I went through about 2 months of pure keto earlier this year. Small disclaimer, I generally follow a "warrior" diet and intermittent fasting. I think keto gave me a similar "sharp" awareness and energy. For whatever reason, not eating, while difficult at first, provided me with even more energy and clarity in the same way keto did. Even though I continued doing fairly intense workouts 3 days a week.
I don't think they're allowed to put Android on a BB classic form factor - the screen dimensions don't scale relative to regular phones, and as far as I know, Google demands certain layouts to simplify app development.
There were several reasons for me to do it. But here is the main reason:

Local storage is not persistent. If space on your phone is scarce, it'll delete entries from local storage without notifying you (eg. http://gonehybrid.com/dont-assume-localstorage-will-always-w...). That shouldn't happen with desktop browsers since there is plenty of space available. So your data is more safe in desktop browsers.

Did you experience something else? Any suggestions on this topic?

Yotilo is not meant to be a full fledged timetracker. I'll publish a more complete project in the future with pretty good mobile- and offline-support.

Sorry, if you don't like it. I hope the reason above is understandable.

r/bitcoin also has a vendetta against Coinbase because they're for a blocksize increase. That forum is actually incredibly childish (just read the comments). You don't find the same concentration of complaints in other cryptocurrency reddits, and r/bitcoin definitely is not the only one or the most important.

This is Olaf from the writeup. I have a master list of chemicals that induce ludid dreams here:
http://www.imaginarymap.com/consciousdreaming.html

Extremely small doses of Yohimbine (~300mcg) and Mucuna Pruriens are lesser known and quite effective for me. Yohimbine is a norepinephrine agonist and Mucuna Pruriens has L-dopa and can cross the blood-brain barrier. Keep in mind it's much more important to be extremely diligent about writing down your dreams, every night.

Don't pay attention to how galantamine/yohimbine are marketed - do the research yourself.

I see a few ad hoc source recommendations, but is there a solid resource (or list of resources) surrounding this? Particularly who would benefit from this diet, good foods, what to expect from your first few weeks/long term, should it be something you do in phases, etc?
I want to like Figma but they've chosen a rather limiting way for a professional design tool, cloud-first and based on web technologies.

Surely, Figma beats Sketch for modern interface design by using retained mode rendering (although sacrificed some quality [1]) and being superior at science and engineering.

But it's such an inefficient use of resources that it will die quickly on complex projects or illustrations. Raster graphics and any processing on CPU is also a huge pain [2].

Yet it's in their power to make a proper offline app [3]. I hope they'll eventually choose this route. I also hope they won't be as greedy as Adobe.

I agree with you that a "natural" diet is not necessarily better. And I think we could engineer better food for us than the stuff we used to eat. There's some of that going on with golden rice for example.

But the vast majority of food "innovations" in wealthy countries like the US are not engineered to improve health. Mostly the goal is to save money or improve taste, and these goals can make a diet less healthy.
> tailgating a self driving car makes it pull over, everyone on the road will do it. If a honk makes it pull over, everyone on the road will do it.

Tailgating is illegal in most of the US. Same for non-emergency honking.

Those laws are never enforced, of course, which I think is a shame. Especially non-emergency honking, and especially in cities.

Hopefully assholes exploiting the conservative driving behavior of autonomous vehicles will lead to law enforcement regularly enforcing these sorts of safety&civility laws.

Has there been any more research into the long term health effects of Keto?

I tried it years ago, but found it to be more of a pain than it's worth (I seem to have better luck with intense exercise 3x per week and avoiding sugar). And it seems like tons of meat and cheese is actually bad long term, in the sense it clogs your arteries or increases cancer risk.

Atkins did not look like he was in good shape inside when he died.

It strikes me as a body hack that bypasses a lot of bodily processes evolution may have counted on as we developed. But it seems like we know a fair amount about the chemistry and processes involved, so I'm curious.

Also, "sales" on these new developments often turn out to mean "off-plan Asian investor put down a £20k deposit which they can and will walk away from in a heartbeat if the market looks like turning, because what are you going to do about it?". In some ways they behave more like options for property speculation.

A few thoughts:
Does 'organic' regulation permit the use of paraffin coatings? I imagine the prolific use of paraffin in conventional produce could make rinsing away pesticides quite difficult.

Copper sulfate is one of the most common organic pesticides that I am aware of. It's certainly nothing to gorge on. However, when handled safely, it may be preferable to directly engineering a pesticide into the plant.

On the organic farms I tended, there was very minimal use of pesticides or herbicides. The inherent diversity of the farm allowed the temporary discontinuation (rather than synthetic maintenance) of problematic plants, and either experimentation with others, or the continuation of what was presently working. For weed control we relied on hay and profuse weeding by hand, some of the weeds being edible (amaranth) and providing snacks during the process, at least for me ;) Personally, I prefer this method to glyphosate.

The term "natural" may not be synonymous with "healthy and safe", but it does functionally delimit e.g. Roundup from acetic acid.

There's a paid option I think (I wouldn't consider that for myself, but stumbled upon it while searching for a way to solve this issue). But I'd also argue that

a) you're paying, if someone offers a free service that is shoving ads in your face all the time, tries to hijack your home page and lures you to install browser toolbars and whatnot. It isn't free, you generate revenue.

b) no service, free or not, should cause you to lose access to your data. While you might mumble "Backups! You should have those" that .. isn't exactly a decent reaction or something to tell a 70+ person either. Plus, the email address is an online identity. Tied into other services (password recovery there is now broken). Causing loss of future data, backups or not. If you provide a service like that, you should provide excellent ways to regain access to that in my world.

c) I'd probably (well, not me. I'd make her..) pay for a ticket. Given the option..

That's why I disagree with Elon Musk and others who say "autonomous driving systems only need to be like 50% or 2x better than the average driver".

What if I drive 5x better and safer than the "average driver"? Doesn't that mean that these cars would now put me in more danger than I would normally be in with my own manual car?

Self-driving cars should be 10x better than the best (as in safest by number of incidents, say, per decade) drivers on Earth. Then I could begin trusting them ... if only there wasn't that pesky security issue, too, with self-driving cars getting hacked and then driving you off the highway at 70mph and killing you.

We see Teslas getting remotely hacked. If that happens with Tesla, a Silicon Valley car company with a lot of hired top tech talent, how can we ever trust a company like GM or Volkswagen to build safe self-driving cars?
True, technology doesn't necessarily make a person better, but it does make being a good person easier and more probable, and in a large population that probability makes all the difference.

Unfortunately, in countries like China, your identity is your cellphone number. Almost all of the internet giants (QQ, WeChat, Weibo, Taobao, AliPay, Online Banking apps) predominantly use SMS to authenticate user login and/or as a 2FA step.

As a result, identity thefts and telecommunications frauds are very common. Sad state of reality.

Please don't post like this to HN. Your comment isn't great to begin with (it veers away from substantive discussion into a classic flamewar topic and, if you think about it, celebrity gossip), but the sweeping personal denunciation thing is just ugly.

This holds even if we assume you're correct (though: "nothing more"? you're talking about a human being) because it isn't about Meyer, but our own culture at HN.
When distro-packaged content is in /bin and /sbin (and /lib, /usr etc), you can't easily have those 4 directories in a single image that you can atomically handle (upgrade, snapshot, mount, share, etc) and you must have them together on the /.

That's why Android has /system, and Linux has /usr now.
(https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/TheCaseFor...).

Ideally, and we are getting there, / should be tmpfs/rootfs, it's populated with the needed structure by the initramfs, the distro is mounted on /usr (readonly squashfs perhaps?), user data is /home, system data is /var, configuration is /etc. And the system should boot with empty /home /var and /etc ideally. Soon...
You still need to be eating at some kind of deficit if you were expecting weight loss.

The reason keto works so well is that it completely suppresses your appetite and you end up eating at a deficit naturally.
Elon actually had to state this point explicitly on the livestream because it seems to be not getting to people - SpaceX is not in business of colonizing Mars, it's in business of getting colonizers to Mars (and back). I.e. transportation infrastructure. Elon leaves setting up a colony to other people. That's why he keeps repeating that the idea is to drop the price per person to ~$200k - he seems to believe that if he can pull this off, the rest will be done by others.
Flex Takes a Silicon Valley Approach to Reducing Supply Chain Risk
In addition to Myers Briggs, I have found StrengthsFinder [1] to be very helpful. I am dyslexic and ADD. Also ENTJ. I would love to be a specialist but all my life I have found out I am better as being a generalist with some lite specialist skills.

At 62 years old now, being a generalist that manages a few developers and coaching a scrum team is a perfect fit. I do get to write code but by HN standards, my code is pretty simple. It does work and most of it runs 24x7 without failure.

I disagree. I know one of the former members, and I can assure that his peers in development think very highly of him. It was upper management that did not want to do foot the bill.

You went through the slides but didn't watch the video? If so, you can't really make the argument that it isn't interesting.
Investing in treasuries IS investing in the US, just in a very safe low risk way. That is the value of the USD, at least, that you can always "save it" with the US gov (who is a dependable debtor of last resort). This is super good for the USD, and part of the reason interest rates are so low these days (all that extra Chinese money pushed down rates). With the Chinese stopping to use treasuries so much, one would guess that rates would pop up eventually.
I'm becoming more and more convinced that these magical guru stories are the south Asian equivalent of the National Enquirer, except more aimed towards gullible foreigners.
JavaScript Speech Recognition
Reread my comment if you think I didn't understand dual criminality. What I'm pointing out is that the concept needs to be extended or augmented for the modern networked world.

Previously it was adequate because one basically had to visit a jurisdiction to commit a crime there. But taking a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pornography_by_region, surely you wouldn't think it just for someone to be extradited from Iceland to Sudan for setting up a pornographic website.

I started off this thread explicitly saying that I reject the idea of communication creating a legal nexus. Borders and physical locations are a strong Schelling point for determining jurisdiction. I'm referencing free speech for its aspect of "what is said cannot hurt me", which is another Shelling point.

And the consequences should be users choosing another company and they don't. So the core problem are users.
Yup, I always do this when writing JavaScript or other languages that allow prefix single statements with or without braces. Otherwise I use braces if the statement is too long to fit in the editor w/o forcing you to scroll. Perl only allows postfixed single statements w/o braces, so you're safe:

say "yes" if $condition;
if ($condition) {
say "yes";
$affirmative++;
}
This was pretty mind blowing to me to see that speech recognition is built right into the browser now.

Ridicule.
Depends, for a first time buying couple it's a 10% deposit (plus £45k for stamp duty) and then a combined salary of £225k (assuming 4x multiplier on combined income). Sure ~£110k/year is firmly in the top quartile of dev salaries, but not out of the question.

More than likely a couple who are already earning ~£70k/year each probably already have some equity in a current home, so a £1m home might not be much of a step up for them.
As a designer, I find it genuinely perplexing and distressing that UI design apps continue to get created that don't support automatic layouts. Dragging and nudging things around is horrendously inefficient. The one app that does this – Antetype – has been almost entirely ignored by the design community.

Here's an example: http://bendansby.com/antetype.gif
I tend to think of it as a serialising format with nice properties rather than a base data model. Tool support sucks for most languages right now and there is very few users who'd know what to do with a SPARQL endpoint , further there is no out of the box UI or UI toolkit in the open source space.

DBopedia and other serious projects offer endpoints. And the nature of the format means one can federate queries across them . DBopedia is currently the defacto ontology/ starting point.
I help companies realize new revenue paths, and to execute on new products quickly. Specifically, I figure out the 20% of engineering effort to get to the initial results. I often skip much of the initial "Product Manager-y" tasks, and build quickly with a very small team, to be in a position to sell - often based on intuition. I realized years ago that I couldn't compete in "traditional domains" of engineering - my interests in everything meant I could not become a master, traditional engineer. That career path was out. I can't compete with INTJ or ISTJ (deeply focused personalities) which is what many software engineers classify as - but I can outcompete on innovation and new revenue.
> Joe is not going to let the nerds create a huge hassle for everyone too poor / not wanting a self driving car.

CalRobert's point is that aggressive driving isn't rational, because cooperative behavior at lower speeds often increases total throughput in congested areas. That point is completely independent of autonomous vs. non-autonomous driving.

> This is a social issue.

Social issues aren't insurmountable. Driving behavior can be changed. For example, I've noticed over the past few years that people tend to be far more likely to behave in the optimal way when merging at a closed lane when there's a sign explaining that everyone should use both lanes until the last moment.

Hospital mortality rates in each department are also lowest when there's a conference for that specialty nearby. The doctors all go there, few/no routine surgeries are done that day, far fewer people die.
I read through the emails, and I believe I'm mistaken: nothing is specified on whether or not OpenMW is a cleanroom implementation.

My point stands, though. If Bethesda can show that OpenMW was in any way borne from reverse-engineering their engine code, and that their code was patented, then they would have an IP claim against OpenMW.

I remember when the "new" Dodge trucks came out in the 1994. They were "ugly" according to most people, but Dodge/Chrysler found that 10% of the people loved them. That was enough to make a bunch of money. I think that a quality keyboard on a phone would be similar.

The problem is that for some reason most companies think they have to be growing tremendously or it's not worth being in business. You can make really good money on a niche - but I guess it's not enough for the current BB executives.

I'd never heard of Augé until you mentioned him.

I wonder how much of this is cultural/emotional.

I'm ethnically Indian, and grew up with white rice as by far the dominant carb in my diet. To this day, I'm not particularly fond of bread (though I like crusty, soft-crumbed bread like french baguettes from time to time). However, if I go more than a week without a rice based dish, I crave it on a visceral level.
I was one of the remote hires brought on through the first Bitcoin SAT on Reddit. I recall completing the test and thinking "well, that was fun, but there's no way I aced it," particularly because one of the questions, I was pretty sure, was a trick meant to see how you'd handle not coming up with an answer.

To my surprise, a few days later Olaf emailed me and asked whether I could meet him on Skype. The interview lasted for around an hour and we found a lot in common (Olaf studied sociology and I studied anthropology, we're both rock climbers, and, of course, massive crypto nerds), and toward the end he asked whether I was okay with working support. The quote's not mine, but I answered "when you're asked to join a rocket ship, you don't ask where you sit."

A few days passed and Barry Kwok contacted me to make it official. I joined the team on November 1st, 2013. Those early days were wild, even from North Carolina where I lived. Bitcoin's price was soaring and the users (and tickets) were pouring in.

The rate at which Olaf's team became acclimated, with so few existing resources, is a testament to his leadership and their outstanding caliber, and something I'll never forget. You really had the feeling that you were "a part of something big," surrounded by talented and inspiring minds.

It was a wonderful experience in my life, but one that I don't talk about very often and haven't posted about until now. All the best to Olaf in his continued adventures: no matter the route, I'm sure he'll send it.
