I revisited this thread and thought: How would I go about running these tests and creating awareness for this issue?

A dynamometer would cover the vast majority of what they wanted to show. There was no need to create the danger they created with this vehicle. They really didn't know how the driver would react, "don't freak out" guarantees nothing. A professional driver (like a stunt driver) would have been far more appropriate.

The business about disabling the breaks should have been done a pile of hay bundles or something like that in front of the car.

For exposure they could have contacted any number of TV stations or networks who would have jumped on this immediately.

In all, the choices they made were reckless, stupid, dangerous and potentially criminal. I don't doubt their tech credentials at all. They are tech-smart people, no question about that. However, they have proven, beyond a reasonable doubt, that they are poster children for that stereotype of socially clueless engineers and/or the other stereotype of scientists/engineers who are so into what they are doing that they are completely blind to the idea that they could seriously harm people through their careless actions or inaction.
Really?

I thought they wrote a new rending engine and some other key features?
It's called a Variance, and in my county(Marin county) they are never issued anymore. They used to be issued to "good ole boys", but those days are even over.(I'm glad that's the case. Why should just rich boys, or networked boys get what they want?)

If you are living a commercial zoned space; realize that the government can come into your building(at anytime), slap a red tag on it, and the tenant is out. (My father had an illegial mother in-law unit in his garage(done well, even ADA accessible), wasn't even charging rent.

Well this building inspector found out about it. Knocked on my father's door. My father let him in. The guy told my father he needs to tear out the illegial unit. Well my father being the sensible Irishman, took the Inspector, threw him on the ground, frisked him, and called the Cops. My father had no idea these guys had so much authority. He thought he was being set up for a home invasion? No in reality, he just "lost it". He knew--he was in the Trades. He got mad--it happens to the best of us? Well, since this was years ago, and my father had his best friend(an Oakland cop) come to court; my father got off scott free. White privlege?
(That day, my father realized too much government power is just wrong. I never heard, "They probally got what they deserved!"

While I'm at it; my rich neighbor, decided to build a three bedroom house on his property. Property his parents bought him 40 years ago. He has 20 acres? It was right after the 2008 crash. He needed rental income to live his lavish lifestyle. He thought he was a Titan, and "More people should get creative in down economies?"

He got all the permits. He spend $850,000 building the place. It was ready to rent! His first renter told him he would gladly move his family in, but there's rent control in detached homes. He could only rent to people at or below the federal poverty level, and rent was tied to this metric in some way? Instead of getting $5000/month---he could only rent it out for around $800. He was floored! Beyond angry. It's still just sitting there. (This is the only rent control we have in Marin County. I'm still a fan of some form of rent control though.) He told his mother she could live in the detached house for free. She said, 'I bought you your mansion, those fancy cars, antiques, and for all your stupid failed businesses(Businesses that kept him thinking he was completely self made? No one helped me out? A real Horato Alger's; I'll sleep in the mansion, and you sleep in the detached house!' Love that mom! Really, she set this dude up for life, why shouldn't she expect to sleep in the mansion?
(I don't care if your parents made you wealthy, but admit it, and help needy family members? I've only know a few rich boys who weren't in denial--George Sorrows comes to mind. He frequently states, 'My wealth is completely due to my father's generosity, and connections! He's an interesting man. He's also an author. He believes his wealth prevents people from taking his writing seriously. He might be right?)

Cheers! (Make sure you are not overpaying rent. I know dudes who don't tell tenants about rent control. They wait until the tenant figures it out.)

And governance. The additional cost of trying to live in a city (Detroit, Baltimore, ...) that is poorly governed is quite high. Most suburbs haven't had the time to become as poorly governed as the cities, so associated costs tend to be lower.
The point I'm making is that use of the term by non-black people may be a useful part of dismantling the apparatus of racism.
If you have a mobile app I would highly suggest a small Facebook ad budget for cost per install ads. Make a list of all of the potential interests your prospects have them target them individually. Think of it as an investment in market research rather than pure acquisition. Treat those customers great, ask for referrals and testimonies. Find what they love about your app and focus your landing page on that.

Spend some time reading Moz.org blogs.

And treat it like a job. These things don't just happen, they take consistent input with often limited feedback. Good luck!
You are correct. The patch is meant for IT security research and honeypots. The purpose is to see what passwords the SSH brute-force bots are using. It should not be used on production systems where legit users are logging in via SSH. That would be unethical and possibly criminal (depending on location).

Also, with SSH, I use keys, not passwords. I encourage others to do that as well. You could have this patch on a honeypot and by using a SSH key, your account password would not be in play.
Thanks a bunch! Yes, I had a feeling this was possible, but they are very hesitant to simply wire money across the border to an individual, because it might look like money laundering (!)
the mind is the most powerful thing known to man. even with a disorder strong minded people have worked their way through and came back to being productive and happy members of society. alcoholism is considered a disease but people get through it with will power alone.
"Stereotype threat and feelings of isolation are huge obstacles many students of color face in my major"

Have you ever thought you might just look lost and people are trying to help out? Why do you immediately think everyone is somehow racist by asking you this question?

"Too often, however, this means that by week six in the ten week quarter system, the class enrollment makeup drops dramatically from being optimistically diverse to being exclusively male, white and Asian."

It's because the classes are difficult. I took these classes when I went to school and if you don't really know your stuff, you will fail.

I don't know the person that wrote the article, but it seems she wants to be taken seriously immediately. Nobody gets taken seriously immediately, even if you are white or asian. Everyone has to put the work in.

"I can put that power to good use by creating more spaces for minorities in technology to thrive and feel welcome"

Why don't you just say African-american students. Asians and Hispanics are also minorities.

When I went to school, I had many African-american students that were my classmates. As the classes went from 100 level to 300 level and above (major-level and weeder classes), many dropped out.

They were never treated any differently in class. We also need to remember that many universities have quotas for minorities and give extra points on the SAT for just checking a box.

This however, does not guarantee that a person has the knowledge to actually pass the classes once they get in.
I prefer caniuse.com too.

The bit about Edge just being IE without the legacy baggage is incorrect. You can see the new standards and APIs they've either added or are adding here: http://dev.modern.ie/platform/status/?filter=f06000000

The thing I'm happiest about is the user-agent change so poorly written JavaScript / CSS that was written for webkit instead of standards will now magically start working.

looks like an interesting project. we have literally hundreds of thousands of acres of labor intensive agriculture(fruit trees) around where i live and this is a big problem to solve. congrats!

have you reached out to companies like stemilt at all? or just growing organically for now?
I guess you're right. I'll just remove that one paragraph. If you are at a doctor you are more than welcome to weigh in on the 2 opinions I had at 10 after being bullied for 3 years. I might not be able to remember all the terminology, but I do remember not being able to get out of it. I do remember not being able to have more than 1 friend up until I was 20. I do remember drinking myself into a pit at 22 (2 six packs a night, alone for a year, sound healthy?). I do remember digging myself out of it, alone, without help. Because for some reason I can't explain I started believing that I could. I am now happy. The only thing I have left is excruciating existential anxiety, can I beat that too? Fuck yeah.

Bunch of hooey, though.

I can tell you one thing: OP isn't going to win by believing it's impossible because even the best meds only provide symptomatic relief. They don't fix the underlying problem. It's like giving a short person a mirror that makes them look taller. Meds can help you win, meds are good. I would never recommend someone to avoid them. All irrelevant: OP indicated depression is not an illness in his country. He/she supposedly can't see a doctor. No meds. All that's left is will power.

Knowing someone else did it makes all the difference.

Finally, as an expert on the matter, where is your advice? Or are you here tear OP down? I know OP can do it, all you know is what a major depressive disorder is.
>They just can't afford to raise a family as easily as their parents and grandparents could, so many choose not to, not because they legitimately have no interest but because they don't see the numbers adding up.

That's the conventional wisdom, but I don't buy it. Raising a family was always tough - when I was young my parents scrimped and saved in a way that I've never seen among millennials. Everybody did, and it was considered just part of parenthood, especially in the beginning.

It's not that younger people can't raise a family as easily as their parents and grandparents, it's that either they don't realize how tough it was back then or they're just not interested in making the same sacrifices.

>On top of that, it's often no more expensive to rent a small apartment in the city vs. a large house in a suburb. And that large house with its tiring commute is just a burden to someone without kids.

Sure, but it's far cheaper to rent a small apartment in the suburbs and commute than it is to rent in the city.

Yes, commuting sucks. But it sucked in the 20th century as well. My dad spent more than an hour on the road each way. Every day. That't the kind of sacrifice I'm talking about. In addition to the commute my dad brown bagged his lunch every day, made his own coffee (Folgers), drank PBR non-ironically, did his own plumbing, painted what needed painting, mowed his own lawn, and fixed the family car himself when it broke down. If you live that kind of lifestyle today you can afford a family in the same way my parents did.

I'm not making a moral judgement on the other peoples' procreation choices. All I'm saying is family was a priority for previous generations in a way that it isn't today. It was part of being an adult.
Well if you have no choice then you don’t have a choice :)

It is still a very good idea to save as absolutely as much as you can until you know you want to stay.
Ty for the share.

> The evidence for exercise as a treatment for depression is weak at best.

That's what the link you give says...

> You should probably not recommend exercise as a treatment for depression.

But it doesn't say that.

It does say "When compared to psychological or pharmacological therapies, exercise appears to be no more effective, though this conclusion is based on a few small trials.", in which case, can anything be recommended?

The NHS still recommends exercise for treating depression, at least in some cases: http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/stress-anxiety-depression/pages... & http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Depression/Pages/Treatment.aspx
That is probably on a CI server. During development, I'd probably be running way more than that, at every production or test line written, having a task that watches for file changes and re-runs all tests. Then, having a fast test suite is key.

While speeding up the process is always good, tools like lucifer or spork are only masking the problem: loading the whole environment for unit-level tests. Sails, like Rails, promote tight coupling between all parts of the system, which harms test speed, thus harming another development tool: TDD.

The more decoupled and isolated you write your business logic, the easier and faster it is to test drive it. Then you simply plug an HTTP interface (with routes and whatnot) that calls into your core.
And I can pretty much guarantee you that people in London and New York bitch about their public transportation systems all the time. Maybe people in Singapore don't but they're probably a pretty rare exception. And don't get even think about getting residents of Boston started on the performance of the MBTA and commuter rail last winter--and that's one of the better US public transit systems.

I like cities with good public transit systems but they're not nirvana. And for cities that are just so-so, like SF, the people I know there who don't own cars use Uber, Zipcar, and conventional rentals plenty.
Since 2010, population growth has either restarted in many cities that lost inhabitants for decades, or has accelerated for cities that never stopped growing. New York, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, D.C., Minneapolis, Miami, Philadelphia, Denver, and Chicago have all experienced this phenomenon, not to mention others, I'm sure. It's a huge trend.
Wait, but the thing that you wouldn't use 916 days ago was released as open source a while ago. How is your "I won't use your products because they are just binary blobs and I demand source" vindicated by Google acquiring Pixate after that?
I seem to have been misunderstood due to the bluntness of my reply. But even your article admits that these people exist in the opening paragraphs.

>So many disputes in our liberal democratic society hinge on the tension between inequality and fairness: between groups, between sexes, between individuals, and increasingly between families.

The power of the family to tilt equality hasn’t gone unnoticed, and academics and public commentators have been blowing the whistle for some time

My bad for selecting a shitty source - I pay absolutely no attention to the political slants of different news agencies - but my point stands: people are making these arguments. They will argue for "equality" by dragging anyone above them down to their level: the LCD.

I can easily see how my parent post could be misconstrued as arguing Swift is making this argument. My argument is that he is investigating this issue largely because people exist that are making these arguments.
The 1000X number should only be attached to "cheaper", and comes from in vivo and in vitro validation experiments we have done; our drug hit rate was almost 1000X higher than high-throughput screens from the literature, and our total spend to get to our one drug lead was almost that many times cheaper than what we learned that pharma spends. We think we are faster as well (our first proof-of-concept study took about 9 months, which is faster but definitely not 1000X as fast), but I think the most important thing is to find something that actually works to treat patients. That's what we want to prove out with backing from YC.
EDIT......

As suggested, here it is....

Blog at FAVORTEXT.com. I've used Wordpress to generate this blog. It looks weird and things are out of place, but I will tackle this bit by bit as time goes on. This is where I will jot down my journey on learning coding, business development and going from an idea to an MVP prototype.

I wish everyone here who took the time to respond a glorious and wonderful life.
I disagree. With the new funds coming in, improvements are being done on the metro constantly, they seem to be rebuilding tracks every weekend. On top of that, the new 7000 series train cars are a BIG step up from the old ones. I had a chance to ride in one the other day, and it addressed many of he problems of the older cars. Once the roll out of the 7000-series cars is complete and they take the old cars offline, there should be a big reduction in the amount of delays (which are mostly due to cars having issues).
I hate using git too! But I admit it does have the property of working well, even though it's a giant pain in the ass.
Sure, you shouldn't rush to get medicated, but you should be open to medication as an option. I believe depression is often chemically caused, and if you've tried healthy living, meditation, etc., there are many good, relatively benign, well tested medical options out there.
Heh. I noticed a blistering two guess per second hacking attempt against my laptop because the fan went full jet engine.
Needs more vertical farms.

It reminds me a bit too much of the drake equation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_equation

or maybe more appropriately this form of the drake equation:

How these are so closely correlated eludes me but maybe the reference papers will expand on this.

Having said all of that, the section 5 Factors unique to bitcoin is pretty good. And considering the lack of literature on how to trade bitcoin it's nice to see someone take the time to try and apply some rigor to the subject.

Hat's off to the author.

I haven't spend much time looking at it but the time I have spent show that it does trade differently from a typical currency.

Sadly the Trading Bitcoin section doesn't contain alot of actionable code or information but that hardly makes it unique in the world of trading.
1. Get medicated.

12. Never do drugs. This just amplifies your problems.

Your points #1 and #12 are a nice big contradiction.

Anti-depression drugs in particualr tend to have rather significant side-effects, which can last for a decade after you've stopped taking the drug.

Going to drugs to help against depression should be a plan C kind of a thing. Changing your environment and activities should be well tested before that.

Who cares about a "movement"? This reminds me of the hashtags #Together4Her when somebody shares a tweet about a young woman with cancer, or a woman attacked by thugs, etc. What _exactly_ will 50k tweets with this hashtag do to make this woman feel better?

Similarly, what would a "movement" achieve? Would 50k people make a public announcement of their salaries, risking immediate lay off due to breaking their promise for silence on the matter when they have signed their labor contract?

No? Then what is this post even about? Click-bait for more page hits?

The Spartan rendering engine (edgehtml.dll) is a new component and separate from Trident (mshtml.dll). The new engine began as a fork of Trident, but has since diverged rapidly over the past many months, similar to how several other browser engines have started as forks prior to diverging. The new rendering engine is also being built with a very different set of principles than Trident - for example: a focus on interoperability and the removal of document modes. - MS statement
Having spent a long time on medication for depression in the past, I can verify this. There's a lot you can do to help yourself before trying medication. Exercise and learning to manage your emotions are a great place to start and can help a lot more than most people think. It definitely has a time and place, but the side effects can be a lot more drastic (and sometimes detrimental) than a lot of people expect.
> Sadly I live in a 3rd world country, where mental illness is not an illness. I can get little help from people. Our healthcare system simply doesn't work at all

My first suggestion would be to try and find professional help there, even if it's difficult. Did you search? Even if the healthcare system is bad, this doesn't mean that there are no good psychologists at all. If you've got nobody to ask, you can search for a professional association or for a college where clinical psychology is taught, and start from there.
It' more complicated. The electrons are waves in a quantized field, so the math is more complicated. When you try to simplify the math, with some simplifications you get something that looks like a classical particle and with other simplifications you get something that looks like a classical wave. So in some experiments you get electrons that behave like a particle and in some experiments you get electrons that behave like a wave.

Anyway, it's difficult to say what a real particle is. The easiest example is the Z0 particle, because you can think it is a mix of the W0 particles with the B0 particles, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W_and_Z_bosons#Z_bosons

Anyway, if we "agree" that a real particle is something that can travel in vacuum, then the electrons are real and the particles in this experiment are not real. But if you talk with the people in solid state physics, they are totally convinced that phonons are real particles in spite they can travel only inside a solid.
