This is required for some keyboard layouts. For Example: Swiss German Keyboard Layout. CAPS is a separate keyboard state. CAPS ON, Key !== SHIFT+Key
[u-UMLAUT] = [u-UMLAUT] Shift-[u-UMLAUT] = [e-acute] CAPS ON, [u-umlaut] = [U-umlaut] CAPS ON, Shift-[u-umlaut] = [E-umlaut]
Thus, to type capital [e-acute]; one would go: Caps; shift-[u-umlaut]; Caps. For Capital [u-umlaut]; Caps; [u-umlaut]; Caps.
For other non-latin layouts: CAPS lock is a toggle between QWERTY and native
This is the same in Czech Layout: The top row of keys are + e^ s^ c^ r^ z^ y' a' i' e' = Shift top row = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 % Caps: + E^ S^ C^ R^ Z^ Y' A' I' E' = Caps Shift: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 %
In others, CAPS != SHIFT. Devanagari: Caps state is ignored, but SHIFT keys change letter selection. Thus CAPS-O == O (dependant-O); and CAPS-SHIFT-O = SHIFT-O (independent-O)
1. This would be horrible for anyone using some non US-English keyboards; For Example: Swiss German Keyboard Layout. CAPS is a separate keyboard state. CAPS ON, Key !== SHIFT+Key
ü = ü Shift-ü = è CAPS ON, ü = Ü CAPS ON, Shift-ü = È
The Caps Lock key is needed. Sure, you can always use ALT-GR ', SHIFT-E; but that does get very tiring, if you always need to use four-button, two-keystroke combos to type fundamental letters in your alphabet.

That logic doesn't apply for most non-US layouts; and most Americans don't realise that the concept of a right-alt key being required is needed. And that due to proliferation of US keyboards and Windows back in the day: ALT-GR ~== CTRL-ALT. Some apps will treat it as CTRL-ALT (incorrectly), some will treat it as ALT-GR. Thus, some applications fail hard when they try to make CTRL-ALT accceleratiors, that can't be typed; or they override the letter on the keyboard (which is probably worse)
You have three modifier keys: CTRL, ALT, ALTGR, CTRL For instance, to type @ on the standard german layout, it's ALTGR-Q The Canadian Multilingual Layout (Federal Standard) does this better by having CTRL, ALT, ALTGR, CTRLGR (i.e. there are four alpha states: NONE, SHIFT, ALTGR, CTRLGR)
I so wish Fortran wasn't nearly as popular as it is. I am always being innundated with job offers in a surprisingly large number of uninteresting (to me) fields.
Not having a key-pad on the laptop would be a no-go at our office; and for my personal laptops. I have to enter numbers quite often; and doing quick calculations is very easy to do touch-typing (not looking at keyboard)
I tried the num-lock keyboard thing on older laptops, but having they keypad un-aligned across the GCR HTN MWV makes it too error prone.

We had the choice to get vaccines growing up (2nd grade, 6 y/o). They explained it to us, and most took it because of the dire warnings and videos of people with diseases. They showed us filmstrips from the 40s and 50s about measels, diphtheria, whooping cough, scarlet fever,..., and that pretty much scared people more than the needles (which I would say didn't really bother half the class). For the few who didn't want to, they were just goaded into it by peer pressure of all their friends and classmates (either by comforting or mocking, depending on gender). Kids are cruel, and also don't want to be excluded for chickening out / being afraid (and then teased). It's pretty effective.
The Diphtheria vaccine doesn't prevent infection, it only immunizes against the effects of the toxin the bacteria produce.
Thus, it's still around and kicking, it just doesn't kill people anymore as most people can fight off the infection on their own without the toxin wreaking havoc on their body. And most people won't even notice anything other than "flu-like symptoms" as all the effects of Diptheria are caused by the toxin, rather than the presence of the bacterial infection.
The poor kid probably just got coughed on, or touched something and then cross-contaminated something he put in his mouth.
That's the asymptote that needs to be addressed separate due to a division by 0.
The correct answer is an infinite number of points around the south pole, with the exception of the south pole itself, and the north pole.
Or in words:
Given C = 1 mile, there is an longitudinal (East-West) circle north around the south pole with a circumference of 1 mile. Any point on this line is an answer. As does any whole divisor of this (1/3 mile circumference is traversed three times in one mile, but back at the same starting point.)
So C(1/1) + C(1/2) + C(1/3) + C(1/4) + C(1/n) And more generally = C(1/n) where n != 0 is a circle around the south pole, and n==0 is the north pole solution, whose division by 0 needs resolution by analysis (which is more obvious)
I would wager that 80% of my social circle all don't have a Facebook account. (age 28-36), non-tech people primarily [doctors, grad students, mechanic, cooks, artists]; all university educated, and well-learned.
It's generally not viewed as a "safe" item to have, or to participate in. We are the transitory age of people where the internet kinda took off during high-cshool, and for me, the huge dot-com crash happened the year before I entered college, so I was completely isolated from that entire scenario, and have no real context for it. But, it presumably shaped how our education was, and to be taught to be suspicious of consolodating information online, because "anything you say can and will be used against you"
There are 6 properties on the access road between his house, and the main Street. It's kinda laid out like a |::# . # = street.:: = four houses along the access road. | his house capping the access road.
He's half a mile from the trunk along the primary street. Not from his neighbours.
I think many people are severely overpaid. There is no reason Software Engineers should be making for than 50k a year. All professions should be starting out at minimum wage**, and go from there to a sensible, and non-greedy maximum for your location.
THere should be an overarching downward drive on employment-based income; and more functionally put towards lowering housing and food costs for everyone. That way, everyone will then be bale to hold a job that enjoy and want to do, rather than choose one based on earnings potential. If earnings potential were levelled out and made even for every industry, there'd be no reason to not chase your dreams. And yes, there are people who enjoy sanitation work, or figuring out optimised solutions to problems otherwise not given a second thought, because minimum wage is too low to live off of.
Minimum wage really should be up towards $20/hr. And highly paid industries need to have their gross compensation chopped aggressively.
In our school, we had very easy access to pot. The biggest users, the top echelon of the students. Football players, valedictorian, the upper 10 percentile of the school. I must say, that it really is more a matter of the person using it and their mental discipline, rather than the substance. Three of my friends went downhill fast, becoming complete stoners and basement dwellers using it as an escape. Many more, including myslef, all graduted at or near the top of our respective classes.
caveat: Canadian Education. We actually learned about drugs and alcohol in our school district, and how to experiment with them. More importantly, how to understand and/or deal with the effects you'll be experiencing (mindfullness, grounding self into reality, having music around to keep time flowing well, how to clear your mind and focus on this reality (for psychedelics), how to escape mental traps/holes) I assume it was a much different an experience than places where kids are basically throwing a dart and then crawling around in the dark from there.
Mushrooms in the last year has actually been shown to normalize the brains internal connections.
Functional MRI scans basically shown that the primary dominant connections were weakened, and many more weak or non-existant neural connections were strengthened. It basically levelled out the inherant biases and neurons we strengthened from our day-to-day existance, and shows what sort of mind-body-thought connection can be done if we were able to focus on being less drawn-to/averse-to various stimuli.
It's a good introduction to what the mind can accomplish naturally, and people can reach these same states after years of meditation, and mental training. Having been introduced to the experience, it makes it easier to understand many of the meditation techniques, as you now have a common point of reference as to what they were referring to. That said, this assumes you're taking mushrooms and actually internally retrospecting and consciously exploring the experience with full mindfulness, and not using it recreationally or just letting the experience happen to you without any analytical mind.
A behaviour therapist in the area has made simply stated, amazing progress with Austic children using less than conventional methods. The main technique he used was in-house, all day LSD/Mushroom trips, depending on how trapped in their own mind the child was. The net result, was during the trip, each child was basically in awe with the surrounding, intently focused outwards on the objects that were once familiar. And generally a ot more calm and quiet during. And as the day wore on, and ended. The child was talked to, kept calm, music playing.
This led to every one of the patients having an amazing transformation. (I'm sure that they intentionally omitted mentioning any children that didn'th ave an amazing transformation) One kid actually started to put in a very, very concerted effort concentrating trying to speak words and to verbally communicate. Others were much calmer and generally easier to integrate into day-to-day living. Sure they were all still outside the band of "normal", but they all made unbelieveably progress towards it, that the parents are universally thinking it's a miracle.
All this said, LSD was used for those who were semi-responsive to the outside world. (more common cases) Mushrooms were used for those who were not in tune with their bodies (immobile, lots of flailing, etc;) The sessions were done in the childs home, with parents around, calming classical music playing and just watching and idly interacting with the child. But otherwise letting the child calmly work thruogh the experience. The first session had the psychiatrist around to guide the child, calmingly talk to the child, and to help the parents who haven't had experinecs with said substances, understand what was going on, and what to expect. This definitely isn't a "drug up your kids and let them have a trip" lots of effort went into ensuring it was a good trip for teh child, and to allow the child to start to mentally focus on the external world.
14,000kg = 14,000,000g = 14,000,000,000 mg HRT dose ranges from 100-200mg/wk for legitimate use. (500-1000mg/wk for recreational) 14,000kg / (100mg/wk * 52wk) = 2,692,307 people at 100mg/wk for 1 year = 1,346,153 people at 200mg/wk for 1 year = 673,076 people at 400mg/wk for 1 year
First doctor was lazy in Rx writing and just wrote 1mL 2x/wk (which renders a Rx for 400mg/wk) Even though verbal instructions were 1mL every 5 days (250mg/wk)
Testosterone injections, rather than Androgel is significantly cheaper. $25 for 10mL(200mg/mL) without insurance. For me, that's $25 for a 3 month supply. (supposed to chuck the rest of the vial at that point, even though it's still not empty) The largest expense is the lab work, but paying cash out of pocket comes out to $350 / year;
So, the cost for HRT with no insurance, is $450 annually. That's less than $25/month.
And insurance will cover my visit to the Endocrinologist, but they won't cover the actual Rx or the Labs they see no value in.
But, with the shots, you have to a) change your diet to actually get the 30g of soluable fibre a day (to control higher cholesterol) b) perform a lot more cardio exercise (to maintain CV health) c) preferably donate blood (to rid of excess red blood cells, keep blood pressure in check)
Not a free ride, but it does help significantly to the daily quality of living.
According to the latest Dec 2014 Reports in Colorado, they brought in $44 million for the time period 2014-01 to 2014-11. Which although less than the planned 65 million (Nov brought in $7m so Dec could bring the total to $52 assuming monthly upward trend continues), is still a lot of revenue to fund schools, improve infrastructure and enforcement.
Though one still has to wonder how many cartels own pot dispensaries now:D

= C(1/n) where n != 0 is a circle around the south pole, and n==0 is the north pole solution, whose division by 0 needs resolution by analysis (which is more obvious)
I would wager that 80% of my social circle all don't have a Facebook account. (age 28-36), non-tech people primarily [doctors, grad students, mechanic, cooks, artists]; all university educated, and well-learned.
It's generally not viewed as a "safe" item to have, or to participate in.
We are the transitory age of people where the internet kinda took off during high-cshool, and for me, the huge dot-com crash happened the year before I entered college, so I was completely isolated from that entire scenario, and have no real context for it. But, it presumably shaped how our education was, and to be taught to be suspicious of consolodating information online, because "anything you say can and will be used against you"
There are 6 properties on the access road between his house, and the main Street. It's kinda laid out like a |::# . # = street. :: = four houses along the access road. | his house capping the access road.
He's half a mile from the trunk along the primary street. Not from his neighbours.
I think many people are severely overpaid.
There is no reason Software Engineers should be making for than 50k a year.
All professions should be starting out at minimum wage**, and go from there to a sensible, and non-greedy maximum for your location.
THere should be an overarching downward drive on employment-based income; and more functionally put towards lowering housing and food costs for everyone. That way, everyone will then be bale to hold a job that enjoy and want to do, rather than choose one based on earnings potential. If earnings potential were levelled out and made even for every industry, there'd be no reason to not chase your dreams. And yes, there are people who enjoy sanitation work, or figuring out optimised solutions to problems otherwise not given a second thought, because minimum wage is too low to live off of.
Minimum wage really should be up towards $20/hr.
And highly paid industries need to have their gross compensation chopped aggressively.
In our school, we had very easy access to pot.
The biggest users, the top echelon of the students.
Football players, valedictorian, the upper 10 percentile of the school.
I must say, that it really is more a matter of the person using it and their mental discipline, rather than the substance.
Three of my friends went downhill fast, becoming complete stoners and basement dwellers using it as an escape.
Many more, including myslef, all graduted at or near the top of our respective classes.
caveat: Canadian Education. We actually learned about drugs and alcohol in our school district, and how to experiment with them.
More importantly, how to understand and/or deal with the effects you'll be experiencing (mindfullness, grounding self into reality, having music around to keep time flowing well, how to clear your mind and focus on this reality (for psychedelics), how to escape mental traps/holes)
I assume it was a much different an experience than places where kids are basically throwing a dart and then crawling around in the dark from there.
Mushrooms in the last year has actually been shown to normalize the brains internal connections.
Functional MRI scans basically shown that the primary dominant connections were weakened, and many more weak or non-existant neural connections were strengthened. It basically levelled out the inherant biases and neurons we strengthened from our day-to-day existance, and shows what sort of mind-body-thought connection can be done if we were able to focus on being less drawn-to/averse-to various stimuli.
It's a good introduction to what the mind can accomplish naturally, and people can reach these same states after years of meditation, and mental training. Having been introduced to the experience, it makes it easier to understand many of the meditation techniques, as you now have a common point of reference as to what they were referring to. That said, this assumes you're taking mushrooms and actually internally retrospecting and consciously exploring the experience with full mindfulness, and not using it recreationally or just letting the experience happen to you without any analytical mind.
A behaviour therapist in the area has made simply stated, amazing progress with Austic children using less than conventional methods.
The main technique he used was in-house, all day LSD/Mushroom trips, depending on how trapped in their own mind the child was.
The net result, was during the trip, each child was basically in awe with the surrounding, intently focused outwards on the objects that were once familiar. And generally a ot more calm and quiet during. And as the day wore on, and ended. The child was talked to, kept calm, music playing.
This led to every one of the patients having an amazing transformation. (I'm sure that they intentionally omitted mentioning any children that didn'th ave an amazing transformation)
One kid actually started to put in a very, very concerted effort concentrating trying to speak words and to verbally communicate.
Others were much calmer and generally easier to integrate into day-to-day living.
Sure they were all still outside the band of "normal", but they all made unbelieveably progress towards it, that the parents are universally thinking it's a miracle.
All this said,
LSD was used for those who were semi-responsive to the outside world. (more common cases)
Mushrooms were used for those who were not in tune with their bodies (immobile, lots of flailing, etc;)
The sessions were done in the childs home, with parents around, calming classical music playing and just watching and idly interacting with the child. But otherwise letting the child calmly work thruogh the experience.
The first session had the psychiatrist around to guide the child, calmingly talk to the child, and to help the parents who haven't had experinecs with said substances, understand what was going on, and what to expect.
This definitely isn't a "drug up your kids and let them have a trip" lots of effort went into ensuring it was a good trip for teh child, and to allow the child to start to mentally focus on the external world.
14,000kg = 14,000,000g = 14,000,000,000 mg
HRT dose ranges from 100-200mg/wk for legitimate use. (500-1000mg/wk for recreational)
14,000kg / (100mg/wk * 52wk)
= 2,692,307 people at 100mg/wk for 1 year
= 1,346,153 people at 200mg/wk for 1 year
= 673,076 people at 400mg/wk for 1 year
First doctor was lazy in Rx writing and just wrote 1mL 2x/wk (which renders a Rx for 400mg/wk)
Even though verbal instructions were 1mL every 5 days (250mg/wk)
Testosterone injections, rather than Androgel is significantly cheaper. $25 for 10mL(200mg/mL) without insurance.
For me, that's $25 for a 3 month supply. (supposed to chuck the rest of the vial at that point, even though it's still not empty)
The largest expense is the lab work, but paying cash out of pocket comes out to $350 / year;
So, the cost for HRT with no insurance, is $450 annually.
That's less than $25/month.
And insurance will cover my visit to the Endocrinologist, but they won't cover the actual Rx or the Labs they see no value in.
But, with the shots, you have to
a) change your diet to actually get the 30g of soluable fibre a day (to control higher cholesterol)
b) perform a lot more cardio exercise (to maintain CV health)
c) preferably donate blood (to rid of excess red blood cells, keep blood pressure in check)
Not a free ride, but it does help significantly to the daily quality of living.
According to the latest Dec 2014 Reports in Colorado, they brought in $44 million for the time period 2014-01 to 2014-11.
Which although less than the planned 65 million (Nov brought in $7m so Dec could bring the total to $52 assuming monthly upward trend continues), is still a lot of revenue to fund schools, improve infrastructure and enforcement.
Though one still has to wonder how many cartels own pot dispensaries now :D
