But yet it works. The tricky thing about gender roles is that while they may not be progressive nor just, much of the participation is voluntary.

There isn't exactly the Gender Role Police sitting around going "NO! SWIPE RIGHT!" "NO, SWIPE LEFT!". These trends are voluntary from the participants.

This may be a bit tragic - i.e., people voluntarily disempowering themselves by reinforcing gender roles that work against them - but yet this happens. En masse even.

"It works" doesn't imply correctness. It just implies that it produces the desired result to a sufficient level of consistency/reliability.
I had mine removed two years ago and my experience was similar. The first time it happened, it felt like just an odd kind of hunger—it seemed like my stomach was just telling me to feed it. Then I was fine for about four or five years before it would come back periodically over two years or so, getting worse each time.

The second time I went to the doctor about it, they did some bloodwork and found that I had an elevated white blood cell count. It was two days after the appointment and they called me up (I was still home sick) and told me to get to the ER immediately.

They considered operating that night, but said I'd have a better chance of getting a laparoscopic surgery if I waited for the infection to subside. They injected me with some really good painkillers and eventually sent me on my way.

I was on antibiotics for a few weeks before surgery. As it turned out, the stones were still too big, and the whole thing was still a mess, so my surgeon just had to just cut me open. He later told me it was one of the worst gallbladders he'd ever seen. Instead of one night in the hospital, it was five days, and then another few weeks of recovery at home.

Overall it was pretty rough but I haven't found that it has affected my ability to digest fat much, if at all.

Hell, many places will release you from a non-complete if it gets you to fuck off faster after being let go. Non-competes aren't really about punishing after you leave, they are there to "encourage" you to stay.
Retail fast food restaurant - <$50,000

Home-based service business - <$5,000

All these businesses can be started with either 1) personal savings, 2) a family and friends loan, or 3) credit cards. They all also have the advantage of generating cash from day 1, vs a tech startup which can have substantial development time.

I had the opposite experience. I went with an ingrown toenail to a urgent care, and was prescribed antibiotics that did nothing.

I finally went to a pediatrist who explained that people have ingrown toenails often, but it's typically not an issue. The only time you notice you have an ingrown toenail is when it becomes infected. He said that sometimes the antibiotics cure the infection, but it leaves the ingrown toenail intact to become infected again at a later date. He also said that it's hard to predict what type of bacteria will infect the toenail so it's hard to treat it properly and the antibiotic is a shot in the dark.

What he did was cut the ingrown toenail out with his special scissors and told me that if that toenail became ingrown again he'd do something called a "partial nail matrixectomy" My toenail became ingrown again about a year later and he did the matrixectomy. What happens is the toenail grows from a "matrix" at the bed of the nail, and they burn a tiny section of it with an acid and it scars. This prevents a few millimeters of the nail from growing, preventing it from ever becoming ingrown again. The toenail functions perfectly normally and looks normal after about a year.
I have my gall bladder removed half year ago. Feel very good now. I am glad to see this post. I don't think "gallbladder cleansing" is a good idea. One of reason is that the gall bladder keeps making stone, and the little stone in the gall bladder might drop into the bile duct, which cause more serious problem.

Non compete clauses do not make sense for employees that are not highly compensated. They are a violation of the 13th amendment and frequently unenforceable. This doesn't stop people from trying to use them as a tool to increase employee retention especially in the face of poor work conditions and bad management. If an employer insists on one, you should ask for compensation. Make sure they agree to pay you some amount greater than your equivalent total compensation with benefits for the entire duration of the non-compete period.

- Making my Markdown Format package for Atom have zero external dependencies by compiling the Go code into JavaScript. That way there's no need to install and point to the markdownfmt binary, making install easier. https://github.com/shurcooL/atom-markdown-format/commit/6b5f...

- Replacing JavaScript with Go code in Go Package Store, still a WIP PR because I need to figure out a `go get` difficulty, but aside from that it works perfectly well. https://github.com/shurcooL/Go-Package-Store/pull/18

- Various experimental things that run in the browser and perform operations that use existing Go code. For example: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8554242/dmitri/projects/... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8554242/dmitri/projects/...

- At work, I've created a small standalone project with a frontend UI that reused some common structs and html template code between the frontend and backend (ala node.js, except all in Go).

- Working on porting my small OpenGL game written in Go to run in the browser. The goal is to have the same Go code use OpenGL when on desktop, but use GopherJS and WebGL when compiling for the browser.

Basically, it lets me do all the things that one would normally be forced to use JavaScript for (i.e., frontend code) but without having to use JavaScript (I'm not good at it and I don't like it), while benefitting from Go compiler to catch errors, autocomplete, godocs, goimports, etc. It also allows me to import and use existing Go packages that perform non-trivial tasks.
We have 5 full-time matchmakers with varied backgrounds, mostly in psychology, theater, and working at other matchmaking agencies. We often get questioned more on what makes our matchmakers good, than another company would get questioned on what makes their engineers, or other employees good. This is both because matchmaking isn't a common profession, and because matchmaking is a majority female profession that tends to get undervalued and not viewed as a 'real' profession.

Our matchmakers stay up to date on trends, have exceptionally high EQs, have experience matching thousands of people, and we accept under 1% of people who apply for the job.
The interests of the clients are irrelevant. If you owned a business and your competitor used your business's facilities to promote his to your detriment, you'd understandably be upset. That's precisely what the poster is being accused of.

It's a bit unfair to act as though nihilism simply removes all profound meaning from things. After all, life has a terrible mortality rate, but it's oddly not 100% [0]. We tend I live as though we'll keep living, a delusion that takes hold pretty hard for most people. A photograph helps reset that, as it's always showing a point in the past that's now lost, but does so with clarity; normally the past is fuzzier than that, and that can be a bit disquieting.

Heck, I'm not a professional philosopher by any stretch, though. Just someone who putters with stuff.

True - I was using an extreme example to make a point.

It would be more accurate to say that I don't have to, and that I sometimes don't. I'd be more likely to say "Can you pass me the salt?" or "pass the salt, will you?", which strikes me as a middle ground between "Please can you pass me the salt" and "Pass me the salt."

Nothing about that campaign itself was sexist. But mix women and dating, and you get a ton of outcry from the media that the women are prostitutes. As a feminist company, that wasn't fun for us to be associated with, but there was little we could do about that. The trip was mostly a joke, and also because we honestly thought a few people may end up having a good time. And one woman ended up falling in love and is now moving to SF.

So, I'd hold off on insulting YC based on some publicity we've received. And .. all press is good press for growth for an early stage startup.

No, that's a strawman. I'm specifically referring to those things we often look back and marvel at: "Wow, they ran a rocket to the moon on a computer with less power than my calculator!" and that sort of thing. We flung core memory into space, a ridiculous use of precious mass. We had no ability to computer simulate anything, which includes many things in addition to the obvious aerodynamics, like materials science computations and such.

The time that we're ready to start seriously moving into space isn't in the indefinite future, it's about now, which is I think why you're starting to see a real private "renaissance" in space (really the first time we should be going with people). The space technology that we actually had the base for was satellites, which you'd note we've made a great deal of use of.

And, well, look at what happened... we got to the moon, and, then... uh... now what? Uh... can't actually do anything. Couldn't leave robots behind, they weren't ready. Couldn't leave people behind. Couldn't do much more than toodle around in a photo-op moon buggie and bring some rocks back. Use your brain, don't just mindlessly rah-rah space travel... we got there too soon. We weren't ready to do anything except look good. We're finally getting to the point where we can seriously plan on what things we might do, and where we really are is still building the foundation we need (cheap access to space). We tried to bull ahead without building the foundation we needed, and that had the usual result.

On the topic of not mindlessly rah-rahing, let me observe that if one insists that the apex of human space travel was achieved in the 1960s, things look quite dim. Despite superficially seeming to slag on the accomplishments of the past (though if you look deeper you will observe that I've actually lined up an argument about how they are in many ways even more impressive than they seem due to being so very far ahead of their time), it's my view here that is actually the hopeful one for the future. We aren't in some sort of inevitable decay... we just got too excited and ran too far ahead, and the next 20 years ought to be great for space travel. We've finally got the resources to start making it cheap, something a corporation can do, instead of "shows up on the national budget as a top-level line item" expensive.
So, do you consider the Go1 compatibility guarantee to be a mistake? Most suggested stdlib or lang improvements are DOA for the time being as a result, which is annoying, but of course so too would be frequent breakages.

Its just as bad if not worse from a customer perspective. The Mac App Store is basically the antithesis of what Apple is theoretically about ("the details") while at the same time highlighting everything Apple is bad at (ahem hem >services<). Some simple examples:

1. I go to buy an app, oh, I already own it. I know since it says "Installed". So helpful, now I can go search for it again on my computer. Compare this to the iPhone where it isn't completely idiotic and instead of "installed" says "open" which you can click on.

2. Type "Diasy Disk" into the Mac App Store search. You'll get 5 results that AREN'T "Daisy Disk". That's because Apple couldn't search their way out of a paper bag.

3. Let me send a link to this app to my friend. Of course its buried in an unlabeled drop down since sharing content is a decade ahead of any thinking going on at Apple. Let's not try to get any network affects for these apps, that would be silly.

4. The top 10 is full of apps I already own. Super useful. Really makes me want to open this thing up periodically if I'm feeling spendy. Heaven forbid the tailor that page to at the very least show the top 10 apps I don't own. But we live in a world where selling me toilet paper online is more sophisticated than applications.

4.1. My favorite is that #2 on top free is OS X Mavericks. How about just putting up a banner telling me reasons to upgrade to Mavericks instead of eternally taking up a slot in the top 10 free essentially making it a top 9? Especially when most your customer base is already on Mavericks and thus making that slot the most useless slot ever.

5. Hey what was that app I was looking at yesterday? Welp, since we chose to make it a super-fast amazing native experience, I don't get simple features like browsing history that I'd get from this being in a browser. But hey, at least all these 3d graphics in the Mac App Store are crazy performant right? Now if only I could view two apps at once, you know, like maybe two competitors I'd like to compare, in tabs...

It's funny because they ended up having to mirror the content on the web anyways, so the Mac App Store is now the worse of the two options you get (the other being google -> mac app store pages)

This is great, the biggest weakness is there it's based on gmail so the value is limited unless one's entire network is on the service.

> Once again, I don't understand why people think having a myriad of input styles and behaviors via JS is better than a speced standard input supported by the majority of browsers, accessible, and well-defined behaviors.

Because there is no speced standard input. The only speced part is the API and the markup. The implementation is left entirely up to the browser.

Once again, I am going to try to condense my point: date input is a great idea. A sane simple API for the datepicker would be great. In practice, how the widget looks and works (not the API, just the UI) has been left up the browser vendors who proceeded to screw it up on the desktop. Only one desktop browser currently supports it, and does a very poor job of making it actually usable. As is, <input type="date"> cannot be used on the desktop, IME. As I see no movement to actually spec out the UI, or to actually implement a standard customizable datepicker across all major desktop browsers, I think this effort should mostly be abandoned.

Instead I would like to see one of two solutions: (a) keep <input type="date"> and its associated API's, etc. but allow developers to at least override the default widget. (b) Scrap the entire thing and start from scratch on a new spec that politically people can actually get behind.

P.S.: While terrible JS widgets to exist, there has been a huge movement to make them accessible. For example see http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.10/dijit/a11y/state.... Also, what do you think the native chrome widget is built with, C++?
That sounds like a wildly unproductive way to work. Discourages ever changing anything.
We added that to staging based on a previous comment, and the change will be live by tomorrow. And getting signups in other cities doesn't help our stats or conversion rates (it actually lowers them). We have it available since we plan to launch in other cities, but when we do launch in Europe that is great feedback for us to have, and we'll be changing quite a bit before then.

I've not read anyone mention "discoverability" as part of Apple's value proposition to developers.

Years ago I experienced great traction with the free download site Apple provided.

Prior to that - much more significant traction from the hundreds of PC download sites.

It's amazing to see how much the world has changed in 13 years for software developers. It's probably better not to look back. :/

> Thus, the thermodynamic equation of "energy_in - energy_out = delta energy_stored" is certainly valid at a technical level, but it has no practical utility for weight loss.

It has immense practical utility as the only sure way to loose weight. If you can obey it.

> Both energy in and energy out are black box functions that vary by individual, and include types and quantities of foods eaten and current fat stores as input parameters.

The point is you can estimate upper bound of energy_in and lower bound of energy_out.

> The stoichiometry of inhaled oxygen and exhaled carbon dioxide won't help. Taking body temperature and recording urine and sweat volume won't help.

No one does that. People just read values of calories expenditure for various activities from the tables. Same way as they don't own a calorimeters to control their calories intake just read from the tables.

Since you don't need to match the intake with expenditure exactly, rough values are sufficient to let you know if you are in the ballpark of eating less than you spend.

You don't even need values, just cut your meals size in half without changing their contents or number. Or cut their number in half. If you don't loose weight cut them even more. The only trouble is to pay less attention to how you feel and what you want. Physics won't help you with that.

As for the anecdotes ... I lost some weight when I stared eating at Mc Donalds. Because I ate one big mac and fries per day and just some apples apart from that.
Which is why my complaint is about the desktop. As I mentioned, on mobile the widget actually works correctly: it looks like a native OS datepicker. Native OS datepickers do not exist on the desktop: not in the browser, not anywhere else, unless you count the Windows clock dialog.

I might be wrong, but as far as I am aware the last time Apple and Microsoft faced each other in court was when Apple sued Microsoft in 1988. When the dust settled, IE was the default Mac browser and Microsoft owned $150m of Apple stock.

>Text isn't the optimal format because a program is not a lineal thing, but closer to a tree structure.

I can tell you what it's like from experience. The Interlisp D environment used a structure editor rather than a text editor. I found it infuriating and clumsy. Admittedly I had come from the emacs-infused PDP-10/Maclisp & Lispm world, so I gave it several months, but in the end I adapted an Emacs someone else had started and did all my editing in that.

I figure if this would work for any language it would be Lisp, and it didn't work for me. It sounds like a great idea, since if the editor's "buffer structure" is the program structure it's easy to write lambda functions to, say, support refactoring your code. But it was rarely convenient.

The other thing that didn't work for me was that it was of course a mouse-driven interface (this was PARC after all) and I found shifting my hand off the keyboard all the time slowed me down a lot too.
