The author wasn't discussing overprescription, they were talking about an apparently common impression that mental illness is different from something called a "chemical imbalance". Their point was that neither someone for wh

Irrelevant point? Could be accurate, but is all the more reason for them to merge if they think it improves the business. I didn't say "this will make them profitable", OP asked why they would do it and I answered. ¯\(°_o)&#x

Uber did make a bid, and these two signed an agreement. This is in the first paragraph of the article ;)

Going to the source! Using a framework or library? You'll get so much better so much faster if you look at what the authors have done. It's often (I find) easier than looking at random open source projects since you're workin

Why isn't this higher? Give everything a good read before really working. You don't need to remember everything, but you need to know what's there so you don't wind up reinventing wheels, endlessly googling with the wron

The marketing was a total hit where they tried it (including in my area), but it tasted terrible. It might have been conceptually a little "out there" for the early/mid 90s, but lots of people were talking about it, and my fr

PDFs in dropbox. I coincidentally just saved this year's w2 there, and noticed they go aaaaalllll the way back to 2002; I can't believe I was actually diligent in college!

The argument is that they're as powerful, not that they're the same.

Your pre-existing balance is $100. You just deposited another $100, but it's not yet available. You have $100 available, so the "progress bar" is at 50%. Not saying I think it's useful to show as a progress bar, but it&#

We also used to have stronger public institutions that could maintain long-term vision, weren’t subject to constant political upheaval or budget cuts, could reliably staff planning and execution phases, didn’t have to put everything out to

I think you got downvoted because you missed the point -- the harmful laws criminalizing homelessness were struck down, and the court won't hear appeals to put them back; it's a good thing.

As OP in this thread, this is a complete mis-read of the situation; you should re-read the other comments and consider removing this one.

That's really nice to hear -- thanks for the reply! A "Why do we ask this?" link would probably be optimal. I do get the aim, but it took me a while --- I'd wondered if it was simply data collection for more classifier t

Oh! You're the company who -- when I was requesting the non-consensual tome of personal data that Sift keeps on me (and basically everyone else in the US and other coutries) -- refused to accept my straight-faced selfie and instead spe

This is so good! Thanks for sharing :) Now if you could only tell me how to drive to the exit so I can get out of the car...

Great answer. I'm frequently crushed by the weight of day-to-day things, and only recently identified that it's when I intentionally separate myself from them to the point where I'm literally not sure what to do with myself t

“In areas where bison graze, plants contain 50 to 90 percent more nutrients by the end of the summer.” How does this work, thermodynamically speaking? Is it that by being culled, the plants engage in more photosynthesis overall, so there’s

I often list out and sometimes actually write many of the tests that’ll need to pass before I write much code. Definitely not real TDD, but just listing out the cases helps me stay focused, keep from missing things, pick back up after a dis

Couldn’t agree more! It’s so frustrating how the 13” is treated like it doesn’t have to perform.

Hey, you're totally right, I misread the article, conflated electron with phonegap (have never worked with electron and haven't touched iOS in years), thought apple was pushing out some cross platform mobile apps. Totally off-ba

Literally came here about to post an excerpt from the first chapter. Anyway, yeah like how do you wind up this cartoonishly orwellian? Sidewalk’s stated goal with data collection in this project is (roughly) to learn, run experiments, and f

Ok that's not a solution because it's not legal either and doesn't fit delivery trucks. Actual loading zones are very different.

This! What an insane framing from the times. 15 odd years ago the city gradually began converting manhattan avenue parking to more and more commercial loading zones because of double parking, and it worked. But despite proof that it works a
