Sorry, is there something specific in that article that supports your claim, because I’m skimming over it and seeing lots of stuff that supports the assertion that people do indeed lose weight from exercise, that it generally requires a relatively high amount of exercise, but that it varies a lot between individuals.

> Overall, the changes in weight in response to ET without caloric restriction are highly heterogeneous and individual differences can span weight gain to clinically significant weight loss.

> Supervised ET studies which have demonstrated clinically significant weight loss with aerobic ET (without caloric restriction) have far exceeded the minimum levels of physical activity according to public health definitions. Ross et al. observed an 8% weight loss in obese men after 12 weeks of aerobic ET with no alterations in dietary habits(daily exercise sessions of 700 kcals). In a different study, Ross et al. observed an 6.8% weight loss in premenopausal women (BMI>27) following 14 weeks of aerobic ET with an energy expenditure of 500 kcals per session. In the Midwest Exercise Trial, Donnelly et al. (n=131) observed a 5.3% weight loss in men after 16 weeks of aerobic ET at approximately 2,000 kcals per week. In contrast, the women in the exercise group did not have a significant change in weight (0.7 kg) following the intervention, but the exercise program prevented the weight gain observed in the control group (2.9 kg.) Thus, clinically significant weight loss is possible with aerobic ET without caloric restriction, but it requires a high ET volume. For the general population, these ET volumes may not be practical or sustainable.

In general, weight loss intervention doesn’t work well. Most people fail to lose significant weight, to adhere for an extended time, or to keep the weight off for years. This is the case no matter how the weight loss is achieved. Even gastric bypass patients often manage to gain back enough weight to get back to the obese mark. That doesn’t mean weight loss is impossible, but it is definitely hard. Exercise is absolutely a way to lose weight, but you have to be serious about it and do considerably more than the minimum recommendation, or you have to restrict calories, or preferably both. And you have to somehow maintain long term if you don’t want to immediately gain it back.
You're making his point for him... waiting isn't helpful, since it either won't work out (and little value would have been lost if banned) or you'll end with regulatory capture and loose your ability to regulate/ban.

> is there a reason cars don't just have a single blade that goes straight across

Some vehicles have pantograph wipers which work horizontally, however that's a more complex design than the usual simple pivot, and you can't "park" the wipers out of view when they're not in use so they're more obstructive. They're sometimes used on car rear windows but mostly seen on commercial vehicle windshields.

Some cars (mostly benzes) also have eccentric arc systems where the wiper arm extends and retracts to cover more windshield with a single pivot.
Until I read this, Thinkpads were at the top of my list for a new laptop. But even if they didn't do this on Thinkpads, the fact that Lenovo did this at all, does not reflect well on any of their brands.

Why is Facebook more powerful than Google/Alphabet?

> I'm not sure that we as a society have ever dealt with a non-state actor this powerful before.

Amazon and Google being of somewhat similar or greater power at least tempers down that statement. And unlike Facebook they have really good reputations outside specific parts of circles like the tech circle.
You are smuggling a connotation in with your denotation. When most people think of "crime", they think of robbery, assault, and other violent acts. They don't think of disregarding various business laws or (to use an example I think you'd agree with) possessing and using certain drugs. To give another example: By the technical definition, Martin Luther King committed crime by violating the racist laws of the south. Yet one should immediately become suspicious of anyone who says, "MLK was a criminal."

The technical term for this is the noncentral fallacy.[1]

Not a big fan of this headline - it's inflammatory and incomplete. This is one (unproven and completely unsubstantiated) accusation from one side of the story, made in a handful of tweets. Kickstarter also tweeted, and of course denies this:

The problem with this type of link on HN is that it's not a 'story' - there's no investigative reporting - heck there's no reporting at all. Unfortunately this is a story is that most people will look at it and believe whichever side lines up with their personal belief system, in spite of a complete absence of facts.

The pro-union people will believe this is union busting no matter what is said or proven, and the pro-corporate people will believe that this individual deserved to be fired for other reasons.
This submission is a good start.
You could buy the services of an expert in medical decision-making who will negotiate for you when you're incapacitated.

Also, supposedly people aren't total dicks. At the moment the healthcare industry rewards a lot of psychos due to its incentives. Hopefully with a free market the dicks would be weeded out due to increased choices. Also having a free market means that there would be an incentive to make medicine more accessible, while still correct, because more people could be willing to become healers, maybe specialized healers. Who knows, what's certain is that we have not discovered the full potential of humans healing other humans and the current regulations are a big brake on new systems and innovations.

So, for now I'm ok with the whole single-payer/universal healthcare deal.

The UN 'investigator' never examined a model, but simply repeated news reports about the previous time the Houthis claimed an attack. That's exactly what I said:

* (A) believes the Houthi claims.
* Ergo argues they have drone X.
* People repeat they have drone X based on (A), despite the only actual source being the Houthis themselves.
>Should Starbucks be regulated as a bank because they let you prepay for a cup of coffee?

Well this might just be where we simply disagree but I would say yes. Those Starbucks cards are often used as a way to launder money from country to country. You can't transfer balances from one individual to another as far as I'm aware so it's not nearly as problematic, though.
Introduction
Hello, i am new here :)
I have no idea but it does appear to be Javascript (from inspecting the page source).
The union movement has a long history of solidarity, which amongst other things generally includes boycotting unionbusting companies.
Problem solved, use USDC. Not invented here but what did you really have to add anyway? A non-sovereign unit-of-account was just a bad idea for consumer adoption anyway. We still have issues with financial literacy here, why not seek simplicity? I'll tell you why not, because it doesn't satisfy someone's career advancement metrics forced on them by a misguided peer-review/stack-ranking system. What other justification was there to use Libra in lieu of anything else?
And even if the start of your career feels meaningful or fun, you'll possibly (probably?) "grow" into a position where that's no longer true. I enjoyed writing software, but after 15-20 years, they expected me to spend most of my time managing others (which I was bad at) or working with customers (which I hated). That greatly reduced my happiness, and so I retired early (mid forties) to get out of it.

Maybe I could've told them, "Don't raise my salary and increase your expectations", but that never really seemed like an option.
That looks like a linear motor, which unless I'm missing something is spectacularly power hungry.

By the looks of it, it also need linear bearings, which are difficult to seal against leaves, dirt, moss, ice and snow.

I'm going to wager £20 and say its not a game changer.
> The design of Chaosnet was greatly simplified by ignoring problems irrelevant to local networks. Chaosnet contains no special provisions for things such as low-speed links, noisy (very high error-rate) links, multiple paths, and long-distance links with significant transit time.

Apologies for going off-topic but it's interesting reading this carefully optimized <1 mile local network compared to how difficult it has been for so long to do basic file transfers and interaction between devices on a local network. ie, transferring photos from a phone or DSLR camera to a laptop and interacting with annoying printers.

I understand the security barriers and some of the legacy reasons why with NAT and whatnot but even modern solutions like Airdrop still have a less-than-desired UX and performance. It's randomly slow, regardless of how fast our network is capable of being.

I just want a cross platform rsync style program built directly into the OS as a first-class citizen, that doesn't require complex setups or configuration, with watching/syncing, while being something a non-technical person can use.

I still default to using HTTP cloud services like Mega/Firefox Send to send basic files as I at least know it will have predictable and reliable performance. And on linux I always set up local SSH servers on everything which comes with its own maintenance baggage.

Admittedly I haven't dug into solving this problem in recent times and tried to find modern solutions (other than Bittorrent Sync) so this may be a dated critique. But just looking at OS level stuff.
What are the pros/cons of using a custom built language/parser such as this(or others like googles gRPC IDL, etc), versus simply creating a DSL(Domain Specific Language) using an existing language like Kotlin,Scala et?

I feel that leveraging an existing language with good DSL support, along with an existing IDE (e.g. IntelliJ) would be a lot more pragmatic, easier to support and to potentially maintain.
They absolutely are. Three cameras above the rear view mirror are kept clear by the wipers.

I know, that's unfortunate. I think I learned only later about Eli Bendersky's pycparser and then I was too lazy to change the name, although you are right, I should have. But as my project is mostly a toy project at the moment, and not sure if this will every get serious usage, I'm not sure if this is too critical. Also, whoever searches for pycparser, and ends up at this homepage, will find the link to the real pycparser project right there in the readme. Both projects are quite old btw. I just checked. Eli Bendersky's pycparser is from May 2010 (or that was the first Git commit, which seems to be an import from an SVN repo), and I started mine in June 2011. I never really got any complaints about confusions.
Ignoring for the moment the non-salary benefits of a union: Look at it this way - aren't corporate profits quite high already? Yet they still merge and consolidate and cut costs and try to increase them further.

Why should labor not do the same?

Also, this seems like a reasonable question (with source for the claim!), that no doubt many others would share. I don't think the downvotes are warranted.
I've been reading "jump pay" as a compound noun.

> American unions have a history of creating an adversarial relationship between managers and employees

But it seems like with this sort of reaction, it's the companies who are feeding an adversarial relationship.
Companies responding to labor organization in the US have had crazy, even violent reactions. Perhaps rather than justifying why American companies are so afraid of unions, it would be enlightening to ask why American workers feel so positively about employers?

The connection between kiteboarding and hackers might be a bit far fetched, but somehow there are many entrepreneurs who are into the sport. There is a Founders Kite Club, exclusively for entrepreneurs who kitesurf. In the Netherlands we have an Kiteangels community, who do regular kitesurfing "downwinders" along our coast, kitesurfing trips and network for our businesses.

Kitesurfing is now more or less mature, the hacking is now happening in foils: surf foiling, wing foiling, sup foiling, e-foiling, many people are tinkering and hacking to invent new sports.

I would recommend strongly against freelancing. Instead, try and join up with a remote team. YouTeam.com might be relevant.

Find a team where you are a specialist, you'll earn a higher hourly rate and probably have a lot less stress.

Try to pair up with a few different groups until you find one that you love, then stick with that one.

Source: I did a lot of freelancing in the 2000's before joining up with a larger consultancy and the latter earned me probably 3x hourly rate, the projects were more interesting for bigger companies, and the coworkers became friends for life.

What are the chances of three people trying to unionize in a company being fired in a very short span of time for 'performance' reasons? Are you holding out until the company says 'Ok, caught, yes, we did fire them for trying to unionize'?
There's a good movie called, "Flash of Genius" about the inventor of the intermittent windshield wiper and his efforts to defend himself against the theft of his idea.

Tesla mentions that the mechanical components of the traditional wiper blade create a lot of friction, which requires more power to the motor that moves the arm back and forth.

I thought it was the friction of the wipers themselves on the glass that takes the most power...

In any case, some research reveals that typical wiper motors are <50W, which even if that was reduced to 0, would be an insignificant fraction of the total power draw of an EV, the motor powering the car being capable of over 200kW (200000W). I doubt this is going to have much of an effect on the overall range.
That's precisely the right decision if those industries have national significance.
The Houthi rebels and Iran are intimately connected; if Iran has the capability, that lends support to the idea that the Houthis could have carried out the attack, since the Houthis are extensively equipped, trained, funded, and otherwise supported by Iran.

Yeah, but for legal purposes it doesn't matter if "everyone knows" about the real reasons.

The company gets to have it both ways. Send a message that unionization isn't tolerated, while saying in court that unionization had nothing to do with the firings.

It's interesting that you latched onto this rather than something more feasible for most people, like a smaller house or not having a car. This way you can dismiss my critique out of hand, and continue with your present lifestyle while pretending to care. Cognitive dissonance is a powerful thing.

Slate published an article about this on Thursday that has a lot more information and background: https://slate.com/technology/2019/09/kickstarter-turmoil-uni...

I haven't seen that, maybe if you manually request a scan, then.
My spouse is an engineer and we often talk about the engineering ethics module where students were taught to think about such things using examples like the Ford Pinto, the O-rings on the space shuttle etc.

If you had worked at Ford and designed, say, the steering wheel or transmission of the Pinto, you might well be excused for not appreciating the flaws in its design. But if you were one of the engineers that was asked to put the gas tank up near the rear fender where it was much likelier to rupture in the event of a wholly foreseeable collision, then you had a responsibility to consider and push back against cost-saving measures that were likely to jeopardize riders' safety.

In general, if a manager is telling you not to worry about something, it's shady.

OT: have you ever noticed that most scifi movies depict futuristic cars that can hover or fly but which still use traditional windscreen wipers. You'd have thought they'd add a force field that repels rain or a special coating but no, traditional wipers. Even Bladerunner 2048 did this.
Unreliable how???

My family were a Citroen (hydropneumatic suspension ftw) family growing up, so we had a variety of 'monobladed' cars, the wipers weren't one of the unreliable parts.
There are a few reasons:

1) having a single attaching point for the wipers makes designing stuff around it more simple

2) accurate curved tracks that match windscreens are hard to manufacture, secure and keep in shape

3) Keeping constant force for all parts of the windscreen is much harder with a track (high and low spots, change the window screen, the track needs adjusting too)

4) standard bearings are much more simple to seal

5) linear bearing as a pain to seal

6) tracks are much harder to seal against the weather

7) tracks need more lubrication

One thing I don't see mentioned here is how important for history it is to be compatible with those old mad. WC3 was where the tower defense game was invented, where DOTA was invented, and where a dozen other smaller sub-genres of games were invented. Being able to play those again will be incredibly important for future generations.
Silicon blades are awesome, you need to be diligent about cleaning the windshield but the blade material is more of a game changer than the motor or wiper orientation to me.
Pretty likely that the kind of person trying to unionize at a company isn't fully focused on doing their work for the company.
In modern systems, ptrace requires root even if attaching to the same user. So this hole has been closed.
The unions are so adverserial because in the past capital sent literal paramilitaries to murder union members. See the crap the Pinkertons pulled.

I'm guessing the person you're replying to understands the implication of changing a UI. Maybe, instead of telling them why they're wrong, you could ask them if resistance to UI changes was the problem, or something else was? They were there. Were you?
I should add generally here - you'll have younger people who exceed their years and older people with more enthusiasm and energy than the former.

Experience is really about making mistakes and learning from them and that takes time - there's really no substitute. People who are ahead of their years usually started earlier and worked harder at it.

So the problems I see are a team that's all one or the other and generally that's not good -- it's impossible to find a group of 10 new-grad engineers who all over-perform their age by 10 years.
No, it won't make commercial aviation a thing of the past. It will make any degree of privacy a thing of the past. This kind of thing will lead to an absolute panopticon police state, and one with popular support. Every single thing you do, read, or buy will be monitored, as will all travel. There will be cameras and sensors literally everywhere, even hidden in wilderness areas. Or maybe you will be required to be implanted with one.
