First of, congratulations for losing significant weight, albeit in a non-conventional way. Eating two pounds of bacon a day takes a lot of determination.

I am glad it worked for you. However, most people need to start with a basic rule and go from there.

I think it is mainly calories in / calories out. While there seems to be evidence that the source of calories and diet composition do play some role in weight loss, that is what I would call "expert mode".

You can't exercise away a bad diet. One hour of very hard cardio, can burn up to 1,000 calories, depending on your weight and exercise intensity. A big mac meal with a medium drink and fries is more or less that as well. Exercise is great, and is an excellent supplement to a diet, but if you don't watch what you eat, it will be difficult to exercise away the extra calories.

The base rule is you have to watch what you eat. You can play with the composition, but concentrate on the calories. I can not say this enough. If you have extra pounds that you want to lose, and you have not yet found a way to do it, stay away from gimmicks.

Losing weight involves eating less, not eating more.

Regarding different types of calories, it's important to note that fats, proteins, sugars, and carbohydrates are digested in different ways. If you ingest 500 calories worth of sugar your body will be able to use almost all of that for its energy needs. Meanwhile, digesting protein is more complicated, and your body will be able to extract fewer of those 500 calories for its own needs.
I'd recommend selecting a DAW and learning it. Really learn it. We have countless great tools in music production available - it mostly comes down to how well you can handle them.

Personally, I love and recommend Ableton Live which features an easy to use interface, workflow, lots of options for experimentation and extensions, great and large community as well. Good choice for beginners and experts alike. Plus, with Ableton Push you have the option to get an excellent hardware controller that is tailored to your DAW, but it isn't something you'd need from the start.

Alternatively, you almost can't beat Logic on price considering its features and performance. I'd say it is more complex, but that's subjective.

Both Logic and Live (Suite version) offer a complete solution, including high quality instruments, synths and effects.

Hardware is optional, but a simple midi keyboard for less than a 100 bucks will help a lot.

Certainly better than bullying cURL into accepting their idiotic URL specification.

Especially considering what they want would rather be specified as a parser for generating URLs from user input, and not to simply demand every tool interacting with URLs to be able to parse malformed URLs.
There is Kademlia, but it still needs to be improved to take geo distance and link quality into account, for it to work on a global scale.
There is a residency requirement. But no requirement that during that residency period you actually need to be working or otherwise "contributing" to the system.
Please read my comment more carefully. My argument has nothing to do with safety, and flippant replies are quite rude.

> I believe that the rules of Rust not only give you exceptional performance without memory issues (as this article tries to demonstrate), but also that its rules engender a higher degree of correctness and 'well-factoredness' than most languages. I believe Rust is an excellent language for writing applications at every level of the stack when 'craftmanship' matters.
Our Service/Consulting firm's core focus is UI/UX Designs, and Frontend Engineering. We tend to get quite a bit of incoming work that are not in our core focus. We started working with other partners. We either know these partners or are introduced to us. We interview them, talked to them, worked with them (vetting them).

Our clients know that they can go on a vacation while we work on their projects. They wanted that same experience while working with the partners that we introduced. So, we end up handling the client's project and make sure it gets done via these partners.

Work Sigma is borne out of this patterns, and process that we followed. We want to grow this, formalize it, and be able to provide a good service to clients and make them happy. One of the marketing taglines that we tossed around our team is, "Agency in the Cloud".

> Point is, it doesn't let me choose. It arbitrarily selects one version of an album which is not necessarily the one I want.

This is not spotify's fault btw. Some bands have original record and the remastered version available. It is decided by the label/band.

Some bands think the original version is flawed, hence why they remastered it. Others might have been forced a remaster on them by label, or simply know that fans value both versions.
Well it might be that businesses don't want to invest in anything with a high learning curve if there are tools with a low learning curve that can solve the same problem.
Mesh networks have some practical limits they are unlikely to overcome, like crossing an ocean, or any sufficiently large unpopulated area. You do need expensive dedicated infrastructure for that.
> For line of business apps, it is inaccessible and the safety dial is turned up too far.

The dial is certainly turned up further than most businesses are accustomed to. But if that business is doing something involving my credit card number, I think the threshold of "too far" ought to be somewhere beyond Rust.

I hope that Rust does get some substantial adoption for line of business apps, if only to give us some data on how much it really costs to deal with your buffer overflows in advance, instead of suffering the embarrassing outages and hacks that make the national news.
Devices as designers

Sooner or later (IoT, AR, VR) we will have to let devices (AI) to assembly the final user interface.

I imagine something like this: we designers / developers / UI architects are creating plenty of interconnectable components describing our idea of a product covering all scenarios and use cases.

Then the device will asemmbly the final UI based on the individual user, and the device capability.

For example a watch will display something different than a large digital billboard on a skyscraper.

And everyone of us will see a different design each time we look at a display, based on our individual digital history (Data mining).

The point is predetermined design must be advanced to on-demand, context based, liquid design. We let the big picture be assembled by third party, we focus only to smaller components.

Something like

Other languages can definitely do it:

@y = y
end

def y

end
end

y = Y.new
x = X.new(y: y)
puts x.y

Yes!

It's become a deliberate strategy of mine to set the subgoal complexity in my personal projects such that I get a small "yes! it works!"-rush about once per week or so. It's what keeps me going on larger projects, even if occasionally some part takes longer to do.
I'm going to say the obvious: VR. Really, there will be an explosion in VR sells and when it happens it will be too late to be there. I don't think it's going to be a fluff this time, we just need the right killer application and I know what's going to be.
The article is not about returning a reference to a struct member, its about returning a reference to something on the stack rather than heap.
Indeed! I don't believe that there are tools with a lower learning curve that solve the same problem Rust does - in particular my belief is the way that Rust is able to perform deep type analysis on imperative code (which is really what the dreaded borrow checker is all about) enables proficient users to write well-factored systems with a high degree of confidence in their correctness.

If you want to onboard people to your code base with no familiarity with the language or your system and have them be 'productive' (for some definition of productive) within the week, Rust is probably not the right choice for you. In my experience projects for which that is a high priority (and the languages which enable them) also deal with a great amount of technical debt.
Sure, extremely motivated individuals or governments might do that. But I'd still rate a distribution by it's default security settings. Being secure by default is important if you are shipping to thousands of users.
Over in Australia, "social security" is merely the technical name for all of the government welfare programs handled by the Department of Human Services, including Age Pension, Youth Allowance (study benefits), Newstart Allowance (unemployment benefits), Disability Support Pension and so on and so forth. No-one really uses the term "social security" unless you're reading the legislation. With no further qualification, "the pension" means the Age Pension.

What we call "super" you'd call KiwiSaver, except over here it's mandatory. I suspect the NZ use of the term "superannuation" is probably closer to the original/traditional use of the term.
It's probably more a case that safety is critically important, but most LOB apps do not have particularly strict performance requirements.

That is broadly true -- used houses have negative value here in Japan, as you need to first tear the thing down so that you can build whatever it is that you want.

In Japan, things shake. A lot. Earthquake damage adds up pretty quickly, and is stupidly expensive to engineer against, so most houses are built with an expected lifespan of probably somewhere around 50 years.

They're certainly safe, but there is a strong expectation that a family will live there until the kids move out and the parents retire.

Highrises are economically preferable for a number of reasons. Japan has both an excellent rail transit network and sane zoning laws. So you end up with a cluster of highrises around a train station, where the bottom 1-3 levels are devoted to shopping, recreation, and everything else that you would see in a typical shopping mall.

Life revolves around the rail network, at least in Tokyo. You don't as much go from the Ikebukuro Ward to the Shinjuku Ward as you go from Home to Ikebukuro Station to Shinjuku Station to Where It Is You Want To Go.

I don't see this ever happening in the US, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Personally, I would much prefer a larger number of slightly smaller cities, with companies either going fully-remote, or establishing a federated group of (drastically cheaper) offices in multiple cities. You end up with a lot more local flavor, but without the SF or NYC rents.

Perhaps more relevantly, we can talk about the relative sizes of the sets of invalid Rust programs that rustc will fail to reject, and invalid C programs that gcc will fail to reject. The halting problem tells us that neither set is empty, but there's still a lot of room for differentiation.

(Actually, upon further thought, it may be that rustc rejects all invalid Rust programs and some valid ones. gcc certainly accepts some invalid C programs.)
That sounds like a good idea, but don't underestimate just how complex law and tax is in each country. You need hundreds of lawyers to sift through this. There are so many law and accounting consultants for a reason.

The beginning of the article linked says "if you usually consume 2,500 calories a day and then cut back to 1,600 calories, you’re going to lose weight from that 900-calorie daily deficit — even if all you ate was potato chips. But you won’t be healthy and you most likely won’t be able to keep the pounds off."

"the average American STEM college student spends the first few years of undergrad catching up to the level of a good but not great high school junior in the Soviet Union."

That is because colleges in America do the job of professional high schools in the former Soviet Union. when you count in those too (e.g. not just kids meant to go to university), average math levels gets real bad.

American students dont to that badly on an international tests, not compared with former Soviet Union. America has bigger variety - best juniors do real good and worst one real bad. Former Soviet Union tends to even things out and sort of kill a lot of talent.

"Better", but similar, would be to move to OS with the Object Capability model. Applications don't get access-by-default with security bolted on afterward, they get access to the objects they're initially granted and no way whatsoever to access anything beyond that.

Sadly that's a huge change in programming and security model for most and wouldn't be an easy change to make.
Looks cool. Time travelling.
The meaning of that rule is generally "if you consume less calories than you use, it is physically impossible not to lose weight". Which is definitely true.

You can eat more than you use and not gain weight if you are not metabolising the food efficiently, but you can't eat less than you use and not lose weight. The former is limited by how badly you are able to mess up your body, the latter is limited by the fundamental laws of physics.

If you're at a calorie deficit, you will lose weight no matter what you're eating or what state your body is in.
Your bill won't change. It's the companies that want to offer things on the internet that will have to pay a premium. The cable companies can now tax every little startup as well as big companies. It means only well funded companies will be able to offer things online.
Does anybody know how many days it would take from when a critical security bug is discovered in Windows and assuming that the fix is just a few lines of code and not a component rewrite and marketing is not in the way, I am wondering how many steps are from when a fix is created until is released.(I imagine that there may some QA and some managers that need to approve it but I have no idea)
Coin sorting via weight or size would also be cool.
This reminded me of the book "How We Got To Now" by Steven Johnson. Really interesting book on how development in certain fields enabled other innovations ("adjacent possible"). Really well written and super interesting book! Also, bonus points for the last chapter on Ada Lovelace, and what a visionary she was in terms of what a computer could do.

My rough approximation is that the difference between a sound type system and an unsound type system is that a sound system rejects some valid programs and unsound system accepts some invalid ones.
You seem to have missed the point of the remark. It isn't about technical knowledge, it is about differing priorities.
Yes, because there's multiple valid ways to format coinbase transactions and there's a few bits worth of margin in the timestamps that you can change.
In the Google SRE book they say that if a service has reliability much better than the stated SLO they artificially introduce errors to get closer to the error budget.

This is to prevent over-reliance on the measured SLO rather than the stated SLO in upstream services.
I think this is a wrong question, or at least oversimplified view. The real recipe is to be highly qualified on whatever you do and ready to catch an opportunity and ride on an emerging trend. Today the buzzwords are about security, a few years ago it was about services for selfies of teens. On a larger scale there is already biotech bubble and emerging AI bubble, etc.

Basically, the strategy should be to follow the money (the demand) and to love what you do (be above average). This, it seems, the most probable way to get noticed, to get funding (for abilities) and to succeed. The markets are stochastic.

For example, if you ask yourself, how come that such piles of Java crap as Hadoop came to be so popular, the answer would be that the biotech industry has almost unlimited hot money that time and huge demand for big data processing tools, so even such poorly designed and implemented by amateurs crap would be a good-enough tool.

Suppose, I would like to make a similar tool, order of magnitude less wasteful, based on ideas from Plan9, Erlang, based on ZFS, etc, in other works, do it the right way, would I get any funding? No, because there is no real demand for quality solution when a crappy one is OK. There are exceptions, of course, how, for example, nginx became a well-crafted improvement over apache, but this is indeed an exception.

So, go to the valley and keep looking. There, it seems, no other way. The principle is that there must be a strong demand backed by big money (Wall Street investors), so even a half-backed result could be easily sold and re-used to return investments and even make some profit.
Sounds like you had a very rare experience with a few H1B immigrants, but I would hold off on making a broader conclusion about a vast country like Russia, each state sized entity is a country unto itself, similar to our states. Education varies (as I saw when hosting many exchange students) and some parts (Kazakhstan) were much better off post-USSR as they became fully autonomous.
This is what happens all the time when calories in/calories out comes up, it becomes an exercise in pedantry. "It's just calories in/calories out" is not read by any normal person to mean "I should just cut my calorie intake by 500 for the day, and then drink that as olive oil 'cause that's easier to measure" It's there to convey "you can still eat french fries: just not as many."
Maybe I'm not rational but I'm much more worried about Microsoft having access to my data than some random "Russian" hacker.
I doubt it. It is possible but I doubt it.
And once again, i stay my case in the fact that "higher degree of correctness and well-factoredness" is probably not rewarded at all. Which means that the system do not push people to move to something that make these factors better.

Performance is not one either.

And i am not saying it is good. I strongly support your case. But the thing is, these factors do not matters for most business out there.
That's a fantastic way or working, more companies should do it!
Another one for grape sorting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AamACDnwRts

You feed the whole grape clusters, machine remove each individual berry from stem and then rejects all the unripe/damaged berries and little debris. All in speed of many tons per hour.

All of those are incredible machines, I wish I can buy it for my winery, but even small machines costs something like mid sized house.
Yes, that does not exactly strike me as a rational stance to take. Are you actually more worried about Microsoft blackmailing you about those photos from 4 years ago?

It took too long to go superscalar, pipelining was a bit of an afterthought, they _should_ have done more with the Apple contract. Because they didn't this meant Apple moved on to PowerPC and the bottom fell out of the 68k market.
