My depression didn't respond well to five SSRIs, one SNRI, two tricyclics and one tetracyclic. It turns out I didn't have major depressive disorder, but bipolar 2. The only medication that worked to alleviate my depression was Lamictal (lamotrigine). It also caused no side effects at all.

There are a few other medications that can be safely added to SSRIs, if you're not getting enough benefit from them. Lamictal is one of them. Buspar (buspirone) can also be added to help with anxiety. It's neither an SSRI (doesn't seem to work for you) nor a benzodiazepine (addiction potential), so perhaps it's worth a try.

But talk with your doctor, because I don't know your particular disorder or medication history.

Not good. There are very very few junior developer jobs. Everyone wants senior or lead developers in 2014. Possibly the only junior developer jobs these days are in very remote locations where they can't find any senior developers.

In reality, this tutorial is about making the API calls and decoding their JSON responses, and then introducing some concurrency to do multiple calls in parallel. The HTTP portion of this tutorial functions as some familiar ground for newbies, a nice way to get a grasp of the Go style in a context that many people understand.
The way it compiles to Bash is far from efficient. However, seeing how Batch "supports" functions I can see there a good case use.

this is indeed the biggest reason. They have a "hipster"-branch [1] that is getting some updates but I don't follow that closely. Another reason is that they try to target the "developer desktop" which is not that interesting to me personally and also probably a lot more work (driver wise) than they might have the manpower for...

OmniOS on the other hand is pretty solid and with pkgsrc (default package system on SmartOS and NetBSD) you get nearly 13k packages of open-source software.

My List is also missing a few other commercial players that use and contribute to Illumos:

- Delphix, uses ZFS snapshots to do fancy things with big databases

- Pluribus has "Netvisor OS" that is some SDN Router/Networking appliance [3]

And then there is the long tail of small hobby distributions:

- Tribblix, "Retro with modern features" [4]

- DilOS, which has a focus on Xen and Sparc [5]

and probably more that I forgot and don't know.

It is a very nice community and lots of interesting technology gets developed.
Our company migrated nearly all servers from Linux to SmartOS in the last 2 years and we could not be happier.

Luck doesn't seem to have a scientific basis. No one chose for the person to have an innate biological inability to produce healthy offspring whilst another person does have that ability [to a greater extent]. How is it not fair?

That she has an inability is not fair nor unfair; it simply is. That you chose to criminalize her decision to have children via this procedure is a choice, and in my opinion, it's unfair since it discriminates people and for no good reason.

I'm a fat, lazy slob, and I'm allowed to have children, and she isn't? That's simply wrong.

Clearly being unfair is allowed as you said "assuming she can afford it", why should financial ability trump biological suitability? That doesn't seem fair nor sensible.

Who says it should trump? As far as I'm concerned neither should be restricted from having children. You're the only one arguing for restrictions.

The idea of financial ability was merely to say that my position doesn't require others to pay for it.

Use your shower water to water your lawn, make sure you're washing without chemicals that are going to cause a detrimental impact on flora, waterlife, groundwater and such.

What "chemicals"? It's just a child like any other. We have no reason to believe it's more harmful than mine or yours. If she should prevented from having them, on what grounds shouldn't we prevented everyone else?

To use your analogy I'd say choosing to enable

Ah, but that's the thing. You view this as "choosing to enable". But nobody is asking you to enable anything; just to not throw people who decide to have the procedure done in prison (or fining them or whatever).
The End of Big Twitter
I was recently in your shoes and took the CTO position, leaving behind a very cushy, well-paying job at an established software company. It's more work than I was doing at my previous company, and I'm working a lot more hours than before (much to my wife's chagrin). I spend most of my time writing code (75%), but I do participate a lot in product discussions, strategy, and general managing (1-1s, code reviews, architecture discussions, etc). It's more of a VP Eng position than a CTO since I'm so hands-on, but, for me, the title itself is not relevant.

The startup raised a big seed round, and will go through a Series A fund-raising round within the next 6-12 months. My reasons for leaving the established company were to challenge myself and learn. I'm hoping to start my own company one day, so for me I'm trading financial well-being and stability at the established company for a crash-course start-up MBA experience. And in the event that we take have a favorable exit, than that's all the better (as much as I believe in the company, I do realize that statistics say otherwise).
French law mandates eye-level transparent windows to outdoors in workplaces, except for those where it is incompatible with the activities. It also mandates sufficient natural light, and for rooms with no windows intended for long work, at least 200 lux of light on the desk (but the lighting also has to be "adapted" to the activities).

Rooms with no doors in large buildings are sometimes used as meeting rooms (since they aren't intended for permanent work). I have seen once a large room with just a few windows that were far away from most desks, I guess it was technically legal but would probably not pass should one of the employees sue (comfort is an important part of the law).

Or how about remote Aboriginal communities in Australia?

If you want to see what giving people just enough money to live on looks like, check out our remote Aboriginal communities where the government hands out enough money to live (mediocrely) on to everybody, so what's their incentive to get a job? What's their incentive to do anything?

The results? Well the worst one is massive substance abuse problems. If they can't get booze, they sniff petrol. Actually for the most part they sniff petrol and drink booze.

Highly educated creative-class people are the minority who can deal with free money without getting sapped of initiative, because (a) we tend to get satisfaction from work and (b) we can earn substantially more by working than by not working.

But for someone at the bottom end of society who couldn't earn more than minimum wage anyway, granting them minimum wage for doing nothing is probably the worst possible thing you can do to them. Even if some choose a life of honest toil for slightly more money, vast numbers will choose a life of idleness and substance abuse.

For what it's worth, while Intel did win the architecture wars here, the "deep and narrow" pipeline being described here died out with Netburst. The Core microarchitecture that replaced it (which is the predecessor of today's Intel CPUs) used a much more "wide and shallow" pipeline, and benefited greatly from it.

Apple Publishes the Top Reasons They Reject Apps
PowerPC at the high end still exists in the form of POWER8 for servers, but they're very expensive and don't perform all that well both in absolute terms and energy efficiency - it looks like they've gone down the same path as the P4 for the POWER series, with emphasis on high clock frequency and (extreme) hyperthreading - resulting in ~200W TDP and frequencies in the 4-5GHz range.
.
Some examples...

The reverberation algorithms mentioned by TheOtherHobbes often bear no resemblance to the methods used for analog gear. The most commonly understood setup, in the first digital reverbs described by Manfred Schroeder [0], uses banks of all-pass delay lines set up in "aesthetically interesting" sequence and series, employing various levels of feedback.

Digital frequency filters (and I'm pretty unclear on all the details myself, not having enough DSP background) generally apply the Z-transform [1] to turn a filter specification into a fast state-variable algorithm. This technique is crucial to modelling certain aspects of analog audio since it allows the filter to behave in more chaotic, animated ways: for example, resonance in analog domain is achieved through filter feedback, which causes the filter to self-oscillate at high gain levels.

Resampling algorithms contain some of the most straightforward applications of Fourier transforms. The theory tells us to treat each sample of the original signal as a point convolved by the sinc function; the resulting output signal is resampled from this convolution, and is thus dependent on the _bandwidth_ of the convolution - as bandwidth goes up, our convolution grows wider, as it goes down, shorter. The bandwidth modulation guarantees that the output signal contains frequencies underneath the Nyquist limit.

However, in practical use, we immediately have to compromise by at least windowing the sinc; thus we get into various approximations to minimize artifacts. Resampling can become a distinctive effect when done with lower fidelity or unusual filter kernels(example: The SPU of the Super Nintendo employs a Gaussian kernel).

I'm interested in how this would work. Where would the VAT go in the case of a German person who primarily lives and works in the UK? Is it based on their IP address at the time of signing up? Or where their banking address is registered?

> almost by definition, most employees are average.

This is not clear to me at all. it may be that we have two equally numerous groups of employees, and the first class is three times as effective as the first class. In this example, no single employee is average, everyone is either 50% or 150% average workers.

You can make the numbers as extreme as you want and you can think of various explanations that would explain this skills gap's existence and persistence. (Maybe we are comparing different departments, the company has normal sales reps and stellar engineers.)

Basil is really easy to grow, and grows pretty aggressively. We have a handful of new plants (~3 months old, planted from seedlings) in the back yard, and I use a couple dozen leaves every couple of days. They continue to get bigger and definitely aren't stripped bare. My roommate just chopped the top third off of all of the plants in order to make starters for more plants. A week later, I can't tell they've been chopped off...they regrew a bunch of new leaves. Theoretically, they can be trained to be bushy and short (which produces "sweeter" leaves), but so far ours are re-growing tall. Nonetheless, I have a lot of fresh basil and it's all delicious (big leaves are chewier and have a more licorice flavor, little leaves are milder and sweeter, etc.).

I don't know what we'll do with the starters for more plants, as I think we probably have enough basil. But, "too much basil" might be a nice problem to have.
I have one of the large (6.5") EcoSpheres on my counter right now. "Average life span of 2-3 years." Heh.

My first EcoSphere was the little one, and the shrimp lasted a year or two.

My large sphere has been going for at least 4 years. From what I remember reading the algae will go on basically indefinitely once the shrimp died, but my little shrimp are still kicking. I've got two little shrimp in there right now, and I've seen so much.

When the shrimp die, they go away (eaten by bacteria) quite quickly. You can see the other shrimp poke at the corpses, I assume eating some of the bacteria or algae.

The shrimp also change colors. Depending on how stressed they are and a few other things they can be quite light pink (fading into white) or bright red.

My shrimp have bread at least one. I saw the little bits in the water and thought it was some sort of debris but I noticed that it was moving. They looked like little fry. I don't think any survived (I assume died or eaten), but maybe the shrimp I have are second generation or more. No real way to know.

I haven't touched it in years. It gets a dusting every few months, but there isn't much dust so it doesn't matter. I haven't done a 'cleaning' (uses a magnet sealed inside to scrap algae off the glass) in years. It sits in my apartment that I try to keep about 70 but has been as low as 60 and over 80. They seem quite resilient.

It's a very neat desk accessory. At this point there is quite a bit of algae built up in mine so it looks dirty, and a few people have asked me why I don't clean it (doesn't help since the algae is still trapped in there) or just throw it away because it looks disgusting.

But with the two shrimp living in there, I can't throw it out. They're still happy.

I admit that I didn't understand this explanation right away, so .. for people that have the same issue, this is a different version:

It would be great it someone officially associated with HN could contact the Freenode stuff (mail or maybe ask in #help first to understand what is required) to claim that channel.

In an ideal world operator permissions wouldn't be required on IRC, but ... I'm sure it won't be long before the channel will be flooded/attacked. Calling for help in #help works in some cases, but having local users that are able to intervene would be better.

Can I invoke kogir/dang to have a look at this maybe?
I'm a skeptical panda. A hundred different celebrities pictures are leaked, and all the article can do is keep reiterating, with no evidence at all, that it's "unlikely" to be a security problem in iCloud or some similar service. If it were just one or two accounts I'd find the alternate explanations (social engineering, etc) more plausible.

Even if the leaks result from one at a time social engineering, it still really calls into question the practical security of the cloud. I doubt it's much harder to steal, e.g. confidential business documents from executives' cloud accounts than it is to steal pictures from celebrities' cloud accounts.

If I were a big organization with confidential information, I'd really be thinking hard about my cloud policies and my BYOD policies right now. The policy at my previous employer (we handled a lot of extremely sensitive information), was pretty draconian: data never leaves a company desktop, laptop, or blackberry.
