I'm from Mexico, and I semi correlate with this.

When I graduated from college, I worked my entire time there and was kind of over stressed/exhausted, so I took a sabatic year. I spent I guess 6 months browsing the web, reading about compilers, and watching video lectures, I just spent time with my mom. My dad started questioning me, but both were very supportive.

After about 6 months, I started to gain weight, so I decided to join a Gym. A pal offered me classes on a local university and things started to move on.

I was very depressed, sad, I didn't want to do anything, literally, I just wanted to sleep. At the end, I took about 16 months in rehabilitation, I grew frustrated of literally doing nothing, and started to work again, first at the family company as a hobby, then as general manager, it really helped me that I've been an entrepeneour since my 16's, and well. things just keeps going.

I really where on a different position than all of this persons, but I acknowledge it's very hard to stand on your feet after a break down. Is like you loss the will to live and you start giving a fuck about everything, friends, family, money, everything.

Returning to the sabatic year. the second part of that sabatic year, was one of the happiest moments on my life, I got a Girlfriend (Denisse), I traveled not a lot, but enough, wasted all the money I've saved from the company I had on college (I developed webpages), but I got some great friends, they were awesome people and I laughed and enjoyed life like never before.

Straightforward to the present time. last year suddenly I felt like the loneliest person on earth, I've been working so hard the last 6 years, that again I didn't had friends at all, I wake up, work, gym, bed. In that order, now I'm in my 30's, still single, I buyed a flat, buyed fourniture, but at the end, I still live with my parents, I just can't handle being alone there. and throught I can say I'm quite succesful, being succesful is not actually a requisite to make friends, a requisite to being friends is being happy, and was again stressed but now I was kind of angry with life too.

I changed gym (I used to go to a sports club rather exclusive, where I couldn't meet new people), joined graduate school, actually I'm studying two master degrees right now, one in applied statistics, and another one in business planification. I also joined new groups in order to meet new people. Things are changing now. Now I've friends againg to hang out on weekends. But damn, I have to make assessments every now and then about my life, and take corrective actions because if I just keep going, it seems that the path always takes me to a depressive life, maybe is my personality, maybe I isolate when I take a challenge (as a programmer, I like to program in isolation, so when I become general manager of the family company, I isolated myself until I took the company to profit again). Nevertheless, the only thing I take for sure is: Damn, life is difficult.
I don't remember X tabs back either, but you can't go back and forth between two tabs unless you place them next to each other and then use two separate shortcuts. That's a deal-breaker for me.
Try it for yourself, and don't be so dependent on third parties to tell you how to live your life. There's nothing to lose and a whole world of independence to gain. Honey and lemon is awesome if you have a cold - if you're not trying it yourself because there isn't a study to prove its efficacy, then you're missing out on one of the true great values in life: experiencing things for yourself.

No, the solution would be to get insurance against high insurance costs. This already happens with medical insurance. If you're already sick your insurance costs more. But if you get insurance in advance, before you know you'll be sick, it's cheaper. The same could happen with driving. Get insurance before you've driven, before you know you'll be risky.
As far as I understand the issue (and I am not a lawyer or involved in this kind of thing on either side), it would be the uploaders that would need sync licenses, not YouTube, as YouTube is a hoster and the uploaders are ultimately responsible. If I understand correctly, YouTube's responsibility is based in the DMCA and is limited to taking things down and having some way of kicking off repeat infringers.

Writing this comment made me go and set up a non-MRU way to switch between windows (7TT has a hidden option for this - no good TWMs on Windows, sadly).
You can remap this functionality, but this particular key combo doesn't seem to work.

By default it was on ctrl+3/4, and I don't think it's a wise choice as ctrl+number is good for either selecting first 10 tabs (chrome, ff), or for opening a speed dial entry (Opera=<12). I would actually like both of these functions, perhaps on alt+number and ctrl+number.
If you are, say, a startup with sensitive information being discussed in an IRC server that you run, do you really think your data would be more secure then? Keep in mind that you can't afford a security expert (or your own time) to admin your system if you're a small business.

As for reliability, I've been using Slack for months without a single outage. If it went down for a day, the impact would be minimal -- I'd just use email and communicate less for that one day. Or I'd switch to another provider. Big deal.
Why? If it's not a workstation card why can I no longer expect solid specs and performance? I don't need to work on doubles, so a customer grade card was perfectly reasonable for my work - and it was easily 5-6x cheaper than an equivalent Quattro/Tesla card. I hate the notion that if something is not from "professional" segment then it can be shitty or not fully spec compliant. It's still misleading advertising.

Maybe we perceive it as being boring because it is the average color of the universe?
- design layout looks cluttered. coloring of the ui to match the website is not a good idea. you cant really distinguish between browser and website, gives me a cluttered feeling.
- ui feels slow and flickering after some clicks
- double click on yosemite doesnt maximize instead it mimizes the window
- dont know why a modern browser needs todos, mail, notes and contacts. we have apps/webapps for that already.
- dont fetch stuff from google servers on startup
- tab grouping is useless for me, split screen etc. would be more useful imo
- integrate a service for bookmarks or deliver an api. local bookmarks are so 1995.
- rename it, vivaldi sounds very oldish and boring.
Yup, the majority of Vivaldi people are ex-Opera employees.
It sounds like great practice for HN:

"it's used primarily to keep law and order."

Except when it's not. No one disagrees the advantages afforded to us with access to data. However with great power comes great responsibility and our leaders, including the institutional powers behind them, invariably show a lack of the latter.

"Honestly, no-one cares."

That is patently untrue. People who understand the disadvantages and pitfalls of unfettered access to data care very much and fight for our rights even if we are too busy to make it a priority in our lives. The EFF have made it their job to care for example.

Ask HN: How can Facebook go down?
Surely Facebook's server code and databases are replicated around the world, partly for redundancy and partly for faster content delivery. So presumably a datacenter to burn down (or a big storm can hit the US) and Facebook could keep ticking over. What, then, could cause the whole thing to go down? I'd love to hear people's thoughts.

Perhaps the fault was with Akamai, but then my question really just changes to 'How can Akamai go down?'
What about solutions like Dropbox or Gmail? Or even plain old email for that matter. Even if you look after those yourself, how can you be 100% sure that you can offer a service that is more secure and reliable than a third party?

I've been looking for some real-world examples of how currying might be useful in javascript. Haven't not used a language which supports currying for any real world project, I'm interested to know how it can help.

I found a page [1] which talks about currying in javascript, then says "Are there practical uses for currying in JavaScript? Not really."

Can you point me at anything which will help me see why it's useful?

Have you tried to configure it manually? There's an option for previous/next tab shortcut in options menu, but not all key combinations seem to work.

As for your first remark, why not both? MRU is most useful for cycling between two (or similarly low number) tabs. It's not possible with "go right" function. You have (and "always" had) other shortcuts for spatial switching, which makes sense in some situations. So you can (and do) use those. Why remove functionality for key combo that works like that in other environments? Also, you have the "index" right there in your OS as well.
How about P2P connections, so nothing leave your company's internal network, because why should it? It's the most secure and reliable solution, but even running an IRC server on a local machine is so easy that you don't need an admin.
There have been reports of games having noticeable frame rate drops when they start to utilize the slow memory area, far above the few percent NVidia claims happen "typically". This might be fixable, either in the drivers or with game patches, but if they don't even publish the information that there is a special case, how are people supposed to work around it?

I imagine that if they had documented this from the start the backlash would have been way smaller, and it leaves people to wonder if problems they have are related to it.

It doesn't make a difference until someone trawls the databases and can reconstruct much of your life. Also even if it doesn't matter to you don't you want journalists and lawyers free from communication (and who they contact) surveilance?

I'm actually fine with a CCTV operator in a monitoring station viewing the feeds. I'm also OK with the recordings being kept a short time in case they are needed to investigate something not spotted at the time. What I'm not comfortable with is them being kept more than a month or so. CCTV footage kept long term may be linked with Face recognition for detailed and personal tracking.

Likewise with the ANPR, I would be OK with it kept and accessible for a month or so (although I think a judge should approve searches both on a particular event (time and location) and for searches on a particular number plate.

We may not yet live in a authoritarian state but can you rule out one occuring in the next 50 years? What if legal and reasonable things today are outlawed, gay rights roled back and they search the ANPR for people who may have frequented gay bars or the archived communications data for anyone who used Grindr.

In my view the collected knowledge is more dangerous than the terrorists to a free society and oversight and limits on retention are required.

You are right though that the majority of the public do not feel this way yet. That doesn't mean we shouldn't oppose the surveilance where not fully justified and try to educate them.

I would also note precisely what you said "people I know feel safer with surveilance" and while I think you may be right I'm really not sure how much safer they actually are.

To be fair they both sound like quite a piece of work. There are very few women who would willingly leave their children behind just because their husband told them to not to mention leave them in foster care just because you now have a life.

Part of being a parent is sacrificing everything in order to raise your children regardless how old they are.

It's a tough life she choose so in a way that's probably best for the children but still not fair to them.
You're correct, those foods that you posted are very caloric dense - however, you don't necessarily need to choose to eat those foods. There are far healthier alternatives that will fill you up, and have way less calories.

E.g. my breakfast is 6 sticks of wheatbix + skim milk, 3 apples, 3 pears. Probably similar calories to a large chocolate bar, and way more satisfying =). My lunch is a wholemeal sandwich with fresh tomatoes, lettuce and some chicken breast, plus fruit. Very tasty, and not as caloric dense.

For me, during my lunchtime run or swim, I usually burn between 300-350 calories (Garmin GPS watch with heart-rate monitor, I'm assuming it has reasonable accuracy).

Then the cycle to work, 100 calories, the cycle back home, another 100 calories.

Then 2-3 nights a week, I go to a kickboxing or weights session, that's probably 400-500 calories (This is very much an estimate - I can't wear my heart rate band during those sessions).

Then weekends, you can go for a longer run/swim. It's fun! Ultimately though, you need to find activities you enjoy, otherwise you won't do them.

You just need to find the healthy food you like eating, and the exercises that you like doing.
I was likewise hoping that if this new browser used Servo. When I got to the part that said it would be fast, and efficient, and run on old hardware, I thought that Servo would do a good job of that—it has none of the cruft that <WebKit|Gecko|Blink> has.

But then I saw the part that said the browser's UI was Built on Web Technology, and then I read your comment, and my dreams were crushed forever.

Disappointing.

Seriously, I can't understand how they expect this to be any faster when everything on the homepage (which is still mostly content-free) says otherwise.
I downloaded it without any expectations, and I must say I'm impressed. It even runs our Chrome only single page app very well and fast. I'm looking forward to seeing where this one goes.

> Use of force against people who commit such crimes as selecting their own sexual partners, being seen in public with members of the opposite sex, texting members of the opposite sex, being homosexual, etc.

This happens but you tolerate it because it's consistent with your arbitrary local culture. Consider pedophilia (having "wrong" sexual feelings) which comes with chemical castration and an attempt to "cure" it along with imprisonment of course. You don't even have to abuse anyone to suffer some of these consequences. Sound familiar? Have you ever met any self-confessed pedophile who hadn't been arrested for a related crime? Until they're outed, they're forced to keep their feelings secret from everyone because it's a kind of western thought crime. This leads us to imagine that all pedophiles rape children. They don't any more than 60 years ago all homosexuals raped children.
In old Opera you were shown an ordered list of tabs when using ctrl+tab (as you have in window managers). Not exactly what you were talking about, but it was not just random guessing as for which tab will pop up next. You saw how many you had to go, or you could use a mouse. You have other shortcuts for go left/right when those make sense.

Also, my biggest issue is with the inability to change this behavior. So I don't think there is one right way to do things (as there obviously isn't). I think such option should be included in settings, or at least let it be possible via extension (as is in FF). By the way, request for this option is one of the top voted issues in chromium (like in top 10 of all time I think), yet it was closed as WONTFIX without any comment from developers.

As a user, a different UI is a more compelling reason to switch than a new engine, as long as the "old, boring" engine performs well enough. I miss the Opera UI of the olden days, but Chrome's engine works just fine for me (memory usage is a bit annoying, but tolerable)

(Not saying that it isn't important that people work on new, different engines as well in the long run)

In my experience, younger PIs and the field I work in in general is moving away from the passive voice. While your experience seems to be that passive voice is clearer, from my perspective it is clunky and inelegant.

I disagree that 1st person voice results in flowery prose. Bad writing remains bad independent of passive or first person style.

It can be much clearer and, well, direct to use first person voice ("To assess wether the effect data X suggests holds true when Y, we do Z1, Z2, and Z3 as they cover Y1, Y2, Y3". This is clean and clear and much nicer than the respective passive voice. But again, perhaps just my opinion.
I noticed the same problem when I sent a link to a friend. All this flashing blinking crap all over the page.

> So first, economy in Japan sucks, there is not that many jobs and houses to go around

There are plenty of jobs. In fact, there's a labor shortage. It's just that they're all shitty low-wage part time jobs with no security.

Housing only seems to be a problem in Tokyo. My wife and I have been looking at apartments and there are tons of all sizes that have been open for months. Nothing at all like back home in Sweden where there's a 3 year waiting list even outside of Stockholm.
> I think this is your speculation. :)

True, but I'm hedging my bets ;)

> You don't know if you need infinite precision or you can stop at Plank's[sic] level.

Objectively: we know that infinite precision computation is no obstacle, since we can just do everything symbolically in proof-space rather than numerically in value-space. Whether we can call that "simulation" is a matter of semantics, but it's "only" an exponential slowdown.

Empirically: we know that the Planck-level interactions have no observable effects on macro-scale phenomena. If they did, we wouldn't need to build particle accelerators! Brains do not exploit particle physics for their abilities; there is no point simulating at any scale lower than up/down quarks + electrons + photons. They don't even exploit nuclear physics; there's no point simulating at a scale below the atomic. Brains do exploit chemistry, so an atomically-precise simulation may be justified.

Of course, that's only if we want a faithful simulation. There's nothing to say that protein-level simulations won't be perfectly fine, or even cell-level, if the relevant lower-level effects can be approximated. Some current approaches operate at the level of mini-columns, and work well on standard AI tasks like computer vision.

These coarser-grained simulations are less precise than the finer-grained ones, but all that matters is that they exhibit intelligent behaviour (however we're defining it). Even if some atomic-level quirk were being exploited by biological brains, we may still be better off without it. Again, it's all a matter of resource usage (intelligence per CPU-second/GB/dollar/etc.). A coarse-grained simulation might not be as intelligent as a fine-grained simulation, but it will run much faster; instead of spending more resources to run the fine-grained simulation, why not spend those same resources running the coarse-grained simulation at faster than real-time, with a larger virtual brain?
