Tokenadult,

Out of curiosity, given that you've said in your previous comments that you believe medical questions are best answered with 'science-based medicine', which is a philosophy that explicitly rejects evidence-based medicine: do you believe that the FDA covering up scientific fraud is bad, or do you agree with the FDA's argument that it's justified?

Also, do you still believe that "It's an exaggeration (contradicted by thoughtful comments by drug industry researchers who have already posted replies in this thread) to say that the enterprises that develop new drugs for prescribed medical treatment are corrupt in general [...]."?
> Why not just have the wire sniffer decode the frames before presenting them.

Certainly possible, but why make our lives harder by implementing HTTP/2 such that it requires a decoder to read in the first place? If the number of bytes sent remains the same, why not make the fields as self-documenting as possible?

> Everything that speaks HTTP2 also speaks HTTP1.1

No, they have fundamentally different wire formats. This statement isn't even true for HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0, which both have the same wire formats and share many fields but have different interpretations for some of them.

It is a balance between playability and automation. Even minesweeper does that (auto deduce that a large region can be opened up). What I described is only the first-order "convenience" checking to avoid the pain of going way back because of a miscounting.

Regarding the hint button. I don't want to use it precisely because I don't want to "win" by repeatedly getting hints.
Rats are social creatures so you can't just measure the area of their habitat divided by the number of inhabitants. The experiment setup would be analogous to humans living either in prisons or in solitary confinement.

In my previous comment, I cited another study (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9148292?dopt=Abstract) that also failed to replicate RP. That time the flaw of that replication was possible inadvertently introduced strain differences among the mice. It's always possible to find some variable that is different and therefore claim that the result isn't relevant. I'd imagine that's one big reason why replication efforts is so uncommon in the scientific community.

Btw, BK Alexander has had over 30 years on him to setup a new Rat Park, have it monitored by other scientists, and prove once and for all that his original results weren't just "a fluke."
Raise the salary.
No, it's not, since it's equivalent covering of cost for Asian-Americans and everyone else. That's an example of straightforward discrimination. This is demanding that an organization put forward additional specialized effort at its own expense for materials it is releasing for free.

> I'm pretty sure this is indeed largely caused by your Python bias. In my experience, Haskell code does not end up littered with Maybes.

I think the Maybes and other optional/sum types tend to be limited to the boundaries, where you do IO or handle errors, while your internal functions can deal with the concrete type. A code base littered with Maybes is certainly a code smell.

It seems to be the case.
I'm saddened that Pax's work at Glimpse didn't help to redeem his reputation. Pax showed excellent judgment on social media for the entire time that he was my cofounder. And we did excellent work together (we consistently had 10 - 18% week over week traction, app had five star reviews, well known security experts pen tested our app and found it was well designed etc.)

For what it's worth, some VCs did want to fund Glimpse. We didn't follow up on that while Pax was on board, for various reasons. A significant A raise would likely have helped Pax rebrand positively in a mainstream way.

Pax is now publicly pro-gamer gate (as you can see on his Twitter feed and with his most recent startup ExposeCorrupt.) I understand why that would have an impact on marketability.

As much as we talk about diversity in technology, there are some ideas and some kind of people that are simply not welcome. I worry about this a bit because I think it hurts a lot of people, not just neo-reactionaries.
I have to agree. It's a real disappointment to ask for "Sriracha Sauce" while travelling outside of North America, having the host say "yes, we have that", and then getting some watered down lukewarm sauce. (edit: to add to the comment below, this experience was at a seemingly authentic(ish) Thai restaurant in France with pictures of the king everywhere).

Huy Fong ought to brand their products like Pfizer is. (Though Pfizer is trying to sell brand over generics, which is ridiculous when it comes to medications).
I have a similar problem and this sounds like a great way to combat it. I'm curious, do you write down the little pieces as a todo list or do you just make a mental note and go about it?

If you know who this is and who the kid is you should give the kid this information and tell the kid he can sue in small claims. This is a clear-cut case of fraud. There's even a witness. The lack of a written contract does not matter.
One problem is that, unless you're a deaf teacher, it was not in OCW's remit to make it's offering accessible to you.

Now that OCW has run out of its original block of money and is passing around its hat, that could of course change, then again it shows every sign of being only a step away from maintenance mode right now (all the mojo is presumably with edX, which OCW obviously helped to blaze a path to).

So it this "ignoring", or simply a trade-off in the face of limited resources? If you want the properly captioned option, what are you willing to give up to achieve that?
I took a look at the press release. At the top it I found: "Sorry, you need to install flash to see this content."

> You wouldn't believe how much is possible to do in a home lab and dna/rna based techniques are becoming more and more accessible as well.

Sure, but combine the lack of such equipment for most people with the fact that your experiments will have small n size (because of lack of pilot plant scale to do proper large batches of drugs) and the significance of the home trial drops to nil.
I guess the answer is that there's room for both. Just as some seek out mass-produced pop music, there's also a large segment of the population that seeks out the exact opposite.

FWIW (anecdotal evidence to follow)- I've purchased other varieties of Sriracha sauce that were not the original Sriracha brand and they did not taste the same and they did not taste as good.

As long as the recipe is protected, Sriracha is largely untouchable. Folks will likely try other brands and then switch back when they're not satisfied. That and the fact that Sriracha isn't expensive make it tough competition for those trying to ride Huy Fong Foods' coattails.

Like others here, I'll compromise on Coke vs. Pepsi or Valentina/Cholula/Tabasco/etc. but I have not and will not compromise on the OG Sriracha.

> There should be a very obvious test for this right?

Yes, definitely, but I'm pretty sure it won't happen, and such a solution should not be allowed to make such claims ("intended to cover all human nutritional requirements for an adult") without any data supporting it, or at least a clear indication of the risks people take on it. In any case, some data is needed before you sell this kind of stuff to the public.
I second that. It's weak.
Also - Pax apologized and then spent over a year being an excellent citizen of the startup community and on social media. I worry about an ecosystem that is so unforgiving.

I believe that ostracizing people - without the possibility of giving them second chances - is ultimately bad for everyone. It takes folks who have messed up and disenfranchises them so that they no longer have a stake in their reputation and participation in the community.
"...the original spicy, sweet concoction — which was inspired by flavors from across Southeast Asia and named after a coastal city in Thailand."

No. His sauce is based on Thai Sriracha sauce (which is probably named after the Sriracha district in Thailand [1]). Trademarking the name would roughly be the equivalent of taking mustard to Thailand and trademarking "Mustard".

Paper mills and other wood processing make for great instantaneous interruptible load.

In NZ one of the major electricity generating companies pays some major industrial customers for the ability to cut them off, enabling them to reallocate the power almost as if it were additional generation.

Linux starts to act weird around 200,000 concurrent connections in my experience, even with aggressive sysctl tuning. You end up with weird edge cases like netstat literally taking 15 minutes of CPU time (in kernel) before it dumps the list of connections to stdout.

Facebook supports React simply because it's a tool that allows them to effectively develop UIs that perform well. That's it.

If you're talking about the web, the virtual-dom diffing strategy employed by React performs better than other ways to render complex UIs in the browser.

The whole point of React is to make writing CSS and HTML easier. It integrates wonderfully.

This resonated with me a lot. It's so true when he says, "there’s no updated central repository of truth. In addition, accurate information is hard to obtain, because both employers and applicants are incentivized to lie"

I wish there was a system that connects people and employers in such a way that the hiring (and applying) process is more transparent. It doesn't seem like this industry has really changed much over time, and I'd really like to see "software eat HR" sometime soon. #marcandreesen
You can't upvote this enough. If the predictions of your model don't square up with reality, reality that came into being through evolution on the geological timescale, it's time that you should look at the shortcomings of your model. Perhaps it can evolve into something with actual predictive value.

The goodput decreases for everyone then, since each flow requires a 3-RTT handshake and 1-2-RTT tear-down. This is particularly bad if you're starting up a lot of small flows, where the control-plane information becomes a non-negligible fraction of the total data sent.

I think ideally, we'd create a TCP variant where localhost maintains a per-destination receiving window for all flows to that destination, so flows running in parallel or flows started in rapid succession won't have to start their windows at 0 and slowly increase them. Moreover, this way congestion control applies to all packet flows for a (source, destination) pair, instead of to individual flows.

HTTP/2 and HTTP pipelining take a crack at this by running multiple application-level flows (i.e. HTTP requests) through the same receiving window (i.e. the same TCP socket), but they're not the only application-level protocols that could stand to benefit.
The University already has permanent positions (lecturer/instructor) defined in their salary structure. Which are relatively well paid and have the same workload that I do now. But they are pretending that my job is a rolling "temp" position, because it's cheap and they can get away with it. That's the bottom line. And they have to be stopped getting away with it. That's why I wrote the article. And I have overwhelming support from present and former students too.
And this article doesn't even cover 95% of the problems with the FDA, many of which are as bad or worse. But on this topic, here is a good example that the article missed:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A9802-2004Sep9...

Basically the FDA ordered pharma companies bury the research showing that antidepressants were ineffective in children and could lead to suicide, because they were worried that parents would stop spending money on them.
Start small. Make a function that takes a string which is part of an English word and returns a list of completions for that word. If on Linux, use the word list in `/usr/share/dict/words`.

The next step up is to improve on that function. F.e. if the string is "disc" a good candidate probably is "discussion" but not "discus" unless that word previously occurs in the document.

Then continue from there. Coding is learnt by doing not by reading guides.

The main similarity is that 'methods' are defined 'outside' the data type they belong to. But there are a huge number of differences: Haskell's typeclasses are used for many things that don't look like methods at all, while Go's behave more like a classic OOP interface you'd find in Java.

So, perhaps superficially similar-looking, but they work quite differently in practice.

In my case, one day I had a huge panic attack. Woke up the next day a complete nervous wreck. Looked through yellow pages for therapist. Decided to give it a few day to see if
the intense daily anxiety would get a little bit better. It didn't.

A couple of weeks later I found a therapist. Great--He will
help me. Well, I was seeing him two times a week for months. I paid
his fees through what was left of my student loans. Months
went by. I cried, and cried. We talked about my childhood.
I went to a Behaviorist--followed his instructions--still nothing. Finally was referred to a Psychatrist--who didn't
seem to have a clue to what was wrong with me. Finally, on my last referal I found a Psychiatrist who at least acted like he knew what was going on. Yes, he did prescribe
a addictive drug, after trying most of the non addictive drugs. In my case, Klonopin is the only drug that seemed to
alleviate my misery, but it was not enough; I still needed to self medicate. More importantly, this Psychiatrist reassured me that the crazy thoughts I was having was
nothing to worry about. It was the way he told me--I could
see in his face that he has heard my symptomology before, and
I was not going crazy. That was priceless!

I can say anxiety ruined the life I was preparing for, but my anxiety symptoms eventually got better over the years. I look back on the Therapy and I sometimes think it did more damage than good? I really was honest in Therapy, and so
wanted it to work, but I got nothing out of it in the slightest?

I don't have any advise because every patient is
different. I can offer this, if you go on an addicive drug keep the level of medication low. You might be suprised just how long you will live? You don't
want to work that liver to the brink of failure. It's ironic, that my biggest fear when I had my breakdown was The
fear of Death. I just couldn't come to terms with it. I literally felt I only had a few years/months left--while I was beyond healthy at that point in my life. I wouldn't wish the way I was feeling on my worst enemy. I felt like I was in Hell. It does get better with time. I'm glad I didn't commit suicide.

Several issues with the article:

- The first comparison between US and Japan businesses, as mentioned by other folks, does not make sense.

- I would not call "businesses" a enterprise that remains small for like 500 years (i.e. just a couple of folks). None of the businesses they refer to actually made it to becoming large corporations. This is more related to craftsmanship than anything else, and what made it possible for the line to continue is partly because of the adoption solution as mentioned in the article. I'd rather call that a "surviving tradition" than an actual business.

- Building buddhist temples back in 500's was not a sure way to earn a living. This was not the main religion in Japan then, and it was still the early beginnings of its introduction in a largely Shintoist country. Again, this is survivor bias from whoever wrote the article.

Well, I had to look up mendacious and invidious, but I believe you're claiming they're lying to provoke an angry reaction. It seemed pretty straightforward to me; they present the lawsuit, explain their interpretation of the law, explain the goals of the suit, and demonstrate why the current captioning system is insufficient.

The only line I had any kind of problem with was "No captions is like no ramp for people in wheelchairs or signs stating ‘people with disabilities are not welcome.’" I do think that's hyperbolic, but I understand the idea that these schools were given the resources to "build a ramp" and just decided not to. Regardless, it's not "thuggery", it's just a point of view I disagree with.
