I don't like doing shorter fasts because you only experience the worst part of them. The first 3-4 days are the worst and then everything clears (pre-existing conditions in skin/joints/intestine, mind fogginess, etc). Going out of the fast is a good time to experiment with food/situations and see what could be causing some of the issues you've been experiencing (if any).

I usually go for a 7-day water fast twice a year (and just completed one a few weeks ago). The results are obvious to me. YMMV.

Mandatory warning: I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor.
Are you suggesting endocrine disruptors are affecting mental health ?
That would be an interesting study. Especially since we have research suggesting the gut(microbiome) plays a role in mental health.
I don't see how the fact of having taken part of the Olympiads 17 years ago says anything about his abilities now.
The people commenting in this thread to the effect of "what's wrong with this, I live like this too" just blow me away. This isn't a way to live, it's a way to hide. You have a mental illness and should seek support.
> Why can't I have an email number?

You can if you want (it is a valid email). But, if everyone had a numeric email it would be a lot harder to catch spam or know if you are sending to a bot. Sure, spammers can masquerade as a friendly name like yourmom313@domain.com now but it's easier to spot names you know than 471871731@domain.com.

> Why can't emails be carried over to other domains?

I like the idea in abstract. Practically speaking, though, this would not only require millions of emails to be purged from every ISP in the world it would also require some kind of creepy global email registry. That defies the decentralized spirit of the Web and would instantly become the Holy Grail of hacker targets.
Not what I would have thought, but they say:

What is special about riseup.net email
Your riseup.net email account is a wonderful thing. Although we don’t provide as much storage quota as surveillance-funded corporate email providers, riseup.net email has many unusual features:

We encrypt traffic whenever possible.
When you send email from riseup.net to another secure email provider, the email is encrypted for its entire journey. (see StartTLS for more info)

We don’t disclose your location to email recipients.
When you send email with riseup.net, your internet address (IP address) is not embedded in the email. With corporate email providers, anyone who receives your email can figure out your approximate physical location from the internet address included in the email.

We don’t log your internet address.
Our commitment is to keep as little data on you as we can. Unlike corporate providers, we do not log internet addresses of anyone using riseup.net services, including email.
Sentences usually have whitespaces between words though, makes the passwords much easier to remember and handle.

I'm assuming last.fm does not support blanks in their passwords since none of these passwords use that character. Or perhaps very few people realize you can use that character to help make passwords more manageable.

My recommendation to people who ask the past few years has been full, grammatically correct sentences.

Yup, its inspired by `ledger` and the syntax is similar to a large extent. The focus is on cross-platform support, and a more declarative style (order of specifying transactions shouldn't matter).

A detailed comparison is missing, however.

It's pretty sad, as the solution is staring at them in the face. These are the companies who refuse to adapt.
Sure, in a perfect world the documentation would guess who I am and adapt accordingly, be both highly detailed when I need it or informal when I don't.

But it's not a perfect world, I want to get stuff done. I have twenty years of programming experience, I know how to find the information I need.

Sure, the whole language explained in one place for all kind of people from beginners to experts would be nice.
But I have Internet. I type "foreach python" in Google and I see a StackOverflow post.
You are in no position to criticize someone who is successful. Nobody can say for sure what would have happened if they didn't do what they did. Your passive aggressive tone just reads like you are hiding your own insecurity about some 16 year old girl being more successful in an area you are trying to get successful for many years.

Because the "common population" does not have half their blood replaced by burning chemicals every week.

At my day job we are asked to use Box (enterprise), and while it is ok (not great, but not totally awful) as a solution for sharing/distributing files for both internal and external recipients (avoiding those emails with huge attachments)...It absolutely sucks at searching for your files. I starting using tags - similar to Gmail's excellent labels - with the hopes of finding my files without getting a ton of irrelevant stuff...but no dice. Searching for files in Box still so often brings up irrelevant files as to be counter-productive. Again, Box has its benefits, but point blank, search is broken within Box...which means for my team and I to find things we can not depend on search (or tags/labels)...which means we have to depend on old school folder hierarchies; and all the potential downsides that it brings. My hope is this partnership DOES bring some of google's search prowess into the Box product.
Before answering further, please ask yourself what's more important to you: feeling "right" about something on which you have a pre-determined belief, or listening to and fully considering the experiences of someone who has a strong personal incentive to understand this issue more thoroughly than most people do.

I haven't diagnosed myself with "EMF hypersensitivity", or hypersensitivity to anything else (I'm not a voluntary gluten-avoider, or heavy consumer of organic kale or chia seeds or any other faddish "superfoods").

I'm surrounded by EMF all day from the iPhone in my pocket, the Wi-Fi enabled laptop on my lap, and the Bluetooth sound system in my car, not to mention all the incidental EMF that you mention. And I don't have any belief that any of it is a major problem, any more than the full-gluten bread and pasta I eat, the red meat I enjoy, or the red wine and beer I drink - all in moderation of course.

Over the 10+ years I've been dealing with this illness, I've tried living with and without all of these and many other things, and have developed a very good sense of what my body tolerates well and what it doesn't.

One thing I know very well is that my sleep is of lower quality when I have a transmitting cellphone right beside my head all night.

And whilst I don't need lab studies to convince myself, for your benefit I can point to some studies [1] and a perfectly plausible mechanism for why this is the case, which is that the phone transmissions alter brain waves (i.e., Alpha, Beta, Theta, Delta), which play a significant role in sleep quality. (Speaking of which, I've personally had good success improving my sleep by entraining my brainwaves through the use of binaural beats [2] – indeed this is one of the very reasons I use the headphones while sleeping in the first place.)

Whether this will also be the case with Bluetooth, I don't know - I'm open-minded either way. As I've always done, at some point I'll experiment and go with what enables me to sleep and feel my best. But in the short term I'll stick with what has been working well for me up till now.

You're right that it's not very easy being in the fringes, here's hoping you get better.

Made all the more difficult when your conversations on the topic so often tend towards patronising misappropriations of science to dismiss your experiences.

But for what it's worth, my health (and sleep) is the best it's been in at least 5 years, and continuing to improve at an increasing rate, thanks.

What's so special about 749.99925?
It's is known that Wikileaks release files with malware in it from the source they're leaking; only thing the would be news, which is unlikely in my opinion, is that someone is using Wikileaks for malware distribution.

Anyone viewing files like this should always treat them as extremely dangerous.
I'm not so sure that it's correct to call Chomsky a leftist. He clearly is not a Marxist and finds the ideology ridiculous, at the same level as religion. If Lakoff is a Marxist or socialist, then the two clearly do not have political views that are compatible.

Chomsky is, I believe, best referred to as a social libertarian, which means that he opposes both state and enterprise power and see them as more or less the same, and instead favors the individual. It is clear here why Marxists don't like him, at all.

I think this is also why the authors of the OA challenge Chomsky without offering anything other than minor claims hidden away throughout the text that language is a product of social interaction rather than a capability that lies within the individual. It is about the collective versus the individual and as a fierce individualist, the authors disagree with Chomsky on political grounds, not scientific.
I wouldn't go as far to say they're stuck in the 80s, but when it comes to technology and current trends Nintendo is consistently considered the lagging player (the fact that they're still grappling with online gaming and infrastructure is laughable).

The general consumer doesn't understand how miserable a failure their latest console was and that the small catalog of "high rated" games (debatable considering their releases this year) isn't enough to sell that system to an audience beyond diehards and children. Their pivot into mobile is admirable (chasing the cohort they lost that made the original Wii a hit), but in terms of long-term growth anyone looking to invest should hold-off until their next console (NX) shows promise beyond the mediocre niche they currently occupy.
He did a podcast episode on the Milo Yianoupoullis (I tried okay) podcast. It was...interesting. Like you said, some of it makes sense, some of it is out there. Was really engaging to listen to though.

Clearly, though my every day pair are HD650s for home/office work. Well worth the $300, but also not something I plan on ever upgrading or replacing. $200 headphones are a luxury item and, I believe, objectively expensive.

If they provide excellent sound over BT, maybe they're worth the $200 (160?), but they'd still be expensive.
That's exactly what Pony (http://www.ponylang.org/) does. It has a gc, with all the actors in the system communicating through shared memory. It uses the concept of 'capabilities' to check the owner of any given reference and disallow read or write permissions to other objects / actors.
I've noticed that both here and on reddit there's a vocal population that is really upset that this is being called an "infinite runner" because if the non-procedural and therefore not infinite nature.

It feels kind of like arguing about hacker and cracker.
Oh but you can. You can almost argue that we've settled for every other endless runner game only because it sort-of reminded us of Mario and ultimately, we've just been itching to play a Mario runner on our phone this whole time, and that's all we've ever wanted.
Fintech in Spain Has Grown Over 400% in the Past 3 Years
I would also add that as real incomes have not really increased since the 1970s the inflation in real estate has been accommodated by widespread increase in private debt, on which interest must be paid, decreasing disposable income and leading to increased insecurity.
As a marketer, thanks for saying that. Many on the technical end are dismissive of the value of marketing with 2 predominant views; 1) If its a good product the customers will come or 2) I can do that myself.

To be fair this seems to be a reducing pool last few years for some reason. And there are some god awful marketers out there.

Ask HN: Is every market saturated?
I'm in my 20s and work remotely as a software contractor, but dream of starting a business to stop trading hours for dollars. I have saved up a modest amount of money to keep my head above water for a year without working.

The only problem is, I have no idea what kind of business to start. I don't want to start a business I will lose interest in a year from now, and I'd prefer to do a business that doesn't tie me to a physical place. With these constraints in mind, every market seems really crowded. For any given vertical, there several SaaS companies clamoring for attention.

I refuse to believe that "everything's been done," and so I'm starting to think that the problem is that I'm not exposed to a whole lot of problems that have any business value. Maybe I need to find niches that have yet to be explored. Or I need to become yet another competitor.

TLDR: How do you find a market to start a business in?

We are missing a lot of context - much of which you can't supply here even if you wanted to. For example, it seems entirely plausible and not exactly rocket science that not eating the wrong foods (for a given person - what "wrong" means may vary widely and wildly depending on their context!) is better than eating it. For an example (of the example), if you eat a lot of high glycemic index foods it's not hard to guess why your blood sugar is doing better without it.

This is the problem with all those reports from people who say they are doing so much better during a fast.
Pokemon Go was a start. Mario runner - everyone expected it, of course.

BUT, I personally believe, should they decide to make it, a Nintendo Universe game will be the biggest thing to ever hit mobile. If I can create my own massive Nintendo land, with Mario and Luigi's house, tubes, Koopa Castles, goombas running around, and then there are mini games to earn "coins", etc.... I think I'd finally play a game on my phone again, the nostalgia-pull would just be too intense to resist.
Is Bluetooth less open to innovate on than the 3.5mm jack? I agree that it's important to be able to create hardware add-ons "without Apple's permission", but wouldn't most of those use cases just use Bluetooth today?

I was just having a discussion with someone last night who was complaining about executive bonuses (in health insurance specifically), and how he thought that was unfair. He then went on to describe how he's moving into government work for the high pay, low effort, and how he would try to do the same pension spiking practices that's got California in so much trouble. After all, it's not illegal.

TLDR: don't do keto if you are diabetic, for seemingly obvious reasons (that you eat virtually zero carbohydrates, the things that keep your blood sugar level). Everyone else it may work, though any highly-restrictive diet generally has a poor adherence rate, and adherence is vital to even enter a ketogenic state.

I'll agree the courage statement was a bit silly and me laugh when I watched it go down. I for one am totally ok with the headphone jack going away. I have wireless headphones and I have wired headphones I'll make it work. More often than not the wired headphones become the hassle, whether it's tangled cords or just keeping them out of the way. I'm sure there are plenty of people who use wired headphones every day but there are also plenty of people who just have this unused hole in their phone. The earpods look great but are a bit steep for me. The way they pair looks great. It's definitely an Apple product, looks nice and is convenient (and perhaps a bit pricey but not ludicrously so). Also the battery life is great (when compared to similar independent wireless earbuds) and that case is an awesome way to charge/not lose them.

Apple it obviously trying to go to wireless everything and removing cables. Now they need to make wireless charging happen. If I could set my phone down on my desk and charge it and never again have to plug something in again, that would be great.

There's orders of magnitude of difference in complexity between Bluetooth and 3.5mm jack. Also, last time I heard, you couldn't even use Bluetooth to transfer files from an iPhone to a non-Apple device, so there's that.
