> You're much less likely to stick with an exercise routine if it feels like yet another chore in life's long list of chores

I totally agree with you, it's absolutely a great thing if you can find an exercise method that you enjoy for more than its benefits. [I personally think bicycling is tons of fun, and wish I could bicycle-commute to work, but it depends a lot on the specific context of your job as to whether that's practical...]

However I do find that I've had pretty good success with simply being pig-headed: I just force myself to go to the gym, no matter how tired I am after a day's work, no matter how much I just want to grab a bite and veg out, no matter how nasty the weather.

It really helps that I know from long experience that I'll feel absolutely great after I'm done with a session, no matter how tired I was to begin with. It's like the "chore" aspect, while very palpable at the start, is merely an illusion that I have to will myself past...

[Or maybe I'm just nuts. :]
The damage done by the Drug Wars is arguably worse than that done by bigotry against gays. It costs more. It imprisons vastly more people. It is supported by official government propaganda. Many more people die because of it.

If I had the choice of herding the narcs or the anti-gay bigots onto a leaky barge and towing them out to sea, the narcs would go first. They are materially more dangerous, and the anti-gay bigots are far more likely to see the light.

You could not be more wrong. Providing liquidity at a razor thin spread is one of the toughest trades out there. Think about it: every passive order I place gives someone the option to trade with me until I can update it. If my price is wrong and I don't update, I will trade every time. If my price is right, I'll trade some of the time if I'm lucky. If I can tilt those odds in my favor by pricing more intelligently/quickly, my trades with uninformed traders slightly subsidize my losses to informed traders.

Someone taking out/arbing a market needs a source of alpha. I need to protect myself from every source of alpha, at least on average. If market makers weren't collocated and looking at many exchange/products for data to price their markets, they would be driven out by fast liquidity takers, forced to quote lower size or a wider spread until they simply stopped getting trades (other faster, smarter market makers could still quote tighter spreads and would take all your market share).
Sorry it's been up and down all day. We didn't think we'd see quite this amount of positive response from the community. We really appreciate it and the feedback has been amazing.

I came here to convey this same sentiment, well done. I agree that it's getting tiresome. This is a topic relevant to HN. Why can't it be discussed civilly?

Inclusiveness means not discriminating against people based on who they are. It's the very simple idea that white people, black people, gay people and straight people are all people - they are entitled the same rights and the same protections.

Inclusiveness doesn't mean that you have to tolerate a person's actions. Damn right I'm going to criticise someone whose actions hurt people - they're not entitled to have me agree with their "conscience", nor are they entitled to my support for their actions.

Do you understand how discrimination against a person and condemnation of things that a person does are separate concepts?
From the report:

Potential limitations of our results are due to the fact that the survey was based on cross-sectional data. Therefore, no statements can be made whether the poorer health in vegetarians in our study is caused by their dietary habit or if they consume this form of diet due to their poorer health status. We cannot state whether a causal relationship exists, but describe ascertained associations. Moreover, we cannot give any information regarding the long-term consequences of consuming a special diet nor concerning mortality rates.

I don't actually see any assertions on this thread by natdempk or tptacek claiming that TextSecure is "trustworthy" and/or "solid". Did I miss something?

My own opinion is that both strong cryptographic and security engineering expertise on the part of designers and implementors, and multiple independent published security audits, are necessary to consider an app trustworthy -- but still not sufficient, given the poor state of platform security and the lack of support most current platforms (operating systems, browsers, etc.) give for isolation between apps.

Disclaimer: I worked on the Least Authority audit of Cryptocat, and in general get paid for similar auditing. I'm also designing a programming language (Noether) that is intended to facilitate security reviews.
I share all the same concerns you just voiced. It's unfortunate, but I think one of the unintended consequences of all this is that it will drive people into enclaves—exactly what the people who trolled Eich into resignation claim they want to avoid. But maybe fairness and openness is something they feel only they deserve. Political incorrectness apparently has no rights anymore in the Valley.
One discovery method could be the "free upgrade". You feel good that they upgraded you to "premium" granola and when you run out, it's an easy upsell since you can just scan the box.

They might even be able to get away with just giving you free stuff outright as a discovery method too, given the huge amounts of consumer behaviour data they must have — as long as their algorithms can predict you have a profitable% chance of reordering the item.

Video of a user using my app - Result of Peek User Testing 
So I got CodeBunk (http://codebunk.com) user tested with Peek. Here is the link to the video - http://peek.usertesting.com/result/177561963128?autoplay=true

I really liked what they did their (Though its not really helpful for me since the user was not my target audience). I guess if they add a bit of targeting in their platform, it could be an absolute must have for everyone out there.

Most importantly, its free for now (upto 3 tests per month) so I am gonna try my luck 2 more times.

Anyone else here who has tried Peek? Thoughts?

Your "gay is the new black" argument is invalid.

You have never seen–and won’t see–“heterosexual only” and “gay only” water fountains, diners, buses, schools, in light of 75 years of oppressive Jim Crow laws.

You have not–and won’t–see homosexuals snatched away from their families at birth for the purpose of division and dehumanization.

Homosexual men/women have never endured a slave trade for generations and witnessed their ancestors dying by the numbers during a “Middle Passage” and being sold for raw goods.

Homosexuals have never been–or will be considered–non-citizens by laws of the United States that rob them of inalienable rights.

Homosexuals will never face a societal norm that allows–and even promotes–them to be beaten because they are seen as property and treated like cattle.

All of this is why I've always considered the "gay = racial minority" argument weak sauce.

Quick Left (and, by extension, Sprint.ly) is hiring programmers. We do consulting stuff and also run a product (Sprint.ly). You get to work with some cool folks from either Portland, OR, Boulder, CO, or SFO. If that's of interest, message me at jabrahms@quickleft.com
Virtu basically only does market-making which is a low risk trade. You put on small positions with a tiny statistical edge hundreds of thousands of times a day to make the bid-ask spread. It's like flipping a coin that comes up heads 50.05% of the time and betting $1 on it a million times a day. If something breaks or loses too much you exit your risk and turn off for the day. If a stock doesn't work in the portfolio, you take it out. If strategies or markets stop making money, you turn them off. Even if they buy a company that goes bankrupt, their notional position is less than their daily profit firm-wide.

Firms that make markets basically make money trading every day absent technology issues. That doesn't mean the company itself is profitable every day. It costs a lot of money to build the technology and strategies, and for every Virtu out there, there's a dozen failed HFT startups.

I have a hard time drawing the conclusion that eating a vegetarian diet directly decreases quality of life.

Participants who ate less meat also had poorer health practices, such as avoiding
attending doctors appointments for preventative check-ups and measures such as
vaccines, the authors found.

Perhaps this means that vegetarians, on average, overestimate the benefits of vegetarianism, and thus decrease their health by taking fewer vaccines.
Great idea!

A few suggestions for you:

- For the Rep lookup, you should probably plug the user's address into a geocoder, and figure out who their rep is - I'll be the vast majority (maybe even 90% or more?) of voters aren't sure who their rep is. You should also remind them that they can and should write to both senators.
- Also, you might want to include a mad-lib style fill-in-the-blanks template on some major issues of the day, for those people who are extremely short on time, and even ask submitters if you can share their letters anonymously with others as a template. Even add popularity ratings for later users to easily get to the most popular letters.

Again, great idea. Good luck with it!

Most people think of protein as a good thing, but <that's> what stimulates the hormone IGF-1 to be secreted, which is necessary for growth of all kinds

When you say "that's" are you referring protein and specifically its presence or absence? It would be interesting indeed to see more research on this as well if possible dimensionalize by not only retsricted/normal kCal but at variations in % kCal by proteing etc. It would also perhaps be very interesting to understand if the variations align as mean values above and below "normal" caloric restricion. Ie, imagine a polar explorer who is operating in caloric deficit yet at high exertion thresholds for days on end. And/or contrast this with caloric restriction in the sense of < normal 2200 per day (or whatevs).
Would love to know this as well!
I strongly disagree here. I have a Harmony remote, I know exactly how to use it, and I consider it a usability disaster. It definitely would not be my model for consumer device usability.
"Legalizing drugs isn't about oppressing a minority."

Given the significantly enhanced incarceration rates of african americans for drug use, even though their actual drug use is not significantly greater than white americans, I've often thought that Drug Laws have precisely been about a coded way of continuing to oppress minorities, without having to be obvious about it.

I was impressed when Rand Paul came out and made it known that he believes this to be true: http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2013/06/24/rand-paul-m...
VS has been around a lot longer than C# and although anecdotal I would hazard a guess to say the majority of those sales were at massive discount to schools and universities not to mention there is no way they would get 13k a pop in other countries.

Like I said they dont make money off the language or the framework directly it being open source will certainly not hinder or hurt their vs sales. It will most likely increase them.

The current Apache Wave code base is a vast complex tangle (GWT wasn't the right decision, I doubt web sockets was either), and there's virtually no life on the developer list.

To be in any way seriously useful, this should be reimplemented as from scratch with a strict separation of UI and wave server back end, with a massively simplified deployment process. (Go would be a good choice imho).

The ideas behind wave are interesting, but the technical debt that Google dumped out when they abandoned wave is so massive, I consider the current wave code base a completely lost cause.

Seriously; interested developers drop into the mailing list form time to time; look at the code base, then run screaming. The reports barely even get done.
A modal "do-what-I-want/pester-you-later" dialog is not the right way. The right way for Vegetable Knight or what-not to ask for permissions is to give the option to say "no, and don't ever ask again," and enforce that at the system level.

And there's always SCOTUSBlog if all else fails. It's where I go for reporting and analysis.
I simply used "fired" as shorthand for "pressured to resign." And I think it was because of his inadequate response, not the initial donation. If he had fully repented, apologized, admitted he was wrong, I think he might have been forgiven. But that's not what he did. But my point is simply that however you reckon it, his ouster was justified.

I'm a geek and I don't use apps. I only use safari, flipboard (which is html based), and comiczeal. I'm actively building a streaming web-based replacement for my comic book reader.

I think people who think their phone can replace a dedicated barcode scanner should be forced to stand in a busy super market where all the checkout counters are forced to use an app to scan everything.
Among people I've worked with (at least those wealthy enough that a $200 subsidized price difference once every few years isn't a deciding factor), I've noticed a pretty clear split where Android fans tend to skew Republican and Apple fans skew Democratic.

I'd be curious to see if that's just confirmation bias on my part or a real trend.
It's totally real.
I'd be curious how much volume occurs like this. I'm in the industry and know of these issues but have never heard of a trade specifically designed to exploit it.

Exchanges aren't allowed to accept quotes that would lock/cross each other, so you'd need something to happen like two guys put crossed orders into a wide book like AAPL almost simultaneously on different markets. They'd have to be crossed by more than a cent since the trader taking them out would have to pay remove fees on both (~$0.006) and the person doing it would have the risk of getting legged if he gets the first order but another takes the second one.

They should fix the SIP but this is not a common HFT technique as far as I know.
So, I built an app for exactly this type of scenario[1]. My wife would ask me to buy something, and then forget, so she'd send an updated email. And then an updated updated email.

And then possibly a text message. Of course, it goes from being 2 things to 10 things quickly. And then I'd have to deal with actually keeping the list orderly and constantly checking what I did have in the basket already (more difficult with 20+ items).

So, I wrote an app. It was funny, building a "twodo" app. But honestly, I just needed something that worked.

I mention all of this because it did start with trying to use what we already had.

Lots of systems are built to only allow signed updates, but bugs often allow bypassing that. If you can exploit the existing firmware, you can effectively load new ones. That's how iOS jailbreaks work despite Apple's attempt to only allow booting an Apple signed OS.
Nobody intends jailbreaks to be possible. It's done through exploiting bugs. And saying it'd be highly irresponsible to write a bug is like saying it'd be irresponsible to use the bathroom. It may stink, but everyone does it.
I totally agree, "it depends". Facebook advertising can be much more useful than the OP and many others are suggesting. One tiny little thing that 99% of people are completely overlooking:

-Page owners have the ability to restrict access by country.

This means it's literally just a couple clicks, and you can completely disable the "click-farm" countries from seeing your page (+ advertisements).

> Except that they wouldn't have any incentive to drop poorer countries vs. charging them the same price as everyone else.

It's true, they wouldn't. However, the buyers might not be able to afford it. If the average comes out to about 10-20k, then US/Westerners will be able to afford that, but poorer people will not, so they'll just completely skip the treatment. If you remove poor people from the market, that shifts the average up by a lot, and then the process repeats.
