Thanks for that further qualification.

I think that, via my friend's commentary and links and whatnot, I've encountered a fair amount of:

If treatment is delayed too long, there are lingering symptoms that are difficult to treat.

Nonetheless, the experiences do seem to present a nightmare that includes fighting incorrect diagnosis and lack of support, including from insurance.

I didn't read the full OP article, but I heard a fair fraction of the same subject's interview on "The People's Pharmacy", this past weekend. He is a doctor, and still he went through years of misdiagnosis and chronic, horrible symptoms.

I'm also mindful that while people including the medical community are now becoming more cognizant of Lyme disease and its details, for years this was not the case.

Finally, I guess we should note that, between this article, the interview I mention, the book he's written... this also represents a PR push surrounding the book.

P.S. I guess I can add that I have a family member who acquired a parasitic infection (not Lyme disease) abroad that was not properly diagnosed and treated for 3+ years. (Despite extensive attempt to find an effective diagnosis and treatment including some very prominent clinics.)

The correct treatment, once administered, immediately knocked out the parasite. However, so much damage had been done by it in the meantime that recovery proved to be very long and ultimately incomplete.

This anecdote doesn't make me any righter about Lyme disease, and certainly IANAD. But I have, second hand, experienced something similar with regard to such... "runaround".
Well, if my company caught the attention of AWS engineers, I would be way more defensive than optimistic.
A-ha, I missed that distinction.
Haven't tried it, but does it crash the browser or the tab? Under Chrome's architecture, a page should potentially be able to crash the tab, but not the browser. (or that's my understanding of it, anyway)
or if you learn emacs you have emacs shortcuts by default in shells.

which goes against his childish comment on emacs:

That's the problem. Either do it for all or don't do it. It's not as if English does not have the words or English pronunciation for all these places.

I don't see many Italians who speak some English saying 'I come from Roma. They say Rome. On they other hand you have people who will say OOrooguay instead of the English Yourugwye. Maybe it's more a Latin American thing, not sure. At least it seems pretty prevalent. Maybe psychologically it has to do with the slightly anti-american disposition of many of the politicians down there. Lot's of them trot out the old "imperialists" trope when it's convenient. so maybe it's a kind of psychologically subversive thing.

I remember someone saying, well that's the name of my country in spanish, so that's why I say it that way --something along those lines. As if saying it with the english pronunciation took something away from their country being whole. Or maybe that was just a one off weird person.

One benefit of this to founders is that a M&A deal provides instant liquidity (barring earn outs), whereas an IPO largely prohibits you from selling off a large percentage of your stock.

You're not stupid, it's just that some of the most intelligent people in the world have been drawn to the subject, most of which is actually quite new (consider that the atom was really only discovered in the 20th century!). The chains of inference are brilliant, and the amazing thing is how teachers treat the subject as a mundane set of tools to get through problem sets (not that David Morin does this).

There's this air of understanding that isn't justified. As Feynman famously pointed out, forget about not understanding quantum mechanics - no-one really understands Maxwell's equations because to do so would be to somehow have an intuition for a function that maps each point in a volume of space to 6 numbers (the 3 components of the E and B vectors at each point). This intuition is impossible in the general case, but we fool ourselves into thinking we have that intuition because the pedagogy focuses on special cases.

Anyway, don't be too hard on yourself. You are walking in the footsteps of some of the greatest minds in human history, and even though they've cleared a path, the going is still rather steep.
You certainly can ship non-free software and free software together, in the general case. I was, of course, talking about the context of the parent comment, which was about (non-free) software that, as a fundamental part of its operation, use free software via a well-defined non-link-time interface. Such as, for example, a GUI text-search tool that, to do its fundamental work, shells out to gnu grep.

My understanding is that the relevant part of the GPLv2 is (with emphasis mine):

"If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it."

I honestly agree it's pretty explicit, but disagree with you about what it says.

IANAL, but I have heard the analysis I gave from two independent sources, one of whom is a lawyer specializing in IP law, and the other of whom used to work with the FSF on policy issues.

As I say, my understanding (given to me by the aforementioned lawyer) is that this has not been tested in court.
Anecdotally, I not met a single person in my academic or professional career that found Physics 'easy.' I was good in the subject and still found that the problems could still be quite challenging.

My suspicion is that Einstein and Feynman both struggled at times with the basics...
This won't work because LC_ALL overrides LC_COLLATE (and all the LC_* variables actually). It's LANG that you want to use. LANG is overriden by LC_* which are in turn overriden by LC_ALL. Don't use LC_ALL in your config files, use it only for one shot command lines or in scripts that need to be sure of the environment they run in.
I much prefer emacs and at least emacs shortcuts are by default in most shell (and everywhere in osx!) but no, every servers I install (debian, ubuntu, osx...) comes with vi but not emacs.

I think there's simply not enough in the catalog that's more plausible than what they're suggesting.
If you attempt to reduce an extremely complex system of incidental traumas, re-enforcements, psycho-social effects and a multitude of many other factors down to "there was a death in the family" or "my father hit me once" then I would totally agree with you, that has been thoroughly debunked. There are healthy people whose fathers hit them, or have had deaths in their families, this is absolutely true. However, you do your mind (and yourself, obviously) an extreme disservice if you think of its mechanics in such simple terms (especially if you suffer from depression.)

It's like troubleshooting a computer by attempting to discern its vague history and comparing it to other computers, and then deciding that it's a hardware problem because some computers have similar software and function okay. Any computer technician can tell you that modern PCs are way too complex to repair using such simple logic (unless you just start formatting drives.) Now, there may indeed be a hardware problem, but you can't discount the OS based on a three-point checklist.

I grew up in a family with an extremely negative view of people who had mental health problems, and when I came down with depression I ran to fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, etc. because I didn't want to be "crazy". But all I did was set myself up for worse problems down the road when that rationalisation wore thin. Now, I'm not saying that taking an emotion-centred approach will solve all of your problems and make your depression go away -- it probably won't. But it will help you cope. Numerous studies show that it helps people cope. How could that be, if your thoughts didn't matter?

There's no logical reason not to tax investors. They aren't unique butterflies that make the economy flourish. Investment is just one component of a functioning economy. So is education, saving, consumption, etc. Too much focus on one is not a good thing. This is one of the reasons we have so many investor bubbles. Also, the wealthy have no other options than to invest their money. What else would they do with it, put it under their mattress? The ROI is the only incentive they need. All this does is increase income inequality.
I remember wanting an evolution keyboard mounted up to an aeron so badly back in the day but sadly I discovered them a year after they were discontinued. http://deskthority.net/photos-f62/ergonomic-keyboard-parade-...

I'm swapping between ergodox, kinesis advantage, and type matrix these days but always keeping my eye out for a better solution. Honestly the best thing I have found is a different keyboard, so these days I just keep cycling through them every few months.

I'm talking about handler duration, doesn't include network latency. If you use lambda you can look at the durations in the logs... a trivial go handler often gets ~5ms if you're using good hardware (but sometimes jumps up to ~100ms)
Thinking about individual computers will lead you astray. There are, rather, sets of machines (from single boxes to entire data-centers) that are managed by a given sysadmin staff. The more machines they manage, the more likely it is that problems will have institutionalized and operationalized solutions.

A cloud is just a sysadmin staff with a Sufficiently Large Deployment to have ironed out all the kinks in their hardware.
The speed of light is 300 Mm/s, not 300 Km/s.
The disaster is that app developers can't rely on their users being on the internet in the sense of end-to-end addressability in developing new applications. This has major chilling effects on less centralised types of applications, and tilts the tables toward big content providers and "enterprise" users with "intranets" behind centralized firewalls.

IPv6 deployment is massively late, users have already been conditioned into accepting NAT as internet access, even going so far as NAT boxes being called "routers"- even though NAT flatly contradicts the RFC definition of IP router, which are forbidden from doing port/address NAT along with other arbitrary traffic interference.
well they are a "password" company. Nothing surprising here.

All sorts of high-quality stationery are becoming impossible to find. I used to love poking around real stationery stores as a kid. Today's "warehouse" stores are a lot less fun that a real stationer. For people who don't know, a real stationer would have 10x the number of SKUs that Staples and Office Depot carry.

- Elastic bands from almost any store today are now a synthetic beige or grayish-tan material that is much less springy than pure rubber, and it rots leaving a sticky residue in less than a year. A real stationer used to have dozens of shapes and sizes of elastics, not 3 or 4 choices you have now.

- A high quality manual stapler is really hard to find. I haven't found any equal to my Apsco 2002 stapler which is no longer made. Everything I tried jams more often.

- If you want to put an envelope snugly inside a slightly larger envelope -- for example, to enclose a reply envelope -- good luck finding that in any brick-and-mortar store today. You'll have to order it.

Those huge arts and crafts stores like Michaels do have an overlap with what a real stationer used to be, but it's not a superset.

I've noticed some differences by country too: Compared to the US, good quality stationery is very hard to find in Brazil (even in rich neighborhoods)[1]. Generally in brick-and-mortar stores in Western Europe, you find high-quality stationery more easily than in the US warehouse stores. I've never been to Japan, so I'm curious to know what it's like there.

The conspiracy theorist answer is that they have some kind of dirt on Obama and/or he’s been promised future earnings if he plays along, and he’s now a puppet of the spooks. (The future earnings thing isn’t even all that far-fetched, considering how well plenty of other ex–public servants from both parties are doing in industry these days.)

The more likely/charitable story is some combination of: (a) the weight of being President and access to various confidential information and continuous exposure to a group of intelligence officials’ beliefs caused him to feel that the surveillance &c. is necessary, or (b) pragmatically as a political matter, especially to keep campaign contributions flowing in for future Democratic politicians, Obama thought it necessary to at least partly sell out to the so-called military-industrial complex, possibly in exchange for political support on other issues.

One way or another, it is pretty disappointing how far some of his actions on torture, surveillance, etc. have been from his campaign promises.
I wonder if SSHFP records on Avahi/mDNS would work?
I don't like to think about the spirit/mind/brain being "broken" in case of depression. Depression causes problems, but often the only way to get rid of the cause is to alleviate the problems.

Everybody, including those described to be mentally healthy, can and should improve and evolve their mind, and CBT can be effective for that.
> And I do not. Do you feel that cURLing a URL violates this implicit contract?

Depending on the site, yes.

> It depends on what this "preamble" is. If it's just text at the top of the page saying "the reader hereby agrees to also view the ads on this page," then no, I don't consider that an explicit contract.

How is it any different than someone on the street offering a free book if you read their short pamphlet beforehand? Is it any different if it's a sign that says it instead of a person? In both cases, I view taking the book while not reading the pamphlet stealing. You were only granted a copy of the book if you performed an action, and in both cases you failed to carry out the action, so a book was not granted. Thus the taking of the book was stealing.

> I don't think intent is relevant in this case, because I do not believe there is anything resembling a contract.

And that is the fundamental difference in our points of view. I believe there is an expectation on the part of the content providers for what they are providing, and as long as the consumer understands this expectation and purposefully ignores it, they are acting dishonestly.

Oh, I know why it's called what it's called.

Lumping patent and copyright issues under the "Intellectual Property" umbrella harmed productive non-wonky discussion of the issues. I expect that lumping DRM'd and unencumbered video playback under the same umbrella will be similarly damaging to non-wonky discourse.
I didn't say that thoughts don't matter. I'm not sure if you're aware that I strongly advocate for CBT.

But CBT doesn't aim to uncover emotional trauma. You talk about an emotion that is causing you distress; the hot thought that's associated with that thought; and then evidence for that.
I would argue it's not childish and is a strong point considering emacs is not typically installed by default. Vim isn't usually installed by default either, gotta go with good ol' vi, unless your distro maintainers are nice and symlink vim to vi for you until you install vim.
You should always have two different locks anyway.
Encryption is as good as it's independent proofs. Even then, the proofs are only as good as the attention it gets from qualified, quality cryptographers. And again, only when used in a library that can independently prove it's algorithm and implementation is sound - open source.

I'm as keen to see memory safe systems languages become commonplace as anyone but some 90% of our stack is C - Linux, MySQL, Git, MRI, nginx, haproxy, memcached, redis, and many other internal components that we'll be talking about on the engineering blog soon. We like C. We're going to need a few more years of research, real production experience, and language/library maturity before betting critical infrastructure on something else by default.

These are two different bugs. The first one does not check to see if it is running in a namespace before mounting the filesystems, which means a user can become "root" and then create the proper overlay filesystems and play the proper file shell games to become actual root. The second one is that it doesn't check permissions for directories, allowing a user to take a peek into places they shouldn't be allowed to peek into, leaking information about places they shouldn't be able to look into.

If something similar happens to you on "cloud" infrastructure, you're very limited in what you can do to diagnose or work-around the problem.

At a place I used to work at we had a reasonably large cluster of Windows boxes on Amazon. Randomly, Windows machines on Amazon would suddenly stop accepting new TCP connections.

This means that machines would be running fine, and then half your cluster starts dropping offline. At the time when this happened to us, there were no other reports we could find of this happening.

Turns out, it's some bug in the Xen Virtual NIC driver that wasn't running the offloaded TCP cleanup, and so eventually the system couldn't accept any new connections.
Once we figured out was happening we could pre-emptively reboot boxes, but that was a problem for us for about 6 months iirc.

There's probably dozens of these bugs affecting someone on these cloud platforms at any one time. But because you have no access to the hardware, you don't even have the option of saying "Screw it, lets just get different hardware". You're at the mercy of your cloud provider.
Matters of fact (even if wrong) can be linked together into a web of evidence and assumptions and would serve at least to illustrate what we know and don't know.
Just a little deduction for a moment.. if it was a bug in his pacemaker, don't you think he'd call it out in the article?

Yeah. The founder of one of our vendors sold his company for eight figures recently. His only obligation after the sale was to stay on for six months (at an exorbitant salary) while the management structure was integrated into the new parent company.

Seems like an IPO is riddled with all sorts of waiting periods and notifications and paperwork people will want to sue you over if they lose money. I'd definitely go the buyout route if the price was right.

It is a move to reduce trust in a market where trust is the single most important aspect. Schneier's article is all about whom he trust, why he trust them, and conclusion he makes based on that trust.

If you bought a security product and the developer of it describes its strength as "No comment", would you trust it? Personally I am sticking with the abandoned TrueCrypt until a successful fork has been created or luks + dmcrypt has been ported to windows.
