I agree, this could be big. The health implications could be a driver of this, consider how many people there are with high cholesterol that should be eating less beef. And then think about how many health driven alternative products there are, eg diet soda, margarine, alt-milks, etc that really can take off in the mainstream once big budget marketing gets behind it.

So far they are pretty hands-off once the top level metrics around sales, growth, etc are established. We'll see what happens in the future or if we don't meet our targets.

"flipping" is a bit misleading; They'll look to sell in line with the timing of their funds lifespan. This isn't much different from VC looking for a liquidity event within the lifetime of their funds.
This is why I hesitate to even speak up about this era, as I'm definitely not knowledgeable enough. But I find it all so fascinating. It's easy to see these people as fictional characters, but the realization that they were real and all these things happened so long ago it mind blowing.

Be careful, ounce for ounce, the meat substitute burgers may not be all that healthy.

The impossible burger has more fat, more saturated fat and more sodium than the standard beef patties. Less cholesterol though. Again, by mass (their patties are smaller, so direct comparisons are a little harder).

Comparison chart about halfway down: https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/nutrition-environment-gene...

I know that the beef industry has a lot of subsidies (many billions per year), but how much impact does that have on price? Without subsidies, what happens to the $3.99 Big Mac? Would it go to $4.19 or $7?

Years ago I worked at a Burger King in the kitchen and someone ordered a vegetarian Whopper. We all looked at each other wondering how to do that when the manager came back and instructed us to make a Whopper without the meat patty. IE: A bun, with Mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup and pickles. This sounds a lot more appetizing than what we served that day...

Lumen5 | Frontend and ML engineers | Vancouver, BC | Fulltime, Onsite | https://lumen5.com

We're a startup (13 people so far) that is growing quickly! We're writing software that uses machine learning to convert text content into video. We've found that what we're building is very attractive to marketing teams from lots of different organizations and we've got tons of interesting search, NLP, artificial intelligence, video rendering, and web scaling technical challenges. Right now, we're hiring:

- Senior Frontend Engineer: using React, Redux, ImmutableJS, etc. The role is to take charge of the frontend part of the codebase, experiment, make big changes, and establish an architecture that we can build on top of as the frontend team grows. Lead that team as we build it out. https://lumen5.workable.com/j/982A995E5D

- Machine Learning Engineer: specializing in NLP problems like document summarization and understanding, topic extraction, and recommendation systems. https://lumen5.workable.com/j/964B167919

- Graphics Developer: Intermediate position, contribute to our video rendering pipeline using javascript, webgl, pixijs. Looking for someone with experience in digital content creation tools, familiarity with computer graphics tools, data structures, and algorithms. https://lumen5.workable.com/j/93A836A2D1
> a variant of the C language designed for incremental compilation

This is extremely interesting per se and I wonder why it didn't catch up. Is there anything similar available today? It would be interesting to know more about the original syntax of C#88.
Let’s say you run a database in a Docker image. That image will run at least two processes: a kernel and a database server. Whenever the database server wants to call code in the kernel, a task switch is needed.

In a unikernel, that overhead is removed by having only a single address space. You can see it as taking the full source of the kernel and the database server, linking it into a single executable, and stripping everything you don’t need, including everything the kernel would need if it supported multiple processes.

Is that a good idea? Not if the service you’re running wants to be multi-process, not if you trust your kernel code more than the code of the service you run on top of it, and not if you want the ability to look inside your containers (e.g. by ssh-ing into it)

What you do get in exchange is smaller containers (does anybody know why the image in this example is so enormous? I expected something that easily fits in 64 kB), a smaller attack surface, and faster boot times.

> In this case, "chemicals" is shorthand for "bad chemicals."

One problem is that lots of people include tons of known harmless stuff under "bad chemicals" because it's "artificial" (even if it's chemically identical to "natural" things that they praise at the same time).

Or put another way, the use of "chemicals" in discussions like this often suffers from the problem described at <https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Motte_and_bailey>: people talk about "artificial chemicals" being bad, when challenged fall back on "we just mean the bad chemicals", but then go back to in practice talking and, importantly, acting as if they mean a much wider class of things.

So yes, context is important, but is also manipulated in many cases to effectively gaslight the reader by saying, "Oh, _that_'s not what we meant, of course; think about the context," when in fact "that" is what was meant. And I suspect that in many cases the manipulation isn't even conscious!
You just said that someone is claiming that water and bleach are identical.

Let me put it to you this way, instead of saying "everything is a chemical": If you stand with the poster above worrying about "chemicals", perhaps state your question more clearly so we know exactly what we're getting ourselves into. I will even give you some examples. Do you perhaps mean chemicals known to cause cancer or other diseases? What about chemicals known to aggravate diseases or conditions? Or would it be enough to be simply suspected? Maybe your threshold of what is a sufficient amount of research should be mentioned. How many studies do you wait for before you eat a certain ingredient? Do all regulatory bodies need to agree?

That's certainly a lot of work going into asking a question, I suppose, almost as much as answering something like "are there [bad] chemicals in it?" What research is out there, is out there. Only you know what will make a "[bad] chemical" not just a "chemical".

Of course, if you know of a place that lists all the "[bad] chemicals" that you agree with, this [practically extreme] "lib" wouldn't mind seeing it.
>As far as I can tell my option is to lose my job entirely by not buying any gasoline at the pump in protest. Or write my local senator/congressman who has little control or care.

You can't think of another option? Then do nothing, but I'm sure everyone else will think the same and nothing will change until things will start to collapse. At that time, we'll all wonder why we didn't try harder earlier.

I agree with you about the dilemmas but, personally, I believe it's time to recognize that our current economic system refuse to admit that there are hard limits to growths so I'm doing my best to disrupt it. I'm not pushing others to do the same, I'm just answering your question.

> He says Epic uses such insights to improve the client experience. But coming up with fixes is difficult because doctors “have different viewpoints on everything,” he says.

This suggests to me they are doing UX design based on "what specific interfaces and interface changes the customer asks for." While common in "enterprise" sales, I think we all know this simply _does not work_.

And it's not just an issue of the executives who make the decisions asking for different things than the end-users would. They say it's "doctors" who have "different viewpoints" we can charitably assume they really are getting UX feedback from the end-users not just from executives (I don't really believe it, but let's be charitable).

It's that UI/UX design is hard, and "just doing what the customer tells me to do" never works. The customer is not a UX designer. What the customer thinks will help may be a "local miminum" or may not actually help at all. even if it is end-users telling you what they want. end-users may be experts on the problems and frustrations they are having, but not on the design solutions.

Yup, sounds like enterprise software alright.

Barbar /= "Barbershop owner".

I am really sick of reading about "carpenters" and "plumbers" in these articles. These are people who own and operate small businesses, with employees. We have a local billionaire (Jim Paterson) who people jokingly call a "used car salesman". He didn't make his millions selling cars. He made billions by owning the car dealerships where other people sold cars for him. Wealth comes now from operating a business but from owning it.
Openly, Inc | Backend Engineer (mostly go) | Ann Arbor, Boston | Remote(US) or Onsite, Full Time | Salary, Benefits, Equity | https://openlyinsured.com

We’re a currently 7-person insure-tech startup with 3 engineers: me in Ann Arbor, the CTO (one of the cofounders) in Boston, and someone who works remotely from socal. We’re building an insurance company that uses technology from this century to make insurance agents’ lives easier. We're obviously a small team, so you'd be able to have a large impact quickly.

We intend on staying a remote-first team, but we're also trying to start a small Ann Arbor office if we can find the right person to join me here. Having a physical presence in a2 will allow us to hire interns/juniors and mentor them and such, which is more difficult to do remotely.

I previously tried to create a live JS object environment, however I used the Self prototype model rather than the Smalltalk model - https://rameshvarun.github.io/protoworld/. Version control is handled through an implementation of Self's transporter which serializes live object graphs into diffable code. The biggest issue is that there is so much UI work required just to match what you would get with a standard text editor and terminal.

What drug can I take to skip paywalls
Since the introduction of cameras used at intersections to penalize stop light violators (made famous by a former mayor who ran a red light while getting a blow job from his mistress), San Diego has always been experimenting with surveillance technology especially thereafter. Those intersection cameras have been minimized from county wide implementation at its height.

Being a border city and a major military hub for the Navy and Marines, surveillance technology being developed by businesses here have been a response to these types of organizations' needs and challenges.

I could see backlash as this surveillance tech permeates the county and extreme edge cases are brought to the surface to be used as weapons for curbing implementation.

I think the main problem with the article is that its modest scientific content about the benefits of DHA is buried in a pile of overblown conclusions, assertions that consuming meat products is essential to good mental health, and innuendo that vegetable oils are unhealthy, none of which claims are adequately supported here.

Questions that might clarify the facts surrounding these claims are left conspicuously unanswered and unasked. Likely because the purpose of the article is not to to present the available evidence and carefully draw conclusions, but to support a diet based on animal fats by cherry picking from the science where convenient.
> The ZOMBIE language aims to provide a smooth path from ordinary functional programming in a language like Haskell to dependently typed programming in a language like Agda. However, one significant difference between Haskell and Agda is that in the latter, programmers must show that every function terminates. Such proofs often require delicate reasoning, especially when they must be done in conjunction with the function definition. In contrast, ZOMBIE includes arbitrary nontermination, relying on the type system to track whether an expression has been typechecked in the normalizing fragment of the language.
