Edit:
The Retrophin complaint also contains more detail about what happend with Merril Lynch:
24. Shkreli also had to contend with Merrill Lynch, which had sued him and MSMB Capital in connection with the Orex Trade (the “Merrill Lynch Arbitration”). Shkreli and MSMB Capital had entered into a settlement agreement with Merrill Lynch that required Shkreli and MSMB Capital to execute confessions of judgment in favor of Merrill Lynch. The confessions of judgment would not be filed if Shkreli and MSMB Capital timely paid the agreedupon settlement amount. Shkreli funded the Merrill Lynch settlement – and avoided the filing of the confessions of judgment – by causing a $900,000 investment in Retrophin equity securities made by MSMB Healthcare to be recharacterized as a “loan,” causing the “loan” to be repaid with interest, and using the “loan” proceeds together with other money taken from Retrophin to pay Merrill Lynch. See generally ¶¶47-58, infra.
- If found a boilerplate HTML layout and wanted to insert some stuff into it, I would use copy-paste.
- If I were editing a function to enqueue data, and I wanted to send it to two queues, I would re-type the 2nd enqueue command to avoid blindly copying over an inappropriate parameter, which is the kind of thing a tired mind might gloss over.
Money going to the U.S. Federal government goes to: 24% Social Security (i.e. the dole), 24% to the least efficient healthcare system in the world, 17% to the military to drop bombs on poor people.
If the majority, or even 25%, of government spending was creating economic growth and opportunity, I don't think anyone would have a problem with it. This is a country that was begun by a tax war, so if there is an obligation to the past, an aggressive response to tax policy is certainly part of it.
Supporting 4k would also be a lot more demanding on the graphics "card" as well.
Now I just take Melatonin in the evening ( http://www.gwern.net/Melatonin ) and sleep somewhat normally.
EDIT: I also use the flux app, and I reduced my coffee consumption significantly, now down to zero, but melatonin had the quickest and most observable effect.

Body: HOW ARE YOU DOING
FWIW, I've seen this kind of game before and I was expecting it to be something simple.
For example, what if Uber "builds" (finances and badges) their own car, and you really like it (no reason it can't still have a steering wheel). What if they are willing to enter a one year agreement where it is cleaned and parked in your driveway at 4AM every Mon-Fri morning to take you to work when you're ready. Or if they have a parking lot near your office with 100 cars where you can just walk up to any car, open the door, and go. Or if they have an automated electric vehicle charging network over the whole country. It will take a while to discover what really matters for a AI-car network.
EDIT: now to mention the unavoidable legal issues, which to a certain extent are similar to what Uber is already dealing with and "resolving" quickly according to reports.
**I don't think you can depend on jumping in instruction 3, because you don't control the value of mem. 1, it's input. So if mem. 3 = 0, instructions 2 and 3 will always lead to instruction four.
- inst. 4 should compare 0,4 , register 1 is unknown at this pt.
- inst. 3 should jump to 5

Edit * 2nd try 1. Read chapter subtitles subsubtitles, etc, and the summary if there is one at the beginning or end.
2. Go thru the chapter reading the first sentence of each subsection
3. Again, reading the first sentece of each paragraph
4. Again, reading everything
And for bookmarking and hilighting I have 4 categories: important, interesting, unanswered question, reference.
And if I have goals for reading, I write them on the back few pages and fill in information as I find it.
I usually do this on paper, I still find it kind of awkward to do in the Preview app or whatever, and it is not possible for me on a phone.
(anyone with other documentation that could easily be referenced in a salary negotiation?)
Another thing: I have an easy copy-paste response to recruiter cold contacts on linkedin where I say basically: I'm committed to my current company, but I'm always interested in real salary information, if you have something you can share I'd be happy to keep you in mind in the future. ... sometimes that gets me a number.
Having accurate information that you trust is half the battle IMO.
