Of course they will. My mess is 100x better than the mess that was originally there. The whole setup is already running smoothly though and the student would be able to fix it easily if it wasn't for that one piece of crap I had to keep working.
At least the kid won't have to go buy a BNC crimper and connectors like I did at first. He may however accidentally make a bad enough tangle of the system that they have to upgrade it, which is a net positive in my opinion.
Whats left there in the way of a mess is the fault of the business owners not wanting to change, it has very little to do with me.
I for one use chat so that I don't have to talk to anyone... including the option to talk to the person isn't making my day any better.
This is a very useful calls for cheap feature, but I hope they add a way to disable it. Maybe a sort of "mute" button but the mute hides your ability to talk to the other person.
I know that sounds anti social, but I spend a good portion of my day glued to a phone for business reasons. I don't feel like being glued to one again at night for family reasons.
It was 100% right. If I had a 2-3 hour time period to get a nap or something in the middle of the day I'd get twice as much done in my afternoons. I currently get about half as much done in the afternoon as I get done in the morning. Leading to a trend for me of coming in early to get work done rather than staying late.
They already do this in(at least some, in newfoundland)hospitals in Canada. They had an issue with pink and red tubes that they wanted to use because the men couldn't tell them apart something like 70% of the time. So the pink tube is now green iirc.
I couldn't have left any traces, most of my trouble involved working with what was already there rather than going a step above my required duties and replacing it. They did get a much much more easily maintained system when I left than what they had when I got there.
Even if they had fired me halfway through and I didn't have time to fix up a few things before I left they would have had less of a mess than when I started. There just wasn't much in the way of documentation for some patches.
Did I mention they had a custom piece of software that was critical that was written in BASIC? oh, and partly in a french version of BASIC and partly in english? running in a BASIC emulator that the english coders dug up somewhere that would support both.
The "trouble" I had to go to was actually leaving things mostly as they were and fixing within the mess that was there. There were legitimate reasons, I didn't actually have time to overhaul everything until I was getting ready to hand in my notice and I TOOK the time.
I did my job, and I did it well, just not as well as I could have as I would have put myself out of a job in short order.
Nothing was purposely sabotaged, it was just complicated enough that they couldn't replace me with your average straight out of college/university student. Most networks reach this complexity pretty fast anyways.
As for this situation, its never going to happen again. Some of it happened because I didn't have time for documentation etc... some of it needed a solution to work around some old internal software they were using. In the end just to get everything to a point where someone could take over relatively easily I had to leave some of my custom code in place. The particular piece of software was running clients on VT220 emulators, was written in BASIC and had 3 layers of emulator on the server when I started there just to get it to work. Sure it was rock stable, which was why they hadn't replaced it, but it was a bit of a pain in the ass. When I left the whole situation was much better.
As I said, there were legitimate reasons. One of them being I didn't have time to fix and move everything over from the ARCnet that was installed to ethernet.
Basically, the whole thing was complex enough by necessity of them not wanting to change out that piece of software that in order to make it fixable I essentially just made them a "recovery cd" that will format the current server, or another replacement server(to a point, in 5-10 years the replacement if its new would have driver issues) and set everything up as it was, grabbing data from a usb drive to catch their system up to the most recent backup. I simplified how the server was running as well so that if the recovery disc doesn't work they're looking at a much smaller bill than they originally would have been.
Yes, I actually agree. I likely wouldn't have left it that way even if they had fired me but as I said, there were actually legitimate reasons for all of it. The thing was this company was so F&^Ked up that they would on occasion attempt to have me replaced while I was still there, even though I wasn't doing anything wrong, keeping everything in tip top shape, being polite etc, but they would try to replace me with someone that wasn't going to cost them as much money, and we're not talking like even a $10/hour savings, just a $3-5/hour savings.
Sometimes sysadmins have no choice. When you're getting dicked around you have to fight dickery with more dickery.
IT is probably the least appreciated field in the world as well, and its getting worse. Sure some folks get to work for good companies, but when your job security is basically on the whim of the boss that day, not because they don't need you, but because they think they don't(and end up paying double in external fees after they can you, then try to hire you back(didn't happen to me, but did happen to a friend of mine))... you're almost forced into it.
I've worked in a highly stressful environment before where I didn't know if I was going to still have a job the next day or not. I had everything set up sufficiently complex but still for good reasons, that if they had fired me getting someone else to fix it would have been a nightmare and cost them a fortune, which they would find out as soon as they tried to get someone else to go in and fix it.
Since I left on good terms I overhauled everything before I left and took out most of the non bog standard bits I had implemented. They ended up with a slightly worse but fixable in a pinch system.
Had the work environment been less stressful I wouldn't have felt it necessary to go through all of the trouble, but they decided to make it that way, so I decided to build some security into my job that was otherwise nonexistant.
Its really too bad they partially debunked the guy that proved that the light speed limit was little more than a myth. I'm hoping for new evidence to back up a non-existance of a light speed barrier.
Theoretically though, if you could somehow make an engine constantly add thrust and never plateau due to relativity(where max speed would be the maximum exit speed of the particles being used for propulsion) you could exceed light speed.
I really think we need a lab somewhere in space. Something along the terms of the Jump Zero station from the Mass Effect universe where we can experiment in space without too much worry. The current situation means it isn't even possible for a raw space test, there are always fairly significant forces acting on whatever you are doing as long as you are within the solar system. Getting into semi-deep empty space for some experiments may open a lot of doors.
To conclude: Damn you relativity! DAMN YOU TO HELL! **sob**
Your average 1200 sq ft bungalow needs 6880 square feet of r20 insulation (a little less since you can take stud width out, but you usually leave that in and just come up a few bags over)
That means properly insulated, r40 roof, r40 floor and r20 walls. Average bag of insulation should be around $35 CAD or $30 USD and does about 50 square feet on the average(usually a bit less, and the reason you leave in the stud widths if using regular lumber). So in total you need about 138 bags of insulation to do it right. Grand total cost is around 5k CAD or a bit less USD and you'll save enough in AC/Heat in the first 3 years in most places to be in money from doing it, so any argument about up front capital cost is moot as average time spent in a purchased home before selling is well over 3 years, at least in Canada. Especially when you consider average house cost is over 100k(a lot over 100k in some cases), even for that modest bungalow. 5k isn't much to tack on when theres already 100k going into the place.
Thats not including your basement if it exists but a good vapour barrier and 2 layers of R7 1.5 inch styro around all of the interior cement, a good water barrier on the outside and a good sealer and sub floor on the cement floor will remove the r40 floor as a necessity(probably still want to do r20 just for sound reasons, at least, I know I would) and cover the insulation needs the same. Shit, an uninsulated basement is probably the #1 cause of overpaying on heat bills, again, in canada, but I can't imagine its much different south of the border. I've had people cut their heat bills in half with just the double styro insulation around the cement.
Whoops, old habits die hard. I thought I'd killed that one awhile back. Apologies to anyone whose brains I may have broken a little bit while reading my post.:P
I apologize for my laymans terms and potentially making it seem more easy than it is, but I use that description frequently because it does, in laymans terms, and somewhat inaccurately, but close enough for general understanding purposes, describe it. It doesn't have anything to do with any gross misunderstanding on my part as you claim. Though your entire post seems to be a thinly veiled attack on hESCs in general. My apologies if I misread you.
IPS's as I understand it are inferior forms of stem cells for a number of reasons, which I won't mention here as there are already several long posts on why with citations in this stories comments.
Adult stem cells don't have anywhere near the potential of embryonic stem cells and the current advantage for some forms of treatment exists in the fact that they are already tailored to the patients DNA/Required Tissue area. As you do mention accurate implantation of embryonic stem cells is one of the major areas that needs a big breakthrough in order for them to reach their full potential, but as such, once a method is obtained to do so with good consistency the cancer problem will dissipate rapidly and the benefits will remain. More accurate implantation = less rogue embryonic stem cells that could end up in someones treatment.
The whole tech is very new and thus there are problems. Ignoring any area of research, especially one that shows the huge promise of hESCs would be negligent beyond imagining.
Abortions can and do occur at this stage, but you are correct on the miscarriages. Miscarriages mostly provide different types of stem cells, but there have been some research milestones made from research on them, but less in the stem cell area and more in the genetic toolkit areas.
Right, so I really shouldn't answer you, but I'll repeat myself anyways since you didn't read my post.
"they can basically grow them in a petri dish almost indefinitely and multiply them almost infinitely"
This nearly infinite amount from a single line sort of negates your argument in its entirety, and new technology and methods are pushing that nearly infinite line further and further back into effectively infinite territory.
Basically, as there is a finite amount of variation in human genetic code that needs to be accounted for, there is a finite amount of lines that could ever be needed. As research continues it may even cease the need for new lines almost entirely since they will eventually develop a method for creating entirely new lines from existing lines.
Also, IVF is and will continue to be a major source of these stem cells for reasons I mentioned elsewhere in the comments on this story.
Honestly, if I had mod points, this would get a +1 insightful. If you oppose something and then use it to benefit yourself you should damn well be held accountable for your actions.
Congrats, you know nothing at all about how IVF works.
One of the major expenses in IVF is creating the embryos to begin with, however the cost is relatively the same thing whether they create 1 or 100(to a point anyways, its not limitless where the cost is the same but I believe it is in the hundreds somewhere before the cost increases by a significant amount). Theres a decent chance that the first lot won't take, so they always do two batches to get the success rates up to 75-80% or so. In addition they may implant up to 8 embryos in one shot to get just one to latch on. The womans natural systems will flush the remaining 7 out the door, going by a lot of the idiotic pro-life spiel, that woman just killed 7 kids.
As an aside, a woman who tries to/gets pregnant naturally will likely flush several full fledged embryos out due to misfortune and natural occurrences. The extras from IVF can basically be considered the same thing we just can't use the natural ones because we don't catch them. Saying that killing an embryo is murder is calling almost every woman thats been pregnant a murderer. I say almost because there is that 0.00001% that may have had a pregnancy without discharging a viable embryo either at the same time or at another time while trying due to it not landing in the right place and various other misfortunes.
I'm not exactly a bio chem geek per say, but I have done a fair amount of research, particularly into the embryonic stem cell thing.
The problem is, destroying embryo's purposefully is what people think it always entails, in reality thats just a shortcut. Once they have embryonic stem cells from a source(something like a miscarriage etc, cells that would have been destroyed anyways) they can basically grow them in a petri dish almost indefinitely and multiply them almost infinitely. After they have a line of embryonic stem cells going they add a slurry of your DNA to them and viola, embryonic stem cells tailored to you without all that nasty purposely killing embryo's. The thing is, they need more lines of embryonic stem cells as the closer the original is to your line the easier it is for your own tailored cure, but that goes for both types of embryonic stem cells, however it adds more layers of difficulty to the non embryo destroying method than the embryo destroying one, hence the need for more lines.
There are so many miscarriages and abortions anyways that theres no need to not use the byproduct for something useful. Its either use it or it goes in the garbage anyways.
Any real bio chem geek feel free to correct me if I've jumbled things badly, but from what I understand, the funding was also conditional upon no embryo destruction, but lifted the blanket restriction against research into stem cells originating from embryo's period.
They did used to be free, the problem was a lot of people were using them as a Taxi service, so they had to start charging something to discourage this behavior. Fact of the matter is, some people still use them as a taxi service because its still cheaper to pay the ambulance bill to get to a hospital from where ever they're from.
Uhg. Not to sound like a bastard, or sexist, but we have this in Canada too, and its getting bloody ridiculous. Its going to be to the point soon where women abusing the law to get what they want or get revenge on someone are going to equal or outweigh the amount of legitimate rapes reported.
Thats not to say a lot of rapes don't still go unreported, but some of the leanings have swung too far in favor of believing women no matter what the story is. I have a friend that I know for a fact wouldn't (and couldn't) have raped one of his ex girlfriends, he spent a lot of time in jail for some fake story that the police believed over his real testimony and alibi.
He wouldn't, and couldn't(the alibi had like a 20 minute hole in it in which he supposedly walked two ways at a nice bit over 10 minutes each way and somehow raped her in between), have done it back then. I saw him again a little while ago, and after going through the jail system for something he didn't do... could he do it now? Very probably. I know I have far less respect for all women now because of it.

But I just remembered that I filled out a Canadian census card a few years ago just to register my religion as Jedi.
It was 100% right. If I had a 2-3 hour time period to get a nap or something in the middle of the day I'd get twice as much done in my afternoons. I currently get about half as much done in the afternoon as I get done in the morning. Leading to a trend for me of coming in early to get work done rather than staying late.
I saw the movie only in 2D... and I have to say, the movie DID suck. it was bad, very bad. 3d probably made it good, but I can't compare really.
As a normal movie, avatar was just plain bad.

If he did he just doubled the real estimate for some reason... I suspect he overshot on a 2000 sqft home and typoed that.
