Regularity is one of the most important reasons about why Italians are - in general - pretty slim.

- Coffee or milk in the morning (or both) and cookie (optional).

- Morning: nothing.

- Lunch (1pm to 2pm): Most important meal of the day. Eat carbs AND proteins. And perhaps a dessert.

- Afternoon: nothing. If you are a kid: something sweet (4pm).

- Dinner (8pm to 9pm): something light, bread, cheese, vegetables, fruits. No need for complicated stuff.

And here you go. You will stay slim, I promise. This site use the same idea: regularity helps a lot.
> Key difference is that agriculture is a closed cycle, animals produce a lot of green house gas, but it's gas that's already a part of our ecosystem.

How is it a closed cycle? They require a lot of food and water to be grown, all of which has its own greenhouse gas cost to produce, and then they fart methane while they're alive and require more fuel to process/transport. All the while the world demand for meat is increasing pretty quickly, right?

There’re important differences.

When you just burn a forest, you release carbon that was in the atmosphere a few years or decades ago. Those trees would die eventually, and most of the carbon would go to the atmosphere anyway.

When you dry a swamp and burn a peat bog, you release carbon that was in the atmosphere centuries ago. Under normal circumstances, that carbon would stay underground for millennia.

Holy cringey buzzword mashup Batman! Sounds like the market appeal here is for the vaccine-denier crowd. I don't think many people here would agree with "archaic values" being an innately good thing. I read that sentence and I can only think of the short, brutal lives human beings experienced during the era of tribalism. Not of something holistic and connecting.

I'm also a bit amused that you say you chose Costa Rica for it's "lack of a standing military". I worry that might be interpreted in a less-than-positive way by the government there.

I find google.com is more broken on Chrome than in Firefox. In firefox, it just just annoying moves the search field as you start type. In chrome you are not allowed to use it at all. Instead it forces you to use the location bar.

Sometimes the location bar does a Google search. Sometimes it goes to the URL you type in. Sometimes, other things happen. Occasionally the thing that actually happens is the thing you wanted.

No worries, I'm using a loose definition of 'physicist' - anyone knowing about physics is fine :)

Thanks for your contribution; as I mentioned below, I've gotten some different answers, e.g. on http://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/2188/does-electri... where I asked the first time. Essentially, are you saying that with DC current, there is transfer of 'mass', but with AC, there isn't? In the case such as I've explained it elsewhere in this thread, this might mean that it matters how a computer is build to decide on whether the virtual sword can be stolen or not...

Plus--once you tell someone they can't have something.

The minute I tell a customer it's awaiting a pick-up, so many will email me back with more money. I don't take it because I'm not a filthy Looker. I once had a girlfriend who was always yacking about having a family later in life. I didn't even like her that much--sue me. She was beautiful though. The rap about the kids was getting old. We were getting tedious. Most it it was my emotional issues, but she was just irritating me. One night, after hearing about what our life will be after she got her PhD, and finished med school(didn't even have a Bachelor's degree yet). I slowly ended the relationship. I started with, "You're wonderful, but I don't ever want kids." Crickets on the room. "What?" Me, "I just don't want the little rug rats?". The next few weeks, I had a feeling she told all her friends, and she had so many. After a few months of weirdness, I got the talk.)

It's a non-problem, compared to various other chemicals we deal with in industry. Nuclear waste is relatively easy to store and there isn't a lot of it. Yes - it's nasty, toxic stuff, but we know how to handle it.

Having to store some of it isolated for 10000 years is a concern, yes, especially if you look at the average lifespan of human civilizations. But we already have ways to reuse the waste (fast breeder reactors), and we could likely figure out many more - but reluctance to fund nuclear research and applications, driven partly by the fear of "the waste", is not helping here.

This seems like the final nail in the coffin for SolarCity's in-house solar manufacturing technology from Silveo, which as I recall was meant to be part of the justification for Tesla buying them.

Hmm.

Not sure I agree with this entirely.

Sure, facebook/twitter/social media et al are obviously utter dross, but why cut yourself off from learning & knowledge like some sort of troglodyte?

People say books are great - and sure they are, but I have yet to find a book that 100% answers every question I have right there on the page as I am reading it. I frequently find myself thinking "hmm interesting - I wonder...." and look up stuff on the internet for more background/context/history/examples/whatever.

In my opinion curiosity is something that should be encouraged and not put on a rationed list of "things to do later, if you have the time"

My advice would be:
- delete all social apps
- star your immediate family contacts so that all other calls/notifications etc are silent
- stay observant and curious, and embrace the pursuit of knowledge & learning

> the consumption of electrical energy requiring the transfer of mass, however small

Does precedent talk about transferring mass of electrons? Otherwise the transferred energy also has mass, via mass-energy equivalence.

> but in this particular argument (on ownership of virtual goods, like a sword in World of Warcraft), the issue of the mass was even more pertinent.

This on the other hand is on a bit more tenuous grounds. In theory you don't actually have to move energy (and thus mass) around to move information if you use physically reversible operations. But all practical computers use irreversible operations, which means information is sent by expending some energy, this is obvious in sending photons down a fiber or radio waves being able to power a lightbulb.

There are actual risks with handling really dirty waste and turn it into really dirty fuel - you can't just hand-wave away that as "environmental activism."

It's much more risky than just leaving the waste in a pond cooling for 20 years while hoping that you will be retired before someone actually have to get rid of it.
That report isn't quite accurate; you can install updates automatically on the device I have (I don't know if there was some point in time where that wasn't possible; seems like a basic feature). Some require reboots though, which is why by default updates aren't automatic. Who sets their servers on fully automatic updates (and reboots) anyway? I mean, even forgetting about the reboots - you don't want fileservers to disconnect all clients at any random point in time because it has to install some update to the service software.
Last summer I tried intermittent fasting as an experiment attempting to lose some body weight to become a more efficient runner. I figured it would work for me because generally I would not get hungry in the morning until I actually ate something. I regularly work out twice a day, so to accomodate I took some protein / BCAA's around the workout that fell outside the eating window. Within the window my diet was high in healthy fats, plants and protein - basically all the stuff recommended for this kind of diet.

It worked great for about a month or so, and I lost a couple of kg. Then the cravings started, mostly for sugar. Could no longer focus at work, was irritable, exercise performance declined. I ended up gaining all the weight back + about 1kg or so before I decided to cut it off. Right now I'm on a predominantly plant-based diet for about half a year now, feeling great, faster and lighter than ever.

My point: if you're a (semi-)serious athlete with the same goals I had, by all means try it out, but don't expect a silver bullet. The overwhelming majority of athletes follow a normal diet schedule and eat significant amounts of carbohydrates. I encourage everyone to experiment with their body to see what works for them - it's the one thing that's all yours, after all. Just don't assume you're the exception.

Or build denser cities where the average inhabitant consumes much less energy.

A lot of the waste in America comes from sprawl, causing everyone to build bigger houses and own bigger things, but most importantly, rely on fossil fuels just to get around every day.

Of course converting the US to high density is probably too late.

The US is also the biggest target market for Chinese made goods, which means a lot of the non-fossil fuel pollution you see in China is really just externalizef American pollution.
Under most circumstances, none of these are emergencies.

Sexual harrassment is difficult to prove criminally. Heck, even regular harrassment takes some work to prove and usually winds up with a restraining order. This isn't really appropriate for work.

Abused and exploited: This would have to be outside of the normal workplace norms and actually criminal. Most times, the abuse and exploitation is in the form of words (abuse, again hard to prove) and forcing folks to work long hours, despite difficulties (normal with some fields, so isn't considered legal exploitation).

It winds up there is little that the cops can do.

Occasionally folks can quit and get unemployment because a workplace isn't safe or is beyond what folks expect. For example, I knew a lady that started getting treated badly because her son broke into the school - loss of workplace responsibility and other such things. She got unemployment, but she was lucky. You can sometimes get the same for sexual harassment.

Occasionally, workplaces will have avenues for reporting such abuses, but one never really knows if they'll face backlash at work for reporting such a thing.

Retailers sales would be the same, but they wouldn't be paying unnecessary commission to RMN. Sales commissions make sense when someone is directing new customers to a business. But as has been said in this thread, they were simply better at SEO. The customer was already a) aware of said product and b) showing intention to purchase. These are precisely the value propositions that affiliate marketing was designed for.
The US global gag rule, which has been in effect under every Republican president for decades, blocks foreign aid funding to any organization that mentions abortion.

Open source Hercules is still alive. Attempts to commercialise it (TurboHercules) ran into legal trouble with IBM, but to my knowledge the open source Hercules project hasn't faced any issues. (Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer, I don't work for IBM, etc.)

IBM's licensing agreements don't allow you to run current versions of its mainframe OSes under Hercules. IBM will sell you an equivalent technology which you can legally run their OSes under, an x86 mainframe emulator called zPDT, but it is quite expensive (I have heard figures quoted like USD 5000). This is where TurboHercules ran into problems–they wanted to run current IBM OS versions under Hercules, but IBM says that violates their license agreements. TurboHercules tried to get the EU to force IBM into licensing their OSes to run on Hercules, but they didn't succeed.

By contrast, you are legally allowed to run old versions, 1970s vintage–in those days, IBM chose to release its operating systems into the public domain. That has little practical use, so can't be commercialised, but lots of people do that as a hobby, and there is stuff happening in that scene. I recommend this distribution of MVS 3.8J if you want some basic exposure to MVS – http://wotho.ethz.ch/tk4-/ – a lot of the basics, like JCL and TSO, aren't hugely different, although a lot of features you'd expect on a modern z/OS system (e.g. ISPF, Unix, Java, TCP/IP, peer-to-peer SNA) are missing in this circa 1981 system.

It is also perfectly legal to run Linux under Hercules. I never have because it seems somewhat pointless–the differences between z/Linux and x64 Linux are minor–but I can see practical uses – you can port a project/product to z/Linux so your customers can run it on their IBM mainframes without you needing an IBM mainframe yourself.
I do have a smart phone, because I got one handed by my employer and I kinda need it for work. However I find it almost unusable, the screen is too small, the onscreen keyboard and general touch interface seems cumbersome. The result is that I spend almost no time with my phone, only when forced.

iMessage has to one of the greatest inventions in recent time. It allows me to communicate with my family, without forcing to use an actual phone.
The problem is if there's some obscure language behaviour that's not documented well, and the code relied on that behaviour.

unless you're an expert and knows the language inside out, it's hard to even know such a problem occurred.
So does, unfortunately, the rest of the world. With the recent anti-nuclear craze, the EU is sadly not stellar in this regard either. And all of this forgets about Africa, which continues to improve the living condition of its people and thus grow in energy demand. If there isn't green infrastructure ready to be used there, they'll go for the easiest thing, which means fossil fuels.

And so do many individuals. I mean, I can ask anyone about the climate, and they'll all tell me that "climate change bad; clean air good". But when I say something about emission tax, the most polite response I get is "what's wrong with you, mate?"...

It as never been illegal to perform nuclear research in Sweden. Between 1988 and 2006 it was illegal to perform preparatory actions for building nuclear power plants (in addition to actually building them, after the 1980 referendum vote). It was commonly referred to as "tankeförbudet" (a pejorative term, close to "illegal thoughts"). The law was removed 2006, one of the reason was this common misconception.

However, ABB created and exported (among others) the BWR90+ during the nineties, proving your statement wrong. You can read about it in the newspaper about how it iw popular to study nuclear power again (article from 2010). http://www.dn.se/nyheter/politik/karnkraft-hett-pa-universit...

I'm an avid reader, and I can say that Kindle, Goodreads, Google Books all fill the use case of finding new books to read, but is very lacking in the tracking department. I've had some small plans of making an app/site that just focuses on the tracking part, making and managing a list of books to read/already read with local ratings. I also want the ability to subscribe to an author or a book series and be notified of new releases.

I haven't been able to find a good service that does this in a good way. I have a prototype working pretty good right now, the only problem is that the book databases I use isn't that good sadly.
To echo another comment on here -

Daily standups have been the most useful development I've seen in my 17 year career so far, I'm not sure why there's the hate for them.

It's a small time allotment where everyone gets just a couple of minutes to sum up where they were yesterday, where they're going today and what's holding them up.

I've seen them go wrong, when managers decide that they need to attend and use part of the meeting for "management announcements". I've seen it go wrong when one team member cannot shut up and regularly took over the whole meeting (yes, the scrum master was ineffectual). But in general I've found the daily rapid-fire catchup a thing of beauty.

The rest I can take or leave. One of the worst projects I've ever observed had a highly paid SCRUM Master/Consultant/Trainer and that team seemed to spend several hours each day on process. They failed to deliver anything, ever, the product was scrapped and everyone was laid off, including the development manager.
That's really impressive. I look forward to seeing that in production.

(Also, some searching suggests that it's "tens of thousands of colors" rather than true color, but that's still a major improvement, and more than enough for the majority of the web sans photographs.)

Very few languages reach any significant adoption, regardless of why/how they were designed.
