The problem with moving to a diet richer in fat is that it can cause digestive problems, such as GERD.

This seems like a huge premature optimisation. Reduced-calorie diets result in clinically meaningful weight loss regardless of which macronutrients they emphasise [1]. For someone who wants to lose weight or maintain their current weight, eating a calorie controlled diet is the first (and often only) thing they need to do.

Eating a calorie-controlled diet is primarily a psychological challenge. They should therefore eat with whatever frequency and quantity they personally find makes sticking to a calorie-controlled diet easiest, whether that's eating 2 meals a day at 07:00 and 13:00, or eating 5 meals a day, or eating 1 meal a day at 21:00, or whatever works for them.

The title of this story alone is problematic, not just its contents, because its a sign of how wrong the conventional wisdom is on this. It accuses scientists of breaking the law with secret code-words.

A more accurate title would have been: "Scientists forced to break the law to access the research they need in order to advance scientific knowledge."

A more provocative but still accurate title would have been: "Scientific progress impeded by corporations extracting economic rents from scientists and taxpayers, to the detriment of humankind."

Because that is what is happening.
I can confirm that the machine from 2008 with the Intel Integrated Graphics 965 really doesn't work. This stuff obviously needs the newer technology. If your machine is more recent, then the problem could be the drivers.
That is exactly the point. You're implying that the current definition (as interpreted by you) is the only possible meaningful definition. History shows this doesn't work out for all definitions.
Really?

Before the flood, I seem to remember you could get a 1TB Samsung F1 7200rpm drive for £30.

So why do open access online-only publishers like PLoS charge $3k/article? Is that just pure profit?
I totally get where you're coming from, I don't like what I suggested either. But it is reality. We would be ignorant to say "Shouldn't people just stop harassing?". People won't stop harassing. You can educate and PSA the hell out of the issue. It will not stop. You can lessen it, but it won't stop; welcome to Humanity.

Like I said, celebrities have been dealing with this for decades. It's only become an issue now because "commoners" are much more capable of reaching fame than ever before. Nobody shed any tears for the hundreds of actors and actresses who have been harassed over the years. "That's fame, deal with it" they said.

>IF I come and creep you out, stalk you, threaten harm to you and your family, maybe you should just change name and location, and go live in a different state.

I would alter that to say "maybe you should contact the police".
As long as you can justify in your next interview. Your employer will want to know whether you jumped ship to top off your salary, or if you really weren't getting what you put in. Take a case of stagnation as a chance to try something big. Even if it doesn't work, it makes for a compelling narrative.
To each his own. I've used an SP3 hard for a year now, and came from a 2012 MacBook Air. While the keyboard is inferior, I value the functionality, and honestly, it works fine. The trackpad is among the best I've used with Windows. As for software, as a lawyer I require little more than the Office Suite, Acrobat, and a browser (I use Chrome). All work beautifully on the Surface (and Windows 10 made it better), and I've been pleased/impressed with battery life. Finally, I could not disagree more about desktop OneNote. It's my favorite piece of software. I use it all day, every day.

I don't mean to be contrarian, but for all the years Microsoft took heat on HN for sucking, I think they deserve some real credit for developing a product that, at least for me, works really, really well.
Er, "most people" certainly don't do that; and incorporating comes at a tax penalty (corporate profits that are distributed to shareholders are taxed again) -- the primary reason people are doing it is limited liability. And people can and do end up in jail for not paying taxes.

For every indie who has made it trying to make AAA games... wait, there aren't any. AAA games are for companies with the resources to port code to every platform they can imagine.

I'm not a diehard gamer, myopically focused on only AAA to the detriment of my livelihood. I'm a developer. There is more business for me in "casual" games--whatever that actually means, because it seems to only ever be used as a pejorative that means "not Call of Duty"--than is realistically possible in AAA.

I agree, those are causes for concern. It doesn't matter if they're using radiation - whether they'd be using chemicals, biological agents or voodoo, as the issues of proper training and secrecy around a device that fails dangerously is a serious matter. They should be opposed as everything from waste of tax money to being a public safety issue, just not because of the radiation per se.
SaaS Metrics: Benchmarking Your Churn Rates
If you are smart about what you eat, you can run a large calorie deficit and still feel just fine. My typical day has me eating about 2400 calories and burning anywhere from 3400-3700, and I feel absolutely fine (even though I'm quite lean). I never get hunger-related cravings, when I go off my diet it's more about desire for variety.

My diet is primarily comprised of vegetables, beans, eggs and whey protein with a moderate amount of lean meat. I easily clear 225g/protein/day and ~120g/fiber/day, and I consume a lot of fermented vegetables (which definitely have a strong satiating effect).
Why would it? Japanese adult adoption isn't romantic in nature.
An example I can think of offhand is AMD (now Global Foundaries) choosing to locate one of their new fabs in Dresden after being offered lucrative tax benefits by the German government.

AMD got to save money on the fab, Germany got long term economic investment in the former east. It was pretty much a win-win deal.
My brief visits to France, England, Japan, and Brazil have left me deeply unimpressed with their public library systems. Here in Argentina there are bookstores everywhere but they sell almost exclusively fiction (including astrology, psychology, revisionist history, etc.; maybe "matters of opinion" is a more charitable term) and the library system is a poor shadow of what I'm used to even in the poor parts of the US. And of course Micronesia's library system was a joke when I was there, but it doesn't count as "developed".

The Fastned Freedom Plan
Count the cost of prohibition and do the math. It's cheaper to not spend billions of dollars on prisons and courts then to treat drug abuse like the health issue that it is.

Perhaps the police need to come and kick down your door and throw you in prison to keep you from drinking any more alcohol. You know, for your own good and to protect society.
SCOTUS decisions don't change hearts and minds, that's true. But SCOTUS decisions tend to follow long-term changes in public opininion. Gay marriage wouldn't have passed 50 years ago. SCOTUS acts like a classic common law court: the law exists independently of the courts, in the people, and the task of the court is to discover it.
>With shared libraries, you have to trust outside developers will not change function signatures or break your dependencies in some way.

With bundled libraries, the user has to trust outside developers, that didn't write those libraries, to stay on top of critical security updates to those libraries and releases new versions of their software with the relevant patches. This is completely unsustainable, both for the developer and the user.
And that is the sweet spot where you get the ease of swarm with the scalability of mesos. Win/win
I'd like to know what Tatum offers in comparison to fabric8.io. It seems the "video intro" and "take it for a spin" links are the same, and not a video introduction. That's disappointing. Maybe someone in charge of the page can fix it please?

Searching for "Tatum video introduction" on a search engine only returns results about a certain movie star, which is not terribly helpful.
They all come with massive compromises.
The model that most scientists at the time favored (including those in the Church) was the Tychonic system. In the Tychonic system the planets all revolved around the Sun, but the Sun then revolved around the stationary Earth. This had the advantage of correctly predicting things like the phases of Venus.

The reason that it was preferred over the Copernican system was that it additionally predicted that parallax of the stars should not be observed. At the time astronomers had looked for parallax as a way to test the Copernican system, and had not observed it. This was the strongest point in favor of the Tychonic system. As it happened, the stars were much further away than astronomers at the time realized, so the parallax was much smaller than they could have detected with the instruments of the time. (In fact, it took more than two centuries before parallax was detected.)

But the point is that I think that if any of us were alive at the time and took careful stock of all the evidence most of us would probably come to the same conclusion that most of the astronomers of time did. Namely that, while interesting, the Copernican system did not have as much evidence supporting it as the Tychonic system did. But if Galileo had built a Foucault pendulum instead, it would have been a very different story!
I have worked on several large applications where libraries were customized and bundled in. We would have been better off in the long term implementing the small delta we needed from the library in our application. In every case I saw, it was just an example of lazy engineering that led us to bundling.
I'm using a Surface Pro 2 and it's still an amazing piece of hardware. I'm eagerly waiting the Surface Book release in the UK because my biggest bugbear is actually using it on your lap, but having the comfort of a tablet for use in the evening.

> These journals are providing a service.

The journals provide a service, but Elsevier is a rent-seeking entity, it buys up/takes over publications and hikes up prices.

http://imechanica.org/node/1531#comment-3251 estimates that the International Journal of Solids and Structures cost about $0.5m/year to run and had revenues of about $3.5m, or a net profit of $3m going to Elsevier for owning the journal and little else.
Surely you jest.

Probably the most chilling thing about the book Gun Laws of America, Every Federal Gun Law on the Books (http://www.amazon.com/Gun-Laws-America-6th-Edition/dp/188963...) is how many of the ones restricting the government or are otherwise favorable to gun owners were somehow never incorporated into the U.S. Code. In the last "Statutes at Large" chapter of the 5th edition are 28 items, each from a separate bill that was passed.

Note that on its face, not incorporating all the language of bills into the U.S. code is frequently reasonable, e.g. N words that result in changing "10 years" into "15 years". Or legality neutral funding language. But the 28 examples Korwin and company found are not innocent.

I wonder how many other examples might be found in other fields of law....

So Musk said to keep hands on the wheel all the time, but these morons still do whatever they think they want and then complain. The car started beeping while it still was on proper line, if only he had his hands on a wheel he would have simply just start steering as usual, but the time it took him to 1. Realize its beeping, 2. Lift up his arms and put them on a steering. could have lead to an accident, and he obviously was not following instructions of Tesla
> "Of all the perks, however, health care was by far the most "frequently used for employee retention. A full 80 percent of HR professionals in the survey cited health benefits, more than retirement and vacation, as a way to keep talent, up from 58 percent in 2012".

I've yet to see an HR professional at the table who can truly strategize on retaining talent. People seldom stay for benefits alone, but they will stay for good bosses.

Physical disks are not going down in price because their market volume is shrinking, their technology is just not evolving. On consumer machines, the 5400rpm drives are being replaced by other 5400 or by SSDs, not by 7200rpm. So the 5400 disks don't go down in price, whereas SSDs do (albeit slowly, due to technological constraints).

AppHub: The Platform for React Native
Hey there, author here! This took a little research: most of the instructions on the internet are for network admins adding local CAs to browsers rather than for users to control who they trust.

We ended up with instructions for configuring the major root stores: OS X, Windows, Firefox and Android. We weren't able to identify a way to choose which iOS 9 inbuilt certificates you trust - Apple Configurator 2 only allows you to add certs.

If HN knows knows how to do this on iOS, let us know!
It's parasitic because they're charging authors and readers. If publishing is a service to the author, then the author is paying to have their work seen, so it should be open access. If publishing is a service to the readers (as with book publishing), the author should get a share of each copy sold to a reader. Charging both parties is only a viable business model because there's no alternative—which is exactly what these linguists hope to fix.

Great news if for nothing else, this spells the end of the Fav/RT binary polls that are fundamentally flawed in their form.
Is this actually true, or has TNW just looked at a selection of websites biased towards their usual coverage? If all you look at are websites from SaaS startups then it's very likely you'll see a huge number of bootstrap sites than look very similar because the people who build them aren't designers and they want something passable that's easy to throw together.

If you look a bit further afield, at sites designed by individuals and for established companies who aren't afraid of being a little different, there's some very interesting and exciting designs to see.
It illustrates how hard it is to create in-between solutions, though. It's hard to properly get across the limitations of a less-than-perfect system.

Clearly this driver is outside of the recommended highway driving scenario. There are multiple warnings both audible and big red indications on the sensor dash that automation is about to stop.

- Corporate jets are not the kind of property that is taxed in most places (are there any jurisdictions that tax this kind of property?!) -- in all cases I know of, property tax is applied to real estate, and I suspect is mostly borne by individuals.

- Shopping for preferred residency is not what this is about -- if you actually live in Monte Carlo, it only stands to reason that you would be paying taxes in Monte Carlo.

- This exact time clocking actually happens everywhere all the time (e.g. take Florida residency as an example, or US tax residency for that matter)
Doc Brown Is a Crap UI Designer
Strangely my workflow is in a place where most of my graphic programs also exist on Windows (Lightroom mostly, everything else is easily changeable).

It's my terminal workflow that I can only use on a Mac/Linux.
Zsh, Vim, Tmux, LateX, Python and mostly a package manager (Apt on Linux, Homebrew on the Mac). Most of which I can just configure in a new system pulling the config files from my Github repository in less than 15 minutes after a fresh install.

That's what's mainly holding me from going back to windows (and the Application update process which is still awful as I can see from my VMware installation of Windows 10... seriously, updating the various components of Visual Studio in a semi manual way is just ridiculous), is there any good alternative for the Shell in windows that doesn't involve considerable tinking?

The problem is that nutrition research is very fragmented, and most researchers study diseased states. Thus, you have people who study nutritional metabolism related to diebetes, heart disease, obesity, high blood pressure, etc. Additionally, most of the researchers know a few metabolic pathways relevant to their research extremely well, but have very limited knowledge of the metabolic network as a whole.

It is unfortunate that very few researchers study nutrition as it relates to longevity or optimal human performance. There's very little money available for that type of work, and well-controlled nutrition studies on humans are expensive.
Interesting to see how instant-gratification-type habits like endlessly browsing your news feed are the new low-grade drug habits.

Google (as opposed to Alphabet) really only has Ads, everything else is just to help get those ads in front of more people more often.

In the sense that both Google and Yahoo are mostly focused about showing adds, they are not that different. Google has just more means of showing ads that are more effective, and viewed as cooler by its users.

Why Decentralized Identity Matters
The concept of resource/system_resource was borrowed from projects like puppet, chef. ansible, specinfra, etc.

There's probably an opportunity to make this more generic by adding setter methods to the system_resources and extracting them out to their own repo. At that point it can be a shared library leveraged by goss and CM tools.. similar to how specinfra is used by serverspec and itamae.
