Go ahead and link to those blogs... otherwise it sort of sounds like you are just making baseless assertions. My experiences seem to be the exact opposite of yours. I wonder if its a regional thing? I am in the south. "racist", "rural" and "republican" are almost synonyms from what I have seen.
I have not had this experience, so my advice is somewhat theoretical.

How is your relationship with your management? Can you tell them, "Look, I'm an R&D person, not a manager. You need to find someone else to manage this, who actually knows how to manage stuff, and let me get back to my real work." Would they listen if you said something like that?
I love the interface of Google flights, but I can usually find cheaper tickets elsewhere (usually on skyscanner). I've no idea how ticket pricing works and why one site can be so much cheaper than others, but skyscanner is usually 15-20% cheaper on international flights for me.
Every airline does this. A fuel estimation program I re-wrote in 1991 or so had a whole bunch of tables and formulas related to correcting for the effect of the jetstream on fuel estimates, you'd have to do this otherwise when you're going against the jetstream you're going to simply run out of fuel before you reach your primary.
> I could not vote for either of the two major party candidates

That's the worst part of this election. I really dislike HRC. Her alleged crimes to me are much more significant than even the rape allegations against Trump. They affect more people, and they move our country in the direction of a corporate oligarchy.

But my alternative is Trump? Sexist, racist, and has unresolved sexual assault allegations against him? That's who you want me to vote for to keep HRC out of office?

Holy shit!

Big winners of this election cycle:

Trump - If he wins, it's big. If he loses his brand is immensely toxic and no business/brand will want to do business with him. He'll have to go the Glenn Beck route and create his own media network and try to sustain and leverage the alt-right movement.

Alex Jones - Getting a lot more mainstream penetration in my view. He'll be selling a lot more seeds and prepper gear.

Julian Assange - Got a new lease on life after he started fading from relevance, especially after Snowden outscooped anything Wikileaks did.
Sorry, you probably wanted to make a point but it makes no sense. Nobody said free speech requires to force anybody to read anything, and certainly Thiel's donation did not force anybody to do anything. Well, except for the obvjous thing of all citizens being forced to accept whoever is elected president, but that's the question of legitimacy of government which Thiel has nothing to do with.
I think the article actually does highlight a valid growing trend away from industrial processed foods and towards getting closer to the source for natural foods.

The meal replacement industry seems to be large enough to support this product and others, but it's still a niche, overall. It's fighting against a prevailing trend towards spending more time on food and not less, and understanding more about where our food comes from and how it's produced.
So why are people using server side react then? Is it any faster client side, because that would also be very slow?

That would be nice. Are you a library or framework developer?
I would argue that the distinction is actually a good thing. If you're working with a reasonably well-designed library, then the fact that something is a method instead of a property tells you it might be doing some serious (or just slow) work. Whereas in Java calling getX() might do just about anything.

And if the implementation of a C# property changes in any of the ways that would make it a method, that probably deserves to be surfaced as a breaking change in the API. That's a feature, not a bug. eg, I would certainly want to know if the implementation of a property was changed from a field access to a network call.

Remember that if you are trusting the cert itself this is irrelevant because you aren't verifying the chain (which is the part using the SHA1 hash). I presume this is what most embedded devices do. But yes, if you imported a SHA1 root you should probably consider distrusting it.

This claim is based on what exactly?

True but why you mention it here? Surely neither Thiel nor anybody here advocated such point of view. So who you are arguing with?
They're coming on thick and strong with attempts to discredit the source, rather than deny the authenticity of the material.

Ironically, the former actually serves as an authentication of the material itself.

As Tyrion Lannister would say, "when you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say".

Edit: to clear up confusion, by 'source' I mean wikileaks and Julian Asssange, how it seems they're pulling out all the stops to try and discredit him, with 'they' being whoever is afraid of what he has to leak.
The article makes a very simple point: some things are not worth disrupting - as in fundamentally changing/optimizing/modernizing - and sometime the disruption can make things much worse. Food is an example of that. The 50-80s saw huge disruption of the food business and it had dramatically bad side effects (e.g., obesity in the US). Perpetuating that today doesn't sound like a great benefit to society.

I believe it's a worthwhile subject, simply illustrated by the article. The overwhelming "The author doesn't get the point of Soylent" reaction here tells me that most people actually don't get the gist of the article itself: it's not about Soylent in particular, it's about (food) disruption.

I think you could describe the systems that google/fb use internally as paas despite not being externally facing - they have internal teams supporting a platform that then hosts apps and services from 100s-1000s of teams. I know what you mean about control but things like kubernetes were developed for Google's internal paas so they do kind of have control despite the level of abstraction.

For us normal people at more human levels of scale - I agree its wise to be skeptical - serve your users in the simplest manner and don't get sucked into HN hype. Its easy to get an infrastructure inferiority complex :)

I'm sure the same could be said for a number of disabilities. The fact that you've compared an essentially unstudied liquid diet with indoor plumbing, and all other sources of food to hauling water, makes feel somewhat vindicated in my assessment. Not happy about it though, because it implies a kind of predatory relationship between Soylent marketing, and their intended demographic.

I can't tell you how few people I hear trumpeting it as a meal replacement now and then, vs. those who seem to have an extreme difficulty either with food, or food prep.

Obviously you need to have a heart to heart conversation with your boss about the personal toll that this is taking on you and that you need to return to your first love, that is R&D.

Don't wait until you are so frustrated that you have your resignation letter already written. Start the conversation now if you haven't already. Reassure the boss that this doesn't need to happen overnight but that it does need to happen within X months. Otherwise you might get a combination of praise, bonuses and guilt that just keeps stringing you along in the same position for a couple more years.

How to minimize risk for the company while releasing you to do what you really enjoy?

My first thought is to groom someone to be the product manager. Ideally, one of the 3 engineers you are already managing. If none of them have desire & ability to PM the software then start the process to hire a replacement from elsewhere in the company or from outside.

Start to prepare for a smooth hand-off. Make sure the house is in order:

[1]solid documentation

[2] version control

[3] bug tracking and resolution

[4] comprehensive user lists

[5] mapping out of business and technical stakeholders

[6] dependencies - data, software, systems and operations

[7] engineer duties and strengths documented

[8] features both committed road map and wish list

When you feel like the house is in order start pushing the transition hard from your side to move it along. Because at that point, you can say with good conscience, "everything is ready for a smooth hand-off and I have done everything I can to minimize risk."

Finally, your boss and maybe her boss needs to understand how you will continue to contribute to the growth and efficiency of the company. You need to create a narrative that emphasizes how much value was also created by your R&D work and will be created once again when your life is not consumed by this one project that turned into a product.

Hope you are able to make the transition that you need without having to quit the company.

Your consequences of processed food does not seem to be actually be anything inherent to processed food. If there is some chemical (likely fiber in your examples?) that is causing one form of food to have a different effect from another, then that can be artificially processed into the food as well.

The real issue with processed foods tends to be that their goal is isolating the tasty by removing the healthy. If you actually set up the correct goals, then there is no particular reason why "natural foods" could not have their effects artificially replicated or improved upon.

This hits close to an idea that has been floating around for a while. Basically, the Apportionment Act of 1911 needs to be replaced, with something that sets the number of representatives equal to some population number (say one representative for every 10k people. One of the suggestions is to set that number equal to the population of the smallest district. The idea gains a lot of support when its presented that people who live in certain states have "more" access to congress because their representatives represent fewer people. I'm to lazy to dig up the actual numbers but IIRC there is something like a 40% difference between the most populous district and the least. I've also wondered if massively increasing the number of representatives (say a few thousand) would help to remove some of the special interests, as it would take a small army to wine/dine the entire congress. Except, that I guess some of these interests basically have infinite money and could actually afford that army.

Not to invalidate your argument, but clearly people fast for much longer than 4 days without food, for example "At the age of 74 and already slight of build, Mahatma Gandhi, the famous nonviolent campaigner for India's independence, survived 21 days of total starvation while only allowing himself sips of water."

You could do this in Java, but therein lies the cultural problem: From my experience, the Java world is so accustomed to get/set method doing nothing other than getting and setting the value that any attempt to do more (validation included) is seen as "surprising" and is frowned upon in code reviews. I'd typically have to create a special "setWIthValidation" method to please people...

I would agree with you except for one thing: money is political power under our current system. If someone is allowed to use their market power to influence our democracy, it is perfectly valid to use market power to oppose that influence. It is a double edged sword.

Your solution seems to be invest more time into learning how to grocery shop and prep food better, which supports the OPs argument that it is a real investment to make. Whereas the whole point of Soylent is the chance to skip this whole time investment and optimization process.

Some people would rather trade the highs/lows of grocery shopping and cooking for simple, healthy meals, but mostly bland meals. I don't think Soylent is the answer for everyone, it's a niche the same way Whole Foods is a niche. But they do have a real value prop that is easily overlooked if you only look at the food part of it, instead of all of the other processes around it.
>Also, AirBnB doesn't only compete with hotels... a lot of the market share in my country (Uruguay) was actually taken from real estate agencies for short-term vacation rentals, not hotels.

That's not market elasticity though. That's shifting from one booking agency to another. When my family rented a vacation home we used various small vacation home services. I have no doubt we'd consider using AirBnB today if we still had the place.

I don't doubt that lower prices, where they exist, make a difference at the margins. I'm just skeptical that the effect is big. And, as the business traveler that I am most of the time, I mostly want predictability and a 24-hour desk from a hotel.

Of course it's not perfect. Could you do better by meticulously cataloging your intake, painstakingly measuring everything you cook, and going the extra mile to determine the exact source of all your food? Yeah probably. My time is worth more to me than that. I would rather waste my time on things other than making sure I am perfectly nourished.

How long had humans gone eating crude bread, grilled meat, and stuff they found on the ground? Now we have processing techniques more advanced than 'Make it hot' and we live longer now than ever before.

At least Soylent, as a company, is very up-front with their goals and concerns. They just sent me a message telling me not to eat the Soylent Bars I bought (Jokes on them I already threw them out because they are gross)

Like you hinted, this all seems like a valid argument to be made against any given modern diet. I can't imagine that even the most careful and educated person alive is eating meals that resemble what our ancestors had experience with for thousands of years.

So we can't necessarily rely on that, and we're waiting on feedback from fields you claim are in their infancy. It could be that a long-term soylent diet turns out to make you infertile, or that it repairs your body 1.5 times faster. I bet that the truth is probably somewhere closer to neutral, and I don't think that's as crazy a risk as you're making it out to be.
