You seem to have a whole lot of replies, which is inspiring because no one in my office cooks, but I'll add in my experience:

1. I enjoy the act of cooking.

2. I go to the grocery store every 3 or 4 days and plan my meals accordingly. I have a general idea of what I would like to eat the next few days but pick up whatever is available and seems good.

3. Every breakfast is oatmeal, banana, almonds and milk. Most lunches are whole grain break, turkey/chicken/etc, vegetables. My dinners are wide ranging but a lot of Mexican food, from the coast and yucatan, chili, steaks, some whole grain pastas.

4. No, though I try to avoid any processed food and really like lean meats, fish, and whole grains.

5. Slow cooker
Well, that's the main feature of a web server, besides the obvious sending of responses? The usual notion is of requests and responses, routing seems to be an avant-garde term, in this domain.

Disclaimer- I work at Backblaze. Here is a chart of the cost of a Petabyte that shows why we cannot use Amazon S3: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/co...

This is a very interesting problem, espeicially since consumer computing devices quickly shunted to small storage space when SSD's arrived. A few years ago, a laptop with 500GB of hard drive space was rather small! Nowadays, a 500GB SSD is top-tier. Granted, SSD capacity is quickly rising, but with the combination of small computing like phones and tablets, space is at a premium.

Funnily enough, this problem has been solved before! If you look at distributed file systems, especially something like Coda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coda_(file_system)), they are designed to make the local computer a "thin client for storage". Basically, local storage is used as a cache for the main copy on the server, and this behavior is transparent to user applications via the FS driver.

Dropbox uses a user-space program to sync the files and cannot intercept system calls. As such, they had no choice but to synchronize all of it rather than bringing things in "on-demand" and releasing local copies that are not used. Nowadays, this can easily be done via FUSE driver in Linux. I do not know if something like FUSE exists on other platforms though.

Overall, I personally love the idea of a local machine being a "cache" for the server copy. However, the technical challenges are greater than a simple mirroring scheme, and there may be UX issues as well.
I've heard the same.

My failure may have been from trying to cut all carbs too quickly. I've since just tried to remain cognizant of the amount of carbs I consume, and try to lower that over time.

Sugar was tough. Like many people, I used to crave sugar. Tapering off of that has helped, but it certainly takes time to get used to consuming very little sugar.
The point of FDIC isn't to defend against robbers. It's to enable you to safely store money. You cannot do this with bitcoin. You can do this with USD.

Most people don't walk around with their life savings on them. That is exactly what you're doing by storing your life savings in your brainwallet. Hence, the need for banks.

Bitcoin mixers also make it an attractive avenue for robbers. No one can demand you wire them money without getting caught. But they can demand you give them your passphrase and then make your money disappear in an untraceable way.
1) Cheaper. Healthier. Tailored to my personal tastes, accounts for my particular allergies/sensitivities. Saves time and aggravation with my autistic four year old. And it's enjoyable.

2) If something is on sale at the grocery store, I'll plan out a specific meal around it (steak and peppers, for example) but otherwise I don't make a detailed plan.

3) I do a lot of one-pot or two-pot meals. One pot is grain (rice, pasta, or potatoes) and the other is a meat-veggie mix. Sometimes it's curry, sometimes it's more beef-and-tomatoes, sometimes lemon chicken with asparagus.

4) I have in the past done weight watchers (the points plan that was popular in ~2008). This is easily adaptable -- the meat-and-veggie dish is usually fairly low calorie and nutritiously filling, and using brown rice or whole wheat pasta with a small portion size keeps the points down.

5) I think of the dishes I make as essentially templates. I know how to make a decent Chicken Vindaloo, but I can turn it into Pork With A Different Blend of Spices And Veggies using the exact same cooking techniques and it's still good.

My favorite tools: a deep frying pan with a lid, a slow cooker, and a pressure cooker (especially for rice -- I live at altitude.)
Personally I think there's a cultural aversion to competing on compensation.
They get paid to sell your orders to Knight Capital, Lava and Credit Suisse..

I actually wrote about the selling of flow this morning here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8355210

They make it hard to find but the trail goes like this:

http://public.s3.com/rule606/apex/APEX_2Q2014_Rule606.pdf

Note this:

> 1 Apex receives payment from Knight Capital Americas LLC. (Knight) for directing order flow. Payment varies based upon
a number of factors including but not limited to: Size of the order, time of order placement, whether an order is
marketable at the time of order entry, the underlying price of the security and any special handling instructions.
Payments received from Knight averaged less than $0.0025 per share for the period 2Q2014.

> 2 Apex receives payment from LavaFlow ECN for orders that add liquidity to LavaFlow and are subsequently executed. The
rate for adding liquidity to LavaFlow was $0.0032 per share. APEX is charged for removing liquidity from LavaFlow The
rate for removing liquidity from LavaFlow was up to $0.0035 per share.

> 3 Apex receives payment from Credit Suisse for directing order flow to Credit Suisse. Payment varies based upon a
number of factors including but not limited to: Size of the order, time of order placement, whether an order is marketable
at the time of order entry, the underlying price of the security and any special handling instructions. Payments received
from Credit Suisse averaged less than $0.0025 per share for the period 2Q2014.

Holy shit, their order flow is 70% market orders? That cant' be right. Funds must be throwing money at these guys to buy their flow.

I don't want to sound like Jim Cramer but people please don't use market orders!!!!

It happens alot, and since these guys came from the industry it wouldn't be a large logical jump to conclude they are taking money from a fund that wants to trade against their uninformed flow they generate.

Its scummy if true, but it happens. If you aren't a hedge fund then your trades are being sold:) Heck half the time if you are a fund your flow is also being sold:)

Alternatively they have some sketchy fees which you can see here:

https://brokerage-static.s3.amazonaws.com/assets/robinhood/l...

No fee to transfer money into them but a fee to get your money out is a big red flag. Hello Hotel California!

EDIT to explain scummy, its because it allows the big funds to "jump the queue" if you will. Scummy may have been a poor choice of words.

Rather than having to be active in the market with a quote on the NBBO, this allows the big funds to look at each order and say, pass, pass , take, pass, take, etc.

If there is money in filling the order they will, if not they will pass it onto the market where it will either sit or get filed by those who actually participate in the market.
Cinnamon seems to handle HiDPI well.
And honestly, even breaking the build, you get a pass on the first one or two times, everyone has to learn somehow, and tests can be heisen-buggy.

Not so much on pushing broken builds to production though.
Sounds like your buddy just inadvertently created the Turducken of data-interchange formats

before you can assert that you have to calculate how much worse your fill rate will be due to the selling of your order flow

smart traders know that fills are what counts. great brokers can get consistently better fill rates while terrible brokers will not only charge you a commission and get you bad fills or in this case, not even try to get that for you because their business model is based on it

Teasing, shaming and other forms of negative humor are very hard to do with a positive result. People are astonishingly different in what they can tolerate and how they respond. I suppose, with the right people, and the right team dynamics it can be OK.

But as a manager, I would strongly advise you to steer clear of that tactic. Even if you've got awesome emotional intelligence (and I don't) it's easy to screw up. It's not worth it.

Really, don't do it. Because when you screw up, it hurts real people.

There are better ways to encourage people - for example, the positve feedback to the tester you described.
+1 Grellas, he represents both of my companies.
Red/blue would be safer colors to differentiate for many colorblind people. Red/green colorblindness is so common it baffles me that comparisons using red/green are still so prevalent. Especially considering how heavily biased the tech population is toward men.

And as Sanddancer points out, any colors that make use of red/green are going to be problems as well. (hence blue/purple being an issue as the difference is the red component).

In a given group of 5 men, you have a 50% chance that 1 is red/green color deficient.
> I don't think society as a whole agrees with you. In real life, people are negatively sanctioned for saying offensive things, and the PC culture has lead to many people hiding their true beliefs.

This has nothing to with PC. It's about respecting other humans.

As I explicitly said, I actually don't care if you (impersonal "you", obviously!) post vile hateful content (and I support your right to do so), but I also think we should encourage everyone to counter those posts, everywhere we see them.

> There isn't one contiguous unit called society that has norms. Groups, cliques, races, ethnicities are all social constructs that have varying mores and values. No one will agree on what is acceptable.

Well, actually we do. It's called "law". We have this continual process of refinement, repeals, further refinements that leads to some approximation of what "society" deems acceptable. Thus we have "hate speech" laws, and such.

> So if you feel you want to enforce your own personal beliefs on others, that is fine

Oh, fuck off.
I'm so shocked.
It's the other way; si hoc legere scis nimium eruditionis habes.
> Telling people my location or if I am driving is not a feature I want just like never used the status feature on any IM/text client ever had...

That makes you the minority view.

Status's in IM apps were hugely popular, that you are unable to see the value to others indicates a lacking of either imagination or empathy on your part.

> People should never expect an instant reply to any IM, text, or phone call. The receiver's status is totally irrelevant.

If my SO is waiting for me to come home to turn on the oven, then being able to see that I am driving, versus calling me and having me not pick up (I typically do not answer the phone when driving), is a huge value add.

If I have one last thing I want my friend to pick up at the store, seeing "walking" versus "driving" lets me know if it is futile to call him.

These features are useful. Are they something that I'd always want to share with everyone? Of course not, but in the right situations they add value to communication.
ClojureScript auto-compiler is really fast (under a second) after the first compile if you don't use advanced optimizations.
Not really. It sort of side-steps the issue by having extremely configurable icon, font, window, etc. sizes, but it has no real, OSX-style high-DPI support like GNOME does.
Reminds me of http://rosalind.info, although that is for bioinformatics (but including a basic python introduction part).
Oracle's Labs division does a mix of fundamental research and very long term product development. One way to tell how much fundamental research a company is doing is to see how much partnering they do with universities and DAPRA, although not all companies may advertise much about these partnerships.
That pamphlet makes for some scary reading, but is this typical of all of Germany? Perhaps some folks who are living in Germany can comment?
Probably, well hopefully, sure. But I want to know whether they did, and whether the technique is fragile.
I have the same problem. My MBP right now only has a 256GB SSD in it and so I can only fit about 1/8 or less of my DB on it once I load up other data/apps. I had to create a "Camera Uploads Archive" folder and move all my pictures to that then turn on selective sync for it because the "Camera Uploads" folder got way to big to keep on my MBP. I really wish I could still see the "Camera Uploads Archive" and if I tried to open or use one of the files it would download it until after I had finished with it. I'd love to be able to browser all my picture but I just don't have the space.

Dude. Just find a new job.
It really troubles me to know that we've started to apply this method of genetic testing for human sports as well, which this article mentions. Testing and admitting children based on their genetics traits is a slightly removed method of promoting eugenics all over again.

If this were to catch on, we can image little kids interested in competitive sports pre-screened and "discouraged" from playing competitively even before getting their first baseball glove or basketball. Imagine if this were to catch on to other "sports," such as e-sports or chess. It eerily mirrors the dystopian society depicted in Gattaca.

I don't think they want you to use 1000GB of storage so the fact that you won't is a feature. Terabyte limit essentially means "unlimited but don't do anything silly."

Dropbox has a really good Linux CLI client so I'm sure there are people who will manage to bump up against that limit.
I read the introduction of the wiki article, but I'm still at a lost.. the third party pays back the broker because it "wants to influence how the broker routes client orders" what? so if I were the broker I would deny or allow my customers transactions based on a third party?

I'm sure is not like this and the broker won't deny any transaction if I were the broker I would just get a commission on some transactions by third parties but I don't see what I could change in order to get a greater commission.

could you elaborate please, I'm at a lost.
I do get sick of every argument boiling down to "Gun to the head" corrosion.

similar when it comes to scanning a "code" for the login process. The main difference is that clef relies on API, or plugin integration. For clef to work on a website it has to be installed by website owner, hence their growth depends on website owners adoption rate. With keyless you identicate once, at its compatible with most site's out of the box: no code for the website owners to change/add.
In fact the arm can be remotely controlled. As of 2005[1] ground controllers can uplink sequences of commands for the arm to complete. According to an article[2] about this Dragon launch, DEXTRE (two-armed human-like remote manipulator) will be remotely commanded to unpack cargo from the Dragon's unpressurized trunk and mount it on the station. I believe this is not a new thing at all.

It is strange watching people have entire conversations using Voice Clips.

I disagreed with it more until she showed me the (hidden!!) option to make them not play back through speakerphone, which WeChat, of course, defaults to.

"Mostly it suits my tastes better."

Home canned brandied diced apples. Tastes as good as it sounds.

Another one you can't buy in any store at any price is home canned peach and rum sauce, which is pretty much pureed peaches and rum.

(edited to note the above two are right out of the Bell canning book, nothing exotic)

I'm well aware neither is very paleo or good for me, but given the effort required to prepare them, its a great special treat.

On a slightly different tangent I find it hard to find fajita chicken meat that is marinated the way I like it, with 1:1:1 ratios of orange, lemon, and lime juices. Why? I don't care if its right or wrong, I just know it tastes really good at those ratios!

The best stir fries I've ever had have been just "stuff from the fridge" all dumped in.
It won't. The supply will always outweigh the demand in professions that needs a better working environment the most (minimum wage, or lack of)
It won't be free. There is always execution cost. One form that is mentioned in the article is the 3 days of float they are collecting on all of their client accounts. Now whether the execution costs on robinhood are greater or lesser than other platforms is up in the air. But it won't be free.

What happens when National Geographic steals your art?
More likely they want exposure and a high profile win rather than that they really think this is as immoral as they claim (via their comparisons to Nazi experiments). If they can get away with it and boost their career, why should they care about the impact?
I think that looks good but I have to tell you that the idea of committing data to what appears to be one person who could get "hit by a bus" worries me.

I'd like to see on sites like that some kind of continuity plan.

Unless you are suggestion that this is just another "redundant array of backups that you have to assume can fail".

But even in that case it would be a good idea if cperciva had something posted on the site which showed there was someone else who had access and kept on top of the system.
1. For fun. For interaction and sharing with my lady.
2. I plan ahead only so far as when I'm actually buying groceries. Maybe sometimes I'll find a recipe or produce a list of stuff to try. May buy things for 2 or 3 days worth of meals.
3. All sorts of things. From bbq, vegetarian, thai, indian. We both enjoy all sorts of food.
4. No diet really. I prefer vegetarian but we eat most anything.
5. Prep everything before you actually cook. That way you can clean as you go and not be a total tornado train wreck in the kitchen.

The brokerage won't necessarily do it all for you. Back when I used to gamble on the stock market, my broker would annoyingly only list sales in the document, and it was up to me to comb through my records for each trade's cost basis. Would be a total pain if I was making 10+ tiny trades a day.

4. Not eating anything that gets my guts upset.
5. Slow cooker, toss it in and go hack something else.

The third party doesn't pay back the broker, they flat out pay them a fee to send transactions through their systems. The broker doesn't allow or deny any transactions, just in the absence of contradictory routing instructions they send their default orders through the third party.

The customer is usually none the wiser as they are being charged the same fee from their broker typically regardless of the routing. The only way a customer would know is if the broker discloses it to them. In the US equities markets that disclosure is a legal requirement.
