Q: How to check whether two input boxes has entered with values or not in jquery? I have written a code for displaying the values entered in  two input text boxes in jquery. How to check whether the text boxes are filled with values or not ? I have done with change function to display  the values entered from the text input boxes to be displayed inside the html.I want to validate whether the input boxes is being filled with values in jquery. How to check that ? I have only checked when it is inputted with values.
Javscript:

html:
<input type="text" id="start-date" name="start" placeholder="Select Date" data-date-format="DD, MM d" class="input-sm form-control"/>

<input type="text" id="end-date" name="end" placeholder="Select Date" data-date-format="DD, MM d" class="input-sm form-control"/>

A: Use input instead of change
$("input").on('input',function(){

var startDate = $("#start-date").val();
var endDate = $("#end-date").val();

$(".rentdate").html("Rental Date From:"+startDate+" To:"+endDate);

});

HERE is the DEMO

A: You can use if condition to check whether variable is empty or not. Please refer below code for more details.

A: var startDate = $("#start-date").val();
var endDate = $("#end-date").val();

Since You are storing the value of the  text input in a variable ,So you can directly check if the value is empty or not , using comparison like  below
if((startDate =="")||(endDate == ""))
{

alert("Please Fill both text Boxes")
}

A: Try this:

<!DOCTYPE html>

 <meta charset="UTF-8">
 <title>Document</title>

 <input type="text" id="start-date" name="start" placeholder="Select Date" data-date-format="DD, MM d" class="input-sm form-control"/>

<input type="text" id="end-date" name="end" placeholder="Select Date" data-date-format="DD, MM d" class="input-sm form-control"/>

A: The most easiest way is to use regular expressions. And also if you want to immediately show input values then consider event keyup instead change, cause change event firing only after field lost a focus.
So, said this, your JS might looking as:
    $(document).ready(function(){

      $("input").keyup(function(){

       var startDate = $("#start-date").val();
       var endDate = $("#end-date").val();
       var regexp = new new RegExp("\\d\\d, \\d\\d \\d"); // based on data-date-format atribute of input fields

       if(!regexp.test(startDate)){
         alert("Please enter start date.");
       } else if(!regexp.test(endDate)){
         alert("Please enter end date.");
       } else {
         $(".rentdate").html("Rental Date From:"+startDate+" To:"+endDate);
       }
     });
   });

LETTING THE MARKETS RULE
Letting The Markets Determine The Value Of The Dollar
By Joan Veon
April 28 - 2004
When someone refers to the "Group of Seven Finance Ministers," most Americans have no idea who they are or what they do. Since 1975, those who serve in the capacity of secretary of the treasury for the top seven industrialized countries have met to consider financial and economic policies that will eventually pertain to all countries. These finance ministers, along with their respective central bank ministers, just concluded the second of four meetings for the year.
At their first meeting in February, U.S. Treasury Secretary John Snow announced what appears to be a new dollar policy. He began his press briefing with these words, "All countries are interdependent. The market is central to global growth and [t]he value of the dollar is to be determined by the market and not the strength or policy of government." What does this convey to you? For me, it basically was a very historic statement which most of the mainstream press missed.
Let us consider, "All countries are interdependent." In 1962 President Kennedy called for a "Declaration of Interdependence" in which he was signaling a change in our sovereign status by working in concert with other nations, instead of independently. It was Bill Clinton who passed NAFTA and GATT, which became the World Trade Organization, and who also started a regional free trade zone for our hemisphere, the Free Trade Areas of the Americas. In April 2003, President Clinton told university students that their biggest challenge would be to "move from interdependence to integration." Interdependence is defined as "depending on one another" while integration is defined as "making or forming into a whole." What Secretary Snow did was to build on the structural political and economic changes that have occurred since 1962 through the United Nations, the Group of Seven Finance Ministers, the Group of Eight heads of state, and the World Trade Organization.
Secondly, Snow stated that "The market is central to growth." It was Margaret Thatcher who, when elected in 1979, rejected Keynesianism and adopted Friedrich von Hayek's The Road to Serfdom which proposed a "market-based economy" through privatization. Privatization is when government sells off national assets to free up cash. The U.S. passed the Monetary Control Act of 1980 which was responsible for shifting vast sums of money from the banking sector to the stock market. Kevin Phillips writes in Wealth and Democracy, "In 1980, the average daily volume of shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange was 45 million, in 2000, it was 1.041.B." Ronald Reagan ran on a platform of "getting government off our backs" which adopted Thatcher's privatization of government.
The move to the markets as a key power to be reckoned with is documented by Daniel Yergin and Joseph Stanislaw in their book, The Commanding Heights-The Battle Between Government and the Marketplace that is Remaking the Modern World. They tell of Joseph Lenin, who was criticized for allowing private agriculture to resume even if it was to prevent an economic breakdown in 1922 at the Fourth Congress of the Communist International. Lenin countered by explaining that the "state would control the 'commanding heights.'" The authors devoted the remaining 387 pages of their book to support their thesis that the markets of the world have now become the commanding heights.
Lastly, Snow signaled that the "value of the dollar is to be determined by the market and not the strength or policy of government." In light of the above, Snow unveiled a profound change in domestic economic policy for he shifted the value of the dollar from the auspices of government to the markets-the commanding heights.
In trying to get a clear statement from our Treasury Department, Undersecretary for Global Affairs John Taylor told me nothing I did not already know when he referred me to the G7 statement. I then asked Treasury Secretary Snow, "In February you said the markets would determine the value of the dollar and not the policy or strength of government. Is this a new global policy?" Using a lot of "ahh's", he said, "What it basically says is that we endorse the concept of flexibility in exchange rates."
The move to the markets has been called "market based democracy" which is defined as a form of government that does not involve traditional bureaucratic government but uses the markets to encourage productive behavior.
If this is the case, then we can understand the reinventing of Lenin's "commanding heights" to "market based democracy." This sounds as utopian as communism-for if there are no barriers any longer between the nation-states, then that means the strongest and most powerful (the proletariat) can "skim off the top" of the currency, equity, bond, commodity, and metals markets at any time in order to use the market for their own personal gain, leaving you and I (the serfs) with the crumbs.

Over the past couple of years we as dentists have been bombarded by news about the Opioid crisis in the United States.Not a week goes by where the American Dental Association (ADA) does not send out an email, magazine article or newsletter that mentions this important issue in healthcare. Recently, the House of Representatives were set to vote on more than 20 Bills to combat opioid addiction.
A simple explanation of the issue: Over prescription of opioid containing pain medication can lead to abuse. Abuse leads to addiction and worse case death. This can happen by prescribing opioid pain medication in unnecessary situations or over prescribing so that unused opioids sit around our medicine cabinets within easy reach for someone else to abuse.
A common addiction story starts with the use of prescription opioid pain pills whether prescribed to the abuser or not. If abused, these opioids cause a physical response in the human body that cause one to crave more of the drug. Soon the acquisition of more prescription opioid pills becomes too expensive or simply not available. By this time a person 's brain chemistry has been severely altered and they commonly turn to the easiest, cheapest way to get the high they crave. This high is commonly found in the stronger, cheaper and more dangerous street drugs like Heroine. Much of the illegal heroine found on the streets is laced with even more potent narcotics such as Fentanyl, which are often found in the blood streams of those who have overdosed.
Think this is uncommon? Think again, start asking around your family and friends and it won't be long before you find someone who has been closely effected by a situation similar to the one above. Recent Studies found by the ADA have reported that ER visits for Opioid overdoses are on the rise throughout the country, and have increased by as much as 30% in the U.S. (ADA, Morning Huddle 3/8/2018). Often times the population most at risk for abusing opioid medications are our youth. A recent TIME article (6/2 Ducharme) sited an alarming statistic in which it was found that Opioids were Responsible for 1 in 5 Deaths Among Young Adults.
So if not Opioids, then what?
If you have had a toothache or if I have extracted a tooth for you here at Drewyer Dentistry you may have noticed that I have not sent you home with a prescription for an opioid. Instead I have advised taking a Non-steroidal Anti-Inflammatory, such as Ibuprofen (Advil) and if needed to combine with an Extra Strength Tylenol (Acetaminophen). This advisory of pain medication is usually accompanied by my explanation that research shows this is the best cocktail for tooth related pain.
Start with 2 tablets of 200 mg Ibuprofen. If you are not feeling better after 4 hours take 3x 200mg Ibuprofen.
If after 6 hours you are still not feeling better take a combination of 1 Extra Strength Tylenol and 3x 200mg Ibuprofen.
After 6 more hours this recipe can be increased to 1 Extra Strength Tylenol combined with 4x 200 mg Ibuprofen every 6-8 hours.
So, Dr. Austin here asking you to please help me in the effort to protect our community from the dangers of opioids.
throw away in the trash. Check out www.fda.gov/drugs.
- Next time you are given a prescription for pain medication, ask if there are any alternative pain control options besides opioids.
-Ask about side effects or dangers of the prescriptions you are given.
-When necessary to use opioids, consider writing for 3 days or less.
-Register with and utilize Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs (PDMPs).
-Educate patients on the dangers and side effects when prescribing opioids.
-Screen patients for abusive characteristics prior to prescribing.


The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe awarded HDP's Ertugrul Kurkcu with a honorary membership.
The executive office of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) awarded Kurkcu with a honorary membership certificate on the PACE United European Left Group's proposal. The honorary membership certificate was handed to Kurkcu in a ceremony held on Monday.
Ertugrul Kurkcu was elected to the Parliament in 2011 from the BDP, and in later years served as a HDP representative in the PACE social works, health and sustainable development commissions. He has given speeches in the general assembly as a United European Left as a deputy chairperson, as well as preparing reports and submitted written inquiries. Kurkcu was awarded the honorary membership for his contributions to the fundamental principles of the Council of Europe with his efforts.
The honorary membership certificate was handed to Kurkcu by the Swiss President of PACE Liliane Maury-Pasquier.
Maury-Pasquier pointed out Kurkcu's efforts within the PACE and the struggle he has waged.
Kurkcu said his efforts have been to "lend a shoulder" to the struggle for democracy of the peoples of Kurdistan and Turkey. Kurkcu added, "It is fitting to fight against fascism and for democracy," and concluded his speech by saying, "Vive la revolution!" ("Long live the revolution").
His speech received applause from the 60 MPs and diplomats who attended the ceremony.
Former President of PACE Michele Nicoletti from Italy was also awarded an honorary membership in the same ceremony. Honorary membership gives holders the right for lifelong accreditation for the institution. Parliamentarians who hold this title can follow sessions and general efforts in the PACE.

Nikolai Mikhaylovich Kishkin (; 11 December 1864 – 16 March 1930) was a physician and a Russian politician on the Central Committee of the Constitutional Democrat Party (Kadets). During World War I, we was Deputy Chief representative of the All Russia Union of Cities. Following the February Revolution of 1917 he became a commissar of the Provisional Government in Moscow, being appointed Minister of Public Charities in the Kerensky government on 25 September (N.S.: 8 October) that year.

On 25 October, whilst the Bolshevik seizure of power was in progress he was appointed dictator by the cabinet meeting of the Provisional Government. Assuming this role at 4:00 pm, he immediately set about appointing assistants and replacing General Polkovnikov as commander of the Petrograd Military District, with General Jaques Bagratuni. The principal consequence of this was that a number of Polkovnikov colleagues immediately resigned or quietly watched events unfold from their windows.

The March/April 2014 edition of Biblical Archaeology Review includes an article by Lawrence Mykytiuk entitled "Archaeology Confirms Fifty Real People in the Bible." Among the fifty is Xerxes, whom the author identifies with King Ahaseurus of the Book of Esther. The author of this article is not the first to make this claim. In 2010, Mitchell First, for example, made a similar claim and cited earlier Orthodox authorities like Rabbi Isaac HaLevy, Rabbi Shlomo Danziger, Rabbi Avigdor Miller, and Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz who accept the identification.
The question of the historicity of the Book of Esther remains in question. Scholars have long noted that neither the story not the principal characters appear anywhere in the annals of the otherwise prolific Persian historians. Further, by Persian law, the kings could only marry from within a select group of seven noble families so the very idea of an open contest to replace a deposed queen is preposterous. Scholars consider the book to be a kind of satire favored by Jewish writers of the Greek period, much like the apocryphal Book of Ahiqar. Even the Talmud challenges the view that Xerxes and Ahaseurus are one in the same since the Talmud (Megillah 11b) says he reigned even before the Temple was rebuilt.
But the drive to prove the Purim story real borders on the obsessive. It may be ascribed to the thinking that if any story in the Bible is proven fabulous, then the entirety of the Biblical corpus might be held in contempt, thus undermining the authoritativeness of any law.
However, there is a difference between considering the Purim story factual and accepting it as true. The reality that the Jewish people as a minority have historically been a people at risk is undeniable. And the idea that without courageous individuals who have put themselves in personal danger in order to protect the people of which they are a part is irrefutable. Thus the truths of the story are incontrovertible even though the details may be less than factual. Confusing what scholars call "facticity" with the fundamental truths of the story is the root of the problem.
Rather than expending time and energy in trying to verify the details, it is far wiser to absorb the transcendent message.

Sams I Am
Given the title I expected a labyrinthine noir along the lines of "I Wake Up Screaming" or "Each Dawn I Die." Boy busts out of prison, boy teams with greedy, manipulative girl, boy winds up back behind bars — that kind of thing.
Instead, Robi Michael's debut feature "Every Time I Die" proves a smartly produced if overly complicated mashup of murder, madness and supernatural soul-melding. Once it finds its stride, about an hour in, this paranormal romance picks up momentum as an amusing variant on the "Evil Dead" movies. But there's a lot of heavy-handed exposition and turgid talk to plow through to get there.
Do Michael and Gal Katzir, who co-scripted, expect us to giggle or swoon over their whispered, ersatz-"Casablanca" sentiments? We're never sure. Mia to secret lover Sam: "There are things happening with you now, Sam, that are bigger than just you and me." Even Ingrid Bergman fleeing the Gestapo would have a tough time selling that one.
"Every Time I Die" (no connection to punk band of same name) premiered Friday at Cinequest Film & Creativity Festival in San Jose and reprises today and Tuesday at Century 20 Redwood City and Friday at SJSU's Hammer Theater.
What begins as a tale of misplaced guilt over the death of a sibling soon morphs into another lake-side reunion thriller. In attendance: two couples and Sam, the gloomy fifth wheel. Sam, a paramedi c, has never gotten over the death of his sister. He was eight, she six. He was supposed to be watching her but had older brother things on his mind, like poking the moldering carcass of a dead bird.
Not surprisingly, the adult Sam (Drew Fonteiro) lugs some heavy baggage. Which explains why he's naively looking for true love in a hook-up with Mia (Melissa Macedo), wife of a deployed soldier (Tyler Dash White). Upon returning home hubby guesses the truth. How could he not? Besides mood swings and migraines, Sam is prone to blabbermouth blackouts.
Mia's sister Poppy (Macedo's real-life sister Michelle) is married to Jay (Marc Menchaca), a shaggy '60s throwback also prone to psychotic breaks. Bear, as he's called, dispenses pills and aphorisms. "Keep going in circles, partner," he reassures Sam. "Happiness is right around the corner."
Later, at the gang's favorite watering hole Bear opines, "Our minds are a chemical cocktail. As the bartenders of our own sanity we are in charge of mixing it up right."
That's some deep shit, all agree.
Director Michael is nothing if not ambitious; he even pays homage here to Bunuel and Dali (remember the ants crawling out of a hand in "Andalusian Dog"?). He'd do well to lighten up for his sophomore effort, less inner Shyamalan, more outre Raimi, if you will. When Sam stakes out a new home and the exasperated villain finally catches on, yelling, "You fuckin' parasite, how many people have to die for you to stay dead!," this debut feature seems most assured. Wickedly funny, and assured.
Every Time I Die ✮✮ With Drew Fonteiro, Michelle Macedo, Melissa Macedo, Marc Menchaca, Tyler Dash White. Directed by Robi Michael from script by Gal Katzir, Michael. 77 min. Unrated but could be PG-13 (for profanity, some violence)

I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Take it up with the dean of the department or the president of the college. If it's not against the law, it would most definitely be against school policies. That's just asking to get everybody sick.
And what about people who have disabilities that might cause them to be absent? Do they drop a letter grade too? Cuz if so, then your prof is *definitely* breaking the law.
Where do you go to college? Pyongyang?
I have emetophobia and I genuinely would not be able to be in the same room as OP. Even the knowledge that they are going to throw up before they do would be enough to floor me. Even for people without crippling anxiety over people vomiting, how could they possibly concentrate with someone throwing up throughout a class? What an appalling way to treat students.
Throw up on your professor's desk and see if that'll change their mind about their idiotic no-absence policy.
Sounds like your professor needs to go back to teaching middle school.
What kind of a school is this? A forced work camp? This is absurd. Do take it up with someone in the administration, this goes for any student falling ill. It's not like you are asking to be sick.
Trip and spill the contents of your bucket on your professor on your way out of class.
Check the university policy and complain about it to the dean.
We have the same rule with our biology labs in my school. This is because if you miss more than two labs, it's next to impossible to catch up since we work with live animals. However, if our students have any chronic illnesses, disabilities or family emergencies, we always tell them to talk to the office student life and accessibility services. Those offices usually sort out any issues fairly quickly. If you go and explain your problem, I doubt your school won't help you!
Which end is the bucket for?

The "ship of the desert" is a much revered animal in Oman and represents prosperity. A couple of camels can buy you a house in the countryside....a future brides' dowry could include a camel or two....they are therefore very well looked after and travel in style and are fed the very best fruit, nuts and honey – better than the family eat.
I began by getting to know the City Camel, who is patient, reliable, sleek and obedient as it waits in the heat whilst I visited the sights. The stunning Grand Mosque where the sheer beauty and size of the carpet and Swarovski crystal chandelier in the main prayer room took my breath away, the Al Alam Palace of Sultan Qaboos Bin Said, which you cannot go inside but is very pretty from the outside – which would have been great if my camera had not got all steamed up in the heat! The Bait Al Zaibair Museum gives an interesting look into the past and history of the Omani people and then Muttrah Souk to a great place to buy souvenirs including some frankincense crystals and burner. Each time, our trustworthy camel is waiting and welcomes me back with cooling comfort. Of course, I had to fit in the hotel visits too with a lunch further south of the city at the Sifawy hotel which is on a new development soon to welcome the big names like Banyan Tree and Four Seasons, so will be interesting in the coming years. The Intercontinental is the oldest hotel in the city centre and right next to the Opera House, so a great location. The Grand Hyatt is also nearby and works well for families. The Chedi is also in town and right on the beach and was definitely my favourite for the understated luxury and low level, spread out buildings and rooms. The Shangri-La 's Barr Al Jissah Resort comprises of 3 hotels and offers something for everyone; Al Husn for couples and honeymooners, Al Bandar for business and leisure and Al Waha for the families. A really great resort in a private location right on the beach.
The city camel also ventures out along the motorway to visit the forts and villages closer to the mountains. Nakhl fort is huge and the hot springs are worth dipping your feet in – just watch out for the nibbling fish! Rustaq fort is also huge, but has been closed for renovations and the re-opening date is as yet unconfirmed. The temperature hit a punishing 41 degrees – not ideal for sight-seeing! Up in the mountains at Wakan village was much cooler and a great way to see how the local people live – they all own cars, so getting supplies is not a problem.
The Mountain Camel is more dexterous, agile, strong, smart and tough. It negotiates streams, steep gravel unpaved roads and the winding bends of the mountains. After stunning views we reached the 2000m peak only to headed back down to visit the palm tree-filled town of Al Hamra. Back up into the Green mountain and my hotel for the night on the Jebel Akhdar plateau – the Sahab which had a small pool, was clean and comfortable and provides a set 4 course menu for dinner, along with the great setting and views. Before heading to the desert, we visited another village in a sea of date palms, Nizwa which also houses the huge round fort tower and a great souk where silver is (dangerously) good value, as well as lots of other pottery and artisan wares.
The Desert Camel is smooth, controlled, skilful and yet also playful! And after stopping to let some air out of the tyres, the 'ship of the desert' was ready for some dune-bashing.....which was........fantastic fun!! My first and distinct memory is the pure sand colour of the top of the dune against the vivid blue sky. I admit I was holding on for dear life, but it was fantastic to watch the sand fly up the sides of the car and then 'drift' down each dune so elegantly afterwards! Ali said he always does a test to see if the clients enjoy it and then knows how high/fast to go. After visiting a Bedouin camp for coffee and dates, we made our way to the Desert Nights Camp...where all my fears.....were completely unfounded!! My 'tent in the middle of nowhere' was a solid structure with tent-like roof housing a luxury bedroom with separate living room area and a en-suite bathroom. The mini-bar was a treat too, and although contained no alcohol, I later found they do serve it in the bar and restaurant! Sadly, a small sandstorm meant I did not see the sunset and would recommend staying 2 nights here for this reason, as well as take the quad bikes out, go camel trekking. Dinner was a great selection of salads and freshly cooked meat or fish on the BBQ to order. Accompanied with a glass of wine, and this was a real treat. A last drink sitting on my bean-bag on my terrace and I realised this was the highlight of my trip and I could not wait to come back!
The next day we headed towards the coast with a stop at the amazing Wadi Bani Khaled, an oasis of natural pools and rocks. I had wanted to swim, but as more and more groups of men arrived with their cool boxes full of meat (not beer of course!) for BBQs. I did dip my feet in and again had another foot-nibbling experience from the fish! After a visit to the seaside city of Sur and the last remaining Dhow (local boat) factory, we arrived at Ras Al Jinz Scientific Centre, which I knew was fairly simple accommodation, but I was looking forward to the experience. After a visit of the museum and a good dinner with plenty of choice, I gathered with the others for the 9-11pm turtle visit where we saw a mother laying her eggs (around 100 at a time!), but she took longer than expected to cover them and return to the sea. Back for 5 hours sleep, then up again at 4am, the morning shift is worth getting up for as it gets light quite quickly and you can see more and also take photographs (without flash as it can blind the turtles). We again saw a mother laying her eggs, some baby turtles heading for the water and also a mother returning to the water, which was quite emotional. It is definitely worth the experience and great for families as the children loved the experience.
Nearing the end of my trip, it was time to head back to Muscat with a stop to visit the beaches along the coast, including the beautiful sandy Fins beach, where the Beach Camel showed its patience, dislike of sand in every bolthole and limits of capability of how close to the sea it wants to go, just resting in the heat and hoping not to get stuck! The coastline with the mountain backdrop is stunning and as yet still quite undeveloped, although this may change in the coming years as the tourism increases. Ali recommended stopping at a shop called Bateel, which sells a huge variety of dates in nice packaging, so great for presents! My last night was at Al Bustan Palace, a huge and very grand building where the top floor is reserved for any visiting dignitaries, royalty, prime ministers etc and is the reason the hotel was first built. The lagoon-access rooms are great as you can step straight from your terrace into the lagoon pool in front of the hotel. I enjoyed a last fantastic meal at a local Omani restaurant, Kargeen, with Arun from Zahara Tours who had organised this amazing trip for me.
I extended my trip by 2 nights to visit the Musandam region of Oman which is a separate peninsula surrounded by the UAE and had to fly to Dubai and then drive for 2 hours over the border into Oman again, which was a bit strange, but very worth it! The new wing for the paraglide had made it through customs, so I was able to enjoy this amazing experience and welcome to the Six Senses Zighy Bay Resort! It was everything I expected – top luxury, large bedroom, huge bathroom with sunken bath, separate rain shower and outdoor shower, a large living room area as well as an outdoor terrace, pool, covered sitting area and a little 'room' with 'rattan' sides – really cosy and sweet. There is also a door for beach access. The food was fantastic with the largest buffet choice for breakfast I have ever seen and the spa was of course the usual amazing experience that comes with the Six Senses brand.
Overall, this has to be one of my best trips to date, not only because I conquered many fears in coming way out of my usual comfort zone, but also because I learnt so much and realised how much more you can get from an experiential holiday than just a beach holiday; you see and experience so much in a foreign land and culture that takes you completely out of your own world and opens your mind to new experiences. Every day was an adventure and I loved it! Oman is really growing as a tourist destination and has so much to offer. With the new airport due to be finished at the end of 2014/2015 and the big names looking for the best spots to put their hotels, I am sure everyone will want to come and visit this amazing country with its interesting culture, kind people and diverse landscape.
If you fancy dipping into Middle Eastern culture and dipping your toes into Wadi Bani Khaled like Ali, take a look at our sample itineraries to amazing Oman and let us make a luxury tailor-made holiday for you.

Good Idealistic Books are Rare
Hopefully_Anonymous12y
I recommend being wary of a point that needs to exist as part of a dialectical pair. What's orthogonal to cynicism vs. idealism. What's completely outside the set? What encompasses both? What has elements of both? What subversive idea or analytical framework is muted by discussing cynicism vs. idealism instead? I think these type questions are a good starting point when a dialectic is promoted, in general.
Cynical About Cynicism
Although I think you're overstating and misapplying your case, Eliezer (like Robin implies, a "cynical" critique of both cynicism and idealism seems to me to yield more fruit than an idealist critique of both), I agree with Richard that cynicism is a poorer epistemological framework than skepticism.
I think it's also worth noting that it's a common play for status to admonish people not to be so cynical, I think because (1) the crowd seems to award higher status to people who perform optimism as a general rule, and (2) there's an element of power alignment, and (if one is powerful) power maintenance to convincing less powerful people not to be cynical about the reasons for power variance in a social group.
BHTV: Yudkowsky / Wilkinson
I encourage you to do one with Koch on consciousness, free will, and zombies. Be agressive with him like you were with that AI researcher with the dreads (not deferential like you were with Aubrey de Gray. I think it'll be very useful.
Investing for the Long Slump
"Here's an odd bias I notice among the AI and singularity crowd: a lot of us seem to only plan for science-fictional emergencies, and not for mundane ones like economic collapse. Why is that?"
One hypothesis: because the value in the planning (and this may be rational, if nontransparent) is primarily for entertainment purposes.
BHTV: de Grey and Yudkowsky
Very good job, Eliezer. I recommend you do a BHTV tour of all the big blogging names in cryonics, life extension, and existential risk minimization. Kurzweil, Bostrom, and Hanson too, of course. They're probably asking you to do this already.
Is That Your True Rejection?
"However, if any professor out there wants to let me come in and just do a PhD in analytic philosophy - just write the thesis and defend it - then I have, for my own use, worked out a general and mathematically elegant theory of Newcomblike decision problems. I think it would make a fine PhD thesis, and it is ready to be written - if anyone has the power to let me do things the old-fashioned way."
I think this is a good idea for you. But don't be surprised if finding the right one takes more work than an occasional bleg. And I do recommend getting it at Harvard or the equivalent. And if I'm not mistaken, you may still have to do a bachelors and masters?
Disappointment in the Future
His predictions were much better than I expected. Your headline is misleading given this data point.
Hanging Out My Speaker's Shingle
wow there's some haters in this thread. You can tell when Caledonian feels compelled to defend Eliezer. Peter? Apt name.
Crisis of Faith
Some interesting, useful stuff in this post. Minus the status-cocaine of declaring that you're smarter than Robert Aumann about his performed religious beliefs and the mechanics of his internal mental state. In that area, I think Michael Vassar's model for how nerds interpret the behavior of others is your God. There's probably some 10 year olds that can see through it (look everybody, the emperor has no conception that people can believe one thing and perform another). Unless this is a performance on your part too, and there's shimshammery all the way down!
Beyond the Reach of God
There's a corallary mystery category which most of you fall into: why are so few smart people fighting, even anonymously, against policy grounded in repugnancy bias that'll likely reduce their persistence odds? Where's the fight against a global ban on reproductive human cloning? Where's the fight to increase legal organ markets? Where's the defense of China's (and other illiberal nations)rights to use prisoners (including political prisoners) for medical experimentation? Until you square aware your own repugnancy bias based inaction, criticisms of that of the rest of population on topics like cryonics reads as incoherent to me as debating angels dancing on the heads of pins. My blog shouldn't be so anomolous in seeking to overcome repugnancy bias to maximize persistence odds. Where are the other anonymous advocates? Our reality is the Titanic -who want to go down with the ship for the sake of a genetic aesthetic -because your repugnancy bias memes are likely to only persist in the form of future generations if you choose to value it over your personal persistence odds.

Title: "Caught in the web": Difficulties in gang desistance.
Authors: Tan, Carolina.
Tan, Seok Kian.

Keywords: DRNTU::Social sciences::Psychology::Deviant psychology
Abstract: The presence of gangs poses a significant social problem due to their prevalence and the disproportionate contribution of gang members in crime and delinquency. Past research on gang desistance substantially covers the motivation for leaving gangs but limited research has been done to account for gang members who intend to desist from the gang and yet, were restricted. Hence, this review serves to provide an understanding of the potential barriers experienced by desisting gang members that may hinder the process of gang desistance. Six barriers were highlighted – (1) exit rituals, (2) gang embeddedness and lingering ties, (3) individual differences, (4) labeling, (5) employment, and (6) marriage. With the exception of exit rituals, research findings suggest that all barriers have a significant effect in hindering the process of gang desistance. Furthermore, the role played by human agency in influencing the process of gang desistance was also examined. A hypothetical case was presented to illustrate the interactive effect of human agency and the potential barriers in determining the outcome of gang desistance. In conclusion, it was found that interactions between the barriers and varying degree of human agency displayed determines whether the gang member experience true or intermittent desistance from gang.

5-panel and bucket hats both have two common characteristics: They only fit well on certain head shapes, and if they do fit well, they look really good. 5-panel hats are named because they indeed are comprised of 5 panels instead of the standard baseball 6 panels. They are constructed laterally instead of radially and fit more oval heads than round heads. They come in much bolder designs and materials than traditional baseball hats and they are always strapbacks, sometimes even with leather. Bucket hats are similar in that they have much bolder designs as well, but they work better for rounder heads. Bucket hats have been around before, but have enjoyed a surge in popularity as of late. Bucket hats are definitely a more adventurous look, so I would be hesitant on buying one until you know for sure that it looks fly on you. HUF and 10 Deep both have sizable collections of 5-panels and bucket hats among their standard hats, so check out those streetwear brands!
For tops, baseball shirts and raglans are welcome variations of the typical, boring T-shirts. Baseball-style apparel is becoming very popular with their unique look that offers a distinct departure from traditional tops. Baseball jerseys like this one from Stussy and this one from Undefeated look like T-shirts, but they have unique detailing on the front and the back along with the buttons down the middle that make it stylish. Baseball raglans are another twist on the regular shirt, adding different shoulder stitching and three-quarter sleeves that go halfway down the forearm. Baseball raglans like this one from Black Scale or this floral one from Hype have sleeves that extend in one piece all the way up to the collar. Three-quarter sleeves like the ones on raglans stand out surprisingly well, and are an interesting alteration to just short or long sleeves.
If you're anything like me, you are very particular about the fit of your pants. Many pants just do not get the fit right with the thighs AND the calves to create a uniformly good fit throughout the leg. However, joggers fit much much better because of the cuffs at the bottom of each leg. This way, the bottoms of the pants don't flare out or are at an uncomfortable length because the cuff holds the pants more or less in place. Even better, joggers come in sweatpants-like material like these to dress down, and they come in chino material like these to dress up. The main reason I'm drawn to joggers are the way that they slim you down. Because they are cuffed at the bottom, they are naturally slim-fit, not too skinny and not too straight. Joggers can complement any outfit, and I really think they will continue to grow in popularity.
My favorite streetwear brands are Stussy and Obey, and you can find cheap streetwear on bargain sites such as jackthreads.com and karmaloop.com.

The only birthday gift he'd want is an Oscar. November 11 is Leonardo DiCaprio's 40th birthday … which is, like, 27 in celebrity years since they age slower than us.
