You can't be serious. Are you advocating hydrocodone here which has one of the highest potential for debilitating addiction, so much so actually that it is banned in many countries and no longer available for medical use?
I explicitly stated that I was not advocating drug use. What I am advocating, if you would actually bother read my comments, was that the farmers' dose and dose frequency are pushing the therapeutic window (i.e. it nears toxicity). Regularly taking a therapeutic-level dose of hydrocodone would not push that window.
If you think repeatedly taking extremely high doses of Tramadol is somehow safer than small doses of hydrocodone, then you're unbelievably ignorant.
As a side note, hydrocodone is one of the least potent mu-opioid antagonists, but it is more potent than Tramadol. That is the only reason I mentioned it by name.
And I take no stock in governmental drug laws with regard to pharmacology, so your mention of it being removed from medical use in a handful of countries means nothing to me.
This is not true - you can have infinite things without them containing evertthing. So no, this is not obvious. Indeed, pi may not be normal, so there may be things not contained in it.
The horizontal spacing of Consolas and Source Code Pro are almost identical. The vertical spacing of SCP is much greater, but you're more likely to be able to adjust that in your editor anyway.
Thanks for summarizing the 7 principles here. I am familiar with the book as well. However, I am not sure if I should envy or pity the people who feel their lives so incredibly enriched by them, by the majority of accounts almost bordering on the religious. For myself, they are too obvious, shallow and trivial to really have that positive effect that apparently so many are experiencing.
The principles are obvious, and Covey states this in his appendix of the Kindle edition. He claims credit only for packaging them in an accessible way.
7 Habits was effective for me because I answered the questions it posed throughout the text. The book presented a self-evident principle, such as "Put First Things First", then forced me to consider a dozen ways I could implement it. Then, all the positive effects those implementations would bring. I would try to put one of these ideas into practice each day I read. Repeat for 6 more principles.
I put in a good deal of effort and got out a framework that slowly increased my output at work, my understanding at home, and my patience under stress.
No road to Damascus here, just compounding interest over the months since I finished the book. I recommend it based on that.
When I was 25 or so, I realized that just because someone told me to do something in a loud, assertive voice, didn't mean I had to do it. I didn't even have to explain myself! I could just not do as I was told.
By the time most people get to 25, this is mind-blowingly obvious. Yet for me it was profound...
Most "profound truths" are fairly simple. But it's living those truths in your daily life that make them powerful. It's also about what you first encounter. I read 7 Habits when I was 13. I suspect if I had read it when I was 23, I would have had a different opinion of the book's insightfulness.
The slowness has nothing to do with connection speed! I'm on blazingly fast Optusnet Cable Internet in Australia, and it's still incredibly slow on my (fairly recent) Asus laptop.
Oh yeah, I do see that. But if you just click "Men" (or "Women") then you don't get any of that... which is what I would've done had I been looking for actual shoes.
No problem at all. It would only cost you, well, a ridiculous amount of money, most probably several orders of magnitude more than what you are willing/able to pay.
