Why don't all you old people start your own company and only hire old people? Those under 40 are not a protected class. With all the collective experience you would have you should be able to compete against the big boys.
the failure of individuals to save for the future.
Save what? We make only one quarter of what are forbears did after you adjust for inflation against the PCI index. To make the mean salary of a person from 1957 you would need to be pulling in $250k today... and that's just to be average.
It's not because your obsolete, it's because you're too expensive. When I was young I was lucky to get $40k, now I can command six figures. It's because I have experience. If you want more professional programmers then pony up the cash for experienced professionals... you get what you pay for and there is no free lunch.
If you are a senior professional, the important thing to remember is don't price yourself out of the market. For me, salary is usually the last thing I think about during the job hunt, I'm more interested in finding a role doing something that I enjoy and something that can benefit from my experience. As long as pay is within two standard deviations from the national average I'll seriously consider the offer. Also pay isn't everything, I prefer companies with a good benefits package and ones that are stable with a proven track record.
All I can say is duh at the results of the study. Most doctors, who are not endocrinologists, don't understand that the the androgen cycle is a negative feedback loop. That means that if you are a heathy adult on TRT your body will compensate for the extra testosterone in your body by producing less testosterone in your gonads. Any endocrinologist worth their salt knows this. This is why you never take TRT if you are trying to have children, because TRT can make you sterile by halting testosterone production in the gonads. You need to take clomid instead of TRT if you want to get around this negative feedback cycle.
Perhaps you should have provided some concrete details yourself, then.
He is right about the antioxidants. Research NRF2, from what I recall it is a negative feedback loop. The more Endogenous antioxidants you take the less exogenous antioxidants you make. This is bad because the bodies naturally produced antioxidants are better, in particular glutathione. Rather than taking endrogenous antioxidants, I recommend taking the prodrugs that your body needs to produce exogenous antioxidants. i.g. Acetylcysteine and Calcitriol (glutathione catalyst).
Schizophrenia is a hardware problem (though it can be triggered emotionally and/or with misc. drugs).
In humans, the line between hardware and software is indelible. Or, you might just say that it's squishy and permeable.
It would be better to think of the brain in terms of a FPGA because there is no higher ordered operating system software that is running on the hardware.
That phrase just described everything that is wrong with corporate America. Trying to make a buck on the backs of others will not lead us to a sustainable future. The for-profit corporations need to prioritize the interests of the public at large rather then the shareholders desires to get rich. We really need to find a way to decouple shareholders profit agenda from the decision making process of executive leadership. Also we need to cap executive salaries somehow, it seems that many of these executives are literally addicted to money and this addition is causing them to make choices that harm society.
Comically applaud? Buddy there are currently 10 billion devices connected to the Internet, contrast that with a merger 500 million people who speak English. By 2020 it's estimated 50 billion devices will be connected to the Internet. I comically applaud you for wasting your time trying to master a 2nd way to communicate with people. You're ignoring the root problem... all people can't know all languages, so if effective communication is truly the goal then what you really need to do is kill off these secondary languages and standardize on just a few of them.
When you make a product that people don't want what do you expect? If Apple would listen to their professional customers and build products that they want then you would not be seeing this. The professionals are the group that drove adoption of the consumer products, don't forget that. As a IT specialist, people ask me all the time what to get and they usually get what I tell them to, so be cognizant of the consequence of pissing of your professional users because they are the group of people recommending your products to others. Word of mouth advertising is worth it's weight in gold.
Looks like this is the end of Sun SPARC and Solaris.
Good riddance if you ask me, it was getting quite antiquated relative to Linux. Now we just need to kill off AIX. Hopefully everyone will standardize around Linux and BSD.
You must be a sadomasochist. How can you have a soft spot for anything who's default shell is still ksh? It felt like I was stuck in the 80s every time I had to administer Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX.
Why is Linux's share of the desktop market so abysmally low
Application support. Lack of professional desktop applications, lack of unified development tool kits, lack of a unified desktop experience, and lack of ease of use in administering said applications. If you have to resort to a terminal to install or manage an application you have failed badly at easy of use. Desktop applications should be statically compiled objects like they are on the Mac. You double click on it and it just runs, you throw it in the trash can to delete it. The fact that the Linux crowed still doesn't get this is yet another reason why Linux desktop market share is so low.
My personal opinion is that the community took a wrong turn when it standardized around GTK, QT was, and still is, clearly superior.
I have found that RHEL is too stagnate / static to keep pace with the rate at which the kernel is now developed. The 3.10 kernel is four years old at this point and the fact that RHEL7 will be in production support until 2024 is disheartening because the enterprise industry will be a decade behind the latest kernel developments and updates from associated projects. Compared to other vendors Linux offerings, when I use RHEL I get the same feelings I got when I was force to use AIX, HP-UX, and Solaris. I hated administrating those products because they were stuck with defaults like ksh from a decade ago.
My question is, would Red Hat ever consider releasing a Linux distribution with a shorter development cycle and with more aggressive tracking of upstream projects? I see a place for a distribution that is somewhere in between RHEL and Fedora. Perhaps you could morph or fork CentOS into the upstream development for RHEL? For example: Upstream --> Fedora (Bleeding Edge) --> CentOS (Next Release of RHEL) --> RHEL. This would give system engineers and architects a greater range of products to choose from and it could help stabilize RHEL even more then it already is.
In short, the Linux kernel is the largest and the fastest moving software project in the world, so what changes are you going to make to keep up with it?
Because the amount of vitamin D available in food sources is piss poor in general. The effective natural way to get it is to go on the sun. This has orders of magnitude more effect than diet.
Not only is it piss poor, the vitamin D2 supplemented in food sources can't be converted into the active metabolite of vitamin D3. D2 is for bones, D3 is for the brain.
Don't forget schizophrenia too. Vitamin D3 deficiency (Calcitriol) is why black mothers who give birth in winter months have a significantly high percentage of having a child that develops schizophrenia. D3 has a strong catalytic effect on glutathione production in the brain (PMID 10428085), and without adequate glutathione the body will not have a way to control reactive oxygen species. This oxidative stress then irrevocably damages the brain during fetal development and you end up with a wide range of problems down the road like Autism and mental health problems.
Also don't forget that the half-life for the active metabolite of vitamin D is on the order of 21 days. That means it takes about 5 months to reach steady state. One of the best advice I can recommend is that all pregnant women take at least 2,000 IU of D3 per day, with a 21 day 4,000 I.U. loading dose.
Incidentally, Friedman also supported the most reasonable solution to the problem we'll be facing - a universal basic income.
And exactly where does this *magic* money come from to pay out all this Universal Basic Income?
If hardly anyone is working where does this magic money come from?
Corporations, you can start by taxing them more. Perhaps we could go as far as banning for-profit corporations, all companies could be public-benefit corporations.

We really need to find a way to decouple shareholders profit agenda from the decision making process of executive leadership.

As far as what languages. Focus on Bash, Awk, Python, C++, and Swift.

AIX is easier to administer than Linux.
AIX is an abomination. ODM, smitty? Umm no thanks. I liked the POWER platform though.
Looks like this is the end of Sun SPARC and Solaris.
Good riddance if you ask me, it was getting quite antiquated relative to Linux. Now we just need to kill off AIX. Hopefully everyone will standardize around Linux and BSD.

sprawling abomination.
