Wow, the amount of protein in this diet is really low. And all those carbs may not be for everyone. This diet may be cheap, but not healthy.

If you are the type of person who puts on weight easily (like me), than I would suggest doing 50% to 60%+ of your calories from protein and 20% or less from carbs. The easiest source of protein are white eggs (in a carton), chicken (pre-cooked), beans (get low sodium), and protein shakes (whey during the day and casein at night). All these foods can be prepared with just the microwave.

Eating carbs is the easiest way to gain extra pounds. Removing carbs also removes any food coma you may experience after eating a meal, allowing you to be more productive.

I lost like 30 lbs without trying that hard by eliminating carbs and focusing on protein. The degree to which I'm in shape one day is correlated to how much carbs I have avoided in the previous few days.

And of course, take vitamin supplements. Throwing in some veggies for the fiber, or take fiber supplements.
I have an example from the Java IDE IntelliJ Idea from same company (PyCharm uses the same framework):

This metric isn't really useful unless you can account for the different buying power of the dollar in a country like India vs. US.

I've written an article about this particular situation:

However, it's possible to compile and use JSC as an interpreter, which is Even slower.

They won't let you use the private dynamic compiler, though, most probably for se urity reasons.
I started using MacOS in around 2009 and I don't see any problems between the two that aren't simply "Okay this is just different, but not necessarily wrong". The only big problem I have is that MacOS doesn't have a proper native maximise option which doesn't make the window fullscreen.

With regards to the recommendations in the article, Windows actually shifted to a start menu that was full screen and was hated by the majority of Windows users (including me). Atleast they give you the option now.

Either way, I think this is a good genuine article. Its rare that I see people describing what its like to use Windows after being such MacOS enthusiasts, rather than the other way.
Ah, I see.

I will note that people make arguments via questions pretty often in normal conversation, so that's not necessarily an accusation of significant bad faith. It could be more of a complaint about rhetorical technique.

But let's treat it as an accusation of bad faith. In that case, we have a deeper issue. Assuming that it's a real question asked in good faith is actually the weakest plausible interpretation, because the link makes it a self-disproving theory. Honestly the tongue-in-cheek interpretation is probably the strongest one.

There's no way to treat it as a strong argument and as a real question asked in good faith.

Also it can be okay to downvote misinformation even when the commenter didn't do anything wrong.
> The Fed is stabilizing the price of the USD because of the coronavirus pandemic. If it were not printing money, then there would likely be a deflationary spiral that would cause a depression.

And by doing that, we have the Cantillon Effect [0].

> The Cantillon Effect refers to the change in relative prices resulting from a change in money supply. The change in relative prices occurs because the change in money supply has a specific injection point and therefore a specific flow path through the economy. *The first recipient of the new supply of money is in the convenient position of being able to spend extra dollars before prices have increased. But whoever is last in line receives his share of new dollars after prices have increased*. This is why when the Treasury’s deficit is monetized, inflation is referred to as a non-legislated tax. In these cases, the government has seized purchasing power (rather than physical bills) from its citizens without congressional approval.

Well, I'm not going to side with the people who gunned down a Reuters journalist from their Apache and the military who tried to cover for them over the person who outed their conduct. I guess you can choose which way your patriotism swings, but it seems like a fairly obvious conclusion to me.
Of course you're entitled to your point of view, but dismissing any other perspective on the matter as "crazy" is, well, itself a little bit crazy ;)

Putting aside the contract law side of this, philosophically what you're saying doesn't make sense to me. If Google were to direct some of its employees tomorrow to restrict the flow of information relating to a hot-button political issue, right in the middle of an election cycle, would it be crazy for some of the employees to attempt to "subvert" the company to prevent that from happening?
Honest feedback. In the link you start off directly by describing it as "a Python binding to Tesseract API". It would help if you can briefly explain in the first few lines what Tesseract API is and what it is useful for. It would help someone new to this area not only appreciate what your project is but also what the background to your project is.

Apart from that, great job making something new and then publishing it on PyPI to share with the community.
Would be nice if the standard firmware update mechanism on Linux (fwupd/LVFS) could be used for HPE products.

That's how you get people to use your stuff when they would otherwise dig in their heels because "what I have is fine", "muh Unix philosophy", etc. It worked for systemd.

What do you estimate Free Speech is worth?
You're going to repeat this same issue as long as you have the "but they always get away with it, why cant I" mentality. Two faults in judgement don't make a good decision, no matter how many take part in it.

Bless your heart and good day.
Interesting that the hack occurred in 2016, and in the same year he left MixRank.
The question is what next? Our team had already started migration from vuex to solely using Apollo. Apollo then changed their own standards like depreciating local resolvers. Vue 3 release seemed to change regularly from will it or won't it support ie11 and various other additional packages. It is fairly easy to build React-in-Vue code to do a similar migration but the "experts" in Vue often just live in the short term without really committing too a level of support that an enterprise team needs with 20-30 developers. With React I'm sure any major changes will be a phased thing so I can continue to upgrade through the major releases for new features while updating code to new patterns. There is usually codemods to automate any changes because the coding patterns are highly developed to be testable and consistent to change. Similar support exists around the community of packages like Redux. Vue is stretched across multiple projects like state management, build tooling and DX while genuinely being behind the curve in best practices like testing and static code analysis. A Vue 2 to 3 migration is really a complete overhaul of every component to allow you to upgrade to v3. That is a huge liability of an inexperienced team who I expect to make similar mistakes with their community.
I'm not sure that real names would help much. Look at LinkedIn. Lots of personal details in each person's profile, yet it is still devolving into Facebook level low quality content.
you remember them better because they had a longer history as a stable legacy OS than the modern versions.

Does this tell us anything about the state of modern commercial OS development? Users like stability and predictability in their software. Sure, they like new whizz-bang as well, but that excitement lasts for a week after you buy a new machine, and then they want stability every day for years.

That conflicts with commercial pressures to sell Shiny New Things every few months. Flat icons? Let's make them skeuomorphic. Skeuomorphic icons? Let's make them flat! Tabs are stupid, let's make them all windows. Windows are stupid, let's make them all tabs! Multitasking is great, let's have more dashboards. Single-tasking is great, let's have more fullscreen! And so on and so forth, rinse and repeat.

I think hardware waves used to hide most of this game, since every year new hardware was so much more powerful than before, you could justify this constant churning as "adding more stuff". This has not really been true on the desktop for almost a decade now, so the long-term patterns emerge and they are quite ugly to see.
Not so many will make it all the way through, with the white text so hard to see.
You basically just described part of what we call Science.
The thing that's "spooky" about quantum mechanics is that it is NOT just infinitesimal forces causing precision to be impossible. That's more chaos than quantum.

Here's a bit from my own research. I start with a neutron whose spin is pointed up. I then use magnets to bend the neutron's trajectory depending on whether it's spinning to the left or the right. Since the spinning in the up state is a linear combination of spinning in the left or right states, it just so happens that I don't know whether the neutron bends to the left or the right.

For most of the neutrons, that's all I do. Another set of magnets pulls the beams back together. They get to the end of the instrument and I measure whether they're spinning up. Since I haven't done anything besides split the beam, they're all still spinning up.

However, for a small fraction of the neutrons, I measure which way they bent. I know know whether it is spinning left or spinning right. Let's say it's spinning left. Well, just as spinning up is a linear combination of spinning left and right, spinning left is a linear combination of spinning up and down. Since I know that the beam is spinning left, I no longer know whether it's spinning up or down. When I measure this neutron at the end of the instrument, it only has a fifty percent chance of pointing up.

This isn't a couple of photons hitting a particle and changing the velocity slightly. I've gone from all of my neutrons pointing up to only half of them pointing up.

You might immediately assume that the problem is that I did something to the neutron when I measured whether it was pointing left or right. The "spooky" thing about this is that I didn't do a single thing to that neutron to measure which way it was spinning. The way I perform the measurement is that, after I split the neutron beam, I put a wall in one of the beams. The other path, however, is just the same as it was before. I haven't touched any of these neutrons. Each of these neutrons goes through the exact same fields and paths as they did in the experiment where all the neutrons were pointed up, except no half of them are pointed down.

Quantum mechanics doesn't just say that you have to touch something to measure it and that will effect the outcome. It says that performing a measurement will effect the outcome, even if you don't touch it. That's where some people get spooked.

----
To preemptively answer a couple of questions:
1) No, you can't use magnets to bend neutron beams based on the Lorentz force. However, the neutron does have a magnetic moment which produces a potential with a magnetic field. This leads to an index of refraction change that causes a slight angular splitting of the neutron beam. Nothing ever gets separated by more than a micron.

2) No, I don't really put in a wall to measure just the left spinning neutrons. There's a solid material whose density fluctuations over the micro length scale serve as my effective wall. Thus, I don't actually get half the neutrons flipping at the end of the experiment, but rather a fraction proportional to how much information I get about the left right spin from my single wall.
In terms of consumer experience, XCodes performance is hardly relevant. Use iTunes as an example. That god awful abomination gives me rage like few other programs manage.
What were the shares outstanding when he took over compared to now, are they the same?
I had added this yesterday but forgot to add the Show HN :(. Adding it here again. Apologies for the repost.
Sorry, it gets confusing since APM:Copter autopilot (I guess that's what they are calling it now) can run on PX4 hardware running NuttX too. So they are using the full PX4 flight stack as well?
Typography also makes a big difference, hence PDFs that retain print layout can provide more visual context than reflowed text in epub/mobi.
I personally do not believe in "all roads lead to rome" kind of spirituality, but I appreciate your candor and insight.

I will up vote your comment as well. Thanks for participating in the conversation!
Excellent! I have used PhantomJS for web scraping but as that is always a gray area of legality. I'd love to hear any other major uses you've seen it used for. I always love it when I find that a tool I'm using can be used for other purposes.
Let's hope they are using a good multi-signature scheme.
It's the difference between a code monkey and an engineer.
Actually I appreciate the license questions, because it makes it easier to know how to re-write the docs to clarify.

One license allows you to develop one product. If you stop work on one thing you can re-use the license on something else, though --- it would be silly to ask at what point a change of focus becomes a different product.

This seemed the sanest way to do it. I think per-site, per-user etc licenses are really stupid. The license then impinges on your technical decisions.
Interesting idea. Then if someone didn't understand that they had to click the words, you could describe this Relevant Templating From Archives, or "RTFA" for short.
I attended private Catholic schools in NYC starting in 1960. I remember being told early and often by the nuns, brothers and priests who taught that "you are going to live 80 years, we will be teaching you for a small fraction of that time and it's impossible for us to teach you everything you are going to need to know. What we can teach you is how to learn on your own." And they did.
I want a one time license for excel that works with windows 8.1 and does not install one drive spyware. I have 100 bucks. I am using libre office, calc in the meantime.
Well, yes. The last Microsoft Office product I bought was Word 97. Since then, OpenOffice -> LibreOffice.
Yes.

Our intelligence agency (AIVD) allegedly facilitated the planting of stuxnet (they had a guy in there or something)

So it'd be reasonable to say that "we're not uncooperative"
It is quite ironic that ARPANET was designed for survivability.
Actually it will work with any distribution of keys, provided that you know what that distribution is.
I entirely agree with you re: "but you might as well give up". If I had to build a cross platform desktop app, I would use C++ and Qt, which seems like the most sane option.

Android/Mobile is certainly a separate case.
Why would they merge their improvements upstream. That would only lead to them losing their (hypothetical) competitive advantage. Handset manufacturers don't care about the android platform they care about their own implementation of the android platform. The battle isn't iPhone vs. Android, it's Apple vs HTC vs Motorola vs Samsung vs SE vs LG vs Nokia vs... Samsung is just as (un)likely to help HTC or LG as they are to help Apple.
I hear this so often but is there any evidence for it? I just don't think it's true.

If it is true then these are skills that can be learned, there is nothing magic about managing time.

Peoples lives would on the whole be infinitely better. I haven't worked in an office for 4 years and my life is better, my families life is better, my work is better, my home is better, my environmental impact is much lower.
"Is it worth the time and hassle? Only you can answer that for yourself."

No. Absolutley not. The little sys admin work I have to do at work is all that I want to. I trust Apple and Google with all my stuff -- icloud storage, passwords, Google for email, etc. It just works, and I can move on with my life and focus on things of value to me instead of worrying about an upgrade blowing things up, security patching, backups, etc.

I'm losing my mind. I can't believe I actually used to think it would be preferable.
That does not answer the question. You answered the question of "how many coins do you intend to sell" not "how many coins do you currently hold." Based on your answer I can only assume that you hold >50% of the coins and intend to sell 50% of them in the near future.
Do you perhaps know the version of the browser? Thank you for reporting anyways and I'll take a look!
Would be nice if someone extrapolated how the wages would look like today if the H1-B program wasn't put into place. Would programmers be making WallStreet salaries? How would that have impacted the start-up ecosystem? Also, numerous H1-Bs are the core of companies like Google, Microsoft, Facebook etc. How would things have looked without any of them?
I've been scared to post any plea's because I don't want to be that guy, so I haven't experimented with this plan except for here (Well see how it goes).

PHP was a fun language; I wrote this (https://github.com/jessehorne/phpbf) with it. Some would say that's no where near enough to experience PHP, but I got enough taste to realize it was similar to a lot of other languages I had dabbled with in the past.

I'm going to look into a couple of PHP forums, probably related to some popular framework to see if I can find some work. The time it would take to learn one of them is time I could spend developing using a language that I know already, but I guess priority should be determined after this thread has died.

Thank you for the advice, friend.
Are you confusing some individuals who commented positively about the new CEO's digital plan with the whole popular trend of trying to punish short sellers and maybe turn GME shares into a kind of currency that has value independent of how the company is actually doing, like cryptocurrencies?
That it severely limits new influences, because gatekeeping is usually taken to mean contend moderation on "we only accept more of what's already inside" style principles.
So now you need the runtime for that other language in your system-wide configuration management solution. Plus all the other runtimes for languages someone decided to use as a configuration language.
That’s exactly what gets me about Tesla. This is a truck you will probably never be able to repair yourself or at local shops (for software reasons alone) and is totally dependent on Tesla’s attention span and staying in business to hold its value.

Farmers are fed up with John Deere and their software shenanigans. I hope people like you who are actually thinking about value, don’t fall for this...
What's the expected value of not having your brand known for routinely canceling products without much notice? It seems like any company would have to be crazy to want to depend on any new Google service for anything important - and that's bad for Google.

I want someone to start an opt-out service, where I send them $20, and they send a book of names by registered mail for opt-outs every month.

An online opt-out system is too easy for them. I want each one to get a phone-book sized list of opt-outs every month.

And the same for data requests. Someone that curates the data collectors, and sends them requests every month.

Do you know which country’s “do not call” list I want to be on? All of them! Get my number on the AU list, the UK list, the DE list...

Let’s crash the system.
Another argument for designing languages and formats so that there is no need for the comma.
I started with writing open source Ruby gem https://github.com/ArturT/knapsack for running tests in parallel on CI and later I gave a talk on local meetup event for Ruby developers.

With time I wrote more blog posts https://docs.knapsackpro.com and shared on Reddit, Twitter, LinkedIn profile or Ruby groups. From time to time posts landed in RubyWeekly newsletter.

Also asking users for recommendation might help.

I connected with each person on LinkedIn I talked to or who signed up and I followed them on Twitter. People who like your product can easily see you publish new content and can like or share it.
That it erodes the position of EU banks in favor of Visa and Mastercard. I have no problem with them facilitating the tech, but I do have a problem with them usurping the position of the banks. The EU is already too dependent on the United States in this manner, no need to make it worse.
How naive. Why would any lowly person have ever trusted what their lords told them?

"Some furry guy who wrote emacs 40 years ago? Why is it that the web was built with php and perl?"

Try using Google? CL-HTTP has been around since 1994, Symbolics came out with the second ever commercial 3d animation package a few months after Wavefront in 1983 or 1984, first HDTV-capable digital editing systems in 1989 for Japan, etc. Most of the "hot" parallel processing stuff of today (Map/Reduce, futures, actors) was done in Lisp at MIT in the early 80s.

Just because you're too lazy to find out whether something exists doesn't mean it's not there.
I think he was asking why it is a phone app and not a more appropriate website format.
It's quite neat but really crashy.
Shouldn't this month be a wake-up call to drive the point that Cloud Services, SaS and all variations of "Live" content serve nobody else than the people selling us their projects? Amazon EC2, Sony PSN, Google's GMail outage last month and God knows who next should be made into poster children for this issue.

We spent the last 30 years migrating away from mainframes towards decentralized PC computing; only to have the centralized version shoved back in our throats for no better reason than helping monetization.

It's time people start realizing how much control they're giving away when they exchange a local product for a remote service, and for vendors to adapt to their user's well-being.
That is purely a software issue. Word size does not limit how big numbers computer can handle, it just implies how big numbers it can handle efficiently. Even lowly 8-bit computers/microcontrollers can do arbitrary precision/bignum math.
I'm not in the US. Our police officers aren't desperate to meet quotas and don't have any reason to assume a driver is armed and/or dangerous. I don't have any reason to believe a conversation with a police officer in my country will lead to anything other than improving my chance to be let go with a warning instead of a fine.

That said, I'm still in my probation period (only started driving a little more than a year ago) and haven't violated any traffic laws yet at all. Most speeding checks are done with unmanned cameras anyway, so your first contact with the orderlies will be a flash followed by a stern letter a few weeks later.
>> Python has great concurrency primitives, including generators, greenlets, Deferreds, and futures.

It's controversial statement.

Generators, greenlets, deferreds, and futures, it's all not great concurrency primitives definitely. It's okay for typical "python" tasks, but many applications have needs in more powerful solutions like golang channels for example.
