It's difficult to sift through all the bad information about nutrition. It's too important to our health to give up, though. The variance between a good day and a bad day, based on diet, is difficult to overstate (not to mention long-term benefits/risks).

I've had luck reading primary research and doing my own self-experiments. For what it's worth, fasting gives me substantially more energy and clarity of mind. Maybe it does for you too? Or maybe not. Probably worth the experiment.
Can you please stop posting shallow, indignant comments to HN? I realize that's what the internet is for (or #2 anyway), but it's definitely what we don't want on this site.

We've had to ask you repeatedly not to violate the site guidelines with uncivil and/or unsubstantive comments. Continuing to post them will eventually get you banned, and I don't want to ban you, so could you please fix this?

Glad to know I'm not the only one.
> I am hoping the industry moves more towards engineering things, standardizing interactions [...]

Good luck with that. From my PoV, the "industry" has moved away from standardization ever since around 2008 when the "consumerization of IT" became a thing. Almost no meaningful standardization has been carried out in this decade. Previous efforts are being derided (XML bashing etc.) by people who haven't experienced 1990s lock-in. The web is driven ad absurdum with folks standing by and cheering. Enterprises are catering to the uneducated with "REST microservice" spaghetti, and younger devs mostly get their information from random (or even targetted) product blogs on the 'web.
I'm not sure about OU, didn't use them much.

In commercial tools, I would have a look at https://www.cloudhealthtech.com/ and https://cloudcheckr.com/ and there was a third I can't remember the name.

They should have good reporting since that's the only point of the tool, but they charge an arm and a leg.
Absolutely. They suck, they just suck less. With FB, you can _at least_ try to advertise to "small business owners in CA" and get a few leads for your SaaS.

Good luck doing it with independent ad-tech and their "data".
I would win one. Then write a book on how I did it. Win the next one. Then do a major reprint on the book.
Amazing work y'all - this is incredible and no doubt going to impact so many young hackers building things.
One idea that comes to mind is to try working on a project where incremental improvement in performance of some process or algorithm actually produces financial or time value for yourself or some group who depend on the outcome. Get closer to the user, get to know the user rather than receiving some task remotely, and learn how something better can save them time, money, or headache.

Tie your personal gratification to the result, and (in the 2nd case) tangibly through someone else's recognition of your work. That may be how you learn to value and feel good about performing more than is just necessary. Look to work on or create a project where the recipient of the work is not looking for just good enough.

Also, find a small team whose people can push you to see and value the extra effort, and the aspect of not letting them down. You probably would benefit from finding a mentor who could hook you up with some receptive team willing to give you a shot.

Good luck!
I've done a bunch of different fasting routines and exercise. There is a performance hit, but if you are not trying to compete it shouldn't be a big deal. For me, running is pretty easy on a fast (even like after 48/72 hours). Lifting weights is harder, so I usually drop the weight and do more volume and spend more time between sets. I think it's something you have to play around with and keep track of how you do with it. Wade in, if you do it at all.
Things are rarely black and white. You will find privileged people who completely lack productive traits, and you will find unprivileged people who are extremely productive.

However, I think the GP's core argument is correct. That is, as a whole, less-privileged people are less productive in a work environment than people from privileged backgrounds.

I think we should accept this fact and understand the reasons this is a setback we're willing to face on the path to equality of opportunity.

Is there a name for small(ish), self-contained programming environments that offer optional but well-coupled guis/tuis? I realize this is a gray area, because someone will point out that Tk and SQLite can be slapped on basically anything; but I'm thinking of systems more like Hypercard, Tiddlywiki, Jupyter, Org-mode, even Racket or Picolisp.

Edit: I should clarify that when I say "small(ish)," I'm referring to the number of discretely moving pieces and dependencies, not to, e.g., the size of a binary, or how many batteries are included, etc.
No. It actually has solid science behind it.
Maybe security people are getting tired of inconsiderate developers that keep shipping bazillions of insecure packages all over mission critical applications.

Devs need to change their culture. This behavior is actively harming end-users through repeated data breaches.
There is no diet. You stop eating. Drink only water (some people allow for coffee/tea but I think if you're being strict about it that should be avoided also).
Why not have the endpoints ship their session keys OoB to a centralized place / whatever needs to look at the traffic? Sure, there's more of them, but that shouldn't be a huge volume? (It is insignificant compared to the captured traffic.)

> The statement 'Just log it on the end-points' presumes complete access to those end-points and all software running on them.

There still has to be some control over the endpoints. Otherwise, what prevents them from negotiating an algorithm in TLS 1.2 that has PFS?

And I am not sure if you're attempting to address this, but instead of terminating at a more edge-ish node, why not just decrypt and re-encrypt there? (So, it is still encrypted internally, but the node can inspect the data in an authorized manner.)
(You seem to address it, but I'm not sure what you mean: yeah, having a centralized box decrypting your traffic means that an attacker that gets access to that can see a lot. But what were you doing in TLS 1.2 w/ a non-PFS ciphersuite that didn't involve a machine w/ the ability to decrypt everything?)
You don't know if it's a "valid loophole" until it's tested in court. You could later find yourself under prosecution, and possibly eventually in jail and/or with a business-destroying fine. If you are willing to risk that, because you think "the value of talking is greater than that of your freedom" -- I think that's actually quite honorable and respectful!

You could of course violate the terms of a sealed warrant or other enforced-confidential court order without a warrant canary too, although of course that goes from "we're not sure if I can get away with it", to "this is definitely going to be a really big legal battle, that _maybe_ I can come out of, if there's enough political uproar."

Using a warrant canary _might_ end up being just as much legal jeopardy, we're just not sure.
Where _succesfully_ also means that they didn't end in jail.

Edit: hail -> jail. Thanks.
Genuinely good Vietnamese is hard to find in Vietnam! and near impossible in Sydney - and most of the 'good asian' is white people fusion, there are two good ramen places (same guy). Singapore at least has proximity to the genuine ingredients.
> I don't have a good rule for determining how much either of us should be entitled to earn.

I don't have an objectively provable rule, but I do have one that makes a pretty good starting point: if you create something valuable, you should be able to capture most (or even all) of that value.

of course, no one just creates things from scratch. they use tools designed by other people, they use resources extracted from the earth, their productivity might be multiplied if directed by a good team leader, etc. if you take the final product and subtract all the tools, resources, and infrastructure used, you have your personal contribution. I think we should strive for a system where the worker keeps as much of their contribution as possible. some people's contribution will be much larger than others', depending on their skills and the type of work they do, but I don't think this is inherently unfair if you have first accounted for all the external things they have benefited from.
You have to sort of suppress other complex thoughts when speaking about complex thoughts on the fly. Most of the time, consciously trying to simplify individual sentences about already-complex topics makes them easier to say without really harming the inherent complexity that ensues in the conversation.

Just don't worry about making mistakes, people will almost always give you the benefit of the doubt about what you mean or give you the opportunity to re-explain something or to take a pause to collect your thoughts.
For an example of this backed up by data, the NYPD stop-and-frisk program has always overwhelmingly focused on black and Latino people (almost 90% of all people stopped in some years), even though they make up only 15% of the population of some of the precincts involved AND white people were more individually likely to actually have an illegal weapon (the supposed reason for the stop-and-frisk program to exist).

That's like saying there isn't anyway to prove or disprove a phenomenon of robbing a bank in broad daylight. It's beyond the limits of science. There was a quantum mechanical interaction that made it appear as if I was there, but I wasn't actually there.

We don't know anything with absolute certainty, we know many things with overwhelmingly great certainty.
Perhaps this talk puts things in perspective:

This isn't a 3rd party, it's the server you're communicating with. Just like your own client could do the same.
Of course, but it has everything to do with real-life availability of records.
When I was a kid I had The Dorling Kindersley Visual Encyclopedia. It contained detailed drawings of plants, machines, spacecraft, artistic implements, motorcycles. I browsed that book at random, cover to cover, several times over (it's a 450 page book!). I credit it with being part of my inspiration to build things as a kid, and eventually become an engineer.
People want easy. They want to take a pill and look like a bikini model. They want to write an app and make $1B. People want easy.

Holy crap, they were still updating Director as late as ~2016? I don't think I've heard anyone talk about using it since like 2000. Feels super weird to see "Adobe Director".

I always just figured they dropped it like they did Freehand after they bought Macromedia for Flash.
How does ETS break MITM for corporate LANs that are trusted CAs on work devices? Why can't a proxy still MITM a connection by terminating the client side, establishing the server side, and that be that?

Also, banks seeing their own corporate traffic is ethical and moral. Whether they need to simply find another way to read all data leaving their network is another piece of the story.
With my 5d3 raw video I get 24 minutes of 1080p on 128gb. But I have to use a really fast cf card, because the sd cards aren't fast enough. It writes at around 100MB/sec for 14bit raw.
good lord he's unwatchable. skip to 7:00 for something somewhat real.
I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to provide that advice, and I'll start implementing it immediately. Thanks so much!
Well, that was true back in 70's and this true now. If some brick-and-mortar business knew a lot about you (like your bank) -- it still knows a lot about you.

Ad-tech is different by boasting that they do know a lot about you, while in fact they have no clue.
And the processor that matters the most after the x86 is the ARM, which uses `PC`. I suppose all ARM documentation is incorrect then.

Also, in electrical engineering, the direction of electricity is taught backwards from what it really does. In all sources I've read, electricity flows from positive to ground, whereas in reality, it's the opposite. Good luck in changing that.
Finding a kid, giving the child some candy, pop, or other high sugar thing and hanging out with them for a few hours is by no means a sensible way to draw any reasonable conclusions. Isn't it pretty obvious?

> Anybody in America who grows tomatoes in their garden or who goes to a farmer's market where local tomatoes are in season has.

The commercial varieties are also quite popular for home growing and in farmer's markets. They are still often better quality than supermarket tomatoes, but they address expectations (including of appearance) shaped by them.

Really good heirloom tomato varieties are widely available, but plenty of people have never had them anyway.
I've done many 30-day water fasts and up to 10 days of dry fasting periods.

I used to get routine blood work done every 7 days while water fasting, but I don't do it anymore.

The "healing crisis" typically begin around the 12-16 day marks, so just expect them and embrace the healing :)

It doesn't matter if "screaming from the rooftops" seems to you _logically_ the same as a warrant canary. The courts tend to care about the _practical_ effect too. If the practical effect is to violate the gag order (because people were actually paying attention to you screaming from the rooftops, maybe), then... maybe? We aren't sure.

And dude, judges don't get disbarred even when they do CRAZY stuff. A judge getting disbarred (or even dis-judged) is _exceedingly_ rare.

A judge is _definitely_ not going to get disbarred for making a ruling _you_ think is irrational, but isn't actually inconsistent with any established case law, because it's not estabished yet.

Not even going to get _reprimanded_, let alone disbarred.

The U.S. just doesn't work how you think it works.
I've been doing 16/8 for a couple of months now and I was trying to think if I've noticed any changes. The one big one is that I no longer wake up with pain in my hands, wrists, or knees. Other than that, I think having more time in the morning is an unexpected benefit.

Better mood and feeling more energized through the day. Better vision. The latest is quite strange, but I can really see better, probably a side effect of improved concentration and calmness.
Has anyone used a warrant canary to succesfully convey the information it's intended to _without_ being held in contempt? Is there a list somewhere?
I meant in general. Many people on intermittent fasting adjust their diet off-fast in various ways to compensate for nutrition they may have missed (i.e. increased protein intake in the following meal, etc)
What are you trying to say? That the current trendy breeds of tomatoes aren't real tomatoes? Heirloom tomato breeds are very much in vogue these days as far as I know

There are scores of mormons that tithe hundreds of thousands of dollars over their lifetimes in order to become gods of other planets after they die. In my view they're just as silly as the person who uses psychics. And it's not just mormons -- plenty of catholics, jews, and others do as well.

It's easy to pick on people that use psychics -- but really it's not any more or less silly than a bunch of mainstream spiritual beliefs.
It's hard. And science gives really unsatisfying answers to many big questions.

Has anyone implemented ipfs with carrier pigeons and bluetooth memory pigeon anklets?

Implemented? Not to my knowledge. But there's an old RFC from 1999 for it: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2549

It was even updated for IPV6, which means that it's possible to have birds communicate with a more modern protocol than many major ISPs: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6214

Being good at math got me some "kudos" occasionally, but nothing like being good at almost anything else. Art (music, writing, singing) was way better to be good at. Even other nerdy things like spelling bees and programmer got way more acclaim than math.

Math, instead, got mostly derision from other kids and little to no respect from teachers or parents. No, "cool kids" never had even an ounce of respect for math nerds. If they secretly had any respect for them, they certainly never showed it.

And what's the point of trying to gain respect that nobody expresses? It's certainly not something that would be worth pursuing just to get that respect.
Forced them? Or they decided to ride a wave of interest and publish what they already have ready?
Nope! They meant furry art.
They don't want to compromise the endpoint. They want to ensure they have a record of all communications to and from the endpoint.

Did you read the GPT-2 paper? Frankly the english examples therein are much more impressive than this, and this certainly seems within the realm of possibility for GPT-2 based on some of the other emergent behavior of the model (e.g. inadvertent french translation skills)
Not an expert but I would not think you would suffer much muscle loss in a short (less than 1 week) fast. It takes longer than that for your metabolism to transition into starvation mode. Maybe there's some risk if your body fat is already very low.
I would probably generally use CTR? But you can chop this up in different ways; CTR is faster than CBC, and slightly less code to implement, but CBC (assuming EtM) fails less catastrophically than CTR if initialized improperly. CBC+HMAC-SHA2 is probably the safest thing you can implement from scratch.

People should just use Tink or Nacl though.
I pay a lot of attention to stuff like this because it's something my customers ask for. Podcasters pay good money to hosting services for demographic data on listeners. There's no good way to get that data: podcasts are RSS feeds. You see IPs and user agents. How do they know who's a 30 year old male making $70,000? You an try to match IPs with advertising databases, but good luck getting any sort of real signal out of that. That data is all inferred anyway. Hell, I bet my cell phone has two dozen IPs over the course of an average day as I connect to various wifi networks and Fi switches carriers.

And yet, people build million dollar businesses on this stuff. Blows my mind.

Edit: And yes, sometimes people play podcasts via players on the web. This makes up a tiny fraction of overall listens. It's not statistically significant.

They didn't totally fail to monetize it:

https://www.engadget.com/2019/02/07/carriers-were-selling-yo...

> Carriers sell information about you to data aggregators, which normally require the user to consent before selling it on further. But some third parties opted to sell information, like people's whereabouts, on to bodies such as bail bond companies, bounty hunters and landlords. In its original report, Motherboard paid an bounty hunter $300 to get the location of a phone to within a few hundred meters.
...and in this context they aren't compromising it. They're just sharing their keys so that another component, all part of the same trusted system, can also decrypt the traffic.
I remember being surprised when I discovered that most truffle oil is not made from truffles. Real truffle oil (e.g. olive oil infused with actual truffles) is a bit harder to find.

New Jersey Lawmakers Are Trying to Tax the Rain
> What do you do with maps with non-text keys when you're deserializing in JS or Perl?

Um, use another language? I use Lua, which can deal with non-text keys. As for decoding dates (if they're semantically tagged, which you can with CBOR) I convert it to a datetime object, on the grounds that if I care about tagged dates, I'm going to be using them in some capacity.

But that's not to say you have to use the flexibility of CBOR. But for me, having distinct integer and floating point values, plus distinct text and binary data, is enough of a win to use it over JSON.
A simpler fix might be to canonicalize (i.e. no "..") the public folder path and the requested file path and then ensure the public path is a prefix of the other.
