Since there were three books tied for first in the selection thread, PL and I decided that this would probably be the most interesting to read. I don't want to give anything away, but I'll tell people that 1. the first 25 or so pages are slow, but it really picks up towards the end of that first chunk and the book really picks up soon after that. 2. It's a novel in the form of a collection of short stories, but not in the way that _The Martian Chronicles_ is. All the stories add up to something much larger than the whole in the end. 3. It is "postmodern literature", but not in a gratuitous way. 4. Spoilers really do suck for this, so I'll been enforcing the "spoiler tag" rules this time around. Don't post spoilers in the headlines or in a non-spoiler-tagged discussion thread.
Also, feel free to continue posting articles or thoughts on previous books read. We didn't get a lot of discussion on _Anathem_ even thought (or perhaps because) there is so much to discuss, and I think having the book club build on top of previous books rather than forget about them once they're done would be good. Remember, we all have the shared context of this list of books, so making references to or points about previous read books in the context of new ones is welcome, as is simply posting about older books.
I'm really looking forward to discussing _Cloud Atlas_ with people, and will post some stuff tonight after work or tomorrow. | r/sf_book_club | post | r/SF_Book_Club | 2010-11-03 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxMnktcEc4SERKRVlUU0V5N09NMnlneklQTGNtT083Z0tuV0t5QThlc0ZsTmtGM3hBM1l1Yk04VkwwWUZneGd1U21Edi1TcnN0OWt4WjZzeFg4RU9IRUE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoLUxzYjNEdkpnOUVVek9kZm1aU1dUN01QTV96UHhVcV9BbXVZRDJwOU0zSmN2WTdiZG9iX25jVFlqc2xsT1RVenQwZk1rMUszSUVWZ3A1elJvcmxXY2t5S28tcGJGeVVBektNT3lSSHV4NXk1bnJDY2hNcVkxaTNlM1lGV1VmR000VU83VXFUbU9SUVhRWkN2STFFLU5jXzBTcXItUmluM25IenYtdDQ2SFVPX19DandXanhpcTdXQ2NlYXJLVlNNTjV2NGlmelJETk1wUG5Md21mMllqUT09 |

Is this a deal? I don't have a DSLR, but I'd love a DSLR. It's woot selling it (which usually means a fair discount) with dpreview backing that it's a fair price for a body and a lens. However, it is refurbed, and of course, I'm not sure how the Pentax K20D has actually stood the test of time-- As in, is it still worth getting, or is it totally outmodded? | r/photoit | post | r/photoit | 2010-11-05 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxR0dXcFVkVHVwQ3cxd2g1UlFTUDBWelI3ZmYtNlViVHhsS3I1b2lLNTFLMFpFb3Q5bEU5Nk5oLXdTZ2VveWk1OG5QWXdzMzNxLTlJRi00WUJPTC1uaEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZodHhIWHc0M2g5Z2NrNVFjLTduV3I3emdIZjdvY3NpV3lkNlNjS2l0N2FqNk4yclpFRnRRN3pjZURvUWlkYmVhWG5sSy16R2wwRTlqZk5uQWNyNzJZdjZCV1BXcmR1NjBFUGFSSno2b2hoajBYOFdsZkpSMUk2Wk5HY2xHcTIza3RJNHJkbzZyaW5kb3hwVXlkTmhJWTAySzFfME1tRVBiWWgtX01sWktSQmdLdHZ5a1BZTjd4dWM0UkVQRXctR2dk |

**This post and discussion will include some brief spoilers of some of Stephenson's other novels.** Nothing too big, but if you're really sensitive to spoilers, you might want to skip it.
The title, of course, refers to Randy's classification of himself and the academics in the dinner party scene in _Cryptonomicon_. He is a Dwarf, the academics Hobbits, and later Enoch Root is most definitely a wizard. So, since Jad is explicitly referred to as a "wizard" by Erasmas, I figured it'd be fun to apply these and other fantasy labels to the characters in _Anathem_, as well as talk about the types of characters Stephenson has reappear in so many of his novels.
First, the Hobbits. It seems to me that, for the most part, the "academics" (that is, the Decenarians) are all Hobbits -- cut off from the world, enjoying playing in their shire thinking they are doing important things, but suddenly forced out into the big, mean, real world to fend for themselves and go on epic quests. This seems to hold true for most the characters but Jersey, who is a little bit smarter and world-weary than the rest. "A hobbit that has been outside of the shire," in Cryptonomicon-speak.
Then, the Dwarfs. Sammann and Yul, I think, obviously fit this mold. The resourceful, danger- and adventure-seeking guides. Erasmas' sister Cord might also fit here, although she might just as easily be an elf.
Then, most interestingly, we have the Wizards. For sure the Rhetors and Incantors both fit here. It seems to me that with _Anathem_ Stephenson has reconciled with the postmodernists a little bit. The Rhetors, while disliked by Erasmas, act helpfully throughout the end of the novel, and Jad definitely has a respect for them. Not to mention that it is all but outright acknowledged that they do have wizardly powers to change the past. The way I think about it, the Incantors are **quantum** wizards, using facts about the underlying nature of the world to influence the future, while the Rhetors are **postmodern** wizards, using rhetoric to change beliefs, thus changing the past. I suppose that _Anathem_ uses several "postmodern" literary techniques as well, including the text of the book itself being found and used as evidence to throw back Orolo. I'll admit that I almost wanted Stephenson's big reveal not to be that Platonism was true as a consequence of the Many Worlds interpretation of QM, but rather that worlds are truly "narratives", births by the telling of stories about those worlds, and that an influencing world upstream is one in which stories are told about your own world. But I suppose that would be a bit too navel-gaze-y for Stephenson -- and my like of the idea is influenced by my own rejection of Platonism.
---
Moving on, a few thoughts about how Stephenson handles characters in the first place. It seems that he really does have a set group of maybe 5 character archetypes that he uses over and over again in his novels, more or less changing their "flavor" by changing their backstories. There is the young nerdy male protagonist (Hiro, the Waterhouses, Erasmas), the plucky female (Amy Shaftoe, Cord), the tough charismatic male (Doug and Bobby Shaftoe, Sammann, Yul, Raven?), the wizard (Jad, Enoch Root), and even some recurring bit characters such as they annoying pretentious postmodern academic (G.E.B. Kivistik, the Rhetor whose name I forget).
Frankly, I sometimes tire with this almost lazy characterization: by reading Stephenson, I gain little insight into how people work because Stephenson himself has little to offer on that front. It almost feels as though he designs his characters as for a D&D-style role playing game (to continue the fantasy metaphors) rather than for a novel. I understand that his books are more about ideas and worldbuilding than characters, and believe me I can appreciate that (if I didn't, I wouldn't be a science fiction nerd), but I sometimes almost feel that his books create the illusion of character depth while not being able to back it up. It's less a harsh criticism and more "thing that always is in the back of my head", and I'm not even sure if making more real characters would be good for his books -- it might well detract from what the real point is. But I look at someone like Banks and can't help wishing that Stephenson would also read some more literary fiction and learn that there are some useful lessons to be taken from the genre. Frankly, this is part of why I don't have much desire to read the Baroque Cycle any time soon, because I like my historical fiction to be a bit more on the character-study end of things than I care about when it comes to SF.
Anyway, that was long, meandering, and poorly-written, but I do wonder if people agree/disagree with me on any of these points. I'd love to build a bit better model of Stephenson's writing in my mind and I'm sure others have more insightful things to say that I do. | r/sf_book_club | post | r/SF_Book_Club | 2010-11-07 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxdmtQWi1nNlN6TGUwOGVmcjR1TWlYVm84NjY2akY1RElIMVV6dG81T1Y1N01hY1RTLWZET3dUN3B4cnZIbG1JenF1MjM5N0owbURXRnhkMVZLNFVzRVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoQUV3RHRXWnZLaDNlRHdVWWI1RGlXQkxKT05LdHlISFdSMTcxRDdHR2FaQUtmSjJBRWtlb0lUN29pY05JaElTSUx5WW9lVkdyUGh0bDduY2hkMG1BcXJrclF3dDZYaUl3NTlfc3pqUEZ0N0Q1dVl1cUVSUnlUbmdDLUxSOHEzbXR0S29VZXlrT2R2NnB0dzdjMEo0UmlfNlBFLUtvRVBYaGdaLVhwb3dyNGw0czdWRHloNllfQzZpVm01NnVySG5nRGZOQ1VhUVRfWURxRWVRcVVDejV0QT09 |

I did a lot of photography back in high school and beginning of college. I own an SLR, but I really want to pick up a DSLR. I've done a bit of research on the Pentax and the Nikon. They're both in my price range, though the Nikon is a bit more. I think I would be happy with either, but I just want some opinions from those who have used them/have experience, before I make my final decision. | r/photoit | post | r/photoit | 2010-11-07 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxbmhnYzdkeHhaX3JQcTNYV0lNR0VUbF9kZzFjWC1xdHNoZWt6NFFITHRXd3g5YU1PQzRld3BReU42aUVtTTZObU1MUFVLS3pFVkM4UEgzNWFNaUMyUHc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoUG9Gd2NUSjZocG5SWnNRcnMtRGZsU1hzQWtSeEI1aFpxc25ua0lsMVU3OWVLOXZzM1lMWThNQUJTWlhuRHNza0FOTnZKaXZjc3FqZGNEQlhjQnlJMTI5MWlqNnNDaGpZYVhMNmxnZXphY0phb2dJb3BwYWpBREJDelNBWGxYUjlFOW1SQkZfSGpJZUNXRnU5aGp0Z3VSSWQ2QldLMmstV09DN01LRjZqdWNZPQ== |

>>* **Job**: Minimum wage job just for a few extra bucks at a farm/market. The food is expensive but is totally worth it when you take a bite.
>>* **Hobbies**: I enjoy drawing. I've got a big thing for zombies lately... I'd post a few but as we all know zombies can be quite bloody so I try to keep things friendly.
>>* **Favorite things**: I've got a real thing for horror movies and thrillers. Crime and mystery flicks get me as well. I tune into The Daily Show and the Colbert Report every night. Still need to watch the Rally on my DVR though...
>>* **Pets**: I hat a cute little cat but he had left us after a whole 4 years in our family. I cried for hours since he was one of the only things hat could make me smile during the time when I was fairly depressed. I'll always remember you Milkshake <3
>>* **What makes you ____**: The one thing that makes me happy most is random acts of kindness. I shed a tear whenever I read those sweet good deed stories. The one thing that I hate the most though is ignorance. IF you don't know what you're talking about, just zip it.
>>* **Political views**: Independent. Of course I lean more Democrat but I'd listen to a Republican before I judge at least. but hell I can't vote yet so my opinion doesn't really matter at the moment.
>>* **Religious views**: Proud atheist. I do admire Buddhism however. As I don't believe in any God or deity I find the Buddhist values to be incredibly admirable.
>#Sexuality
>>* **Orientation**: Gay
>>* **Coming out**: I have an incredible heterosexual appearance, so coming out was obviously more shocking to family and friends. I come from a Catholic based family but we sort of drifted from the church after it had basically just become a business. But still my parents were awfully surprised at this. They don't really understand homosexuality and first thought I was too young to know (13 at the time).
My dad wanted to keep me in the closet but I didn't listen to him. I was proud of who I was and wasn't going to take orders which had no benefit to me. Mum just stayed quiet and later became attached to me and wanted me to talk to her more. Hey, I'm a teenager :P
Friends were incredibly accepting and I hang with the ones I first came out to every day.
>>* **Relationship status/background**: Recently broke up with my boyfriend. We tried each other for a couple weeks but let's just say we weren't really compatible... In other words we were total opposites.

Hoisted from the comments of another post...
In decision theory / utility theory there was a debate 30 years ago about so-called "cardinal utility".
Economists used to talk about "utils" or "hedons" -- infinitely divisible units of well-being. Mathematically, is utility a real-number quantity? Does **x** satisfy me 30.9 units and **y** satisfy me 33.21987... units? (No!)
Then people started exploring "ordinal utility", which is why I put up a link to Poset. See also [Utility Theory](http://blog.hiremebecauseimsmart.com/post/620330091/microeconomics).
Google 'total order', and 'equivalence class' for more. Also 'representation theory'.
Basically: the **real numbers are totally ordered but they're also dense**. Rational numbers, too, are infinitely divisible. **Neither is a good model for feelings, judgments, or attitudes.**
However, that doesn't mean there aren't other mathematical objects that COULD be useful in modeling the mind. For example maybe there are five kinds of extraversion (five equivalence classes) with
* **A > B > D**
* **C > E**
where **>** means **more extraverted than**. See poset article.
I think the issue you raise above (*take half of my extroversion with me*) is about a different issue. People are ascribed a score (rational-number score) on the MBTI and it's supposed to describe them throughout time.
The problem I have, which I think Mitchell shares, is that **MBTI scores should not be ⊆[0,1]^4 ** and mood scores are not really **R**^2 . See [the MBTI sucks](http://blog.hiremebecauseimsmart.com/post/660470560/mbti).
Shouldn't the MBTI score be drawn from something more like a product of Posets with time?
[; \left\{ \text{characteristic}, \succeq \right\} \times \{ \text{ characteristic}, \succeq \} \times \ldots \times \{ \text{time} \} \longrightarrow \text{personality} ;]
The weird thing is, there are already tons of mathematical objects around that might be retooled for psychological modeling purposes, even though most of math has been developed for physics.

I played it when I was around 4 years old, in the early 90's. The levels were somewhat Mario like, meaning you could jump up on objects (like the bricks that were in the levels). I remember one area where I had to jump up on top of like a roof or something and go back over where I was before to progress in the level. I also remember that you dumped slime (or some kind of green goop) on enemies (I guess you could call them that). It was a kids game, and I know it was for PC. I would really appreciate it, it's been bugging me for awhile. | r/gamenostalgia | post | r/gamenostalgia | 2010-11-11 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxVXc1eUhkbFFWczMyR3JpME1OakJnY1RCUXZBeTh1VjVFWmpBV2ZHQ01ORjFNVWhHc01HNW91dmR4RmdaS3ZudWRGM0xETzg5ZDlaNnowT3RveWdVQXc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Zod0lvWEozckZKRmFmMlhjY1d5T3NaV0oxaUdDQ0ltU1VYUnVGMm44dnBTa3dQem9aRjVtd3hEMlF4bWQ0OThzSXN1RXNtN3JuV0xLRFBGOUxrMDBnempSVDllamlORTZiZkZ0VWFxTmJ4ZlFrQUl3WlhYM1M5TGxuM2RJUmFCcUZZNjBLMHpSSmFVUWcyS3BDRXliYzRPR0l0UmdaTnAtMUh5U3NJc2RhUFpkWnlfR2d3bDU2dlYxR201dTcwUHNW |

I. Income equality correlates with good
II. A measure of income equality is a measure of good
-->
III. Income equality is good.
In a debate with someone. (I) has already been agreed upon. (II) is an assumed premise.

There are some interesting multicore embedded processors. The Inmos folks that created the [Transputer](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transputer) have started a company called [XMOS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMOS) that targets the same design space, high speed embedded event processing using multiple cores.

I have searched far and wide, I've figured out parts of the lyrics and used them as search terms, I've used my song recognizing software on my cellphone. But no, nothing.
I've started to think that maybe it's a song composed only for this commercial, but it doesn't sound like a "one time use"-song.

Though nobody's ever here lol, I was wonding if anyone had any interesting ideas about this year's case.
I should note that my idea works only for Negligence per Se, and against Zimmer as a witness. The origin of my idea is in line 152 of Lexington’s defense affidavit, he says
We also didn’t violate the law because there was no way for HappyLand to know that 1,4-butanediol was a Schedule I substance. We read the list of banned substances and we didn’t see 1,4-butanediol anywhere.
My response to this was that his conclusion may not be legal, but it is moral. We shouldn’t expect a person to obey a law they have no way of knowing about! Then I went through the case law, and found Sheridan v. IPX, Inc, which states that
A defendant’s violation of a statute is excused and thus does not constitute negligence per se under Midlands Civil Code § 319 if…the defendant’s violation of the statute was due to the confusing way in which the requirements of the statute were presented to the public.
I then looked at the statute in question again, regarding the Schedule 1 Precursors. The statute doesn’t list any specific precursors whatsoever, and I wondered what amount of research would be considered necessary to find out if 1-4 butandiol was illegal. My answer was on the page prior, in the Code of Midlands regulations, in a section titled Hazard communication.
Chemical manufacturers and importers shall obtain or develop a material safety data sheet (“MSDS”) for each hazardous chemical they produce or import, which shall contain all information specified in this section under the standards specified in this section.
That’s the only legal requirement listed for any amount of research. Any argument otherwise seems to me to be an invention of fact, and if any witnesses (i.e. Zimmer, as he’s the most likely witness to testify that way) testifies otherwise, we can impeach them on that, as he doesn’t state any laws about research in his affidavit. Then we proceed to crushing his credibility, which isn’t very hard.
The point I’m trying to drive home with that argument is that Happyland did all the legally required research in obtaining an MSDS. As such, they can’t be held responsible for Negligence Per Se according to Sheridan v. IPX, Inc. Those two sentences encompass my entire argument, and (at least in my mind) this theory is much easier to explain to our jury, whom I’m under the impression has been lobotomized for some reason. At the very least, it’s easier to say than defining proximate cause, and explaining how each factor of the case was unpredictable. | r/mocktrial | post | r/mocktrial | 2010-11-15 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxMkd6S2Z3Y1M0cHpqdDlWMFJUaXdheDFGb1hRZTZFQnJEMTd4elg1Tl9VbTR1X213RnJ4Z2d4Y3A3ekh1LUdnVzNMbVdHaTBfS1F2OW9aYTV5a2k2SEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoYmtzZDRmYWNINnFadHk3bXozYmlLamF1MF9faUZueGtleVp0VzA1c1lpS0dvY2xmYV9xVnpwWEZ5S1p5a2htcEJ5X2MwR1pIUmVlaTlDZGZqeFFTdkJvSjhCQ0U4dDhLS0FkWGtrUUQ5WVZHR3pyS0xELTNJRUdFd1RWVzNFcFBsdDFnSV93cXdMT1h5dllNUVBtUi0yQi1mM01ZUGVlMEtSNkZ0WmZ0UWpNd2ttOER5eWdCajI5M0RHcFNGMzRa |

###MeetLGBT Featured Member: November 15, 2010
#[Tipps](/user/tipps)
>##Bio
>>My name is Alex. I've been a redditor for just about a year now, introduced to the site by a dear friend of mine who spends most of his time posting in gonewild. My favorite subreddits are [/r/Documentaries](/r/Documentaries), [/r/DoctorWho](/r/DoctorWho), and [/r/Rachel61](/r/Rachel61).
>##Stats
>>**ASL**: 22/m/Vancouver
>>**Pictures**: - [HERE IS A PIC UPVOTE IT ](http://www.reddit.com/r/MeetLGBT/comments/e2g4s/my_wonderful_photographer_friend_took_this/) - [second](http://imgur.com/eqM7g.jpg) - [third](http://imgur.com/xD0Zt.jpg)
>##Life
>>Grew up in a small village about an hour outside of Sudbury, Ontario - a hole (literally - its all mines) of a town where everyone is a redneck racist bigot. Doubly-bad was that I am French, and that area was one of those places where a sharp divide between French and English persisted. Tried to escape when I was 17 by going to university outside of the city, but was too young and afraid and rubber-banded home, where I stayed for the next 4 years at a bad local university. Tried again at 21 and succeeded!
>>* **Job**: 2nd year law student at the University of British Columbia. My particular interest is criminal law and human rights, internationally and domestically as well. Essentially, to do something about the [/r/Bad\_Cop\_No\_Donut](/r/Bad\_Cop\_No\_Donut) stuff that goes on in the world.
>>* **Hobbies**: I spend my free time hovering around libraries, gyms, and the many parks and forests in and around Vancouver. I love to be outside: packing a bag, putting on good shoes, and just going out walking for hours on end. I moved to Vancouver last year (to attend UBC) from a very small town, and love to experience the city life - Going out for beers and a stroll at 2am?? Yes plz.
>>* **Pets**: Had cats and dogs growing up... until my sister started working at the local SPCA. She would foster new-born kittens but had the unfortunate tendency of becoming too attached and ultimately adopting them all. At one point we had 16 or something cats in our house. I developped a fierce allergy to pet dander.
That being said, if I could have my dreams come true, I would one day have a hobby farm/ranch somewhere. I would have cattle (highland cattle preferably), goats, llamas, chickens, ducks, and any other animals that would want to come live on my wonderful ranch.
>>* **Religious views**: Golden rule.
>>* **Political views**: Still harboring bitterness about the [Rhinoceros Party of Canada](https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Rhinoceros_Party_of_Canada)* being disbanded.
>>`* Editor's note: Link added for convenience`
>##**What makes you ____**:
>>Things I hate are easier to list than things I like:
>>* People walking slowly in narrow hallways or on sidewalks, or people who walk in horizontal lines of 4 or 5 in such places.
>>* People who are always late.
>>* People who can't control the volume of their voice (I have broken ears that are painfully sensitive to loud noise so this one gets to me).
>>* I don't like walking over manholes and subway grates on sidewalks, as I have the irrational fear that they will fall out from under me.
>>* My biggest fear is being eaten alive.
>##Favorite things:
>>* **Movies**: C.R.A.Z.Y., Le Bossu de Notre Dame, Of Freaks and Men, (and unironically) The Social Network
>>* **TV**: Doctor Who, The Office, 30 Rock, and cooking shows.
>>* **Books**: Bill Bryson, Dickens, Agatha Christie
>>* **Foods**: Can't turn down a nice sushi place. Sushi in Vancouver?! You don't say.
>>* **Drink of choice**: Gin and tonic or cheap beer. I'm an easy drunk.
>##Sexuality
>>* **Orientation**: Gay
>>* **Coming out**:
>> 18 years old I think, though apparently everyone "already knew". Met a guy online, ran away from home for a weekend to go meet him, had a lovely time. Told my mom about what happened and she was like "welp we already knew that you were. Just be careful sweetie". She was surprisingly cool with it, but over time she has become increasingly neurotic. It has actually become a significant wedge between us, because despite me now living on the other side of the country, she pries into my life and gives me grief about every little gay thing I do. I suppose she's just being a mom.
>> Came out to my best friend before coming out to my mom. He was cool with it, but despite me begging him to keep it secret, he let it slip and within a day everyone in my small town (my family included) knew. Overnight I felt distinctly ostracized and left out - people who had been my friends for years stopped talking to me, or talking about me behind my back, etc. Unpleasant, but I got over it and left that hole. Now everyone in that city works at gas stations, sells and/or is addicted to hard drugs, and are supporting children from the basement suites of their parents' houses.
>>* **Relationship status/background**: It's complicated.

I just came here from /r/anarchism The people there are concerned about creating a perfect society rather than promoting anarchism and I really like this principle:
> "If someone is more obsessed with creating an "ideal community" than with smashing the state, he/she is a closeted authoritarian."
I wanted to know where can I find online communities where discussions about true anarchism and how to destroy authority take place. I thought that you guys might know more about these

I'm a 25 year old male, BA in Economics, travelling around. I will spend next 6 weeks doing an offshore passage from southern Costa Rica to Baja California, Mexico. (Pacific)
I've been sailing a couple times in the Mediterranean and hoping this passage through the pacific will give me the extra experience needed for embarking a longer passage. I'm open about destinations.
If you think you'd have a position or know of one let me know. I'll be unable to read anything from Nov. 28th until middle-end of January. | r/sailingcrew | post | r/sailingcrew | 2010-11-16 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxQ2VVcFA2VmFVRWNVbFZvRi0tcW9RdnBfaHFLaTgzaTRGYkJJdVh6WW1mcU1xQWh3ZW9LMWo0Q3V5bk92SWZiYThNcG5CTHpiblBxbDYwOXVjTnJWeEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Zoc0lndG1pQlozS0RxU3dXUnpBOVEyNkYwN05ZUHpfblp0U0xnZDlOOXl2QmJaOV9jbHo5MFhMZVZhbzVQM3dWVkhoYzhYVEtST2FVRDJ6YjN0NmdKdFNZUk84RFota2RseWZ3bXNRVng5cThLUGRjME1ibDRBOS0zNFN3VmxEbFc1Y08tZWlRTWJDVmFPNHNhUUFudklIUWhNZ1o3anNydzBUWVg1SGRyLU5FZnhQRWlyN0licWIxR2VrRm0xMmtC |
Hi photoit,
Recently I've been looking into applications for contests and colleges that request my 'best images' for review. How do I choose? The photos I think are my favorite sometimes are completely overlooked by others, or worse, some I really dislike are chosen as my best. What is a good way to really narrow down good images? | r/photoit | post | r/photoit | 2010-11-17 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxMnpYeUFFRnY3WmRYRG5IQlJFZzJMNUxZcmhNZUZSY2VyTmYwSmFYN29paUNkRFlxM1E2YlI5blBlQnlPcDYtOE45WDhjNm9VbG9PcEdoWDVtUU1jVGc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoeHJsb1ZHT0cxN21aQWhLd3ZDUzNUQUxwNkdva0JQY2REY3h1QUg3ZGRIUW9MM3dtMWJocVFXcV9zZXlqYWxKX01pVFRIdndWbUIzMG14Tjk2V1FiMU94VmRjWnBLYXFDMG1HZl9sOHk4RXJKd0pUMWlIQ09TN2VRMXlBRl90QnFzYWxOcG9nc1p1dVp5Zk43TGd0QVFPM3c0YmhzVmVFN0Y4dUx2OWYwLVhibS1CelNBNF9zMHkzVWZqNEdWVVhO |
While I have no idea how it handles bootloaders, I found that bochs is in general a far better development environment, since it has stepping, tracing, and breakpoint support - more or less, it can do rudimentary debugging.
I haven't found out how to do this in virtualbox yet. | r/systems | comment | r/systems | 2010-11-17 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxOGlCQkF3UnlMZkhWY2gtZ1Y0VUNlN0lvZUY4d2d3UjNTMlY4WXNMTUVRY2owcV84UmJNeVNkS0xQZTZlVjcwSTFGWDA4M1hfZnRlSEpNbENoM3diQWc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoMzNHbUV3Z18xSXRtZjd0dC1MQmFpTmp3RE5WSWFCZVJVazVJdGtmZUhhZTRqeXd2YmdMQUJiQ2dDek01OUgzem1JSEZIR1lmRVpjT2FPN0phZml5THNrZDBSRl9qWXZvM0w5akJEQkdueVkzRTdtSktCdGJVbmVQbXVIUEx5NjEwSDk0MDZ6TTZKTDVJcE9KRF8yQTFyNXFiQVpZSGNMWXdJUWJUMTRmSURIOXpQNktqMDNXMnd3TExIbi1jUURHcmo4c3VwOWw5TE9tWUN4bkM4djd2UT09 |
Hi reddit. My wife and I are expecting a baby and I'm actually pretty terrified. I didn't grow up with a dad, and never learned the basics of being the man of the house (how to fix a car, do basic electrical, carpentry, plumbing, etc.).
Are there any websites or videos out there that can help me out? | r/doesanyoneknow | post | r/DoesAnyoneKnow | 2010-11-17 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxYU55R29kTWV1dmRVLVB1aFYwOTY1TGJEMzBrRXRnMnpDSVRlM1gwZ3JONkl4NWU4OUdVOURraFBOaGp5eGtDNUQzbUFhVDBlUWNTbkl3cGE5eDNaS3c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoNHR4cFJDalpfLTV5SjdhSWxHT1hNbzVLcWhRQkQ3TVBjZkdrcE1PQTRvWlBERFpKYWI2OFJWcEJPODVReWNpWlhDTGUtM3ROR0huQzZ3SktjRGR6V2JxVGxkNW9BQXJxTVFpRW14aDBsTm5rUnJKNkNxNHhOa1dUWjgtSlZTRTZ6VG1Ia2M0TEl3NjdMdk82NUFGVWdfU1V4RDR4X043MmVfcllDU0FXRjVhMXdoUGFkZlVFWU9pSVo2MENQRFp0VTRpcElVUGtseVBOTk0ycm1fOGdBUT09 |
You probably can't. Virtualbox isn't designed to be used as an OS testing environment, or even bootloader testing environment for that matter. I'll look into bochs though. Moreover what really inspired this blog post is that this is a new way that the technology can be used, even though I'm sure Oracle would have a field day if they found out people were reverse engineering any part of any of their products. | r/systems | comment | r/systems | 2010-11-17 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxRDZQTFA5eDF4dHc0Q1UxRW91WE44SWxhU3lidHpubFZhakxTUGZmNkFqM1JqUmxGZ0FRQzRaM0VueElfYUx5MDFLSWJZVXlFUm5BUEo1X3QweXF2Snc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoTWNOLXNyRXMwLXNKczNrVjl0d1hWSUFET2lqcVBzU1dtanNPTFBaX0lMN1RjeXF6ZTE1UEJRZklRcF9CdGxlc29fOTF5Y3luTE9QSC1tbHVzMm94Wi1mREdSa2hHM0ZxbGRpMlczUkdud3JjQUdHSG1zb2poSXcxWjhUOU5XSExSNjJvekU3ZlprTUdXX1loanE3N1BYUFNqdkVyNjhhX2Ryb3Y3QjBLckxlYWpYNE4zQy0yMXhjeEtvdzJtM3liWFRCNXIxQVN3TmFkODUxQWduc1ZFUT09 |

>##Stats
>>* **Age**: 57
>>* **Gender**: Male
>>* **Location**: Upper Ottawa Valley, Ontario, Canada
>>* **Pictures**: [http://imgur.com/TCchT](http://imgur.com/TCchT)
>##Life
>>* **Job**: I am the co-owner of a greenhouse/garden center business in rural Ontario. My business partner is my ex-husbear. You could seriously write a situation comedy about my living situation. Imagine a mashup of Trailer Park Boys, Ab Fab, and Queer as Folk. You would not have to ever make anything up.
>>* **Hobbies**: Camping and exploring the backroads of rural Ontario. I love attending Radical Faerie gatherings at The land aka Amberfox and various other gatherings and music festivals.
>>* **Favorite things**- I am not much into television at all except for sometimes some old British comedies like Fawlty Towers and Black Adder and National Geographic type documentaries. I love cooking and baking. My honey-oatmeal bread is awesome.
>>* **Pets**: Currently living in a house owned by 4 cats.
>>* **Political views**: A mashup of Social Democrat and Libertarian
>>* **Religious views**: Homosexular Gaythiest
>##What Makes you _\_\_\_ :
>>* **Laugh** - kittens
>>* **Happy** - recently a long-lost friend added me on Facebook. I was told he died of AIDS over 10 years ago. I cried my eyes out. It felt sooooo good.
>>* **Sad** – Thinking about all the good people our community has lost to the AIDS crisis.
>>* **Angry** – Racism, violence.
>##Sexuality
>>* **Orientation**: Seeking Queerdom. I view Queer as the apex of gay enlightenment, sort of like how Buddhists seek Nirvana
>>* **Relationship status/background**: Currently single. In my life I have been in 3 LTR's. One lasted 3 yrs, two of them lasted 12 yrs. I have deliberately avoided getting seriously involved with anyone for the past 3 years but am now ready to find yet another Mr. Right.
>>* **Coming out**:
>> I grew up in northern Canada and I was not aware that there was such a thing as homosexuality until I was in university. I did have a feeling that I somehow didn't belong and got heavily into drugs. I became very depressed and intentionally OD'd and woke up in an ER with a stomach pump tube threaded through my nose. I remember feeling so ashamed when my parents arrived. All they said was "We love you and we want you to get whatever help it takes. We will cover whatever it costs and not ask any questions."
>> I started seeing a therapist who slowly helped me understand myself. After about a year I finally asked him "What is homosexuality all about?" So we talked a bit and the session ended. As I was walking home I can remember this amazing feeling that I was walking on air about a foot above the sidewalk. A huge burden had been taken from my shoulders.
>> I had a lot of thinking to do and it took about six more months before I could actually start meeting people. The main problem was that the gay community was so underground and difficult to find and what I found first was sort of the dirty underside. By that I mean creepy closet cases who cruised skanky washrooms trolling for quick sex. This did not do much for my self esteem.
>> Over time, I found a good gay support group and got very involved in various aspects of the gay community. I became a phone line peer counsellor and general activist with several organizations. I remember how terrified I was to be filmed by TV cameras when I walked in my first pride parade in about 1985 or so. The next year I carried the leading banner at the front of the parade.
>##Misc
>>My parents were blessed with four sons, three of us turned out gay. We lost one of my gay brothers in a tragic accident just after his 20th birthday. My other gay bro lives in Brazil with his drop dead gorgeous bf. I spend every winter with them since it is off-season for my business. I am becoming minimally comfortable in Brazilian Portuguese. I can communicate well enough to travel independently as long as I have my trusty phrase book at hand.

Hi r/photoit,
I recently bought a DLSR and convinced a few friends of mine to get together next weekend to set up a makeshift photoshoot in order for me to test out my new camera and for them to get some hopefully cool pictures.
We're using one of my friends office for the photoshoot, there's lot of space and a lot of sunlight comes in making it pretty full of ambient light. We're also getting together some fabrics for the background and another friend is going to provide a tripod for some of the shots.
Any tips on the best way to set the whole thing up? we're all really hyped and looking foward to it.
Also the owner of the place we'll be using owns a pair of [these lights](http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200309785_200309785) we can use for free, which sadly are not for photography. Any ideas on how best use them? I guess we could use a white cardboard to reflect it and make it less harsh, and use the second one for lighting the background.
Any tips or considerations would be greatly accepted.
**Edit:** Thanks a lot for the help. The shoot went IMO very nicely. [Here are the pictures I got out of it](http://picasaweb.google.com/mbisono/HannahSPhotoshootFinal?authkey=Gv1sRgCL6zyNnerqWRdw&feat=directlink).

Alright so I don't remember this game very well but I've always been pissed at myself for never finishing it, I played it about 10~ years ago and it takes place in space (I'm pretty sure); at the start you're in a hangar (looks similar to the Doom 3 starting hangar) and there is a leaking oil barrel which you have to get past, you then get to fly a spaceship/airplane and have to shoot down/dodge incoming objects.
The walking around parts was in third person (fixed camera).
As I said, I don't remember it well but everytime I think about it I'm reminded of the guy on the cover of Outcast (similar outfits I guess).
Anyone remember/know this PC game at all?

*Out of this World* for Sega Genesis or Super Nintendo. I contend that no one ever has beaten this game; parents just used to buy this to leave their kids busy for days/weeks without need for food, sleep, or attention.

I'm a VB Programmer Currently, mostly in Sax Basic, and I want to learn COBOL can anyone point me to good resources and a decently non-pain-in-the-ass windows 7 debugger/compiler?

Also if you know any good resources I'd love to hear them.

I'm looking to study up on simulation modeling for a project I plan to start early next year. I have a copy of Law and Kelton's "Simulation Modeling and Analysis" that I acquired when it was basically a new book :-P. It feels somewhat dated, so I was wondering what were the better texts on this topic these days, if any?

I finished the book on Friday and have been digesting this weekend. I'm sure my English skills are all atrophied by now, but I noticed a theme of accent and decent throughout the book that seems to be fairly well developed. It's funny because when I tried to imagine the book, I actually visualized a parabola.
Don't know if this struck anyone else. I'm also curious as to what other themes others saw as blatantly obvious that may not have resonated with me.
I'm looking forward to hearing what everyone thinks! | r/sf_book_club | post | r/SF_Book_Club | 2010-11-22 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxRHhiUzNjdXpodkhQTEFqUjNwVXVIc2ZTNmdiSFVIaGFRZm1TUjF5bS1jaUR3MldSbHN2azhWcmN5Q1p1OUNiVV81SzNLWHRLSTd6MHNrWVNnM0RhSVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1Zob2pBbDQzVHhoTnc0RWM5VWZNdWJGczhKaDBPMTNVYTg1QVRYNHlaelV2M2J0UlJXb3pib1dOZWlsMVpzV3JhU1hMa2k3T253RUlTZFFZN2pMNTQ1SnVPQU11RWdVZE1tOEtaa2hnU3lMZjlBX3lyXzYwWERTTUg5c3FWSWFGRVBiNDl4czFGcGlKdnNfVXNRWXRXckhlZGVNWm8yZWRSdDZFS0JzTm85TTJhQ3pPbkNDR1JjMVI2X29OanNTRFJT |

I shoot with a Nikon D70 (raw and handheld) and plan to use black molton as backdrop. I have three issues:
**1: Light**
I am not too comfortable with lighting in general (front? side?). I will have to shoot with natural light (maybe utterly gray, maybe bright snow situation) and the built-in flash. The latter leaves me completely at sea and I have no idea how to put it to good use as a secondary light source.
**2: Perspective**
I am also not too sure about perspective (more upwards or downwards or straight?).
**3: Shooting-Situation**
When I can shoot people in action, I am usually happy enough with my portrait results, but when it comes to a more formal shooting situation, I feel awkward and usually don't like my results too much.
I don't see my grandparents very often as I live abroad, so I really want this to be as good as I can make it. I would be most grateful if you could give advice from your own experience or direct me towards useful literature or websites.
Thanks, Reddit!

#[malibustacey](/user/malibustacey)
>#Stats
>>* **Age**: 23
>>* **Gender**: Male
>>* **Location**: Sydney, Australia
>>* **Pictures** [Having a coffee to warm up on the top of Mt Snowden in Wales](http://imgur.com/zHiCz.jpg), [About to set fire to things and make dinner](http://imgur.com/XttU1.jpg)
>#Life
>>* **Job**: Office bitch (and de-facto IT bitch) The pay isn't great but I have the nicest boss in the world which makes working while studying so much easier! At uni studying law after completing a media/comp-sci degree.
>>* **Hobbies**: Computers. They are everywhere in my house. Here in Sydney we have council cleanups twice a year which is where everyone chucks the shit they don't want any more on the curb and the council come and take it away. I go around collecting computers and computer parts to fiddle about with. Used to do this working for a charity supplying computers to people who can't afford them, don't do that any more though - just slowly fill the house with junk!
>> Also like photography, bush walking, bike riding, going to the beach/swimming, board games, going to the pub and spending a huge amount of time online! Oh oh oh and travelling!
>>* **What makes you _\_\_\_**: My friends make me laugh and keep me sane. Fundamentalism in religion, stupidity, expecting help without trying on your own, the abuse of the word "ironic" all get on my nerves.
>>* **Political views**: liberal
>>* **Religious views**: I struggle to see religion as anything but a character flaw. The religious people I know/have encountered have done nothing to help this...
>>* **Pets**: A cat. Would love a dog though!
>#Favorite things
>>* **Movies**: Stardust, Run Lola Run, X-Men I & II (What were they thinking having X III written/directed by anyone but Bryan Singer??), Shelter, Moulin Rouge, Chicago, Rocky Horror... this list could go on and on and on.
>>* **TV**: Misfits, Six Feet Under, Weeds, True Blood (done with this now, couldn't care less what happens in the next season), Farscape (although I never finished it), Modern Family, First few seasons of UK Shameless
>>* **Books**: Read a disturbingly large number of Agatha Christie novels, have really fallen out of the habit of reading which is sad because one of my favourite things in the world is to sit in the bath and read!
>>* **Food**: Everything. Maybe Japanese is a stand-out? Drink: Cider.
>#Sexuality
>>* **Orientation**: gay
>>* **Coming out**: Well I came out to a few of my friends in probably the last or second last year of high school and it really wasn't that big a deal! Then I started at uni and after a lot of pushing (I was terrified for some reason) I went down to the queerspace where I then proceeded to spend almost all of my free time.
>> I'm out to my immediate family, told my parents at the beginning of this year and have been fielding a few awkward questions and strange pieces of advice but otherwise they reacted well, my brother is totally fine with it! When I told Mum I was crying, felt so stupid afterwards!
>>* **Relationship status/background**: Single (boooooo)
>#Misc.
>>Don't really know how or when I stumbled upon reddit but I've been here for a while though! Spent ages without an account, only got one originally to save things I might want to come back and look at / show other people after discovering it was practically impossible to find anything once it had dropped off the front page!

Four Groups has developed a new diagnostic and predictive profiling tool called 4G. 4G has been designed to improve understanding of behaviours, relationships and culture within organisations.
This has particular implications for many notoriously difficult problems, such as engagement, collaboration, innovation and team performance. | r/mathpsych | post | r/mathpsych | 2010-11-23 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxMW40M0RUX0VTcEVwSkdyOFpEOWN6TVUzY2twTjBQZnhFOW04cjlZZml1dTNQV1NmenRUVk10U3Y2XzN2WlhKekVDNkMyMk1XNVhJWXFHdUpwVHpVYlE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoYVo0ZnRwaXRRdUlTT0hFbWx1WGdzZ244U2NyMmNmZ09reFhpbzFYbmxTemluX29HQ1dXNEFPbWJjUFhEZzhYNzFtd0FSbTFtQ3gzZ3VaSzVUWXplUHplbVhmMG1LRkRzVTFPWk9uNGFiaWFwUXN4VzI5QThPWjdONmd1YWZIWGRLSWtJRGF6b2gtYlFhQXBrOWt4T2lmOWtLTjFCalNFd3NBOUZZb3JxMUhHcUF3dzBoNHVhNWhNSWRSRzJZZEsy |
I've followed the instructions using white paper, and after shooting and selecting it still comes out gray. I'm wondering if it's just mine or if anyone else is having the same issue. Yes, the paper is true white. No, I haven't tried a gray card.

Hello veggit, I bought a quorn "turkey" roast today to have on Thanksgiving. I have never had their products before and saw some things online that bothered me a bit. A website said that it is not made from mushrooms, but that it's actually made from a type of mold that can make people sick. There's an entire page of complaints from people who say they got sick after eating quorn: http://www.cspinet.org/quorn/victims.html
I want to enjoy Thanksgiving with my family without worrying about this. I'm considering cooking it tomorrow to see if it makes me feel ill so I'll know if I need to find a different substitute. Advice and feedback is appreciated. | r/veg | post | r/veg | 2010-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxOG5USzc3UVQ2dVRHWWFHM2lfT2QzV0xYT1BOdElBYmhpYmhKU3VzRmwtYzRGZFE4WndNWlgwbTcxeDA1T3laZnU3alRudUhiaGlCbUVKU2s1dzBiTkE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoeHpPQmw5STNCc2xPU0s5RHd3aE5neG5FMVcyWWVMZkpUWVQzdHB4aUZkSDVNMXFNRnpNd0s3RTFiNXowa1FLVmRGQmJrQW5sckNyNk50VHUtRlNOcDN3OGI4djJtc3pGUTA3MHg4UjBSVGNkSjVaUldUN0ptUjltV1c5YmtKR3o5YW9kYVVJMGU0YXdBQy1fRDBDQ3BZTGxQZXdUMW8xdmlTWEp1bzJWSzF1MXFGczVjeW5QcF8tSEpQa1NDeW5D |

I've gotten tired of the graininess and limitations of point and shoots and am interested in getting an SLR. I'd just like a decent entry level camera that isn't too expensive. I don't know a ton about cameras so going and looking is a bit intimidating, so any advice on where to start would be appreciated. Thank you!
Type of photography I do: Taking photos of friends and family, nature, random interesting things I find. Nothing with special needs.
Current camera usage: A mediocre, cheap point and shoot.
Lenses: None.
Budget: ~$500 (Used cameras are an option. I'm a college student if that explains anything). | r/photoit | post | r/photoit | 2010-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxSHA5dXVvVTI0amYyd3Z6dTlOMXVmQ0g0VTNyZ2hDLUFteEJBbFpMekljZm9xU0Y2R01XenJoYVk4WVp6aGtBUUxUVkkyVHVzUzJkT0lsTE5ybW5Bd0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoemNneDRhUFBvdnh6dmtZS1JsY2czTHlYckxjNGFLbFU0ZENTTE8zVG5xTWNSZmpwUl9Qa19LRWJvZ185N0hyUFhPMFloVEZ3ZFBqUXRMT2R1c2F4ZS1wRlBOb0ZFQ3g4WWVNeEFnLU5kY2VUcFZFbmNpaVVUZFFuYkNUSGRVbktjQkFBbko3RkVlOXlUbU9BQi1DVXcwYTJuUFhaUE9NT0UwcUhWbThYRm13dFRacVVDY0J3bGh3Q095UzZzcHVi |
**Edit** [Article is here - sorry!](http://donkinonwork.blogspot.com/2010/11/personality-testing-and-zealots.html)
More than 16 years ago I wrote a sceptical column in the Financial Times on the uses of personality testing in recruitment, drawing on the expertise of Steve Blinkhorn and Charles Johnson, two highly respected occupational psychologists.
For all their scepticism, which has never been refuted, at least not to any satisfactory degree as far as I can see, recruiters continue to rely too readily on the outcomes of tests that can be easily faked or misinterpreted. | r/mathpsych | post | r/mathpsych | 2010-11-24 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxaEgyQ2VoVl9vOG9zcVB3SzFMZTVGVHZocExiWXpwR3gyT2xFUHFSTHo1U1BhVDNoWUo2QVQwTTA5MmFtS3NMQV92VlU0bV80aHF4aFNHWDZXWkpyRnc9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoSFFOTWtpb0JMYVd1NjVRTmNoeTVQdHZlYldDcUJza256ckI4OU1sbWQxY2tRTl9xUVgxVWU2Tzh2Nk5xend5ZjVxc0UzMnl0ZVVuZlhSdGpQYW9HbTJzazR3T0FydlBkWC1qWE5xTUtnRWNaNmh5YTFYZ1dGZ3dIalhEV2xkV3lWNHh5V29HVXBSX2JMdmMtWU1QZzhMOHZrN3A1Xy1SN2F6YlVvbDFxcjFNa0RfSkRZZ0JBcVF1U041b003bnJ1 |

So, a bunch of things in _Cloud Atlas_ happen over and over again. Off the top of my head, this includes people being thrown off an edge, the birthmark, clouds being used metaphorically, etc.. I say we should make a table of all the things that repeat in at least 3 chapters, and which chapters they are found in. I'll begin: please post comments of details I've missed so that we can build this up to being something really useful.
As more ideas come to me and as you all post more input, I'll update the list. Looking forward to the final product!

I'm sure there's a lot of "What are you thankful for?" type questions floating around today (it's American Thanksgiving). Most of the time, people are thankful for health, family, friends, food, shelter, etc. - seemingly universal needs.
Beyond that, though- what are you thankful for that *happened* this year (as opposed to the more traditional what you have or don't have- you have good health, a house, food) ? | r/meetlgbt | post | r/MeetLGBT | 2010-11-25 | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1VxN2tJVVJ0al9mNHY2SWZud01ESWE5elk4eEtDLXhEbm5GYUNQbTNpZWliSXNYd2JHX2ZHcmhLdVdpSUlsTG0tZXc1dW9MSFhlbjlWdmxTN2hZS1UxOVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5LN1ZoTUN3emNrUzdBa1JyMWQ0SFdkRmNrSVYxQkR2MkhROWdZdExzbkR4ZzZudjRZQ2FXTzVVd2Fqb3lBN05zSktIVnZJREFqc3hQRWtqd3kyMGxWUGlXSVd0Z0pHWUtuY3FpdmNMU25lMjVNTTh5V25taElQNmV4S0dyaGRoa3FubzFheUczYVFPamVIUXlCODV1ak1MRElWM0Rld0VIVGdONi16bkszTVlDeWdVRFI5QXQybWtudHFLOHg1WFJMNG9CanpmSzBMODkyTHJCbldmb1I0VWZMZz09 |
