingie" slug is number six. least important. meanwhile it makes 1 to 3 much harder, and runs against nr. 5.

so basically: don't do it, never. it complicates everything. if you can give a fulfil "human readable" and "short" and every other rule, do it. i.e.: www.example.com/a/contact is great. even www.example-shop.com/a/blue-coffee-maschine is great, but www.example.com/b/343435354-you-can-write-here-everything-you-want-and-i-will-trigger-a-redirect-if-its-wrong is a very very bad idea.

Actually, if you are healthy, 10km or under is still very reasonable, as travel time will probably be under 30 minutes.

Your link contains nothing to refute the fact that gays are more likely to have been abused (which is true), just the idea that abuse is the singular, causal factor of homosexuality (which nobody is suggesting).
I'll probably try that, but I'm worried about maintainability of such solutions.

As opposed to your proposed alternative where the average US WalMart employee without health insurance is expected to pay $89K in cash up front? Or perhaps we'll just require them all to buy health insurance and the insurance company can cover the $89K by charging a $12K/year insurance premium to workers making the ~$15K/year federal minimum wage?

The fundamental flaw you're making is US citizen = rich, which is factually incorrect. Especially if you expect them to subsidize medical care world-wide.

> If you remove poor people from the market, that shifts the average up by a lot, and then the process repeats.

Nonsense. The poorest people who would forgo life-saving drugs for financial reasons by definition have no money. Losing the minimal revenue they could have provided would have no effect on the drug company's revenues and require no recalculation.

And once again, if you want to help those people in other countries, by all means propose a bill to explicitly subsidize medicine in those countries. But take the money to fund it from this country's rich rather than its poor.

if you do it right, human readable URLs are good for the user, for links (as URLs are the most used anchor text you get sensemaking anchor text if you have descriptive URLS) and for SEO (i.e.: if they get displayed in the SERPs)- but adding a non content relevant cruft to the URL "just because" is a bad idea. wordpress (together with the yoast SEO plugin) does it right.

I have tried these, and they are surprisingly delicious: http://www.exo.co/

They are labelled as "Made with cricket flour", but other than that you wouldn't know it was any different from the dozens of similar protein/nutritional bars out there.

Technically it's no problem at all. There exists good enough clothing for you and good tires for the bike, making it very feasible. I see people commuting by bike all year around here in my town in Norway.

>Ignorance and ability are not as correlated as people like to think they are.

thank god there are people who understand that. It's amazing to me the number of people who equate the two. Equally ridiculous is the tendency of programmers to spew advice such as "Read the fucking wiki (or documentation)". That really doesnt help newbs who are just barely figuring out the right way to Google things. The thing about being able to find some instructions on how to do X is that it's predicated on actually knowing that instructions are out there somewhere.

Food stamps are a fairly broad program -- one fifth of US households receive them. Certainly not all such households would starve to death without them, it's a politically palatable cash substitute.
I would suggest to the regulatory/FDR/CVR manufacturers a change to the black box spec, which causes the pinger to only begin pinging 7 days (or some threshold) after the crash.

The first few days of pinging are generally useless anyway, because I have not seen any search where a sea vessel was remotely prepared to search in the right area or with the right equipment.

Incorporate this delay period (in the absence of anything else), and at least you get an extra week out of the search potential time window.
