Could you point me to a wait-free and bounded RCU implementation? If not, how is RCU + HP (with no explicit barriers) the same as HP? HP is already useful for lock-free readers (ignoring traversals). | r/systems | comment | r/systems | 2011-04-19 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VydTNhenFiYVAtaWstWllMeUZ0SVp6SW1UUkxuNXYzYVYtTkxfcEJQaHRmUEVMZmljUElPSjdYLTZBNUxEbFhGVWM1bkVSZnNXdGZZekktM1dIcHN4b3c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUzVwVHlBTkhsM01Bd0Nhb1ZrVjExOFhWZ2tHSWd4X24zYi1lOWZIcF9ZSVN2UFI2X0Q3Tnlqb0xzbmlWZG9vczNhNU9GX1pQc29Vazd2OEhSaWFPVzhfeU1lTWxRNXpGUk54MEdGS2VTbjczb1VpdWItZ3h6aDBmeXRGXy1Hb2VWV2poWEdFS1VZdloyMHpaWF9LdGloTlhOdFJueG93bVdwTTdrMzdLRzZCbURhc0pGNnhVaklma1d0aW5UYnhfek01bG9iQ25VOHZLM3d1M3hRRXZWQT09 |
Write a function in the language of your choosing that, when passed a purchase price and cash paid outputs a list of currency given as change. Example:
`makeChange(19.74, 20)`
Output:
1 quarter
1 penny
Obviously, there exists various currencies besides US denominations. Let's also assume that the largest bill given as change is 20.00. | r/programmingchallenges | post | r/programmingchallenges | 2011-04-19 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyNXZ0RWJmNHpBa0o3dEdIa0daelV0MmlvMFVpMXlJcE1uV0pOdENWVHlnUGJMYjd0X3cwdDZxemZ5MHNTaDlWLUFtYUhpTWNNVXdGN0I0RTdrMWNyM1E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Zpblg5WE9VMHUwRS1YYW81aXpoMS1hUVptT2g1T1BpV09xOFNoVWpfWVBVek1YdXB5VHgtdDl4dUxTSE5NRmswTng4UThZM0hyaVhPTTlfTWN5MW1XRHpPY0lVaFQ4bG9fbnJhcVZGZjZON211aDBuZF9WMV9PazhDLTRzZ19yTDhvazV1RDg4YUdiREMwSmY5WkZ2UWpFR0tDMEhkWGtYajV5ZGpQQ0l3WThKOW8xVExkdXZ0OVpBZGhNaU1CaWxWejFaOXlUREY3ejFPSHQ4QXdvd28tZz09 |

Hi everybody. I love this subreddit, but I can't cook (the last time I tried to make Ramen I burned the water). I recently just upgraded my server, and I'm more able to cater to specific subreddits. I wanted to add a section for you guys of pictures that you use often. I'm thinking of things like spatulas, knives, bowls, pans, pots, slices of bread (???), etc. Looking through the comic-recipes people have made, it seems like almost every one of them requires specific pictures of that meal being made, so I'm not sure how realistic this is, but I figured I'd offer.
Basically, is there anything I can do to make it easier for you guys? If you can send me pictures, or at the very least, links to pictures, I'll start adding them to the "fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuud" section right away. If there's anybody that wants to help me make these pictures (transparent backgrounds, resizing, etc), I certainly won't say no.
Thanks for your time! | r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuud | post | r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuud | 2011-04-19 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyQ2tLLUNXWHRsanozdVRacjVfX2FGV19IUjI2N2U1N2lvSmtjZTJtckw4MGNWaDVQbUVwbk1LUDRReHY5WmUtQTVpbXpEVFB4U29UTmlhcjZFekE0VWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUnpiV05SYW8xUWVXY0FpclNUTnZrdkstbzNYN2FmbU1ENzlaRGhXZkhGLUNRUXNabXN2TTk0c0ZzMVE1MGx5R3JrRjhHbng3blpFTl8tUmppSmVHTDg1VlE3QVJsMV9BaTBEMHgzN015X2xUc2RFeDZ5a21FNVNjWmJKRGU1THhDUWJZenVTd1plVWdQak40U2V2N1dfVWdIMHp1MTJlUkxibXI0STc0Z1N1TWw2VjJ1NDQ0UDVJX25GSnlDN0MxVVRSQmx2dkhmN1BtYTZfRlVXemEtQT09 |

It's funny though, even the creators admit they had major problems with writing the show with out money in the society. They admitted that was one of their biggest obstacles to write around. And really when they used latinum bars in space, they never talk about earth trading with other planets. | r/mises | comment | r/mises | 2011-04-20 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyeUpWN2VUTDg2d01odXRfNkpwbnBCWU5yU0xQOFVPWmREeWtJem1WRU9RaWZTN3o2SGRHWEpIWV8yUENlYXF0ZGtkZ1VHVS1mUUY0emUtYzc4LTBmSnc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpaXAtM3pQeGFvWXlsajIzSnJxdVNJdlFvblhFbFQ4Y3NZcURhSGR1NThVSXdhM09NSFZycUx6enZtQ01VN21KX3FFRHRFZUo3ZW94S0lXSV8yNVlzZGp3bDJDekpZYTVGWTBHSFhIMFNlWEE4ckFDcnV2X2Y1cVExX0JQOVJhRml5ZGJFNEdMRW5JaUtYMzJjZmtNWHhGb1dzNEl5Nk5HYk1QTzJJYVdOWUlIVzhGS1BUV1M0M0FvY1V4ejNJdnBv |
Dear Photoit,
On a recent trip, I took some photos of red tulips and here they are: http://imgur.com/a/kvzcw
The reds look overblown and they over-saturate the image. Why is this? How can I fix this with PP and how do I avoid it the next time I take a photo.
I tried using Hue/Saturation and Color Balance adjustments but they don't seem to work. Can I please get some advice?
Equipment: Nikon D3000, 18-55 kit lens, UV filter

If you need a sympathetic ear, I'm willing to listen. I'll buy you a beer and see what I can do to help you out.
As far as a bed (if needed), I can't promise you a stay at my house, but if you're really in need, I can help out with a hotel room for a few nights. | r/atheisthavens | post | r/AtheistHavens | 2011-04-20 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyTkhnZTdnRGczU3hOUkJ6VVpXMFZpdGFvelRYUDE2aml1UWNma01XOUxUX0hFQlhEVkgxS25kY0JBRVAzQnZGTWRWNE15a192Y0ZYOUpDdG85VGhBSGc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpVEVWT0wyUEd6Q01mU3JVTEkyR0Y5NXVWYTlkS3RyX3NTclZWZURQU29WYUN2NkhPZk5Yb1lMWTR1Z2U3UWM0MUdFRHVjTWVLMTFxMk5WM2JXWnhrVzFpRlJkRG5YaUZlUDg3bDdNVWRydGxLZld5QmVSTzBGYlFOYnMwTS1YTE9Zdy1RSVF4VWJVUVB3VEZaNzJmQVdKS3N2WEthdkNXZmV4aTJTUXpvcDc5dVlESWNmMHVlODM2cExvY25tSTZZQmxCSklYd0hvTjhZWWo4VU5ZUkpQZz09 |

You are renting a kayak to travel down a river. Ever mile, there is a trade post. The price to rent a kayak to travel from one trade post to another is given by f(x, y), which is completely arbitrary. For example, the cost to travel from the first post to the second, f(1,2), could equal 7, while f(1,3) could equal 3.
Your challenge is to find the cheapest cost down the river. You should make a randomized 2x2 array beforehand containing all the costs. The method signature should be (in Java):
public int findCheapestCost(int goal_destination, int[][] costs)

I am talking mostly about 35mm CR-41. I tried a few local shops and big stores (Target, Walgreens, etc.) with poor results. Scratches on the negatives, bad color, overexposure, etc.
I would also like to have high-quality digital copies of the pictures, but most places seem to return relatively small files.

Currently, I've got a Canon IS880 that I got for Christmas several years back. I'm looking to get a new camera which will get some more use (mainly for a international trip in August). Everything I've seen on the camera looks pretty good and these extra features are on it that I really like:
Timelapse (a feature that I've always wanted)
Manual exposure (a fun one to have)
Manual focus (probably a little odd on a compact but still nice to have)
Compact (fitting in my pocket is pretty much a must so a DSLR is unfortunately out of the question right now...)
I've been looking at the Samsung TL350 for awhile now and it seems like it would be a fun camera to have. Reviews and comparisons to other compacts usually seem to favor the TL350. There was a $199 deal about a week ago that I unfortunately missed it but I have a $50 gift certificate to Amazon I could use. I cannot find any compact that I like better and I think that it looks like best to boot. Again, a DSLR doesn't feel like an option right now due to their bulk when compared to a compact.
I think that there are some better cameras for taking low-light pictures (like at night) out there but I really don't know much of anything about cameras. What does Reddit think about it?

I enjoy optimizing my previous designs to achieve the least number of cycles possible. However, currently the only way for me to find the latest least cycle solution to a level is through uploaded youtube videos. But there are probably a lot of good solutions that just aren't uploaded. So, here's a list of some of my fastest times that I would love to see beaten. If you have something faster, or just plain cool, share it!

I'm sort of on the fence with eugenics, tending to think that it's a good idea, my only big concern being its possible corruption. This guy makes some good points in that forced institutionalization is corrupt but allowed and that eugenics, if corrupt, should still be allowed. But when he says that eugenics WOULDN'T be corrupt with the reasoning:
>..but no two IQ tests ever differ much about how intelligent someone is.
..that's incorrect. Again, the guy makes some good points, but to say that eugenics wouldn't be corrupt is a bit far. | r/race_realism | comment | r/Race_Realism | 2011-04-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyZ1dseGNPcEtqYWJuZ2tVREV2SUdOQWprbGNRVDlvcUVja2ZKQjhERGEtOUZiSWhvdkZpb0lrRFZuZHJRUG4yRnZVLXlKMXp4LUg0cXBtcEd3emNzNGc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpS0ZlUnQ0TzliVkZsaVVnNlRmMmxPeDVGWndjc2JmM1ZOUVF1X0pTSHpDQ0lObWYtemphcG9UZElGcWdzanF2M1lWMkx4Y2E3YlBXbjVIYzFLR1oxUUJhTV8zSzBnbnpZQ28tdmNvbENudlNRdFMzUUx4RUptdDQ3cGdVdjUyRG5PcWU3bHdTSmU2TnBPTXdmNWRVZndJb2JCeTE4Mi1QNGtCS1lzalY1bHdjYi1PdzJKVEtFY3BKUm5sVGZCSnUz |

I've been comparing the D5000 and the D90 and it would seem that one of the main differences is the presence of a focus motor in the D90, allowing for a wider lens selection (manual focusing aside). From your guys' experience, is it worth it to make the jump to the D90 for this reason, or is it better to stick with the D5000?
I also realize that these are Nikon cameras but obviously I would love to hear feedback from anyone kind enough to give advice.
Edit: Thanks for the advice so far everyone. This has been really helpful and I think I'm leaning much more towards the D90 now. | r/photoit | post | r/photoit | 2011-04-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VybTlDVUxyejN4RUNLSk80c25URmE2M001S1BLM1lYbnR4VmI4OTd5RzQ3amcweXZlSG5KZUl6TzJ1a2s1cW9WakNCR3Z3MnRPalgwYkd5d3pfM3FhSkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpeFRFT0F6OTc1M0lCMWE3WXBhQWppWkcwSG44NjI2b3dMQjNZX3FncGhjcUl0Skx3RTVWX0JzdUJtVUIzMEg0QjB5QVdld2pQSW1YcVYwLVFodFBtbndEU004SzJ2R1BKNDRLNmZ2dm94NTZVQjN0d1dSamdvSW0yM1J2cnZMRmMzZ0c5VklzZ0dzeG4tVVVIWnpnU255V3VVc2dPNWxXcU9QbHh1T1dpNG12eWp5QzhLSEtSZHp0VlR2aGozVS1y |
I would really like to move into distributed systems work. I'm working on some hobby projects to pick up experience and I found some great advice in the replies to http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2290180 but I think the best way to learn is to get my foot in the door somewhere and learn on the job.
Which companies/projects should I be looking at? Here's what I've got so far:
NoSQL: riak@basho, couchdb@couchbase
Big data: hadoop, disco@nokia, loads of analytics/advertising companies
Anti-censorship/darknets: tor, freenet, i2p
Media: bittorrent, p2p-next, tribler, playdar
Communication: telecoms in general, openbts, skype, twilio, telehash

Finally finished up the novel. Was happily surprised that it was even better on a second reading than on my first about a year ago. In particular, the whole point about gender that Le Guin was making stood out much more clearly, as I was better able to look past the pronouns used and pay attention to the characters' actions and motivations.
As punninglinguist mentioned in his thread on [anthropology](http://www.reddit.com/r/SF_Book_Club/comments/gsadg/lhod_anthropology_in_lhod/), the book is very light on plot and heavy on worldbuilding. I remember the first time reading through feeling that the final trek across the ice felt hugely out of place in the novel, as if her editor had forced UKLG to put _some_ sort of immediate threat and conflict into the story. Now I see it as something somewhat integral: that shared hardship is what allows Genly Ai to fully appreciate the Genethians for what they are, not what he sees them as.
Final barely-related thought: I watched a documentary about Earnest Shackleton's final ill-fated expedition to the South Pole where he and his men spend months stuck in the ice and then at sea in life rafts while in the middle of the final section of LHoD. Damned if LHoD isn't a much more compelling story about human nature than the documentary, which was mostly 'and then this terrible thing happened, and then this slightly more terrible thing happened, and then yet another even more terrible thing happened!' with hardly any mention to what the humans involved felt or where thinking or what their relationships were like. LHoD gets it right in this respect, that when in a long conflict against the world, what defines your memories of the time is the people you had at your side. | r/sf_book_club | post | r/SF_Book_Club | 2011-04-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyRmpBT3RCUDdoOWl0VlpBRlpBRDhIakVRVFRWbklfYm1Lb2J1Zm5LbnJpR0swOFRBbHI2S00xWFFFUkthUHU5M2R6UW9JQjRrcEtnVDE5TmlGNjhGS2c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpY1dncGNOUm5ZZmtMeDVqSW1NYXgtSjRkVUtkWnF3RExyMUVYYWhfTy11bnBjcy1ZNm5fT2dyNDVqajBPOHdDc0tUWVl4dmlfQnVoRkRNT2d2dVNKTjVrVXJlc3NUeV9DMTJJRDk3SjhaYTNiUkhfLTJZZmZmZHZpeHBSSVVLYzJBVmtEbjhUdWRHNGRobkdHN2RBWTlVTXUxMl83TVpuMVhFYXVwZDJwdjBXNHFLb2ltcDV4OUU5WFFnU3BzM3pDMzFYaDIySjBVTWh5dTE1YTFZR1UtZz09 |
Is this intended functionality? A blue waldo is capable of grabbing an atom at the moment that it’s moving over it, but a red waldo seems incapable of such. Similarly, atoms held by the red waldo don’t seem to want to bond while moving. (This only applies when the trigger is on the blue chain.)
Does any of that make sense? is it a bug, or intended functionality? Instead of happening “simultaneously” on a given cycle/square, it seems that red’s action “happens” *first*, and then blue’s happens. (For instance, red waldo moves over a square with ‘grab,’ and triggers grab “before” anything is there; then, non-concurrently, the blue waldo causes something to appear there.) | r/spacechem | post | r/spacechem | 2011-04-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyWGdheHpQUkpuUmoxYmJVanU0MWloZlBjNEY1TndTOTVFTzZCQXBzR0Q0czRKbTZocnlBRnNab1lybHpDQkxkSzBXLWZPUnJ0c2M3STh3dXpqT19RT2c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpVnBUUEJBNkhIbnRXUjZYcHRXM2ZXY1RNVU13NHUwSXBuZ2cyNnJzY0xKc1Fia2tGR2phd0JUcmh2MmhDcktzZWowSFAweEw1Vl9sazVqeG9vTjV3ZmswRkk0VUt6OEMxb3ctYkFlakwwR1pYa2dydW1xcUtsaTNabENGV3ZOY1BiY3VRNkg5OGZLelhsemlqeG43SGc5ZFZ6cXB2cGl5UDFYbkNBeWpOYjBpbkNmSzBYeldwRkpPMWZSZWlCNnJ4 |

April has yet another week to go, but we wanted to get the May book selection off quickly this time around instead of waiting for the last minute. There are a few open threads on _Left Hand of Darkness_ still, and a bunch to talk about, so don't let this or even the changing of the month stop you from posting about. Any of our books are fair game to talk about at any time.
Rules are as usual: please upboat only to make the selection process easier for us, and if you don't think a book would make a good selection reply letting everyone know instead. I'll be submitting an unusual selection this month, but feel free to put into the hat anything that you think would make for good reading. | r/sf_book_club | post | r/SF_Book_Club | 2011-04-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyLVdzaTE0di1HYzdIenk5Uk5UOGFmLTFJSDd4OERhWlVIM3BmNnU0Y2tCMEtQQWhSRTh5Rkl1elp4WHJtTGh2NDNqb1kyQWJNZmRxRzMxeUJSUy1OcVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpcHNibHZZSmxiR1VOdGJsaGVxZDZGRzFNMi16azlsQXBwUENReHVRczVvY0xmNjhNSTl6MEkxRFdnYlZ5RVplQl9HeEZMUEJkcnlTVEFyVjE1eTV2ZHhoclhWLTctV1NJbVlubVlUTVpxVkx5NHNnUGNQcGZyenpibUpDRUdaaWJaTnhaaENiTWFBOEhjVXFwWWktbEVfMURkOFhpcUxncl9TRFQ2ME13Q1lDekZGaFQzbHF3S2VScm5KQm1waWdBT19hRVRtYTh0bkw3cWtudHM4ZEY0QT09 |
Write a function in the language of your choosing that accepts a non-negative integer `n` and returns a string containing the n^th row of [Pascal's Triangle](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_triangle).
EDIT: There really is no reason the function has to return a string, you could just as easily print to stdout.
Example:
pascal(4)
Returns:
"1 4 6 4 1"
Bonus: If you'd prefer, compute the n^th layer of [Pascal's Pyramid](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal%27s_pyramid) and return an array of strings as follows:
EDIT: See note above regarding return type.
pascal3(3)
Returns:
{"1",
"3 3",
"3 6 3",
"1 3 3 1"}

Hey guys, my friend Alex is trying to raise money for Invisible Children. To those of you that don't know the Invisible Children Protection Plan is a fund that seeks to protect innocent kids from abduction by Joseph Kony and his rebel army in Uganda.
As part of his awareness campaign Alex hasn't said a single word for the last 24 hours and he is only needs $5 more to hit his target. I'm hoping some individuals will come through!
TL;DR: My friend needs $5 more for his Invisible Children fundraiser!

I remember being 8 years old, sitting in the back of my parents car with my face pressed against the window. I stared in astonishment at the full moon as it chased us. I strained to keep it in sight, catching glimpses of it between the buildings we whizzed past. Enthralled, I started thinking about the Moon, about what it was and how it got there.
“What?” my mom said, apparently hearing me mumble.
“Uh, nothing... the Moon. Do you...uh...what is it? I mean... where did it come from?”
“God put it there.”
“Oh.”
And that was that. My inquisitive, young mind wanted to know more about what I had been looking at. I wanted to ask When, Where, Why and How but my search for knowledge was brought to an abrupt halt with Who. God, apparently, that's who.
I gave it up. Fortunately for me, the Moon didn't.
----------------------------------------------
One Saturday, the autumn after I graduated from St. Patrick's, I am driving towards home with the sun just dipping under the horizon behind me. As I drive up and over the rise of a hill, I am struck by the sight of a full moon rising over the horizon. Huge. Red. It hovered in the far-off distance, centered directly over the road. Awestruck, having never seen the Moon look so big and so red, I slow the car so I can take it all in. I see a darkness creeping onto the left side of the Moon and I have to pull over. I stop the car and watch as the darkness grows, it's leading edge an arc moving slowly across the Moon from left to right. I realize that I am watching an eclipse and I mumble, “Awesome.”
The next day, I headed to what had become my favourite place in the world: the library. Having finished my Catholic school education, I decided that my Sundays were better spent outside of church. I was largely free of the constant reminders that I was expected to blindly adhere to the teachings of my faith. As such, seeing something as awesome as a full lunar eclipse wouldn't propel me to exclaim how great God was; instead, it would pique my curiosity and drive me to seek further understanding of it's nature. I walked into that cathedral of knowledge that is the public library and looked for the Astronomy section.
---------------------------------------------------
I have a daughter now and maybe one evening, when the Moon is full, we'll be walking and she'll excitedly point out that big white ball shining in the night sky. Her curiosity may be piqued in the same way mine was and she may start asking questions the same way I did. The difference is that when my child comes to me with a spark of inquisitiveness, I will not dampen it with non-answers such as “God did it.”
Now I'm no Moonologist or anything but throughout the years, I've picked up bits of knowledge about our biggest satellite and have grown to appreciate the Moon and the intricacies of its existence and it's important relationship with Earth and human life.
If she asks about it, maybe I'll tell her the Moon goes around the Earth, the same way that the Earth and the other planets goes around the Sun. Gravity holds it all together. It pulls things towards other things and bigger things have more gravity and smaller things have less. The Earth is four times bigger than the Moon and much heavier, so gravity is about six times stronger here. That means on the Moon you can jump six times higher! The Moon's gravity also causes the tides because the water that's on the side closer to the Moon gets pulled towards it and rises. The water on the further side feels less of the Moon's gravity so it rises on that side too. The land experiences tides and bulges out too, but we can't really feel it.
Maybe she'll ask what the Moon is made of and I'll tell her that it's made up of the same stuff that the Earth is made of. She'll ask how and I'll tell her that way, way back, when the Earth was brand new, another planet that was about twice the size of the Moon, slammed into Earth. When this happened, tons and tons of dirt and rocks flew up into space. It all started going around the Earth because of gravity. The rocks have gravity too, remember, so they started pulling towards each other and then they got bigger and bigger until eventually, after millions of years, it formed one enormous rock: the Moon.
Before that other planet slammed into the Earth, it was much different from what it looks like now. It was all hot and smoky and there was acid rain and there was no way we could live here if it was still like that. I think the Earth's angle might have been different, too. Now, the Earth is tilted and that's why globes are all slanty. The tilt is what causes the seasons and the weather and the climate. So maybe the same thing that made the Moon (that planet slamming into Earth) made the world a much nicer place and made it possible for life to form and for us to be here staring up at the sky.
She might remark on how bright it looks and I'll tell her that the Moon doesn't actually have it's own light; we see light that comes from the sun and bounces off the Moon towards us. I'll tell her that the Moon looks white, but it's actually a really dark grey and only looks brighter because we look at it against the blackness of space. It looks different on different days because it's going around us and the light from the sun hits it from different sides and we can only see the part that's lit up. Standing there on the sidewalk, I'll pick her up and hold her facing me.
I'll start to spin slowly and say, “You see how the light from the street lamp changes on my face? It's the same thing with the Moon and the Earth.”
“They're dancing too?” she might say.
“Haha, yeah, they're dancing too! The Moon is dancing with the Earth and the Earth and the other planets are dancing around the Sun and the Sun and the stars are dancing around our galaxy. It's all just a big, beautiful dance.”
--------------------------------------------------
Maybe one night, after she's grown up and struck out on her own, she'll see the full moon and think about the things I've told her. Maybe she'll look up at that moon and she'll think of me and know that I might be somewhere looking up at that same moon too. Hopefully, like her father, she'll be amazed at the wonder and complexity of it all and search for answers that further her understanding. Doing so, maybe she'll be able to appreciate it all the more. This might lead her to want to understand other things, maybe everything, better and will teach her not to settle for lazy explanations borne out of indoctrination. My own indoctrination lead to many, many years of ignorance. My daughter won't be burdened by religion; she won't come to the same roadblocks. She will have the freedom to seek truth instead of simply being taught “truths.” Thankfully my hunger for knowledge was greater than my faith. I broke free and haven't looked back. I was told that, with God, the sky was the limit. Looking up at the Moon and the stars and at the beauty of it all, I realized they set the bar way too low. | r/thegreatproject | post | r/thegreatproject | 2011-04-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyX3pHS3hEcEkwMjYtaHgxeFhpdHhXMDZyVER3N0NoR3FxYk5jSGNDLWJrcjVuajNrUzFCNlByeVpSWlpRUjB5elRlcVVWWGVBWVBoQ1dpcVBzZVNGRlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpWWJFVjZMOVhHZHRNc255dERiQklJRGpDeURsWlMyNUZVNzhQTFlTREExRXk4aUdqeHNUTnc4amYyVzV4Y2toVy1UVE9DTU5jenBjd3VaWnVlcldwUkhjdm5DMGg5WXFpdTZpSHIxOVFrZGdaZkQyd2RkOV9nVGhKX1F4ZjlYbENNYnhzSS1kZjlDQXVOQzFrZm45NXFyWUZ5QzdlLWNaa1BNaTBRZGY3bHVpMUV0TUU2UWdwZS03bXdqYkhqdTkzTFRZSUlpTjN5OFNCMjc2NnNpb0tWUT09 |
Hey /r/COBOL
I was just recently hired at a company to make a light web version of a ACUCOBOL application that they wrote 15+ years ago. It's been around for a very long time and works great and they still actively maintain it.
The web version is just going to be a central searchable database (for mobile devices). My boss said he can export his data very easily to XML. I basically want him to POST said file to our web server via HTTPS. I will handle processing and returning an xml response. I don't know anything about COBOL, and they don't know anything about the web. I Google'd around for a minute but couldn't find anything more than CURL. CURL is fine, but I don't want to have to rely on using an external application if possible.
Does anyone have any links, suggestions, libraries or anything that might help us out? Thanks guys :) | r/cobol | post | r/cobol | 2011-04-26 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyOVBwN1FmaXdWVnNSMHFaQU03M21nb0FudV96YXFBT2NSVl9FNEZqaUxlaU4xZFBzN3MxcldYdC13dDlVNE1MOEtNUUp2SndfOHRaZWFzSDJjbjh0WUE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpVzNzWEpRalJXbm9ScEVjVTRNalpuV2dlY0VNODRaOUJ0MWI5MXFiTndPQ3VkeVBUaGVlWkFKaldIVkpTaVRNSGJkQWNJWDlhM2p2SnJOOUctSzR5NWE1dHpKUjFkbF9BS1VoXzJtS0V3cjFSdWVxUzgtYm4zWDROYzMyZ0NsbUxncTZjdklQTmRFQ1FaVm9FZ3paRGdZYUFVdmRxM1UzMDZjS3FhUWhLUHlJPQ== |

I let a friend borrow my copy of Hitchhiker's Guide, and he left town with it. Jerk.
Anyway, I'm looking for a quote, and was hoping someone on Reddit would be able to find it for me quicker than I'd be able to.
I'm pretty sure it's in the first book. It's the scene when Zaphod is placed inside a machine that is suppose to make him go mad because it shows him how miniscule his life is compared to the massiveness of the universe. The quote compares life with a grain of sand.

So, if you missed everything: a couple weeks ago I made [a cookbook full of recipes from this subreddit](http://www.reddit.com/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuud/comments/gj7k2/as_promised_heres_a_cookbook_d/) for my bookexchange giftee and posted it to this subreddit as a pdf. Because a lot of people asked for it, I then put it up [on lulu](http://www.reddit.com/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuud/comments/go8vf/ok_ok_you_win_the_hungry_as_fuck_cookbook_is_now/) for the people who didn't have printers, and made a new and improved pdf for the people who had not gotten around to printing it yet ;). I'll take the book off lulu about 2 weeks from now, so if you still want one you'll have to be quick!
There's been a lot of talk about making a proper book with a publisher, and I've been contacted by people who are interested in publishing it. The reason I'm posting this: it's not going to happen without you all, so I figured we need to get our expectations and priorities straight. Below I've written some discussion points, and my own thoughts and interpretations. Please discuss! :D.
*Discussion points:*
1. **Who does what?** As you can see, I'm taking the lead in this project, as well as doing a lot of the work involved ;). The publisher will do a lot of work as well, and have a say in many things based on their experience and expertise. I do view this as a community project, but it's going to be hard to be productive if everyone needs to be involved at all times. So IMHO this should be like a 'benevolent dictatorship': I'll do my absolute best to go about this project with integrity and respect towards this community, to ask for feedback and explain what's happening. In return I'll need you to trust that the publisher and I will do the right thing for the project, and respect our decisions. If you need to know more about me before you feel you can trust me, please don't hesitate to AMA or check out my comment history :).
2. **What is the timeline?** I think we need to wait a little more, at least a few months, and gather more possible recipes. I personally would like to make the book a lot thicker than it is now, so the more recipes are submitted, the better. I'm thinking about starting discussions with publishers in 3 or 4 months, and then see what happens. Also, I'd like to be graduated by the time we get to the actual work of putting the book together, so I can work on it full time for a while. Either way, it might well be that it won't work out with a publisher, but at least it'll be an interesting experience. Self-publishing is of course always an option too, but doing this with a publisher is way cooler and easier.
3. **What about the recipe authors? Part I: permission.** For the previous book I didn't get any permissions, because that wasn't supposed to be such a big thing ;). I did attribute every recipe (when possible), and I would of course do that for the next version of the cookbook as well. However, if we actually want to publish something for real, it can't go forward without official and legal permission from recipe authors.
4. **What about the recipe authors? Part II: money.** A publisher will only want to publish this if they think they can profit from it. I will only want to work for this if there's a good chance I'll be paid for my time, because I need to eat ;). There are about 35 recipe in the current book, and it took me a couple days to create a somewhat passable version, for which I didn't bother too much with picture resolutions, font size, kerning, etc etc. I'd like the next book to have lots more recipes. Lots of recipes means lots of authors and lots of work for me/the publisher. So, after thinking about all of the previous sentences, I don't think it's realistic to assume there's going to money to pay 50 or 60 or 70 or more recipe authors. Maybe if it's an overwhelming success we can send you each a copy for free, but I don't know if that's possible. Of course this is something a publisher has a much better handle on, so I might well be wrong, and then we'll all be rich :D. It's definitely something to think about though. Will this change your opinion of the project? Is this (un)acceptable? I'd love to hear your opinions.
5. **Would you be ok with changes to the recipes?** Some recipes might need changes to make them ready for publishing, for instance because the pictures are blurry, because they're just a little bit too wide or too long, because things are misspelled, because the instructions are unclear, because they use ingredients that are local to somewhere, etc. Of course this is partly a legal issue, I assume you'll sign for this when you give permission to be included, I think no publisher will go near it if you don't. I would like to think that we'd work with the authors if possible, but that might not be practical depending on the volume of changes and the number of authors. Is this acceptable?
6. **How will I keep you up to date or ask for feedback?** I don't want to keep spamming this subreddit if that's in any way unwelcome. But I do want to be transparent about this project, and open it up for occasional feedback. Should I make a new subreddit/blog/whatever to discuss the project or keep it in here? Mods, maybe you can weigh in on this, it's your subreddit ;). Obviously the frequency of posts etc will all depends on the publisher as well, I'm not sure how much feedback and transparency they'll be comfortable with. I've made /r/hungryasfuck because why the hell not, but I'm not sure if that is the appropriate forum.
7. **Any other suggestions/thoughts/concerns you'd like to discuss?**
One more thing: I've already received a rather unpleasant message about 'selling out' when I first posted the cookbook, so I figured I should address it before some troll derails any productive discussion we might have. I have to admit I'm not super-involved in the 'f7u12 culture', I just enjoy browsing f7u12(d). The reason I'm behind this project is that I just really like your recipes, and think it'll be AWESOME to have a proper real cookbook of them. I don't expect to become super-rich from this, AFAIK most publishing endeavors don't rake in the cash, I just hope it'll cover the amount of work I'll put in ;). If all this makes me a sellout somehow, that's ok. This cookbook thing is not going to happen if you guys won't give permission to be included, so yeah, that would be it then. Either way, I loved the overwhelming positive reaction the current incarnation of the cookbook got, so if this project doesn't happen I'll always have that ;). Thank you all :D.
--------
tl;dr: We're (hopefully) making a recipe book with recipes from this subreddit, with a publisher. Just read the bold discussion points and give your opinion about them.

First:
Holy shit. We passed 500 readers a while back. What's more, we select a book more or less on time every month (and when we don't, it's my fault), and every month there are several people who read it and discuss it. That's fucking awesome. Honestly, I didn't expect this to stick when I started it up however many months ago, depressed that none of my IRL friends wanted to read the same books I was and talk about them. A job loss, a job gain, a change of cities, and over a half-year later, and not only is r/SFBC still going strong, it's definitely taken on a life of its own and gotten me to read some phenomenal books I never would have otherwise. You all are awesome. Rock!
So, our ridiculously rad co-mods (who have put tonnes of effort behind the scenes to keep this place up and running even when I can't) and I have a few questions for everyone. Mostly, we wanted to take this time to see if anyone had any suggestions, complaint, or ways for us to make this place better, and to ask a few specifics.
1) What do people think of the current spoiler tag? Does it work? Would you rather in-line spoilers? Or have a tag that says how far into the book you can discuss ([ch3] or [pg231] being examples)? Should we just do away with it and allow for a free for all? Or is the status quo the way to go?
2) Is there anything we can do to promote more discussion? I've tried to keep discussion very open, allowing folks to discuss or link to anything even slightly relevant. Is there anything we can do to improve the number of people reading and discussing the books?
3) Gabwyn and I would like to do a redesign of the subreddit similar to the one we did for [/r/printSF](/r/printSF). However, coming up with a header image that sums up r/SFBC is not easy. Any recommendations would be well appreciated.
4) Any other comments or suggestions? I'd love to hear them. Totally stoked on making this one of the most interesting book related subreddits around.
Thank you all so much again. Here's to another 8 months of awesome books!

This was the first real programming challenge ever given to me, way back in middle school. I figured other people might find it fun to solve this
Use any language you want, and return the Nth digit of the sequence. You can also return the entire sequence up to N if you prefer, in array or string form.
My solution, in javascript, is [here](http://jsfiddle.net/kageurufu/BFzMW/)

I'm taking my first philosophy class and it's a lot tougher than I was expecting. My teacher has very high expectations and I find myself falling behind in class just trying to understand the theories we talk about. I need to explain how euthanasia could be considered ethical.
In terms of Kantian moral theory we think in ways of autonomy and protecting one's dignity and respecting a person's choices. Can this be applied to supporting euthanasia?
Then there is the idea of Utilitarianism that it's possible that just because an action may be morally wrong even if it produces good consequences. If the patient is choosing to die, is that considered a good consequence?
What I really want to say is that individuals who are still mentally able to make sound decisions should be able to. It's their body, their life, etc. and they should have the right to choose. But I'm having trouble putting it into ethics and morals rather than just opinions.

We as a group should settle on one distributed computing project. Folding@Home vs. BOINC (And if BOINC what projects?)
We should then settle on a time to submit a link to a subreddit with a larger user base and upvote the hell out of it. This could help the target project greatly. signing on 1/20th of 1% of all visitors would be an 4000 user increase to the target project.
I find Folding@Home to be more difficult for the average user to install when compared with BOINC but that's just me. Opinions?
**Update:**
Glad to see this got some upvotes. I've been computing since the old SETI client and I'd love to see distributed computing grow further. My schedule is pretty busy for the next month but I'll try to organize enough people to insure we hit the front page. I'll send out messages about it some time this month (probably later in the month) to anyone who comments or messages me indicating their interest.
I mostly compute for World Community Grid but I'd be open to promote whatever everyone feels offers the most benefit for mankind. | r/distributedcomputing | post | r/DistributedComputing | 2011-04-29 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Vya2J6X2duaW56bFgwMkhQSW9ndnp5ODhlWHJHdGt3RnFTQjN6cEFGMGU5Q0JQdFVKanY2N1NiLU9kSlhEbDBlNWNiVnktUEtValNlTlJEVHNoNVI5dWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUW5WNzE4SnNkcTVXQjdkb1VsQWRObFV5YmxpSFR4WG0ybl84TEd3UnlPT2hqQksxYnBCc3dxeXRodWJZb0FDa1ZWbFItVm85dlZhU0dLOVZaM1ZETVpGMUU2UjJoaW9aNm9wZmFqbWxXUzYxSzVoVVoxRktkV05VX0FHZzVjcHp4M0NUV05NdXhZQTVUaWJJZkVnTy10ckEtdGxWU3ZCd2R5enNLYThGZnpUTmJiRUlrVUg5S1lqNi12OFQ3Q0tlUEFmTjlnZkkxQU1MbDBjZmVkV1Vmdz09 |

The tow vehicle we were bringing our S2 7.9 down with broke down. We were unable to secure another truck as we were already on the road. I am in Fairhope, AL right now with no position. I can be rail meat (183lbs), jib trimmer, kite trimmer, foredeck assistant, or even just the snack-tician. Experienced (in a local regattas sort of way). I also have 3 other people with me that I can drag along too if you need the bodies on board. 2 experienced (much more than me) and 1 enthusiastic beginner. We will be at the registration party tonight so message me and I/we can find you there. | r/sailingcrew | post | r/sailingcrew | 2011-04-29 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyaU1acFZEcFExSG5JeHNVV2tKV3psTjN2N09aTDhNQll1bVNRZUw5ZU0yWFozSkhEY2piY3lHc2RGb3ZPUWp4VVVoYk9VR1hrcmpaZnZPZDRBcWtnWXc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpWTA4RkI4VlFIVU1LOGFmb0V0SXdGaTFVbjZXektQdFVaT3NDX2ZqTDhWRnBwc1laaWRGU3BmQ0VTZFNSanlnR3JxZ0RhR3BnVGRocHVUa05UVFpmaXFuTFlwR1JwT3lZTHNmYTFWc1VmVkx4RThqckdWbFlwYVJJMXk5MkNVTFZDajhzLVJ2WjlqQ21GaHN3Sm04U09ub2tuVjhsYl9pQjNsRUtTLVhxWmtNX1NuT2VFOExFSUZJQm5UU2ZWVVEyUUdoTnhrVFM0YkVFbTlDZWQxSUdXUT09 |
Took a quick look through. Seems well presented with a good amount of information density on a page. Admittedly it says basic in the title, but the breadth is pretty minimal compared to CLRS or even Erickson's free lecture notes. | r/csbooks | comment | r/csbooks | 2011-04-29 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyM1hCa01pcExTalJaZnlzZllJdDJOUFRSLURodGthN25sNUNCU2g4RTVlUnZGZFRjMjFOM3NRYmExM3FiZnlFQjk0enR1OUtzdVRXLVRpOGVYWmFkQ3c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUVpGdmxHa1JWQnU5LW5ybW5OLTJjWERvTzlrOGk4c1VIYnJlSGc2dU1nblJ5QnRkQUxKaHgxeVhhT2Vna2pxY3BLM1BCdjRvMTRZNUNaaWRkbExZd2hmd0RIdlkxcENGOGRfZ0xkQ2JBVkVOU1Fab2xqTUNmTUJXbG1nekZKUXBsLU9kQ3V0Z3FqLXhhOGEtcUxBTS1XSGpUR28wWnpVdUEtMTFTZmh0d2NtUWdPWHlaZlJsZXFXMkdPa3M2V0VOSnpIVy1UQVVhZzJ2UEpzdEhWaFA4UT09 |
I have found it useful on occasion. I've found this book is succinct, presents algorithms nicely (I prefer it over the CLRS pseudocode), and provides decent analysis.

my current girlfriend and i got together because for a year and a half i was rather assholeish to her bf, and flirted very openly with her right in front of him. she hated how he didnt do anything about it
she tells me that the main thing shes attracted to in me is my confidence.

Not sure if anyone else is having issues but when steam updated spacechem this morning (to include the research net update), the game refused to launch. I have a Mac OS X 10.6.7 and the error is that spacechem is not supported on this type of mac. Is there a solution to this? Also is there a way to uninstall the update so I can play the game until it is fixed? | r/spacechem | post | r/spacechem | 2011-04-30 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Vyb1V2c0pKYnhUMDdpTndudGV5cTFtajFBZGV0akJObFE1N2o2T19tSjNrVFNmVmtIb1RidGh0b0tlZ0lLUWdqV29sZ2lqZjJUN0k1UmRWdElpUWNuQlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Zpby05azQwUXFCYVEtUDhrY1BqV1pwWnNkT052VWM4Q0ZrLXRJZzY1amM0dmpBVUFiRUpCVjZxYTRXNFkydXRYWWdZZjk4TjJqc2FmVmhGbktTcFI0RUtkT0tCVVpXWHVBWGpIbzlhc1dDLUxuekpRU1hpLVhrN3Nlbzg5bW5DQlRLUUswbVJ0dnVJVmlXVkloWF9pSWkybi1QT3I3amNxNFBNaExIS1lpY3lYSkNza2hGZWRBZTlyeWIwZktvanFK |
One of the first things I did was make a 4x4 diamond, which was easy.
It was much harder to make a 4x4 piece of silica: http://www.spacechemthegame.com/share/tzunWqXY
And even harderer to make methylphosphonyl difluoride, a chemical weapons precursor, from C and H: http://www.spacechemthegame.com/share/mvNX7ski (This is now one of my all-time favorites, if I may say so myself)
These aren't really hard, but they were a fun exploration of using fission and fusion lasers together:

I am looking for a good semi-portable tripod. Something that isn't much bigger then 13-14 inches fully collapsed. Anyone have any good suggestions?
Currently using a Nikon D5000 with the 18-55mm Kit mostly for day time, outdoor, little to no wind/rain etc.
as far as price goes, I don't have a problem saving up money and buying an expensive tripod as long as it is high quality. Though I would prefer not to spend a lot of money if I don't have to.

basically i'm considering applying for this course and would appreciate details on what it focuses on, how you're enjoying it, textbooks you're using (bonus points if you have old textbooks you'd love to offload on me), and what opportunities it's opened up for you.
my particular interest is green computing with a focus on environmentally sustainable computer manufacturing but realistically i'd probably work this into my thesis as a tangent given that my BA was like the opposite of electronic engineering (hence the conversion course! :-p). | r/uob | post | r/UOB | 2011-05-01 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyZ1k4RmtBMkdvN0xKWkFrTk4ta0Fna0JOMVZvSVNXeFVuQlEzazNYTEx2WXdrZWN4TGpoNDBoTUJtRmJFWHhGdXluSEVsY3F3eFBKYkxBMjYzUklHcnc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUHZDblpubnBXUW55aEVVQ2htZkwwTUJlNV9PTVBXZnItdTdlU0FSOEd0QWFweTc0cmZXNHZIRE5JeGhHd1FucUdXR2szVk45VUlObUl0MGdSRFYzWTdja2dvdUlNaU5Fbjh0Q1dOWmI2VWN6a3lkTTFQcTJpRVZHZDcwbDFyd2V1MlU1ZWotT2VQRDI5WmFwMUVwb1BoVFZJVW5Ja3drcXM3RTMzc0tzR3FRcWl0UkZhX01NVXRsRVNqb3VWVlFF |
Loved the portion on passion, i did realize that when I met girls who liked things that I did, i talked about it without regards to anyone else and they generally like me. My downfall is putting the girl on a pedestal as i get closer, always kills me. I have many passions which are genuine, Art and music are my big ones.
This brought up a question regarding passion. What if this a quality that is generally unattractive, like videogames. Maybe this is a misconception regarding unattractive qualities, or just my curiosity driving me crazy.

###MeetLGBT Featured Member: May 2, 2011
#[Disappearingpoet](/user/Disappearingpoet)
>##Stats
>>* 23
>>* Male
>>* Oregon, originally from Chicago.
>>* [A drawing my partner did of me](http://i34.tinypic.com/21ndxkk.jpg) He's an artist, I'm not. I hate getting my photo taken.
>##Life
>>* I'm a welder. Mostly TIG welding on aeronautics and construction projects. I like it pretty well, I'm pretty introverted, so working on my own most of the day suits me fine.
>>* I read a lot. I write a lot. I like teaching myself coding, my next project is to learn php. I really like MMA and UFC. I'm a city creature, I love nature, but not sleeping out in it. I spend a pretty fair amount of my time meditating and letting my mind wander. I like volunteering when I have time, and I'm hoping to be able to volunteer at a local youth correctional facility in the next few years.
>>* **Pets:**
I have a cat, who was a rescue. I've had her since about a month after I moved into my own place.
>>* **Political views:**
Politically I'm fairly in the middle. I have some issues I'm pretty conservative about, some I'm liberal about. I believe in the death penalty and I'm not a huge fan of gun control, I'm not really for marriage in general. I think it shouldn't be a legal institution at all, if it must be something, let it be social and actually have meaning for the people involved, rather than being a "get out of taxes" free card. I do believe in paying taxes, a lot of them go toward programs that I've benefited from in the past. I think social health care is probably a good idea, Canada has that one better sorted than the United States.
>>* **Religious views:**
I raised myself Catholic, and went to Mass every Sunday for about 14 years. Including confession, because I felt I had a lot to confess. My spirituality has shifted in recent years, and I've added a lot of Zen Buddhist practices and ideas to how I approach religion. I really like learning about religion, and I don't mind that Christianity "borrowed" major portions of their practices from other sources. I still believe in God. In general, I believe that other people's spirituality is too personal for others to comment on. A relationship with a higher power, or God, or whatever you believe or don't believe in, is a personal relationship. And that's fine.
>##What makes you _\_\_\_ :
>>* **Laugh**: All kinds of things. I have a tendency to come across as sort of a grumpy asshole, but I really like to laugh. If I'm in a pinch, I can usually make myself laugh with really stupid puns. In another life I might be lame pun raccoon.
>>* **Happy**: Spending time with the people I love. I have some pretty rad friends. Octopuses make me happy, because I just think they're neat. Coffee, I really love coffee. Little things in life, for the most part, make me happy and I'm grateful for them.
>>* **Angry**: Not being listened to, or generally invalidated. My reaction on that is better than it used to be, but I still get pretty nasty fast. Also when people expect that I be politically correct, it kind of pisses me off. I believe in free speech, not liberal speech, and I'll say faggot if I goddamn want to. I also get kind of angry when people don't appreciate the things they have, or get all mopey and emo about issues that are not life or death.
>##Favorite Things:
>>* **Movies**: The Basketball Diaries, Kung Fu Panda, Lilo and Stitch, Girl, Interrupted, The Number 23, Star Trek, LotR, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
>>* **TV Shows**: The Big Bang Theory, The Ultimate Fighter, Invader Zim, Boondocks. I also really like stand up comedy, especially Eddie Izzard. I don't watch a whole lot of tv. Pretty much just TUF.
>>* **Books**: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Things they Carried, Dry, A Wolf at the Table, Ethical Slut, Welcome to the Monkey House
>>* **Foods**: My partner is a really amazing cook. So, mostly whatever he feels like making. One of my favorites was steak with dungeness crab and homemade hollandaise. Or tamales, homemade tamales and sopapillas might be the best things ever.
> ##Sexuality
>>* **Orientation**: Gay. Despite the fact that I have both male and female partners, I identify as gay.
>>* **Coming out**: I've never really been "in." I've known that I was gay since I was eleven, and when asked would just say that yes, I'm gay. Oh, and that did cause a lot of issues at times. But [fuck that.](http://i.imgur.com/Ilw0Z.jpg)
>>I'm finding that coming out as poly is more difficult than it was to say "I'm gay." At least people have some idea of what gay is.
>>* **Relationship status/background:** My relationship orientation is polyamorous. I live with my male partner, and female partner, and my female partner's two kids, who are my male partner's niece and nephew. I haven't actually dated very much (as in, almost none), although I screwed around a lot as a teenager.
>##Misc.
>>I'm a recovering drug addict, I've been clean for a little over three years at this point. I got clean after a period of homelessness and general "fuck my life up" time. I do go to a 12 step fellowship, which I'm pretty happy with. I've been on my own since I was about 16. Coming out to my father did not go super awesome.
>>I was diagnosed with OCD, PTSD, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Paranoid Personality Disorder (and some other stuff which may or may not have been accurate) about four years ago, and I've been through a lot of therapy. I'm functioning pretty well with regards to the OCD/PTSD things, and no longer meet enough diagnostic criteria to be diagnosed as borderline or paranoid. So, that's kinda cool. I'm twice as sane as I was two years ago. My partner still likes to rearrange stuff in the house to fuck with me because he's an asshole and that amuses him.
>>I'm no longer in contact with my biological family, but I love the family that I do have.

>What file-sharing has done to the record industry, and what Wikileaks has done to the national security state, are only the dimmest foreshadowings of what technologies of abundance and freedom will do to the old authoritarian institutions.
What the hell is he talking about, 'technologies of freedom and abundance'? This is one of the most ludicrous pie-in-the-sky articles I have read.
Which is too bad, I liked his idea of society fostering an 'arms race' between production of abundance and exploitation by elites. However now I think we are headed in the opposite direction from what this author seems to believe. | r/resilientcommunities | comment | r/resilientcommunities | 2011-05-02 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VydkFrSUt4d0VCOGFlRkJjWHBuWGVkSWxUQTZWTjBSbFpfZF94WDZVbmN0NkV0QXRkdUxTWmg2VFZpdXJHWTRpeFpaTlFqZnlqTWtoV2NiY3ZCeG05OG9qSGdSdFZVbm13OENrc3doOTJfSEk9 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpTTZUanY3MV94aE1va09SS0k5bUE0Sk9lNGNfb0NxYmVEMkxwdnRzZ1hUTFAweDUzWVNuUUNTVFo0LW8wcFlYemNpWXp4b0VSUnY2Mld6cTdIbHBFZ0xIRlBRcTU2OVgydUp0N2N3Wi1rS3I0Z2czTWV3ZFlFZ0U0MWRNanNmc0dSVGlLV1htSHJaOUNKTEhtVmZmZ2tDTldhRm03bTc2Yi1vendyNVRVV1ZhT3RIRE9obXFMUjN0TExlYUd1aElpMkNmcmcxa3VVVk9rOGk4N0t1aGxnQT09 |

While I appreciate the ideas set forth in this article, it unnecessarily places human history into a system of linear progression. While many biological organisms are born, grow into adulthood, and then die, history (and life itself) has been seen to be a roiling mass of movement and expansion and contraction that isn't following any particular impetus or direction. | r/resilientcommunities | comment | r/resilientcommunities | 2011-05-02 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyR0hDZ20tclptRjVreDR6R29NMndDUVhhOEpjQmdaQjFBcEFPRzh4R1lNRHE5WTBjcGxDdjQ2OFZPMlljY0NRemMxcjV5LVROUlpEQ0dVU2NYaGFjTHFfa3VOaVBUaEduRnlhVFgwT3ZIYTQ9 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpSWlGVDNUMGFDSWRubVc5bmRJQ3NYOFZnOHJfTzJDdThfeGFLb2J6enRSU0pNTnpOTml1U29FbVJJNjBJWkVaNFdoUENfY215M0hiY25zM0lnWFhwSW9kRU12ZDRpeXI0djZIVUxZZVd0bXZ4eFRzQVdxZ19Eejdob1NZWGd5VkZYVDF6aWtva1QwRHpVSEpMNmpDaXZ2WWgtMklpdmZqaFMzRm9BaUY1MmEwN1FTbXdzeTNPOFZyYl95VXNYb2FTZF9pSFpTczFjOGVmcDJRZmlCcGJwdz09 |

I would agree with that, however another overriding trend is the depletion of energy and other valuable resources. Our impending world crisis (coming on rather quickly now) is because we are running out of everything, not because we have too much of everything.
See http://richardheinberg.com/bookshelf/peak-everything
Technology is not an answer to this; technology does not create resources, it uses them up (particularly energy). While technology can be used to help substitute some resources for other dwindling ones, and we can learn to use resources more efficiently, technology itself does not (and cannot) create abundance in the absence of bountiful natural resources. | r/resilientcommunities | comment | r/resilientcommunities | 2011-05-03 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyT2JKOFRQOGdrYmFYOTBfYlFOR01oaGFWMG9aa0FjdElUREEwUXIwSldtOGp3SENWVldsSFlxbW9LRlNqSDN0YWlIbmxDckVxUzNhQXBoVVZoWTBzOW9UUnpUOGRLYWJtSlIyTkx6b093TUk9 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpY01LTDRlMDQ2Sm9ONVJYQUlhLW8yMG1xR0lGamloeU5MeWZuVlFoZ1RUV01DbDM1M19HNDQ2bTAxZnA3ZnZ6b29QWG9TT3llczJmdjJlY2ZJMGtDaFg1Sk9tc2YwUHFxOWlSWkdCNGhsSE1QbGtISjJYdFNJQXk4UlVsX0lkei1YX0ljb2pWOWRmWi12T3VGY0xrM1Y0NXJ2dDJZOXM3ajFrbHlhOUs1RDBuZElDbWlqTXpYbmZIdTE2aHViclVxUzJteC1hRk5taGw0cnhjVXNUS3U5QT09 |
Technologies of abundance are those that increase the production of previously scarce goods. The printing press is one example: it reduced the cost of a book from months of skilled wages to, eventually, an hour or so of unskilled wages. Consequently books became abundant, so abundant that bookstores in the US today don't even bother to ship unsalable books back to the distributor — they just send the covers, recycling the paper locally.
Some other examples include, broadly, chemistry (e.g. plastics), mechanical engineering, metallurgy, mass production, division of labor, and automatic computation.
I'm not sure what technologies of freedom are, because I'm not sure what freedom is, but money, writing, automobiles, and strong encryption seem like likely candidates.
(I detest the word "technology"; it's so vague and fuzzy.) | r/resilientcommunities | comment | r/resilientcommunities | 2011-05-03 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VyWjAxbUNWRTF3M01jNXFRRUdpcHZsTUwxRFZKeWc4X0pXNWJ3N2JxSEJwSEtPOEZ6RU91MVBibmdEazVCTVN5NUdsdlotNzVjZWFUdmhhQTBoLXJPMHc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpUEpaUzAxZUV3Z2N5cDRuQTBhYTNKRGx0ZTdDRXA5RFBJZnNSbTYwcnVDdXRsRW9SdHBLVmF5elpWMXJGV004M1ZMRm1xZkxFdVpyTjFKYVVWQ2ZjYlZQOEtLbHdDYWNxSkFBZTdJLXI2X1VZQk1fZ000eFhpaE1FYkRycndOalItaTZXWW5meHR5b1dUcERQVWJCN1NKSHdnZEtSWU1NOXcyVUpGdHN1ZXlBTEtVckdrelJhdG1CVmVUV1lyWVdqdlpOVEtGM0VRTjgyOWRxUjhQdkVPZz09 |
The only resources that are nonrenewable on earth are energy, hydrogen, helium, and neon, and of these, only helium and neon are scarce. Everything else is reusable, and eventually reused, unless you launch it in a space probe, which is not yet a significant sink of natural resources.
It's true that "technology" does not create resources. Rather, it makes natural resources into something valuable to humans. Better technology makes more valuable things from less natural resources, with the paradoxical consequence that larger quantities of resources get used. | r/resilientcommunities | comment | r/resilientcommunities | 2011-05-03 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VySEhlZFpta3NNX25CWWV4NjBDME1uVFAzVjBDUGdkdGlnTUZSbjFzUWlUd1JCTDNITkozRE1URTA0Sm8wYnpIbHdhNkFwcWl4d0lYVFo0T1pEMVZqZEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZpcE0zNkdWU012cXB5VElVVU9PTjVYUDRXZEt6X25ISXBERi1rakF6SFV4TTF1dGtxdkdETHZDNGlrZkNoczRzUHdrT1h5Z19OUXJVRzhVa216T2tfaml1RmpaN3dVd0t4LW14a0kydHhETmpxVU9wMjNMWDJPLXRCUlQ4akNpT1NKNDBENGlVSFdPaURJTkNId180cTlFVkp1VFhlSTJSdl9UbFRaSnBOZ2Y5VnAyRzNhZFB6bEtBVTYzdXhDQzlSeHVKcDJwSW81ZHhsbE0xT0hRb1hjQT09 |
