The book The Lore of Running covers this as well. For normal day to day things this is fine. However, it is extremely understudied with minimal evidence it works for everyone.

It is still unclear, and dubious to claim, that you can operate at 80+ percent VO2 max on hard work outs. Maybe for short workouts or workouts with bursts of activity e.g. basketball.

You can also undo fat adaptation pretty easily. The answer is it depends, but there is little evidence it has any large negative effects. Questions on peak performance vs "feeling fine" will be interesting to see in studies.
PoC is quite different. A PoC has to demonstrate a concept, it doesn't have to provide value. An MVP should be something that is used in a production setting. A PoC is usually followed by a "go / no go" decision, MVP is something that is built after the go.
The demand is there, is I guess the most obvious reason. I don't think companies are paying good salaries out of the kindness of their hearts.
I feel a bit stupid, but I don't understand what it means. "insist on a process that produces concrete, meaningful process" is it insisting on a process that produces another process?
The Daily Mail isn't even an acceptable source on Wikipedia let alone on HN.
If you read TFA though, the ambiguity you're citing doesn't seem to be the line they're waffling over.

The santorum bill the new NOAA chief supported in the past was pretty explicit about allowing _no_ competitive service, which would allow them to preclude even the most basic data sharing.

We've shown during the last N crises that american weather forecasting is already notably behind european models, and our lack of proper prediction and information dissemination has been very visible over the last decade of storm recoveries of varying success. I simply don't see the private sector incentives that would lead to fixing this, and see the competition argument as just another avenue to allow existing corporations to extract profit from even the most basic aspects of human safety.

It's pretty unusual to grow up without access to a telephone.

I don't think that the fact that you did it is proof that the communication revolution enabling instantaneous communication over distance didn't change the world or that not having that ability doesn't negatively impact someone's ability to make money or have a fulfilling social life.
I'd believe that if it were ordinarily hard to fork. But it's disproportionately hard to fork because of network effects. It's true that if the community approves of the current direction, a fork won't succeed. But that doesn't mean that if a fork doesn't succeed, it implies the community approves.
Can I ask why you decided to move from one of the cheapest startup-cities in EU to the most expensive one?
Selection bias is something worth avoiding in understanding health studies.
It’s quite likely that you know about these folks because they had the right genetics to be healthy outliers, and by extension, famous. It’s no different than saying I know x people who didn’t die of lung cancer due to smoking, which doesn’t change the implication that y% of smokers will always get lung cancer, we just haven’t figured out what fully constitutes your risk ( genetics etc)
Onboarding isn't too bad with ZeroNet to get a node up. The post demonstrates getting it from github but there are 'bundles' available for most platforms which include dependencies and are just unzip and run.

There is effort to create identities, etc though. The article is long because ZeroNet has a lot of features.
It would be interesting to have a word for devices that is sort of like 'organic' for food.

It would indicate that the device is self-contained and has no connectivity.
It takes about a week of < 20g/carbs a day for the body to go into ketosis. This is born out by buying keto strips and testing your urine.
I'm not surprised to see this at the top of HN considering how many people seem to be fans of the Keto Diet. I am very excited for people who find something that works for them, but I would be very wary of a study like this if you are looking for confirmation for multiple reasons:

1. The study "did not analyze which specific source of carbohydrates (e.g., sugar/refined carbs versus whole-grain products) may contribute to the detrimental effects of carbs observed, especially since income and wealth do impact the quality of dietary choices significantly."

This is HUGE. Any study or person that attempts to label an entire macronutrient as "bad" or "evil" is not helping anyone understand the whole picture. The most nutritious foods in the world are carbs. Many of the least nutritious foods are also carbs. Not distinguishing the two gets us nowhere.

2. With this study and most high fat/keto diet studies as well, the timeline is not long enough to tell us about true "lifespan" impact. This one is over 7.4 years. I know it's more difficult to do 10, 20, 30 year studies, but until something can be correlated over those timespans, I would not bet everything on that diet for longevity. There are a handful of generational studies, and almost all have shown that "high carb" or more specifically "plant based" ARE good for longevity. Not saying high fat aren't good for longevity as well, but we have yet to really see examples yet.

3. As many who have tried Keto specifically will tell you (as some have mentioned in the comments), it is very difficult to maintain a ketogenic state. You have to be very disciplined, and this is made harder when you are a social person. This is a big problem when talking about diet and longevity. If it's not fairly easy to maintain, then it's not a feasible diet for longevity where the average person is concerned.

4. As someone else mentioned, the percentage of carbs that the studies participants were eating were not even close to the level required for a Keto Diet
Most people did not grow up without phones. I know it's a bit pedantic, but people grew up without SMART phones. Most people on this website and I'd say most people successful under 35 grew up with access to the internet, though.
Heading to Europe from where?
very interesting - but I wonder how much of this can be automated - IOCCC could be a nice benchmark on deobfuscation utilities.
Besides the obvious possible things (strange syntax, whitespace, indentaiton) and very difficult ones (giving human meaning to things - although pattern matching and ML could maybe be applied here) is there anything non-obvious that exists now ?
There are 3.2M EU citizens in the UK, and 1.2M UK citizens in the EU. So it makes sense for the EU27 to offer reciprocity.
Anecdotal evidence and mass media will lead you astray, best to look at the numbers. VC investment in the UK since Brexit is ~$2.5B, about 2x that of Germany and 3x France.
It is not built on ipfs. It uses the bittorrent DHT to associate site addresses with IP addresses (or tor onion addresses if configured to use tor). Actual transfer of data is done via a custom p2p service implemented within ZeroNet.
I won't argue about the simplicity of the implementation. People seem to enjoy the app and that is enough for me.

The issue here is how maintainers act. I personally think you have responsibilities when jumping on as a core maintainer; one of them is to act respectfully towards others.

If this would be said in person, it would be considered extremely rude to my standards, especially since he lack context.

If this would've been me 4 years ago when I was learning to code, it would have been devastating for my motivation and joy for the project. As a core maintainer, you need to take this into account.

Don't you agree?
Currently developing a free app for UK citizens to relearn medieval methods of subsistence living after the imminent collapse of the economy and our National Health Service. Pro users will be able to get access to horse-and-cart-focused GPS, gamified witch-finding tutorials, an advanced plague management app and outbreak tracker, and an advanced AI-assisted voice app (voiced by Simon Pegg) that shows you how to cure just about anything with leeches. I predict business will be booming. If any VC funders are interested, please send a pigeon to my homestead in Brighton.
When you moved to US/Canada/Norway etc., you have secured your right to be there. Meanwhile, (depending on the details), Brexit can take away your right to work/stay in the UK.
Trade barriers won't really affect digital service companies as they're not moving physical goods around.

Digital services are affected by other types of regulation though which won't really change as a result of Brexit (e.g. if you're a British online accounting company selling a version optimised for German companies).
Unfortunately not. Not even close. EU is a political union -- it subsumed the European Economic Community and (partially) the Schengen Agreement and gradually added a lot of political centralization on top.

Scary how people equate those, without understanding the (monstrous) difference.
I always wonder, when nutrition studies are usually so poorly designed and controlled, why people don't just look at the blue zone diets for nutrition guidance.
Yes, not just because of brexit, but it was what tipped it over the edge for us. Have a few friends in tech who have left UK over the last year, more are planning to leave. We are not moving to Europe though, but to the SF area. We'll keep the R&D here for now (we are a deep tech company), and see how things with the negotiations pan out.
The Bitcoin price will asymptotically approach its maximum - and the last people onboard will see the least amount of deflation.

Without the anti-trust enforcement against Microsoft in the late 90s, tech, the American startup ecosystem and developer wages would probably all be a lot more stagnant.

Unfortunately this time around the DoJ appears to have zero appetite for anti-trust enforcement. Only the EU does.
It is a little bit of a stretch, but not so much of one that it is not a useful mental model. I talked to 1000s of people from many different walks of life about that election from 2014-2016 - top comment accurately describes how most middle and lower class people (i.e. the vast majority of America) felt about that election and their choices.
Oh so you think Tsukiji with its "authentic" sushi joints operated by Koreans and Chinese is not a tourist trap?
> he later became the first military officer to speak out against such practices. He did so not just because he thought they were wrong, but because he thought they were stupid.

You know, just in case you were tempted to think he was a morally decent human being. I still can't believe how casually people talk about one of the shameful human rights abuses in recent history as if torturing a person would still be okay if worked.

It's what I call the WebMD problem, though it's much older. WebMD has to put 'cancer' as possible cause for nearly every symptom because otherwise they risk huge lawsuits. Another shining example is some chainsaws having the warning label 'do not stop saw with hands or genitals'. I've always wondered, to Europeans, sue happy cultures like China or America look absolutely bonkers, but how do these cultures view Europe where it concerns that segment of society.. toothless? Sensible?
The fact that Google and Facebook go to such lengths means that there is a big benefit on using the monorepo. Or perhaps they are stuck with it.

May be not a monorepo, but at least trying avoid having too many repos.
The Real Story on Why Commodore Failed
"Doing keto" implies less than 20g/day on an ongoing basis, at least as I understand it. On top of that, one might have eaten early in the previous day, eaten no breakfast, and be working out about lunch time, which would provide the "at least half a day without carbs of any kind".

It may be that you disagree, but I get the feeling that you ignored the "doing keto" part of my setup, and instead thought that the person in question was eating cake 12.5 hours before the workout. :)
Facebook Says Its Fake News Label Helps Reduce the Spread of a Fake Story by 80%
It could try to classify the apple tree or the context, but it would require a lot of training data. If it's out of context, it should select a color based on probability. But it's hard to solve this with just input and output data. The simple solution is to use noncontradictory training data, i.e. only having green apples.

I have an urge to teach it simple logic. Instead of making it brown, it selects the color with the highest probability from a range of colors. However, I haven't come across a deep learning implementation like this to mimic.
Hardware-wise I am more interested in PSVR than anything else on the basis of content.
Everything you described can be summarized pretty briefly: toxic work atmosphere.

Look, I get it -- I was working in such organizations in the past. There are quite a few of lazy bums in there but they specialized in a few important aspects: (1) take credit for somebody else's work, (2) always have a pre-baked excuse or shifting the responsibility to somebody else if something in their job is not okay, and (3) have more years in there than you.

There's a lot of internal politics and intrigue in these places. If you try to beat this system, eventually you'll become a part of the problem -- you'll spend most of your time making sure nobody takes credit for your work, that you're blame-free etc.

There is no point. What you described does exist out there, yes. But I can bet my balls that the programmers I work with are times better than the parasites you describe.

Plus, don't forget burnout. That guy you described can only maintain that rhythm for no more than 2 years, 3-4 if he's a real masochist. But it eventually comes to an end. The solutions these toxic places opt for are always short-term (clarification: that works pretty well for many of them by the way; they are perfectly aware of what are they doing and they just replace the burned out yongsters with fresh youngsters, and the cycle resets).
Ha ha. I work in a similar line to you.

> This feels kind of like that.

It might feel like that, but it isn't. Everything[1] causes cancer. Not everything needs to have an Internet connection to a service to function, not essentially at least. It's only these people looking to monetize or "h0ok all teh th7ngs up!!1!eleven!" that are shoveling crap that no one asked for, but everyone is too lazy to object to. I've got a pair of wireless earbuds, completely modern kickstarted project. They function not just without an Internet connection, but even without a paired device. You can load music onto them like an iPod (remember them? they didn't have to be connected to a cloud to have thousands of songs).

Good design is possible if you care; bad design is trying to shoehorn required "connectivity" into something that doesn't need it.

Yes. Partially other people have correlated inputs with you, also you are more likely to notice something that you're interested in.
Satiation from fat varies per individual. Typically it does not satiate any more than carbs (calorie for calorie) and lead to easy over consumption.
No. That's a side-effect of a highly profitable market. Subtle but important difference.
Businesses looking for partners/successors?
Looking to freeload (in a manner speaking ). I'm seeking existing established businesses where the people at the helm of affairs are searching to augment their key members with level headed, non-political individuals. (Well, it's lonely up there isn't it?). Certainly I'm open to people who are wage slaves like me who would like to get off the wage slavery bandwagon for any future potential partnerships.
I'm 43 years old, a computer programmer by profession and surrounded by regular (and younger) folks who "just don't get it". Never been an employee material, but being an entrepreneur or starting a business is fraught with risks that could leave one devastated in an irrecoverable manner, hence this post. Essentially I'm trying to ensure my long term livelihood, survival, and sanity.

What's in for you? Essentially you get a 'critical' thinker who upholds and enforces ( if I have the authority) some values that are not obvious to most people in a common workplace. For example: - Mindless pursuit of profits/sales figures at the expense of other important things, for example health and well being. - Way too many meetings. - promotion of talkers over thinkers. ( there are exceptions to this) - Frequently promoting short term fixes over long term ones. - Falling for hype and buzzwords( for example most of the "big data" topics/implementations are BS). - confusing overwork with productivity.

etc...

It is important to note that I can actually do work ( like programming) as opposed to be an armchair philosopher.
I used to date a biologist who experimented with animals, primarily zebrafish. And she said they chose these creatures for quite a few reasons:

1. When genetic mapping was expensive, they were some of the first mapped.

2. They procreate quickly. Faster reproduction cycles means quicker experiments.

3. Because they were some of the first, more biologists have more experiments with these genomes. So faster and more advanced work can commence.

4. Nobody complains about experiments with what effectively amounts to insects and minnows (yes, I know zebrafish aren't - im going after the sentiment here).
TLDR: 60% DNA shared with humans + 4 chromesomes for easy mutation tracking + 2 week reproductive cycle for fast generation studying + easy to house/keep alive = great lab specimens to test genetic mutations

I've heard many times that "torture doesn't work" but I never understood how or why. In my naive mind, if someone pulls out my fingernail and threatens to pull out more if I don't talk, I doubt I would have the courage or resilience to stay silent and take the torture.
OK... How did they measure "rapport"?

The most important relationship he measured was between “yield” – information elicited from the suspect – and “rapport” – the quality of the relationship between interviewer and interviewee. For the first time, a secure, empirical basis was established for what had, until then, been something between a hypothesis and an insider secret: rapport is the closest thing interrogators have to a truth serum.

Above all, rapport, in the sense used by the Alisons, describes an authentic human connection. “You’ve got to mean it,” is one of Laurence’s refrains.
Great sources! Thanks.

I would love to know why BigQuery has a limit of 1,000 loads per day, per project [0].

I'm a founder of an early stage company that helps companies ETL their data into various Data warehouses, and I'm frequently met with companies that have evaluated BigQuery but ended up with Redshift or Snowflake because the maximum inserts/update/deletes are too low for their ETL process. Until these limits are increased, BigQuery is not an alternative to Redshift or Snowflake for a vast number of analytics teams that query thousands of tables that are updated hourly.

I'd highly recommend reading The Manager's Path by Camille Fournier. (http://amzn.com/1491973897) It covers the entire career path for a developer from developer to lead to manager to CTO. I found it incredibly insightful as a roadmap for what skills I'd need and challenges I'd face while laddering up. I also found it useful in understanding the challenges that my current manager is facing and how I could help learn to "manage up".
I have to agree. "Just do what they did and you'll have as good a chance as any." is very dangerous advice for many reasons. Besides selection/survivorship bias, you have NO idea what the true lifestyle of celebrities is outside of what you are shown.

And yet many of the longest-lived populations on earth have diets rich in carbohydrates, like the Okinawans.

I hate associational studies like this which don't distinguish between types of carbohydrates (sugar vs starch) or other factors, like whether they were eating whole meals of natural foods or snacking on potato chips 24/7.

But at least they've finally noticed they were completely wrong about saturated fat for 80 years.
And if you didn't know anything, would you sit there and keep losing fingernails, or tell them what they want to hear?
I think those things can be commercialized but they have not been to the extent that Keto diets have.
"Too much" is by definition more than what you ought to consume. On a keto diet, olive oil is an excellent source of fat. Used as salad dressing, it's highly unlikely to cross the "too much" threshold.

Understanding someone's motivation has nothing to do with compliance, unless you've already made up your mind that the other side is a comic book villain and their motivation is to be evil for evil's sake.

In reality, understanding someone's motivation can lead you to discover factors that influence it which you can change without doing anything unacceptable or even detrimental to you.
