Well, after Guy #1 left the company I met a former colleague of him on other company, and she told me "why you didn't call us? we would advise you to not hire this guy!" so that's where my assumption came from, you're right, there are probably people that will hide the truth just to be diplomatic.

Recent studies (http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/early/2010/01/13/ajcn.2009.... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9635993 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19364995) failed to find ill effects from saturated fats. (Trans fats are another story.)

An unhealthy diet is an unhealthy diet in any case. Saturated fat is not good for you. It's the reason you get type 2 diabetes, among other stuff. No one will tell you it's healthy.

> hormones

Still one reason less to eat meat when the alternative is free of that crap and healthier in every other way too. And there is also all the science that says it is a problem. Especially in dairy, but also in meat. We don't need it, and we (possibly) suffer from consuming it, so doing so is plain stupid when there are alternatives.

> Scientific consensus is that eating cholesterol has zero effect on cholesterol levels, since the body regulates production of it anyway.

That's not true at all. The scientific consensus seems to be that it (dietary cholesterol also called ldl cholesterol) contributes about 0.3-0.4 of what saturated fat does when it comes to raising your blood cholesterol. But the fact is that humans need to consume zero dietary cholesterol - nothing at all - and consuming it has unhealthy effects, so doing so is plain stupid health wise when their is an alternative with zero dietary cholesterol.

> True, though cows, sheep, goats, deer, etc. naturally produce B12 themselves (or more accurately, their bacteria do).

So do humans. Still not a good reason to consume humans nor livestock.

> It seems a little bit of red flag if a diet is deficient enough that you need pills to compensate, but I have no opposition to them per se. I take multi-vitamins now and then.
I didn't make a comprehensive list of meat's better-than-average nutrients (e.g. iron comes to mind). Can you get the same nutrients without meat? Yes, it's possible. On the other hand, there's a reason humans are omnivores, even if we like to pretend they're not.

You don't get the B12 from meat because of some special properties of the animals as a food source. You get it from meat because 1) the animals consumes supplements (which you can do too instead of getting it through an animal that consumed a supplement) 2) they consume poop (by accident or by choice) 3) their food is bacterially contaminated 4) they themself eat animal products where the occurrence are the same yet again.

The reason why we need a pill in 2017 if we don't eat animal products or food that is fortified (like one could argue meat is, and that lots of plant-milks are for example) is because our water and our food is sanitary compared to what livestocks and our ancestors consumed. Health wise, getting B12 from meat is highly disadvantaged compared to a vitamin pill, which is a great thing for people to consume in any case.

Indeed. This has nothing to do with hiding the authors.

There are, traditionally, two sorts of newspaper articles: the quick, half-page max Who/What/When/Where, and the longer pieces based on weeks of reporting, being exclusive etc.

The former are anonymous or have the author's initials only. It's considered an honour to get one of the latter published. Those are also written differently, allowing for more of a personal voice.

As it happens, The Economist has a strong focus on the first kind of article–only the editors get to gave fun when they add the photo captions.

Compare to The New Yorker, or Foreign Affairs, or the Rolling Stone where it just wouldn't make sense to publish articles without names.
Nope, it's shortcomings are publicly documented. It can't dogfight, maneuver, has terrible visibility, bad systems, not enough ammo in a gun it won't be able to use for years, and can't carry the most useful bombs yet. It's not even going to be fully usable for 7 more years. It's a piece of junk being kept alive by lobbyists and fighter mafia when drones are 10x more cost effective.

Haha me too. I remember a few years ago (or probably more like 15 now) I was visiting my mother and in the car from the airport she was telling me "did you hear its okay to eat eggs again?" >_< (there was a widespread link to cancer which was reversed)

Somehow we have got to the point where the'recommended daily quota' of fruit and veg is something insane like 10 a day (I can't find gov.uk stats but a lot of newspaper articles etc).

Is it so hard to understand "put shit in and you become shit"? Why does anyone need to be told?

Is it so hard to understand that you should eat good quality and varied foods? That you don't need to swear off kebabs forever but don't do them every day? That putting more in than you use makes you bigger and putting less in smaller?

Moreover, to add further context, the whole basis of Holden's effective altruism work has been around the idea that philanthropic dollars ought to be focused on charities with extremely rigorous proof behind how much they improve people's lives per dollar donated, and how much they need the money.

This isn't quite true; SCI, a charity that treats parasitic disease in the third world, is the subject of massive uncertainty and conflicting reports of effectiveness. It might turn out that it has very little impact at all. But it's still a recommended EA charity because it looks like there's a decent chance they're doing a ton of good. GW has written extensively about this.

All salmon flesh is naturally pale in color (look at their close relatives the freshwater trout).

The pink or red color you see in some wild-caught fish is from carotenoid pigments in the krill they consume (or that has been consumed by other creatures that are then consumed by the salmon).

The farm-raised fish are given the exact same pigments before they are sent to market.

There are reasons to avoid farmed fish, but the color isn't one of them.

This is revisionist BS. It was meant to do everything, yet it does everything poorly. Lousy fighter, lousy bomber, lousy ground attack plane. It's only good at being a standoff weapon, and far too expensive for that when drones can do it all better and far cheaper.
I've never had a personal tragedy like the scope of the author's, but her essay hit me nonetheless in reminding me of all the times I've avoided "tricky" topics with friends and family, and how in retrospect, this avoidance contributed to relationships drifting apart over the years. I was both happy how the author's bravery led to an eventual reconciliation, and sad thinking about relationships that I didn't prioritize enough.

Most construction in space at this point is one off, robots probably aren't quite at the point where they can have robots perform any generalized construction required. Of course I don't think we should be placing humans in the loop unless they are required.

Also a lot of the ISS work is experiments, each with their own setup and criteria.

Obviously at some point this will be solved, but there is still the point of having humans in more places than just the Earth.
Note, too, that he abruptly switches from "microplastics" to "plastics" in mid-sentence.

As far as I know, the "detrimental effects of plastics" that have been "documented" are stuff like getting caught in six-pack rings, getting intestinal clogs, etc., none of which are likely to be an issue with microplastics.

I get that, but I find that the silver lining is to find something you enjoy just as much or even more that also makes you live longer and enjoy it for a greater extend than the unhealthy thing.

5 years back, I loved BBQ rips, steak, cows milk and cows cheese, and thought I couldn't live without it. Today I still love the taste of those things, but I have stopped consuming them and have found alternatives that I like just as much or better with the added benefit that they don't kill me, which adds to me liking them even better.

Nope, that's a rumour from a French journalist that's very unlikely to be true. And note it's not ready, cause the gun doesnt work, in 4 years when it's supposed to work it won't carry enough ammo, it can't carry its planned bomb types, the helmet doesn't work and might be dangerous, and it gets dusted in any dogfight by 40 year old fighters.

There was an article on HN a couple months ago about how the DoD is considering replacing the A-10 with a turboprop-based plane.
That undoubtedly had something to do it, but it's also a fact that pigs, in particular, are prone to many diseases that can be transmitted to humans (there are some with cows too, of course, but not nearly as many).

Same thing with shellfish (also forbidden by Kosher rules). Not only do they tend to collect nasty bugs from any human sewage in the water, but they have some truly scary toxins in their own right.

None of those are an issue with modern farming and aquaculture, though.

What probably happened was that a whole village got wiped out with (say) Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning, and the priest from the next village decided that God really, really didn't want people eating oysters any more.
Still a bad user experience especially when posted on HN. I know my attention span may be a tad short, but if I have to figure out a way past a paywall (no matter how little steps) or just move on to the next link, I'll usually pick the latter.

There has to be, it's one of the few constants of the internet.

I'm saying English speakers never realize the two sounds are different until someone points it out. Of course we can hear it, the sounds are very different.

It's easy to think that the way we think about sounds is perfectly natural, except that it isn't. The reality is that it's all relative. I'm sure the tones in Chinese come naturally to you but to the rest of us it's a challenge.

As for R and L, Japanese speakers can certainly hear the difference, but it's hard for them to remember or pronounce the difference. Believe me I've tried to explain it many times, and when you try you realize the difference is more subtle than we always assumed.

Korean has more vowel sounds than English. We can hear the difference, but feel convinced that it "doesn't matter" and that "those sounds are practically the same". And it's devilishly hard for us to consistently get the sound right. And that's what R and L are like.

You make a good point about construction in space. As far as ISS work experiments, I wonder if they are as automated as they could be.

One of the odder requirements for experiments in the Shuttle was that they had to require human interaction. NASA didn't want to send a spaceship full of astronauts up to babysit fully automated experiments.
Sure, but the question wasn't "why is there a pilot?", it was "why is the pilot in the plane?" Making a judgment about sensor data could just as easily be done from elsewhere.

> (a) is pretty obvious: a bit of meat on occasion is enough to ward off any possible malnutrition. If you don't go fully vegan the risk isn't high, but neither is any negative effect the meat may have.

You can also ward off any possible malnutrition by eating completely plant-based. It's not hard. You gotta eat more varied than when you eat animal products, but that comes with a bunch of added benefits, so it's really a win-win, and even a small portion of white meat on occasion is a huge tax on the environment compared to plants, and it still comes with all the ethical drawbacks, if you are concerned about that at all.

> (b) is probably more controversial, but contrary to what a certain crowd has been hyping, it seems like the evidence against red meat is still ahead. More in regards to cancer, a little less for cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms aren't clear: Harald zur Hausen (Nobel for HPV) thinks it's viruses from undercooked red meat and only eats it well-done. Cholesterol is more of a symptom than a cause...etc.

In any case, science is clear that it's a lot more unhealthy than eating a plant-based diet. It baffles me that people focus on the "it's possible it's not as bad as they say, even though science agrees it's bad, so lets eat it", instead of the "well, there is a lot of controversy about how quickly eating animal products is gonna kill me, so lets just eat the things that don't and that also doesn't unnecessarily destroy our planet and is ethically corrupt".

To your first point, I think we've seen that robotic probes get people very excited about science, particularly when they can return high-quality photos and video.

The best-case scenario for manned space flight in our lifetime is that we go to Mars. Robot probes, on the other hand, can go to some wild places in the solar system, including places that would be lethal to a human crew. And they do so at 1% of the cost of manned missions.

I'd wager the excitement per dollar spent is higher for robot probes.
Beavers are of course the big example of a species that essentially builds infrastructure so many more places become safe and productive for them.

Another spectacular example of an animal building can be seen here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySXCdcnKBgg

Note, no that spider did not just dig himself in. He dug a hole first, then took a piece of wood, arranged surface stuff on it and then used a spider web to attach it to a "heavy" (relatively speaking) branch he dragged on top of his hole. The result is a trapdoor. And a heart attack.

Other kinds of buildings and infrastructure animals build so they can live further away are of course burrows and holes of all kinds. They protect animals that otherwise would not be able to find shelter from predators during the night (or in cases, during the day), and massively expand the areas where these animals can survive. In many cases those burrows are a conscious choice. If enough easy shelter is available they do not build burrows.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structures_built_by_animals

Termite mounds are another example of structures that can be baffling in size (the above ground portion can be as big as a house, the underground portion can be bigger than an aircraft carrier). These structures come fully loaded. They have nurseries, food storage, "farms" for other insects, entrances and exits complete with checkpoints, army barracks, contact points with water streams (quite ingenious ones I might add, you'd think that water would flow in and destroy the whole thing), internal highways, ... Some papers allude that quite a few of them even contain underground trade routes with neighboring termite camps along which they trade commodities.

Ants are well known for selectively breeding both the plants needed for their cattle, and their cattle. See:

Animals cooperate to achieve common goals. The obvious behavior that gets that is reproduction in solitary species. Hunting in packs. Trekking in packs (from wolves to birds). But I guess you'd want something more "economic" for an example. Ok, let's see. How about Weaver nests ? They're a pretty fucking direct example of building something with -and at least partially for- your neighbor.
