>If you take the bun out of the equation you actually have an incredibly nutritious meal

I would argue that a burger with bun included is balanced even for most low-carb diets. It's the addition of fries and a sugary drink that throws it out of balance. I was actually able to lose weight by replacing my routine soda/fries with an additional burger.

I was discussing low interest rates, not negative. But usually in the US when we talk about a negative yield we're talking about a negative real yield not a negative nominal yield. There is a "zero lower bound". Perhaps an algorithm would buy a bond at a negative yield but probably not a person. Or, a central bank may purchase back bonds at negative yields to get the cash out there.

Europe is a different story, I don't know entirely how they run their monetary system.
Most of those anonymous guys were rookie kids just messing around with powerful tools. Not all of them of course but even in Lulzsec, which was known to be the better of the lot, only two turned out to be the hackers who did most of the work IIRC. But it only takes one to take down the rest.

I just came across one of their Wikipedias and it turns out one of the Lulzsec guys was doing blockchain stuff recently that got acquired by Facebook and is now part of Libra which is a bit... ironic. But to be fair he later said:

> Al-Bassam has since been critical of Libra, stating that "the road to dystopia is paved with good intentions, and I'm concerned about Libra's model for decentralization".

This does not answer my question sufficiently, because it does not address this (posted by propater): "even if you are not doing any of that, you are still connected because you live in the middle of a society that reaps economic and material benefits from the structures that ultimately incentivise said deforestation.".

According to the aforementioned quote, you may eat corn fed beef and pork from Kansas and Nebraska, but you still "live in the middle of a society that reaps economic and material benefits from the structures that ultimately incentivise said deforestation.". I am curious what propater had in mind as a solution to this.
Firefox 70 will be the first version where enough of the changes that they have been working towards will land to yield really substantial power savings, with more changes yet to land beyond that.

No it isn't, and that study isn't even about vegetarians.

Studies done in the USA can have very disparate conclusions because questionnaire studies are terrible w.r.t. diet "in your study, "The ARIC study did not assess whether participants were following a plant‐based diet.", the average person eats insanely unhealthy (> 70% overweight) and the average american's idea of meat is basically fried bread with condiment levels of meat. It's further confounded because vegetarians are usually higher SES or conscientious about what they're eating in the first place.

So you would expect to find studies disputing this and also studies that find the health effects of vegetarian diets are not unique. And you do:

(2012) Vegetarian diets, low-meat diets and health: a review. Public Health Nutr 15: 2287–2294. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22717188

> CONCLUSIONS: The health benefits of vegetarian diets are not unique. Prudent plant-based dietary patterns which also allow small intakes of red meat, fish and dairy products have demonstrated significant improvements in health status as well. At this time an optimal dietary intake for health status is unknown. Plant-based diets contain a host of food and nutrients known to have independent health benefits. While vegetarian diets have not shown any adverse effects on health, restrictive and monotonous vegetarian diets may result in nutrient deficiencies with deleterious effects on health. For this reason, appropriate advice is important to ensure a vegetarian diet is nutritionally adequate especially for vulnerable groups.

2017 study shows "no evidence that following a vegetarian diet, semi-vegetarian diet or a pesco-vegetarian diet has an independent protective effect on all-cause mortality": https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28040519/

An Austrian study suggests vegetarians are less healthy and have a lower quality of life, and higher rates of mental illness: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/jo...

In Australia, which I think has one of the highest meat intakes in the world, "We found no evidence that following a vegetarian diet, semi-vegetarian diet or a pesco-vegetarian diet has an independent protective effect on all-cause mortality."

It's not just "roads". There are arterial roads, collector roads, and local roads. Everyone is allowed to use them, but everyone is supposed to use them for their actual purpose. The lowest tier of road is only supposed to be used for the first/last mile of a trip. It is not "efficient" use to pretend all roads are arterial.

Huawei Says, Without Evidence, That U.S. Pressured Its Employees
I'm not clear if you're describing this project or a conventional freezer, but freezers/fridges are counter-productive to air conditioning because they vent the evacuated heat into the surrounding environment (your home). This is still operating on the same principle, and no matter how poorly-insulated as long as the R-value of the freezer is greater than 0 it's not going to be helping you cool your space.

I've often wondered if there's not meaningful efficiency to be gained in piping the coolant to remote coils outdoors like we do for A/Cs (with a control system to vent the heat indoors when heating is desired, or even use atmospheric cooling instead of the compressor when the outside temp is low enough).
Article is from 2014. Year should be appended to the post title.
So, there is a lot of bad, anecdotal information out there about which is worse, AC or DC. The reality is that it _depends on the situation_.

In the case of shock and electrocution DC is _less dangerous_ than low frequency AC (sub ~1kHz). The "let go" currents for DC are several times higher than that of low freq AC, meaning it requires a higher DC voltage to prevent someone from being able to let go. The same is true for the currents where danger of injury and death can occur. DC is still safer than low freq AC.

This has been scientifically tested numerous times in both ethical and non-ethical ways. Here is a paper that shows actual numbers for "let go" currents and dangerous currents vs frequency (from DC up to 10kHz): http://www.wright.edu/~guy.vandegrift/wikifiles/Electric%20s...

In particular look at Fig 3 on page 3 of the above PDF. (One really interesting thing to note in this paper is that women have lower "let go" and dangerous current levels!)

However! There is another factor here where AC can be safer than DC. Fire safety! It is much more difficult to prevent DC from arcing and potentially caused fires than AC. This is because the zero crossover of AC which you mentioned generally causes any arcs to quickly extinguish at lower voltages. DC doesn't cross zero volts and will produce far more arcing at the same voltage.

This is why if you look at the ratings for switches, relays, plugs, etc the DC rating is always much lower than the AC rating.

As you stated, the vast majority of racing data is collected, measured and entered by hand, by people who are paid to perform this job.

Why would you expect them NOT to protect this proprietary, valuable information?

Almost all tracks publish result charts online for free along with race videos. If you want free, why not compile the data yourself? How long would DRF or Equibase exist if people could access their data for free?
