It sounded like you can rule out transmission through insects due to the patterns.

The part about color precision is similar to three-hex-digit CSS colors, where e.g. #5ce is expanded to #55ccee.
Since Google has named it 'confidential mode' and not 'secured mode', it is evident (to me at least, the word `confidential` means `me, you and anyone else you tell`) that there is no encryption. I won't use Gmail anyway if I am paranoid about security. I like this feature, hopefully this mode will also give options to decide longevity of incoming emails.
Lol. Ok, point well made :)
I suspect id depends on why (and how long) you're hungry.

If you're hungry from missing your regular meal, your blood sugar may drop and you feel lethargic.

If you're hungry from fasting, your liver may start producing ketones which our brains seem to like.

Right, but that's just regular metabolism. In the context of this thread, parent poster claimed it wasn't all that's happening and it certainly won't account for 0.5 lbs of mass lost during the night (mentioned elsewhere in this thread).
Maybe I should temper my response.

They test for drugs because being under the influence of drugs (including alcohol) is a safety hazard. I suppose if tests were developed that could differentiate between "I'm intoxicated" and "I smoked on my day off", the situation could change.

Interesting, though I'd not recommend forcing a water fast upon yourself, more risky than food fasting. Also reading, "I soon conducted my own research and watched as many videos about it as possible and sought out personal anecdotes. Who am I kidding, Reddit was my source of truth (j/k)"
Do consult with a Doctor and not just somebody on some abstract forum that may or may not be a Doctor. Everybody is different, what works well for one, ends badly for another.

Also going without water has a quicker and more serious impact upon the body over a shorter period of time than going without food. I'd personally not advocate it at all, but again emphasise that you consult with a Doctor before going on any such exercise.

In countries that the average HNer won't live in. Or visit. Nice things to worry about, but for most of us here it'll be a distant concern. And asking people to give up their quality of life for others they'll never meet will always be a hard sell.

Ditto.

This one might affect the first world, but I don't know of a strong link between 'global warming' and 'new diseases'. If anything, making the tropics less habitable should decrease contact between humans and exotic new disease carriers...

> and maybe even a pause for civilisation itself until things stabilise again.

I'm sorry, what? 5% penalty to global GDP by 2100 is not a 'pause for civilisation itself', or anything close. Unless you only meant to include the aforementioned "countries that HNers typically don't live in"?

For that matter, I'd say a "pause" is by far the least likely of "civilization continues as normal", "civilization pauses, but comes back" and "civilization dies, forever". "pause" just requires walking such a fine line between "bad enough to overwhelm all the systems designed to keep things running" and not "bad enough to make humanity unsustainable".

I agree, to an extent. Advertising can be overdone, of course.

My problem is mostly the tracking, but even if I ignore the privacy issue, I've found that targeted advertising has seriously reduced the value of advertising to me.
And the "Fission" project (i.e. running each browsing origin in its own process) won't help in that regard.

To be fair, they are working intensively on reducing the overhead of having loads of separate content processes, but the target goal I have heard about is still "only" < 10 MB overhead per content process, which still translates into 1 GB (!) of additional RAM usage for the benchmark browsing session with 100 separate origins (which is perhaps slightly more than the average user uses, but for power users it might not be that unlikely to hit - and it's not just tabs that need to be counted, but every iframe that loads some third-party content and therefore needs to run in a separate process, too).
> In D1 the priority is Sports, Academics.

That is an uncharitable overgeneralization. There are 345 D1 schools. Many, if not most, do not have that prioritization.
I don't agree. It may mean "A is two times worse than B at blocking wind", but not "B is twice as good (effective) as A" at it.

The argument you made is that "it's hard to solve poverty due to wealth hoarding" and the response I provided is to show you that clearly that is not the case, given the rate at which poverty is being solved across the entire planet.

So either you've overstated the difficulty of solving poverty or overestimated the amount of hoarding or overestimated the impact of hoarding on the rate of solving poverty. Perhaps the amount of wealth someone has isn't entirely relevant to the amount of poverty, since wealth is not a zero-sum game.

Resource allocation being equal is not a prerequisite for eliminating poverty. Kings used to have all the wealth but the poorest American today still has a much better standard of living than the wealthiest kings from just a 200 years ago.

It demonstrates a not insignificant risk but it would be from taking the most contaminated batch of the product for 4 years.

Ask HN: How do you deal with a problematic worker?
Quite some time ago I was in a conversation on to handle an ex-alcoholic employee, who I guess has since been terminated because of a disappointing job performance.

However, I would guess that even with a proper, good-enough job performance, the chances of that employee being terminated would be much higher compared to a "normal" person.

I feel it might be really, really hard for someone with past problems to have a professional life.

Do you have any experiences or anecdotes to share on the subject?
Probably. Still a better ratio than bootcamps.
It is still just calories in and calories out. Some people naturally have a higher metabolism and a higher basal metabolic rate. It still doesn’t change the equation.

Yes, it’s a well known fact that if you eat too few calories, that your metabolism slows down - and you burn less calories. That doesn’t make anything that the original poster said scientifically valid.

I saw all sorts of crazy crap that people believed would help them lose weight and tone when I was a part time fitness instructor like excercises that would help them spot reduce (no such thing) to people who tried to come into my classes wearing those plastic bags because they thought it would help them lose weight. They reported me to management plenty of times for not allowing them to come to my class like that and I would budge.

I assume you're referring to the "energy in" vs "energy out" meme in weight-loss.

Google advertises this stuff as "confidential". You don't get "confidential" without encryption.

One of the great challenges of long vacations for me is knowing that work is stacking up while I'm out. If I take a four day weekend, I can completely disconnect from work, but if I take a two week vacation, I'm either checking my email or stressed out about the fact that I'm not checking my email. Either way, the short vacation is the one that lets my brain truly rest.

When I take weeks or months off, it's between jobs, though obviously that's not an option for everyone. Those are the times when I have interesting ideas for side projects, books, etc.
Gaming is an activity that I filed under mindless, I don't play many games these days but I have in the past and generally noticed myself eating less. Typically when I play games these days I listen to an audiobook or podcast at the same time and my attention is on the audio more than the game, for which I'm basically on autopilot.

I never been big on puzzle games though, I prefer games like doom or quake. Fast games that focus on reaction time and spatial awareness, rather than problem solving. If I were playing something slow and complex (chess, minesweeper, etc), I expect I'd probably be more aware of my hunger.

I used to be a student at Holberton School, and I'm continually surprised by the support from alumni on this thread, both from those who succeeded and were able to find a job and those who are still struggling to find a job.

The criticism students have is not that we want the school to be ruined or shut down. The reason why a lot of students don't want to speak up is because they're still looking for jobs in the industry and are afraid of backlash or just "tainting" themselves before getting their foot in the door. Maybe it's irrational, but it's a real fear coming from someone just starting out in the industry.

The purpose is that we want them to be better, to be held accountable for the experiences that they're offering to students who pay that $85k. Everyone coming in to the program is aware of the peer-learning, ISA, etc. However, it's gotten this far because there were promises made that weren't fulfilled, and despite all effort to speak to staff and even the co-founders about the problems, none of them ever listen or do anything about it. One of the former students suggested a "Suggestion Box" and was told she didn't belong in the school. It's extremely frustrating.

They've held Town Halls where students have suggested very real, actionable criticisms but it gets waved off. What's the point of having a Town Hall? Sure, there are students who are successful, but there are a ton of other students who come out struggling to find a job with little to no support from the school. They accept anyone and forget those that graduated and need help. They spend money on PR and ads and parties instead of hiring real staff with legitimate education experience. Instead, they hire former students to build out the curriculum. The second year curriculum's all made by former students and is buggy and not particularly great so no one's interested in taking the second year.

It doesn't have to be perfect, but for $85k, it needs to be better. Much better.
Huawei has publicly stated that Ren Zhengfei holds veto powers as part of their shareholder agreement, so I'm not sure that their claimed ownership model actually translates to the same level of control that implies in the western world.

Not that ownership matters anyway. AT&T isn't owned by the US Government either, but I bet the CCP doesn't want them implementing infrastructure projects in China. Actually, we know for a fact they don't because their 'national champion' policy is well known.

Except it's not. The body is not a closed system. The law of conservation of mass & energy just means you have to balance your chemical equations. It doesn't necessarily mean eating more will make you fat. (Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't ... it's just not necessarily the case.)

Appeal to intuition: you can eat 10k calories of straight lard, and you will crap most of it out. You can do other things to "burn off" that excess energy, too, like build muscle, raise your body temperature, etc.

To be clear: I don't know to what extent (if any) the body does any of the above things. My point is that the "calories in vs calories out" meme is so inaccurate that it borders on dead-wrong.
