Some believe the use of glyphosate in wheat farming materially alters gluten, which alters your body's response to it. No proof one way or the other yet, but certainly an area where more scientific inquiry is appropriate.

Wow, that "history" is so painfully wrong. The FCC didn't lobby to get involved in radio, nor did it somehow add the licensing requirement after it was granted regulatory authority over radio.

Licenses that could be denied for radio was a policy adopted by Congress in the same law that created the Federal Radio Commission, before the FCC existed. The FCC inherited its radio role from the Federal Radio Commission. Neither the FCC, nor its predecessor, could have lobbied for the power to grant and deny licenses, because they didn't exist when Congress was considering creating that power.
The patients know they're eating a pill - the administrators have to tell them something about this pill, even in a double blind study. Did they tell them "this pill contains gluten" (even though the placebo group did not receive gluten) or did they tell them "this pill contains no gluten" or did they tell them "this pill may or may not contain gluten"? Maybe they told them "this pill contains an experimental drug for combatting gluten intolerance". it does matter what they used.
I wrote a singleton the other day. Using Java, I had a static utility class that had a function that I wanted to memoize. So I put a static HashMap in the class to do the lookups. There's no reason to have multiple copies, and it's easy to instantiate it only if it is needed.
I work very hard to have tools reject pull requests as much as possible. For python I am making good use of https://github.com/landscapeio/prospector to enforce pep257 and pep8 compliance. It also catches a lot of things (through pylint and frosted/flake8) that humans often do not, such as unused variables.

The advantage is that tools reject the pull request, and not a person. It doesn't harm ego to be rejected by a tool.
Since people expressed interest, my side project is https://cookacademy.com

Happy to offer whatever help I can outside of the site, too.
Do the governments and MNCs approaching you perceive you as working on their behalf? Are they willing to disclose a maximum rate they're willing to pay, or is there a reasonable "rule of thumb" estimate you can use to start off with?

If so, negotiate the lowest possible rate with your suppliers - who could get more similar work from you in future - and tell your government/MNC that you have one or more parties willing to do it for $xxk, and your fee for arranging everything is $xk. You'll put them in touch and walk them through the process of actually hiring the drone everything after they've accepted your $x fee.

Congratulations, you're now a drone charter broker, possibly the world's first.
At its heart, flash/hdd is just a key:value database (presented with 4k value size) why would we want to complicate that

To avoid an inherent bottleneck?. Perhaps we'd be better served by a larger number of key:value stores with greater parallelism?

As far as I can tell, Linux still has less than 2% of the desktop market share. Windows Phone has something like 2% of the mobile market share and I think it would be unrealistic to say that platform is doing 'alright.' Adoption matters more than whether it is sort of possible to buy a computer with it preinstalled. Raspberry Pis aren't desktops, either. Though it's possible to use one as a really low powered desktop, that certainly isn't the majority use case. Even if all 5 million Pis sold were used as Linux desktops, that's still tiny in a world with 2 billion desktop computers.

There may be little you 'need' Windows for today, but it is still overwhelmingly the go-to choice for desktop computing. I also think you may be incorrect on your assertion that most new software is either browser based or cross-platform; that may be the case for a lot of the products you're exposed to but I don't think you're considering the vast amount of niche software out there.

Lest I be accused of any bias, I am a happy desktop Linux user.
Wait, what? Different kinds of polymorphism? Shouldn't there be a special word for that?
Think Windows is vulnerable? Thing again, OS X, iOS and Linux have more
I know that

I'm asking what they are told, of course in a double-blind study they are never told if they're given the drug or the placebo, but they tell the people "this is an experimental drug for X"

But they might have told them "This is a treatment for gluten intolerance" or "this is purified gluten" or nothing

Wrong proposal. That's the proposal they dropped after seeing the comments.
I have to disagree, no bugs is better than some bugs. Pushing a change that introduces bugs is wrong (without the scare quotes).

This (sw design) is a multidimensional optimization problem with a somewhat vague cost function. But argmin on the # of bugs and argmax on feature completion is far more important than everyone following some random standard.
> Everything is limited but the FCC only has eyes for LONG RANGE MEANS OF COMMUNICATION.

Well, there's the matter of their statutory brief. There is a reason they are called the Federal Communication Commission, and not the Federal Every Limited Resource Potentially Subject to a Tragedy of the Commons Commission.
I always wonder how many people who feel better after giving up bread are dealing with some level of insulin resistance.
Should not you add a 5th option "None of the above" to know the total poll population ? I was looking for such an option, as none of the four statements apply to me.
Isn't this argument basically, "governments are prone to being co-opted by special interests, therefore we should go ahead and give away the farm to Comcast"?
> The original Title II classification which included local loop bundling killed DSL investment

Then why, when reclassified as an information service, did it not get better? It got better from 1999 to 2005 (768kbps -> 1-6Mbps), but only in very select regions has it actually improved beyond that in the past ten years.

I already said this in another thread, it's not about switching databases in one project, but using the same skillset across projects regardless of the database.
They claim to study the "how and why" of soylent usage, but I don't see any data or discussion of the "why". Am I missing something?
Well, I guess there is a need for a single definition of what a "code snob" is.

In OP's example, the singleton is a design pattern, not a coding standard. It should be used if it is applicable to the scenario, as it seem like it was.

Other people here in the comments are talking about "code snobs" as people that like to follow certain coding standards. IMHO, coding standards should be defined by the entire team and everyone has to follow. There is no way to have a consistent code without that, so it is not about being snob, it is about having a consistent codebase.

Now, if there are coding standards or an architecture defined but someone wants to use a different one because they want to be snob about it, then you have a problem. If there is a standard, let's say a naming convention as a simple example, and someone wants to change it at some point, you either have to change everything else to follow the same new standard, or don't start a new standard at all. Otherwise you are not resolving the original issue, you are simply making it worts by having more than one standard in your code base.
What about the pages of redacted portions under the heading of Talking Points? I guess we will need to wait a quarter century or so before we know the answer to that instead of speculating.
I never had any gluten sensitivity issues until I was in my mid 20s. After a few years of really terrible symptoms a friend suggested I cut gluten out of my diet and my symptoms disappeared completely within two days.
The article is not clear on the actual execution step. It is written by Cisco, after all, suggesting that the article is concerned mostly with how the worm spreads itself (with more focus on the command-and-control and networking).
It's possible that it only spreads when it is saved locally and "opened" by the user in an application. It's also possible that it's executed in the browser upon open and/or render.
Since the worm/payload is a DLL and the user-agent making the download requests is Trident, I'm guessing it's a problem with the Windows + IE code, which is likely shared, that renders PNG images.
This isn't legacy IE but a new engine. It's like saying Chrome can't run on Linux because MS said IE can't be separated from Windows. Nonsense, but I get your point ("MS lied back then").
Simply stating a conclusion is not an argument.

I also have a kid with attention issues. We recently did some testing for Celiac which was negative, but he clearly feels better, both in terms of focus and gastrointestinal issues, when he lays off the gluten/wheat. Try it out, worth a shot. Also, it definitely makes it easier when you give it up as a family and, in my experience, pretty much all of the gluten free bread products taste like crap, so find ways to avoid things with bread in general.

Is the community better served by positive responses to creative works, or to nitpicking over trademark infringement by people who are not responsible for either claiming it or enforcing it?
The actual court case you're referring to has to do with the bundling of IE with Windows and how it can't be pulled out. Remember that IE actually used to be cross-platform until version 5 with IE for Mac although it used a different rendering engine (Tasman vs Trident).

Keep in mind that p < 0.05 is actually quite a weak standard, and hard sciences tend to aim for a stronger p < 0.01. The problem with p < 0.05 and p-numbers in general is that current scientific practice allows to get whatever results you want with p < 0.05 by doing various tricks with statistics. Unfortunately this practice of "p-number hacking" is being fought nowhere near as it should be.
Yes, though sometimes in non-obvious ways. For example, cleaning a pan after making pan-sautéed chicken is difficult until you realize you can make a pan sauce and get the pan clean at the same time.

Lessons are broken down into the mise en place steps (which makes preparation simpler). We're working on content now to help with simplifying cleaning, though the general mantra is to clean as you go.

Important metrics for us when creating lessons are number of ingredients required and number of dirty dishes that result. We want you to make things that won't fill a sink with dirty dishes and doesn't require a 30-minute, $100 trip to the grocery store. Satisfying all these requirements are hard and I don't think we've nailed it yet, but it's on our mind constantly.

It's definitely a thing. I know one person that is seriously allergic to corn. She carries several EpiPens because corn is in almost everything and the reaction is pretty severe.

She can't even consume meat from animals that were fed corn. Thankfully grass-fed beef is becoming more common, but chicken and pork are generally off limits.

Its the only actual formal proposal that there has been. Yes, its true that it (based on the outlines provided) it differs substantially from what has been considered in recent weeks and adopted. That's the point of having an advance notice for comments as part of the regulatory process.

OTOH, its also quite common for the subsequent published act after a call for comments on a proposal to be the final decision, even if it differs substantially from the original proposal.
Apple charges me for my iPhone, then takes 30% when someone sells me an app for it. Sony charges me for a PS3, then charges publishers a fee for every copy of every game they release. When your property facilitates a transaction between two parties, it's not "double dipping" to charge a fee to both.
Shitty nutritionally and taste like crap. We've tried all of the breads and other stuff. Now we just eat that burger with a knife and fork.
Good points. Thanks. I guess it's inevitable given the free (as in, subscription free) nature of web content. Heck, even paying a subscription to the NYT doesn't opt you out of seeing their ads, unless you take matters into your own hands with something like AdBlock.

Writing Postgres functions in C is not nearly as scary as it sounds. Here are some stats functions I wrote for a Rails app. The histogram function in particular was the driver, since it was parameterized on bucket size/count/start so uncacheable:

How about both? A comment describing how the name of the product is a violation of GitHub's name and branding usage guidelines does not somehow cancel out other comments.

If everybody wrote the same comment, there would be no point to commenting.
I can't find the reference but my rule of thumb is actually to build for 10x and design for 100x. That is to say if my service is now processing 1k requests/s I'd like the capacity for 10k requests/s and I'd like the existing architecture to be scalable by adding more nodes up to 100k requests/s.
Soylent might think otherwise, but it still seems to be exclusive to the the Silicon Valley/tech sphere. There is a reason this is posted here and we don't see customer surveys about Ensure, Slimfast, Muscle Milk, or whatever similar product you want to compare. I would guess that is the biggest contributing factor to the heavy male split.

EDIT: I dug into the raw data and my original assumption seems to be supported with the age distributions as well. 23% of respondents were younger than 25, 70% were younger than 35, and 88% younger than 45. So the demographics for Soylent are young men with the largest chunk in their 20s.
SSDs are already parallel and I don't think updating the single FTL mapping table is a bottleneck.

Shame, but understandable.
The author is on to something. Flash memory devices can emulate disks, but that's an inefficient way to access them, especially for reading. You have all the overhead of Linux system calls and file systems to, basically, read a RAM-like device that's orders of magnitude faster in access time than a rotating device.

The question is, what non-file abstraction should a flash device offer? Slow persistent RAM? A key/value store? An SQL database? Computing has had "RAM" and "disks" as its storage models for so long that those concepts are nailed into software at a very low level.

The NoSQL crowd could probably find uses for devices that implemented big, fast key/value stores.
Yeah, if you're an ACID person, this approach is going to present conceptual challenges. The propagation delay is a mostly-solved problem, which I know because lots of high-scale sites work. Getting a summary of their design decisions around this would be a huge time-saver, but I don't know of one.

Please re-read the parent comment.

The question is "What did they think they have?"
The opportunity is more in the network than the tech. For something like this to work, you have to convince both site owners and advertisers to use your network. (Not that it's a bad idea, but it's like 97% hussle and 3% tech problem.)
A microservices OO construct by definition would have to do a lot of honking around with the CPU before we got to the "work" part.

No doubt. While I'm enamored with OO myself (having begun my professional life in the late 80s when it was the thing), I think that anything OO would be internal to a given service, and the interfaces between services would be much more conventional, most likely a simply REST approach.
An "error" that only exists in the most tendentious possible reading of the bill isn't evidence of anything other than the intent of the people challenging the ACA.
This is the most important question in this thread (though it was worded confusingly). There was a statistically discernible difference, but what is the magnitude of that difference?

The reddit thread[0] on this paper has a lot of nonsense, but also has people with actual access to the paper. One informative comment (keeping in mind this study was done only on people who already identified as gluten sensitive):

> 31 of the individuals had an equal response to gluten or placebo, a further 13 had no significant difference. 5 individuals had stronger negative effects to placebo, 9 had stronger effects to Gluten. The three mentioned were over 2 standard deviations above the mean, and hence considered to be sensitive.

> There did appear to be a general increase across the board for symptoms, however the one caveat that was reported in results, but not discussed was the fact that individuals report worse symptoms (p=0.009) in the first week of the trial compared to the second.

> There were also no individual symptoms that showed a significant difference between the placebo and gluten. Only when all symptoms were combined as a sum did they have a difference.

Has your child had any genetic testing? Any mutations in A1298C or C677T?
I have some small experience as a study subject. We were given detailed information ahead of time which included what was under study, and whether there would be a placebo group.

I guess the assumption is that since both groups receive the same information any placebo effect would be equalized.
The pain of going to buy ingredients is a big one for people. I just can't personally see myself spending that on much ingredient delivery, though my wife does get some things delivered from a CSA.

I think there are two other pains wrapped up in why people buy from these services: meal planning and instruction. Meal planning is hard and it helps to just treat it like picking from a menu than creating a plan out of thin air. To some degree these services provide some instruction, though I've heard people get instructional benefits from these to varying degrees. Would be curious to see how the instruction has helped you.
yekim, we (working on Google Flights) hear this again and again. AAAAAAAGH! :o

I hope you're enjoying the service, and we'll see what we can do about getting out the word a bit better ;).

IE is still gonna live next door (to be used for enterprise/compat) probably for a while. I don't understand what they are saying about solving incompatibility issues of IE-specific code in Spartan - which is presumably NOT IE.

So you believe web browsers should be tailored to a specific gender? What would a woman-friendly web browser look like? Does it open a thousand URLs before finally picking which one to render?
That's not the same, though; that's you purposefully combining your query (which you can do in LINQ).

LINQ doesn't just combine Wheres. It tries to optimize your query as much as possible and executes lazily, so you aren't actually doing any work until you try to use the resultset (in a ToList, for example).
What exactly is "unethical" about not investing tons of money in something that isn't going to yield the kind of profit your investors want? People act like Verizon and AT&T have a moral obligation to spend money on telecom infrastructure as a public good at minimal price above cost.
