It's not mere availability of food. Obesity rates vary quite widely across OECD countries; the US is at 35%, France/Italy/Spain are at about 5-10%, Korea is below 4%.

Overeating is a stress response for a lot of people, and overeating often occurs among people in high-stress situations. The US is a country that tolerates a very high level of poverty, inequality, and insecurity, and this results in high obesity rates in some sectors. Obesity isn't the same problem for people who shop at Whole Foods and spend hours at the gym on weekends; it's a more severe problem among people who have to work a horrible job 60-80 hours a week to avoid really desperate poverty, live in decrepit housing, spend hours on neglected bus lines, and are physically insecure.

The Gervais principle illuminates a lot of what happens in large organizations. If you ever feel like what you do matters less than how you're perceived, then you're absolutely correct [1].

So far as when to leave, I try to keep track of the health of the division (in a Big Dumb Corp) or company (smaller companies). If the business area I'm in is no longer a focus for the company (opex vs capex) or not meeting targets (whatever they maybe; sales goals, customer retention, etc) then that's a strong signal to start looking.

A few other warning signs: churn in leadership, senior people leaving. When you see the organizational knowledge base packing up and leaving that's a bad sign.

Currently, I've chosen to work in a Dilbert wonderland. This Big Dumb Corp is so dumb it's astounding. I'm here and staying (for now) because the division I'm in is a growth area, my manager is cool, I have one semi interesting long term project to work on, and since they are so big and dumb, they're paying 10-15% above market rate on salary and benefits.

Another Sarno cure checking in. Debilitating "RSI" in wrists/arms and back pain. I tried everything (lots of rest, ergonomic keyboards, cold compresses, NSAIDs, physical therapy), but nothing I did seemed to make any difference. Eventually, after two years of arm pain and half a year of back pain, I read Sarno's book "The Mindbody Prescription". I was very skeptical, but I was desperate. Within a couple of days I felt better, even better after a week, then a month. That was two and a half years ago. Today I have no back pain and I can type all day pain free.

Occasionally I get flare ups where I'll feel a little discomfort in my arms, but reminding me of the lessons within Sarno's books makes it go away within a day at most, and ever since I read Sarno I have never felt that I was in too much pain to work on a computer.

I don't know if Sarno got everything right, but typing this comment without pain proves to me that he is on to something.

Don't suffer for years like I did! If you are interested, I would recommend watching this 20/20 segment with Dr. Sarno: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsR4wydiIBI (13m35s). If you search for "RSI" on Hacker News, there are some great threads in which Sarno's theory is discussed.

Hybrid is the means rather than the end. Better to require CO2 emissions to conform to a certain limit (or better still a gradual tax scale - that's already how it works in my country) and let the manufacturers achieve that by whatever way seems best.

The bigger problem in the US is that "commercial" vehicles are exempt from many of the regulations, and so manufacturers get a lot of their cars legally defined as "light trucks". Start treating businesses the same way as individuals.

This reminds me of my work at a big corp.

For 10 years I had a chronic back pain. It was like burning behind my shoulder blades. I went to doctors, did exercises and massage. No effect. Then I happened to take a Calcium supplement. Pain went away in 30 minutes. Now I am pain-free. Why couldn't the doctors detect my lack of Calcium and recommend a basic supplement in so many years? I think there is a lot of bullshit in how they deal with this kind of issues.

Another supplement that had a huge impact on me is Magnesium. It helps me sleep well, reduces anxiety and chronic fatigue. Also increases libido. It's as if it shaves a decade off my age.

So maybe it was all because of the water I was drinking - too filtered, lacking normal minerals that are found in natural water.

NDA's have a solid use for preventing exposure of sensitive IP or technical infrastructure knowledge. Outside of that, they should be banned completely. In general we ought to be demanding a lot more transparency from both our public and privately owned institutions, especially once they've grown to the size of Google, Facebook, etc.
I'm pretty sure it doesn't have one either, and that's by design. It seems very dangerous to have such an option. The best you can if encryption limits you is to use a faster cypher such as arcfour (RC4).

It actually reminded me of this old OpenSSH poster: http://openbsd.appli.se/images/poster2.jpg

IIRC the "++" on the RSH tombstone is a reference to a config directive that would open RSH access to anybody from anywhere, effectively giving you a very simple and rather inconspicuous way to "trojan" any rsh install. With SSH the best you can do is install a public key in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, but it's not quite as convenient as simply adding a "++" in a file when nobody's looking.

I thought horses was banned because they ... produce some unwanted mass on the road which hard to clean?

Cars on the other hand, don't do that at all.

Maybe that's the reason why cars are not banned.
I'm not sure what you mean by "manual cars" there. When there are discussions about future bans on "manual cars" that means cars as we have them right now, without any sort of level 5 automatic control. A theoretical level 5 car that also lets drivers have control for fun as long as some set of conditions are continuously met wouldn't be a "manual car" I think, it'd be a self-driving car with an operator recreation mode as allowed by local laws/ordinances. In that situation the system is always ready to take back over should a condition fail, or for that matter should the driver merely decide they want it to. If you meant though that there would be a mix of manual and self-driving cars allowed because the self-driving ones have collision avoidance, then that doesn't make sense, as a manual car could still create collisions that were unavoidable (even by accident). It's not like self-driving cars have force fields.

Having said all that, even if we're talking only about "manual modes" in l5 rather then "manual cars", there are still reasons why they might be banned or at least massively restricted in general, and that's due to infrastructure economics, not crashes. Well developed L5 cars will be capable of operating with a level of precision (in terms of actual road lines and such) and reliability that is beyond the general population, so once all cars reach that level it significantly changes how roads and support infrastructure themselves can be designed. Purely self-driving vehicles simply won't need the lanes to be as wide for example, which directly translates into newly available free space on exisitng roads. That could be used to make them purely thinner (less paving = massive cost savings), gain an extra mechanized vehicle lane for free (higher capacity for the same price), maintain existing numbers of lanes but gain new lanes for walkers/bikers, or some combination. There will be a lot of minor to radical optimizations available with significant economic and quality of life benefits, so long as you don't have to worry about having human drivers at all. That's probably going to tempt a lot of jurisdictions sooner or later.

Except that you can't come close to consuming content faster than it's produced on things like Facebook.

Not sure where you are but here in the UK it's quite legal to ride a horse or drive a horse with a carriage of some kind on the road. The carriage needs to be "road worthy" but aside from that you don't even need a license of any kind unless you're transporting passengers.

It's just not very fast compared to modern cars and quite expensive so not as many people do it.

Edit: Oh one minor mostly common sense note -

You can't ride/drive horses on the motorway and probably shouldn't on faster roads or dual carriageways due to the rest of the traffic going far faster than you.
I'm pretty sure that conventional reactor split around as much fuel as the U-235 content.

For conventional reactors it is around 3% and you are left with around 3% fission products.

Natural uranium has around 0.7% U-235. But I0m pretty sure that you would enrich the uranium befor you send it to mars. The 16TJ/kg is for enriched uranium with 20% U-235 content.

Anyway, energy density of nuclear fuel is extremly high. Even if you pay 10000 USD/kg for the transport of fuel to mars, you'd pay around 1 cent/kwh for the transport.

Kotlin or not, I feel like Java is just the wrong choice. Even Kotlin, there's a lot of noise to start with. What's a function? What's an Array? What's a String? I have to either explain all those things, or handwave it as "magic; ignore it for right now" to students. I would find that incredibly frustrating as both a student, and a teacher.

I TAed an intro to CS class in Python for a number of years. I am rather ambivalent toward Python as a developer, but as a first language to be taught it worked pretty well. There are others, but having the minimum amount of noise for some basic coding examples I think is incredibly helpful (though I admit, I think I'm basically just saying "I think dynamically/optionally typed scripting languages > statically, explicitly typed compiled languages for this task").
You know there's a thing called organisational unit, right? If the .eu and .com domains aren't enough for you, you're most likely required to have one and when you have one, you can register .sk domain. Check the laws.

I wish people would be less cavalier with throwing around gastric bypass as a general obesity fix. I know many people that have had gastric bypass, and have considered it for myself as an obese man.

You will absolutely lose weight with gastric bypass. Full stop. And usually a ton of weight. Which is good! And the surgical complications have fallen way down over time. Those are the good bits. The BAD bits that aren't emphasized in the literature (and that a poor doctor will gloss over):

1) A lack of focus. Universally the people I know that have had gastric bypass seem to have a greatly reduced ability to concentrate on complex tasks and recall. Its almost like 'pregnancy brain' but for men and women and seems to persist long after the surgery.

2) Gastric issues. Everyone knows that people that have gastric bypass spend a lot of time vomiting after their surgery while they adjust to what kinds, and volumes, of food that their greatly reduced stomach can handle. What isn't discussed is that often times your stomach is reduced to such a point where food gets into your intestinal track partially digested, leading to diarrhea and a host of other digestive issues. Also, depending on where the band is placed there might not be enough 'drop' in your stomach for food to easy make it further into the digestive tract. This can lead to further surgeries and even shortening of the intestine. I don't know about you, but going through the rest of my life fighting explosive diarrhea. I'd rather be obese then run the risk of vomiting and intestinal distress for the rest of my life.

3) A general listlessness. I don't know what the cause of this is but I've observed it in everyone that I know thats had it done but no one as much as my mom. She was quite overweight my entire life, but almost disgustingly energetic and just generally full of life. She rarely got sick, and could work a full day of manual labor with no complaint or sign of slowing. After her surgery she shrank way down lost all of her, for a lack of better word, vim. After the surgery she didn't seem to have the energy or interest in pursuing any of the pursuits that made her get the surgery in the first place.

4) Long term results. Long term results for gastric bypass are not great. Most people will shrink down over the course of a year or two to a low weight and then will start packing the weight back on. Slowly at first but usually more and more rapid as time goes on.

I'm not trying to say that gastric bypass isn't an option for a lot of people-but I wish people (obese and non-obese) would stop looking at it as a cure all. Its at best a staving off. Lack of willpower, deep seated problems with food, and self-esteem are almost always the demons at the bottom of the obese pyramid and until you exorcize them, surgery is going to just paper over your problems.

This feels only the level of suggesting a person can choose to not be depressed by thinking positive thoughts. Mental issues are 'just choices', yet we aren't sure that free will even exists or if choices can be made. Research on the brain shows it isn't nearly as simple as just choosing to be better. Brain does a great job of tricking us into thinking we have control.

As I understand it, repairs are expensive, but general maintenance is less, because there isn't as much to maintain.
Most cars already do this. In a Chevy Volt and Ford C-MAX Energi, for instance, you tell it what time you leave for work in the morning (say 7:00am), and then it automatically waits to charge until the middle of the night to ensure the battery is full when you leave the next morning.

Even if you plug it in right at 5pm, it doesn't actually start drawing electricity until later at night.

This feature it set just one time only, and works automatically forever afterwards. It's been common on most electric cars since 2013.
> suddenly, communicating ideas openly for people only interested in the product and the customer - and by doing that jumping over hierarchy's is a criminal offense - the last terminal stage is reached.

This is not a bad thing. The key is some hierarchy is good. For example, often in small organizations the product is at the mercy of the loudest sales person, demanding the feature to make their sale. SalesPersonX needs FeatureY to close a $50,000 deal, when CustomerA, CustomerB, and CustomerC have all requested ImprovementD, maybe they'll renew without it, maybe not.

Someone needs to make this call: prioritize ImprovementD or FeatureY. Maybe they can both get done this year, maybe not. It's a business decision, either keep current customer happy or drive for sales. Usually SalesPersonX knows RockstarZ's number and calls him directly. RockstarZ get's burned out from the constant pressure and quits.

So, someone needs to be gathering feedback from customers and prospects, build a roadmap, then project management can concentrate on delivering features. Some hierarchy is required for long term growth and stability. If you're sales people are burning out your Devs, you've got a problem. And you're goddamned right I'm going be harsh on the sales guy who's calling my devs directly.

creating or updating a component is usually cross-concern, so if you want to change some functionality in a component you'll have to update it's controller,view,model etc...

If they are in the same folder, it makes moving between the relevant files for a feature easier (especially if you have a lot of components and finding the right file in your "controllers" folder means searching through a few dozen files).

It also makes reasoning about a certain feature easier - since all the relevant files are grouped next to eachother you can easily move between a feature's controller and it's view.

It also makes moving a feature easier- instead of renaming each file separately you can simply move the folder to anywhere else in the structure (for instance if you move a feature from a specific page to something more generic/shared)
I remember when Mosaic came out. I was in a computer lab at college. I remember thinking this is stupid. Microsoft gives away a free text editor that does RTF that's pretty much the same thing as this HTML garbage. if you want a file from a server just FTP it. And it takes forever to load.

The more invested you are in the last paradigm the harder it is to see the next paradigm shift. Just like me using the word paradigm instead of disruption.

When creativity and entrepreneurship are locked up in one system they find away around it.
