CICO IS all that matters at the end of the day. Yes, some people may be hungry, some may have a faster metabolism, some may do it better with less carbs, some with less fat, some prefer to only eat within a 4 hour window, others may just want to lift heavy or run far. That's all great, but we can't do much about what works best for each individual and everyone needs to find what works for them. In the end it's all just tricks and moving things around to consume less calories than we use.

> If everyone went veg, we would need more farms right?

No, cows eat too. Think about it this way: to get 1000 calories worth of energy from a cow, that cow has to consume more than 1000 calories due to maintenance (BMR) alone. Moreover, one acre of land producing soybeans, rice, or legumes much more protein and much more calories per year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edible_protein_per_unit_area_o...

> How many more field mice/rabbits/snakes/whatever will suffer/get squashed from this?

Fewer as shown from the previous point proving that we could feed more people on less acreage of land

> Is this number comparable to the amount of cows that suffer for steak?

No, it's smaller and we get to cut out the cool parts like raping cows to produce milk and then ripping their children away from them.
If you look at Rhonda Patrick's work, she does the reverse: time restricted eating. It's the same thing, you give yourself 8-9 hour time window to eat (instead of having a 16 hour fasting window). I think she recommends skipping dinner though because she's all about the circadian rhythm and eating only when it's light out. But I don't think she has any scientific reasoning behind that.

She's also not a fan of drinking coffee during your fasting period, and she believes that breaks the fast because the liver metabolizes the caffeine. So that starts the metabolic process in the body, taking you out of the fasted state.

Most people skip breakfast, like I do. It's easier for busy people to skip breakfast. I think it depends on the person's schedule. I skipped breakfast before and tried skipping dinner. Both methods work well. Skipping dinner does make me bored at night. I had all this free time not having to cook or eat. That could be an advantage for some people.

It is not absolute that the "unhealthy" caloric deficit is daily basis. There are some researches[1] saying that you can lose fat mass while preserving (or even gaining) lean mass while fasting and doing workout.

> The objective of fusion research is to develop a power plant favourable to climate and environment. Like the sun, it is to derive energy from fusion of atomic nuclei

While plasma containment seems like an essential step towards fusion-based energy, is fusion-based energy a desirable goal?

Right now, fission-based nuclear energy is only used as a heat source for steam-driven turbines. It's a fantastically complex and expensive way to make heat.

Is fusion energy on Earth going to do something similar? And if so, is this source of heat actually going to be cheaper than using the sun as a distant fusion reactor? (Which is what drives both solar and wind energy on Earth.) It seems quite doubtful that fusion could ever be cheaper than solar or wind energy, the tech-to-energy ratio just seems massive in comparison.

So if it's not Earth where fusion energy will be useful, how about in space? Here on Earth, the Carnot cycle is used to convert heat into useful mechanical energy, then finally electrical energy, which is usually the true goal. But the Carnot cycle requires dissipating massive amounts of heat; just as much energy is dissipated as heat as gets turned into electricity. And heat dissipation isn't such an easy thing in space, is it?

I feel like I'm missing some rather large puzzle pieces here. Without them, fusion does not really seem like an engineering goal towards a good energy source, just engineering research into better containment of difficult materials. Could somebody help enlighten me?

Sounds like you did a basic pure math curriculum (or minor) at a high-end school, which is probably 4 semesters of extra depth than a computer scientist needs, let alone a programmer. State school applied math / CS does not cover p-adics.

Anyway, part of the value isn't in the material itself, but in the practice of learning hard novel ideas, not just the mechanical fundamentals that you could coast through because you are smart, but then hit a wall when you face hard problems later I life.

I used to live on things I cooked in a frying pan.say, lightly fry some carrots on one side of the pan in a bit of oil while browning sliced chicken breast on the other side. Add some broccoli, add a bit of water and let the broccoli steam. While waiting for that to happen, add whatever spices you like. If you're avoiding carbs, use something other than carrots, and add some fats, e.g. nuts. Takes about 15 minutes, is pretty good.

(in case it isn't clear to someone, the Rohyngia are the ones committing genocide on Buddhists in Bangladesh, some say with state support. Certainly no Bangladeshi army is partially mobilized to protect them like in Myanmar, even though yes, they managed to thoroughly piss off that Myanmarese army)

So ... 50km down the line ? Across the Bangladeshi border ?

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-21161354

Not that it hasn't been happening inside Myanmar too, but at a lower level than with state support, as the muslims have in Bangladesh and the Buddhists have in Myanmar, sure.

How long has that been going on ? Since long before the separation ... (depending on where exactly you mean it's between 500 and 1000 years)

Do I get a question now ? Why is there very little to zero action and attention to the Bangladesh persecutions/genocides ? Especially given that the death toll in Bangladesh is far higher over the past 50 years, more than a factor 10, than it is in Myanmar. Even more so given that it's probably just one single conflict, especially in the last 10 years, rather than 2 separate things ? Why is there zero mention of that side of it, and zero pressure on Bangladesh, hell, there are people claiming the Bangladeshi state is actually being paid to make it worse.

The history of the situation in India is long, sordid and cruel. We know what started the whole thing : muslim invasion, with systematic genocides carried out over hundreds of years ... the only conflict in world history that caused so much death to actually cause a dent in the growth of humanity as a whole. A millenial genocide, fought mostly with dull knives and systematic abuse and persecution of non-muslims, with so much death that 100 nukes couldn't hope to be it's equal, with the 2 partitions in some ways just being a resumption of the old conflict between muslims and ... well everyone they ever met, temporarily put on ice in India by the British colonization.
I have to agree. I figured it's because every day I become an even grouchier, old man, but I'm getting sick of people ruining my childhood memories with half-baked money grabs that can't even be bothered to try and live up to the legend they leverage. The chances of a Zelda show or movie living up to the mystique it held for me as a kid is practically zero point zero. I respect Nintendo for knowing where their strengths are. Maybe they learned something from the Super Mario Bros television show.
I think people who try to lose weight be serious about CICO. They do need to get a food scale and log everything they eat. It at least opens their eyes on how much they are eating and how quickly little snacks and calories can add up.

I wrote a toy compiler/VM and decided to fuzz test with radamsa. The language is quite forth-like, so there is minimal syntax and every program is valid so long as the words that are used are defined and the stack is balanced, which makes it a perfect subject for fuzzing. After finding some low hanging fruit almost immediately (segfaults), I let it run for another couple of hours.

Then, the computer started swapping like hell and became unresponsive, which didn't settle for another 10 minutes after I had shot down the process. Looking at the case that radamsa had generated, it had found a billion laughs attack vector. Macros in my language can be defined recursively, and the code is stored in an array that gets reallocated and grown when the code no longer fits, unboundedly. Radamsa had created an initial macro and then redefined it over and over such that it always referred to the previous definition twice.

I was optimistic about fuzzing, but I never really had any expectations of it finding anything other than stack smashing and segfaults.

Another thing is Nintendo's focus on intellectual property over technological superiority. Nintendo has at least 8 different game franchises that consistently deliver (Mario, Mario Party, Mario Kart, Smash, Zelda, Kirby, Metroid, Pokemon...), while I can't think of any time in Nintendo's history where they were ahead of the competition in hardware. They use their dated hardware only as a platform to sell games. This might be changing, though, as online play takes off.

It makes good business sense when you think about it; if you try to out-engineer the competition on hardware, well, any company can hire good engineers. And they're only going to be able give you the same or slightly better. But no other company can produce Mario and Zelda games, at least, as long as they defend their IP to the extent that they do, and make decent hardware and decent Mario/Zelda games at the standards they themselves set, they will make money.

That and the fact that they're sitting on a massive pile of cash means they be creative when other companies can't because their shareholders are terrified of negative numbers. Something American companies really need to learn. Lean isn't always good.
This is like saying "cpu instructions is all that matters [to programming] at the end of the day".

CICO is what it breaks down to. But it implies that you can start counting calories, mathing it out against exercise, and be done.

I don't understand what you mean here. You definitely can't expose Vulkan to untrusted code because it is designed to have a very high level of trust between driver and application - the driver is quite likely to crash the whole system on bad input. And there are countless possibilities for bad input in this interface.

So what you need for browsers is an interface that keeps the general ideas of flexible buffer usage and immutable state objects, but puts the user in a rubber cell with heavily padded levers. It can be done, but it likely can't have the full flexibility of DX12/Vulkan/... with memory aliasing etc.

If you spare half an hour to Google, you can find out what we want collectively;

1) Find global spending on fusion research and note it down.

2) Pick some other stuff to compare it to. Like global annual military budget. Annual profits of the largest companies and what they sell to make it. Or how much do we spend on 'entertainment'. Or popularity of Kardashians(given even I know that f#cking name...) or whatever.

You'll be quick to realize that the fusion is sitting in the corner, waiting for us to "want to have it".

It makes me feel depressed to see on every fusion article in 2018, there is a paragraph allocated to explain how fusion is different from fission and how it is not... basically not a bomb.

The topic feels home in HN, but I do not know if you ever brought up fusion in a talk with family or even among your young friend circle. I certainly have engaged in that experiment myself. People do not even know what the heck is fusion, let alone lobbying to fund it with tax money. In this state, I say, the advancement on fusion is rather stellar, I congratulate wholeheartedly anyone putting sweat and money in it to bring things to this level.

But no other (non-extinct) species can start a fire.
