The python devs could write a style guide that says pulling out your toenails with pliers is now “the pythonic way” and half the user base would do it. This is only a slight parody of the arguments against putting a SWITCH statement in the language. Edited March 4, 2019 by FleshJeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAL59 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I don't like how people use TedX talks to prove any point they have. Most Ted Talks, which are at least vetted (TEDx is independently organized and surprisingly easy to get into), let alone TedX talks, are pretentious, oversimplified, overbearing, and often contradict each other, so using them as proof of something is not good.

Some of them are good, but I agree that the TED name lends them more credibility than they really have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordFerret Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Huh??? I have weather here every day too. I must be missing something. I have to say; Polar vortexes, tornadoes, hail, rain, floods, hurricanes, snow, wind, gales, cold, warm, hot and humid ... we get it all here, and there isn't anything I've seen yet in all my years that isn't normal cyclic stuff. Sorry to disappoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yes, then Move to the Tropics™ ! Where there's only two weather : Really sunny, or really raining !* * Please consider your choice wisely. Included in the reported side effects of the Tropics are excessive ground movements, searing molten rock, and a mass of water crashing into you.

klesh Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I'd like to complain about my pinched nerve. I've had complete numbness and pins and needles in my entire right arm for going on 6 months now. I've had xrays, MRI's, taken steroids and 8 weeks of physical therapy. No one knows where the pinched nerve is and nothing has made any improvement; in fact the physical therapy made it worse. I was referred to get an EMG test, and hopefully that helps to determine where the problem is... except its going to be 2 months before they can see me for a sit down talk, and then schedule the actual test some month(s) later. So that'll be around 9 months of this. There was no point at which this pinched nerve "happened", I just woke up one day with it and it never went away. It gets to the point where I want to cut my entire arm off, the ever present throbbing, pain, numbness etc is unbearable at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordFerret Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 @klesh Google 'nerve pathway chart' and check out the area of your issue; If it is a pinched nerve, that will define 'where from'. Of all the things you've mentioned, I don't see Chiropractor or Osteopath (who does manipulation) in that list. I would make that move first before an EMG.

I'm going to skip out on complaining about my pinched nerve and two weeks of constant pain (while still complaining about it). I just want to get more than two consecutive hours of sleep.

Last night I slept for seven hours - uninterrupted until 4:15 a.m. But in all fairness, it was the first time I had slept in 39 hours.Gotta love insomnia! Oh, and that's not my complaint! My complaint or gripe today is the cold weather - yes, we are finally above 32° F (0° C) mark but not by much. I'm sitting in my townhouse and feeling a bit of a cold air draft from the windows - the OLD windows they were going to replace last summer. I'm tired of the complex not doing the maintenance they've promised at the lease renewal meeting! And what really gets me mad? I cannot seem to get warm sitting in my OWN living room...

I have the same feeling toward doctors, getting you addicted to something to mask the pain instead of actually fixing it. I only want back once, about a year later, for a different issue. I know people can get addicted to going to the chiro, but how do you think the number of people who do compares to the number of people addicted to pain killer pills? For any kind of physical nerve/joint pain, I would always consider a chiro before going to the doc.
