I'll go level my cooking on my main in the meantime, so we have fish feasts. And today, thanks to donations from Eshu (Prezbo) and Flambé (Thauma) we got 2 new Tabs. The Layout is as follows: 1st Tab: Consumables (that includes raiding consumables, as well as low level consumables, and raiding-level enchant mats.) 2nd Tab: Profession mats (obviously mostly low level farmables that you don't have a use for.) Elementals, cloth, leather, herbs, ore, whatever you have left over from levelling and you feel generous enough to donate. 3rd Tab: Prezbo's Hedge Fund Unfortunately just \"The Hegde Fund\" because Blizz' interface sucks. Well, put in all the rest. Bags/Librams/Gear, etc. Read the tab texts for more info. Oh, and before I forget it: If you're using stuff like ArkInventory or Bagnon or Onebag, or whatever, can you please tell it to leave the guild bank layout alone? Since we can't force everyone to use the same addon, and since stuff gets so chaotic after a while, I'd like to keep everything orderly according to the default Blizz interface. (Yes it sucks, but it's the only thing we got.) The idea is: I don't wanna mouse over all the damn recipes in the professions tab to find out if they're alchemy recipes (which they probably aren't.) So just bunch up stuff in a common sense way, and we should be fine.

It was mentioned [in a recent comment that creationists commonly make the claim that little changes occur, but that these all occur within their \"kind\". Sometimes kind is replaced with \"baramin\", but you get the idea. There is a Dog \"kind\", and all the dog breeds - no matter how different they look - still dogs. A smart(ish) creationist might use it as an example of allele frequency variation (or even mutation), without a single speciation event.

I don't have a comeback for \"A corgi and a great bernard are the same species, so why can't Eohippus and modern horses be the same species?\" There is no way that we can test if modern horses could breed with Eohippus, so we end up with this \"what if?\".

I understand the welfare state argument: that our economy can't handle paying massive entitlements to the huddled masses. I can understand how a libertarian could oppose open borders or amnesty on this basis. But, I don't understand how this applies to SB 1070, or other laws which use force to catch undocumented immigrants and eject them from the country. Undocumented immigrants aren't eligible]( for social security, medicaid, medicare, unemployment, food stamps, or any welfare programs, in any states. The only entitlement undocumented immigrants get is free education for their children. Immigrants also do pay taxes, directly and indirectly, that support these programs -- sales taxes, payroll taxes, property tax (via increased rent), etc. And FWIW, IRS requires undocumented immigrants to [pay federal income tax and many comply. Admittedly, it's impossible to know which immigrants are or are not paying their \"fair share\", but this is certain -- undocumented immigrants are not sucking entitlements out of the system, and haven't been since the 1996 welfare reforms. So, how is possible then for libertarians to support SB 1070? How could someone who believes in liberty support further militarizing our southern border, or giving police the power to ask \"do you have your papers?\" For those whose sole concern with immigration is the entitlement effect, wouldn't the logical position be to oppose amnesty or open borders, but to be willing to leave \"well enough alone\" for those that are coming here and staying undocumented? It seems to me that the only reasons to support SB 1070 are xenophobia or nativism. But what am I missing?

I answered the question, and I'm just too impatient and I'd like to know if I was correct now. Here's the question: A sphere of radius *a* and a total charge Q has a non-uniform volume charge density *p = c (a - r)*, where *c* is a positive constant, *r* is the radial distance from the center of the sphere and 0 < *r* < *a*. What percentage of the total charge is located in the region 0 < *r* < *a*/2? At first I was stumped, but I managed to find a solution. Obviously, the percentage will be the amount of charge Q inside the radius *a*/2 divided by the total charge Q over the whole sphere. So I simply took the integral of Q from 0-a/2 and divided that by the integral of Q from 0-a. The formula for Q being Q=*p*V where *p=c(a-r).* Thus the integral was *int [(c)(a-r)(4/3)(pi)(r^3) dr]*. My answer reduced to 18.7%, which I suppose makes sense considering that even though there are several variables that are not defined, the ratio of Q will remain unchanged no matter their value. However, if you look at the density formula p=c(a-r), the density should be greatest near the center and the least at the edges, which would mean the majority of charge value should be located closer to the center of the circle, and not a relatively small 18.7% as my answer suggests... hmmmm.

Many thought the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad would fall quickly — another domino in the Arab Spring — and that Syrian refugees would be able to cross back over the border and return home swiftly. With the Syrian war now in its seventh year, Turkey has opened a path to Syrians for official employment. But few have taken it. One of the government's motives in trying to regularize Syrians is that Turks have been worried about having their wages undercut. \"There was a public concern that Turkish people would be unemployed because of the Syrians being employed with lower fees [wages],\" says labor lawyer Mehmet Ata Sarikaripoglu. \"We see what happened in Europe, and how the politics in Europe has changed after that.\" Fearing a political backlash, Turkey started a program in January 2016 to increase work permits for refugees. The government also now requires companies to give Syrians the same pay and benefits as Turks. But the roll-out has been slow. Integrating Syrians is political too. They tend to be more religious and conservative than many Turks — and they tend to support Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He's floated the idea of offering them Turkish citizenship, but that has prompted a backlash from some opposition parties and more secular Turks. At an Istanbul municipal office, long lines of Syrians snake across the lobby. People are registering for Turkish ID cards and health care, and signing up their children for public schools — all services they get for free as refugees. One man yells and shakes with frustration. He says bureaucrats keep telling him to come back tomorrow. Turkey's social services are overloaded with newcomers like himself, he says. Behind the lobby's front desk, Yahiya Osman helps Syrians register for ID cards and health care. He's a Syrian refugee himself, and has worked here for four years — even though he only got a work permit two weeks ago. \"It makes me eligible for private health insurance, a pension and worker's compensation,\" says Osman, 33. \"You've got to think ahead. We're not sure what's going to happen in Syria. We might have to stay here in Turkey forever.\" But Turkish government statistics show out of the 3 million Syrians here, fewer than 14,000 had work permits by January — a year into the program. \"It's a very exhausting procedure,\" says Sule Akarsu, who manages a charity that teaches Syrian refugees", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I took a \"Theory of Human Uniqueness\" class at my university. The theory states that the most unique human ability is our elite throwing skill. No other animal can throw an object as well as a human. Our big brains, our ability to cooperate with the non-kin, our ability to afford to take years to bring up our young are all the outcome of our elite ability to throw. The name of my professor was Paul M. Bingham and this is his theory: #Human_evolutionary_biology \"He has developed the theory further in a self-published book, Death from a Distance and the Birth of a Humane Universe (BookSurge, 2009). This work builds on W.D. Hamilton’s theory of kin selection (Benefit x Relatedness > Cost) and posits that the Homo genus evolved when an ancestral organism developed the ability to effectively manage non-kin conflicts of interests by lowering the cost of coercion between non-kin individuals (Benefit > Cost of Coercion + Cost of Cooperation). ... According to his theory, the cost of coercing a cheating individual in a cooperative effort, otherwise known as the free-rider problem, was lowered when a precursor species to modern humans developed a way to threaten adult con-specifics from a distance by evolving the ability to throw. This diffused the risk to the predator formulated by Lanchester's Square Law. It proposes that we evolved the ability to repel predators and scavenge their kills in the African savannah. This was later adapted as threat projection towards free-riding con-specifics in non kin cooperative groups.\" I can't really summarize a semester's worth of information in this post.

There, you came face to face with your teammates again: \"wtf medic. r u retarded\" \"hey medic, how about popping the uber BEFORE i die.\" \"yeah i saw that shit. this guy's a fucking griefer.\" Maybe I'm getting a little overdramatic here, but it's difficult to put into words which part of that situation leaves me feeling the most frustrated: bad luck on my end, or teammates that seem to have no appreciation for the fact that you're trying to help them out. Maybe it's a misunderstanding that could be remedied if I used a headset and could verbally say \"whoops, bad timing. sorry dude.\" But once the damage is done, no amount of arguing or explaining seems to make anyone feel better. I say, if there's a solid uber push and you win the point/win the round, drop a \"thanks med\" into the chat even if it wasn't you getting the charge. And if shit goes south and doesn't work out, don't take your frustration out on the class that's busting their ass to keep the team alive. If they're a newbie med and don't have a clue, that'll be obvious before you go in for a push, and you shouldn't be relying on them in the first place. Normally, I shrug this kinda stuff off, but this time it really got to me and I had to let it out. Anyone else have similar experiences to share? **tl;dr** - don't bash the medic, even if they do something that looks completely useless. there's usually another side to the story.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 464, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

So why do we invest so much time and electrons into it? It's the same sort of thing as Nietzsche's saying that there are no objective truths: then, this very statement is not an objective truth. either it's a self-defeating statement. It's basically the same pattern when the Cretan man says all Cretans are liars. A self-defeating or rather \"self-meaninglessing\" statement. Do you get what I mean, don't you?

Some of the functions that would move over now are housed in buildings slated to be taken offline by the university. As proposed to the SBHE, the renovations would be funded by $1.3 million in extraordinary repair funding and $2 million in appropriated funds. An SBHE summary of the university's proposal states UND indicated there is a \"high probability\" that digital classrooms will be built while the renovations are taking place. The summary states the board would not consider approval of additional classroom space until prior approval of the university's strategic plan, along with the portion of a master plan which identifies facility needs for programming. The request from UND was heard Tuesday by the board's budget and finance committee. North Dakota University System communications director Billie Jo Lorius said the committee has asked UND for additional information.

The phosphoric acid (H3PO4) brought up no issues for me. However, I had read online that boric acid (H3PO4) did not dissociate in water. I looked up \"boric acid\" in the index of my textbook, and turned to a section on boron compounds. H3BO3 was mentioned, and refered to it as boric acid. The text explicitly stated that boric acid was not a polyprotic acid, but a monoprotic acid - instead of losing a hydrogen ion to create H30, H3BO3 accepted an OH ion from the water to create B(OH)4. I wasn't too worried at that point; though both H3BO3 and H3BO4 were referred to as boric acid, the formulas were different, so it seemed entirely possible that H3BO4 could dissociate in water though H3BO3 could not. But when I looked online, I couldn't find very much information on the difference between the two. I found H3BO3 being called orthoboric acid, but occasionally the formula for orthoboric acid was given as H3BO4.

Now, it also has sensors on the referees, first down markers, and end zone pylons. How to fully take advantage of all this data and convert it into value for the NFL and its customers was the big challenge. When Amazon learned that the NFL now had all this player telemetry data, the AWS team suggested that they could help create more value with analytics—similar to what AWS had famously done with Major League Baseball Advanced Media. \"We started working with [the NFL] to help them apply machine learning to that data,\" AWS vice president of marketing Ariel Kelman told TechRepublic. \"They're recording things like when the ball was snapped, what the formation was, how many of which type of player was on the field, what the result of the play was. A lot of that is pattern recognition... The idea is there's a whole bunch of things that require manual detection and tagging that they want to be able to automate.\" So AWS and the NFL drew up a partnership where the NFL used the Amazon cloud, its advanced analytics tools and the new SageMaker machine learning product—while Amazon got to slap the AWS logo on Next Gen Stats as the official sponsor and get a bunch of promotional opportunities that show off what its big data tools can do. The deal kicked off about six months ago, before the start of the 2017 football season, and culminates on Sunday in Super Bowl LII—although both the AWS and NFL folks were even more excited about what they're going to be able to do with the data next year. Here are the three main ways it's changing the game: 1. The impact of Next Gen Stats on NFL teams One week of NFL games now creates 3TB of data, NFL CIO Michelle McKenna-Doyle said in her presentation at Amazon's re:Invent conference last November. After each game, the league now exports a trove of data to each team to help them evaluate their overall performance and their players. The league provides some basic tools to help the teams evaluate the data along with a few basic insights. Some teams have their own data scientists or analytics partners to take it further. The teams are using the data to help inform their training, fitness, and game preparation.

The reasoning: 1.0 represented by the float (shown in hex): 3f80 0000 The numbers between 0.0 and 1.0 are in the range: 0000 0000 <-> 3f80 0000 In other words 0x3f800000 = 1065353216_10 possible distinct numbers between and including [0,1].

That is, higher accuracy for the numbers closer to 0, and lower accuracy for those closer to 1. Is this also correct?

I had mentioned in various posts in this subreddit that I had been working on a fantasy football draft analyzer tool. So I finally got around to putting up a website where you can try it out and get at the source code. Check it out here. The tool is very basic. It definitely doesn't have the level of features you'd find in the draft analyzer (re)sold by most of the big fantasy leagues. My tool shows a continuously resorted table of player rankings and lets you indicate which players are yours and which ones have been taken. The data files are loaded in comma separated value (CSV) format. It also includes data files for the past couple years from some of the big sites and averages of the values from several sites. I haven't tried to collect the data for next season yet, but I will do that a bit later in the year. As a short cut for various other kinds of statistics, I use the auction values that many sites publish. This gives an overview of the relative value of various players. Obviously, this isn't ideal depending on the specific rules in your league. Since the data files are CSV though, it's pretty easy to adjust the values. There are clearly a lot of things I could add to the tool to make it better at handling more complex statistics and different league rules. The tool also has a couple different ways of sorting the data. You can sort by raw (auction) value. You can also sort by (raw value)-(avg of n top remaining players at this position). The idea with this second sort is to indicate \"tiers\" at a given position. For example, if you don't take a QB this round, you're probably gonna take a significant hit in the next round. I know there is lots of room for improvement. I'd love to hear any suggestions. Code changes are also welcome. If there's any serious interest in submitting code changes, I can set up a repository on one of the big code sites. By the way, the tool is implemented in Java.

Gowdy said the memo doesn't reveal any intelligence methods but it does reveal \"one source.\" But Rep. Adam Schiff of California, the ranking Democrat on the committee, said Wray told him Monday that the review didn't satisfy his concerns about the memo's release. Wray wanted to brief the committee about FBI and Justice Department concerns ahead of any release, a request committee Republicans blocked, Schiff said. On Tuesday, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders pushed back on reports that the release was imminent, saying the White House has no \"current plans\" to do so. \"The President has not seen or been briefed on the memo or reviewed its contents,\" she said. A senior White House official said the National Security Council is leading an interagency review of the memo. If Trump decides to release the memo, it could be made public as early as Wednesday afternoon, said the official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss confidential internal deliberations. So far, the official said, the Justice Department is the only agency opposing its release. Asked Tuesday about the department's position on the memo's release, Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores declined comment. Republicans said they are confident the release won't harm national security. They also said they would not release the underlying intelligence that informed the memo. \"You'll see for yourself that it's not necessary,\" said Texas Rep. Mike Conaway of Texas, who's leading the House's Russia investigation. But Schiff said the memo's release could compromise intelligence sources and methods. Some Republican senators have also said they don't want to release the memo, and Democrats have pushed back on Republican criticism of the FBI, saying it is an attempt to discredit Mueller's investigation. The probe has already resulted in charges against four of Trump's former campaign advisers and has recently moved closer to Trump's inner circle. In response, Democrats on the panel have put together their own memo. On Monday, the committee voted to make the Democratic memo available to all House members — but not the public.

He had a couple of drinks beforehand. So, say The Simpsons is getting toward the end of its life, right? My boyfriend says that the writers should consider starting to age the characters in real time through the end of the series. Like, season to season, Bart and Lisa should be advancing in school, Homer and Marge get older, etc. This way the writers could “keep things fresh” and always have new material since the relationships between the characters would have to change as they age. This would be groundbreaking and fascinating to watch both because it is: A) A huge change so late into a TV series & B) The only cartoon (to my knowledge-I haven't had cable in years) in which all the characters age and we could identify with them like the family from Full House. I disagree with the whole idea completely. I think the writers are still doing just fine and that over the years, changes in the show's approach are obvious but not so much so that they alienate too many of their viewers. Furthermore, they've maintained an audience for 22 years without any wild changes to the set up (with perhaps the exception of killing off Maude) why change for change's sake? I feel that if the writers of The Simpsons were age its characters and announce it to the world, a lot of people will see it as a “jumping the shark” scenario.

That has not been as big a problem in Turkey, even though there are some 3 million Syrians here — more than in all of Europe combined. As in Europe, many of the Syrians in Turkey are educated professionals who are under-employed, working off the books for low pay — part of Turkey's swelling black-market economy. At first, when Syrian refugees began streaming over the Turkish border in 2011, the Turkish government granted them a special protected status — but no work permits. Many thought the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad would fall quickly — another domino in the Arab Spring — and that Syrian refugees would be able to cross back over the border and return home swiftly. With the Syrian war now in its seventh year, Turkey has opened a path to Syrians for official employment. But few have taken it. One of the government's motives in trying to regularize Syrians is that Turks have been worried about having their wages undercut. \"There was a public concern that Turkish people would be unemployed because of the Syrians being employed with lower fees [wages],\" says labor lawyer Mehmet Ata Sarikaripoglu. \"We see what happened in Europe, and", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

The analysis includes an assumption that tax cuts and other administration policies would cause the economy to expand at a 2.9 percent annual pace over 10 years.

According to the analysis, the other half of the increased growth will come from tax reductions for individuals and businesses whose profits are reported on owners' personal income tax returns, as well as from planned administration initiatives such as infrastructure development and a welfare overhaul. GOP leaders in Congress aim to iron out the significant differences between the House and Senate tax bills to pass a final blended package. Republicans are determined to produce the first revamp of the nation's tax code in three decades and prove they can govern after their failure to dismantle Barack Obama's health care law. Rep. Kevin Brady, who heads the House Ways and Means Committee and is a key leader in the House-Senate compromise talks, said Monday that lawmakers were moving toward a vote on the final package next week. Still, key issues appeared to remain unresolved. \"I'm pleased with the progress we're making,\" Brady, R-Texas, told reporters. \"We still have work to do.\" The only issue for which Brady noted a firm commitment was repeal of the inheritance tax on multimillion-dollar estates, a benefit for ultra-wealthy Americans. \"In the House, we feel very strongly about fully repealing the estate tax,\" he said. Republican leaders have struggled to placate GOP lawmakers from high-tax states like California, New York and New Jersey whose constituents would be hit hard by the elimination of the prized federal deduction for state and local taxes. Repeal of the deduction added up to $1.3 trillion", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

It is a known fact that Panic Attack Disorder is one of the easiest psychological disorders to remedy. If you don't feel like seeing a psychiatrist, try this simple solution of remembering to breathe properly. If you are a generally anxious person, checking out something like a yoga class could be a good idea. After getting yourself to breathe in and out nice and deep, shift your focus toward something you know you will enjoy, e.g. talking to a friend, watching a tv show, listening to music, etc. Marijuana, as far as I experience it, is a nonspecific amplifier, meaning whatever you are feeling will become amplified. There you go, start enjoying your highs again! P.S. 1 The breathing thing is useful in useful any anxiety-causing situations (e.g. social anxiety). You want to be able to breathe with your stomach. For whatever the reason, it is common to see people with anxiety problems to also have stomach problems (e.g. digestion).

Fundraising is a huge part of a modern university president's job. So is running the complicated institution in a way that grows its reputation and strength.

Furthermore, critics hurt their case when they dismiss the coordinator as a \"bartender.\" A glance at the job description sets the record straight. The description lists more than 50 duties, of which \"serve as bartender during events\" is only one. Other duties include \"initiate, plan and coordinate all official entertaining events hosted by the president and first lady,\" \"coordinate all catering arrangements,\" \"extend invitations and coordinate RSVP follow-up,\" \"on-site management of the event,\" \"track expenses,\" \"oversee payment\" and dozens of others.

So why do I find myself preferring to play through Diablo 2 for the 278th time? I have put it down to a few things; * Character variety and customization. One of the best things about D2 is that there are 7 different classes which all play very differently. In addition to this, there is about 5 or 6 ways to play each character. You can play a poison necro (my favourite), a bone spell necro, a curse necro, a summon necro, a golem necro, and a few others just on that one character. Where as in Torchlight there are only a few powerful spells per each character, and since they are maxed out at 10 you can usually use all of them without the need to specialise at all. * Environmental Variety. The environments in Torchlight look spectacular. Every single different area has excellent little details and beats out Diablo 2 visually in almost every aspect. However. They are all essentially the same map with a different skin. Diablo 2 had large open areas you could run around, then you would go down into cramped and narrow dungeons, it had buildings, caves, fields, jungles, etc. Each area looked different and felt different as well. As good looking as Torchlight's areas are, they are all the same when you get down to it. * Loot. Torchlight rains down loot upon the character, especially once you level up treasure hunter, you are finding something unique or set every couple of minutes. This severly undermines the value of such items. In D2 finding a unique/set outside of a boss run is awesome because it happens so rarely. That, and they are usually significantly better then what you are using. Torchlight lacks hugely powerful unique weapons, the type that you will have trouble ever replacing because they are just so good.

The number of stickers each child set aside for others provided a quantifiable measure of sharing. The key finding was that, on average, children who heard the story featuring a human who shared increased the number of stickers they shared, whereas those who heard the story featuring an anthropomorphic animal that shared did not. In other words, young children applied the lesson from the story to their own behavior, but only when the story featured humans. The researchers also found that when children in another group were allowed to choose whether to read the story about humans or the story about anthropomorphic animals, they had no reliable preference. This suggests that the story about humans wasn't more effective in promoting sharing simply because children found it more appealing, and also that children weren't reliably drawn to the more fantastical alternative. The findings from the study reinforce the idea that young children have an easier time exporting what they learn from a fictional storybook to the real world when the storybook is realistic. The leap from a fictional human to a real one is simply smaller than the leap from an anthropomorphic raccoon to a human. But it could be that as children grow older they become better at making these leaps, or that parents can help them make the leaps more readily. In a paper just published in the journal Cognition, for example, developmental psychologist Caren Walker and I found that prompting 5- and 6-year-old children to explain key events in a storybook made them better at extracting the moral of the story and then applying it to a real-world problem. This is something parents can do easily as they read storybooks with their children, asking them why (say) an anthropomorphic raccoon did or didn't share, and why other characters responded as they did. If the theory in our paper is right, this should help children relate the unrealistic aspects of the story to what they know about the real world, and thus appreciate the patterns that hold across both the fictional world of the story and the real world around them.

What we do with those 24 hours ultimately impacts everything from our long-term success to how we relate with the important people in our lives. Key to utilizing our limited amount of time is successfully allocating our mental focus, or to use the technology vernacular, our \"mental bandwidth.\" Just as you can only perform so many simultaneous computing tasks for a given amount of network bandwidth, so too can we as human only focus on, and be successful at, a certain amount of tasks. Here are some tips for managing your mental bandwidth. 1. Ignore the dogma and experiment The world is ripe with prescriptive advice, yet as individuals what works for me may not work for you, and oftentimes the advice is conflicting. For instance, a penny saved might be a penny earned, yet we're also told not to be penny smart and pound foolish. The same holds true with advice for mental bandwidth, where one \"reputable\" source might encourage multitasking, while another demand absolute singularity of focus. Rather than trying to adapt your working style to someone else's, experiment with different techniques and keep those that help, while casting aside those that don't, even if they work for a well-regarded guru, loved one, or friend. There's no harm in mixing, modifying, and abandoning in an effort to find techniques that work best for how your individual brain is \"wired.\" 2. Actively manage your mental bandwidth Perhaps the biggest mistake many people make is allowing their mental bandwidth to be managed for them. The beeping phone, meeting request, or act performed for ritual or obligation all rob our limited mental bandwidth, and many perform these actions unquestioningly. If you allocate your focus as you see fit, and actively choose what you want to focus on, you'll be in command of your mental bandwidth even when faced with unmovable obligations ranging from work to civic duties. SEE: Time management tips for tech professionals (free PDF) (TechRepublic) 3. Do a bandwidth cost/benefit Most of us are awash in meeting requests and accept without question. Everyone complains about excessive meetings, yet it's often a guilty pleasure to summon a group at your whim, or join a discussion under the assumption that your input is necessary and valuable.

Lately everything I do and say becomes an argument. I'm not the type to start fights, and have never really had any issues with anyone in my life before.

Conway, Trump's presidential campaign manager and now a senior counselor, said on Fox News last week that Americans should \"go buy Ivanka's stuff.\" She spoke after retailer Nordstrom announced it was dropping the branded line of Ivanka Trump, the president's older daughter. Federal ethics rules prohibit executive branch employees from using their positions to endorse products. \"There is strong reason to believe that Ms. Conway has violated the Standards of Conduct and that disciplinary action is warranted,\" Office of Government Ethics Director Walter Shaub wrote in the letter. Stefan Passantino, the White House ethics official named in the letter, declined to comment. A White House spokesman did not reply to a request for comment. The ethics office has little enforcement power. It can formally recommend disciplinary action if the White House does not act, Shaub said in a separate letter to two U.S. lawmakers who sought a review of Conway's remarks. Following video from Feb. 10 That recommendation would not be binding, and the process would take until late April or early May, Shaub said. If the ethics office does formally recommend discipline, it would be up to the White House to decide any steps against Conway. Norman Eisen, who was ethics chief under President Barack Obama, said Congress also could call hearings or subpoena documents if the White House did not act. Trump himself earlier attacked Nordstrom for dropping his daughter's brand. The ethics rules that bar endorsements do not apply to the president, though critics said his comments were inappropriate. Nordstrom said it made the decision because sales had steadily declined, especially in the last half of 2016, to where carrying the line \"didn't make good business sense.\" In his letter to the White House, Shaub wrote that his office's regulatory guidelines include an example violation in which a hypothetical presidential appointee promotes a product in a television commercial. He said Conway's remarks closely mirrored that example of what not to do. White House spokesman Sean Spicer said on Thursday that Conway had been \"counseled,\" but Shaub wrote that the Office of Government Ethics had not been informed of any corrective steps.", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 460, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

You'll suddenly find that there's inspiration all around you. SEE: How to keep your staff motivated and engaged (free PDF) (TechRepublic) 2. Follow aspirational companies and industries Rather than looking solely to industry peers or your customer base for inspiration, identify a few companies or industries that have capabilities that you'd like to acquire. Recently many companies have begun focusing on customer experience, and seek inspiration from the retail industry, a relatively obvious example of looking outside your industry. There are also more nuanced examples. Perhaps your company sells plumbing supplies through a complex network of dealers and distributors. Automotive companies have long been faced with similarly complex distribution and dealership networks, yet must market directly to consumers, and may provide techniques and inspiration that haven't yet arrived in your industry. Apple has long been known for creating well-designed products, but they also run a world-class supply chain, with complex manufacturing and distribution relationships that could be relevant to any manufacturing company. Even business models can serve as an inspiration. Uber brought digital disintermediation to the masses, and being \"The Uber of [insert industry]\" has become a bit of a cliché, but it's still worth thinking through whether other business models could be applied to your company. Could you rent your products rather than selling them? Is there a physical product or a service offering that could augment what you currently sell? Could you serve as a middleman that allows entry into an otherwise expensive product? Other companies have proven that unconventional business models can be successful, so at the very least thinking through how these could apply to your industry will prepare you for potential competitors. 3.

We're the men and women that are supposed to make decisions, provide guidance, and answer tough questions. These are important leadership skills, but increasingly, so is asking the right questions.

Demonstrators from New York City to Seattle organized rallies Sunday to condemn the white nationalist groups that had descended on the Virginia city this weekend. In all, activists say, more than 500 events were planned throughout the day — including a candlelight vigil in Florida, rallies in cities across western Michigan and South Carolina, and a march through Manhattan to Trump Tower. \"If the last 48 hours have shown us anything, it's that white supremacy is alive and well,\" Courtney Thomas told fellow protesters in Greenville, S.C., according to The Greenville News. On the other side of the country, Seattle has seen a fraught confrontation among a conservative pro-Trump group called Patriot Prayer, a sizable group of counterprotesters and the riot police seeking to keep them peacefully separated. \"The West Coast has slowly been infected with communist ideologies throughout our entire culture. It is a belief that the individual is weak and that we are all victims. This is the lie of the century,\" Patriot Prayer wrote on the Facebook page for the event. \"These liberal strongholds run off of hatred and negativity,\" the group added. \"Patriot Prayer will bring in a positive message to Seattle that the people are starving for.\" Ed Ronco of member station KNKX said the pro-Trump demonstration \"had been in the works even before the events in Charlottesville,\" adding, \"but once that happened, hundreds of counterdemonstrators showed up at a different city park to march to the pro-Trump rally.\" Organizers behind the counterprotest, known as Solidarity Against Hate, called the people behind Patriot Prayer \"far-right extremists.\" \"When they come, they bring violence, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and Islamophobia (among other forms of bigotry) to our town,\" according to the group. As counterprotesters began moving toward the park where the Patriot Prayer rally was being held, riot police sought to corral the crowd with pepper spray and devices known as \"blast balls.\" In response, The Seattle Times notes, the officers were \"pelted only with harsh language and silly string.\" Eventually, both sets of protesters converged on the same park — but were separated by police. \"Anti-fascist protesters continue to shout down the pro-Trump speakers,\" the paper reported, \"and more than once, someone from the crowd has jumped onto the stage to", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Gaining insight into operations and production capabilities to make informed decisions has often involved time-intensive IT projects and a highly specialized skillset. Today, Rockwell Automation expands the FactoryTalk ® Analytics portfolio, a robust advanced analytics environment that empowers users with the ability to quickly and confidently make informed decisions. These latest advancements were developed to reduce the complexity of the operations environment for manufacturers and producers and their employees who are driving operations. FactoryTalk Analytics has been developed for scale, discovering and connecting data sources from the edge of the network up through the enterprise, and then intelligently fusing the information to resolve issues close to the source. At the edge or the device, this can result in near-immediate resolution of production issues. Empowered with machine learning capabilities, FactoryTalk Analytics learns the process and looks for trends in the data, proactively presenting users with insights before an issue arises. FactoryTalk Analytics brings contemporary user experience capabilities, which are common for consumer experiences, to the production environment. Focused on driving ease of use and productivity, FactoryTalk Analytics features internet-like search capabilities of production data, as well as self-serve drill-downs, allowing the user to make data-driven decisions quickly. Rockwell Automation has chosen the Microsoft ® Azure ™ cloud as the preferred platform for FactoryTalk Analytics, to help develop and power advanced IoT solutions from the edge to the cloud. Rockwell Automation executed several customer pilots before the official release of FactoryTalk Analytics, which generated several purpose-driven applications that prioritize ease of use and faster time to value. In one pilot, a manufacturer of solar panels used FactoryTalk Analytics to connect the data sources of legacy systems spread across multiple facilities. They’re now able to more efficiently manage data both on-premise and in the cloud, which will minimize downtime and allow them to save millions of dollars in IT spend. In another pilot, a global automotive manufacturer implemented FactoryTalk Analytics to help improve operational productivity. Purpose-driven applications brought data together from disparate systems that had previously proven difficult to integrate and had limited workers’ ability to investigate production issues. The solution is giving production managers and executives new visibility into key areas of operations and helping them more accurately forecast production targets. “Smart manufacturing promises to remove blind spots between organizational silos, putting users directly in touch with information,” said Blake Moret", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

The nonprofit describes PhRMA as a dues-paying member with no larger role in shaping the group's activities. Partnership spokeswoman Clare Krusing would not say how much each member contributes. PhRMA spokeswoman Allyson Funk declined to say whether PhRMA funds the partnership. \"PhRMA engages with stakeholders across the health care system to hear their perspectives and priorities,\" Funk said. \"We work with many organizations with which we have both agreements and disagreements on public policy issues, and believe engagement and dialogue are critical.\" Campaigning Against Drug Imports The partnership recently launched its ad campaign, warning against the alleged dangers of legalizing Canadian drug imports. It includes television commercials, promoted search results on Google and a full-page print ad in The Washington Post and The Hill. The group's YouTube page shows recent commercials targeted to viewers in 13 states. \"We don't disclose specific ad figures, but the campaign is in the high six figures,\" Safdar said. The commercials ask voters to urge their senators to \"oppose dangerous drug importation legislation.\" The newspaper ad reads, \"Keep the nation's prescription drug supply safe. Urge the Senate to reject drug importation measures.\" Its headline declares that \"170 healthcare advocacy groups oppose drug importation,\" noting a letter to Congress signed by its members. The ad lists 160 members who signed the letter, and PhRMA's name is not included. \"Having a big membership allows the coalition to present what looks like a unified show of grass-roots support... but it does raise questions about which members of the coalition are really driving and funding the group's policy-making,\" said Matthew McCoy, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania who studies patient advocacy groups. The list of groups includes at least 64 trade organizations representing the biomedical industry, professional associations representing pharmacists, a private research company and two insurance companies.

JRuby The Java implementation of the Ruby programming language was found to allow remote code execution in a way that isn't possible in Ruby as a base language. By calling executable Ruby code using a specific function in JRuby, IOActive was able to get the function to execute an operating system command, the Linux command id, by loading a file on a remote server. 5. PHP The venerable server scripting language was used to call an operating system command, again the Linux command id, using the shell_exec() function and exploiting the way PHP handles the names of constants. \"Depending on how the PHP application has been developed, this may lead to remote command execution,\" say researchers. That said, many web admins have long known the potential risk posed by PHP's shell_exec() function, and how to disable it. Exploitable flaws in each programming language were identified using a tool called a differential fuzzer, which was designed to automatically find vulnerabilities. The fuzzer works by running through a large array of scenarios in each language, calling each of the languages' native functions with a wide variety of different arguments and observing the results.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0111", "text": "WENGEN, Switzerland (AP) — A warm aroma of melting wax curled out of the room where an unsung artisan of Alpine skiing was at work. The trail led from a brightly lit basement, directly below a restaurant in a three-star hotel. It was a games room for most of the winter season in the Swiss Alps resort of Wengen, but pingpong tables were folded away during World Cup race week in January. The space was needed for teams of technicians that spend hours hunched over workbenches, waxing the bases and sharpening the edges of skis to make a downhill racer like Lindsey Vonn that much faster. Their work is crucial to any racer's success at the Pyeongchang Olympics, which open next week. It started long before the games, during preseason equipment tests, through offseason training, and on race days. Working mostly out of public view, often in hotel cellars, the so-called servicemen are little-known even to ski fans. Leo Mussi was in Wengen trying to create speed in the skis of two American downhillers for one of the season's classic races. \"We are really a little strange, I would say, too, us service guys,\" Mussi, one of skiing's most respected techs, told The Associated Press. \"It's a tough job, physically, mentally. You travel a lot, you are on the road. But it's a kind of drug, too, this job.\" Top-ranked racers are matched with technicians by their ski sponsor. Lower-ranked racers and newcomers typically have their skis prepared by a serviceman with the national team. At the very top, some can request the best techs in a limited free-agent market. When Bode Miller split with renowned serviceman Heinz Haemmerle in 2009, Vonn was quick to pounce. \"They call him 'Magic Heinzi' for a reason,\" Vonn told the AP. \"He has been doing this for almost as long as I have been alive. He is amazing and I trust him completely.\" That faith helps bind a skier's courage and racing instinct to hit speeds of up 145 kph (90 mph) on the mountain. Mussi has dedicated almost 30 working years to two downhill racers — his fellow Italian Kristian Ghedina, and now American Steven Nyman — while employed by ski manufacturer Fischer. \"Leo is basically like a European father figure", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

The administration found out about this and sent an email out and had a teach-in. ( Things started to die down until a noose was found in one of our libraries. There was a large protest headed by the Black Student Union the following morning. From what I've been hearing, students started taking over classrooms and marched into the chancellor's office and presented a list of demands. Some of the demands included asking for more blacks to be admitted, a \"safe zone\" designated spot for blacks on campus, and funding for the BSU to spearhead their own projects. In the interest of being politically correct, the chancellor agreed to many of the demands ( Things are still developing. Now, I'm all for racial tolerance and equality, but things have gone too far. I agree that the party could have been found offensive, but it was headed by a black man who later stated that he did not intend it to be offensive. The BSU's demands are just ridiculous. California's schools are already strained financially, as our tuition just rose by ~30% by a decision made a few months ago. Now the BSU is essentially asking for affirmative action so more blacks will be admitted to the supposedly underrepresented UCSD. They also demanded things like free tutoring for black students, a mandatory African-American studies course, and a permanent task force to fund outreach for black students and professors. I'm just curious if I'm the only one who thinks that this is absolutely ridiculous. BSU demands may allow blacks to be more represented, but it will also cause qualified students of other races to be rejected, which is not in the interest of racial equality. Many of their requests demand that the school pay for BSU events when the school is already having to make budget cuts. Plus the request for a \"safe zone\" for blacks seems like a \"separate but equal\" Brown v. Board of Education reversal to me.

I favored Obama in that fight because he didn't support a universal mandate to get health insurance (but look how that turned out). Health *insurance* is a business industry, and whether or not you should buy it is a financial decision that should be made by individuals. I could care less about who does or doesn't have health insurance. Health *care* matters. That's what everyone should have access to. Either you have insurance for it, you pay for it our of pocket, you get private charity, or depending on the extent to which the government decides to help, the taxpayers pay for it. Why aren't we arguing over the extent to which the government decides to help? Instead we're arguing about how *exactly* should the billion dollar Christmas present to the insurance industry look? Even if you don't believe that the insurance industry will benefit, why bother with the middleman at all? What's wrong with \"have the taxpayers pay for it\" being a payment option at the hospital? At least that way, when the cost gets socialized, it's distributed to the whole country, not just the next guy in line who now has to pay $6,000 for a broken wrist to make up for the money the ER is losing on people who can't pay?

The best name I can come up for this right now is Interpersonal Metacognition. It's not accurate, and it doesn't really capture everything I'm thinking but whatever. Picture the scene: you're at a relatively crowded bar and you notice an attractive (insert sex here) across the room. It's a small place, so it's not unlikely that they will notice you eventually. More on that later. At this point, the system is in a 1:0 state. You are aware of the other person, but they are not yet aware of you. Before you noticed them, the state was 0:0. Ok, a very brief period of time elapses and it becomes evident that the other person noticed you noticing them. Now we are at 1:1. An entirely unique place compared to 1:0. The 2nd party (2P) is now aware of you being aware of them, and the tables are even. This can quickly transition to 2:1. You are cognizant that 2P is aware that you are aware of them. 2:1 is again, an entirely different emotional and cognitive state than 1:1. If you have a vivid imagination you may be feeling a familiar combination of anxiety and excitement right now. 2:2 pushes slightly further into the territory of \"OH CRAP WHAT DO I DO NOW\". Ok, so what happens as n:k grows larger? My theory is that a face to face meeting with conversation and exchange of ideas is represented by large n and k. At this point knowing what the other person's awareness of your awareness is is easy. What if both numbers are really, really big? My thought is that might be interpreted as really good sex. When both people are in the \"same place at the same time\" physically, emotionally, and mentally. Of course, sex between two people of very differing numbers would be terrible... And then of course there is the infinity:infinity. I don't think this could possibly exist due to barriers of language and such, but I guess you could compare it to something like a Vulcan mind meld or some similar \"psychic\" link.

At its conclusion, this wonderful young man was arrested and charged with crimes against the state.

In the process, he passed out on the train tracks, exhausted from hunger. He woke up as a train ran over his limbs. He then endured multiple amputations without anything to dull the pain or the hurt. His brother and sister gave what little food they had to help him recover and ate dirt themselves, permanently stunting their own growth. Later, he was tortured by North Korean authorities after returning from a brief visit to China. His tormentors wanted to know if he'd met any Christians. He had, and he resolved after that to be free. Seong-ho traveled thousands of miles on crutches all across China and Southeast Asia to freedom. Most of his family followed.

For this exercise use DNA sequence file LOC_Os12g44390_gene.fas, which contains only one gene sequence in fasta format.

Another new service, AWS Glue, could make it easier to analyze customer data as well. Glue is an extract, transform, and load (ETL) service that simplifies the processes for loading data into Amazon S3, Amazon Redshift, Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), or other databases running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), so that the data can be further queried and analyzed, according to a press release. ETL jobs in Glue can be created through the AWS Management Console. Customers tell Glue what data they want to target in AWS, and then Glue \"discovers the associated metadata (e.g. table definitions) and classifies it, generates ETL scripts for data transformation, and loads the transformed data into a destination data store, provisioning the infrastructure needed to complete the job,\" the release said. AWS Glue is a serverless solution. Because of this, customers are billed for compute resources consumed relative to data preparation and loading jobs, the release said. In an effort to make cloud migration easier, AWS also announced its new AWS Migration Hub, an umbrella solution made up of the AWS Application Discovery Service,", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Most I've known know little to nothing about the company itself (saying smugly, 'ha! we don't need to know this, we already work here'), and I consider their education to be complete nonsense, being able to regurgitate and misinterpret Maslows hierarchy of needs (and other first year psych courses). It's a sham - and I've yet to understand why this idiotic profession got to where it is. Most HR people I've met are narcissistic and egoistical - with a god complex because of the power they hold over people's careers. They produce nothing of value for companies (on par with the Janitor and other expenses), and I challenge anyone to argue otherwise. Coupled this with poor education, no working knowledge of what they are hiring (plus consider there too many variables to note when dealing with people to make any sort of estimation over whither or not the candidate's personality fits with the organization - oh but I'm sure your training is better than that of a psychologist - and they require hours and hours of time in order to analyze someone) and too much authority creates the perfect storm for bureaucratic retards - and this is the reason why I hate HR people.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 340, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I'm happy because it's within tolerance of the resistor, as we'd expect, and there's not much in the rest of the circuit when tested separately. So, now I say to the wife, Ohms law is a rule of electronics ...blah, blah, blah... so therefore E= IR should work out to I = E/R, so in this case I = 9.45 volts / 978 Ohms = .009 amperes, right? Exhibit D shows my measurement of current across the circuit. .106 amperes. Alright, I know there might be some error, so let's just say it was .09 amperes. Then I'd still be off by a factor of 10.

Jeff Duncan on the House floor after his first State of the Union address. \"100 percent.\" Duncan had implored Trump to \"release the memo.\" Television cameras captured the exchange as Trump was leaving the chamber. The White House had said before the speech that it was still conducting a legal and national security review of the document, and press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters earlier Tuesday that Trump still had not been briefed on its contents. The memo arrived at the White House on Monday evening after Republicans on the House intelligence committee brushed aside opposition from the Justice Department and voted to release it. Under committee rules, the president has five days to object to its release. The four-page memo was written by Republicans on the committee, led by chairman Rep. Devin Nunes of California, a close Trump ally who has become a fierce critic of the FBI and the Justice Department. Republicans have said the memo reveals improper use of surveillance by the FBI and the Justice Department in the Russia investigation. Democrats have called it a selectively edited group of GOP talking points that attempt to distract from the committee's own investigation into Russian meddling. On Tuesday, House Speaker Paul Ryan said he supports the memo's release but doesn't want Republicans to use it to attack special counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 election and whether Trump's campaign was involved. \"This is a completely separate matter from Bob Mueller's investigation and his investigation should be allowed to take its course,\" Ryan said, noting that he also supports Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who oversees Mueller. Ryan said the memo shows \"there may have been malfeasance at the FBI by certain individuals.\" He did not provide additional details, only saying that \"there are legitimate questions about whether an American's civil liberties were violated by the FISA process,\" a reference to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. It's unclear how FBI malfeasance could have solely resulted in a judge signing off on a FISA warrant. Applications for such warrants are submitted by Justice Department lawyers before a judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.

The nonprofit, called the Partnership for Safe Medicines, has recently emerged as a leading voice against Senate bills that would allow drugs to be imported from Canada. Both the lobbying group and the nonprofit partnership have gone to great lengths to show that drugmakers are not driving what they describe as a grass-roots effort to fight imports, including an expensive advertising blitz and an event last week that featured high-profile former FBI officials and a former Food and Drug Administration commissioner. However, a Kaiser Health News analysis of groups involved in the partnership shows more than one-third have received PhRMA funding or are local chapters of groups that have received PhRMA funding, according to PhRMA tax disclosures from 2013 to 2015. Forty-seven of the organizations listed in the ads appear to be advocacy organizations that received no money from PhRMA in those years. A PhRMA senior vice president, Scott LaGanga, previously led the Partnership for Safe Medicines for 10 years. At PhRMA, LaGanga was responsible for the lobbying group's alliances with patient advocacy groups, and he was simultaneously listed as the executive director of the Partnership for Safe Medicines on each of that group's annual tax filings since 2007, the earliest year for which they are available from ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer. LaGanga wrote a 2011 article about the partnership's origins. Published in the Journal of Commercial Biotechnology, it described \"public-private partnerships in addressing counterfeit medicines.\" His PhRMA job was not disclosed in the article. From 2010 to 2014, the organization hosted a conference called the Partnership for Safe Medicines Interchange. In a video from a 2013 event, LaGanga thanks pharmaceutical companies, most of them PhRMA members, for sponsoring the event. In February, LaGanga moved to a senior role at PhRMA and stepped down as executive director of the Partnership for Safe Medicines, just as the group's campaign to stop import legislation was revving up. The partnership's new executive director, Shabbir Safdar, said LaGanga resigned from the group to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest. \"That's why Scott's not executive director anymore,\" he said.

Any other comments? * * * A common answer to the question of why a omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent God would allow evil to occur is that he has endowed us with free will, thus giving us the ability to stray from him and choose to do evil. If this is true, I would wonder why, in addition to creating commandments that we're supposed to follow but can choose not to, God also created a separate set of rules — the laws of nature — that we can't choose to violate. Instead of giving us the Second Law of Thermodynamics, why not give us free will on the matter, just have the 11th Commandment be \"Thou shalt not make unto me any machines of perpetual motion\", and punish us for violations like he does with his other laws? Instead of giving us the Law of Gravity, why not add yet another line to the Commandments — \"Thou shalt not levitate\" — and let the wicked pay the price for their sinful disobedience? (That would have made for some interesting Bible stories. Imagine Sodom, not a city full of abominable homosexuals, but a city where everyone spits in God's face by floating around all the time.) Going in the other direction, if we do not object to the inviolability of the laws of nature, why doesn't God make \"Thou shalt not kill\" into a law of nature that we *can't* violate, instead of one we *shouldn't* violate? Sure, the mathematical description would be vastly more complicated than any of the other laws of physics, but that shouldn't be a problem for him; he's God, after all. (Surely he doesn't make these decisions based on what would be most convenient for our physicists to reverse-engineer?) In short: why has God given us some laws that can be violated (at our own peril), and others that we cannot possibly break? If he wants us to have \"free will\" and that is the reason he allows evil — where \"evil\" is defined in the first place as violation of his laws — why has he given us certain laws that we *cannot* choose, by our own free will, whether or not to follow?", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 469, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Once overflowed, an attacker can copy data into the protected application stack and execute any code they desire. The most obvious solution to Fusée Gelée would be to issue a software patch to fix the bootROM, but here's where a problem arises: bootROM patches on Tegra X1 chips are impossible once a chip leaves the factory. Ipatches, which are patches released at the factory during chip production, would be able to fix the flaw on X1 devices that haven't left the assembly line yet, but anyone who has a current Tegra X1 device is vulnerable to a Fusée Gelée exploit. An important warning about hardware and firmware security There are several lessons to be taken away from the Fusée Gelée exploit, and they apply to OEMs as well IT professionals. First off, manufacturers need to be sure that their hardware has been properly tested against all possible attacks. Fusée Gelée allows a device owner to hack their own hardware, which isn't a risk itself, but it could also allow an attacker to write code to remotely execute a similar attack. Firmware security is a critical part of device design that can easily be exploited—just look at Spectre and Meltdown. Had Intel been diligent in seeking out vulnerabilities, it might not be facing a vulnerability in nearly every single processor it ever created. SEE: IT leader's guide to reducing insider security threats (Tech Pro Research) For IT support staff and security professionals, Fusée Gelée paints a whole other set of complications: hardware security. In the case of the Nintendo Switch, hardware modification was necessary to force the device to boot into recovery mode. Doing so isn't complicated though: It just requires the bending of an exposed pin. It's not known what kind of hardware exploits may be necessary to force other Tegra X1 devices into recovery mode, but it's best not to find out and to implement good hardware security policies instead. Publicly accessible devices should be protected from tampering by putting them in locked cases or in secure mounts. From a security perspective, Tegra X1 devices should be closely monitored to make sure they aren't on a business network while in a modified state. While the risk of problems from a rooted device is minimal, they still open up possible attack avenues that may not be expected.

It doesn't look like much; just a little 2-inch-square circuit board that plugs into the wall. The board senses about a dozen different facets of its environment: vibrations, sounds, light color and so on. The sensor communicates wirelessly with a computer, which interprets everything it picks up. Laput demonstrated how the sensor works by turning on a blender.

Add it to the immeasurable pool of theistic theories that have been debunked.* Theists tend to believe in signs from above. Something simple like a rain storm could be interpreted as a sign from their god to whatever interpretation they desire. If they are in the farming business then it can be a very good sign, if a loved one just died and they are in morning it could be seen quite dramatically in the opposite spectrum. Signs, like religion itself, are all based on an individual's interpretations. Recently I've come across some people that think the most ridiculous things could be signs from above, both in my real life and online. \"What does it mean?\" (it means the sun's light is refracting off water vapor droplets), and I feel that signs can lead to an imbalance of where our real emotional spectrum should lie. While it's a natural act to be excited by a change in weather, it's in our nature to adapt and enjoy the change; it is discouraging when that change brings on a chemical reaction in a person's brain far beyond what it naturally should. Evangelicals often see catastrophes as signs from a god even when there is a completely natural, physical explanation for the events to occur. A parallel to their notion that earthquakes are caused by homosexuality (one would argue that only an idiot would truly need a comparison, but they do indeed need one) would be if I were to push a glass off of the edge of the table, gravity takes affect, and the glass shatters. All of these are very natural occurrences, but then I say that god has shattered the glass because evangelicals are wicked demons sent from hell to poison the thoughts of humanity. While it's a pleasant thought, only someone who is completely insane would agree with it. The only differences in the two experiments would be scale, and the willingness to understand gravity.

The first week of class will either be next week or the week after, depending on when I can get a computer. Hopefully I will get a computer this weekend, but I also have bills to pay and whatnot, so it's going to be a little rough for me over the next week, but I will definitely record a lecture next week, and hopefully edit and post it in a timely fashion. The schedule will be a little bit loose. I will post the first lecture of the week on Mondays, along with essays and other resources, and I will probably post subsequent lectures throughout the week. I'm debating about the idea of live lectures, any thoughts? Also, viewing is still up in the air, as I could do UStream, Netflix, just post links to downloads or I could just let you run off into the wild on your own. By Sunday, everything will be figured out and hopefully I will have a computer which will clear up a lot of problems for me, right now. Good bye and good luck out there!

So you saying this, this is what that pattern looks like, now you can feed that into an AI system, and you can start to create a set of patterns that you can look for, and then obviously do what we ultimately wanna do, which is not just predict, but avoid outages and equipment failures in an industrial setting. Patterson: Andrew, last question for you, what about the security? All of us adopting Internet of Things, see security as an integral component of the entire infrastructure. What role does cybersecurity and cyber defense play in adoption of IoT devices? Bennett: Yeah look, the software, the hardware that we deliver for our clients, you know we are working with folks that are driving mission critical OT out there in the industry. So that's the good news. The bad news is that those clients are always gonna be targets, you know really aggressive nation state type attacks, not just your run of the mill hacker. So for us, as a company, when you kind of go back to thinking about EcoStruxure and those three stacks, I think the important thing is to think, not just about how well hardened is that connected product, 'cause some of them aren't.

But you have to think about cybersecurity comprehensively across that entire stack. Not just the products, not just the edge control, but the software layer at the top. So, for us as a company, that's really our approach to think about all three of those aspects of EcoStruxure, how we not just bring new devices and add new IO to that environment, but how we think about cybersecurity from the product design level all the way up to that top stack of software, so, it's a big challenge, and you know we take it pretty seriously as a company, as you can imagine.

I have since decided to go with the Arduino instead, but I still have some questions in regards to how I'd go about implementing it. As I explained in my other post, this it what I need to do: My computer should read from an XML file or a database which contains information on when to turn on which LED and for how long. It then sends this information to the Arduino, which is connected to an array of about 50 LEDs. My main problem is no longer the lack of appropriate reading material, but rather the absolute abundance of it. With this in mind, I would like to know if any of you hardware-wiz redditors could be as kind as to recommend me a single book or tutorial that covers all or most of what I need to know in order to get this working. I realize I may sound a little lazy for wanting to tackle this with a single book or tutorial, but for the record, I do not plan on making a career out of this nor am I particularly interested in learning all in-depth details of it apart from the absolute necessary.

Two guys with swords attack each other within a quarter of a second and they just bounce off. How it should be with all bladed instruments in FPS. Also, just the basic melee in Halo is more reasonable. Sneak up on a guy and melee him in the back, instant kill. Run at a guy and hit him in the face, takes at least two hits.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0158", "text": "I have not been commenting on reddit for very long, and this is actually my first post, but one thing i've noticed that has bothered me slightly is that once comments on another comment start piling up it gets harder and harder to actually figure out what some people are actually responding to. Sure, I could scroll up and start minimizing comments down until I find exactly what was replied to, but to me that seems a little tedious and takes away from the flow of the thread. So I have a couple ideas about how to improve this. The first of which is probably the easiest and simplest and that's basically a \"what is this replying to?\" button that would just automatically scroll the page up to that comment, with the comment being located right at the top of the page so it's easy to find (thus giving the redditor a chance to manually minimize those sub-comments between the reply and the original post it was replying to). One of the other ideas I had was a similar type of \"what is this replying to?\" button that just collapses everything above it up to the comment it was replying to. It would have to possibly close multiple roots that are also responses to that same comment, but all it would basically be doing is hitting the \"minimize\" button on several comments simultaneously. I, like most people, read from the top to the bottom, so assuming this, I would have already read/replied/voted on those comments that I wished to that would be within the collapsed area. I wouldn't say this is something that is a hinderance to me using Reddit, but like I said, it overall affects the flow of how fast I can read through the thread and make sense of it all. I think a function like this would help more people get more out of reddit right at the root of how it's being used. Thanks guys, keep up the good work!

I am now looking for a new challenge and thought I might try applying for a few C or C++ roles. This is not because I favor one language over the other. Languages have never really been an issue for me. I have always just used what I have been given. Case in point, about a year ago I was contracted to duplicate the look, feel and functionality of a web app using Excel. Thousands of lines of VBA and most of my sanity later, it was done. Highly painful and something I would never do again, but I still enjoyed the challenge and I am glad I went through it. It must be noted that I had no choice in the tools I was allowed to use. I did voice my opinion of the can of snakes they could be unleashing, but those were mostly ignored. Back to the present though. C and C++ command a slightly better salary where I am, though not by much. The money is not the driving factor though. What I am looking for is a way to get away from web based dev for a little bit and perhaps more so the Java toolchain.

Click the Add A Tag Link and supply a keyword (Figure C). To add more than one, separate the keywords with a semicolon.

And *Expert 2000* which offers 2GB of space and 20GB of bandwidth; a nice plan for big or business sites. The server currently supports: * PHP 5.2 * MySQL 5.1 (with MySQLi) * PostgreSQL * Python * Perl * CGI * Ruby on Rails Sadly theres a requirement for both the plans (sorry!). For the Personal 300 plan I require a linkback on all displayed pages. For the Expert 2000 plan I require the same as the personal plan plus an ad. Nothing is forced on your pages and you can choose where you want to put everything. If you're wondering why I do this, its because I need to support my service somehow. As requested by a current member of my site there is an ad-free plan for $5/month if you want it (SSH if you ask for it with this plan too). I'm a very transparent person so if you're wondering what I get from VlexoFree here it is. I make about $6 a month from co.cc referrals, and I haven't received any money for the ads yet. Donations are (so far) the main source of support I get and that can be done and seen in full from the forums. I think thats everything you need to know.. Feel free to sign up. Note: I don't run VlexoFree for profit (can you even have profit for free hosting?); I run it to give people who don't have money the opportunity to have a website. *** * **Addition 1: If you don't need hosting please don't sign up for an account.

Rather than dilute its distinctive, value-oriented approach by consolidating with other major VAD players, this catalyst will enable Exclusive Group to extend its vision and create the world’s largest global specialist VAD in cyber and cloud transformation, with a target to reach $10bn annual revenue in the years ahead. Olivier Breittmayer, CEO at Exclusive Group, said: “Cybersecurity and cloud are the leading business priorities in this age of digital transformation, both as separate disciplines but – even more so – joined together as a co-dependent whole. Both sectors are becoming increasingly complex, and both suffer from a huge lack of skills & knowledge. The Industry needs a VAD that can fill this gap and we aim to do that. We believe we have the right and relevant focus; vendors, services and skill sets to build a compelling offer for channel partners and vendors to realise significant profitable growth.” By pursuing a specialist focus in cyber and cloud, Exclusive Group is addressing the widening global shortage in skills and knowledge among channel partners and end-user organisations to enable the desired pace and success of digital transformation. “We have some of the best people in the world and by far the highest ratio of engineers of any distributor in our class,” added Breittmayer. “We also have the greatest track record of ensuring local, regional and global market success for disruptive technologies. Our strategy will see us continue to build out the strongest possible vendor portfolio in our ‘cyber super centres’ and ‘cloud competency centres’ – across all relevant segments – and expand our service offerings and global footprint to meet the demands of any project.” Michail Zekkos, Partner in the technology team at Permira commented; “Exclusive Group’s unrivalled focus and commitment to cyber and cloud is very exciting and we are delighted to partner with the company. We believe that enterprise cloud and cybersecurity will continue to rapidly converge, creating a tremendous market opportunity for the company to enable that transition while positioning its channel partners at its forefront. Preserving the entrepreneurial spirit and independence of the business while continuing to innovate with speed and at scale will be key to executing on its next phase of growth.” View source version on businesswire.com:https://www.businesswire.com/news", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

There is also a bit of damage to the Gelcoat on the starboard quarter due to this. I do realize that this boat will have other problems due to neglect, but does it sound like the boat is past the point of no return, or can these problems be fixed for under 10,000?

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0170", "text": "So I'll try to keep it short. Basically, you see companies get too big and they fall apart because too many people are making too many decisions. What happens usually is there are smaller companies (disruptive companies/technology) that come in and debase the old, big companies because they're more efficient. But then they usually become large as well, and the cycle continues. I relate this to Britain/America in the early days. Britain had their monarchy and wasn't about to change any time soon. With the advent of America, a small colony that was able to make progress quickly, we see that democracy (or a democratic republic, whatever we are today) or some semblance of it has quickly spread throughout the modern world. As of today, I think the idea of democracy is too old, and that we're seeing many of its problems. I think the solution to this would be a type of \"disruptive government\": that we could take a bunch of people, move them somewhere else with all the knowledge we have, and try to make a new society off it. If it works, I'm sure the rest of the world would want to follow. The only problem is that there's no more land to create a new government on Earth (which is why I'm for space travel and such... but that's beyond the point).

However, if a moderator would like proof that I am who I say I am, I'll happily provide it. I ran a huge piracy network for games. This was before the days of Rapidshare or the mainstream availability of torrents. The sites effectively were simply a front for a worldwide distribution network of donated server space. At the time, piracy of games (particularly older games) was of dubious legality. No one had actually ever been prosecuted for either distributing them or downloading them that my team knew of, so we thought it was fine and accepted by the industry. Similarly, the term 'piracy' was effectively unheard of. The sites themselves were for a period of about 2 years the biggest distribution network of ROMs for Nintendo consoles ranging from the NES through to the Gameboy. The sites were all shut down due to the threat of legal action. I made no money during the operation of the sites, but I did make a small sum of money following them being shut down, by selling PHP scripts to early anti-piracy companies for analysis. The scripts themselves restricted download speed, gave false addresses for the download location, restricted download amount, and restricted access by IP range. I also attempted to alleviate my conscience by working on and off with a loss prevention department (no dedicated piracy department in those days) of a large games publisher.

Working Class: there are two things that will get support from the working class. Jobs and Children's safety. Simple messages about how prohibition makes it easier to for kids to get pot and about how legalization will revitalize California's economy.

One of the fascinating things about the Godel incompleteness results is that infinity itself is not the problem. In some systems of arithmetic you can believe you can count to infinity and still be complete and consistent. Some even include the infinite set of induction axioms. One such decidable arithmetic system is known as **Presburger arithmetic]( Presburger arithmetic is essentially the [Peano axioms without multiplication defined. Actually, multiplication is allowed in this system, just not between two variables - multiplication by constants is allowed. So statements like this are allowed Exists x Forall y,z (10*x + 56*y - 28*z < 1873 AND (12*y - 86*x + 32*z) > 3298 whereas Fermat's last theorem is not Exists X, Y, N (X^N + Y^N = Z^N AND N>2).

Yet the incompleteness problem is not even due to multiplication alone. A system with all of Peano's axioms apart from addition, but inclusive of multiplication was shown by Thorlaf Skolem to be complete](#Mathematics). The completeness problem derives from the combination of addition and multiplication on variables. These operations together provide the ability to construct the [Godel numbering by allowing the definition of the unique prime factorisation of every integer and the mechanism by which Godel's unprovable statement can be constructed. So we have yet more demonstration of how easy it is to skirt Godelian incompleteness. The Godelian incompleteness results are really about carefully choosing the formal language concepts we use to describe systems we wish to use. The real problem faced by humans is not even Godelian-incompleteness, its computational complexity]( Even solving relatively small problems of Presburger arithmetic takes [impossibly large amounts of time.

Jasper RCMP members responded and headed east but almost immediately after received a report of a two-vehicle collision. It got worse. “A male suspect had exited his vehicle and was yelling at bystanders and attempting to fight them,” Const. Patrick Vallee said in a press release. “The suspect then got back into his vehicle and fled the accident scene.” He pulled over a short distance west of the scene at a spot known as disaster point and according to bystanders, started loading what looked like a gun, hiding behind his vehicle. Many of the members of the public likewise took cover behind their own vehicles. Two Jasper RCMP officers conducted a “high-risk arrest” and took the suspect into custody without incident. He was transported to hospital to be treated for non-life threatening injuries he sustained in the collision. “The RCMP would like to thank the public for its assistance during and after this incident,” Vallee said.

First of all, many of my students come from wealthy families and attend private schools. Nearly all of them are weaker students, and thus really do benefit from the course. So what of the slower students who don't have the kind of money to enroll in my classes? For instance, let's take the famous twin paradox but change it slightly. Say I have Twin A and Twin B, and for reasons unknown they grow up separately but are equally intelligent. Twins A and B would both receive 1500 on the SAT unaided, but because Twin A's adoptive family is wealthier, Twin A takes a class and receives a 1600. The Twins apply to the same school, and Twin A gets in while Twin B does not. The only difference here is a three-month course and some expendable cash. Second of all, am I really helping these students in the long run? If colleges operate on the assumption that standardized testing is really standardized, then am I helping students enter institutions that have workloads they can't handle? Am I helping them go to colleges that will only leave them confused and exasperated? I believe this is pretty different from a licensed educator choosing a rich neighborhood to teach in, since the purpose of SAT prep is to give students a leg-up on the competition, and not really teach them anything new or impart knowledge on them.

Here are some solutions I came up with and why I am or am not going to use them * Squid with malware blacklist * I would LOVE to use this. It is easy to setup, and our checkpoint firewall integrates into it very easily. However, two issues. 1. Our neworking team is anti-anything. 2. Not all of our sites have checkpoint FWs (this is not a complete deal breaker, but it would require some GPOs to be pushed out to make proxy changes) * Blocking malware sites at the hosts file * I quickly realized that this would be a great opensource project, and went to Sourceforge to see if anyone else had done it... Which they had. (malwareblocker unfortunately, looks like the product is no longer maintained. I am still tempted by this, but not 100% positive that I want to do it. * Windows Defender/MSE * One of my team has done some mild testing with this, and found that it did not block most malware/viruses. Also, it has to be deployed via GPO (which I hate). Thus not high on my list. So after this, I am curious, anyone else doing this on lowbudget quick solution?

The victim was taken from the home on a gurney, witnesses said, and transferred by Gold Cross Ambulance to a local hospital. Police confirmed just before 5 p.m. that the victim had died. Police remained on the scene into the evening hours, and at 8 p.m. Duluth police reported that its officers — as well as several agents from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — were executing search warrants in connection with the case. A \"person of interest\" had been detained but no arrests had been made as of 8 p.m., Duluth police said, with the investigation expected to continue overnight. Mayor Emily Larson said in a statement Tuesday night that she wanted to assure the Duluth community that the police department is \"fully engaged\" and has responded swiftly to make progress to resolve the case. \"When a person is harmed in our community, our whole community is harmed. Today, tragically so. Our condolences go to the victim's family and friends. As a parent, this is simply heartbreaking news,\" she said in the statement. Duluth Police Chief Mike Tusken said that preliminary information indicated that the incident may have been related to a home invasion or robbery. The shooting took place in a small, single-story house that neighbors said has been college rental property for several years. Eleventh Street is a dead-end in that area, just off Central Entrance, below Skyline Parkway and two blocks west of Myers-Wilkins Elementary School. School district officials said the school was placed in a precautionary lockdown on request of police after the shooting. School was already out by that time but some students still were in the building for extracurricular activities.

Watch the video or read the transcript of their conversation below: Patterson: The cloud has had an undeniably transformative effect on the enterprise and SaaS, of course, is at the heart of cloud growth. Now, the growth of SaaS might be up to non-IT workers. Ryan, thank you very much for your time today. I wonder if we could first define how SaaS has grown historically to this point, and then we'll talk a little bit about why it's up to non-IT employees to help the growth of the cloud, and cloud-based applications. Duguid: Certainly, so at the end of the day, the massive upswing in SaaS is driven for obvious reasons, right? There's cost savings associated with it, a lack of requirement for as many IT administrators to keep the lights on, but fundamentally, I think it's about speed of delivery of technology to the business, and that's always been a problem in the IT sector, and SaaS really makes the promise to solve that problem. Patterson: So what is it about SaaS that has either reached an apex, or what is it that is now demanding non-IT employees to buy in as well? Duguid: I think there's two parts to this, right? The first part is that at the end of the day, SaaS has largely been driven by demand from the business. IT historically has struggled to keep up with the requirements of the business, and so the business is constantly pushing for the latest and greatest technology. I think the other side of it, is now there's a proliferation of SaaS vendors out there, when in the early days it was the big boys like the Workdays, and Salesforce and the likes. There's not a SaaS application for everything, for every business function, for every industry, no matter how large or small, and so as a result there's really this thirst or appetite for the business to get in and self-serve, even if IT's not willing to be a part of that journey. Patterson: Can you give us a profile of some of the IT and business technology decision makers who are now involved in the process of adopting SaaS solutions for the enterprise?

On a molecular level, the more heat you add to something, the faster it goes. The molecules speed up, bouncing off of each other, and state changes are a manifestation of this effect. Ice is only ice because the molecules are moving more slowly than they are when it's a gas and this is a direct reaction to the temperature of the h2o. Technically I guess it IS the h2o itself. What if increasing temperature is to reduce the amount of time necessary for a molecule to get from one place to another molecules. For all intents and purposes, increasing the 'speed' of 'time.' Seeing as time is a rate itself. A timespeed... of sorts. Lets say we've got an object that moves ten miles an hour no faster no slower no matter what. We increase timespeed around this object. We double it, say. This object is moving 10mph. But it is traveling at a rate of two seconds per second. So for every second that it's traveling its traveled two seconds forward in time a the same mph rate. Effectively accelerating it to 20mph. You increase timespeed, the object moves faster. On a molecular level, if you increase the temperature, the exact same thing happens. So if you freeze a thing, absolute zero, almost no molecular vibration or close to it, how is this different than if you reduce the speed of time to almost completely stopped?

I'd rather be dead than unable to trust my own eyes!\" **Batman:** \"They may be drinkers, Robin, but they're still human beings.\" * Catwoman disguises herself as Kitayna Ireyna Tatanya Kerenska Alisoff - aka Kitka - to infiltrate Batman's world and destroy them from the inside, possibly a reference to the Second Red Scare of about a decade prior, which led to McCarthyism. It seems that these (and others) are pointing to the fact that so much law is based on morals that we assume to be held by all people. Batman even points out in the above quote that even though the \"rumpots\" are amoral lowlifes, they are still human, hinting that all humans are flawed in some way, and that the morals of the rumpots may not reflect the morals of, say, Commissioner Gordon or Bruce Wayne Enterprises.

Not the best movie ever by any means, but certainly one that raised my consciousness and captured my attention.

First of all, the movie is not completely historically accurate, infact it is a little chewed up in some areas, however it correctly captures the *essence* of the period and people in a way that only film can. That was most important to me. One thing I was surprised about was how beautiful the movie was. Ignoring the script, it is one of the most beautiful historical films I have ever seen: the sets, props, city and cinematography are all excellent. It is inter-spaced by impressive scenes of the planet earth, resting almost, in space. The movie took time to build itself up, which is important to me. It didn't feel rushed at all. They had a story to tell and told it in the amount of time required to do it well. But the real reason it captured me was for it's look into the darker side of human nature, for at it's heart it is not just a movie about religion, it is about whether we as individuals and as a society are able to lift ourselves up, question our universe, probe it and be passionate about it. That is the story here. It left me wondering as i walked out about how we, humanity, are so close to our primal instincts, and how we must try as hard as possible to make sure we question everything and find wonder in the universe that surrounds us.

I don't remember what the overall story of the book was, but I do remember most of the beginning of the book.

These three young men then acquire magic swords somehow. The main characters sword can talk to him, and possible was imprisoned in the sword. One of the other swords \"knows how to fight\" (this may be an exact quote from the book) meaning that whoever wields it inherently knows how to fight with a sword. I'm unsure on this point, but I believe these swords are capable of killing a God and were stolen by the protagonist from a God. The main antagonist is a soul stealer, and among other souls consumes the soul of the river nymph from the beginning.

The Street's Leon Lazaroff wrote that Siri's main problem is a consumer base expecting it to function like other virtual assistants, which it cannot do because it was designed for a very specific purpose. \"Siri's job is to integrate those devices, it's meant to grease the connections between Apple devices, making the iPhone integral to the iPad, AppleWatch and AppleTV — and all points in between,\" Lazaroff wrote. \"The problem for Apple is that people have come to expect a voice-activated device that can answer relatively easy questions fast and efficiently, and Siri...has mostly fallen short.\" Siri's inability to answer basic questions like Amazon's Alexa, Microsoft's Cortana, and Google Assistant has left users confused about what the feature is actually supposed to do. Verge journalist Walt Mossberg wrote in 2016 that Apple \"wasted its lead\" with Siri and was too slow to add features and functionality that its rivals had already mastered. \"Siri's huge promise has been shrunk to just making voice calls and sending messages to contacts, and maybe getting the weather, using voice commands. If you try and treat Siri like a truly intelligent assistant, aware of the wider world, it often fails, even though Apple presentations and its Siri website suggest otherwise,\" Mossberg wrote. A study done by Stone Temple last year found that Siri \"only answered 21.7 percent of questions and nailed 62.2 percent of them completely, correctly,\" noting that \"Alexa and Siri both face the limitation of not being able to leverage a full crawl of the web to supplement their knowledge bases.

I'll be performing a solo piece as part of my choir's first concert on March 21, and I've taken up fanfiction writing as a way to limber up my creating muscles for more advanced fiction-writing exercises. I've still got things to work on, but my life is so very much better than it was two months ago. If I had to attribute the turn-around to anything, it would be this: Hang in there. See your friends as often as possible. Engage the world. Network with other professionals in your field. Do what makes you feel lighter inside, no matter how stupid or inconsequential it may seem, and don't talk yourself down because the things that make you happy are stupid. Face the scary things in your life; hiding from them doesn't solve anything. I spent my whole life hearing that I was lazy, amoral, purposeless, spineless, and that I had nothing inside. Maybe it's true and maybe it's not, but if someone like me can dig herself out then maybe there's hope for other people too.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 373, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I'd like to suggest two things which should prevent mods abusing their power in secret and/or people assuming this is the case and rising up in arms on non-issues. 1. Implement more transparency of mod power via an audit trail. This should be simply a public page which records and displays all mod events happening for all to see. Could look like this: ---- * Mod1 deleted comment at <time> - Reason: *Blah* * Mod2 deleted post at <time> - Reason: *Spam* Or something like this. The reason would be the mod's own input on the act to explain his actions. This would then allow people to see if someone is doing something they shouldn't and call them out on it. 2. Implement more accountability via voting on the mods. This could be done by a) people simply having the capability to go to the list of mods and vote each up or down or b) by voting on their audit trailed actions. ---- a) This would allow a mod who has become abusive and extremely unpopular to be demodded by public demand, say if they receive 50% downvote by the active members of the subreddit or something. This way power-tripping mods have a way to be stopped from ruining a community. b) would allow acts which go against the collective will to be undone. A mod actions that receives sufficient downvotes could be then automatically undone by the reddit system and the mod who is continuously having their mod acts undone could then lose their mod status. These are just suggestions of course and may have many flaws I have not foreseen which is of course why I think it's a good idea to discuss them and see if they can be improved so as to avoid being abused themselves. Personally I'd love to see the transparency idea implemented since it's pretty harmless at least and would certainly reduce some of the conspiracy theories and paranoias and certainly act as a roadblock to power-tripping mods.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 426, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

This is essentially putting money into politics. Now if someone wants to sell a message (in the form of a book/cd/message, or a corporation wants to pay for a webpage about a topic, etc.) this should be protected under free speech. But paying money to get a message into a prime attention-grabbing space/time is essentially spending money to influence an election, not exercising free speech. A logical ruling would allow corporations to disseminate their message in a free and legal way or through the already existing channels but they would not be allowed to spend money on it to get it heard. Nobody would block you from making a documentary and selling it but you can't pay for people to see it. I would argue that (out of fairness and the difficulty in clearly banning this) corporations should be allowed to pay production costs and research for ads even. Still, they should not be allowed to pay for the placement of the ads. Another argument I thought of is that basically you ARE infringing on free speech by allowing corporations to advertise political messages. By basic supply and demand you are pushing up the cost of advertising and thus pushing out some messages that are not well-funded enough.

I'm sure that Reddit isn't the place to be asking this, what with all of the gamers and avid internet browsers/readers/TV watchers around here, but I have nobody else to talk about this with and you guys know intelligent conversation. In the 1960s, Guy Debord, a French philosopher, released a book called The Society of the Spectacle. In the book, he says that life has been reduced to a series of images. I haven't read the entire thing, but I think that the gist of it is that we no longer experience things in real life, nearly everything is vicariously lived. We don't have face to face conversations thanks to cell phones, we don't need to go on adventures because of video games, we don't have to think for ourselves when we have any piece of information literally at our fingertips (thanks Google!), ad infinitum. Debord seems to argue that everything outside of the Spectacle is superior. I don't know if I agree with that, but I do think that some actions outside of the Spectacle have more value than others. For example, creating a work of art is more valuable than doing the dishes for most people. There is a state of mind which I associate with both intense focus and presence; I believe that when people are in this state, they are doing something worthwhile. I see myself in this state of mind most when I am doing something physical (yoga, skating, playing sports) or when I am doing something with art (drawing, singing, playing guitar). Now it would be fine and dandy to just limit the productive uses of time to physical and artistic endeavors outside of the Spectacle, but people enter the same state of flow or meditation when playing video games too. What makes that any different? Is playing Madden 2010 of less value than playing a game of football with your best friends? Why or why not? Where does this separation lie, if there is any?

Pediatric Associates has unique experience with AccuVax as it participated as one of 20 pilot sites nationwide to provide real-world feedback to help improve the System. Clinical managers Virginia Lyons and Liz Wallin were part of the pilot and say the new system has helped to simplify the time-consuming procedures they had to follow to manage vaccine inventories. It has also given them peace of mind that the vaccines they are giving their patients are at optimal potency. “The storage of the vaccines is really important and often underappreciated,” said Lyons. “If you don’t keep them at the correct temperature, it can distort what the vaccine is meant to do, which is to protect our kids and keep them safe.” Lyons estimates that her clinic alone dispenses more than 200 vaccine doses a day. “Doing inventory is a dream with AccuVax, we can easily keep track of inventory and temperature logs through the unit’s touchscreen interface or remotely via a secure web-based portal,” Wallin added. “Previously our staff would have to restock the conventional refrigerator/freezers in the morning and then again in the afternoon. Now we are able to keep hundreds of vaccine doses in the new unit and receive advance notices if a vaccine is going to expire or supplies are running low. It saves us a lot of time.” Inventory losses due to power failure, 1 improper storage and expired doses are common, 2 and have created challenges for even the most advanced practices and health systems. Wallin, who has worked at Pediatric Associates for 24 years, is all too familiar with the amount of effort and stress involved in managing a busy practice’s vaccine supply and trying to avoid inventory waste. She stated that the automated system has dramatically reduced the amount of work and worry involved in managing the large number of vaccines they deliver to their patients. “It sounds silly, but I sleep better because I’m not worried,” said Wallin, recalling having to go to the office at 2 o’clock in the morning after an alarm alerted her to temperature fluctuations in one of her old vaccine storage units. “You don’t have the alarm calling you in the middle of the night.

Now, even Sears officials say its future could be in doubt — though they say they have plans to make sure the retail icon survives. Nancy Koehn with the Harvard Business School says in its early days — Sears Roebuck and Co. was like Amazon is today — a retailer of great disruption. For Sears, it meant a path-breaking strategy of offering all sorts of merchandise in catalogs and building department stores in remote places with ample parking. \"It wasn't the Internet, but it was the same idea that no matter where you are you can touch and feel and imagine what these different products could mean in your life by virtue of an outreach, a distribution channel that an imaginative and gutsy retailer — in this case Sears — had created and then invested in and then enlarged,\" Koehn says. Elgin, Ill., about 40 miles northwest of Chicago, is one town where Sears' innovation is clearly visible. Drive through the streets of one neighborhood and more than likely there will be a Sears Roebuck mail order kit house on one of the lots. Dr. Rebecca Hunter, an architectural historian, stands on the porch of one of them — an arts and crafts style bungalow listed as \"The Osborne\" in the Sears catalog. It's one of about 200 Sears homes in Elgin. \"It's a phenomenon that gained popularity in the 1920s,\" Hunter says. \"Mostly your framing boards were cut at the mill and numbered so that your builder would know how to put them together.\" Between 1908 and 1940, Sears sold blueprints and approximately 70,000 pre-cut kit houses. It was a small part of the company's booming business. Sears' stature is far smaller these days amid a constantly changing retail landscape which brought with it the dominance of Amazon, the rise of e-commerce and big-box discount retailers. It's left brick-and-mortar stores reeling. Despite its merger with Kmart in 2005, Sears has consistently lost millions of dollars each quarter. The retailer has closed hundreds of stores, slashed jobs and sold off key assets like the Lands' End clothing line and its legendary Craftsman brand — although both brands continue to be sold at Sears. Independent retail analyst Sucharita Mulpuru says these changes haven't worked. \"There are just so many onerous forces relating to competition,\" she says. \"I think that no matter", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I'm quite sure that there is not a being on this planet that minus the presence of PCP could have remained standing. However, I'm dealing with a true ninja here. A second later he whips out a handy tac knife and I'm done for. Next I spawn with a teammate who is being shot. I'm not fucking kidding. He is being shot to shit and for some reason the spawn system puts me there. Neat. Dead again. The gheyness couldn't possibly continue for much longer, right? Next spawn, opposite side of the map. I'm alive for half a second when my ninja buddy (who I guess was calling in air support) stands up and slits my throat again. Sigh. At this point I was getting frustrated. A quick class swap to OMA + Tubes and a few minutes later I have chopper gunner out. I remember thinking when I began playing mw2 that IW had made every effort to ensure that things were balanced. I remember feeling like for every new weapon / attachment / perk I tried I was giving something up. This is not the case. I just didn't have the recipe to the secret sauce yet. Over the next couple of rounds (I only played 3 or 4. It was about all I could stand) I noticed that regardless of if it's an objective type or straight up TDM things can usually be decided by 1 player. He may not win every game in objective but at the end of the day he doesn't care. You get about same points and better stats from running a muck. (and yeah, I've seen this before last night - it just seemed a bit more apparent as I haven't been playing mw2 as of late) Couple this with the horrible MM implementation and MW2 is being traded Tuesday, I'm willing to take whatever I can get for it at this point.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 494, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Abdirahman Sheik Mohamud told federal Judge Michael Watson that he didn't want to leave his family but called his proposal \"completely fair and just.\" \"I truly don't believe I deserve prison at all,\" Mohamud said in the Dec. 12 letter, filed in the official court record on Thursday. He added: \"So if the concern is risk assessment then deportation would set everyone's hearts at ease.\" Mohamud, who was born in Somalia and came to the U.S. at 2 years old, may eventually get his wish. After Mohamud was sentenced to 22 years in prison last week, the local Homeland Security Investigations office said it would seek to strip him of his citizenship and deport him to Somalia. At sentencing on Jan. 22, Mohamud told Watson that he knew what he'd done was wrong and that he'd fallen into the trap of radicalization while abroad. Mohamud, 26, tried to fire his attorney in a second letter dated Dec. 15, saying they weren't communicating well. A handwritten note on the letter says Mohamud's request was withdrawn Jan. 9 in court. His attorney, veteran Columbus defense lawyer Sam Shamansky, declined to comment. Mohamud planned to fly to Texas and attack the Federal Medical Center Carswell in Fort Worth in an attempt to free Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani scientist convicted of shooting at two U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, Watson said as he outlined the allegations against Mohamud. According to the government, Mohamud applied for a passport to travel abroad only a week after he became a U.S. citizen in 2014. He bought a ticket to Greece with a stop in Turkey, where he disembarked before going to Syria, prosecutors said in court documents. They said he never intended to go to Greece. Mohamud trained with al-Nusra Front, an extremist organization affiliated with al-Qaeda, prosecutors said. Mohamud was arrested in 2015 and pleaded guilty a few months later. The attacks were never carried out.

If you want to pursue a career in data science, you should consider learning one of the following three languages. 1. R R is a language and framework used for data miners for developing statistical software and data analysis, Panetta said. The language saw a large surge as data analysis and data science become more prevalent in the past couple years, Facemire said. It's popularity has since leveled off a bit, however. R has tooling that is built for data scientists, with extensions and plugins specifically for that purpose. \"It is essential when learning a language like R that individuals understand the fundamental mathematical skills,\" Panetta said. \"It would be disastrous if we just trusted the outputs of software without knowing what we were truly measuring and without understanding the data we were providing it as input.\" SEE: The 10 easiest programming languages to learn 2. Python Python is a general purpose language, which is already hardy, and includes tooling that can fit into environments that require visualizations that will appear in websites or on mobile, Facemire said. It is also more readable than R, he added. \"If you're at the point in my career when you're thinking, 'I want to be a data scientist—which language should I learn?' I would look at both R and Python and see which makes sense to you,\" Facemire said. \"Both are absolutely viable.\" Businesses usually don't prioritize one over the other in terms of required skills for data scientists, he added. 3.

All you have to do is *import* the files you need! svn_trunk +- mainfile.py +- helperfile.py +- and so on... Eventually you end up with a directory containing 100 Python files, and so you need to move on to phase three: putting some of those files in packages. svn_trunk +- mainfile.py +- usefulfile.py +- helperpackage +- __init__.py +- helper1.py +- helper2.py Things are good for a while, but then phase four comes when you realize that you really need to write another new program to solve some other related problem.

My father insisted he talk to them in any case to assure them we were not internet stalkers. LOL. We arranged that she could stay about one week over new years eve. I scraped together the money for her travel with my part time job on minimum wage. I was completely unprepared for the heartbreak that ensued when she left to go back home at the end of that week. The days really started to drag after that but we kept in touch and I sent her valentines. We made various trips to each other over the next few months. Until one trip that we decided she could just go back to her place whenever she wanted. Well she pretty much just didn't go back. She was doing a course by correspondence during all this so it didn't really matter where she was.

For years I had used the S-Video output (with an RCA adapter) to watch movies on my TV. How do I go about that now? My card has two DVI and two HDMI outputs but as you might suspect I'm using an older TV that only accepts RCA and S-Video inputs. Converting the HDMI to RCA looks like it would be quite expensive but searching online I see some methods that convert VGA to RCA relatively cheaply. I'm going to be buying a modern TV possibly next year at the earliest but I want something to tide me over in the meantime (before anyone suggests just buying a new TV--I plan on it). Does anyone have any experience with this or any suggestions? There are a couple other things I was wondering about. My previous card was an Nvidia, and I had it set up so that the video played full screen on the TV while windowed on my PC. This was a big issue for me and, because newer Nvidia drivers disabled this feature, I ended up getting an ATI card which supposedly still lets you do this as \"Theater Mode\". Anyone have any experience with doing that? I'm not planning on using my TV to read text or anything, I just want to be able to watch movies, TV shows, and DVDs, and maybe play an occasional game so I'm not looking for anything too fancy or expensive or ultra-high quality. Looking on Amazon I see one product which looks like it might do the job: Sabrent PC to TV Converter Box]( and a very similar product on [Newegg. One review on Newegg mentions a problem with the aspect ratio and that is something I've had trouble with in the past as video on my TV would become squished so that the top and bottom of the video would be touching the tops and bottom of the screen instead of just showing black bars at the top and bottom when playing widescreen video. I've found workarounds for this problem that I hope to use if I can get the TV to act as a second monitor. So I'd prefer a device that functioned like that and not something that just cloned the video. Anyone out there have any suggestions or recommendations?

Thus I present \"Revenue for Removal (from the gene pool).\" You elect to have a sterilization procedure done and are paid 10,000 dollars for your decision. The program would have a minimum and maximum age, and stipulations. You do not qualify if you are already sterile, no participants under an age limit, etc. The cons I've foreseen; could be seen as targeting lower income or less well-to-do segments of society.

Naturally those who value their ability to potentially reproduce over 10g's would be less inclined while those who do not think of long term consequences as much would be more inclined.

Importance: High FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Greetings Australian Government Officials, Members of Local and International Press, and the General Public. We are Anonymous. Austrailia - 2/8/2010 - Over the past several years, we have maintained a close watch on the actions of the Australian Government with particular focus on its stance towards internet censorship. Australia's laws on internet censorship are already among the most restrictive in the western world. Their government filters more internet content than any other Parliamentary Democracy. For some elements within the Government, including Telecommunications Minister Senator Stephen Conroy, this still is not enough. Late in January of 2009 he proposed legislature that would lead to mandatory ISP filtering for all of Australia. The stated goal is to prevent Australia from viewing \"illegal and unwanted content\" on the internet. Anonymous' concern with this legislature is twofold. First, the ambiguity of the term \"unwanted content\" is completely unacceptable. No government should have the right to refuse its citizens access to information solely because they perceive it to be \"unwanted.\" Indeed, the only possible interpretation of \"unwanted content\" is content that the government itself does not want to be seen. More importantly, Anonymous does not approve of the steps already undertaken by the Australian Government to control what their populous sees. Claiming to be cracking down on \"simulated child pornography,\" many depictions of women with small breasts in pornography have been banned. Officials cannot claim that they believe the models in these movies are in fact underage, as the production the titles that have been affected are heavily regulated to ensure the age of the models. Instead they are relying on earlier ambiguous wording that allows pornography featuring models that \"appear to be\" under 18 years of age to be treated in the same manner as actual child pornography. The repercussions of this censorship of a natural body type on the psyche of Australian women cannot be understated, but this is not Anonymous' concern. The Australian Government will learn that one does not mess with our porn. No one messes with our access to perfectly legal (or illegal) content for any reason. We are Legion. We do not Forgive. We do not Forget Expect us.

So the job is for a radiation health scientist (I was a physics major) and it is about four hours away from where I am living now, so it would be a definite move. My dilemma here is that I am not sure if it is really a job that will lead to a career directly, it pays well enough for a starting position (46K), but other than looking decent on my resume it doesn't seem like its a \"career builder\". My question I guess is, if that is what I should be looking for with my first job because I have been getting different advice from my family and friends. For example, my Dad has been working as an engineering at the same company for over 30 years, it was his second job, and he has had it for this long. And his opinion is that if its not going to turn into a career, then it is not worth moving away for (that is kind of the short version of his opinion). For a little more background, it was in my head when I graduated college that I wanted to get an entry level physics related or engineering job, work for a year or so, get a feel for what it would be like working a job that I could get with my undergraduate degree, and if that didn't seem to fulfilled me, then go back to graduate school for physics or engineering. Like I said, I am new to this (not all that young though, 26) and not really sure what the best course of action might be, and I know it has to be my choice because it is my life that I am stuck living, but any advice/words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

I'll start: When I was in high school we had the opportunity to take a 3D graphics and animation class, which sounded really cool and was rumored to be very easy. Score. The problem was the teacher had no real training on the subject and didn't really know how to teach us to use the software. His solution was to have the entire class just go to the library (where there weren't any computers) to do “research.” So basically, we screwed around in the library, read magazines, harassed the librarians, etc. for our 55 minute period everyday. After looking through enough magazines we realized that the square metallic stickers that were stuck to random pages were the sensors that set off the alarm should you try and walk out with a magazine. The next day we ripped one out and put it in the class bully's backpack. The bell goes off, everyone tries to leave, but guess who has to stick around to have the librarian and teacher search through his stuff? Bully. I think this is where we started thinking we were the most clever people alive and instantly upped the scale. Next day, we put sensors in everybody's backpacks (except ours of course) and made an extra effort for our teacher, where we put three in his bag and attached a couple of them to his clothes with tape. That day the bell goes off and there is absolute pandemonium at the exit. Everybody that tried to go through the exit set the alarm off. The librarian is starting to freak out, nobody has left the library yet and the break period is about to be over (meaning we're going to be late for class), my teacher is getting visibly agitated. Finally, after turning five shades redder and thinking everybody is trying to steal books, my teacher announces “I don't know what is going on here, but I don't LIKE IT! I HAVE TO GO!!” He pushes his way through the crowd and just as he tries to storm out he trips the sensor and is so shocked he stops in his tracks, he looked at the librarian, looked back at us. When the entire class bursted out laughing he realized someone must be playing some sort of trick, shot us a furious glare, and stormed out.

He said about 10 years ago he saw a billboard that say something along the lines of \"keep out nigger\" or something and mentioned the term sundown town. A sundown town is a town where only people of a certain ethnic, social, or religious group are allowed in the town after dark. The most infamous examples of sundown towns are probably the all-white towns which were scattered across the United States well through the 1970s. Sundown towns began to wane with the advent of civil rights legislation, and there is some argument as to whether or not such towns still exist. In more mild cases, a curfew violator in a sundown town would simply be escorted beyond city limits by law enforcement. In more severe instances, people would be severely beaten for being found in the town after dark, and in some cases people were lynched or shot for being in town after dark. Many minorities chafed against the rules in sundown towns historically, but were afraid to oppose them for fear of retribution which could cost them their lives. Travelers from regions without sundown towns often found such towns and their accompanying offensive signage both curious and disturbing. In the case of Southern and Midwestern sundown towns which banned blacks, for example, locals simply avoided the town after dark, but visiting blacks might find themselves in awkward situations because they didn't see or understand the warning signs of the sundown town.

Someone had brought her to the clinic in the middle of the night, authorities said, but when the clinic was closed, whoever brought her abandoned the car and left. They didn't call 911. This month, the Grand Forks Police Department put out a reminder that those using and possessing drugs who are present at the time of an overdose will not be prosecuted if they call and cooperate with first responders. In North Dakota and Minnesota, Good Samaritan laws are on the books that give immunity to those who call in drug overdoses if the caller remains on scene until first responders arrive and cooperate with medical services and law enforcement. The person must be in need of emergency medical services. Up to three people can be granted immunity. The law also applies to people overdosing from alcohol consumption. \"We want people to be focused on saving a life,\" said Lt. Jeremy Moe with the special resource bureau. In 2016, Grand Forks Police responded to 28 calls for overdoses. Three of them were fatal. State Sen. Howard Anderson Jr., R-Turtle Lake, was a sponsor of the Good Samaritan laws that passed in North Dakota in 2015. The former director of the North Dakota Board of Pharmacy, Anderson said he wanted to sponsor the law to give people a better chance to survive. Information provided by companions can be key to successful care. \"It's hard to find out what they took or what the situation is, so by the time doctors get a chance to figure out what it is, it's too late,\" Anderson said. In the process of passing the law, legislators heard testimony from a man whose companions had abandoned him in a dumpster, thinking he'd overdosed, Anderson said. But too few people know about the law, Anderson said. He also believes law enforcement have been overzealous in pressing charges against people, despite the law. \"They're using the Good Samaritan laws as an excuse to charge people because, obviously, if I gave you drugs, then I'm guilty of providing them for you. It's like a sale even if I gave it to you free,\" he said. \"So we need a little better education with police. If you're trying to save somebody's life for crying out loud, back off a little bit. Catch the crook the next time.\" Anderson said users speak to one another, and if law enforcement is too aggressive, it might deter people from calling for help.

Last night at 7] I was meditating on [Avalokitesvara, and I was hit by an insight: The void which is the nature of all exists everywhere and in everything, and in this way it is explained that all the Buddhas are one, and all the Bodhisattvas are one. Thus why would we not become one while meditating, not just with the universe, but with specific other beings? Experiencing this, Avalokitesvara as an object of meditation dissolved. At the same time, the compassion for all life (you too, /r/trees) that I cultivate dissolved as a component of my identity and merged with this compassion-object which also ceased to be external to my self. \"The interior is not different from the exterior, and the exterior is not different from the interior;\" -Pranja Paramita Hridaya Sutra. When I finished (and even now, at 0) I retained the experience of my personal compassion being a fragment of a more universal entity of pure compassion, and in this way connected to the compassion that all of us carry. It's a powerfully good feeling and it doubled my delight in seeing this post. This is unusual because I never meditate on bodhisattvas, usually I just sit. But if you're planning on visiting ego death anytime soon and you want to meet someone very cool (yourself and everyone else), consider meditating on these fine fellows (and ladies!)", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 325, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

The intelligence agencies then sought to learn whether the Trump campaign was colluding with the Russians on the hacking or other efforts to influence the election, the newspaper said. The officials interviewed in recent weeks said they had seen no evidence of such cooperation so far, it said. However, the intercepts alarmed U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies, in part because of the amount of contact that was occurring while Trump was speaking glowingly about Russian President Vladimir Putin. The intercepted calls are different from the wiretapped conversations last year between Michael Flynn, Trump's former national security adviser, and Sergei I. Kislyak, the Russian ambassador to the United States, the Times said. During those calls, the two men discussed sanctions that the Obama administration imposed on Russia in December. Flynn misled the White House about those calls and was asked to resign on Monday night. The White House did not immediately respond to a request from Reuters for comment on the Times story. The Times reported that the officials said the intercepted communications were not limited to Trump campaign officials, and included other Trump associates. On the Russian side, the contacts also included members of the Russian government outside the intelligence services, the officials told the Times. All of the current and former officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because the continuing investigation is classified, the newspaper reported. The officials said one of the advisers picked up on the calls was Paul Manafort, who was Trump's campaign chairman for several months last year and had worked as a political consultant in Russia and Ukraine, the Times said. The officials declined to identify the other Trump associates on the calls. Manafort, who has not been charged with any crimes, dismissed the accounts of the U.S. officials in a telephone interview with the Times on Tuesday. Several of Trump's associates, like Manafort, have done business in Russia. It is not unusual for U.S. businessmen to come in contact with foreign intelligence officials, sometimes unwittingly, in countries like Russia and Ukraine, where the spy services are deeply embedded in society, according to the Times. Law enforcement officials did not say to what extent the contacts may have been about business, the Times said.

In his closing statements, Swift's lawyer Douglas Baldridge referenced the example that Swift hoped her suit could be for others in similar situations \"by returning a verdict on Ms. Swift's counterclaim for a single dollar — a single symbolic dollar, the value of which is immeasurable to all women in this situation.\" In his own closing arguments, David Mueller attorney Gabriel McFarland wondered why his client would introduce himself by name and then almost immediately after reach under the skirt of \"one of the planet's, one of the country's, biggest superstars?\" The case was largely fought on the credibility of Swift and Mueller. Late this past Friday, a federal judge threw out part of the case brought against Swift by Mueller, saying he had not proven Swift had set out to get him fired. Swift countersued Mueller for sexual assault after his own suit was filed in 2015, leading to Denver trial which began jury selection last Monday. Swift initially had sought to keep the incident quiet. By Friday, most of the principals in the case had been heard from — most notably Ms. Swift herself, who had several sharp rejoinders to questions from Mueller's attorney.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0289", "text": "Sometimes when I'm sitting on a plane I think about this. The closer you are to a gravitational object, the more highly time is dilated (if youre near a black hole, youre time slows down a LOT) So being high up, time should run slower for someone on the ground. But you are also moving at around 500 miles per hours, so special relativity says time should slow down in the plane. So which effect wins? Does time slow down more than a person standing on the earth because of your velocity? or does time speed up in the plane because of their proximity to the surface of the earth? I finally found the answer, which is as follows. The way you can calculate the effect of gravity to first approximation is to just consider an inertial frame on the airplane and let it fall. Due to the equivalence principle, this is the same as letting starting a person at rest and accelerating them away from you and then a second observer accelerates past you (the guy on the ground as you fall). YOu can calculate the speed when that person gets next to the 'falling' inertial observer by 1/2mv^2 = mgh and solving for v. You get about 1000 miles per hour, double the horizontal velocity, so the gravitational effect is twice as strong as the special relativity effect. So in some respect, if you are standing on something higher up than someone else, you are traveling 'faster' than they are, even though both of you are standing still, because youre both in an accelerated frame of reference.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 321, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0291", "text": "Since 2012, the CDC, which sets public health standards for exposure to lead, has used a blood lead threshold of 5 micrograms per deciliter for children under age 6. While no level of lead exposure is safe for children, those who test at or above that level warrant a public health response, the agency says. Based on new data from a national health survey, the CDC may lower its reference level to 3.5 micrograms per deciliter in the coming months, according to six people briefed by the agency. The measure will come up for discussion at a CDC meeting January 17 in Atlanta. But the step, which has been under consideration for months, could prove controversial. One concern: Lowering the threshold could drain sparse resources from the public health response to children who need the most help—those with far higher lead levels. The CDC did not respond to a request for comment. Exposure to lead—typically in peeling old paint, tainted water or contaminated soil—can cause cognitive impairment and other irreversible health impacts. The CDC adjusts its threshold periodically as nationwide average levels drop. The threshold value is meant to identify children whose blood lead levels put them among the 2.5 percent of those with the heaviest exposure. \"Lead has no biological function in the body, and so the less there is of it in the body the better,\" Bernard M Y Cheung, a University of Hong Kong professor who studies lead data, told Reuters. \"The revision in the blood lead reference level is to push local governments to tighten the regulations on lead in the environment.\" The federal agency is talking with state health officials, laboratory operators, medical device makers and public housing authorities about how and when to implement a new threshold. Since lead was banned in paint and phased out of gasoline nearly 40 years ago, average childhood blood lead levels have fallen more than 90 percent. The average is now around 1 microgram per deciliter. Yet progress has been uneven, and lead poisoning remains an urgent problem in many U.S. communities. A Reuters investigation published this month found nearly 3,000 areas with recently recorded lead poisoning rates of at least 10 percent, or double those in Flint, Michigan, during that city's water crisis. More than 1,100 of these communities had a rate of elevated blood tests at least four times higher than in Flint.

It hadn't really bothered me that much, however now that ALL of my friends aren't virgins I feel a bit left out of some frequently occurring conversations and am getting annoyed with being pressured into it or new friends that inevitably find out (I'm an open person when people ask stuff) think that i'm no good with women and then feel the need to talk about how they are going to help me get laid or what not. The question is whether I should have sex with this girl. I don't really like her and would never want to have a relationship with her. However she is pretty attractive (neck down anyway). She would do me in a heartbeat. She would also become very attached, I'm sure, as she is already hung up on me before anything has happened. So I have been resistant of doing anything cause I feel it would be wrong to just treat a girl like a piece of meat just for my pleasure. However my friends argue that since she wants it, I am not being bad by giving her what she wants, and that I need to man up and just get over this hump and or I will regret it. Right now, she is the only option I have at a moments notice, and the truth is I have been down lately because I have been getting less attention from girls lately (since high school really) and this would probably make me happy. So reddit, what should I do? EDIT: OK, so I'm glad people are agreeing that I'm not a pussy for not just \"man-ing up\".

When I bookmark a photograph and go to view it later all I care about is the photograph, not its tags, categories, metadata or anything else. So I created a site just for that. Decaflon. You can do the usual stuff like add other photos on the site to your collection and follow certain users, but that is pretty much it. There is a bookmarklet that allows you to save any photo from a site similar to FFFFound. It's not feature rich because again all I care about are the photos.

Microsoft should give all users the option to completely opt out of feature updates—the most recent being the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update— and instead only receive essential patches and fixes.

During the massive snow storms in the Eastern US lately I've tried a few low/no cost methods of keeping warm and dry while digging out. First and foremost, double up on socks and pants. I use two thick pairs of socks, and a pair of flannel pajama pants under my jeans. Optional, but highly recommended. During the first blizzard in the last week: My first pair of makeshift snow pants was simply to wrap cellophane (cling film / saran wrap / etc) around each leg starting at my boot and then up each pant leg. This worked fairly well, but cellophane is difficult to deal with as it sticks to itself. It also doesn't hold up tremendously well in the snow, though a bit of duct tape helped. I imagine it is a more expensive method than the trash bags described below as you cannot re-use it. It does however, have one distinct benefit that since it is wrapped around the boots, it is impossible for snow to get in your boots. During the second blizzard: This time I chose two large (30 gal.) trash bags. I put one on each leg with my toes pushed to the bottom corner of the bag. The bags I used had draw-strings, which I pulled tight(ish) and tied. One strip of duct tape around my calf to pull the excess bag in, but not tight enough to cut off circulation or restrict movement. Another around the top of the bag around my thigh to secure it further to my jeans and keep any snow out. Then I put my boots on over the bags. This worked very well, though a little snow did get in my boots occasionally, but the bags kept my feet dry. The huge benefit to this method is so long as you carefully remove or fold under the duct tape at the top, you can re-use them later for the same purpose. I suppose you could remove the tape at the bottom too and just use it as a trash bag again, if you wanted. Anyway, two very effective sets of snow pants on the cheap with stuff I had at home.

I recently started dating a guy and have noticed that over half his Facebook wall consists of posts from Asian girls. I already know that he's had ~50% Asian hookups/girlfriends in the past. Again, in an area that's <5% Asian. I've brought up the same concern, got the typical response. To clarify, I like my personality and I like who I am, but I don't know what to think anymore. I almost never dwell on the fact that I'm Asian, but it's reached a point where I'm starting to feel significantly devalued as a likeable/lovable person because I'm increasingly suspicious that it's mainly based on my ethnicity and not my personality. I mean, is that it? Do I just spend my life dating guys, finding out they're into Asians, then wondering if that's why they're with me? Should I start rejecting guys who bring up Asia in the first conversation? I don't know what to do.

I live in a big apartment block, and a few minutes ago my girlfriend went down to speak with a neighbour about something. When she got there the neighbour girl briefly told her about something another neighbour had been going on about the last few days when they met in the stairwell etc. The other neighbour is an old man, who seems a bit loony but not super crazy or anything. Mostly lonely I'd guess. Apparently there has been Jehovas witnesses going around knocking doors and so on, but he said the reception has been anything but good. Very few open and the ones who do, don't keep their door open for very long. But he says the witnesses have been coming back repeatedly trying to reach out to people I guess. So anyway the other day, this elderly man who don't really care for Jehovas or anything like that, had been watching them knocking doors and stuff. And all of a sudden he said that he saw them do some kind of a ritual. When my girlfriend told me that I literally started laughing... But to finish the story: The old man apparently went to the public library and lended some books on Jehovas and related subjects to try and figure out what the hell they're trying to accomplish. And after a bit of reading he thinks that he has found what it was they did. He described the ritual as something you do to \"summon the devil\", I guess basically putting a curse on a place/person. At this point I really don't know what to make of it all. Is the old man just crazy and made it all up? Or is it possible that they have done at least something? First of all I for one didn't know Jehovas did stuff like that, can anyone even confirm such acts being performed by them? And secondly, I would've guessed that they had performed prayer or something like that. Some good force to save our poor lost souls from evil damnation and such. Doesn't that make more sense than summoning the fucking devil because people won't open their doors? Thanks for reading! tl;dr: elderly neighbour says he saw jehovas witnesses summoning the devil in our house, might this be true or is he crazy? kthx", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 473, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I think I'm going to go with Tunk's laptop suggestion first, as it is cheapest. I'll let you know how it goes. **EDIT 2:** This is what I ended up with: An old Dell Latitude D800 laptop with an 1.7 GHz Pentium Mobile and 512 megs of ram. After installing Ubuntu Server 9.10, I removed the video card and the display, since there's no way to disable the video fan without locking the CPU to 600 MHz. I also removed the CD/DVD combo drive. The main system fan (which is the main source of noise) is kept off by dellfand, unless the core temperature rises to permanent-damage territory. To prevent the system from overheating I added two left-over heatsinks, one from a Matrox video adapter and one from a Pentium CPU cooler, that I bonded in place using thermal adhesive. The smaller Matrox heatsink goes on the CPU, while the larger CPU heatsink goes on the northbridge chip, as the northbridge chip is normally cooled by the video adapter fan. The cpufreq toolset limits the frequency of the CPU to keep the temperature below the temperature where the fan would turn on - usually it runs at 1.4 GHz, with occasional dips to 1.2 GHz. This keeps the core temperature below 50 degrees. Because of the large heatsinks bonded to the processors the keyboard and some of the trim cannot be attached, which makes the whole thing somewhat less than beautiful.

We start talking about our past weekends, and I told her how I had gone to Vegas. She immediately asks if I took my girlfriend there during Valentine's Day. Hahaha, this is too easy think. I let her know I am single and available. Let her know there is going to be a party this upcoming weekend and that I would give her the details at a later date as I got them. Closed the number. Later that night I get the information from my friend, text her to let it know it will be the following night. That me and my friends were going to see some local bands earlier in the night, and then continue on to the party. She acknowledges that she was in the know about the bands and had considered it with her friends already, but that her plans were up in the air. I played it cool, no pushing, left it wide open. So we carry on with a nice little texting convo for the next hour or so. She tells me she is going to see a male friend in another state over spring break, his name is Jordan. I reply with a joke about if it were MJ then I'm coming with. Showing I'm not threatened by this. We text a few more lines and she comes back to the subject and starts qualifying herself to me saying that this guy is just a friend. I give her encouraging words and move on.

I did this because it was pretty crowded and hard to locate people. No reply. Hour later I call her, no answer. I haven't called or texted since and that was last night around 10:30pm.

(Yes, I say my religion is \"Buddhism,\" but it is nothing like Christianity, Hinduism, or even Taoism.) Its tenets say almost *nothing* about metaphysics, leaving the area open for interpretation. That is why Zen has elements of Shinto, Chinese Buddhism incorporates Confucianism and Taoism, Theravada is like Hinduism, Vajrayana has Tibetan-influenced chanting and deities, and Western Buddhism is, on the whole, atheistic and scientific in nature. Buddhism is a method of looking at the world, and it has these little notches that allow it to click in with any prevailing religious or cultural tradition it encounters. This allows it to spread without conversion and remain possible for all people to practice it. Not only that, but it brings logical thought to many who are practicing with hypocrisy and ignorance. **EDIT:** Okay, perhaps I wasn't clear. What I was implying was that Buddhism *itself* is not a religion. It becomes one once it is paired with the religious traditions of the culture. For example, literal reincarnation is believed in the Indian and some Asian sects because of the presiding religions over there (namely, Hinduism). However, a point to consider is that it is quite possible to accept any of the Buddha's teachings in the metaphorical sense. Reincarnation, Impermanence, Emptiness, etc. these can all be broadened or narrowed depending on colloquial philosophical and ontological opinions. Lastly, I hope I am not offending anyone.

And now, Wikipedia's cofounder Larry Sanger wants blockchain to replace the free online encyclopedia. TechRepublic's Dan Patterson met with Sanger to discuss why he joined Everipedia, and why the blockchain should replace Wikipedia. Everipediais the encyclopedia of everything, where topics are unrestricted, unlike on Wikipedia, Sanger said. More technically, it's a blockchain encyclopedia with a decentralized protocol for accessing and sharing knowledge. SEE: Cheat sheet: Blockchain A blockchain is a list of transactions, or a ledger, that can be used to represent a database. By putting all of Everipedia's content on the blockchain, it creates a transparency between writers and readers. When it's all set up, it will be possible for people to propose adding information to the blockchain, Sanger explained, and people who have tokens (which are earned by adding to the blockchain) come to a consensus about what information gets added to the blockchain. \"In terms of editorial standards, just to get on an encyclopedia blockchain will be relatively easy,\" Sanger said. When the initial protocol is adopted, it should be a very low bar that allows encyclopedia articles to get onto the blockchain, he said. However, the actual editorial decisions that are made won't happen on that level. Different users of the information that make up the blockchain and Everipedia will make the decisions on the ratings of articles, and what order they will be placed.

As a result of those discussions, we've decided at this time that real names will not be required for posting on official Blizzard forums. It's important to note that we still remain committed to improving our forums. Our efforts are driven 100% by the desire to find ways to make our community areas more welcoming for players and encourage more constructive conversations about our games. We will still move forward with new forum features such as conversation threading, the ability to rate posts up or down, improved search functionality, and more. However, when we launch the new StarCraft II forums that include these new features, you will be posting by your StarCraft II Battle.net character name + character code, not your real name. The upgraded World of Warcraft forums with these new features will launch close to the release of Cataclysm, and also will not require your real name. I want to make sure it's clear that our plans for the forums are completely separate from our plans for the optional in-game Real ID system now live with World of Warcraft and launching soon with StarCraft II. We believe that the powerful communications functionality enabled by Real ID, such as cross-game and cross-realm chat, make Battle.net a great place for players to stay connected to real-life friends and family while playing Blizzard games. And of course, you'll still be able to keep your relationships at the anonymous, character level if you so choose when you communicate with other players in game. Over time, we will continue to evolve Real ID on Battle.net to add new and exciting functionality within our games for players who decide to use the feature. In closing, I want to point out that our connection with our community has always been and will always be extremely important to us.

It all started in the gig economy, the report explained. Firms like Uber, for example, use machine learning and related technologies to manage some of the tasking assignments for the self-employed people who work through their platforms. However, now legacy organizations like GE and Shell are also jumping on the AI bandwagon, rolling out tools to their full-time workforce as well, The Wall Street Journal reported. The tech tools are handling tasks such as \"scheduling and shepherding strategic projects,\" the Journal reported, and researchers cited said that this could lead to the elimination of certain management roles of the displacing of other managers. SEE: IT leader's guide to the future of artificial intelligence (Tech Pro Research) These types of machine learning and AI software are also being leveraged in hiring and human resources as well, with Gartner predicting 25% growth in the overall human resources and workforce management software market by 2020. So, what makes AI so well-suited to take over certain management roles? It's all in the data. AI is good at making decisions based almost solely on available data. Humans can use data, but can also lean on their own intuition or fall into confirmation bias, the report said. AI could potentially help make more objective business decisions, but these tools and platforms could also have their own biases introduced by the humans that create them. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, a professor of business psychology at University College London, told The Wall Street Journal that managers primarily work to \"identify potential, build teams, assign tasks, measure performance and provide feedback\"—things that he said humans are not proficient at. However, AI can use data to do perform these tasks, which could lead to a day when we no longer need human managers, Chamorro-Premuzic said. Despite the use of AI in management, some companies utilize the technology only to eliminate administrative tasks, the report said. One also has to question the value of automating that may have been relegated to middle management—a demographic that's true value has been brought into question over the past few years and that has been shrinking in many organizations as they move toward more flat organizational structures. Of course, this further begs the question of what value can be gleaned from automating a position that may have been", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}
+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0330", "text": "On Monday, Google announced new updates to its Cloud Speech API that could help make it a more effective tool for business users. According to a Google blog post, the API is getting a new feature called word-level timestamps, along with support for 30 new languages and three hour files. For those unfamiliar, the Google Cloud Speech API uses neural network models to allow developers to convert audio to text. It's powered by machine learning, and can return its results in real-time. Word-level timestamps, the post said, was the most requested feature for the API from developers. Essentially, this feature adds a timestamp for each word it identifies in a given transcription. \"Word-level timestamps let users jump to the moment in the audio where the text was spoken, or display the relevant text while the audio is playing,\" the post said. SEE: How we learned to talk to computers, and how they learned to answer back (PDF download) One of the customers cited in the post, Happy Scribe, uses the word-level timestamps to lower the time it takes for them to proofread the transcriptions they offer their customers. Another firm, VoxImplant, uses it to better analyze recorded phone conversations between two parties. As part of a broader announcement around Google's voice input capabilities, the Cloud Speech API will now offer support for 30 additional languages, bringing the total number supported up to 119. The languages will first be offered to Cloud Speech API customers, but will eventually be supported on other Google products, like Gboard, as well. As noted by ZDnet's Stephanie Condon, the extended language support could help Google win over some customers in emerging markets. The full list of languages that work with the Cloud Speech API can be found here. Additionally, the post said, the Cloud Speech API will now support files that are longer than three hours in duration, an increase from the previous limit of 80 minutes. Files that are longer than three hours can be supported on a \"case-by-case basis by applying for a quota extension through Cloud Support.\" The 3 big takeaways for TechRepublic readers Google Cloud Speech API now supports 119 languages and three hour long files, and offers a new word-level timestamp feature. Word-level timestamps were the no. 1 most-requested feature, allowing developers to jump to the moment where a certain word was said in an audio transcript.

The state's attorneys are fighting to persuade judges to allow the executions — and to make the decision quickly. The state had scheduled eight men to die over the course of 11 days, because one of the drugs it planned to use in the executions expires at the end of April. Gov. Asa Hutchinson said it wasn't clear whether the state could acquire addition supplies of the sedative midazolam. Two of the executions had been stayed individually before all eight of them were blocked by a state judge and a federal judge. The state judge's decision, reached Friday, was based on how Arkansas acquired another drug — vecuronium bromide, which is used in anesthesia as well as executions. A pharmaceutical supplier alleges that the state bought the drug deceptively, actively misleading the seller about what it would be used for. That decision \"stirred a wave of consternation and threats on social media from state lawmakers and conservatives,\" member station KUAR noted on Saturday — because shortly before the decision, the judge was photographed protesting the death penalty at the gates of the Governor's Mansion. The federal judge's decision on Saturday, meanwhile, was in response to a lawsuit on behalf of the inmates that argued an execution with midazolam would violate their rights. Midazolam has been used in a number of high-profile botched executions, including instances where inmates did not appear to be fully sedated when they received the painful second and third drugs in the cocktail. The suit argued there was an unacceptably high risk they would suffer during the executions. The judge determined that their concerns were sufficient to halt the executions for the time being, to allow the issue to be considered by the courts. Hutchinson and state Attorney General Leslie Rutledge have been pushing to carry out the executions anyway. But they are on a tight schedule: Executions were scheduled to begin Monday night, and if the legal proceedings take more than two weeks, the midazolam supply will have expired before any of the executions can take place. The state has appealed both rulings and asked the higher courts to work quickly to review the decisions. The inmates on death row, meanwhile, have asked the courts to take the time and avoid a \"rushed analysis.\" As the legal battle plays out, the state's execution facility is prepared for a rapid reversal of the decisions.

As dance critic Robert Greskovic puts it, Balanchine was \"responsible for making the ballet a fixture of the Christmas season and of a ballet company's repertory.\" New York City Ballet first presented Balanchine's Nutcracker in February of 1954 but quickly recognized its holiday appeal and moved the ballet to December for the following year. Nutcracker All Over As regional ballet companies sprouted around the country, The Nutcracker became a staple.Today it's a holiday tradition that keeps families coming back year after year; its mass appeal keeps ballet in mainstream culture.

Technically, this project could be written in PHP with no problem, but after all these years I'm getting tired of PHP and the problems I keep running into(mostly security and maintainability).

A couple years ago, I played around with Ruby on Rails and liked a lot about it, though at the time I didn't really have a real project on my mind to use it for, so I never really got deep into it.

A couple weeks ago my Anatomy and Physiology teacher (who is also a general bio and earth science teacher) made an off the cuff remark to let us know she was a creationist. Yesterday, while going over cell structures/functions she did it again. She was talking about the selectively permeable plasma membrane with it's two layers and how it let's water in and out and blah blah blah. Then she starts asking \"what if's\" about this structural feature. \"What if the membrane were *designed* this way, or that way?\" sorts of questions. The answers were obvious. Then she drops it: \"I just can't believe other people think it just *happened* that way. It's clearly a design. Finally I blurted out: NO! No one's said it *just happened* that way. However if it hadn't *become* that way over time, the species wouldn't have survived, and you wouldn't be here right now. Finally she appeared to have gotten the hint and semi recovered it, went back to teaching. In the town I live in it's really easy to assume everyone around you is a young earth creationist. I just can't believe this bitch went out of her way to let us know it not once, but twice, in a public community college. A science teacher. Pushing beliefs. I'm ok with kind of raising a stink if i have to, my average in that class is damn near perfect. If she keeps it up should I just refute her there in class? Even if \"it's\" the right thing it feels disrespectful. Also, you can bet 9/10 people in that class is also a creationist, so I'm completely in the minority. My husband is furious I haven't complained to someone above her. The fact is I don't care if she's a creationist or a scientologist or what. As long as she's teaching out of the book it doesn't matter - but why do I *know* her stance? That's what bugs me.

I loved it and have since wanted to recommend it to some friends but without the title I fear they may never read it. I also would like to read it again. I feel it may have been a more obscure book, not really gaining much popularity but I am posting this with fingers crossed. There are a few key points I remember: There are 5? nations in conflict, each with abilities unique to its citizens. One nation/people can regenerate and self-heal, to the point that some people need to be 'pruned' of extra limbs, etc. Another can manipulate (accelerate/decelerate) the flow of time for themselves. Another can project illusions of themselves, appearing in any likeness; another, a desert-dwelling people, can commune with the earth and see/hear across the world. I don't remember what the other nation can do. The subject of the story is a young prince of the regenerating nation who through some circumstances is thrust into each of the nations in turn, learning their abilities and becoming more powerful. Eventually he returns to his nation, uncovers and thwarts deeply-entrenched subterfuge plots and makes difficult decisions to unify the nations (I think). In the end he returns to his lover (a woman of the time-bending nation) who has vowed to wait for him in ever-slowed time. The near-stasis field lovemaking last hundreds of years real-time and when they come back to normal they live happily ever after in a changed world. I really enjoyed this book. I would be pleasantly surprised if someone else here has read it and remembered it. Whether you know it or not, thanks for at least checking! :) **edit:** I found the book!

First off, nowhere in the bible does Jesus (the son of God) ever reference homosexuality. Anyone who takes quotes from the bible out of context to prove a point needs to read up on what Vatican II says about biblical infallibility. According to the Catholic hierarchy the understanding of scripture is still evolving to better fit God's true will. Anyone can find a quote to suite their argument. If you read the bible literally you cannot reconcile the words of the bible with basic facts about life (eg the earth is not the center of the world!, the world is not 6,000 years old). So I guess my point is people who use quotes in the bible to condemn homsexuality generally pick and choose which passages of the bible they themselves follow. Here are some great quotes to live your life by </sarcasm>: \"If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.\" Exodus 21:20-21 \"For anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood is upon him.\" Leviticus 20:9 So this is a challenge to LGBTReddit to post your favorite absurdly rediculous bible quote!

In this algorithm the user is expected to provide a pass-phrase. The key for each block is a hash of the passphrase + a salt value + the original data from the previous block. The purpose of the hash is to generate a random looking key for each block. Then that key is XOR-ed with the data for the block. The length of each block is the length of the hash value. Example: Suppose the hash function gives 16 bytes. '++' means concatenation. DATA_BLOCK1 = first 16 bytes of data to encrypt BLOCK1_KEY = hash( passphrase ++ salt ) CRYPTED_BLOCK1 = DATA_BLOCK1 XOR BLOCK1_KEY DATA_BLOCK2 = next 16 bytes BLOCK2_KEY = hash( passphrase ++ salt ++ DATA_BLOCK1 ) CRYPTED_BLOCK2 = DATA_BLOCK2 XOR BLOCK2_KEY etc. To increase the safety the hash method for each block is selected from a list of functions (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-384, SHA-512, etc) using a hash of the passphrase+salt+data of previous block. This produces blocks of different lenghts in a way determined by the data, and adds more variety to the keys. Any weaknesses?

During those few years, I learned a tremendous amount about relational databases. I learned how to properly design them and why doing so is critically important. I am absolutely sick of seeing 90% of the programmers I encounter using SQL databases as if they were nothing more than bit buckets. And your fancy new ORMs only compound the problem by further abstracting you away from your choices in schema design. So, please, at a bear minimum, please spend the next 30 minutes learning these few things. You'll become a better programmer because of it. - Understand the \"relational\" part of relational databases. This means that various columns between tables are interlinked using foreign keys]( Doing this will help keep your data consistent by preventing the data in two tables from getting out of sync, so to speak. If you use MySQL this also means you need to stop using the default MyISAM engine and switch to [InnoDB. - Just like your favorite programming language, your database also uses various datatypes. The next programmer who defines a column like this \"is_active VARCHAR(100) DEFAULT 'T'\" is going to get cock punched. For those of you who think you're too smart for this tip, let me ask you this: Are you storing IP addresses as VARCHARs? Why? It's just 32-bit integer written in dotted quad notation. You save yourself almost 4x the storage space by using an INT column. - Understand normalization. Nailing this down will make it easier to figure out in your head how to represent the data you intend to store. Normalizing your data will help reduce redundancy and enhance data consistency. However, sometimes normalizing it to the extreme will affect performance and be a bitch to write code for. - Read up on check constraints. You stick these simple little logic checks on your column definitions and they work wonders at preventing bad data from getting into your DB. I know that you write your code to prevent bad data from getting in, but simple little things like this act as a last line of defense. And when your code is rewritten, refactored, or just plain hosed up by a dumbshit coworker, that last line might be your only line. Thank you.

Use the following statements to disable and enable this feature: Application.ScreenUpdating = False'macro code Application.ScreenUpdating = True You can expect Excel to redraw the screen when the macro completes its work—when you reset the property to True. Disabling screen updates won't disable the Status Bar, which displays information during normal operations, including what your macro is doing. To disable updates to the Status Bar, use the DisplayStatusBar property as follows: Application.ScreenUpdating = False Application.DisplayStatusBar = False'macro code Application.

During the formative years people are taught that this particular phenomena is linked to a linguistic counterpart – the spoken word “red” or undoubtedly with “hot” which as it happens is so because the blackbody radiation spectrum of materials over a certain temperature is what we call both red and hot thus categorizing them. >The idea of a color then is simply its correct categorization, just as all senses are. “Soft” for example cannot be mimicked nor can “loud” accurately in terms of other senses. Asking then how do you describe the color red to a blind man, is a non-sequitur. The material definition of the process is all there is to the process – not being able to translate that to others or to other senses is a result of their specialization and arguably a deficiency of our evolved communication methods. Mind you I have read arguments which are similar in their simplicity and material basis, but none which make the argument that subjective qualia demands an impossible relationship and is thus based on fallacy.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 390, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

All this Distro is, is a custom built Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64 that can run as a Live DVD or be installed, it has all the added packages needed for video, music and web content .eg flash and java, plus I have done a few fixes as well. like fixing wireless problems, gwibber's facebook problem and flash videos in fullscreen. Everything is setup for samba, all you need to do is right click a folder you want to share and add a password in samba using system-config-samba. I have added a Upnp server as well so you can share your music, video's .ect with a PS3, XBOX 360 or any other Upnp media reader.

A South Korean government source also had said that Kim Jong Nam had been murdered in Malaysia. He did not provide further details. South Korea's foreign ministry said it could not confirm the reports, and the country's intelligence agency could not immediately be reached for comment. In Washington, there was no immediate response to a request for comment from the Trump administration, which faces a stiff challenge from a defiant North Korea over its nuclear arms program and the test of a ballistic missile last weekend. Kim Jong Nam was known to spend a significant amount of his time outside North Korea and had spoken out publicly against his family's dynastic control of the isolated state. If confirmed as an assassination, it would the latest in a string of killings over the decades at home and abroad meant to silence those perceived by North Korea's leaders as threats to their authority, one of the U.S. sources said on condition of anonymity. In a statement, Malaysian police said the dead man, 46, held a passport under the name Kim Chol. Kim Jong Nam has been caught in the past using forged travel documents. Malaysian police official Fadzil Ahmat said the cause of Kim's death was not yet known, and that a post mortem would be carried out. \"So far there are no suspects, but we have started investigations and are looking at a few possibilities to get leads,\" Fadzil told Reuters. According to Fadzil, Kim had been planning to travel to Macau on Monday when he fell ill at the low-cost terminal of Kuala Lumpur International Airport. \"The deceased... felt like someone grabbed or held his face from behind,\" Fadzil said. \"He felt dizzy, so he asked for help at the... counter of KLIA.\" Kim was taken to an airport clinic where he still felt unwell, and it was decided to take him to hospital. He died in the ambulance on the way to Putrajaya Hospital, Fadzil added. The U.S. government sources said it was possible that Kim Jong Nam had been poisoned. They said it could not be ruled out that assassins used some kind of \"poison pen\" device. South Korea's TV Chosun, a cable-TV network, reported that Kim had been poisoned with a needle by two women believed to be North", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Christians like to tout this as an example of the power of faith. Alternatively, I like to use it as an example of why God sort of... sucks. Most of you are probably familiar with the story, but the short version is this: There is this guy Job, all around good guy and totally loves God. He has it all, from wealth and land, to a loving family with children. So one day Satan who was banished from Heaven but still knows God's digits gives the big guy a call and says \"You know your boy Job? He only likes you because you're so nice to him. I bet if you bankrupted him, stole his land and killed his entire family he would hate you/not believe in you anymore.\" A simple, taunting tactic from Satan, almost TOO easy to see through... right? At this point, you would think God, being the clever being that he is would side with his Super-Disciple over the Leader of Evil, who also tried to mutiny back in God's hometown of Heaven. You would THINK that God would have told Satan to go eat dicks, because he wasn't falling for that shit. You would think, and hope, that God would not ruin Job's life over some pissing contest with a guy that God knows is bad news. You would be wrong. God takes the bait, fucks Job's life forever and Job still praises the shit out of God. This is because Job is now scared stiff over what God will do to someone that ISN'T a perfectly obedient lapdog. The moral of the story is that no matter how good of a Christian you are over the span of your lifetime, you could still wind up in a living hell if Satan ever calls up God again wondering if he'll take another bet.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 395, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Obviously artistic control is a given but what can we expect the label to pay for vs. what's on us etc * Touring-- Can we book a tour ourselves? Should we spend time doing that instead of searching for a label? The list goes on but this is already getting lengthy. Anything helps. **edit: I'm in an indie band. Ok, that term is generic and played out. I guess more specifically we're influenced by shoegaze, country, and the \"big\" indie bands of the 90s.

The idea I have is this. * Newbie: First time registrant and participator * Banned: Previously signed up, but sent no gift/posted no gift received * Verified/Trusted: Has participated once by at least sending a gift * Veteran: Has participated twice by at least sending a gift * VIP: Site admin/mods/helpers (purely a vanity class, same rank as vet) Why would we want to do this you ask? Well, if we matched users based on classes (the main part that would be a pain to implement I'm sure) that would ensure that those who have previously sent a gift and gotten shafted, will be matched with someone who is verified to have sent a gift previously. From what I've seen, people who receive nothing (or get paperclip'd) haven't signed up again and/or have said they won't be. Knowing however that they'll be matched with someone who DID send something previously, may encourage them to keep participating in future exchanges.

We only pay $500 a month for rent! Then my wife got pregnant. That's about $10,000 in health care costs if everything goes smoothly. If something goes wrong, like you have to get a c-section, you're looking at $15,000+. My job has only been two of us working, and my boss already has his own health insurance (healthy guy, pays very little coincidentally), we didn't have a group insurance plan (I had a $500 per month voucher through the company.

Frankly I am not good at offering consolation, because I am more of a \"c'est la vie\" type of person, and honestly I really don't give much of a shit about my material posessions. So, she said to me \"Why do I always ruin things? I ruined the whole vacation!\" and I replied \"Well, these things happened because you were careless. But it's not the end of the world. When we get home, we'll replace the phone. You can help me pick out a couple of new shirts. We'll find you another skirt. Life goes on. Nothing you have done has ruined the vacation, but focusing on your mistakes when we are supposed to be relaxing is going to ruin things for us. So let's try to forget this and move on.\" Well, she didn't like that and basically told me to leave her alone. So now instead of doing anything fun I am having a beer outside alone while she mopes. To misquote Charles Swindoll, life is 10% shit that happens to me and 90% how I react to it, so to my mind, she is deciding to focus on these things and prefers to spend her time being miserable than getting over this trivial nonsense. She probably doesn't see it that way. Any ideas what I can do to compensate/get over it?", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 406, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

It works wonderfully, I even integrated it with bind9 to automatically create direct and reverse DNS hostnames with a custom TLD and all. But one thing I haven't figured out yet: if the user sets up a static IP on his machine he will have access to the network. Using iptables to filter IP addresses not in the range assigned by dhcpd3 also doesn't help much, because if the user with the IP address 192.168.0.20 is not on the office, that IP address would be still on the allowed list. And when he plugs his computer, we would have a lot of trouble with duplicated addresses and such. A solution where dhcpd3 (or some other DHCP server) runs an external script that calls iptables to unblock the address would be very nice, but I were unable to find a DHCP server that does that. I considered using 802.1X with RADIUS, but I have some printers and IP phones on the network that doesn't support it, so I would need to tell the switches that some ports wouldn't use 802.1X. That opens a hole where they could add small 8-port switches to the network and plug their machines there. Also, the IP phones have an embedded 2-port switch. I know there's something called RADA where you allow specific MAC addresses to circunvent the RADIUS authentication, but my switches doesn't support it unfortunely.

All major politicians have ghostwriters, but Clinton had panels of them. Writers, consultants, script doctors and kibitzers crawl over every page and paragraph of her scripts — sometimes until just minutes before delivery. Where exactly is the candidate herself in all this messaging mélange? Does she have something she really wants to say? Everyone agrees she has plans for every policy problem in the world, but voters want to know what's inside you. And they also want to know what's in it for them. The tone of the Allen-Parnes narrative is unsparing but not unsympathetic, noting campaign flaws and missteps without rue or recrimination. Having collaborated on a book-length profile of Clinton in 2014, the authors extended their research and sources for this insider account. We can readily imagine them setting out to write a very different book about the first woman president. Instead, the authors often seem to be shaking their heads at the unforced errors, internal squabbles and media scrutiny that did in that dream. \"Hillary distributed power so broadly that none of her aides or advisors had control of the whole apparatus,\" they write. We learn that campaign manager Robby Mook, the wunderkind whose heart belongs to data, pushes voter modeling and analytics and models, while pinching pennies on everything else. He clashes with more senior aides who want to invest in more conventional polling, field organizers and yard signs. He also crosses swords with campaign chairman John Podesta, who is twice his age and steeped in official Washington, an intimate advisor to both Clintons and President Obama. We also feel the widely shared exasperation with Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton's longtime confidante. Abedin shields her boss from campaign stress, but also reinforces her penchant for privacy. The mystery of Abedin represents what is remote about Clinton herself. To be sure, such infighting has enlivened accounts of past campaigns, especially in the bestseller Game Change, Mark Halperin and John Heilemann's best-seller about the political personality wars of 2008. But those personalities were more compelling and telegenic, calling out to turn themselves into the TV movie they became.

When I click my Atlanta subreddit, I should see Atlanta-centric ads that cost extra to display. _4) Require logged-in users to have Adblock disabled.

It is a progressively debilitating and often painful disorder in which fluid-filled cysts develop in the kidneys over time. These cysts enlarge the kidneys and impair their ability to function normally, leading to kidney failure in most patients. 3 ADPKD is diagnosed in approximately 140,000 people in the U.S., 4,5 and impacts families across multiple generations, since a parent with ADPKD has a 50 percent chance of passing the disease on to each of their children. 6,7 The efficacy of tolvaptan was demonstrated in two pivotal trials, lasting one year and three years, respectively. In the one-year REPRISE study, the primary endpoint was the treatment difference in the change of eGFR from pretreatment baseline to post-treatment follow-up, annualized by dividing by each subject’s treatment duration. In the randomized period, the change of eGFR from pretreatment baseline to post-treatment follow-up was −2.3 mL/min/1.73 m 2 /year with tolvaptan as compared with −3.6 mL/min/1.73 m 2 /year with placebo, corresponding to a treatment effect of 1.3 mL/min/1.73 m 2 /year (p <0.0001).

We were in Banjul, Gambia, and about to set off on an adventure to Jinack Island. Our pirogue — a large dugout with a muscular motor — awaited us just offshore, bobbing in the Gambia River with a herd of other colorful boats filled with furniture, groceries and people. There was no way we would walk through the mucky beach and water to get to our ride. Clearly, our much-anticipated day excursion to an island paradise was ruined. Suddenly, I was airborne and moving through the water. I let out a gasp and realized I was on the shoulders of a 20-something, bare-chested man, who had, without a word, bent down and lifted me in one fluid move. He swished through the waist-deep river, my shoes never getting wet. As we neared the boat, the water rose to his chest and he gently placed me in the pirogue. I turned to see my friends, Shelley Clark and Barbara Ligeti, on the shoulders of two other men. Shelley's aunt, Alice Taylor, was cradled in the arms of another. Gambia is a nugget of land surrounded by Senegal on three sides and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. The Gambia River runs through it. Banjul, its capital and major port, was the sixth stop on our monthlong cruise of West Africa aboard The Marina, an Oceania ship, with around 900 other passengers. We booked early, in April for a Nov. 3-Dec. 3 vacation, and got a discount rate for verandah suites, which you need on a long voyage. Cost of cruise: around $10,000, including $400 for visas. I found a good business-class fare to our departure city of Lisbon and home from our last port, Cape Town. Oceania offered discounted airfares for coach. This December, Oceania offers a 30-day Africa voyage, Dubai to Cape Town with stops in Kenya, Mozambique and Tanzania, starting at $8,000.

I'll start with a little background story on why I'm here right now. Last night, my girlfriend and I were looking for some new ways to get down. We decided to try the good old Google search. We typed in \"lesbian sex positions.\" We spent about an hour at least being frustrated that there really isn't anything usable out there. We found lesbiankamasutra.com that we could experiment and create our own website or blog about lesbian sex made for queer girls. At this point we're not really sure, because neither of us are sure in how much detail we want to go on the web and write about our sex life, but this could possibly happen. Now here are my questions: * Why does it seem like there is a ton of stuff on the web about sex positions and sex tips for straight people and for gay men? Does the world just think that women don't like sex, or that lesbians don't like sex? Do lesbians not like sex? It's rare that my girlfriend and I go a day without it, and often we do it more than once in a day, so this is something that neither of us really understand. * If there was a good blog or website out there on lesbian sex, would you read it? Would you even find it useful, or do you just not really have sex all that much? What kind of suggestions do you have for this potential endeavor of mine; what type of info would you like to see out there on this subject?

What Catholicism did for me, in part, is give me a framework in which to understand my body as not an accident or a punishment or a mistake, but as the body that I am meant to have and that is constitutive of so much of who I am and what I've done and what I hope I will do in the world.

If so, why is \"to discriminate\" a universally negative word? 5. Similarly, why is \"equality\" a universally positive sounding word? One would say one should treat those to deserve to be treated equally equally (those who do morally equivalent things like building houses or educating children), and that is just equality, while treating those equally who do not deserve to be equally (those who do not do morally equivalent things, like building houses or burning them down) is unjust equality. 6. Doesn't this fashion of \"non-discriminating\" or \"equality\" mean we should refrain from moral judgement: we should not thing there is such a thing as justice or injustice, no such thing as doing good things or bad things? From 1-5 it seems to follow, doesn't it? Isn't the idea of equality or non-discrimnation instead of just and unjust equality, just and unjust discrmination, as a sign of a belief that there is no such thing as justice or injustice, nothing deserved nor not deserved, because there are no moral standards? 7. This could be understandable as moral relativism or moral nihilism or cynicism of the, say, Nietzsche type.

The computer is in an open area where my mom walks by all the time .. so there is that. Limiting her to certain sites isn't acceptable because she loves to explore different web sites. She wants to learn about new things. That being said we will be turning on Google's SafeSearch but I am also wondering if the Linux gurus can suggest something that can: - Filter out porn, hate speech, etc. - Show which sites she visits I know nothing will be 100% foolproof but as we all know there is some bad stuff on the internet. Something that worries me is she might stumble across hate speech. The reason it worries me so much is my sister is engaged to a Chinese man. (We're white) I would really hate for my niece to stumble across some hate site that rails against interracial marriage or something because the guy my sister is engaged to is a super nice guy and treats her wonderfully.

They, at least, got off the ground quick. Do not get me started on the fledgling bureaucracy I see forming in these bizarre council meetings. At the rate things are going, the party *will* decentralize in the near future. With each separate chapter running its own affairs while retaining generally similar stances on issues. This would allow each chapter to control the issue locally, and be in touch with the needs of their specific members. Once these self-sufficient city state-esque groups are established, they can elect to send two representatives to a state level caucus of sorts. If, in the future, we have enough heft, a national caucus could then be held using a similar method (voting two representatives from each state's party.) If we want to make a dent at all, however, we must mobilize now. Stagnation can only harm our cause, and we momentum has to be gained while the iron is still hot. We are not politicians or ego beasts, we are pirates. Let us stop talking and start doing. I vote for decentralization with the eventual goal of a national caucus down the road.

If you allocate your focus as you see fit, and actively choose what you want to focus on, you'll be in command of your mental bandwidth even when faced with unmovable obligations ranging from work to civic duties. SEE: Time management tips for tech professionals (free PDF) (TechRepublic) 3. Do a bandwidth cost/benefit Most of us are awash in meeting requests and accept without question. Everyone complains about excessive meetings, yet it's often a guilty pleasure to summon a group at your whim, or join a discussion under the assumption that your input is necessary and valuable. In the worst case, this might extend to accepting vague requests for \"coffee\" or \"catch-up\" sessions without thinking through whether the commitment is worth the cost in allocating your focus elsewhere. The world is awash in advice on how to make meetings more productive; simply asking yourself whether requesting or attending is worth the cost in mental bandwidth is a great start. 4. Plan for focus time There are tasks that require great focus, whether performing precision or dangerous manual work, or designing a complex system or bit of code. Or, you may need to spend some time with a small group, free from distraction. Book a block in your calendar, shut off your phone, move to a different physical location, or do whatever is required to create the right circumstances to have the necessary focus to get the job done.

Trying to squeeze out the last ounce of mental bandwidth can be tempting in the moment, but it's ultimately an effort with rapidly diminishing returns. Calling it a night, taking that long-delayed vacation, or even the simple act of a quick walk around the office will recharge your mental energy and make you more effective in the long run. 6.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0415", "text": "Some things to know about mass shootings: HOW IS 'MASS SHOOTING' DEFINED? There is no concrete definition of \"mass shooting.\" Most researchers who study mass shootings define it as four or more killed (excluding the shooter) in a public place. They do not count domestic violence cases that take place in the home nor do they include gang-related violence. That is also the definition used by the Congressional Research Service. However, tucked into a law enacted by Congress in 2013 in the immediate aftermath of the Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, to provide federal law enforcement assistance for active shooter situations was a description of mass killings as three or more killed. Some other entities include cases in which four or more people are killed or injured. ARE MASS SHOOTINGS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN? Researchers say the number of mass shootings has remained fairly steady over the past three decades with occasional fluctuations. \"Some years are worse than others and bad years tend to be followed by not so bad years,\" said James Alan Fox, a professor at Northeastern University in Boston who has been studying mass shootings since the early 1980s. However, he and other researchers say it does appear that mass shootings have been deadlier in recent years. Since Sandy Hook, Americans have experienced five of the 10 deadliest mass shootings in modern U.S. history — two of those happening this year alone. WHAT TYPE OF GUNS ARE USED IN MASS SHOOTINGS? Researchers say the majority of mass shootings are carried out with handguns. However, of the 10 deadliest mass shootings in modern U.S. history, half of them had a cache of firearms that included AR-style \"assault weapons,\" one of them included an Uzi submachine gun, and the rest used standard rifles and/or handguns. WHAT WEAPON WAS USED IN THE SANDY HOOK SHOOTING? Adam Lanza, the gunman who killed 20 children and six adults at the school in Newtown, used a Bushmaster XM15. That firearm, made by Remington Arms, is an AR-style of firearm that was designed in a way to avoid being among the firearms prohibited by the decade-long \"assault weapons\" ban. Relatives of the Sandy Hook victims allege in a lawsuit that the maker of the Bushmaster was negligent by marketing military-style weapons to young people who may be unstable and intent on inflicting mass casualties. The lawsuit against Remington Arms was dismissed because of broad immunity granted to the gun industry", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

The things that are counted as ACEs are things like seeing violence in the home, having a parent die, going through a divorce, being a victim of child abuse. So, what the study showed was that besides higher rates of depression and anxiety, there was a very high correlation between the ACEs and physical ailments as well, including things like cancer, heart disease, diabetes. For example, if kids have four or more ACEs, they actually start having neurochemical changes in their brains. And what that can lead to is three times the rate of academic failure, seven times the rate of alcoholism, 12 times the rate of suicide attempts. So those are very depressing outcomes. Add in all the health effects as well, and it gets to be pretty overwhelming. But what the national research also shows is that if we can mitigate trauma at a much earlier age and get people the help and intervention they need, we can really prevent a lot of those long-term health effects from happening to a huge population of people. So, that's why we really wanted to focus on helping kids and changing things in the long term. And of course that has a huge economic value as well, when you look at what we spend on juvenile delinquency programs and health care costs and psychological services costs, all of those things that are impacted down the road. I think we've kind of worked through that part, and now we're focused on, OK, that's a terrible outcome, but there are so many things that can make a difference along the way.

We knew that the awareness-building and school-based efforts would lead to huge referrals, which they did. We saw a 213 percent increase in the number of kids that we served over that time, and we helped nearly 1,000 children through the trauma.

He was advised by the school to avoid being alone with patients while treating their \"sensitive areas,\" but the school did not enforce its request. In March, Strampel told a campus detective and an FBI agent that he did not follow up because having a chaperone in the room for a sensitive exam is \"health care 101.\" At least 12 reported assaults occurred after the investigation ended, according to a university police report that was provided to the FBI for review by the U.S. attorney.

Go is cool, Swift is nifty, but old-school Java keeps reinventing itself to power both yesterday's and tomorrow's applications. Depending on how you count, some 14 million Java programmers code today, with many of them paid well to maintain massive enterprise applications (an estimated 80% of enterprise workloads run on Java). Redmonk, in its latest Q1 2018 survey, says Java is the second-most popular language after JavaScript among developers. Not that Java lacks challenges. For example, Java is perhaps the most divisive technology in the industry—a morass of competing vendors with a constipated governance model that excludes much more than it includes. In this way, Java has left obvious gaps and frustration for developers who need a bridge to a cloud-native future. SEE: Job description: Java developer (Tech Pro Research) To ease that frustration, Tuesday the Eclipse Foundation unveiled new directions for Java EE under the recently-named-by-community-vote Jakarta EE Working Group, the successor to Java EE (which remains licensed by Oracle and maintained under the JCP). Java, cloud-friendly? It just might happen. An open Java The one thing everyone agrees about Java is that it's imperfect. And yet there's hope. No longer your grandparent's Cobol, what if a vibrant community embraced Jakarta EE and pushed it much faster than any Java EE before? Under the Eclipse Foundation's guidance, we may finally get the power of open source collaboration to build on the best of Java's two decades of work. Through this new Jakarta EE Working Group process, we should see big Java EE vendors like IBM, Red Hat, and Oracle working within the open processes of the Eclipse Foundation with smaller vendors like Tomitribe and Payara. In this world, there's no single vendor to impose its will on Java. Instead, we may finally get a true code meritocracy where Java communities and individuals function as peers. Instead of a divisive force, Jakarta EE could become a catalyst to join disparate Java communities behind a shared goal. In this case, my bet is on a race to some version of cloud-native implementation for Jakarata EE.

It would ideally include the instrument(s) we play, the styles we enjoy, a sample of our music (if possible) and the best way to get a hold of eachother.

However, I also think it would be a very useful resource for reddit musicians. Personally, I've had several fruitful e-laborations, and would like to see more of it going on.

In 2009, he was the baby-faced 32-year-old prodigy plucked out of Bill Belichick's roost and Tom Brady's shadow to serve as Mike Shanahan's replacement in Denver, holding down two jobs he'd never had: head coach and de facto general manager. He'd trade away his starting quarterback, draft Tim Tebow and win his first six games, including one against his mentor. But he was fired halfway through his four-year contract, losing 17 of his next 22 games and presiding over his very own videotape scandal. The Broncos blamed themselves for giving McDaniels too much power with so little experience. Denver then embarked on a renaissance under general manager John Elway and Peyton Manning. McDaniels spent a year with the Rams before returning for a highly successful second stint with Brady and Belichick, preparing him for his second NFL head coaching gig with the Indianapolis Colts, which will become official after the Super Bowl. Now 41, McDaniels still doesn't look his age, but he says he is a much wiser than the brash coach who wore the gray hoodie in Denver eight years ago. McDaniels said he was a much better trainee and tutor in his return to New England, much more appreciative of the breadth of Belichick's artistry and the depth of Brady's genius. \"It's a unique perspective,\" seeing things a second time after getting a firsthand look behind the coaching curtain, McDaniels said Wednesday, as he helped Brady and Belichick prepare for their eighth Super Bowl. \"Bill does a tremendous job of understanding the pulse of his team. He relates to everyone very well and I've been able to see that and look at that through a different lens. When we need a push, he pushes us. When we need love, he loves us. When we need a pat on the back, he does that. When we need to run hills, we run hills,\" McDaniels said. \"He just has a tremendous ability to understand when to do what as a head coach. And he serves us in so many ways to make us better coaches, to make the players better players. He's there to help us, he doesn't take it away from us.

On Tuesday, IBM launched IBM Watson Data Kits, designed to speed the development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the enterprise. These apps have the potential to aid in faster, more informed decision making for business leaders, according to a press release. \"Watson Data Kits will provide companies across industries with pre-enriched, machine readable, industry-specific data that can enable them to scale AI across their business,\" the release said. In Q2, Watson Data Kits will become available for the travel, transportation, and food industries, with kits for travel points of interest and food menus. Kits tailored for additional industries are also expected in the coming months, the release noted. SEE: The Power of IoT and Big Data (Tech Pro Research) More than half of data scientists said they spend most of their time on janitorial tasks, such as cleaning and organizing data, labeling data, and collecting data sets, according to a CrowdFlower report, making it difficult for business leaders to implement AI technology at scale. Streamlining and accelerating the development process for AI engineers and data scientists will help companies more quickly gain insights from their data, and drive greater business value, according to IBM. \"Big data is fueling the cognitive era. However, businesses need the right data to truly drive innovation,\" Kristen Lauria, general manager of Watson media and content, said in the release. \"IBM Watson Data Kits can help bridge that gap by providing the machine-readable, pre-trained data companies require to accelerate AI development and lead to a faster time to insight and value. Data is hard, but Watson can make it easier for stakeholders at every level, from CIOs to data scientists.\" The Watson Data Kit for travel points of interest will offer airlines, hotels, and online travel agencies with more than 300,000 points of interest in 100 categories, to create better experiences for travelers, according to the release. Companies in the travel and transportation industry can use the kits to build AI-powered web and mobile apps to help users find information on points of interest in a given area.

Recently, a Google engineer was fired after releasing a controversial memo stating women don't advance in the tech industry because of biological differences. Page uses this issue to shed light on how companies can manage free expression in the workplace. SEE: Employee political activity policy (Tech Pro Research) In the situation of the Google memo, the employee was fired not because he broke a law, but because he broke a company policy. \"When people talk about having open discourse and people being able to be free to express their opinions, what they mean is about 'how to develop a product' or 'how to address company services,' Page said. \"They want to have alternative points of view around making the best possible product.\" This freedom of expression in the workplace isn't an excuse to get into political debates, and most companies don't want you to do that, she said. It also becomes a liability issue for a company when its employees make derogatory comments about their colleagues—especially in an environment where collaboration is critical—because it affects employees' comfort levels and deters the best talent. SEE: Hostile workplace prevention policy (Tech Pro Research) Page suggested that companies of every size should have a code of conduct about internal and external communications. Companies need have policies in place about the type of speech that's appropriate for their employees about their colleagues. Employees should also know that they represent the company when talking about anything relevant to their industry. \"This should be normal for companies and employees to understand,\" she said. Page said that all companies with over 50 employees should have an HR manager. Once a company reaches that size, there are a lot more policies and regulations that need to be put in place. \"There are baseline HR things that you should do at every company, that's the biggest lesson, and if you're not doing them, you're missing out.\" Discover the secrets to IT leadership success with these tips on project management, budgets, and dealing with day-to-day challenges.

Then I could just use imagemagick and a bash for-loop to convert the stack of SVGs to JPG.

I have an API where users need to call a certain method on an object, and the object has multiple users. I'd like to make it easier to debug which user is responsible when some user hasn't called the method. The naive approach is to have the users pass in their name as a string to the method and have the object record which users have the called the method. Then to debug, look at the list the object recorded versus the total list of users and take the difference. This might make sense for one object, but it has O(n) memory cost where n is the number of users. So here's my idea. Give each user a UID number. Instead of passing in a string, they pass in their UID. The object stores a fixed-size hash of the UID. The next time an object calls the method, the object stores a hash of the combination of the old hash and new UID. When it comes time to debug (which it's perfectly acceptable to be a slow process), given knowledge of all the users UIDs, we can compute which combination of hashes would lead to the current stored value, and then we now have a list of users that called the method. Or we might have a couple of candidate lists sometimes depending on the quality of the hash, but that would at least narrow things down. The problem is I have no idea how to go about choosing a hash. Ideally hashing the same UIDs in any order would result in the same hash so as to reduce the number of combinations we have to try to figure out the real list. And ideally it would minimize the number of possible lists corresponding to any particular final hash so as to most greatly narrow the possible problematic users.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 365, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

You may not agree with all of his policy or personal preferences, but you know that Roy Moore is going to do what Roy Moore believes.\" That's why it was so, well, strange last week when Trump tweeted out his support for Strange, saying the incumbent has his \"complete and total endorsement!\" The senator has benefited from millions of dollars in ads from the McConnell-aligned Senate Leadership Fund super PAC. The very next day after endorsing Strange, Trump started going on Twitter tirades against the GOP Senate leader for failing to pass a bill to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. Strange has tried to prove his loyalty to the president ever since he was appointed under less than auspicious circumstances. As Alabama's attorney general, Strange was investigating then-Gov. Robert Bentley for misuse of his office amid a sex scandal when Bentley chose Strange to replace Sessions. Facing impeachment, Bentley eventually resigned, and the new governor, Kay Ivey, moved up the date for the special election to replace Sessions long-term. Polling done in the wake of Trump's surprise endorsement showed that the president's blessing had done little — yet — to move the needle toward Strange. One by cygnal, Buchanan's firm, conducted partly after the endorsement, showed Moore still with a lead and high favorables, Strange remained static and it was Brooks who took a hit. Buchanan said the Trump endorsement could help Strange turn out some who were less likely to vote on Tuesday, which could be key in what's already expected to be a very low-turnout affair. And the pro-Trump America First Action super PAC also announced late Friday it would be spending up to $200,000 on digital ads targeting Trump voters to encourage them to come out for Strange. However, although he's slipping in polling, Brooks is hoping to turn McConnell's fervent support for Strange into a last-ditch way to get into the likely runoff against Moore. He's hitched a \"Ditch Mitch\" banner to his campaign bus in the final days, and in his closing ad he echoes Trump's frustration with McConnell's inability to push through an Obamacare repeal. \"McConnell and Strange are weak, but together we can", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Do the spores die too? * What happens when a human ingests butter made with this mold/spores, dead or alive? * Should he dry it out at a low temperature to kill off the mold first? Is that going to make the spores (more) airborne? * When the mold feeds on the weed, does it destroy the THC? If it's really moldy but still structurally intact for the most part, is there enough THC in there to make this worthwhile? * Would it be better to use alcohol to bind the THC first? Can he then boil away the alcohol and get oil, which he can then boil in butter? Would this convoluted method work at all? Any and all help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

(NYSE: HUM) is teaming up with home-based medical care company Landmark to offer an in-home medical, behavioral and palliative care coordination program for Humana Medicare Advantage members with multiple chronic conditions in seven states. The program gives patients the opportunity to receive quality care in the privacy and comfort of a residential setting. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180424005029/en/ Landmark physicians and advanced practice providers (Complexivists®) utilize an integrated care model to treat the whole patient. The company also employs pharmacists, nurses, social workers, behavioral health clinicians, and dieticians to provide care management in support of, and in coordination with, the patient’s existing primary care physician - Landmark does not replace patients’ regular doctors, but augments their care plans in the home. The program will be available to eligible Humana Medicare Advantage HMO and PPO members with complex health needs - due to multiple chronic conditions such as diabetes, coronary heart disease, cancer, and end-stage renal disease – who live in select counties in Washington (starting in May); Kansas and Missouri (starting in June); Kentucky and Ohio (starting in July); and Louisiana and Mississippi (starting in August). Available services will include urgent house-call visits 24 hours a day, seven days a week; maintenance visits to proactively monitor conditions; post-hospital discharge visits to assist with transition back into the home; and continuity-of-care in coordination with the patient’s primary care physician or specialist. “This is a very exciting opportunity for Landmark for two key reasons,” said Landmark Chief Business Officer Eric Van Horn. “First, we are aligned in our beliefs that clinical excellence and coordinated care will help people reach their best health outcomes. Second, Humana offers us the opportunity to reach more chronically-ill patients with the type of care we’d want for our own loved ones.” “We’re pleased to work with Landmark to bring this kind of coordinated, at-home care model to our Medicare Advantage members for the first time,” said Humana Health Guidance Organization Vice President Chuck Stemple, D.O. “This collaboration will provide care in a comforting setting with the benefit of an entire care team working in coordination", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Would you estimate, given my experience, that 2 hits would be any harder than 2.5 grams of *Psilocybe cubensis*? My first instinct is to take the cautious approach: just 1 hit. But I've been hearing a lot of reports about weak acid lately. Is there any merit to this? Also, a sidenote: our guy says it's \"triple-dipped.\" Sounds like a marketing gimmick? Everything I've read on erowid says that trying to do a booster dose partway through the trip is a waste, so that rules out \"testing the waters\". Not wanting to waste both tabs to 2 weak trips, I am tempted to just go for it and risk a difficult trip.

For details please check I actually have a couple of things to point out before I get to the questions. 1) Why do people assume that the relation between revenues and the tax rates (which the Laffer curve supposedly represents) is a smooth (i.e., continuous and differentiable) one to one concave function with a single maximum somewhere between a tax rate of 0 and 100%? 2) Take a look at what is often called the neo laffer curve Note that the Neo Laffer curve is a satirical construct, but the point Martin Gardner was making with this curve is that the relationship between revenues and tax rates might be very complicated. So complicated in fact, that a simple 2-D graph does not account for all the variables and/or randomness and/or memory in the system. If this is indeed the case (and I haven't come across a convincing argument that this isn't so), then the Laffer curve is a gross oversimplification. I don't deny that it is reasonable to say that tax revenues will be zero when tax rates are 0 and 100%. The continuity and differentiability is probably ok as well. However, all the other assumptions (one to one, concavity, memorylessness) need more rigorous justification. What I want to know from the economics subreddit is a) How much faith do real economists have that the Laffer curve is valid? b) If economists accept that the Laffer Curve is a gross oversimplification, why is it still being used to formulate economic policy? As an example, it provides justification for the reactionary Republican opposition to any tax increase, no matter how small. It is also responsible for trickle down economics and all the bad policies that go with it. Using this gross oversimplification seems to have done more harm than good for the American economy. c) If you believe the Laffer curve is valid, can you provide more rigorous reasoning for why it is so?", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 424, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Now, it also has sensors on the referees, first down markers, and end zone pylons. How to fully take advantage of all this data and convert it into value for the NFL and its customers was the big challenge.

I have 3 or 4 shirts that I've been waiting for this specific pay period to order, and now it appears the \"shirt\" tab is completely gone. I realize that shirt creation probably wasn't the most commonly used function on the site, but I was wondering...was the shirt link purely an option for users to create a shirt for themselves at the same cost it would be by going directly to the shirt company, or was there a slight profit margin involved for the reddit team? I'm asking because I know that many shirts have been designed and purchased via the link in question. I don't recall off the top of my head what the price for a shirt was, but I want to say $20 sounds right. If this was the case (or whatever the price was), I would personally be glad to pay $25 instead if I was told that $5 of the total cost would be going to fund the reddit admin team. I'm not sure what effect this markup would have on sales, but I like to imagine that most of us redditors don't mind chipping in a few extra dollars for merchandise, specifically if those dollars were going towards keeping Reddit up and running. That's about all, I suppose. I'm just wondering if the lack of shirt links was a byproduct of the crash, or if it was removed due to lack of activity/cost of keeping the link active. If it was a cost thing, I'd gladly offer my professional services (I'm a financial analyst) in determining a proper profit margin and markup percentage on a per-shirt sale to monthly sales figures ratio comparison.

What I have done is stashed them in the freezer until I can encapsulate them in a liquid plastic resin. I have talked to a couple of plastics and acrylic company representatives. There have been several concerns. 1. I need to create a mold that is 2\" wide x 16\" long x 6\" height. 2. I can't lay the comb down horizontally or the resin will not fill the cells. 3. The amount of heat generated in pouring that much resin will create so much heat the beeswax will melt. 4. Pouring that much all at once and it is likely to crack. 5. The resin will shrink or deform. 6. I have been told that if I pour it in small sections like a 1/2 an inch at a time. That it may be the way to go the problem is still the heat and that if the first layer hardens to much it will create a line. Recommendations I have received. Soak the comb in denatured alcohol for two days to remove as much moisture content as possible. Find a cold based clear resin that doesn't generate the heat. Coat the comb with resin first. The problem with this that I see is that it will create thousands of lines and refract light so you can't see into the cells which is the whole point. So my questions are this: 1. Is there such a thing as a cold based clear resin? 2. If there is no cold based resin is there a way I could do this with out melting the comb or having a bunch of lines or a cracked or warped resin display block? 3. Is there another way I could do this.

Since lead was banned in paint and phased out of gasoline nearly 40 years ago, average childhood blood lead levels have fallen more than 90 percent. The average is now around 1 microgram per deciliter. Yet progress has been uneven, and lead poisoning remains an urgent problem in many U.S. communities. A Reuters investigation published this month found nearly 3,000 areas with recently recorded lead poisoning rates of at least 10 percent, or double those in Flint, Michigan, during that city's water crisis. More than 1,100 of these communities had a rate of elevated blood tests at least four times higher than in Flint. In the worst-affected urban areas, up to 50 percent of children tested in recent years had elevated lead levels. The CDC has estimated that as many as 500,000 U.S. children have lead levels at or above the current threshold. The agency encourages \"case management\" for these children, which is often carried out by state or local health departments and can involve educating families about lead safety, ordering more blood tests, home inspections or remediation. Any change in the threshold level carries financial implications. The CDC budget for assisting states with lead safety programs this year was just $17 million, and many state or local health departments are understaffed to treat children who test high. Another concern: Many lead testing devices or labs currently have trouble identifying blood lead levels in the 3 micrograms per deciliter range. Test results can have margins of error. \"You could get false positives and false negatives,\" said Rad Cunningham, an epidemiologist with the Washington State Department of Health. \"It's just not very sensitive in that range.\" The CDC doesn't hold regulatory power, leaving states to make their own decisions on how to proceed. Many have yet to adapt their lead poisoning prevention programs to the last reference change, implemented four years ago, when the level dropped from 10 to 5 micrograms per deciliter. Other states, including Virginia and Maine, made changes this year. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is close to adopting a rule requiring an environmental inspection—and lead cleanup if hazards are found—in any public housing units where a young child tests at or above the CDC threshold. If the CDC urges public health action under a new threshold, HUD said it will follow through. \"The only thing that will affect our policy is the CDC recommendation for environmental intervention,\" said Dr. Warren Friedman, with", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I emailed the organization last weekend and they got back to me and showed a document I signed saying I would be responsible for 50% of the fee even if I cancelled at this time. In another week it will be 75% regardless. At this point I could still go abroad, paying a fuckton in loans for the next couple years, or pay $8,000 for nothing. What say you, reddit?? Edit: I should add that when I come back home this december I will have to take out 5,000 in loans to finish school instead of graduating. When the prospect of 3,000 in subsidized federal loans, then 10,000 in unsubsidized 9.75% loans came up it really hit home how much I would have to pay. Upon my return my parents will basically cut me off and Ill have to pay another 5,000 in low interest loans to finish up school. All this instead of graduating this December with no loans.

Here are the big takeaways: Overall, iPhone X users gave the product a 97% customer satisfaction rating. — Creative Strategies, 2018 Despite overall customer satisfaction with the iPhone X, device owners had problems with Siri, leaving the digital assistant with a roughly 20% customer satisfaction rating. — Creative Strategies, 2018 For years Apple has responded to complaints about the functionality of Siri and as more virtual assistants have popped up from their rivals, users continue to grumble about the things it cannot do. That was one of the biggest takeaways from a study of iPhone X users conducted by Creative Strategies, Inc. Ben Bajarin, principal analyst and the head of primary research, said in the report that iPhone X owners gave the product \"an overall 97% customer satisfaction. While that number is impressive, what really stands out when you do customer satisfaction studies is the percentage who say they are very satisfied with the product,\" Bajarin wrote. In terms of the survey respondents who met that \"very satisfied\" mark, the report found it to be about 85% of iPhone X owners. SEE: IT leader's guide to the future of artificial intelligence (Tech Pro Research) But when the report authors broke it down by specific features, Siri stood out as one of the only things users were not happy with. Every other feature had a customer satisfaction percentage above 60%. Siri was the only feature below that mark at about 20%. This figure is more prominent, Bajarin said, because their survey focused on early Apple adoptees, who he said \"tend to be more critical and less satisfied overall than mainstream consumers.\" This is good for Apple because of the very high marks almost every other feature received in the survey. But Siri's very low score dovetails with the years of complaints users have had with how Siri functions. The Street's Leon Lazaroff wrote that Siri's main problem is a consumer base expecting it to function like other virtual assistants, which it cannot do because it was designed for a very specific purpose. \"Siri's job is to integrate those devices, it's meant to grease the connections between Apple devices, making the iPhone integral to the iPad, AppleWatch and AppleTV — and all points in between,\" Lazaroff wrote. \"The problem for Apple is that people have come to expect a voice-activated device that can answer relatively easy questions fast and efficiently, and Siri...has mostly fallen", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I don't just mean slow web pages, which I would attribute to a bad internet connection, but lag between switching tabs in Firefox, seconds-long lag typing characters in the text field in Twitter, etc. Disabling javascript in the browser seems to solve the problem (as long as I don't need javascript for anything). I tried both upgrading and downgrading Firefox and it made no difference. Seems to happen more often in the afternoon than in the morning, which makes me wonder if it's an AVG virus scan or Mozy backup taking place, but I have not been able to establish correlation there. Might just be coincidence. I have looked at the processes running during the laggy performance and not been able to find an obvious culprit. I know I should take this computer back to where I purchased it, but in my experience that usually results in being without a computer for a week and no solution at the end of it.

I was just thinking of this while reading a response to another comment and thought someone here might enjoy it. People often respond to criticism of the police system with, \"Not all cops are bad.\" to which my response has come to be one of apathy. I don't care if a cop is good or bad. In my opinion they are all corrupt in at least one sense. Some police are corrupted by active abuse of the authority they are given. These abuses are virtually always covered up by other police or responded to with punishments that are inappropriately lenient. This makes the police system corrupt because the superiors are either inadequate in their oversight or compliant with the abuses. I've met police that I have been very polite, professional and everything that I would like in a law enforcing, civil servant. As much as I would like to think otherwise, I know that these people are almost inevitably on their way to one of two situations. They are either going to have their seemingly respectable ethics compromised to ever increasing degrees or they are going to be out of a job. There is the remote possibility that they rise to a point where they have the authority to make significant changes in the accountability of abusive police while still having the credibility to enforce them, but I don't know of this ever happening.

The government had until Monday to take two steps under a law passed by Congress last year in the wake of the 2016 presidential campaign. The first required the U.S. to slap sanctions on anyone doing \"significant\" business with people linked to Russia's defense and intelligence agencies, using a blacklist the U.S. released in October. The second required the administration to publish a list of Russian \"political figures and oligarchs\" who have grown rich under President Vladimir Putin. On the first item, the administration decided it didn't need to penalize anyone, even though several countries have had multibillion-dollar arms deals with Russia in the works. State Department officials said the threat of sanctions had been deterrent enough, and that \"sanctions on specific entities or individuals will not need to be imposed.\" \"We estimate that foreign governments have abandoned planned or announced purchases of several billion dollars in Russian defense acquisitions,\" said State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert. She did not provide evidence or cite any examples. On the second item — the \"Putin list\" — the day came and went with no sign of if or when it would be released. The Treasury Department did not respond to several inquiries. In the past, the administration has breezed past several such deadlines, including the October deadline to produce a blacklist, only to follow through later after pressure from Congress mounted. By itself, being on the Putin list doesn't trigger U.S. sanctions. Yet the list, being developed by the Treasury Department, has induced fear among rich Russians who are concerned that it could lead later to U.S. sanctions or to being informally blacklisted in the global financial system. It has triggered a fierce lobbying campaign, with Russia hawks in Congress pushing the administration to include certain names and lobbyists hired by Russian businessmen urging the administration to keep their clients off. Companies or foreign governments that had been doing business with blacklisted Russian entities had been given a three-month grace period to extricate themselves from transactions, starting in October when the blacklist was published and ending Monday. But only those engaged in \"significant transactions\" are to be punished, and the United States has never defined that term or given a dollar figure.

In addition to yours, I have received well over 25,000 emails, letters, Facebook messages, faxes and phone-calls from everyday Canadians who want their elected officials to heed the call for fair copyright legislation in Canada for users, creators and innovators – NOT just the U.S. music and film industry lobbies. Make no mistake, your emails and letters have made a huge impact. Without the enormous groundswell of support for fair copyright, the Conservatives never would have undertaken the consultation process that they did. Will they listen to what they heard? That remains to be seen. A factor that threatens the development of fair copyright in Canada is the ongoing Anti-Counterfeiting Treaty Agreement (ACTA) negotiations. These talks have been conducted under a heavy veil of secrecy that excludes citizen engagement, denies public or media oversight, and undermines domestic copyright laws like those currently being considered in many countries around the world, including Canada. Please read on for more info, but I want to make sure you take this opportunity to add your voice to those opposed to the ACTA secrecy. If you’re on Facebook, please join this group and ask your contact list to do the same: #. Documents that have leaked from the talks show that negotiators are hammering out a deal that would criminalize internet users. It would require ISPs to spy on individual internet use and shut down access to content based any potential allegation of infringement. The most sinister of these is the “three strikes” proposal. It sets out that anyone who is accused – NOT convicted – of illegal downloading three times is summarily disconnected from the internet and prevented from obtaining another account.

As a developer at Videosurf, I work to index the video content available on the web, enhanced with computer vision. We have had Firefox and Chrome extensions out for awhile now, but they have generally been geared towards enhancing search results on various sites with visual summaries, as well as other minor site specific enhancements. However, I found that myself and friends of mine consume a large amount of internet video through sites like reddit, rather than google or yahoo, so I had our extension developer add support for visual summaries on reddit video links. The results are sprites and thumbnail video strips for any video link on reddit that we have analyzed. And if we haven't analyzed the video yet, the links get added to our processing pipeline and should be available within the day for supported video sites. A couple of caveats to point out: 1. Currently, this is only supported in the Chrome version of the extension. If there are requests, I will gladly push adding reddit to the Firefox version. 2. The extension does make API calls back to our site to look up the video links on reddit pages you are viewing, but we don't store any specific identifiable user data, such as a reddit username.

Lee. Controversies over Confederate symbols have been brewing around the country — most notably in South Carolina, where the Confederate flag was lowered from the state house grounds two years ago, and New Orleans, where statues came down earlier this year. But in Charlottesville, the movement to remove a Lee statue and the backlash that followed have become particularly intense thanks to an ongoing court battle and questions over whether the city council has the authority to remove it. Now, the planned removal of the statue became a rallying cause for the alt-right — and symbol of growing discontent. One hundred years ago, in 1917, the 26-foot-high statue was commissioned by a philanthropist and given to the city along with the surrounding land in honor of his parents. The statue took seven years and three sculptors (the first one died) to complete. According to the city of Charlottesville's website, the statue was unveiled in 1924 by 100 cadets from the Virginia Military Institute who \"paraded through the center of Charlottesville decorated with Confederate colors.\" The new statue was also reportedly greeted with loud cheers and a speech by then-president of \"the University of Virginia Edwin Alderman and followed by parties and balls. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. The registration form from the Department of the Interior states that the sculpture \"remains undisturbed in its original location. Charlottesville will undoubtedly keep it there, for the monument is a unique to the most eminent Confederate hero of all and an outstanding example of the outdoor sculpture of the late City Beautiful movement.\" It is now doubtful — though still possible — that Charlottesville will \"keep it there.\" In February, the city council voted 3-2 to sell the statue, ignoring the recommendation of a commission that suggested moving it. A group called Virginia's Sons of Confederate Veterans sued the city, alleging it did not have the right to remove the statute since it was a war memorial. A related group, and others, filed a lawsuit in New Orleans to block the removal of a Gen. Lee statue as well as one of Jefferson Davis. A federal appeals court said that city could remove its Confederate monuments. City Councilor Bob Fenwick, who cast a tie-breaking vote in Charlottesville in April (that vote allowed the city to sell the statue), hoped the city council's action would put", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Her response was that her personal problems and our relationship problems together make her unsure of any future and that if we worked on the relationship she couldn't say for sure that we would still stay together.

Google ceased scanning consumer Gmail messages to personalize ads to users in June last year, a point that Frey stressed in her post yesterday. \"We do not process email content to serve ads, and we are not compensated by developers for API access. Gmail's primary business model is to sell our paid email service to organizations as a part of G Suite.\" Public awareness of privacy issues has been heightened recently, following the Cambridge Analytica scandal, in which the data firm was accused of using the personal information of millions of Facebook users to try to change election results. Despite Google's assurances, David Emm, principal security researcher at Kaspersky Lab, says the WSJ's findings show how important it is for individuals and businesses to pay close attention to the permissions they give third-party apps. \"We have a right to privacy - but we need to be aware of what terms and conditions we are agreeing to when signing up for free email and social-media accounts, especially regarding the rights we are waiving or the access to data that we are giving away,\" he said. \"We should also think twice before allowing third-party apps to connect to our accounts.\" The big takeaways for tech leaders: G Suite admins can screen connected OAuth apps to limit the data access that individual users are able to grant. Those concerned about third-party access to their Gmail account can visit myaccount.google.com and select the Apps with account access page, from which they can revoke any previously-granted permissions.

Thats not a bad thing, in fact i find it rather refreshing. The medic is by far my favorite class so far and i find it the most satisfying class although it seems like i am the only person in the games to actually be reviving people. I realize that this is just a beta, but it seems really buggy. Also, my games seem to crash a lot or i lose connection to the EA online thing. Does this happen to anybody else on the PC version? Could it be because i dont have the best internet access or the best computer? Does anybody know exactly what they will be changing from the beta when the game releases? I know there will be more maps and gametypes, but will there be more classes/weapons/equiptment? It wouldnt be a problem if there isnt due to the customization of the classes, just curious. This is my first Battlefield game, and i am very excited for the release of the full game. Too bad my computer is only OK and i wont be able to play the game on high settings in all of its glory.

Here are the big takeaways: Individuals can get access to all of their data from a given firm, including their employer, by filing a subject access request. The GDPR will eliminate the cost for subject access requests and shorten the required response time from 40 days to 30. The May 25 deadline for the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is fast-approaching, and the coming changes will greatly shift the ability of companies to interact with customer data. Many people know the GDPR for its hard-line regulation around the \"right to be forgotten,\" where an individual can request a company to erase the personal data it holds on them. However, it also contains the right to access any information that may be held by a company, including your employer. The process for data access under GDPR will be mostly the same as it was under the Data Protection Act of 1998, but with a few slight differences. For starters, a person will need to file a subject access request (SAR) that, as noted by the Guardian, is simply \"an email, fax or letter asking for their personal data.\" SEE: EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) policy (Tech Pro Research) For clear guidelines on submitting an SAR, see the Subject access code of practice from the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). There is no particular format required, as long as the request is made in writing. There are two key differences between SAR requests made under the Data Privacy Act and those made under GDPR: The cost and time frame. Before GDPR, the maximum fee that could be charged for access to your data was £10, or about $14. Under GDPR, however, that fee is being removed for standard requests. Although, the ICO also notes that a firm may charge a \"reasonable fee\" when \"a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive.\" According to SAR guidelines from the ICO, an individual should have the personal data held on them described, be told whether their personal data is being processes, be told why it's being processed, be told if that data is being sent anywhere else, and be given a copy the data and details of its sourcing. The other detail that will change with personal data access under GDPR is how long companies have to respond to your request. Under the Data Privacy Act, companies had 40 calendar days to respond once they received a request.

In fact, law enforcement was standing passively by, waiting for violence to take place, so that they would have grounds to declare an emergency, declare an 'unlawful assembly' and clear the area.\" Charles Ramsey, who formerly headed the police in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., told the Post that demonstrators and counter-demonstrators \"need to be in sight and sound of each other, but somebody has to be in between....

My goal was to sift through the chaff and find something that would key me into understanding what was at the core of the PH-1. It didn't take long for a common thread to bubble up from the surface. That thread? A less-than stellar camera. The good news for me was that I don't consider a smartphone's primary function to be taking photos, so having the best camera available wasn't a top priority. With that out of the way, it seemed the PH-1 met all of my needs, and did so at a price point that was right on the money. And thus, I made the purchase, and set aside my OnePlus 3 to embark on a journey with the newest underdog. As many of you know, I'm a big fan of the underdog. I've been using Linux as my primary OS for decades, so I'm accustomed to watching a platform scrape and dig for attention and respect. However, after just two weeks of use, I'm convinced the PH-1 shouldn't be considered an underdog but a top dog, in a class by itself. That's not to say it's perfect because it's not, but no device is (and anyone who believes otherwise is kidding themselves). Now that I've had plenty of time to experience Essential's first foray into the smartphone market, I feel like I have plenty to say about the device. And, with that said, let's dive into the good and the bad. SEE: Mobile device computing policy (Tech Pro Research) The bad I thought I'd flip the script and start with the bad. Why? Because there isn't much in the way of bad to be found. In fact, I have to trick myself into thinking \"Maybe photos are more important than I originally thought!\" before I can really come up with something negative of note to say about the PH-1. It has been well documented that the Essential Phone's camera is lackluster. The software is a bit slow, and the low-light photos are far from great. The selfie camera also suffers from the software issues that hinder the main camera. However, after four updates (that's right, four updates since I received the device, more on that in a bit), I've watched the camera app improve exponentially.

After the Cuban Revolution, then-President Dwight Eisenhower insisted the status of the base remained unchanged, despite Fidel Castro's objections. Since then, the Cuban government has cashed only one of the rent checks from the U.S. government, and even then only because of \"confusion\" in the early days of the leftist revolution, according to Castro. The remaining uncashed checks made out to \"Treasurer General of the Republic\" (a title that ceased to exist after the revolution) are kept in Castro's office stuffed into a desk drawer. The United States argues that the cashing of the single check signifies Havana's ratification of the lease — and that ratification by the new government renders moot any questions about violations of sovereignty and illegal military occupation. It is countered, however, that the 1903 and 1934 lease agreements were imposed on Cuba under duress and are unequal treaties, no longer compatible with modern international law, and voidable ex nunc pursuant to articles 60, 62, and 64 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties.

I don't fully understand what their thinking is in asking, but I would like to avoid any more school for at least a few years, as it does not pay well enough. My degree may qualify me for forestry type work which is good pay for a recent graduate($40-50k/year).

For two years, Mathabire and a team explored how easily health clinics and hospitals in the Chiradzulu District of Malawi and the Chamanculo District of Mozambique could implement the tuberculosis test for HIV patients, who are more susceptible to the infection. In Malawi and Mozambique, HIV is the leading cause of death. It is often spread through unprotected sex, and it has wiped out 27 percent of Malawi's and 24 percent of Mozambique's populations according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Finding out whether an HIV-positive person has tuberculosis is a matter of life and death. Mathabire remembers a Malawi man in his early 30s who left a clinic untreated. The rapid test, which analyzes a molecule in the patient's urine with a paper strip, had shown that he had TB. A coughing test didn't. But doctors weren't referring patients for the rapid test in their assessment of the man. It hadn't yet been approved by the Ministry of Health which was awaiting the World Health Organization's policy guidance. The man died before he could go back to get help. His story wasn't unique, Mathabire says. \"It's very sad but then you realize why you are doing the study — to prevent this from happening,\" she says. \"You start to realize the urgency of what you are doing.\" Under normal circumstances, patients are given cough tests or chest X-rays to test for TB. Mathabire's team found that it takes an average of two to four days for results, but the wait could drag on for months. Though the government of Malawi pays for certain medical care, including tuberculosis treatment, patients might not have the money to pay for a bus ride to the hospital or clinic for follow-up visits. And more remote clinics don't always have the resources to transport samples to hospitals. With the rapid TB test, sick patients could begin treatment the same day. Mathabire's data showed that the test provided results in less than an hour. Staff in Malawi and Mozambique could be trained to administer the test in just a few hours. And doctors, nurses and clinical officers said it was easy to interpret the bands on the test strips. Mathabire also found that patients weren't skeptical of a new method.

According to blog post, CVE-2017-0199 traditionally utilizes RTF documents, and this is the first time it has been seen to abuse PowerPoint Slide Show in the wild. The malware comes in an email that appears to be from a company that manufactures cables. The email tells the recipient to see the order and asks for them to quote cost, insurance, and freight (CIF) and free on board (FOB) prices as well. Due to the targeted nature of the email, as the criminals are typically going after electronics companies, the post said, the email is being considered a spear phishing attack. In the sample email provided by Trend Micro, the attachment is titled PO-483848.ppsx. In that case, PO could be short for purchase order, in an effort to increase the perceived legitimacy of the PowerPoint file. SEE: 10 ways to minimize fileless malware infections If the victim opens the attached file, there will be no purchase order, not even any fake text attempting to be one. It simply reads: CVE-2017-8570. That's the name of another Microsoft vulnerability, the post said, but not the one that this particular malware is targeting. PowerPoint then initializes a script moniker and runs the malicious payload, the post said. If successful, it will download an XML file from the internet. Some JavaScript code in that XML file runs a PowerShell command that downloads and executes a remote access tool. At this point, the attackers will be able to run remote commands on the victim's machine. \"The tool's capabilities are quite comprehensive, and includes a download & execute command, a keylogger, a screen logger, and recorders for both webcam and microphone,\" the post said. The biggest issue for this given attack is the fact that it comes by way of a PowerPoint file. Most current detection methods focus on the RTF delivery method, so that means attackers utilizing the PPSX files could have an easier time avoiding antivirus detection, the post said. To protect against attacks like this one, businesses should make sure that their systems are properly patched and updated to account for any known vulnerabilities.

Providing that answer is the mission accepted by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes in Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign. It is by no means the last word on 2016, but Allen and Parnes must be regarded as early front-runners in the race to make sense of it all. They saw and heard far more than most of us, exploring deep inside \"Clintonworld\" in search of the real story. And in these pages, they share enough of what they witnessed to enable us to reach our own conclusions. There is no Big Reveal, no shocking secret answer. Instead we get a slow-building case against the concept and execution of the Clinton campaign, with plenty of fault falling squarely on the candidate herself. Far from a juggernaut, the campaign we see in these pages is plagued with division, unease and anxiety practically from the outset.

Among those wounds, the first cut is the deepest. The email stories that began in March 2015 never go away. First, it's Clinton's own private server, then the hacking of the Democratic National Committee and the endless email dump stolen from campaign chairman John Podesta. Email becomes the cyber-incubus the campaign cannot shed. Whether anyone with Trump connections was colluding or complicit in the Wikileaks-Russian caper or not, the continual media focus on email issues could scarcely have been more convenient for the Trump campaign. The authors also see lasting damage inflicted by her Democratic-primary rival Bernie Sanders' challenge from the left. Sanders' rather quixotic campaign not only tested Clinton, it played perfectly into Trump's own critique of \"crooked Hillary\" and his tactic of tying her to globalism and Wall Street. \"For both sides, Hillary was the perfect symbol of everything that was wrong with America,\" the authors conclude. \"At times, Trump and Sanders would act as the right and left speakers of a stereo blaring a", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

I was thinking it was time to learn a new language, and was wondering what language you would use these days if you wanted to write a MUD from scratch. I know MUD's, and figured writing one would be an entertaining way to learn some language.

Applied behavior analysis is now widely used in the shaping of verbal behavior in children with autism or with developmental delays. All such work is rooted in behavioral principles, and some of it is even explicitly guided by Skinner's interpretation of verbal behavior. (Whether that guidance confers an advantage relative to other behavioral approaches is uncertain, pending programmatic research; Carr &amp; Firth, 2005.) I am aware of no one who appeals to Chomsky's analysis of grammar in this context. It appears, then, that the utility of a behavioral approach in the domain of verbal behavior is not “precisely zero,” as Chomsky asserted (p. 248). Perhaps Chomsky would take refuge in the claim that autistic children are atypical, that normal children do not require the careful arrangement of contingencies of reinforcement to learn, and that this only underscores his argument that language simply “unfolds” in the child, triggered by exposure to critical examples, irrespective of reinforcement contingencies. But reinforcement contingencies are ubiquitous, and all children profit when they are favorably arranged. One behaviorally designed Internet-based reading program can teach most children to read in under 30 hr of instruction (Layng, Twyman, &amp; Strikeleather, 2003) and has been used even in inner city schools with promising results. The potential of well-designed instructional technology to effect positive social change is enormous. The relevance of this example in the present context is that the construction of this program was explicitly guided, in part, by Skinner's analysis of language. One of its designers remarked, “Without Verbal Behavior, there would be no program” (T. V.

I was happy to comply, and promptly invented stories full of imaginary creatures in elaborate plots intended to convey some important lesson about patience or hard work or being kind to others. But my daughter was not pleased. She had very particular ideas about what her bedtime stories should be about. She wanted stories about a little girl planning a birthday party. A human girl. A human girl about her age. And what fascinated her were the mundane details: the theme for the party, the location, who was invited, and (most importantly) what they had for dessert. It turns out my daughter is not alone. Her passion for birthday party stories, in particular, may be somewhat idiosyncratic, but children often prefer the factual over the fantastical. And a growing body of work suggests that when it comes to storybooks, they also learn better from stories that are realistic. For example, preschool-aged children are more likely to learn new facts about animals when the animals are portrayed realistically as opposed to anthropomorphically, and they're more likely to apply the solution to a problem presented in a storybook to a new scenario when the storybook involves real people (as opposed to fictional characters) and a realistic plot (as opposed to a space adventure). A new study by Nicole Larson, Kang Lee, and Patricia Ganea, forthcoming in the journal Developmental Science, reveals that learning about good behavior is no exception. When children read a realistic storybook about humans who shared, they were more likely to do so themselves. In the study, 4- to 6-year-old children were read a story about sharing that featured either human characters or anthropomorphic animals. Both before and after the story, children had the opportunity to share stickers with other children. The number of stickers each child set aside for others provided a quantifiable measure of sharing. The key finding was that, on average, children who heard the story featuring a human who shared increased the number of stickers they shared, whereas those who heard the story featuring an anthropomorphic animal that shared did not. In other words, young children applied the lesson from the story to their own behavior, but only when the story featured humans. The researchers also found that when children in another group were allowed to choose whether to read the story about humans or the story about anthropomorphic animals, they had no reliable preference.

Meridian Township will make the apology Thursday to Brianne Randall-Gay and announce changes in how it handles sexual misconduct investigations, township Manager Frank Walsh said. Nassar, who was a sports doctor at Michigan State University and USA Gymnastics, convinced police that he had performed a legitimate procedure with his hands and even provided a PowerPoint presentation to explain. The case was dropped, effectively allowing him to continue to molest girls and young women, including Olympians, for years until his arrest in 2016.

Walsh said the township was told to withhold it from the public until Nassar was sentenced last week to 40 to 175 years in prison for sexually assaulting young women and girls in Ingham County. Another sentencing is underway this week in a similar case in Eaton County. In 2004, Randall-Gay was 17 when she and her mother visited Nassar to discuss treatment for scoliosis, a curvature of the spine. He sent her to physical therapy but saw her again, this time alone. Randall-Gay had a back problem. But she told police that Nassar had removed her underwear, forcibly cupped her genitals with his hand and rubbed her breasts — all without gloves. \"She thought it was 'weird' and it 'freaked her out,'\" the police report says. Nassar told police he applied pressure to the \"perineum,\" using a formal word for an area between the legs, and said it was done to manipulate a ligament, according to the report. Nassar provided a paper version of a PowerPoint presentation about the ligament procedure, titled \"The Grand Junction.\" There's no indication that police shared his technical explanation with an outside expert.

Regardless of if they were currently blind, capable of seeing but closing there eyes or simply looking at the sunset themselves and already knowing what it looks like.

In my experience, teachers that see themselves as social scientists and reformers as well as educators are ready to make the needed changes to make the world a better place. They actively want to prevent the feeling many students get that they are entering a portal into the past the moment they walk into a school classroom. I have identified a few things I feel need to be more clearly part of our institutions of learning: * Literacy (scientific, historical, technological, literary, etc.) must be interdisciplinary and react to current issues, problems, and ideas. * Technology is not a gimmick. Without access to and active use of technology, teachers cannot do their job. This is not to say that technology is an essential component of *all* instruction, just that it is a necessary component of the \"big picture.\" * Every child does not need to follow the same instructional path. This includes time spent physically in school, courses taken, amount and type of homework, and standardized assessment.

Experts suggest that the perfect temperature for a cup of tea should be between 60 and 65 degrees Celsius, any hotter and the leaves become scalded and lose their flavour. Despite this, kettle manufacturers continue to create devices that boil the water to well over a hundred degrees. &gt; If a kettle were to be produced that only heated the water to 65 degrees, we would get better tea, faster and with an energy reduction of around 40%. Surely that makes sense especially with tea consumption being as high as it is in the UK! &gt; Naturally, a kettle of this type would need a dial to allow for hotter water on those rare occasions where the water is needed for something other than tea… &gt; Time for some rough science… &gt; The average Brit drinks around 5 cups of tea per day (according to the UK Tea Council and the total population in the UK is around 61 million people. That means the UK consumes around 366 million cups of tea per day. A quick google indicates to that it costs around £0.02 to boil a kettle at current market rates. That works out at a national cost of £732,0000 per day or £2671,800,000 per year spent on boiling kettles in the UK. &gt; If we reduce this figure by the 40% that would equate to a national saving per year of around £1068,720,000 and £14.60 for each person in the country. Naturally, this assumes that everyone makes their own cups of tea, doesn’t drink cold drinks and always consumes the national average number of cups per day (I did say it was rough science!). &gt; That’s more money than I can imagine in my head, a massive saving and a huge improvement on national energy consumption levels.

The new bill, introduced by Rep. Tony Cornish, R-Vernon Center, would establish a one-time permitting system by eliminating expiration dates from carrying permits issued after Aug. 1. \"It's similar to our firearm safety certificate,\" Cornish said. \"You're given that when you're 11 years old, and you can handle a firearm for the rest of your life and you never have to take another class. Why do we require (renewal) for handguns?\" The bill is among gun-related legislation to garner opposition this year from anti-gun violence group Protect Minnesota. The group took to the State Capitol Tuesday, Feb. 14 for its Broken Hearts Day event to urge lawmakers to reject bills like lifetime permits, which members called \"extreme.\" The group distributed 1,500 handmade cards to lawmakers, each one representing an incident of gun violence in the last year. The Rev. Nancy Nord Bence, Protect Minnesota executive director, said the Cornish bill would hinder law enforcement's ability to remove licenses from people who can no longer safely carry a gun. The state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension reported cancelling, revoking or suspending permits from nearly 400 Minnesotans who had previously been approved to carry firearms. The bill, she said, also raises concern over Minnesota's aging population, who will become increasingly susceptible to dementia. The Alzheimer's Association estimates more than 90,000 Minnesotans over the age of 65 live with Alzheimer's, and the number is expected to grow to 120,000 by 2020. \"Do we really believe that that person who was safe to carry a gun when they were 21, or 31 or 41 still be totally completely together when they're 91?\" she asked. \"We have a serious issue with our aging population that is well-armed.\" Cornish dismissed concerns from Protect Minnesota, whom he called \"gun-haters.\" A former police officer who chairs the House Public Safety and Security Committee, Cornish said the initial training and background check would sufficiently vet applicants the first time. The lifetime permits holders, he said, could lose their permit if convicted of crimes that would bar them from carrying a handgun. Cornish's bill also aims to lower the cost of legally carrying a firearm by reducing the maximum permit fee counties can charge from $100", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Harris has already been nominated to be ambassador to Australia. And the change would come only several weeks before a planned summit between the U.S. and North Korea. A White House official and a congressional aide describe the plan on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss them by name. The aide says the State Department and the governments in both Australia and South Korea have been informed that the administration is looking at a switch of postings for Harris, although nothing has been made official yet. Harris' Senate confirmation hearing for the Australia post had been scheduled to take place Tuesday but was postponed. ___ 11:35 a.m. President Donald Trump says North Korea wants to hold a high-stakes meeting \"as soon as possible\" and he is praising Kim Jong Un as \"very open\" and \"very honorable.\" Trump is addressing his upcoming plans to meet with the North Korean leader during his discussions at the White House with French President Emmanuel Macron.

While I typically love herb I sometimes feel like it is quite love-hate relationship. Anyhow, I am thinking about quitting but have a few questions. I am not concerned with the difficulty of quitting so much as I am concerned with missing out on something I enjoy and can use responsibly but have just gotten out of the habit of using it in such a way. And so my curiosity lies in the area between quitting cold turkey and once again becoming an occasional toker. Specifically, what sorts of benefits do I stand to gain from not smoking at all versus smoking, say, a few times during the weekend only? My reasons for quitting don't have much to do with school but maybe it's because my not caring about school is a symptom of smoking so much pot. I tend to not think so because I feel like I can attribute my lack of feelings towards school (mostly my own major, which is Business YUCK!) to me learning better what it is I want out of life (Kindness, beauty, truth). Another thing I was curious about are the mid-term effects. I wonder if my personality has changed since I started smoking or if I have simply grown into the person i was always to become? Also, a question for anybody doing anything cognitively demanding: I have an IQ in the 130s (why this is important I have no idea ha- maybe I just want to brag because it's anonymous and so i don't feel bad about it ) and was wondering if perhaps my head is a bit more clouded than I realize. I usually wake up a little hazy but usually by evening time I feel perfectly clear headed (assuming I havent lit up again!) but am I really? How long will people notice improved clarity in thinking? Improvements in memory? I do seem to have a poor memory at times, but I attribute this to actually being high and not herb intake, if that makes sense. Okay, I think that's it.

However, not all PM software will work in every industry, company, or project size and type. Here are three steps to help your company select the right software to suit your project needs. 1. Evaluate your internal environment. Gather all the details about your business and how it operates. Factor in company size, hierarchy, how departments and units are structured, and how they interact. Also, analyze products or services, culture, and the available internal and outsourced talent. Some other factors to consider include internal policies, technology, internal views, project methodologies, long-term goals, and finances. These have the potential to create alignment issues with the way your business operates or manage projects. Before choosing PM software, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your business. This in-depth analysis may slow the selection process down, and take time and effort, but it is an essential exercise that will help all stakeholders avoid disappointment, wasted time, and potentially unnecessary costs. Having a big-picture view can reduce the risk of selecting a solution that does not align well with the long-term strategy or the unique inner workings of your business. SEE: Managing vendor relationships: Time commitment, benefits, and pain points (Tech Pro Research) 2. Identify projects and confirm PM software will sufficiently support all aspects. Work with business leaders to identify and document high-level details about upcoming projects, both short and long-term. Record as much detail as possible; this information will be required when sending requests for information (RFIs), requests for proposals(RFPs), or requests for quotes (RFQs) to software vendors. To ensure the a particular solution can meet your short and long-term goals, pay close attention to the details provided to make sure project requirements are properly and fully addressed in vendor documents. Look for features that work for your specific project needs. Just because a vendor offers more features than other vendors does not make it the best choice for your company's projects. Make sure the solution can accommodate your key processes and methodologies and that it is scalable and customizable. Also take the time to make sure the vendor can complete onboarding within your company's budget and schedule. SEE: How to build a successful project manager career (free PDF) (TechRepublic) 3. Do a trial run. Whenever possible, take the opportunity to do a trial run of the fully-working version of the software your company intends to implement.

Except there was one key difference this time: For 21-year-old Jared Donaldson against No. 4-seed Grigor Dimitrov on Wednesday, unlike for 17-year-old — and eventual tournament champion — Michael Chang against Ivan Lendl in 1989, the unorthodox strategy didn't come in a victory. Dimitrov came back to beat the 57th-ranked Donaldson 6-7 (2), 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 10-8 in a second-round match that lasted 4 hours, 19 minutes on the new Court 18 at Roland Garros. The most memorable aspect was Donaldson's two unusual service motions; he won the point the first time, but not the other. \"I would never try it if I was feeling 100 percent and stuff,\" said Donaldson, who could barely move by the end because of painful cramps in his legs. \"But obviously Grigor was playing so far back on the return that I felt like, 'You know, maybe it's just something that I'll try.' He obviously wasn't expecting it, you know what I mean? It's kind of a cheeky way to get a point.\" Donaldson said he has never seen footage of what Chang did 29 years ago. He did, however, know of the episode: Chang used an underhand serve while cramping during a fourth-round win over Lendl on the way to the French Open title; he remains the youngest man to win a major singles championship. Dimitrov was not angered by the tactic. Quite the opposite, actually, shrugging his shoulders and conceding it was smart for Donaldson to try it. \"It was beautiful, right?\" Dimitrov said. \"He wanted to use something different to kind of try to put me off guard.\" Before his first underhand attempt, Donaldson was actually two points from the victory, leading 6-5 in the fifth set and at love-30 on Dimitrov's serve. But Dimitrov took the next four points. In the next game, at 6-all, 40-30, Donaldson successfully used the underhand motion.

To do this, first create a Gmail label, such as \"Never delete.\" Then, search for a colleague's email address.

Yes, the company hired a new CEO, Steve Singh, the former CEO of Concur Technologies. Like Ittycheria, Singh may well bring discipline and a sales-minded culture to Docker. Indeed, according to the funding rumors, a significant share of the funding is intended to build out a sales and marketing machine. If so, that's really good news, as Docker's current revenue is paltry compared to its popularity, as several sources close to the company have shared with me. Even if you don't believe the inside sources, the company's valuation growing just $300,000 over two years is testimony enough that Docker has yet to crack the revenue code. The problem for Docker, however, is that other companies are minting lots of revenue from containers, even as it searches for the right approach. Your loss, my gain It's not hard to find competitors currently collecting copious cash from the container fever Docker did most to spark. Google, Microsoft, and AWS are all earning healthy returns on containers within their clouds, but Red Hat, more than any other company, offers the most painful slap in the face. Two years ago, Cloud Technology Partners' Mike Kavis highlighted a few reasons that Docker was (then) worth $1 billion after its funding round. Each of those, however, points to Red Hat as a bigger beneficiary of the container mania than Docker, given that Red Hat wisely chose to build on community darling Kubernetes. In his post, Kavitz talked about Docker as sitting at the center of a future of distributed applications, its affinity for hybrid architectures, and its robust ecosystem, among other things. SEE: Special report: Riding the DevOps revolution (free PDF) But each of these areas is more likely to favor Kubernetes, which has become the center of the container ecosystem precisely because it's how enterprises choose to manage containers at scale. Add Kubernetes' traction to Red Hat's longstanding ability to sell into the enterprise and it starts to become clear how hard Docker has made things for itself by delaying a real revenue model for so long. Is it too late? No. But Docker, despite rightly getting credit for fostering the container market, is the underdog, and not nearly as well-equipped as Red Hat to make money from containers.

I know I wouldn't because I don't. We have hundreds of opportunities to steal every day that most of us don't take. 4) It seems to me that internet stealing is actually just what sociologist might call \"the Risk/reward determination\" that humans use to justify to themselves any and all acts.

Without it, they wouldn't be able to charge $200 for the new version of the game.

A roll of 4,3,6,1,2 would be 3 hits. 3 defending infantry would roll 3 dice (2,5,3) anything 2 or lower would be a hit (1 hit) and each player would lose 3 and 1 units respectively.

When an away team including Chakotay go down to the planet to scout it out, a number of things happen that remind Chakotay of an excursion his father took him on, when he was younger, to find their ancestral \"rubber tree people.\" The bulk of the episode are: scenes of Chakotay remembering that excursion with his father; Chakotay trying to figure out why this planet seems so much like the one where his ancestors were on that excursion; and Voyager trying to rescue Chakotay from the planet's surface, but continually being vexed by ever-increasing obstacles that seem to be directed by an unknown force. At the end of the episode, it's revealed that what Chakotay and his ancestors knew as the \"sky people\" are actually aliens who visited Earth a few thousand years ago and were \"impressed\" by the people they found (who are, it is implied, the fore-bearers of Native Americans) and their respect for the Earth. But the kicker is not JUST that these aliens were the ones that gave culture to the stupid natives (who, before these aliens arrived just had primitive tools and fire), but that these aliens are basically old white people -- here's a pic. Is this just a bad casting job, or a bad script? The guy who plays this alien acts like pretty much exactly what he looks like -- an accountant from Tampa. \"We found your stupid ancestors who were standing around in the snow in the frozen tundra, we touched them, and they then decided to travel to better places, and expand their culture.\" Uh, wut? I get that the only thing they have to go on with Chakotay is that he's vaguely Native American, but this seems SO tone-deaf to the idea that not only are white folks the ones who helped Native Americans, but that essentially the people of Earth are all tied to this one generic, \"nature respecting\" group of aliens who are not developed in the least.

The 2 older women seemed disappointed that I had that much information, maybe they thought it would be an easy win for them, the child on the other hand had a sort of puzzled look on his face maybe he didn't know that an atheist was I'm not sure.

The number of machine learning pilots and implementations will double by the end of 2018, and then will double from that number by the end of 2020, Deloitte's report predicts. Businesses spent $17 billion on the technology in 2017, and that is expected to increase to $57.6 billion by 2021. Deloitte identified five factors that have held back machine learning growth: Too few practitioners, high costs, tools are too young, confusing models, and business regulations. SEE: Quick glossary: Artificial intelligence (Tech Pro Research) The estimated growth shows how as the technology evolves, buy-in from businesses may increase, whether they're using it to improve workflows or create new products. If businesses opt to not adopt the technology, they may risk falling behind others. The report looked at other emerging technologies, including augmented reality (AR). One billion smartphones will create AR content at least once in 2018, the report found, with 300 million using AR at least monthly. In what used to just mean an animated face filter on Snapchat or Instagram, AR will expand to other uses for mobile devices. Last week, Apple named AR as one of its breakout app trends of 2017. Deloitte predicts direct revenues from AR on smartphones will hit $1 billion by 2020, growing tenfold from 2018. With the trend continuing to grow, developers and brands may need to find ways to integrate AR into an app to stay up-to-date and entertain users. While Deloitte expects less than $100 million in discrete app revenues for AR content globally in 2018, it could drive sales in other ways. The ability to simply host AR content may be a key difference to consumers looking to switch or upgrade devices. In good news for business travelers, the Deloitte report also found in-flight connectivity (IFC) will be up 20% in 2018. One-quarter of all airline passengers will fly on a plane with access to the internet. Business travelers will have a higher chance they will be able to connect in the air, enabling them to get more work done in transit.

Though this new round brings the company's value to $1.3 billion, that number has hardly moved from Docker's $1 billion valuation back in 2015. Investors clearly continue to have an appetite for Docker's potential, but unless the company does something drastic to super-charge its appeal to paying enterprises, other companies like Red Hat will continue to mint money on the container revolution that Docker kickstarted. Fat and lazy on investor cash You've seen it before: The hearty congratulations on Twitter to startups that raise a big round of funding. Too often, however, venture money isn't a sign of success—it means a company still hasn't figured out how to make money, so it's buying time with VC money.

However, although he's slipping in polling, Brooks is hoping to turn McConnell's fervent support for Strange into a last-ditch way to get into the likely runoff against Moore. He's hitched a \"Ditch Mitch\" banner to his campaign bus in the final days, and in his closing ad he echoes Trump's frustration with McConnell's inability to push through an Obamacare repeal. \"McConnell and Strange are weak, but together we can be strong,\" Brooks says. \"Mr. President, isn't it time we tell McConnell and Strange, 'You're fired?'\" Ultimately, the Huntsville-area congressman hasn't had the resources the other two candidates have had, and he hasn't been elected statewide before like Moore and Strange. And, perhaps most damaging, he was certainly no fan of Trump during the GOP presidential primaries last year, during which he supported Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. McConnell's super PAC has pointed that out in ads, saying Brooks sided with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. If Strange does fall short of the runoff, University of Alabama political science professor emeritus William Stewart, a longtime political observer in the state, said that's a big problem for McConnell. And, if Strange does make it to the likely September runoff, expect that to be a big point Moore can use against Strange, too. \"The McConnell support for Strange will not be helpful because McConnell, as the president says, hasn't been successful at pushing through the president's agenda, \" Stewart said. \"If Strange doesn't make the runoff, that's a definite blow to McConnell,\" more so than Trump. Polling shows Moore is still the favorite against Strange in a runoff, and that's where the McConnell ties could be the most deadly — and place the president in a more precarious spot given his surprising endorsement. Stewart said it would be interesting to watch how much Trump puts his muscle behind Strange later, and something like traveling to Alabama — one of Trump's best states in 2016 — for a rally on the senator's behalf would certainly give Strange a boost.

It could be days or longer before we know the final results.\" The new framework expands Erdogan's powers and means he could potentially stay in office until 2029. As Peter explains: \"Power would be more concentrated under the presidency. \"If the referendum is approved by majority vote, the office of prime minister would be abolished after the next elections, scheduled for 2019. Another body, the Council of Ministers, would also go, and all executive and administrative authority would be transferred to the president's office.... \"The change would increase Erdogan's influence over who runs for Parliament. \"Cabinet ministers would no longer have to be members of Parliament, and the Parliament would not have power over Cabinet appointments — ministers would be appointed directly by the president.\" People who voted \"Yes\" say concentrating power in the hands of the presidency will make the country more stable, while critics say it will fundamentally undercut Turkey's democracy.

I AM NOT ASKING FOR MONEY, just advice. They woman who hit me got two tickets and her car towed on the spot (not because it wasn't drivable, but because she failed to have insurance). The main problem is that she has no money either, and no way to pay me.

When global investors grow nervous, they often pour money into Treasurys because they're seen as ultra-safe. That buying pressure holds down Treasury rates. ___ Q. So where will home loan rates go from here? A. Hard to tell. The Fed expects to lift its benchmark rate one more time this year and three times in 2018. Eventually, those increases should put upward pressure on mortgage rates, but it's impossible to say when. Mortgage rates are still very low by historical standards. Before the Great Recession, the 30-year rate had never dipped below 5 percent. ___ Q. How could the Fed's actions affect other countries around the world? A. Higher rates in the United States tend to attract more investment from overseas. The European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan are still keeping their benchmark rates near zero to try to stimulate those economies. So investors can earn more by investing in dollar-denominated assets. That inflow pushes up the value of the dollar, which can make U.S. exports costlier overseas. It can also pull money out of developing countries, where rates are usually higher but government bonds carry more risk. A flow of funds out of developing nations can lower their currencies relative to the dollar, making it harder for businesses in those nations to repay debts they have incurred in dollars. ___ Q. My credit rating isn't so great. How will I be affected? A. Doug Amis, a certified financial planner in Cary, North Carolina, says consumers with less-than-sterling credit can expect to pay more, especially when financing the purchase of a used car. \"There's going to be an opportunity to increase those rates higher,\" Amis said. \"So if you have poor credit, this is going to impact you.\" Still, even with another rate hike, the impact on consumers and businesses is likely to remain mild, as rates remain very low, relative to years ago, Amis noted. ___ Q. Have the Fed's moves boosted the puny rates available for savers? A. In a few cases, yes. McBride says some smaller banks are starting to offer higher rates on CDs and savings accounts than larger banks are. The huge national banks already have \"more deposits than they know what to do with,\" McBride said, so haven't lifted", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Second, Humana offers us the opportunity to reach more chronically-ill patients with the type of care we’d want for our own loved ones.” “We’re pleased to work with Landmark to bring this kind of coordinated, at-home care model to our Medicare Advantage members for the first time,” said Humana Health Guidance Organization Vice President Chuck Stemple, D.O. “This collaboration will provide care in a comforting setting with the benefit of an entire care team working in coordination with the patient’s existing primary care physician in a holistic approach.” The agreement with Landmark is part of Humana’s longstanding commitment to value-based care, which emphasizes: More personal time with health professionals and personalized care that is tailored to each person’s unique health situation; Access to proactive health screenings and programs that are focused on preventing illness; Improved care for people living with chronic conditions with a focus on avoiding health complications (watch Humana’s “Better Chronic Management Through Value-Based Care” video); Leveraging technologies, such as data analytics, that connect physicians and help them work as a team to coordinate care around the patient; and Reimbursement to physicians linked to the health outcomes of their patients rather than solely on the quantity of services they provide (fee-for-service). Humana has an extensive and growing value-based care presence. As of December 31, 2017, Humana has 1.9 million individual Medicare Advantage members and approximately 140,000 commercial members who are cared for by 52,000 primary care physicians in more than 1,000 value-based relationships across 43 states and Puerto Rico. Humana reached its 2017 calendar year goal of having 66 percent of Humana’s 2.9 million total individual Medicare Advantage members seeing primary care physicians in value-based payment relationships.

Even in the cases where progress has been made, masterminds are still free and justice is losing.\" By CPJ's estimate, 87 percent of the murders committed against journalists in Mexico since 1990 either have not been investigated or have no arrests.

It has triggered a fierce lobbying campaign, with Russia hawks in Congress pushing the administration to include certain names and lobbyists hired by Russian businessmen urging the administration to keep their clients off. Companies or foreign governments that had been doing business with blacklisted Russian entities had been given a three-month grace period to extricate themselves from transactions, starting in October when the blacklist was published and ending Monday. But only those engaged in \"significant transactions\" are to be punished, and the United States has never defined that term or given a dollar figure. That ambiguity has made it impossible for the public to know exactly what is and isn't permissible. Late last year, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said one reason the U.S. was proceeding cautiously was that major U.S. allies have much at stake. Turkey, a NATO ally, has a deal to buy the S-400, Russia's most advanced air defense missile system. And key security partner Saudi Arabia recently struck an array of deals with Moscow, including contracts for weapons. It was unclear whether either country had since abandoned those deals to avoid running afoul of the U.S. sanctions. New York Rep. Eliot Engel, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, lambasted the move to punish no one, saying he was \"fed up\" and that Trump's administration had chosen to \"let Russia off the hook yet again.\" He dismissed the State Department's claim that \"the mere threat of sanctions\" would stop Moscow from further meddling in America's elections. \"How do you deter an attack that happened two years ago, and another that's already underway?\" Engel said. \"It just doesn't make sense.\" ___ Associated Press writer Jill Colvin contributed to this report. ___ Reach Josh Lederman on Twitter at http://twitter.com/joshledermanAP", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 394, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

It's key to listen for a nontraditional candidate's intent, Jordan said. This person may have some great examples of how they have handled a situation in the past, but they may have applied that knowledge in a different way or setting. \"Focus on the skill and the application of what they've done versus where they did it,\" she added. Making interview accommodations To attract more diverse candidates, Microsoft undertook a number of inclusivity measures in recent years, including reworking job descriptions and training managers on interviewing nontraditional candidates, according to Neil Barnett, the company's director of inclusive hiring. About two and a half years ago, Microsoft created an autism hiring program. Some 50 employees have been hired through the program, Barnett said. About half of those employees had applied to jobs at Microsoft previously, he added. But now, \"we train managers and teams ahead of time on neurodiversity and disability etiquette,\" Barnett said. \"We believe that by demystifying and breaking down the stereotypes of disabilities, we can help eliminate any unconscious biases that recruiters, hiring managers and teams might have before they interview a candidate.\" Microsoft also trains hiring managers to offer job candidates the opportunity to ask and receive customizations for the interview. This might include performing a technical interview on their own familiar device, spacing more time between multiple interviews, or lengthening the time of each interview—which might allow someone with ADHD or a cognitive disability adequate time to think and respond to questions. \"Managers found that offering customizations have made all interviews more successful,\" Barnett said. \"Asking candidates what they need to have the", "label": 0, "domain": "news", "token_count": 500, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

However, it's worth noting the LattePanda Alpha is not a Pi competitor. While the Pi costs just $35, the LattePanda Alpha starts at $289. The difference is reflected in the specs, with the LattePanda Alpha having more in common with a laptop than a low-cost board like the Pi. The LattePanda Alpha uses the same class of Intel processor as found in this year's 12-inch MacBook, a 7th generation, Intel Core m3. Backing up this processor is 8GB of DDR3 memory and 64GB Flash storage, alongside Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi and USB 3.0 ports, a USB Type-C port, 4K video out. While the board's makers DFRobot say the Alpha will ship with Windows 10 Pro, they add it will also be compatible with a range of Linux-based OSes. The board—which is about 70% the length of the iPhone 7 Plus—is designed to be used to be used by developers working in a wide range of fields, from robotics to internet of things, and as such has the necessary electronics for adding a wide-range of custom hardware to the board. SEE: Hardware spotlight: The Raspberry Pi The Alpha has 2 x 50-Pin headers for hooking up hardware, as well as an Arduino Leonardo co-processor. Alongside the Alpha, the board's makers will also release a version of the board without the eMMC storage for $269, as well as the lower-specced LattePanda Delta, which starts at $129. The Delta runs on an Intel Celeron N4100 processor, has 4GB of RAM but still keeps many of the advantages of the Alpha board, such as 802.11ac Wi-Fi and 3 x USB 3.0 ports. Both boards are being crowdfunded via Kickstarter, and as of publication have passed their £72,611 funding target, with just shy of £97,000 raised with 56 days left to go.

Was it at all strange to have an experience with one and then the other? 2) Guys who are circumcised, do you wish it hadn't been done? Guys who aren't, do you wish you were?

Other Reddit users chimed in saying that they were getting the same results, with some even experiencing it when they performed a search for \"Vizela viagens\" (a travel agency in one Reddit user's home town), and the glitch also appeared with variant spellings too. Reddit users with a wide variety of Android devices said they were affected as well. Particularly interesting is one comment stating that if you type \"my text messages\" into the search bar you receive the same result. What this means for how Google may be caching text messages is unknown. Is it a security risk? Google has yet to issue a statement regarding the bug, and without some acknowledgement of the issue and its scope it's difficult to know if there is any real risk of data exposure. More likely is the possibility that the bug is connected to Google Assistant, as pointed out by an article on MSPoweruser: \"upon testing, I found out that any Android device with Google Assistant has this issue. It isn't certain if this is a deliberate action by Google or just a weird glitch that [lets] Google access the messages stored on the device.\" SEE: Mobile device computing policy (Tech Pro Research) Google Assistant has been able to read text messages aloud for some time, raising the distinct possibility that Google simply overlooked a few precise search terms that would generate the same result.

Open the Settings app, tap on the Apps option, and then revoke SMS permissions from the Google app. There's a good chance this isn't anything more than a simple bug, but taking precautions to protect your personal messages is good to do just in case.

I feel it may have been a more obscure book, not really gaining much popularity but I am posting this with fingers crossed. There are a few key points I remember: There are 5? nations in conflict, each with abilities unique to its citizens. One nation/people can regenerate and self-heal, to the point that some people need to be 'pruned' of extra limbs, etc. Another can manipulate (accelerate/decelerate) the flow of time for themselves. Another can project illusions of themselves, appearing in any likeness; another, a desert-dwelling people, can commune with the earth and see/hear across the world.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0649", "text": "Unfortunately, it seems there's a phishing scheme to go along with virtually every event in life, whether a holiday, a tragedy, or an annual ritual. Tax time is not exempt, so to speak. Whether you work in finance or you support users who do, it's important to be on the lookout this tax season for phishing schemes geared towards obtaining confidential information from unsuspecting individuals. What should users look out for? A common phishing attempt involves compromised or spoofed emails which purport to be from an executive at your organization and are sent either to human resources or finance/payroll employees. The email requests a list of employees and their related W-2 forms. That's not all, however. Another common scam (which can occur throughout the year) involves receiving a phone call from an individual claiming to be from the IRS (caller ID can be spoofed to show this as well) who informs you that you owe money for back taxes and often threatens law enforcement retribution if payment (usually via credit card over the phone) isn't provided. The IRS will never call you on the phone to report you owe them money nor demand money over the phone; they utilize the postal service for such notifications. They also will not engage in threats and are supposed to provide an opportunity for you to work constructively with them or negotiate payment. SEE: IT leader's guide to cyberattack recovery (Tech Pro Research) What standard protection methods should be used? The typical safeguards against phishing can protect you and your employees; establish a policy against requesting confidential information through email, call people directly to verify such requests, arrange for secure transfer of data, and limit the number of employees who possess the authority to access or handle W-2 forms. The IRS also recommends contacting them about any malicious activity. Phishing attempts can be reported to phishing@irs.gov. If someone from your company has given out W-2 information, contact dataloss@irs.gov with a description of what happened and how many employees were affected. Also make sure not to attach any confidential information! If your company is contacted by scammers claiming you owe the IRS money, report it via the IRS Impersonation Scam Reporting webpage. You can also call 800-366-4484. You should also report this to the Federal Trade Commission via the FTC Complaint Assistant on FTC.gov. What else is available to help here?

No, didn't thing so...) to subversion. Currently our 'source catalog' consists of a MSSQL server with a database for each code set, and a legacy indexer which use string-position parsing to parse the syntax. The indexer drops each database every time it runs, and takes about 4 hours to go through a set of code. Any time it errors on its overnight run we are left without the ability to search through our source until we can get it running again. Obviously it's not the best situation. I'd like to switch to a better source searcher, but I'm unclear on all the options. What do you suggest? Are there any open source solutions I should be looking at? The source is PowerBuilder code (don't laugh, we still use that) and the code consists of roughly 7 million lines. I understand that no open source indexer would have support for parsing PowerBuilder syntax, why would they; I've already written a parsing tool and am looking for an indexer that it could easily fit into (its written in Python so a python indexer would be very helpful).

It is mostly complete, but I wanted to run something by reddit to get some perspective on what other people think. Mostly because I seem to be arguing differently than my TA. Arnauld's response to Descartes involves a hypothetical situation involving a right angle in a semi-circle. Arnauld's goal is to refute Descartes's claim that conceivability implies possibility. He says that someone could conceive of this right angle as a triangle that is made by the angle and the diameter of the circle. Pythagorean theorem says that the hypotenuse is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of both sides (I know you know I know you know). Arnauld argues that someone could not know, or even deny that Pythagorean theorem holds in this case, yet still conceive of something without a contradiction. This triangle would be impossible by Pythagorean theorem, so I argue that there actually IS a contradiction and that Arnauld's argument fails. I brought this up in discussion and my TA pointed to the fact that it is a theorem, than you don't get Pythagorean theorem by definition. In any case, I still feel there is a contradiction and thus Arnauld is not successful at refuting Descartes's argument. I would like to hear what you think, I don't want you to write my essay and I'm not going to include your ideas. I just like philosophy and want to feel a little more enlightened. tl;dr How is conceiving of Arnauld's triangle NOT a contradiction?", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 330, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

Tell me what you think. **Prereqs:** - College Algebra and basic math fundamentals - Calculus is not a must, but could come in handy for derivations of some theorems - Ability to challenge yourself and stay focused at the task at hand **Course Objectives:** - Use Elementary statistical methods to analyze data. i.e., Calculate the mean, standard deviation, variance median, quartiles of a univariate data set and use the appropriate graphs and statistics to summarize it. - Calculate probabilities of well-known distributions, i.e., Binomial, Normal, Chi-Squared, etc,. - Understand confidence intervals and the ability to find the CI for population mean, population standard deviation. - Hypothesis testing of one population mean, population standard deviation and two population means, standard deviations. - Use of tables to test the hypothesis of association between two categorical variables. - Recognize situations in which statistical inference can be applied to real world data. If you have any suggestions on what else the curriculum could cover, please tell me. This will be designed to be a semester long course at the pace of a standard college lecture.

There were no signs on the doors that said once you leave, you aren't getting back in. After they played there were a few other bands. A group of about 20 people decided to go to the subway up the street before they made the announced who won. They couldn't get back in. Despite driving 5 hours in a rented bus to see their friends play, they weren't allowed back in to see them win. I live across the street from the Opera House. I had left to go charge my camcorder. After about a 10 minute agrument with a bouncer (tall guy with long dreads, has a reputation of being an utter fucking prick) he let me back in because I was just getting on his nerves at that point. His argument was that for all he knows, I could have left and \"downed a 26er and died of alcohol poisoning on their property.\" I can finish a 26er, but I was visibly sober. And finishing a 26er is a process that takes several hours. My second experience was earlier this month. The same band came to play for an industry showcase. Nobody else came from out of town, but one of the band member's brother lives in Toronto. He was going to help them load up their gear and bring it back to his place because it was very cold and I guess that's bad for musical instruments. The bouncer told him if he doesn't have a band stamp, he isn't getting in again. He explain that his brother was in the band and he was just helping them. They just weren't being cooperative. He told the bouncer, the tall one with dreads, that he's an asshole and he can go fuck himself. He left and didn't come back. This is such a weak argument. Bars don't do this.

A perfect example: On a document project I was involved with, we ended up printing a couple hundred copies of a non-final, typo-ridden version because the designer sent the wrong file to the printing vendor. (He had a habit of saving a new version to his desktop every time a change was made. As a result, his desktop was cluttered with dozens and dozens of version files, most with the auto-assigned filenames as he wouldn't bother to put in a time stamp, etc.) When confronted, he exploded in anger, saying goddammit, he was sick and tired of this stupid project, and why the hell did we make him work on it? He's not going to put up with this crap any more, etc. etc. No admission of guilt, nor any denial either. Anyway, he ranted long and hard, and even ranted to his supervisor that he was sick of it, and being a top designer, he actually got his boss to promise not to make him work on that particular document (produced annually) ever again.

So I decided to try and understand it by thinking about it and trying to create my own way to get anonymous recursive functions. So here is what I have ( and hopefully not *too* far away from the Y Combinator): you have a function f(x) that you want to make recursive, for this example, i'll use the classic factorial function. So factorial is defined as: fact(n): if(n=1 or n=0) return 1 else return n*fact(n-1) Since we do not have named functions, we'd get: f(x): if(x=1 or x=0) return 1 else return n*??(n-1) Now, I thought of creating another function, which takes the function we want to make recursive like so (x=higher order function, n=factorial to compute): f(n,x): x(n,x) Now the x function can call itself, since you passed the same function as an argument. So all we would have to do is call f with x being the anonymous factorial function we want to make recursive, along with an extra argument. So this is what my final factorial would look like: lambda(n,x): if n&lt;2 return 1 else return n*x(n-1) Now all I have to do is call f with the anonymous function I just created ( f could be an anonymous function itself), and voila, we have a recursive function. However, this is as far as I've gotten, the Y combinator does some extra steps, and it ends up with functions with only one argument, that I can not understand.... Please help me derive the Y Combinator from what i've got until now ( or if I'm totally off, correct me) Thanks Proggit!", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 398, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

In my generation, graduates with worthless degrees flood the minuscule job market. Even after graduate programs, it can be difficult for these students; these PHD’s to find employment. The idea that “a college education will lead you to a secure, supportive job” is no longer correct. It is the choices of current undergrads that will determine the future economy. So what are society’s current needs that we can orient our bright young minds towards? Well, the environment is one place to look, and a good place to start, considering the devastating events of the last few months. We need more environmental engineers to build better forms of transportation. We need environmental designers and architects to re-vamp the ways that large cities deal with waste, and to build better homes and buildings in the future. The government needs to step up and hire employees to better respond to natural tragedies. So, were I a current undergrad, Environmental Science and Environmental Engineering would definitely be some of the fields I would keep my eye on. Those kids are going to get jobs. In recent history, there are 2 groups that have an almost guaranteed shot at a job after school. The first, and most obvious, are medical students. Jobs in health services have and will always be in need, regardless of current economic trends. These days, there is a huge need for both general practitioners and family doctors, work that can be extremely rewarding. If you can stomach the years and years of training and student loans, I can’t think of a better opportunity for a motivated undergrad. The other field that I believe will persist is Technology. Even though we hear about the massive outsourcing of jobs to India, software companies have been actively hiring skilled college graduates for entry level programming jobs. You might not necessarily need that PhD in Computer Science after all. Good programmers, regardless of credentials, will always be in demand.

When I saw the post with the Atheist billboard my immediate reaction was to be mildly disgusted at people shoving their beliefs down others' throats, but as I read through the comments I noticed people talking about this being a response to all the Jesus billboards you see everywhere. I've never seen a Jesus billboard, but in that context, I can see why someone would want to put up their own anti-Jesus counter-billboard (Rah, billboard warfare). It got me thinking, though: Where I'm from (eastern Canada), it seems most people go about their day without really talking about or worrying about religion. On the rare occasion that it does come up, nobody seems to mind if someone identifies as an Atheist. In fact, amongst my age group, it seems that the majority of people are some variety of Atheist, and those that aren't are typically dismissed as foolish. It appears to be exactly the opposite of what I hear about on Reddit all the time, and it has me a little confused. Is it, perhaps, a location thing? I've spoken to several people about it and they by-and-large agree that religion isn't really even an issue. So what's the deal? Why have I been exempt this oppression? **EDIT:** Thank you all for your comments. I suppose I made the naive mistake of assuming that \"well it can't be *that* different from the way it is here\".

(I know people who work in that building in Austin, sheerly by coincidence.) There are many countries where people pay substantially more in taxes than in the U.S., where failing to pay taxes is illegal and carries penalties, and so on. Why do people in the U.S. go so utterly apeshit over taxes? We have whole political philosophies devoted to the attempt to justify the moral rightness of failing to pay one's taxes. Everything stands and falls on taxes. Decline in education, infrastructure and even growth can be partly attributed to a hatred of taxes. States like California are foundering entirely on the inability to raise taxes. I guarantee if you go to any country that has low economic development, low literacy, horrible infrastructure and so on, the common denominator is that the richer people don't pay taxes. (Many of these countries use IGA or sales taxes as their primary tax collection method.) I don't get it. I pay plenty of my salary in taxes. The other day, I realized I don't even count the portion of my salary that is taxes as really part of my salary. It just makes sense to me that I should pay taxes. My parents got this huge economic bonanza during Bush because they are in that wealthier tax bracket that benefited from his absurd tax reform and they welcome paying more tax if it will keep the country from going down the drain. I don't understand what it is that makes Americans so particularly nuts about taxes. My theories are: (1) People in America love to shop and calculate what they could get at the mall for the money they pay in taxes, whatever the devastation to the country. In other words, we simply don't have a civic minded culture. We're selfish and it is every man for himself (2) It's a kind of peculiar and witless attempt at seeking personal freedom, stemming from the rhetoric we learn surrounded the revolutionary war.

It seems like everyone of friends around me has no trouble finding people and getting into relationships all the time. It just feels really lonely and I feel like an outcast all of the time. I will admit I am kinda a quiet guy, but I can do well in conversations. I enjoy a few hobbies/sports and am comfortable talking about stuff like music and stuff. Once I get started I am pretty okay as far as talking is concerned (the touching barrier is another story..., even just like flirty stuff). The major problem is I have a lot of trouble initiating conversations. I feel like no one by default would want to talk to me and that I am just bothering everyone if I even try. I guess I would also say I am not a bad looking guy.

+{"id": "code_docs_train_neg_0686", "text": "I ask this with all respect to the community FAQ, which define strong atheism and gnostic atheism as equatable concepts. Before I begin, I would like to say that in any other discussions within this subreddit, I have, and will continue to, default to the definitions given in the FAQ. I will do so because these definitions are important--*semantic coherency creates a level playing field of discourse; it allows for fallacies of relevance (such as equivocation and strawmen) to be avoided and easily recognized*. Such fallacies are far too commonplace here (even with the FAQs that are now in place). Of course, for this discussion, I will make an explicit exception: I am going to argue that strong atheism and agnosticism are not necessarily mutually exclusive concepts. Strong atheism is the belief that there is no god. Gnosis is the belief that intuitive knowledge of spiritual beliefs is possible. Thus, *agnostic strong atheism* would be the belief that there is no god, with the caveat that this belief is formed without complete certainty, as actual knowledge of such things is not possible. Is this a tenable position? Surely it is a positive assertion, and therefore must be defended. Well, here we go... Ockham's Razor states that *numquam ponenda est pluralitas sine necessitate*. That is: the existence of entities cannot be posited without necessity. Necessity, in this circumstance, is simply rational and/or empirical justification. Thus, entities that are posited without such justification, in accordance to Ockham's razor, essentially fail to exist--at least with respect to rational beliefs of existence. Moreover, entities that are posited without such justification are necessarily *unknowable*, because they transcend rationality, empirical observation, and by extension, they transcend existence. Otherwise stated: *one cannot know anything about X, if X does not exist*. 'God/s' are a class of entities that have been existentially imported (by some) without rational justification, and without empirical justification. Ergo, until they can be rationally/empirically justified, the class of entities called 'god/s' can be essentially regarded as nonexistent entities. Any thoughts or critiques? Slight edit: this argument is intended to apply to beliefs about reality, not reality *per se*.", "label": 0, "domain": "social", "token_count": 473, "matched_pair_id": null, "split": "train"}

We were never told if they were eventually rendered illegal or not, simply that it was decided a national currency would be better. My thought, however, was that if they were legal, state currencies could be used as a way to ease the economic crisis we're in without the need to inflate the greenback. For example: New York decides to introduce its own denomination of currency The \"Empire\", it sets an exchange rate of Emp to USD of 3:1. All state employees and State contracted firms are now paid in Empires. Farmers and other companies located in New York would develop an in-state advantage due to the fact that they would not have to charge more in order to make up for the unfavorable exchange of Empire to Dollar when selling their goods and services within the state, thus encouraging the growth of strong in-state businesses. Obviously, the Dollar remains legal tender and the private companies in the state are still able to operate with it, and in fact could stand to save money by paying their employees in Empires while dealing in USD. This could entice more businesses to come to NY thereby creating more jobs. There are obvious problems with this, such as the fact that a NYS teacher paid 100,000emp per year would only be making about $33,000 or so which would make it difficult to vacation to a neighboring state as it would cost 3X as much. Still-it would be a way to cut a large portion of the state's budget by a third while hopefully not lowering anybody's quality of life too much if local merchants started to stock \"Made in New York\" goods. In addition, as long as the state's economy improved, so too could the Empire's exchange rate with the Dollar- thus providing New York with an in-house alternative not tied to the same inflation rate's as the dollar.

If your caloric intake exceeds your consumption, you get fat. If \"I\" is your calorie input, and \"C\" is your consumption, then it's a simple equation: C must be greater than I. REDUCING I: Eat fewer calories, but maintain your nutrition. Also, don't do this casuist crap of adding up calories at the end of the day. Eat small meals throughout the day, or else you'll be like my aunt Sharon, who eats half a cake and drinks 4 glasses of wine before bed, then brags about how she only ate 700 calories all day, and complains all day about how fucking hungry she is. You're hungry because you starve all day and eat all your shit right before you lie down to sleep. INCREASING C: Burn more calories, and burn them when the burning is good. You burn fat, as opposed to glycogen stores, when your stomach is empty in the morning or after some lifting, when your muscles use up the glycogen. So, go lift for 15 minutes after work, then do whatever you need to do to get your heart rate up and keep it there for 20 minutes. Or do cardio in the morning.

While the report is focused heavily on the consumer side of tech, there are some key trends that impact the business world. Technology companies represent 25% of the overall US market cap, and that number is growing, as noted on slide 39. Additionally, six of the top 15 CapEx and R&D spenders in the US are tech companies, the report found. As technology continues to impact the US and world economies, certain aspects of the field will be especially important for business professionals to keep up with. Here are five of the most important things in Meeker's report for professionals to take note of. SEE: IT leader's guide to achieving digital transformation (Tech Pro Research) 1. Internet is impacting, disrupting jobs Technology disruption is nothing new in the workplace, but the pace at which it is happening is accelerating, as noted on slide 142 of the report. The rapid adoption of the internet coupled with massive growth in storage and compute power is rapidly shifting day-to-day work in every industry. Technology also makes it easier for freelance workers to find jobs, and freelance work is growing at a faster pace than traditional work. On-demand workers are in high demand, and are growing in number. Immigration is also essential for creating new tech jobs, as 56% of the highest-valued tech firms were founded by first or second generation Americans, as noted on slide 289. 2. Consumers keep moving to mobile While this may sound like a broken record, customers keep moving to mobile, and they don't seem to be slowing down. Mobile shopping and mobile payment apps are providing better online and in-store experiences, and many services—including mobile app-based ones— are shifting from one-time purchases to subscription models. Mobile shopping apps alone have experience 6% year-over-year growth, the report noted. The next generation of retail includes mobile technology and in-store retail, furthering the omnichannel ideal some companies are striving for. 3. AI everywhere Artificial intelligence (AI) platforms are growing in prominence, brought to light by cloud leaders such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This includes hardware tools for GPU acceleration, and APIs for features such as natural language processing and computer vision.
