The narrative text is not much better. This sounds like something generated by a Markov chain:

> I’ll just mention that “one-way binding” in AngularJS 2.x and in ReactJS isn’t the same thing. The binding mechanism is completely different. It provides wider functionality in AngularJS 2.x compared to ReactJS. We’ll have to wait and see how it works in AngularJS 2.x. In ReactJS, the one way rendering flow is very straightforward, fast and easy to understand, debug and trace in comparison to “two-way binding” implemented in AngularJS 1.x.
I'm starting to think good VR might do more to kill hydrocarbon consumption than electric vehicles. So many examples where moving meatbags around could be avoided altogether.
Why not go into it? It's exactly the question you're responding to. I'm not trying to flame you, I'd like to understand what the drawbacks of such a diet are.
I really liked this! I will also have to think on it more.

However, I think you sell the initial idea short - that seniority DOES ultimately boil down to direction required / direction provided.

The only place this summary would fall short are in those people who can bust out anything on their own in record time, but have trouble with teams... and even they provide direction, if only by setting a technical direction/example.

When you expand to the venn diagram, you're elaborating on the kinds of direction that can required or provided, but that core remains - that ultimately, seniority happens as you go from needing direction to providing it.

Now, within in different industries, the points within each circle can change (compare startups, where now is better than perfect, to industrial plants, where perfect is better than now, to research, where now and perfect are sacrificed to hard and novel).

I'd say it's even likely that, given a different culture and/or problem domain and/or ???, you get different circles entirely - although it's hard to argue with "ability to do the job", "ability to work with others" and "ability to cause direction". What are things that don't fit into one of those?

>study after study proving that MSG in food is harmless //

The side issue is objective truth here. So, you're telling me that no one has ever been harmed by consuming normal quantities of MSG? That's what "proven harmless" means.

It only requires one study to show some link between MSG and negative health effects to make it rational to seek that information, something like this http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27312658 maybe, suggesting neuronal destruction (using mice as a model). It's not proof.

For example, from the Wikipedia article on "Glutamate flavoring":

>"At a meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in 1990, the delegates had a split opinion on the issues related to neurotoxic effects from excitotoxic amino acids found in some additives such as monosodium glutamate."

If neuroscience experts don't have consensus, that would be a reason to avoid "additives such as MSG", no?

I still think that if we're going to do this democracy thing that people who want "no MSG" labels ['no free glutamate' would probably be more useful] should get them regardless of my view of their scientific basis.

Personally MSG doesn't really bother me, I don't like the "enhanced" taste with foods that are rich in it but a little seems fine. I do get headache and bloatedness after having the UK version of Chinese Restaurant food, seemingly more so than with other food types, but I'm pretty sure that's just over-eating [perhaps the enhanced flavour encourages it?].
That picture at the start is really outdated.

I don't have to be. Since we're far more efficient now then we were half a century ago, even if workforce participation goes down, we would still produce a lot more then we did in the 1960s. Relatively speaking, regressing to that level of consumption would be a relatively minor lifestyle adjustment. Let's also not forget that the elderly can, and do useful work.

Compared to the problems of overpopulation, this doesn't even register as a crisis.
The article's description reminds me of free breakfast you find at cheap hotels, the "meeting" breakfast they provide with coffee with those all too early work meetings, or the stuff at gas stations. Basically the prepackaged side of things when you don't have time to cook breakfast or sit down at a restaurant.

Nothing at all about reliability, which is going to be the biggest factor the aerospace industry will be considering about this. You can sacrifice reliability for extreme power-to-weight ratio, as evidenced by things like Top Fuel dragsters and even the electric motors in RC planes are optimised more for power than longevity.

I haven't had an outage in years. I've never had a switch or any network equipment die on me either. We also bury our cables here (everything except the high-voltage power distribution network) so there is no risk of trees falling on wires.

Seriously, why would you run cables on poles, that seems super fragile to me.

Every time I've noticed I'm on a page using Angular or React the experience feels terrible. Like there are 100 different unnecessary things going on in the background. Though to be fair these are only the times I've noticed I'm on a page using one.

Every time I've tried to pick up and learn Angular or React or etc, I've gotten the impression that it is wildly over engineered and ultimately just bloat. Like if I tried to do something with it, there would be 100 different unnecessary things going on in the background.

I've been happily and successfully building javascript heavy apps for the client side which work very well and are quite functional without the need for a giant framework. I never feel this way about the server, on the server frameworks seem elegant.

Why is it as soon as I move client side I'm overcome with the feeling it is over engineered? My theory is that none of these things are even necessary there.

I have used react and angular2. Plus some other frameworks like polymer and vuejs. And have studied a few others. The one that makes me more productive is riotjs. Simple, minimalist design, yet it has the best implementation of components of them all. Components are custom tags written in html, with scoped javascript and css styles, in a single file. This is easier than React because your html is actual html, not trapped inside of render jsx functions. It is easier than angular, because it is simpler, faster to write and read.

It has one way data binding, like React, that is simpler to reason than 2-way in Angular. Riotjs is the framework that I recommend.
Angular and React are two different things. How could anyone make a meaningful comparison between them?

Are you talking about USA labelling here?

In the EU (as we still are in the UK for the moment) this http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/organic/eu-policy/eu-legisla... is the situation with food labelled "Organic". It's certainly not about being pre-industrial, it's about being sustainable and cautious with natural resources and health.
Although, thinking on it more - seniority (in a category, rather than overall) being defined by "providing versus needing direction" misses the axis of receptivity to outside direction. Think of the over-eager "junior" dev too full of ideas to hear anyone else's, or the "senior" dev to full of knowledge to accept any more...
I just came back from Barcelona too and the Catalan breakfast I found was things like bread with tomato, octopus, tripe, etc

There were plenty of bakeries selling croissants dipped in chocolate and little cafés selling eggs and french fries but I got the impression this was mostly for the tourists (at least according to the large rant we got from the hostel night manager when we asked him where he recommended for breakfast).
Because, besides the creepy ad networks and stuff, it's most often used in a mix of shitty engineering and user-hostile practices.

Let's consider a web document like this article here. Its stated goal is to be read by the visitor and thus deliver him value. So presumably, an article that's easier to read is better than one harder to read. An article that, ceteris paribus, consumes less resources on user end is better than one that consumes more.

Now we have a perfect technology to deliver that article. Plain old HTML. With a little bit of CSS on top. When what you want to send is text communicating a message, you need exactly zero JavaScript to do that successfully[0]. You barely even need much CSS - the default browser styles, raw as they are, are better than most web designers produce, if you care about providing value to the user.

Now if you don't, here starts JavaScript. Look at just what JS on Wired does and find me one line of code that actually serves the user. The JS there tracks you, shows you ads, shows you nagging popups[1], adds social media buttons that are somewhat useful if you want to exchange being tracked everywhere for convenience of not having to CTRL+TAB to that Facebook tab. In general, JS here is a waste of electricity (often in users' phone batteries).

You can run a similar analysis of other websites[2] and rarely if ever you'll find one when JavaScript does anything other than fuck users over more or less subtly. The technology is fine, but everyone[3] is using it for user-hostile purposes, and/or because of bad engineering. Think of all the scroll hijacking, JS rendering article text dynamically on a blog page, etc. Personally I dislike it from the very same reason I dislike crappy code.

[2] - Web apps are a different topic; I don't think anybody is saying you should turn off JavaScript for GMail or Google Docs. But most of the sites on the web are not, and should not behave like web apps.

As tallanvor notes, cholesterol-egg connection is pretty weak. Upwards of 80% of your cholesterol is manufactured by your body. Since Timothy Ferris boosted the slow-carb diet, there's been a huge increase in the sample set for 'regularly eating eggs for breakfast' - with no negatives (that I've seen reported, at least). Plus there's the question of whether cholesterol is really a good indicator for heart disease - last I read on this stuff (Ben Goldacre's work) I got the impression there's some correlation, but no causation. And not in a weaselly kind of way, but in a we shouldn't be so focussed on cholesterol figures way.

Personal data point - 3 eggs almost every breakfast, with some sliced meat or avocado - for about 6 years, with no adverse affects. And with no concern about 'extra' eggs in lunches and dinners (fritata, chachouka, tortilla, quiche, etc).

There's no games for that console, and very few new ones are still to come out. I've got a wii u, but I still have the same games I bought in the year of launch - Mario Kart 8, Mario 3D World, Mario Super Mario Bros U - can you see a pattern here? Xenoblade is meant to be good but I don't have time for a 100h+ JRPG, and any other genres are avoiding the WiiU, if you want a first person shooter, a sports game, a racing game, you will go with the competition. Not to mention that non-mario Wii U games just look very poor when compared to PS4/X1.
These are good questions. The short answer is that the blockchain offers several benefits over a traditional payment system like allowing the people mining the content to be guaranteed payment (no matter what) and helping to preserve privacy in those paying for it. Such benefits would be very hard to provide if everything was done using a traditional financial system, not to mention the fees could potentially be quite prohibitive.

With something like a peer-to-peer network you also gain the power to scale up and locate content over the Internet more quickly than something like a few data centers might give you (which may not be as distributed as running a peer-to-peer network of retrieval agents for searching disparate data sets.) The benefits are more pronounced for running datachains for controversial content where a distributed, incentivized ledger can help preserve the intended purpose (and chain of content) far better than entrusted everything to a centralized organization or list of computers.

Admittedly, there are lot of bizarre projects in the blockchain space at the moment, so I'll keep thinking about whether this truly makes sense to do in practice.
This is a very interesting service, thank you!

May I ask you for some little thing that might change the (development) world? Would you please like to introduce a folder, where people might put their dependency.yml file - this is an effort to finally stop the spreading cancer of "put one more config file into the project root".

I would like to suggest to call that folder simply "config" - all the projects and tools out there should have no problem with that. Optionally there could be one top level config file called "config.rc" - this file points to the actual config dir if it is not "config".

It would be verrry nice if one service just starts with that and hopefully all the others will follow and it will become a defacto standard. The pollution of the top level project directories really must stop.

Thank you!

It's definitely not a Scandinavian thing not to sweeten yoghurt, since it's common in Sweden.

That is, it's trivial to find non-sweetened yoghurt, but all the flavored varieties (of which there are many) are sweetened, often rather much.

A recent introduction by dairy giant Arla is http://www.arla.se/produkter/arla-ko/mild-yoghurt-vanilj-lat... (page in Swedish), which is specifically sold as containing "less sugar"; it still lands at 6.3% sugar (2.5% of which was added, the rest is natural from the milk I assume).
I too value being able to customise or mess with the software, but there is way too much insistence on "purity" than on providing working tools. I'm not a dev, I'm studying to be a mechanical/automation engineer. The "purity" circlejerk is completely orthogonal to me. Nobody I know uses free software for very long because right now is inherently broken - Libre Office will fail you, Octave will fail you, Gimp or ImageMagick will fail you, often with bugs that are known for YEARS. Linux will blow up in your face one way or another evenutally. Unless "un-broneness" is prioritised more I don't see free software going really big. (Tool/Product wise)

> Given that the US is a lot more racially heterogenous

The US? Sure, but this isn't about the US.

The population chosen (or available) for the study does not reflect that diversity.

https://www.framinghamheartstudy.org/participants/index.php

> The Original Cohort of the Framingham Heart Study consisted of 5,209 respondents
> of a random sample of 2/3 of the adult population of Framingham, Massachusetts

So I don't understand why you point to diversity in some wider but not included group to reason about results based on the much more limited one.

Stratification doesn't help much - it doesn't generate missing data, it still is based on that limited population.

The study isn't "wrong" of course, it clearly states what data it is based on and what methods they employed. If there's anything wrong it's the interpretation by others. This is merely a hint "maybe worth having a closer look at this", it isn't meant to be used to draw any final conclusions from. Papers like this are for "internal use", for other researchers in the field, it should never go to the wider media. It's like a programmer showing their very first lines of code for a new idea, and then trying to draw conclusions about the quality of the final software to be released five years later, written by different people in a different programming language. Bad example, because here at least you already know what it will be about while in the study this remains open, so I reframed it to be about "(software) quality".

They don't state which Vanguard funds you'll have access to (though they explicitly say they just use passive ones), but apparently there is an option to have the employee do a custom allocation within their menu of funds. Given the .10% expected fee for the underlying mutual funds I'm guessing they're assuming investor class (like VTIAX), which is pretty fair!

A one-time, $500 setup fee, and $8/month per employee is pretty great. The .03% custodial fee to the employee isn't bad either.

Again the big hurdle for a small startup / business is even being able to offer these (contacting Fidelity and Vanguard is sadly awful as a small person without company history or at least 20 employees). Glad to see competition in this space!

"Senior developer" is a job title. Think of it as army ranks, each national army might have their own names and ways or promoting others.

Some people also argue what is the difference between calling yourself coder, programmer, software developer and software engineer, and even taking the debate as far as questioning if a software engineer is an actual engineer.

To be honest, these debates are sort of empty unless there is clear regulation and disambiguation around what seniority is. You can define seniority in many ways.
