My Thai business banking system is paranoid and disables autocomplete, paste, etc, even with the security of a physical token), but the one that really annoys me is things like Basecamp - I had to futz around and disable JavaScript for a login to be recognised and prompt to save a password - by default it does an XHR which doesn't trigger the "save password" prompt.

Why are you going for lean meats? Most low carbers encourage consumption of fattier meats, to encourage production of ketones. Unless you're trying to limit your omega 6 intake, I don't see how it would be beneficial to eat lean meats on a low carb diet as a lower fat diet would limit your body fat mobilization and encourage muscle wasting through gluconeogenesis. But if it's going well for you, power on. I however, have lost body fat and maintained lean body mass by eating lots of fatty meats, pork rinds, cheeses, butter and avocado. I was never obese however, maybe a bit skinny fat with a bit of a beer belly. People need to change their thinking about saturated fats and fats in general (except trans-fats from seed oils, those are always bad).

It's not just random people with egg icons though. I'm getting the sense too that people, even smart people doing interesting things, are taking the medium so seriously now that there's a lot of bickering.

It may be bigger then Twitter though as reaction time becomes smaller, so does the backlash.
We hope to do a big reveal early next year, but we'll probably be talking more about the technology between now and then. :)
This is very interesting to me! I had quite an argument / discussion about this only 2 days ago with my father. He calls it the "Slow Carb" diet and tried to get me to go on it. I had a look around and found that this is the invention of just 1 man with seemingly not much backing evidence out there. My argument was how can I follow the diet of 1 man, even if it is effective (anecdotally)? I think I used an argument that if I came out with a "water and beans diet" it would probably be effective but without supporting evidence how safe would it be long term?

I still stand by this, in the sense that I would love to see if there is more "proof" out there, even anecdotal is good if in sufficient quantity.
Mostly it says poor people are bored stiff and will do stuff for fun just like anybody else.
Short answer: No, except some granted patents.

Long answer: We have delved into so many areas, worked so hard in seclusion for the past several years, almost existing in a parallel universe to Silicon Valley. Our own private Idaho, if you will. New database structures, encryption, automatic parallel programming, low power servers, basically whatever suits our fancy. Now it is decentralized genomics. Who knows what tomorrow may bring?

I figured out early on that we were so weird that PhD land, corporate research, VC-istan, and federal contracting would think we were too "out of the box". So we decided to go it alone. We are motivated by pushing science forward purely, and the other groups have competing objectives that did not suit us.

The tragedy is that many of our inventions and code may never be used by the masses. We are so private the thought of sharing our work is excruciating. We have amassed a large amount of work. I guess we will start sharing it soon, but that would pull us away from the development, which would be terrible. :-)
I only use twitter for its nlp signal, I have zero interest in actually posting or worst still, actually reading any of it. twitter is like youtube comments, without the video. But it's great for what the aggregate signal it contains.
I've started Tim Ferriss diet on May/2013 and went strictly on it (no supplements, aka, PAGG) up to September/13 when I reached my goal (97->82kg). I did a body check-up (mostly on blood and urine tests) on November/13 and everything was fine. I never came back on milk+bread on breakfast and I got used to go low-fat 6 days a week. I'm not so strict on Tim's diet anymore but I'm still low-fat-oriented. I'm turning 40 this month. So far, this diet worked greatly for me. BTW: I got to know about Tim's book here in HN.

I must recall that the low-carb diet from Tim is focused on food with low glycemic index. The idea is to avoid the conversion of the carbs you eat into fat stored in your body.
In the ideal world of relational databases, storage would be defined separately from logical structure.

In other words, DDL and DML operate on logical things (relations, domains, etc.), and we'd have some other language/tools to tell the DBMS how to lay things out on disk. Of course, in the really ideal world the DBMS just comes up with the best storage solution without manual intervention ;)
Oh, I don't think Tim Ferris' diet is anything special, it's just one of many ketogenic/paleo diets that probably all work about the same. I just liked his version because his grocery list & preparation steps are practical for my own routine. Additionally, I have a hunch the focus on eating similar meals over and over again is a valuable psychological trick to help you keep your portions modest (because it forces your brain to focus more on the sustenance aspect of food, not the enjoyment element)
I guess this is the case, as they like to wow suppliers/customers or use it as a way to keep a trucker/customer to wait X minutes until the order is actually done without complaining too much.

The "tour for a friend" is probably seen as an opportunity to practice the tour when it doesn't really matter, test new things, etc.

I got to tour a sulphuric acid plant. It was fun. The friend worked in the closest equivalent to hell that I've ever seen (well, the cauldron part anyway). I love walking by a X000 fahrenheit tank with the guide saying as you have to crouch around to get around it "Don't go near, hot!".

Regarding maps: is there an app that lets you save out Google Map info offline? I'd like to be able to type in a city and have it save all the data.

I was thinking of having my setup just be a dumbphone plus a wifi-only tablet. The tablet would have utility apps, including this offline-map app. I'd just need it when I'm lost or need to find something nice to eat. It should also have Yelp data on it, and have the ability to update the map and Yelp data when I'm wifi connected.

If I'm travelling to somewhere, I can preload the tablet with the new city info at home.
I recommend reading the book Wild Ones if this question actually fascinates you.
>any diet will make people pay attention to what they're eating, and that's the real win

Except for a fruitarian diet, which is usually very high in fructose. Look at what that diet did to Steve Jobs. While he was still alive, way before it was revealed he had pancreatic cancer, I heard a story where he turned orange, which can only be jaundice, a sign of a failing pancreas. The pancreas metabolizes fructose and it can't be good to abuse it by overloading your body with high fructose.
I have never had a Twitter account, nor have I ever posted to Facebook (although I do have a page, so the press have a nice picture of me in case I'm kidnapped or something, as well as 50 or so "friends", although I have no idea who many of them are or where they came from). So I don't quite get what this guy is complaining about. How was posting to a privately owned (by someone else) but publicly broadcasted platform, designed to attract freely contributed content in order to build an advertising channel, ever supposed to be "intimate"?
Ditto on the lean meats. I switched to a low-carb, high protein/non-lean meat diet and lost 13 lbs in the first month, with no additional exercise. My diet was largely carbs - cereal, toast, breads in the a.m., sandwiches, crackers, bread and ice cream, so eliminating all of that was a fundamental change to my diet. I've never looked back.
Do you charge them additional fees? If not you're screwing yourself over.
two factor authentication via SMS is the biggest waste of time. It's not true two factor authentication as you need to depend on the network and protocol between namecheap and my phone. Not to mention the code is probably not originating from a namecheap server but from a third party service.

TOTP is a standard, it's great, there are open source implementations, and it's easy to integrate. Google even has that pam module. Use it.

Worth noting that in iOS 8 you can capture video direct from device, and don't need to resort to something like Reflector (and the lower quality AirPlay stream that that entails).

If you plug an iOS 8 device into a Mac running Yosemite it will show up as an available input in Quicktime, and you can make a screen recording direct from there.
Like all software it will be read far more often than it is written. It is optimised for that common use case.
The one group had to watch their fat intake and the other group had to watch their carb intake. It isn't exact equivalence but you are incorrect to say that only one group was restricted.

And you are also incorrect that both groups had equal results. There was an 8 pound weight loss difference on average. Did you even read the article?

SEEKING WORK: Remote, or SF Bay Area

I'm looking for contract/freelance devops or Linux sys admin work. I have 14 years of professional experience working with large companies and startups. I'm a local of the Bay Area but will also do remote work. I've done it all from building out datacenters to setting up puppet/salt setups from scratch.

I'm also pretty versed in setting up fault tolerant systems that are designed to fail quickly and recover just as quickly.

How are these jobs perceived in America?

I've found that if people even have any idea about what e.g. a machinist does, they tend to see it as a dirty low-paying blue collar job for dumb people. Which can be true, but it doesn't have to be this way. The problem in .fi is the divide between smart students (who go to high school and then pursue higher education, which means no skilled trades) and vocational education which is for the rest of the students, who don't get good grades or just don't care about studying, etc.

But there's a lot of cool tech involved in machining & fabrication, and if there was a programme that maintained the academic level suitable for the better students and combined the trade with e.g. mechanical engineering or mechatronics, I'd see a lot more people getting into it. I've also heard that in some countries there are high schools during which you also learn a vocation or two.

I think I lived through high school without ever hearing the word "machinist" or even knowing what it really meant. And I suspect this is the case for the other students I knew.

Today, I'm going to spend around seven hours playing with a CNC lathe. In the evening, I'll be attending another school to study machine & fab tech (it's an engineering degree). So far, I'm loving it :-)
Haha, shut up.

Atkins isn't high protein. We already know high protein diets kill people.

Just actually read the snopes article you linked to before repeating the same bullshit that people actually believe. Atkins, the guy who saved thousands of lives of his patients, reversing their diabetes and obesity, died of ________ and was a _______ weight when he was admitted to the hospital.

(2) healthy

hypertension? what do you think 60 pounds of bloating is going to do to your body, dumbass?
Interesting. I barely eat any breads -- eggs for breakfast, meat and greens for lunch, and generally a meat/vegetable combo for dinner -- while working out 2-3 times a week, and I have a tough time not gaining weight.

Anecdotes are basically pointless. What we need is cheap individualized nutrition.
I believe the health benefits of vegetarianism are largely attributable to lifestyle choices that vegetarians are more likely to make than omnivores. They're less likely to drink, smoke, more likely to exercise, the list goes on.

You are conveniently ignoring California law:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_partnership_in_Califor...

See under "Scope". By 2008 as amended, California afforded domestic partnerships the same rights and responsibilities as marriages under state law.

Federal law was of course different due to DOMA, which was overturned in 2013.

Prop 8 did not remove any legal privileges available under CA Domestic Partner law. It did not revoke any marriage licenses, either.

As for denying "common rights", you are begging the question. What common public good (not "right") is secured by marriage, defined based on that public good, that the state should regulate it in the first place?

Traditionally (in the US), legally regulated marriage had to do with family law, children, rearing as well as getting of children, forming legally recognized kinship based on procreation and adoption.

Along the way, baggage including visitation rights at hospitals and jails was thrown on board, but such regulations are not essential.

If people can't agree on the common good of marriage, then marriage should not be legally regulated at all.

It's stupefyingly clear from this case that people do not even use the same definitions for words including "marriage" and "rights". That this is true does not make anyone on any particular side of the multi-sided debate an outlaw for dissenting from whatever might be the dominant position, in 2008 or now.

Anyway, ignore the lack of consensus on a common good. You didn't even bother to be accurate about relevant California law. You just made up stuff about "material grievances" and "common rights" to try to dodge debate and cast others as beyond the pale.
Your definition of environmental sustainability implicitly assumes a fixed, or arbitrarily bounded, population size in steady state. Whatever set of foods we choose to feed the population with, it is always possible (and historically has been inevitable) for the population to outgrow the available supply.

Sustainability only makes sense relative to a particular population size, and so something is only unsustainable in the absolute sense if the population needed to produce it exceeds the population which can survive upon it. This is not the case with the food types you refer to, and the producer/consumer ratio is precisely the thing that we develop new technologies to reduce.

If anything, I see it is better for us to engage in inefficient land use, because it provides spare capacity which can be used to mitigate prolonged disasters; a view strongly influenced by the book "The Collapse of Complex Societies", by Joseph Tainter.
It might be easier to use machine learning for card prediction in Hearthstone than you might think at first glance: the problem space is constrained by class choice, metagame, and limited card pool.

If your opponent is using a Hunter deck at a reasonably high level of play for example, he's using one of two deck types, and due to Hearthstone's 30 card deck limit, there are a finite amount of bombs he can put into the deck.

Contrast this with MtG decks: although you might know the overall archetype of the deck, the problem space is much larger, and much more likely to have tiny variations, especially in the number of card copies in a deck (Hearthstone only allows 1-2 copies of one card a deck; MtG allows up to 4, in addition to any number of basic lands.)
There is some advantage, but

32nm Sandy Bridge vs 22 nm Ivy Bridge they take the same 2700K chip from 95W to 77 W.

Which seems ok progress, but at the high end:

Sandy Bridge: 32 nm
Core i7 3820 (4 cores 10 MB cache) @ 3.6 GHz = 130W

Ivy Bridge: 22 nm
Core i7 4820K (4 cores 10 MB cache) @ 3.7 GHz = 130W

So, you gained .1GHz granted their not identical but they have vary similar transistor counts.

I completely agree that this is one of the major lackings of SQL.

Most databases offer the WITH syntax, but, bizarrely, the SQL standard specifies that the WITH block should materialised separately, which prevents it from being used as a device for abstraction.

Oracle is the only database I'm aware of that allows the WITH block, but doesn't impose the optimiser fence.
The unemployment of the unskilled (&/or semi-skilled) is a clear sign of the oversupply of unskilled (&/or semi-skilled) labour at the going price and this pushes the price down. If you have few skills and are poor how do you "get into the labor force?" Drop your price directly to below the minimum wage as is so very common? (Think of the illegal immigrant stereotypes here.) Gain less by spending more on search, more on travel to more remote work or give part of your wage to an employment gatekeeper or something else that competes your economic gain downward? The person who is in the labor force with similar skills - it sure doesn't boost their bargaining power.

With respect, I'm sure you have that price pressure exactly backwards.

The war on drugs is an absolutely unmitigated disaster on a global scale from start to finish. The sooner it is ended the better. Those with vested interests in the current normal practice of the political system will perceive any change to how things are done in Washington or wherever as a threat. Scare campaigns seem to get you elected, opposing them seems to ensure you won't get elected. Running on a "stop this utter insanity making us weak and vulnerable" campaign of ending the war on drugs will likely get an almighty scare campaign run against them (think of the children!) Many vested interests eg lobbyists will support that campaign to keep the political status quo as stable as possible. (Some individuals will always do what they actually think is right, even when it is against their interests). I hope to see that scare campaign fail one day. Maybe some cracks are showing?

Past a certain level of wealth more money has no meaning at all, Soros, Koch, Gates, Buffet and a large number more people have more money than they can ever spend. More power and influence does have meaning to them, be it altruistic or ego driven or whatever.
If you're taking a generic tech role at a generic hosting company, there really is no reasonable noncompete. Your employer isn't arming you with any secret sauce that will make it easier for you to compete with them, because no such sauce exists.

That said: a "reasonable" noncompete:

(a) Is limited in scope to actual customers of the hosting company

(b) Is limited to the precise role you perform for the company

(c) Includes consideration, such as some form of severance

In many jurisdictions, noncompetes are implicitly and severely limited in duration. In California, of course, they can't be enforced (as part of an employment contract) at all.
You are assuming that the low carb group consumed less calories but I believe that is not something that was tracked, so you shouldn't assume that.
This sort of hyperbole in discussions of science may engage some readers but probably alienates at least as many more.

It's rare to see such a perfectly non-self-conscious self-referential statement. Kudos.
>...we have to build our manufacturing knowledgebase back up and be willing to actually compete.

Some days I think this, other days not. There’s an old expression “box a wrestler, and wrestle a boxer”. Basically don’t compete on their strengths if you can avoid it. Better to fight a shark on land than to start taking swimming lessons:-)

The thing is- as huge as America's manufacturing gap with Mainland China is, the creativity gap is equally large. That’s a result of our much maligned Western educational system.

Art class in Mainland China is the teacher draws a bird on the board, all the students copy that bird. I'm not passing judgement on that- it's just a different system. When I was a kid in New York Public School- the teacher said “draw a bird” and we had birds in the park, Godzilla size birds destroying the city, robot birds- no two were alike. In China it's very much a color-inside-the-lines affair. There is a little movement here, but it’s very slow and only with very well educated Chinese parents who see the advantage: http://www.dddyin.com/portal.php?mod=view&aid=2580

Before a project with the scale and ambition of bringing back American manufacturing was launched, I’d like to see how this existing high value attribute could better be monetize and scaled. It will take a long time before we can ever hope to make things as well as the Chinese now do- but we can design better things now. The problem is profiting from that without stifling domestic innovation.
All the security measures usually presented (including here) are completely unrealistic - no one can use different, complex passwords on every site we log into, and then change them every month!

The only way to do this would be to use a password manager in an Saas mode... and if it gets cracked then you're completely doomed and lose all access to all services.

People probably assume that the time saved by not caring about security is greater than the time they will lose if (when) they're attacked, and they may be right.
