The standard physical is where your GP teaches you about those things and has you schedule them as needed based on your age and the things they notice during the annual physical.

"It doesn't lie, it just generates lies and printed them to the screen!" I don't think there's a difference.

Firstly, that's a lot of addicts. I was also unable to find what study they were citing on mobile, but I am extremely skeptical. In my city (Philly) we have a population of homeless heroin addicts larger than most towns in the US. Thos

This seems like a terrible idea for anyone. I own a decently sized house in a major city. It's about 100 years old but in above average condition. It still requires considerable time and maintenence. Fortunately I have water, gas, elec

The HN title says something different than the blog post title / intent. The HN title is incorrect and misleading imo. The blog post can be summarized as "you don't need indexes on tiny tables".

I distance myself from my work. My goal is to fulfill requirements to and build the best product. That requires taking consensus into account (even though it is sometimes correct to ignore it). Everything should come down to reason, not ego

You're pretty wrong. No organization can just spin up large international companies. I don't know where you'd get such an idea from. Even the technical parts of Uber alone would take years to replicate. The app frontend? Sure

Well, if we're getting into semantics we could maybe say cooked vs prepared, I'm not sure. There's obvious physical differences between burnt onions and caramelized onions. Similarly, there's obvious physical difference

We have two tables at nearly 2 billion rows for line items on invoices (we aggregate data for a substantial portion of a major industry). We have ~20 tables that are over 100 million rows but less than 1 billion. Looks like another ~20 tabl

You may have changed the color of the meat and killed off the bacteria to make it safe to eat, but you didn't make good chicken. It takes time and lower heat to cook through, create good flavor, and get good texture. Sure you can put a

I ran into this issue when making french onion soup for the first time. I was so mad. The recipe said something like 45 minutes to cook the onions down. No. It took over 2 hours. Was it delicious at the end? Definitely. But I'd have st

Nice! We're at 9TB... I agree that 20M is small enough that I'm not concerned about performance at all.

You can safely go to a billion rows. Use indexes. Don't do silly things like count(*) or select *, select the small data sets you need using your indexes. If you need a full table count for some reason, use a primary key that auto incr

You could say the same about any professional. You do it because it's the right thing to do, and if you don't do it, people are more likely not to work for you in the future.

If a company is making 1 million per employee, why shouldn't the employee get a substantial part of that? I was personally responsible for easily 2 million / year in income at my previous job (and possibly just as much or more at

You are being too literal here. Firstly, there's a large number of software devs that would do just fine in finance. A common refrain is that many of those who would have gone into finance over the past decade or two want into tech ins

When that happens, people will just go back into finance and other high pay fields that require less education and effort.

That doesn't change anything in terms of the flow. It's still refining the input over and over. This is exactly how searching on google works as well. For the case I last tested, there was no correct answer. I asked it to do somet

And that's fine. You'd hire locally, you'd move the company, or you'd allow remote work. But you definitely wouldn't fire someone you just hired and forced to move.

From that article, it sounds like this wouldn't be commingled inventory, as it's both private label and an opt in process. That said the obvious way to avoid amazon commingling conclusively is to buy it directly from the Trezor sh

Herbivores have digestive tracks that are better at breaking down plant matter than ours [1]. They also spend far more time eating [2]. Obviously these are not huge problems these days, since we can grow plants that give us more protein and

When I was in London a few weeks ago the taxi prices were 2-3x the uber prices. Also they'd tell you to fuck off if they didn't want to take you to that location.
