Many people in this thread are talking about CICO (Calories In/Calories Out). While this does "work", I quite like this paper to explain why it's only a proximate cause of weight gain/loss.

"How calorie-focused thinking about obesity and related diseases may mislead and harm public health. An alternative"

"Abstract:
Prevailing thinking about obesity and related diseases holds that quantifying calories should be a principal concern and target for intervention. Part of this thinking is that consumed calories – regardless of their sources – are equivalent; i.e. ‘a calorie is a calorie’. The present commentary discusses various problems with the idea that ‘a calorie is a calorie’ and with a primarily quantitative focus on food calories. Instead, the authors argue for a greater qualitative focus on the sources of calories consumed (i.e. a greater focus on types of foods) and on the metabolic changes that result from consuming foods of different types. In particular, the authors consider how calorie-focused thinking is inherently biased against high-fat foods, many of which may be protective against obesity and related diseases, and supportive of starchy and sugary replacements, which are likely detrimental. Shifting the focus to qualitative food distinctions, a central argument of the paper is that obesity and related diseases are problems due largely to food-induced physiology (e.g. neurohormonal pathways) not addressable through arithmetic dieting (i.e. calorie counting). The paper considers potential harms of public health initiatives framed around calorie balance sheets – targeting ‘calories in’ and/or ‘calories out’ – that reinforce messages of overeating and inactivity as underlying causes, rather than intermediate effects, of obesity. Finally, the paper concludes that public health should work primarily to support the consumption of whole foods that help protect against obesity-promoting energy imbalance and metabolic dysfunction and not continue to promote calorie directed messages that may create and blame victims and possibly exacerbate epidemics of obesity and related diseases."

> The common answer I get is solutions "rob" the student of learning.

If you study math for some time, you'll realize that people in math community (especially students) like to repeat math related cliches (not necessarily true) over and over again. This is that sort of folk lore.

If I were to guess the whys of not including the solutions, I'd say it is to save space as detailed answers to even half the exercises take up considerable space; also "laziness" because writing detailed, explanatory answers is no different from writing the rest of the book. Who wants to do double the work ? :

Sure, but they can probably walk at least that. And (not) surprisingly walking is comparable (usually about 1/2 from jogging) as energy expenditure. Low intensity exercise (cardio) is the biggest burner of energy, since you can sustain it for long periods of time. Try burning 500 Kcal with weight lifting. You will quickly see that an hour long walk is much easier thing to do.

They were, but mammals at that time were pretty simple and weren't doing that well against their dinosaur competitors. When the asteroid took out most of the dinosaurs, that's when mammalian life really took off, because they were able to survive the many years of lack of sunlight that ensued.
oh, absolutely. So many good ones, too.

One thing that helps a little is to switch the project to text mode assets. This is the first thing I do in a new project. Then the .unity files and the like are saved as YAML instead of binary.

It's still not a format where you'd want to make major changes by hand; assets are linked together by GUIDs that the Editor assigns. But at least the YAML asset files are not completely opaque, and they play a lot better with source control.

>The YouTube inteface says "auto-generated"

Ok, I never noticed that. I just read the captions and assumed obvious misspellings were auto-generated.

For example in this video[1], the caption text is "L1D cache misses" but he's actually saying "L1-dcache misses". (The Linux terminal screen he's showing does display "L1-dcache".) Even though that video is not labeled as "auto-generated", I assumed it was because of the bad caption. Based on your info, I guess CppCon uses humans like Mechanical Turk or other non-domain typists to manually add the captions.

> Seen that way, the defense has to be against remote code execution, not against cross-process memory reads.

This doesn't always look like what it is. You have games that allow e.g. custom levels with map editors, and then the users download the level from the other users and execute whatever code is part of making the level work. This could be exploitable for timing even if it's in a game-specific language. Or isn't even intentionally "code" but still an attacker can use it as a Weird Machine to the same effect.

Putting it on the game developers to make sure none of that is possible is never going to work.

What might work without needing physically separate hardware is to assign dedicated cores to highly performance sensitive programs, with the mitigations disabled on those cores because they're no longer shared. The cost is you would have to leave at least one core for everything else, but that feels like a good trade off. It may even be possible to use the shared core(s) for the game (with lower scheduling priority) even though the mitigations are still turned on for shared core(s).

Yes I received the same letter. I did a review on Semalt on my website sharing my opinion which was not very flattering. Their letter said they are going to sue me for damages from 2014 until now.... however I didn't even have my domain purchased until 2015 and the review was obviously written even later than that. I removed my review from my website because I don't want any drama but I ignored their letter. They then sent the same letter to my domain registrar and they emailed me.

A legal letter should be very precise but their letter could not even get their dates right. On top of that it says to Sir/ Madam when my full name is clearly shown on my website. I can't take that seriously. They cannot even take the time to write my name?
I'm nowhere near Stewart's level of success, but I've done well enough in tech to own a home in SF, and I grew up in the 70's/80's quite poor in rural North Carolina with an alcoholic ne'er-do-well father and mother who worked a paper route. We were poor enough that for a year or two we lived without electricity and indoor plumbing. I did homework by oil lamp. Our house was little more than a shack, for a long time the interior walls were cardboard staple gunned to the 2x4 studs.

By the time I reached high school we had electricity though, and I managed to scrounge together enough to get a commodore 64 and learn to code, so what I lacked in luck in childhood economic and parenting circumstances got more than balanced out with luck of timing of computer access and obsession.

But the main contributor to my rags-to-(feels-like)-riches story was government loans that largely put me through college leading to a job at IBM. The relatively inexpensive public university tuition costs were a factor as well.

Losing weight is all about triggering the body's mechanisms to convert fat into energy, and not triggering its mechanisms to turn food into fat. Counting calories or exercising more are the most basic attempts to do this. If you want to add a bit of nuance you can play around with what you eat, how you exercise, when you do each. But the key thing is this:

We're all different.

I've decided to lose weight a couple of times, on the order of 20-40 pounds each time. What has worked for me has been a combination of generally eating/drinking less, concentrating almost all of that into a small time window, and a fair bit of running. But the reason it works for me is very specific to what it takes to kick my body into fat-burning mode, how fast and how long my body sustains that, how this affects my energy levels, my physical ability to perform various kinds of exercise or tolerate various kinds of discomfort (e.g. I don't mind running on an empty stomach but I hate sleeping that way), and so on.

Something vaguely similar to what I do might work for a lot of people, but the devil's in the details. My specific formula won't work for you. Experiment and find your own. The best thing about the recent IF/TRF/OMAD/whatever fad is not that it provides a specific blueprint but that it encourages people to experiment with different variations to find their own balance points.

Since we’re discussing mathematics may I attempt to generalize your thought?

You can forget lack of time altogether and simply think of it as a lack of resources or money. The problem is to date, lack of an adequate self-sustaining model to provide these resources.

In this case by “model”, I mean either a business model where the work was incentivized by profit, or a well organized community that is able to motivate its members to collaborate and volunteer as has been shown to be possible in other areas.

I've tested eating 3lbs of meat and cheese, and had no change in blood sugar or ketones. I don't have the ability to check my insulin, but blood sugar is a good proxy.
No I didn't; I said I changed my diet. I swapped out high carb food like chips and soda for water and carrots. I reduced my sugar intake by cutting down the number of desserts. But hey, if you want to believe that, you do you.
Thanks for the feedback. I made it to work well when users are in France but I need to make it work well for international users. I will think about what's the best way to handle international users (like having a default zoomed out map of the world).

How to use it is by dragging and zooming the map to look for markers that represent items, they are all in French territory for now.

I find it really depends on where you live or who you're working for. Here in Canada (Ontario specifically), it's a pretty big deal given that some organizations have to hit accessibility requirements on their sites if they have certain characteristics (number of employees etc.).

It's led to a good percentage of the work done here (both in traditional CMS implementations to custom applications) require accessibility not as an after thought, but baked in by default.

Makes it better for everyone, but without a good handle on what it actually means, and ensuring that whatever toolsets you're using (CMS, JS/CSS/backend framework, library etc.) also provide the necessary tooling as well, it can make projects run over time/budget.

Factor that in first, learn the tech/tools, and it doesn't have to be that dramatic. I'm assuming that common accessibility on the web/mobile will be expected nearly everywhere "soon".
How do you know an alien species isn't, say, replacing our minds with parking lots? If humans weren't so good at doing that to themselves (and then blaming external factors or "others" for it), I would totally look into that as an explanation for all this pathetic mess we live and worsen every day.

At any rate, the idea that you can necessarily rank civilizations of totally different backgrounds by level of advancement seems very suspect to me, like asking Dwight Schrute if a bear would win against a shark or something, only with a whole other dimension of near infinite theoretical possibilities.

Not sure what you mean by latest history. It's been a thing on and off for years. [0] Like all things in the diet world it goes in and out of style in the constant churn of the diet industry.

As for why it's not in the article their focus was that whatever you do calories burned > calories eaten is the king and most diets are just ways to get people to restrict calorie intake without having to count.

Everyone needs to write his or her notes to understand the topic, to include something that he/she feels important. Some people stress the importance of logical flow and theory, whereas some people stress the importance of applications. I believe we all learn by organising knowledge in our own way.

These can be very stupid questions; but I always ponder over it
1. Is this our assumption that extra terrestrial life will have same chemistry/ biology/ consciousness as human beings?
2. What is definition of Life and Intelligence for E.T life. The phenomenon what we call life can be completely different for E.T. being. This is more or less same as que 1
3. It seems we have also assumed that our civilisation is advanced. In terms of what? Is our definition of advancement (and also civilisation) applicable to E.T life?
4. Consider a highly advanced civilisation millions of light years away from us finds Pioneer plaques. Even after finding these plaques they don't (wish to ;-)) communicate with us... does it mean that civilisation is not sufficiently advanced?

That book changed my view as well. The section that got to me was the part where he refuted "calories in, calories out". Most machines have some sort of regulator that detects when power is low and will adjust accordingly; my laptop, for example, will reduce the brightness of the screen. On the human side, if a factory manager hears there will be reduced power, he doesn't keep going at full steam, he shuts off none vital operations. I think most of us would agree the human body is a complex machine that with a myriad of regulation mechanism. If it detects lower caloric intact, it's not going to go one as if nothing changed. It's going to adapt to preserve energy.

"I was recently asked by someone what they should do when they come across a homeless person. My response to this question is quite simple.

Fast processors work by “speculating” — calculating several possible next steps in advance before knowing for sure what the next step will be. Modern Intel chips do this several steps ahead, at multiple levels. It uses more power, because it does work that is ultimately wasted.

Large amounts of speculation makes sense for data center CPUs, but not for battery-powered devices.

The Drake equation gets too much attention in the popular press . First, the selection of factors is an arbitrary choice of basis that may not relate to what we can measure and second, we don't have good ideas of the values of most of those factors. It's a mental exercise and useful for showing certain concepts, but not a prediction based on observable data.

Cooler Master Readies New Thermal Compound with 11 W/mK Conductivity
I've done calorie counting a while back. It does not have to be very accurate. Getting more accurate is easier and more efficient after you do it for a while.

I realized that what I eat is fairly stable. There may be 20 different things I eat regularly. Eventually, I started memorizing the most often used ones.

I noticed that there is a pattern to which types of foods have what amounts of calories. For example, fresh fruit and many non-starchy veggies tend to be at around 50kcal/100gr. Starchy veggies got for about 100kcal/100gr. Meats are at around 250kcal/100gr. And so on. Using this, I was able to get estimates for things I don't eat often without needing to Google everything. I did look up things I ate a few times in order to test my estimates.

It is not super-accurate. However, writing it down is more important that writing it down accurately to the last calories.

Many parts of this process were not accurate. I weighed things roughly using an analog scale. I often estimated portion size by eye, as I got a sense of how much 200grams of meat is. I counted the calories using estimates a lot of time. It worked nonetheless.

After 6 months, my weight loss vs. estimated weight loss from calories spreadsheet was within 1kg! I was blown away by how close this was. It makes sense since things like your base metabolic rate and actual calories expenditure also varies, so super-accurate record keeping of food-in was not necessary.

You're right that being off by 100 calories systematically will force a bias. The trick is to be off in one direction one day, and in the other the other day. This way, the error mostly cancels out.
