There's a lot going on physiologically when you're getting intimate (e.g. oxytocin, testosterone), so it's hard to tell. However, I've noticed the same thing, and I'll also add a loss of appetite.
The always hungry thing is generally why severe calorie deprevation doesn't work in the long run. Pretty much everyone gains it all and then some in a 5year term.
Cannot read the article because of the paywall but that's very simplistic.

For example, just taking DNP will burn a lot of calories and will literally cook organs from the inside from the heat. You're not really doing any active work.

Same with caffeine.

Metabolic rates vary a lot, they found that in people with a lot of weight loss, they burnt less than normal people by about 500 to 600 calories per day.

It's certainly not the end of discussion, it's the beginning of one.
That's not the definition of lying. Lying is about intent. If you keep using that word wrong, you'll end up saying something that isn't true. Are you lying?

Being wrong is not the same thing as lying, or else everything wrong becomes lying and the word "lying" loses its meaning. No one wants to be wrong. That is where intent comes into play.

It sounds like some sort of obsession/compulsion thing.

It can get weird:

I once knew a guy who felt a need to balance left and right turns. He would count. After descending a normal multi-story staircase, he would spin in place to unwind the turns.

The rules, no matter how weird, must be followed. Unfortunately in your case, you're expected to participate.
They use 1024bit DSA with SHA1, it is not cryptographically secure! Thus they would really benefit from HTTPS, it would provide another layer of protection against tampering.

Oh and we haven't even addressed that their "secure signing" doesn't also protect first installs that could be insecurely downloaded.
It may be "perfectly fine" in terms of legal repercussions, but there are also ethical considerations. If someone knowingly makes false statements about someone else, they would rightfully be regarded as unethical and untrustworthy.
There goes my $500 gift certificate... Any suggestions on how I can recover that, or have it returned to the initial buyer?!
The guy didn't get lucky, the guy has experience and has worked hard. The same thing happens in software, the developer with extensive experience across many areas, that has studied tons of different things is more likely to solve a novel problem than the developer that is one dimensional and master of one tool.

I often see people say things such as, "I have tons of experience with language Y and framework Z and that's all that matters, who cares about trees, graphs and all that ridiculous interview questions..." The big tech companies are looking to innovate and lead, and that's why they ask these questions.

If someone is new to programming and begins by telling me what framework they are considering learning, I often tell them to forget about the framework and learn the language. The language is the foundation that frameworks are built on. Algorithms & Data structures are the framework on which software is built on.

The only time I frown upon such questions is if someone is testing you for exact syntax of the language instead of making sure you understand the nature and solution of the problem.

This is quite different from that. Read your link to see why: the mysql cache invalidated all cache entries if the underlying table changed at all, and only cached whole result sets. This program does things quite a bit differently, tracking much more than just "which table did this result set come from?"
In most countries, Israel included, you're not awarded citizenship when you're born there. Someone being born in Israel makes them no more Israeli than it makes them Norwegian.
As long as they can rack in billions of dollars with their current business model, and with no negative consequences, why would they change anything?

While obviously a cheap hook, it is nevertheless intended to convey the possibility that it is our emotions, our passions, our innate desires — all ingredients of our sexuality — that are the defining elements of our consciousness and, through consciousness, our intelligence.
The End
You have to take all these gloom and doom articles with a grain of salt. And take them as a reminder that all economic booms reverse. Yes, some are right. Yet, most are not. Question is which and when? We can't know and won't know until after the next financial disaster happens. Even as we go through one we won't know until months after it starts.

The last recession started at the end of 2007 yet we didn't really start feeling it until well into 2008.

Financial collapses are more like earthquakes. You never know when they will happen. But by the time they happen, it's too late to get ready so you better be ready to avoid a major disaster beforehand.
THANK YOU. I thought I was going crazy by being apparently the now 2nd person in the world who is perfectly happy with normal JavaScript plus slapping on JSDoc (mostly via custom vsc snippet) onto non trivial functions plugged into eslint. If I could make it fail lint when JSDoc doesn't exist I'd be perfectly fine with the maintainability of what I'm doing.

This is unfortunate. I would hope we see a postmortem to get a better understanding of what went wrong. This information could be incredibly valuable to other founders working on similar challenges.
Comparing this to the other sorts of post that typically make it to the front page of HN, how can you be so sure that we are the sane ones?

edit: kousun12: Love it!
Agreed... I will personally say that it's far easier for me to eat very low carb or keto most days than other diets... I'm usually 1-2 meals a day, under 50g total carbs and under 20g net carbs. Getting used to not eating/snacking helps a lot, but I do notice when I have sweetened drinks between meals or dairy I don't lose as well.
Coincidentally, I just ran across someone else trying (and failing) to get Google to update a similar incorrect line in their knowledge graph. In this case, the person is fairly well known on YouTube, and their profession line should almost certainly read "Canadian YouTuber" (as the profession line for all of her peers does), but instead it reads "Actress", which is pretty odd and inaccurate. (You could make an argument that someone who posts content on YouTube is technically an actor/actress, but that's a very uncommon usage, and as with OP, misleads much more that it conveys useful information. And again, Google, who owns YouTube, clearly prefers to label prominent YouTubers as <nationality> YouTuber.)

In her case she apparently got a response saying "our systems don't allow us to fix this type of error", she escalated, then she got a response saying "good news, it's fixed!", but it's not fixed.

If Google is just summarising info from other sources (and in many cases, they just repeat what Wikipedia has), that's fine, but in cases (as here) where they're acting as an independent source of truth, they really need some process for fixing mistakes...

Curiously, no mention of shutting down on their site that I could see.
I remember when this was originally posted 10 years ago.

I've got mixed feelings about this. It's not 2008, and there's no reason to expect another 75-year economic event again. On the other hand, tech and VC investment has more than tripped since 2008.
I am curious how and if this system deals with concurrent modification of the underlying database by other processes. I can't find anything about that in a brief glance at the paper. That doesn't mean it's not a useful technique for a class of problems, but I guess most installations are going to have more than one client. I guess some sort of cache sharding might do the trick in that case.
Anyone else feel super-conservative about databases? It's such a critical piece of infrastructure, the last thing you want is for it to fail... I'm using Aurora MySQL but am interested in alternatives. I can't bring myself to use them out of bug paranoia.
I read his post as less of a critique of the linked article and more of a wine.

I guess my comment came off a little harsh.

I was actually interested in at what point this should be considered intentional. At what point should Google be obligated to hide this (mis)information, or show some disclaimer? After one "feedback"? After 10? After this blogpost? After a newspaper article?
Boom, well said. What I have seen is that most of these cries are from the majority without CS background or those that didn't take their schooling serious. I have seen enough people without CS background who don't care about programming questions because they have taken the time to study their algorithm & data structures. As much crap as the FANG get for their interviews, there's a reason they are the top companies. What they're doing is obviously working.
Yes, but this is clearly a headline, not a transcript.

And using a colon in a salutation is recommended for business usage according to most style manuals. Traditionally, style manuals discourage letter writers from using a comma unless they are friendly with the recipient.
ahh, got it. Thanks for the clarification.
I think those Glassdoor numbers are way off based on all the anonymous surveys and salary sharing threads I've seen. For example, 5+ years of experience will get you 200k+ total comp per year at all of those companies, with many offers in the 3-400 range.
Maybe not in informed circles like HN, but that is very surely a surprise to a lot of people in the mainstream.
He was probably responding to the clickbait title, which uses the phrase "telling lies" as opposed to the more apt phrase "spreading misinformation".
You ever read about other people's experiences and it seems utterly alien to you? SSC had a post sort of on this theme[0]. I just don't understand how people can fail to lose 5% bf. Over 12 months, even! Just eat a bit less. 100kcal per day is enough to lose 5 kilos in 12 months, how hard can it be to eat 100kcal less than normally? It's literally one slice of cheese.

I have regular cut periods where I lose more than 5% in a matter of weeks and it's the most trivial thing in the world. What are these people doing?!?

Glassdoor is incredibly outdated and inaccurate. Levels.fyi has much more accurate data. It is still true that only experienced engineers at a handful of top companies and decacorns tend to earn these high levels of compensation, but Glassdoor makes it seem rarer than it is.

The Netflix data for example is just flat out wrong. It only hires experienced engineers, and pays all cash salaries in excess of 300k to all of them.
This doesn't logically follow. I don't charge you money for anything, but that doesn't give me the right to slander or libel you. This case isn't as extreme but the principal is the same.
The people employed by the banks were complicit. It's that simple. If Jane Doe applies to buy a $1M home, and no one checks her credit and sees that she already has 3 other similar properties, whose fault is it? Passing the buck on due diligence is such a cop out. It's like a drug dealer justifying his actions; "Hey if I don't sell it to her, someone else will."

People who work in risk and compliance NEVER get promoted to the top because they are cost centers, and prevent other people in the company from getting that huge payoff.
I find that I do okay (with keto) at most restaurants, usually have to modify a meal, but can usually find something.

The vegetarian centered places tend to be much harder for me. I'm allergic to legumes, cranberries and blueberries, and just don't do well with grains anymore.

Last week, I had a cheat day with out of town friends and I'm still recovering from it. It's actually worse than the keto flu when starting out on keto in the first place, followed by increased hunger after eating carb heavy one day.
The weight loss is not really what matters.
anybody can lose weight.
with a little education you can do it.
the problem is doing it in a sustainable way and to actually keep it off.

the hardest part about weight loss is keeping it off.
you have limited will power and unless you are willing to change the way you live your efforts are in vain. Sure it may make you feel good about yourself and your journey but it's doomed to fail.

i'm going to repeat this: if you are not willing to adjust your lifestyle and consistently make the better choices when it comes to diet you will fail.

also, weight loss in 90% kitchen, 10% gym. Do go to the gym, but if you are eating unhealthy it's not going to matter.

LE: while we're on this subject. If there is one thing you can do today that will have a positive impact on you for the rest of your life is to stop eating sugar and refined carbs. If you only do one change to how you eat and you do this, in the long run, you'll be most successful than 95% of "dieters". Also keep in mind that this is a marathon, not a sprint.
If you look at the box, it'll say active culture present. Any yoghurt with active culture will do. Once you have your first batch ready, you can reuse it.
Correct. Multi-version packages are not supported by dpkg. They are supported by rpm in limited circumstances (no file conflicts allowed!). Fedora and openSUSE kernel packages work this way, as an example.

The way Debian works around this is by doing "<name>-<version>" as the package name. This is a valid approach, though it makes package name discovery a bit more difficult at times...

As for multiple versions of packages in the repo, "createrepo"/"createrepo_c" (for RPM repositories) does not care.

And for Debian, "dpkg-scanpackages" can be made to not care too, using the "--multiversion" switch: https://www.mankier.com/1/dpkg-scanpackages#--multiversion

This is somewhat at your peril, as I've observed APT getting confused when it parses metadata from repositories produced by dpkg-scanpackages that allows multiple versions in the repository.

However, reprepro does not support this at all, so most deployments with semi-large Debian repositories will not have this option available to them anyway.
You are very likely to be out the money. The bankruptcy proceedings will determine how giftcard owners are compensated. Hard to say if it will be favorable, but I suspect they may be even less senior than unsecured debt (or they may be categorized as unsecured debt). Consult an attorney, but it may not be worth their time.
Not only that, but tracking alone raises a lot of awareness and a tendency to be more "healthy" or compliant.
"I think that in the vast, vast majority of countries (all of them?), you receive the citizenship of your parents, regardless of the country in which you're born."

For the UK at least, it's not that simple, unless your parents were born in the UK. If your parents citizenship is due solely to one/both of your grandparents being UK citizens (i.e. your parents were also born overseas), you might not be entitled to UK citizenship.

I don't recall the details, but IIRC you need to live in the UK for some time in order to pass on citizenship to your child.

The US has similar rules.
I'm a meat eater that's being won over by Impossible Burger. I could seriously consider going entirely meat free if a few other meat and fish alternatives came about that are as good.
from your linked amazon page important information: "This product is labelled to United States standards and may differ from similar products sold elsewhere in its ingredients, labeling and allergen warnings".

I've never had it, i'm not a tea expert, and this doesn't definitively say its different, but it would certainly make me pause.. Granted, in this case it doesn't seem to be an amazon issue as much an issue of the manufacturer, different recipes for different regions, etc.
Thanks, really appreciate you taking the time to extract those headers, very helpful.

Looking at the headers, it seems clear that the Zoho mail server does something different when forwarding the message: it also sets some parts of the headers (like smtp.mailfrom) to instruct the recipient mail server that the mail is sent from your email address, and not really from @id.apple.com. Google then validates not @id.apple.com, but (ME)+aml_=(MY DOMAIN)=gmail.com@(MY DOMAIN), which makes it work.

I will ask Gandi support.

Edit: after doing some research, it appears Zoho is implementing SRS (http://www.openspf.org/SRS) as the diagrams in the web page show, whereas Gandi is not. I just learned a new thing!

Thanks again.
There's every reason to think that personality traits such as religiosity, and indeed simple desire to have children, are genetically influenced. (Not that it's been proven, but that's where one should bet.)

There's no need to assume there's no gene flow between sub-populations. Indeed, the existence of gene flow would be why some genetic variants favouring desire to have children could become dominant. There's also no need to assume group selection - individual selection is obviously quite sufficient.

And there's no call for describing this as "devolution". You're maybe confusing the original poster with one of the replies...
Binder is really amazing for Python/data science tutorial authors: I have a pandas tutorial on github, and instead of requiring everyone to install a bunch of Python libraries / set up a Docker container, now I can just link to

https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/jvns/pandas-cookbook/master

and people can try out the tutorial right away! Before Binder, running workshops always involved a TON of installation problems and it was a huge amount of work in advance to figure out how people on windows / mac / linux could all get the tools installed.
It's a big step from "just `cat` the traffic to know" to "start comparing file-sizes and hope no sizes match" in terms of privacy.
Make  School (YC W12) Is Hiring a Head of Marketing and Admissions
Hi HN-ers,

We're the YC company rebuilding college from the ground up. This past fall we were accredited to grant Bachelor's degrees in Applied Computer Science to our students.

We now offer the shortest bachelor's program in the country (2 years) and the first powered by Income Share Agreements (students don't pay until they are employed). Our outcomes are on part with MIT and Stanford, while our student body is 40% underrepresented students of color.

We're looking to hire a Head of Marketing & Admissions to join our executive team and help scale our college from 100 to 1000+ students. We have a unique opportunity to create a powerful brand as one of the top colleges in the country and drive much needed innovation throughout higher education.

We're looking for candidates with most of the following:

- 7+ years work experience in technology or education
- Experience in a leadership role at a $5m+ revenue business
- Experience building scalable process and making data-driven decisions
- Experience managing a team of 5+ people
- Experience teaching and passion for education
- Bonus points if you identify as female or as an underrepresented minority (since over half of our students belong to an underrepresented group in tech)

The role presents a unique opportunity to design and scale the future of higher education at a sufficiently de-risked stage of startup. We're now looking to bring in an experienced leader to start off managing a team of 5 and help systematize and scale our marketing and admissions functions as we grow our organization.

If you're interested, you can apply here: https://jobs.lever.co/makeschool/baacbc2e-081b-49b7-956c-f33...

As noted in the article, it could be also be argued that Ted Cruz is a well-known Canadian politician, but at some point you move from "technically right" to just "wrong", and I think that easily passes it. Ted Cruz is not a Canadian politician, and it's not even technically accurate to say he is.

(The distinction between being "wrong" and "lying" I'll grant you, but I suspect the author is a bit peeved, and should be excused for using hyperbolic language when being ignored by Google's famously amazing customer service.)
