> When you pour liquid cooking oil into a pan, there's a good chance you're using polyunsaturated fat. Corn oil, sunflower oil, and safflower oil are common examples. Polyunsaturated fats are essential fats.

Why would refined oils from sources that wouldn't have been available to man for 99.9% of human and pre-human existence be recommended at all? This article does nothing but repeat most of the same tropes as espoused for the past half century with no real supporting data behind it.

> A causal relation between total and LDL cholesterol in blood and CAD has long been accepted. However, despite the strength of the relation between circulating concentrations of LDL cholesterol and heart disease, one should not assume that the relation between saturated fatty acid intake and heart disease is equally strong.

...

> Considerable evidence indicates that dietary saturated fats support the enhancement of HDL metabolism. In a study of the effects of reduced dietary intakes of total and saturated fat on HDL subpopulations in a group of multiracial, young and elderly men and women, subjects consumed each of the following 3 diets for 8 wk: an average American diet (34.3% of energy from total fat and 15.0% of energy from saturated fat), the American Heart Association Step I diet (28.6% of energy from total fat and 9.0% of energy from saturated fat), and a diet low in saturated fat (25.3% of energy from total fat and 6.1% of energy from saturated fat) (25). HDL2-cholesterol concentrations decreased in a stepwise fashion after the reduction of total and saturated fat. A reduction in dietary total and saturated fat decreased both large (HDL2 and HDL2b) and small, dense HDL subpopulations, although the decreases in HDL2 and HDL2b were most pronounced. Serum triacylglycerol concentrations were negatively correlated with changes in HDL2 and HDL2b cholesterol.

> Those on a low-carbohydrate weight-loss diet who increase their percentage intake of dietary saturated fat may improve their overall lipid profile provided they focus on a high-quality diet and lower their intakes of both calories and refined carbohydrates. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01826591.

To take that power back means you have to do things yourself, and that means manage your own data. Unfortunately that is too much to ask of the general public, at least with the free tools available today.

I’ll give you that. I did graduate from college with a CS degree over 20 years ago. When I think of “advanced computer science”, I’m thinking of the leetCode, hackerRank, DS&A type of topics or even how different gossip and consensus protocols work.

I’m not considering design patterns, continuous integration and deployment, or something like the “Well Architected Framework” https://d1.awsstatic.com/whitepapers/architecture/AWS_Well-A... (not too AWS specific) as the stereotypical whiteboard algorithm type of questions that I keep hearing about but I have never had to endure.

If the typical school is teaching software engineering and not just theory, I find it amazing that graduates have never heard of unit testing, automated deployments, or even how to use git for source control. I end up having to come in as adult supervision for both types of developers - boot camp or recent graduates.
Too bad data breakpoints are not available in .NET Framework.
It's funny how people try to make "standard" mean something magical when it's not. An Internet standard is just a document written by a committee of people who intend to do what it says. They then publicize it and try to get people to go along with it. You can't keep people from getting together to write a document or from doing what the document says. You can just choose whether to participate.

If W3C chose not to help write the DRM standard, the browser vendors could easily create a new organization and write a standard anyway (as happened with WHATWG).

Browser vendors and website authors could then read that document just as easily as anything published on the W3C website, so there is no "burden" for them. There would be no difference to the end user. The only burden we're talking about is the inconvenience of setting up an organization to do the writing. It's a minor speedbump at best.

The upshot is that there is no way to prevent browser vendors from standardizing anything they want. It only gets blocked if they disagree.

Synchronous design tools are very good at making all of the pipeline stages have about the same logic depth, which is generally 6-8 transitions/cycle but can be much less. The fastest possible QDI circuit is a very simple, very small WCHB buffer which has 6 transitions/cycle. Most QDI logic will have 10-14 transitions/cycle.

Also, the speed of a linear pipeline is limited to the slowest stage in the pipeline whether or not you use clockless. Clockless only helps pipeline speed when you have a complex network.

I'm in the same boat with the text files in a dropbox folder. I thought about just emailing myself notes to a notes-only account, but I'm not sure there much of an advantage there over Dropbox. Still, files in a folder checks all the boxes for me. Compatible with everything forever, can organize and reorganize as creatively as I want, lightweight, can search my notes and sort a bunch of different ways, and osx even supports tags.

Granted, this is a little clunkier on mobile, but for quick notes I use drafts which is the speediest note taking app I've found (opens directly to writing prompt, one button save or append to dropbox files).
Wow. Thank you. In hindsight, I think I did do an impressive amount of high-quality work. After getting a lot more experience, I realized that what I did was impressive, even though at the time, and for a while afterward, I felt that I was underperforming (even when I was repeatedly assessed as a top performer). This is a recurring pattern for me. For example, I often don't realize the true value of my articles until I read them much later, with a perspective as if I myself did not write them.

I have written a lot about the topics that you're covering, actually tons on it. I have written about motivation, success, and imposter syndrome, and I will continue to do so.

Yeah, some people seem to think I'm arrogant or bragging or "narcissistic," without apparently understanding what that really means. I have spent 16 years in therapy learning to give less of a shit about that stuff, to not take responsibility for other people's emotional reactions. I'm also trying to be as honest and truthful as possible in my articles. I do also enjoy being visible, and I like inspiring others to achieve their full potential.

And I agree: the skills that lead to amazing quality and volume of work are things like focus, conscientiousness, persistence, and self-awareness. I have written extensively about this. All of these attributes are learnable. I believe that anyone can achieve at very high levels compared with the current bar. I'm not special at all.

Convenient, but anything truly important requires multiple forms of notification anyway since you might not be in front of your browser. I usually set sticky reminders (e.g. order more contacts) to send an email, and do-it-now reminders (e.g. ZeroPage Homebrew is live on Twitch now!) to both email and SMS. Browser notifications are pretty redundant after that, but nothing's wrong with having multiple fail-safes if you're really paranoid about forgetting something.
The point about what is in the right spirit is important to discuss, however,
there's also a lot wrong in this article. The thing that bugs me the
most is misrepresenting FSF.

1. Attributes this https://fsfe.org/news/2019/news-20190326-01.en.html
to the fsf. That is not the fsf, but the fsfe, which is independent from
fsf.

2. I don't think that fsfe press release "supports expanding
copyright".

3. "The FSF didn’t move to GitHub because GitHub is proprietary, and
they see that as inconsistent with their values." Thats not correct. For
starters, see https://www.gnu.org/software/repo-criteria.en.html

4. "If a company were to add a proprietary feature to an open source
project, yet pays five employees to develop the open source part
further, the FSF sees this as a tragedy." Wrong. First, FSF accepts
donations from proprietary software companies, so it's participating in
in a tragedy? FSF does not say things like: "The FSF believe because
your born, you're going to use nonfree software, which is bad, so being
born is a tragedy."

5. Look at what fsf and osi say about "open source" vs "free software"
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point....,
https://opensource.org/faq, and neither say that permissive or copyleft
being any part of the of it, so its definitely not the main thing
like the article describes.

> Some of the Old LookML syntax is an exact copy.

I met the online Looker demo a few years ago when I was looking for a business intelligence tool for another project.

Looker has a closed source code, so I did not see what algorithm is used to build queries.

I kept those LookML features that I understood and liked. However, in some places LookML is confusing (for example - references and aliases). I made them differently.

Later Looker quit using YAML.

> Very few BI products have actually surpassed 100 users at target installations. And beyond 1,000 is a real challenge that only few, and even then with a lot of assistance, can support: Tableau, Looker, Microstrategy, maybe Birst, maybe Domo.

Scaling that size is not a top priority right now.

> Also, a combination of BI with LookML is a complicated product.

You should have told me this a couple of years ago. It seemed pretty simple.

> So with all that, the question is, is it really worth the struggle?

Yes, If people will use it.

> What's the end vision for supporting this?

In future - maybe "skinny" or "thin" option mentioned here - https://medium.com/open-consensus/2-open-core-definition-exa...

If you can not afford Looker (like me) and want to use similar product.
I agree. Personally, I'm very annoyed with myself at times at the tendencies that drive me that are constantly at odds with productivity or good health etc etc. as like you said it, evolution does not have the capacity to care about the desires of humans. In a macro-scale sense, humans figuring out how to overcome this is a type of evolution via intellect possibly as our intellect results in tools etc. via evolution.
Let's add the US Congress and the EU to the long list of parties to blame for the DRM situation. "Reverse engineering" software for the purposes of "circumventing" copyright is illegal.

"Circumventing" is much more broadly defined than it should be.

It's not just illegal to redistribute copyrighted material. That's the point of copyright and has been the case for a long time. It's also illegal to watch/consume content yourself in any way that the copyright-holder didn't explicitly enable, even if you have a general right to watch/consume that content. You're not allowed to create a browser that can watch DRM-protected Netflix content. And if someone does create such a browser, it's illegal for you to use it, even if you pay for a Netflix subscription.

That's pretty new (circa 1996 or so).

In 2002 I went to see Lawrence Lessig argue the Supreme Court challenge of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which introduced these anti-circumvention concepts. Here are my notes: https://allafrica.com/staff/kwindla/eldred.txt

Mac touchpads have always been vastly superior to others. However, the TP Carbon X1 has a really nice touchpad/feel to me...close enough.

>the wonkiness on connecting external displays,

I don't have any wonkiness via chaining 2 external monitors via TB3/USBC - this might be a combo of better hardware in the TP?

>the lack of good color calibration,

not in graphic design so i can't comment here

This argument is repeated ad nauseam but it’s false, all it takes is a torrenting app installed, that’s the only threshold.

But back to the point, if Netflix wouldn’t use DRM, it would change absolutely nothing since copyright infringement is still illegal and those DRM protections are completely useless.

After over 30 years of Franklin Planners, Apple Newtons, GTD, Sharp Wizards, Ecco (how I miss you), Field Notes, and a laundry list of others I have forgotten, I believe I have found the Holy Grail: a combination. Leuchtturm 1917 notebook for the bullet journal, Bear Notes on the Apple devices, vimwiki for heavy lifting on "real computers".

Most of my time is spent in the paper journal for day-to-day. I use the Bear Notes complication on the Apple Watch to take a quick transcribed note that will probably end up in the paper journal. I also use Bear for shopping lists and checklists that I keep on the phone. And then for project notes, lab notes, anything worthy of an outline, or anything I don't want to hand-write or fiddle with on a phone, I use vimwiki. (I'd use Bear, but I have a Windows desktop at work, and Bear is Apple-only.)

To put it another way, there are three tiers:
1. Hand-written, used most frequently day-to-day.

2. Digital Lite: Bear for quick notes, or reference when not at a desk. Don't particularly care about long-term persistence of these. If persisted, often goes in #1 ('do taxes next week').

3. Digital Industrial Strength: Long-term storage, and long form documents.

Trying to squeeze it all into one do-it-all tool became a fool's errand, IMO. Sometimes I need to just hammer a nail, sometimes I need to split wood; one hammer won't do both.

Higher level OKRs are generally left vague while being claimed to be unambiguous and precisely scoped.

That way it is a subjective matter as to whether the outcome was satisfied or not (so that success in an OKR system can remain political and not meritocratic).

This follows from upper levels of the hierarchy to lower levels, so that in the leaf nodes where KRs hit specific projects, it becomes an incredibly stressful negotiation between the pragmatic reality of what needs to get done and how much bandwidth there is vs a stack of forking paths of ambiguous outcomes so that managers want to hedge their bets on all possible outcomes.

If OKRs were treated more like prediction markets, and bonuses or rewards were tied directly to quantified outcomes, then it would be like what you say (and also like what OKRs are supposed to be, rather than what they pay lip service to).

It's not the web that needs to be open (or "more" open I guess). It's the legal teams at media companies that need to be educated on how FOSS works, what it can/can't do to/for your products, and the legal implications of it in your dependency graph and your vendors'.

If you walked into some of these offices and suggested making things more open, they would laugh in your face. They equate free and open software with making their IP free as in beer, and since they lost billions in revenue when the P2P sharing sites first popped up they have no interest in working to make anything easier for the smaller guys.
