I guess I'm feeling weird about my conflicted, cautious initial reaction to Angelina Jolie's op-ed. But in the end, if anyone who has a strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer is now motivated to get more in-depth testing or even if you don't have a family history and now decide to get regular screening, that's a good thing.

It has certainly stimulated a lot of good discussion.
- Spidra Webster
While I think it's a travesty that Myriad was allowed to literally patent the genes and keep the price for testing high for decades, I also don't think everyone should get tested. At least, it shouldn't be an automatic decision. The pros and cons should be discussed with a healthcare professional. And there are most definitely cons. The probability of inconclusive testing and the resultant anxiety from that uncertainty are just a few.
- Victor Ganata
I started thinking of this as a board question: Consider two women, Ann and Beatrice, in their late 30s. Both women have mothers who died from metastatic breast cancer at an early age, both have young children, and both discover they have an allele of BRCA1 that is correlated with a much increased risk for developing breast cancer, although Ann's mutation is estimated to have a lifetime risk of 56% by age 70 and Beatrice's is estimated to have a lifetime risk of 87% by age 70….
- Victor Ganata
…Ann decides to get prophylactic bilateral mastectomies. Beatrice opts for close surveillance alternating mammograms and breast MRIs every six months. Which woman made the right decision?
- Victor Ganata
Answer: A. both women made the right decision after considering their own personal circumstances and discussing their options with qualified professionals, including a genetic counselor. And it would still be the right decision even if their lifetime risk were identical B. unless you are Ann, Beatrice, or the primary care physician, breast surgeon, oncologist, or genetic counselor who is caring for either of these women, who the hell cares what you or I think?

I liked this article... Made me think a little differently about it. http://www.drmcdougall.com/misc...

I think the one of the worst possible outcomes would be if insurance companies decided to pay only for prophylactic bilateral mastectomies but not for lifetime close surveillance. Or vice-versa.

Cristo, it's so people aren't wearing 2-3 devices to cheat their friends. I know you like being at the top of the leaderboards, but that's a lame way to do it. More intelligently they would dedupe to one device's data stream if multiple were being used over the same period, and allowing gaps to be filled.
- Jimminy IS Everybody
Yeah, you figured me out. My ego is completely tied up in Fitbit steps. Seriously, I'm sure there are timestamps associated with a set of steps, so you would just take the packet with the most steps and discard the other one. This just makes it more likely I'll return the Flex after I've tried it for a few days. Of course, this means I have to re-setup the One now and wait for the annoying beginner mode to stop (about a week of using it).

To ban or not to ban: should kids be allowed in fine-dining restaurants? - http://www.foxnews.com/leisure...
Heather, Lisa | #TeamMonique, Iván Abrego and 7 other people liked this
"So in July 2011, Vuick banned anyone under six, citing it as the best decision he’s made. “I’ve gotten an overwhelming response from people all over the world, and it’s a thousand to one in favor of what we’ve done. Every day a customer seeks me out to thank me for the policy, or someone writes to tell me they wish a restaurant near them would institute this policy. Business is up and it’s even helped me get some staff I wouldn’t have otherwise attracted.” Some restaurateurs have a different strategy, like Allen Routt, chef and co-owner of The Painted Lady in Newberg, Ore., where children are not banned, but guests are encouraged to leave children under seven at home due to the length of the meal (around three hours) and the mature menu (a multi-course tasting menu). “My restaurant isn’t for some adults, and it’s not for some children,” admits Routt. “But banning children seems like a knee jerk reaction. We are raising the next generation and if we can expose children to manners and...

It's only relatively recently that American restaurants who banned women dropped that practice.

I think it's fine for fine-dining restaurants to ban kids, especially under a certain age. I know not all kids misbehave or are loud (my cousin was always super quiet and polite), but a long wait for food and a setting that isn't intended for kids can test their patience.

Yahoo reportedly eyeing Tumblr for possible $1 billion acquisition | The Verge - http://www.theverge.com/2013...
Iván Abrego, SophiaAnne88, imabonehead and 2 other people liked this
"Is Yahoo trying to acquire Tumblr? Earlier today, All Things D reported that the two companies were in "serious" talks about some kind of deal, and now Adweek is saying that Yahoo is looking to do a straight-up acquisition. The deal could reach as high as $1 billion, say Adweek’s sources, putting it in the same league as Facebook’s acquisition of Instagram last year. Yahoo has been working to capture younger users — the same 18- to 24-year-olds that make up Tumblr’s core user base. Yahoo CFO Ken Goldman recently noted that one of the company’s challenges has been its aging demographic, writes All Things D. Since taking control of Yahoo, CEO Marissa Mayer has pursued a string of acquisitions, including Summly, Astrid, Jybe, and others. In addition to the failed Dailymotion acquisition, the company has also been rumored to be looking at Hulu, although Mayer has previously said that the company is shopping for smaller targets valued in the $100 million range."

Given their track record with Flickr, Upcoming and other purchases, maybe they better concentrate on cleaning up their backyard first.
- Spidra Webster
why, when they can cover everyone else's yards with carcasses and dog poop too?
- Joe "Bad Guts" Silence
That's a little unfair, in my opinion. The company has had no direction since Yang took over back in 2007, until Marissa Mayer got there. Thompson may have had a chance, but he didn't have a CS degree. Through the changes they've made in the last year and the purchases they've made or attempted to make, they're trying to become a powerhouse media company.
- Jimminy IS Everybody
I guess it kind of depends on how the merger is done. Would Tumblr be allowed to thrive as its own thing, but with some integration into Yahoo, like Flickr (well, hopefully doing better than Flickr)? Or would Tumblr be strip-mined to build stuff elsewhere at Yahoo, more like Facebook's acquisition of Friendfeed? Also, will Tumblr make Yahoo seem cool, or will Yahoo make Tumblr seem stodgy? I don't think the answers are clear-cut.
- John (bird whisperer)
Yahoo could turn it into something like Google+! Um, no. If true, I may move my tumblr to Wordpress.
- Yo. Shark Dog.
John, with such a large size, it would be most likely to go with the Flickr route. You don't can big companies, especially at $1B cost; at that point you're not buying the technology or staff. The better FB parallel would be Instragram.

Newegg nukes "corporate troll" Alcatel in third patent appeal win this year | Ars Technica - http://arstechnica.com/tech-po...

"In 2011, Alcatel-Lucent had American e-commerce on the ropes. The French telecom had sued eight big retailers and Intuit saying that their e-commerce operations infringed Alcatel patents; one by one they were folding. Kmart, QVC, Lands' End, and Intuit paid up at various stages of the litigation. Just before trial began Zappos, Sears, and Amazon also settled. That left two companies holding the bag: Overstock.com and Newegg, a company whose top lawyer had vowed not to ever settle with patent trolls. "
- Andrew C (✓)
from Bookmarklet
"Then things started going badly for the plaintiff. Very badly. Instead of convincing the East Texas jury to hand Alcatel the tens of millions it was asking for--$12 million from Newegg alone--the company got a verdict of non-infringement. And as for the one patent Alcatel had argued throughout trial was so key to modern e-commerce--US Patent No. 5,649,131--the jury invalidated its claims."
- Andrew C (✓)
"Federal Circuit judges typically take months, and occasionally years, to review the patent appeals that come before them. Briefs in this case were submitted last year and oral arguments were held May 10. The three-judge panel upheld Newegg's win without comment--in just three days."

I think it would be pretty hard to win a fight against a guy with a time machine, let alone a guy with a time machine *and* a sonic screwdriver. How are you going to threaten a guy with a Death Star when he can just go back in time and make sure your Death Star isn't even built?

And now I just realized why R2D2 can open *any* door and hack into *any* computer. Some mad scientist has apparently fused together a Dalek with a Time Lord.

The original title of the article (at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news..., since changed) was "The Force called to Star Wars clash".

Josiah said something funny earlier but it doesn't translate well into a written post, so I might have to make a video.

It feels weird to not have to worry about getting a paper out next week. I can't believe that it's over.

"At Ford and elsewhere, a common response to the brutal intensification of work was absenteeism and high quit rates: in 1913, Ford's daily absentee rate was 10 percent, while annual turnover exceeded 350 percent. To reduce turnover, which was costly to the company, Ford doubled the daily wages of his most valued employees, to five dollars a day. This strategy was successful in stabilizing the labor force and reducing operating costs"
