Desistance, i.e. "being convinced out of transness" is perfectly common, as mentioned in the article. I'm not aware of any studies on how therapy can affect this, but even if the therapy was merely helping the patient cope with their dysphoria for a period before exploring other options, that seems a far cry from saying "just deal with it".
I hear this recommended quite frequently, but I don't see it practiced much, nor do I really understand what is being recommended. No matter how you wrote your first API you can always introduce a /v2/ later, and no matter how good you get at versioning it's still much worse than maintaining a well-designed backwards-compatible API. If anyone has recommended reading on this I'd love to check it out.
Except he did play him, and only after that loss did he withdraw from the tournament and refuse to play with him again. The implication is clear to all that Carlsen suspects foul play in that game, I don't see the point in being coy about that now.
"jethrodaniel" does not appear to have the copyright to offer that license, but it's hard for Github to determine that in general, so I doubt they would be liable for the error.
I agree with your general point, but I have to add that that example "compromise" sounds highly unsatisfactory for the wife. Not only does she have to accept the dirty dishes, but the simple task of putting them in the dishwasher immediately has been replaced by the fraught emotional labour of managing and enforcing a cleanup rota. I think the OP is right that he should have just taken the L on this issue, and perhaps on some other standard of cleanliness she should be the one to compromise.
In my experience cold starts don't affect the p99 if you have substantial traffic, because you have enough lambdas consistently running that cold start rate is ~0.1%. P99.9 also matters though!
Do you have any solution for RSS to Kindle? I would happily pay to have my RSS feeds delivered straight to my Kindle. In fact I just today paid for https://app.newslettertokindle.com/ for very similar reasons.
Good point. I guess the reason the author finds removing from lists to be relevant is because there is no Set structure in the Go standard library. They should use a `map[t]bool`, but that is non-obvious to many programmers.
It depends how paranoid you are. If you believe your audio is so valuable that Amazon would create a separate hardware model for you and those like you, and would succeed in keeping that a secret, then yeah you still shouldn't buy an Echo. You will also not want any other always-on devices with microphones and network connections, like a phone or laptop. 99.9% people are not in this category.
No you're incorrect, and drawing a false distinction between spending company money on growth instead of profits, and other business expenses. There is no distinction for tax purposes, nor should there be.
There are legitimate reasons for a valuable company to make little to no profits. Namely re-investment in growth. Your proposal would make it impossible for businesses to spend todays profits on growth for tomorrow, and would thereby dramatically slow economic growth.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but it seems to me that it's the consumer, not Amazon, that's being asked to pay extra fees. The consumer bought an Audiobook, Amazon wants to provide read-along transcription for that audiobook, but the publisher wants the consumer to have to pay extra for that.
Uber has no moat, so cannot possibly exploit a monopoly. The hardest part of their service to replicate is the drivers, and since they're all contractors they are free to work for Uber's competitors!
Even if Uber gained 100% share of car rides in an area, if they decided to exploit that by increasing their prices it would be relatively easy to create a competing company and undercut them.
This is a common sentiment, but seems wrong to me. It doesn't take a genius to recognise a spam or phishing email either, and yet no company has created a perfect email filter.
It's not neglect, it's a very hard problem, as is any problem where you are trying to make an inference with limited information controlled by an adversary. Amazon could spend billions on incredibly sophisticated fake-review-detection algorithms, but they still couldn't stop sellers finding real amazon customers and paying them to buy and review their products.
