> I'm sure I'm sitting on the wrong side of countless user studies that say to the contrary

This is completely off topic, but I was a UX study participant last year, it was an interesting experience. They told me to do as I usually do when surfing the web, and to verbalize my thought process.

I opened the website, and a huge nonmodal advertisement to win some $15 piece of garbage pops up. On pure instinct I click ctrl-w to close the tab, and state "what an obnoxious advertisement, I am boycotting this site".

It went downhill from there.
Maybe the likes of Apple said to Intel: "Look, if you don't find a way to supply GREAT integrated graphics, we're going to do our own laptop chips".

So Intel goes cap-in-hand to AMD for their tech.

Gee, remember Letterman's top 10 lists, back before internet was a thing? Yeah, me too. Neither invented lists, though, and sometimes they are one of the more efficient ways to communicate information.
Nifty trick! Is there a limit to the number of site: filters?

Look for an extension that highlights the good results. I find that more valuable than filtering the bad results.
I have also made bulleted notes of this article a few months back: https://github.com/hierophantos/capable

Talking to one of the "O-Cap Gang", Norm Hardy (http://www.cap-lore.com/CapTheory/) a few weeks ago, he said, to the point of creating secure distributed computing architectures: "Object capabilities are not easy, but they're the only way I see forward."

I'm biased to agree.
The reason this list exists is to discourage phrases that are, among other things, misunderstood. So your argument that people don't understand the reference simply strengthens the case against using the phrase.

Non English publication would be fine. Its the review process that matters.

I have no problems believing that a colloquial form of Sanskrit was spoken, that would be the very definition of a vernacular. A situation not different from the Latin example you gave.

Records of a direct quote of a protagonist who is commoner, in literature or preferably in royal records etc would be acceptable evidence. Otherwise how can one differentiate it from claims that humans rode dinosaurs with wings.

BTW I don't disagree with you when you state there is a bias against such subject matter (you can look up the issue of Taylor's expansion of trigonometric functions by the Kerala school of mathematicians much before Newton). The way to address this would be do counter that with proper research results and processes.

Actually, it is a little controversial. Apparently our bodies adapt to lower calories intake.

So if your basal metabolism rate is 2500 initially, and you drop it to 1500, after a few weeks/months and after you've lost some weight, if you eat anything above the 1500, you start putting weight again. I believe there are some studies that show this out there.

Intermittent fasting (skipping breakfast for instance and keeping a 16+ hours period between your last meal and first meal the next day) seems to avoid that, but I'm not sure if you can eat your original number of calories in the eating period and still lose weight, or if you can reduce the calories then. Also, low carbs anyway.
If I remember the last numbers right, Apple Laptop sales share are around 10% at best, so if anything like that story happened, it would not be them but HP (25%)/Lenovo (20%)/Dell (15%).
This is a very important point. I work for a company that publishes client libs for many different package indexes (although not npm). This is a fairly well automated process, but it takes minutes (if that) to push a new version to pypi, rubygems etc, but at least a few hours of fiddling about to get something on maven, which of course has this security infrastructure.

An analogy might be drawn with the app stores. We all know it is massively easier to get stuff in the play store than the iOS store. We all know there is a shit ton of spam, malware etc on the play store and not really in the other. But it's also much easier to contribute to. It's a trade off. Security is important, but sometimes I feel that people are unwilling to treat it as an input in a basic cost benefit analysis, instead turning it into a kind of absolute value. I accept that it is not treated seriously enough by many in the community, but overcorrection is not the answer.

Of course, other relatively 'open' package indexes exist that do not have npm's typo squatting issues, so there are other design issues at work in this particular case.

> Target retirement date funds are very different from reverse mortgages. In a reverse mortgage, you're borrowing money, which you pay interest on, which is secured by a large asset you own (your house). The reason they're so dangerous is because you're paying interest on the borrowed money, so it compounds, and can eat up your home equity very quickly.

You're confused; that's a regular mortgage. In a reverse mortgage, you sell your house to the bank for a defined monthly payment over X duration. It's a way of letting you spend the value of your house while figuring "hey, I'll die shortly before I lose the house".

Similarly, a target retirement fund is a way for you to pull your money out of the fund and hope that (1) you die just as you spend the last of it and (2) you didn't want to leave your family anything.

You can't live off of invested money by spending the principal. If that's what you're doing, you're not living off your investments, you're living off, and losing, your savings.

> I believe there’s a lot of truth to it, from my experience it totally matches a mini psychotic event.

Jan Irvin at GnosticMedia has an interesting article about this "Entheogens: What’s in a Name? The Untold History of Psychedelic Spirituality, Social Control, and the CIA" [0] (note: this is part 4 of a 5-part series).

"Today there are many names for drug substances that we commonly refer to as “hallucinogens,” “psychedelics,” “psychoactives,” or “entheogens,” et al. But it hasn’t always been that way. The study of the history and etymology of the words for these fascinating substances takes us, surprisingly, right into the heart of military intelligence, and what became the CIA’s infamous MKULTRA mind control program, and reveals how the names themselves were used in marketing these substances to the public, and especially to the youth and countercultures."

edit: There is some interesting etymology here, Irvin claims it evolved from the word "psychotomimetic" (mimicking psychosis)

Could you give some examples of applications of encryption where the purpose is not to send a message that adversaries may see but cannot understand?
This is really awesome!

I don't have any ideas on how to make it more "human-like", but for some words it would have been nice to have their definitions (maybe in a tooltip over the words).
At least it is the first few times..

I think similar tricks have been played before.
So here is the odd thing: servers are (often) managed by Trained Proffesionals, and have backups and failovers.

Personal computers are, well, not like that. And yet they often have peoples important creative works, correspondence etc on them. ECC is probably more useful there, it's just that it is harder to make any benefit visible to the customer.

(That doesn't mean customers don't care about realiability. It is just that they have no sane way of distinguishing a product that really is realiable from one with advertising that lies about being reliable).

> and that they should provide another method for people to participate

Ideally that would be perfect.

Realistically, the people running the groups and events have 99% of their time dedicated to non-communication activities and standing-up a mailing list or website is outside their time-capacity AND experience.

As an example here in Ireland we have a group called Airliner Experiences that organise enthusiast flights on rare and interesting aircraft. They exist only on Facebook, I have asked why and it's because they "don't have time" to run a website for the few non-Facebook oddballs. So I've missed many potentially-interesting experiences but they haven't missed my money because there is such a huge audience in Facebook.

Your body needs about 2 weeks to adapt. Also, for instance, even though it's recommended to exercise while fasting, it's recommended to do the exercise right before eating. So that may have something to do with it. Try the 7am to 5pm thing, but give it 2-3 weeks.

Also, I think some studies show that the fasting period begins after 12h (others say 8h), but it's much more pronounced after 18h. So the more you fast, the better. But take it gradually the first few weeks.

As for binge-eating, you can also try eating normally every other day or every 3 days, especially in the beginning. Then the next day or two try to "compensate" and eat less in those fasting periods. But it's important to keep a low-carb diet, because a high-carb diet is also what makes you hungry more, and looking for sweets, too (and proven to lead to many chronic diseases).

There are a collection of use cases where sed and awk (and bash) are perfect tools. IMHO, the best advice is to switch to a real scripting language (like perl or python) as soon as the complexity increases. This way you never need to learn in detail all the intricacies of these tools. You just need to know the small use cases and to master your favorite scripting language. The life is too short and too many interesting domains exists to lose time mastering the quirks or sed, awk and bash. Real scripting languages do not have so many quirks and limitations. This helps to produce less buggy software. Time is precious, choose what you want to learn.
Humira really is a life-changing drug - but it is offensively, eye-wateringly expensive. Each auto-injector pen costs approx. £500; and I have to take one every 2 weeks. To put that in perspective, that's a cost of about £1000 per month - which is considerably more than my mortgage. My house costs less than my medical treatment.

Fortunately for me, I live in the UK, where the NHS is able to help absorb these costs. In the US, I guess they aren't so lucky - if I lived there, my Humira treatment would financially destroy me - and probably my entire family, too. It's morally reprehensible for a company to have access to such a life-changing treatment and then proceed to charge such disproportionately vast sums of money (certainly, far beyond the cost of R&D).

I suppose you could say that instead of crippling its patients physically (like their medical problems do), Humira cripples its patients financially - and I'm not sure that's a great deal better.

"Home Economics" used to be a common course, along with "shop", but both have experienced a decline in lieu of other courses which helps boost one's high school (grades 9-12) résumé for university applications.

If media literacy and home economics were part of the core curriculum, we'd easily see a decline in health-related issues from fast-food consumption and poor grocery shopping habits. Until, of course, Yum! Brands finds a way to partner with the schools and modifies the curriculum.

That's a pretty massive "package", more like a small motherboard. You'd want to spread them out a bit for thermal reasons.
Not sorely based on that idea, but IF definitely relies on the idea that nutrient timing isn't important. Its almost definitional.
Exactly!

More than that, you can fool models that work completely differently (like decision trees, SVM and kNN) with false data made for the other model, which shows some kind of underlying similarity in there that we don't know yet.

Or maybe just similarity of the training sets?

yeah, it would be harder to make and sell "handicaped" configurations to users for high prices, forcing them to prematurely upgrade... hence everybody would milk less money from the end-users. also, some still sell 5400 RPM HDDs (!!!) in some versions of current-gen machines and some people actually buy them!

all systems you see today with like 6-8GB of RAM and <500 GB SSD storage will practically force their users to upgrade in <3 years, whereas if you sell to the average home user a system with >=16GB RAM and >500GB SSD, he could keep using it for up to 6 years with no chance of it feeling underpowered... so very bad for business!

The first sentence of the article: Exercise _may_ change the composition and activity of the trillions of microbes in our guts...

Kind of a title bait.

Also, if you measure your microbiome every day you would see that it varies widely from day to day. So these results based on one measurement before the experiment and one measurement after are not reliable.

You're right. However hypocrisy is wrong, very much so.

Quoting some Dawkins on what "a gene for X" means:

When a geneticist speaks of a gene "for" red eyes in Drosophilia, [...] he is implicitly saying: there is variation in eye colour in the population; other things being equal, a fly with this gene is more likely to have red eyes than a fly without the gene. That is all that we ever mean by a gene "for" red eyes.

You might consider it an "annoyance" for quite a few other people it's simply yet another sign of Nintendo being stuck somewhere a decade ago.

Every other console manages to allow parental controls on the account level, in addition to having login authentification.

But with the Switch there's nothing like this, in that regard, the "console wide parental controls" feel more like the result of not having individual user login authentification than being an actual "feature".

The lack of login authentication also comes with its very own set of issues: Like Kids playing on their parent's accounts, overwriting their savegame progress or vice versa.
Sneaky bugs and how to find them – about Git bisect
I am getting tired of reading "Death of a Cavendish" articles, which prophesy doom for "the banana", and hint at some mysterious past banana that's now gone - the Gros Michel.

Jut as you say - there are other bananas! I've had them! I've had them in the UK, usually from non-mainstream, international food shops. I've had them in Indonesia, New Caledonia and various other Far East/Oceania areas. I've had apple bananas, lady-fingers, Fe'i and more...

There seems to be this delusion that there's such a thing as 'a banana' in the west, so we get 'bananas'. We miss out on the really tasty varieties and we fret that the most generic might die out and then we'd have no bananas. There are loads of genetically diverse types, and what's more if it wasn't for the insane monoculture the spread of disease wouldn't be half as bad.
