I'm currently working on integrating this in my app. I really like the combination of json-schema and json as a protocol. Where no custom UI is defined json-editor jumps in to save the day.
That sounds awful, how long ago did this happen? I had extremely good support both times one of my drives failed, I just followed their tutorial on drive replacement and they plugged me the new drive. After that I let the RAID replicate to the new drive and was done. I'm from Germany so I don't know if the support is a different one for me, but they never asked me to pay for a replace.
I think the truth lies in between. The conspiracy theories are not completely off regarding that about half of the authors of the ADD/ADHD sections of the DSM-IV were paid by pharma companies [1].
That does not change the fact that ADHD is a dysfunction of the brain where the regulation of Dopamin and/or Serotonin does not meet the requirements of the environment.
I think it rather tells us something about the diagnosis which isn't handled very carefully in many cases, especially for children. A proper long term validation of symptoms and evaluation of treatment methods should be a starting point, not a standardized set of questions and a recipe at the end of the session. Behavioral therapy can sometimes be as effective as drug use but it is not even considered most of the time.
Without extended knowledge of the topic the public almost has to think that ADHD is a fraud. It's nothing one can see as a broken leg and the media only reports about Fraud and instant subscriptions to children that might not even have ADHD. Sometimes even MD's claim it's not a real disease because of these reasons. It's not their field and what they hear about it only makes them suspicious. There is so much misinformation about the topic it's just sad.
Didn't it occur to you that posting a link to your (i'm sorry, but pretty arrogant sounding) blog post about how great you are on HN just isn't such a good idea?
What do you suppose the average reader should learn from your post? It is telling the story of an accomplishment you made without generalizing or implicating it could apply to others, it's just about you (and by the way, programming is more than just getting your head around problems, depending on your position it can even be more about architecture).
What you've done is analog to writing a good grade at school and running to your mother so she tells you how great you are. The only difference is that you gave the grade to yourself and now you go to HN and argue with people that disagree about it.
The only thing you accomplish with your behavior is that people think you are a little know-it-all who won't accomplish much and probably terrorize your surroundings with your incompetence and arrogance, regardless if it's true or not.
I'd suggest letting your work speak for itself. Build something great and the people will honor your work and acknowledge your competence (not always on HN but that's another story).
PS: "and will always be" lies not in your hands: diseases, drugs, injury, ... you can loose your cognitive abilities in various ways over time.
As far as I know there currently is no way to accomplish this, but I am working on a solution for it.
Unfortunately the project just started and will take its time
Exactly, and somebody who didn't yet hear the term can easily come to the conclusion that it is an authentification with two "factors" which means basically two things and that would be username and password. In the past there were system with only one factor...
That might be because various parts of germany are flooded at the moment. One of Hetzners datacenters is located in Falkenstein near Regensburg and others might me affected too
"We can not multitask (that’s how our human brain works)" - On the biological/neuronal level our brain works by doing multitasking (paralell processing of events), but our consciousness doesn't as studies suggests.
I think it would be very useful to have a more detailed language specification. For example I am experienced with JavaScript and Node.js programming but I have no clue how to code for browsers properly. Also additional languages like C# and C++ would be nice ( just to name the ones I'm familiar with, but of course there are a lot more ).
If that would improve I'd try out mentoring, I really like the Idea!
It pretty much sums up what I feared for a long time. I think a different approach many programmers (especially on HN as it seems) is a startup as an alternative.
I exactly know your problem. I don't think Jappix makes this possible but I have a solution that works for me.
On my XMPP server (prosody) I modified the message module so it sends all messages to all connected clients and I never miss a message (this solves the "in" part). Additional I installed http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0280.html which unfortunately is not very widespread in clients but I use it with myhub (mentioned above) so I get all messages ( in and out ) for logging.
For the future I'm planning to build a server that will render all these problems obsolte but until then we have to find ways around it.
If you need further ideas how to solve your problem I'd be glad to help :)
