Yeah, no.

> If we fall short, we will spin ad infinitum worrying about it.

Nope.

> Its a deep rooted need within us and cannot be rationalized away, similar to rationalizing you are full when you haven't eaten for a long time.

Lol. No.

> Lose weight, eat right, get fit, etc etc etc

I lost 120 lb's and got down to 10% body fat when I was in my early 20's (300 to 180) having been extremely fat my whole life up to that point. I was still a nervous wreck with severe self confidence issues. I did it for women like OP says to above. Please don't make the same mistake I did. Do it for yourself. Do it for your own health. If you do it for such shallow reasons like the OP is saying, you won't keep it off. It takes work and it takes time. Also, you don't need to be fit with a 6 pack to talk to/pick up/ask out women. All you need is self confidence, and thats not something you can get by lifting weights. Anybody who tells you different is naive and a fool (and probably more insecure than you). The best piece of advice I ever got when it comes to confidence: Know yourself, appreciate yourself, love yourself - if you can't do any of those things how do you expect someone else to.

Another thing to note (after speaking with them on a few occasions) is that they are only providing cluster support to their enterprise offering which wont be available till this summer. They do offer Relay which is their high availability tool for the open source version.[1] You really won't need clustering unless you're doing an insane amount of writes: single server performance is insane right now. We average 10k writes/sec with bursts up to 5x that and it doesn't break a sweat (on a cheap 2 cpu/7gb ram instance, with ssd block storage).

Come work with a small knit group of engineers in a rapidly expanding market - renewable energy. We're primarily looking for a senior Ruby on Rails developer to work on our flagship SaaS product, but would love for you to also be open to hacking on other technologies (NodeJS, Go, Aurelia, etc) as we build out new and exciting products for our industry. We would prefer on-site, but for the the right candidate we will allow remote. Also a plus if you can geek out on data as we are moving towards analytics and machine learning on our rapidly growing dataset.

If you want to find out more or meet for up for a coffee, email me: [email protected] with the subject HN.

Usually the top streams in the Arma 3 directory are RP streams.

To me this is clearly non-sense as someone who's followed this path (and know others who have as well). Being an architect allows me to see the big picture and move the organization in the right direction (as we see it), while still being able to get into the trenches with my developers when something arises or help is needed. Granted, this is different for large enterprises but for startups/small/mid sized businesses, yes, us architects still get our hands dirty (or else we're irrelevant).

I wouldn't. And what OP said is absolutely true when it comes to nootropics. Moda should not be taken lightly. Start with the basics and work your way up.

Out of curiosity, why Spark over Scalatra? (http://scalatra.org/)

There is no such thing as "sales", and you aren't a "salesman". You provide a solution to a problem. Listen, understand, and then offer a solution.

I forgot who told me that but it's fantastic advice. As far as understanding people, the de facto book to read is "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. I'd highly recommend that.

> Because they are creating a world that is just very slightly more considerate than the one before.

Who gives you, or anyone else, the right to "create a world" in which I am a member of and can dictate what I can and cannot say? Why do you get to decide what is "considerate"?

I see this in our next generation and this trend is most troubling indeed.
