Thank you!

Bookmarked!

Additionally, as I mentioned in another post. Many parts of the world have some of the most creative children and adults and their parents did the opposite.

Not saying either of these is right or wrong, but I am beginning to think creativity, like anything else, is more affected by culture and the surrounding of a child rather than just parenting. Kids are seen more by their peers and teachers than their parents ffs.

I would also like to point out that while there might not be any direct drawbacks, think about others. How many kids put down those smarter to feel better about themselves?

Another disagreement: Not all intelligent people are highly social. Many are introverted.

Intelligent or introverted kids get bullied the most.

Being a good parent is becoming an increasing concern of mine as I am reaching an age where I could probably get married in some parts of the world. Its giving me anxiety, wanting to be not a shitty father...

Digression aside:

> Creativity may be hard to nurture, but it’s easy to thwart.

There are many parents though that do just to opposite by not backing off no? This is sort of generalizing, but kids from Asian countries are a great counterpoint to this. With that in mind, couldn't we also amend that theory, and add culture as a factor?

Furthermore, isn't it also the case that since kids are getting into school earlier than they used to (say 50 or so years ago; random number, don't goto imright.com and disprove it xD), wouldn't they be more susceptible to other kids/teachers? I mean now a days parents see their kids less than their teachers. They basically work 9-5 just like adults.

Addendum: Forgot which famous book this is from: But appraising a child for their hardwork over natural talent is one of the best things we can do. So to that end, creativity should be garnered as something one has to work towards. Man.. I can't wait to test all this shit on my kids.. (obviously joking)

Edit: Change wording and add more meaningful question.

Yes. I think long term/chronic long term issues can be avoided by following those rules. I do not follow any of them which is my problem.

I think baking in lifestyle design or something that educates kids at an early age might help. Back home in India, I remember there used to be a kid show where they explained how mosquitoes and flies spread diseases and how this happens too often when you eat at the street vendors. I stopped doing that (of course, mileage varies)

Its down

I agree and the skeptic in me wonders if we can ever replace the "humans" in these roles with computers that crunch a bunch of numbers. However, just like computers, many doctors base their decision on statistics.

> This has happened many times to me. It's quite scary once you realize it. Thankfully no one ever told me I was pregnant.

I was furious and told them to write my name, age, and gender on top of the leaflet in bold red letters and watched them do it. All subsequent visits started off with me making sure that it was the right chart. Some good doctors ask you name, age before opening the chart. Not this one..

> Care to go into more detail? I'm really interested in knowing how these details.

My mother is a registered nurse. Heck, she was part of the government that trained a school of just nurses. Needless to say, she comes from a time and with experience that would lead her to run around the nurses of today. The digression was to just point out that.. my mom knows her shit.

After injecting her, she said "OH NO" really loud and then quickly left the room after tossing the bulb in the hazard bin.

As she was gone, my mom tried to look for what it was hoping there wasn't anything else in there other than the bulb in question.

She came back and saw my mom looking and accused her of attempting to harm herself and tampering. She never physically touched anything in the room, just was leaning from her seat so she can see the contents of the bin.. What the fuck man!

> This is just called making sure your business is recurrent.

Yeah, this is why I wished Homeopathy and all those kind of things were actually realistically helpful. I think the problem is that Doctors are no different than road workers that periodically patch the cracks on the highway. Doctors need to prevent shit instead of patching shit.

Edit: Spelling error and remove colloquial tinfoil paragraph xD

It ain't perfect in Canada either.

I remember losing my hairs and getting patches of super smooth bald spots. Super embarrassing for a kid in a bad neighbourhood and bad school.

Went to the doctor she looked at my charts and said I was super low on iron so low that I might even die if it continues to lower. I was given iron pills.

Two months after I went to the doctor again and said my hair patches are not fixed. She looks at my chart again and said... hey you don't have low iron you have perfect iron and I never told you to take any pills.

Then upon investigation it was noted that the staff gave her wrong chart; of a pregnant woman who had a similar "feminized" version of my name.

Edit: Addendum: finally I was sent to a skin specialist who injected me with steroids for months until my patches were fixed. They said I had alopecia.

I was furious what if the said person had cancer and they started chemo on me?

Same doctor once injected my mom with the wrong fluid. To this day we don't know. We filed a complaint but she then resorted to personal attacks in her report and the "college of medicine" or whatever it's called didn't do anything. Till this day my mom has a red/purple bump on her arms.

Finlly, most other docs don't even check me out they listen to symptoms and say it's nothing, it will go away, etc while looking miserable (no doctor should watch House MD lol). Other times they solve the symptoms by tossing prescriptions at me. Said symptoms always keep coming back and I keep getting more of the same prescriptions.

Thanks for the free health"care" Canada.

Interesting read. I like how they took the time to put an update and clarify about what was not tested. Good journalism.

Additionally: I wanted to plug (not involved with the project) PI-Hole [1]. You route all traffic through the Raspberry PI which points to custom DNS that filters ads on their end, reducing data usage significantly. This leads to ad block on all devices without the need to install custom software on any of them.

Edit: append reference

Heres a question, I know a lot of companies are investing their time/money into working on self-driving cars.. but from what I see, a lot of the cars use the same sensor. LIDAR and cameras being the main sensors. Of course, we have already seen Tesla perform well with these sensors.

However, my question: Is/Was this industry only held back by sensing?

edit: Restructure paragraph

Regards,

I agree with you. Apple does have the necessary skills to make a self-driving car. I did cringe at the 'build a vertical product' part because they have not been doing that lately.

I am looking forward to see what they come up with.

Wow this was down voted when I made an actual point? Or just because it didn't come out right?

You all fail to realize that some times you have to write TODOs for other people to add their parts in the code you are writing.

Same, but I use AG.

Why is this above topics that are many times higher than the current topic rating (17 points vs other topics with 40-50 points)

Mermaids?

So many up votes (thanks for taking the bait!)

But I really am wondering:

> Can we not have low barrier to entry for creating native apps? Are there any solutions/frameworks that one can utilize? Is it just a matter of poor documentation/support from OS makers? What is it?

Just an addendum: One of the pages rendered (finished loading), after which suddenly all stopped loading and "crashed".

The rendered page was an Easter offer..

Seriously.. What the fuck

Edit: Wow, so many views already. I think this site likely has some sort of crawlers.

Regarding Uber braggers (pun intended): Who cares! If they build it they will not come.

Startup tech writers, take note. This write up has been more helpful than many in the past. Thank you very much Reddit developers

So this takes JSON and maps it to namedtuples?

Silly question, what happens with Unicode?

Thanks captain obvious!

What about Slack webpage?

There was also node-webkit. Never forget.

Yeah, this was my problem. I do not think its a good idea not to have some sort of a backup. I want to take the leaps of faith that one needs to make to start a startup (or heck, even join one in its infancy), but having this shitty piece of paper that will act as a cushion is good. At least, I know that if I start a family, I won't be feeding them ramen as well.

I am... really worried about that part of one's life, being ~24/25.

Thank you,

I agree with #1 100%. I actually took a year off and found a startup in a field where I had an idea for a startup but decided not to do; statistically, it would've been a challenge.

In any case, while my friends were doing co-op (which is like an internship but you get paid and companies get tax benefits), I found and worked at a full-time job. They were busy commenting legacy code while I got to learn so much about everything. This company I worked at even trusted me to fly out and meet directly with clients who would show up with a team of 30 or so Engineers. I truly love this company and I am going back to them.

Regarding #2, I guess I must have struck a universal magic cord and lucked out! But my worry is that, 5-6 years down the line, if I won't be able to goto a company like Tesla/SpaceX for a) having shit grades, b) not getting experience in their field (my startup is more CS/CE) but my degree is in Systems Engineering.

Risk being some people go on them and commit suicide and some people experience psychosis?

Please don't downplay shit, if it works for you it is great but its not for everyone.

Psychedelics are unfortunately not for everyone. Some people have experienced permanent psychosis.

MATH courses typically have large student count, thus needing multiple professors and sections.

BTW, What I said is anecdotal.
