The issue isn't calories so much. Even a very lean runner like Kipchoge has sufficient fat stores to walk this distance in a fasted state. The issue is glycogen, which is necessary for maintaining aerobic performance. Glycogen is only stored in the muscles and liver and once you exhaust it, you switch to fat burning, which uses a different metabolic path and significantly slows you down. This is the infamous "hitting the wall." [4]

In addition, you can only digest and metabolize a certain number of calories per time unit. This limits how many carbohydrates you can consume during the race.

The idea behind carbo-loading [1] is to pack as much glycogen as possible into your muscles and liver before the race. You then top up those stores just before the race with more carbs, and then during the race you take on as many additional carbs as your body allows.

The faster you run, the more quickly you use up glycogen, similar to driving a car more quickly.

One thing that training does is to make you a more efficient/economic runner. [2] Your body can run faster using less fuel. I don't think we know exactly how all this works. Some of running economy comes from improved form, and indeed, Kipchoge has perfect running form. As well, your body's vascular system improves. You improve your mitochondrial volume. And so on and so forth. [3]

But at the end of the day, you eventually run out of glycogen and slow down. You just hope you've picked a pace not too fast for your ability so that you cross the finish line before that happens.

This is largely why ultra runners run at a significantly slower pace.

Lastly, metabolic factors[5] are only one many things that ultimately limit marathon performance.

I regularly join projects where someone has decided to place the project's code in half a dozen different repositories.

Even though it's one project.

Even though they refuse to allow a release of a single component - it must all be released together without forwards/backwards compatibility.

I think most of of the time, the mono/multi debate is spoiled by people who feel they can have their cake and eat it too.
I worked in startups for the first 10 years of my career. For a while, I was laid off every christmas. The first time, I freaked out pretty hard, but I found a job within a week of coming back from New Year's. Complete that cycle four or five times and you get used to it.

Solution to the Byzantine General’s Problem using proof of work is possibly an example. The basic problem is: how do you make sure that multiple entities, which are separated by distance, are in absolute full agreement before an action is taken?

If one is not trying to solve it in the fastest time, then an agreed ‘truth’ can be reached after ‘some time’ without a central entity. By deciding to go ‘slow’, a solution can be found eventually.
That was once true, but it's all been rewritten.

That’s a bit like arguing that Inteligent Design is a valid form of scientific discourse.

Just because Einstein unseated Newton, apples didn’t stop falling from trees. Similarly, if climate science evolves it’s pretty unlikely at this point that we’ll find that human generated CO2 isn’t warming the planet — the macro effects are pretty well understood at this point.

Let’s not conflate science with bad-faith denialism.
Thanks for responding, Steve. I understand that “ownership” implies the right to destroy in any language. The bit I’m not so clear about is whether or not there are other rights/responsibilities (such as the right to mutate) as the OP suggests and whether a definition that includes those rights/responsibilities can meaningfully apply to any language or just Rust.

Here's a poetic eulogy written by Kurt Vonnegut for his friend Joe Heller. (HN messes up formatting, but it reads well as prose)

---

JOE HELLER

True story, Word of Honor:
Joseph Heller, an important and funny writer
now dead,
and I were at a party given by a billionaire
on Shelter Island.

I said, “Joe, how does it make you feel
to know that our host only yesterday
may have made more money
than your novel ‘Catch-22’
has earned in its entire history?”
And Joe said, “I’ve got something he can never have.”
And I said, “What on earth could that be, Joe?”
And Joe said, “The knowledge that I’ve got enough.”
Not bad! Rest in peace!

This happened to me, in the early 1990s.

I spent months writing a very capable MIDI driver. In those days, writing a MIDI driver was a truly non-trivial exercise, as you had to have a MIDI adapter that fed back a 1MHz clock, which you would then program their UART to clock down.

That UART was also a pretty hairy bit of hardware. You had to program it with ASM, and the chip was set up so that a 16-bit address range corresponded to various control states. Setting control states for the chip meant a LOT of homework.

MIDI drivers basically were about as difficult as you could get, as you needed to step down an external clock, and set up things like ring buffers that were large enough to not trip over their own feet during an intense session.

Anyhoo, after a couple of months of working on the driver (and buying a DX-7 as a test bed), I was just about to announce it, when Apple came up with a package of OS utilities that included...a MIDI driver.

I don't think that theirs was as good as mine, but that was beside the point.

I open-sourced the driver, but the OS community wasn't particularly well-established back then, and I believe that it's lost in the sands of time.

Ask HN: 2-factor auth bug of Facebook, any recourse or advice?
After a series of actions, my mom's account has been put in a state where 2-factor are enable, but there is no available method to do so (ie. An empty list of available 2-factor methods). SMS was the only enable method, and it has been removed (by a hacky method). Just to be clear, the phone number are still useable by us, facebook just list an empty list of 2-factor method on login and refuse to proceed.

There is no luck from their help page. There is no form available for this case, even the one where they ask you to submit government-issued id doesn't work (it is only used for disabled account). Although weirdly, we can no longer view the profile of said account, and it turned into "Facebook user" on messenger, with all messages deleted.

The account has a lot of sentimental value to my mom, and I would really appreciate if there is anyway to recover it. Or if by luck an engineer passes by and escalate the bug.

I'm pretty sure they have budged on some of their points, and that folks have taken this as proof they admit they're entirely wrong, but putting that aside for a moment...

Suppose for a moment that the scientists hadn't budged. That they'd listened to all the folks who say that climate change deniers are simply liars who aren't worth listening to and not even bothered to look at their complaints. Who would you believe - the Nature-published scientists or the evil climate denial movement? Because unless you'd be willing to believe the deniers over the mainstream scientific community, it seems like we're in unfalsifiable territory here, where if the mainstream scientists admit they're wrong it proves they're right, and if they don't it also proves they're right.

Here is a list of all current best results in marathon for reference: http://www.alltime-athletics.com/mmaraok.htm
I think an illustrative example would be certain young professional athletes who struggle when they reach the level where everyone is as good of an athlete as they are. Throughout their amateur careers, they excelled by being a far better natural athlete than everyone else, and may have not learned as much in the way of strategy and tactics because they could win regardless.

I think another example could be very smart kids who breeze through school on raw intelligence and struggle when they reach something slightly beyond their natural abilities because they've never learned how to deal with difficult subjects.

I don't think most success is this way, but I believe it can be.
... thus making for the simulation of choice.

I like Google search as well, and I'll look at a bunch of ads on it if I have to, but I don't see the logical connection here how that implies we need to tolerate bad standards in web browsers or the android platform. Spin-off ads and search from android and chrome and search will be just as great and we don't need to infest web standards with rules that only exist to serve the ad business.

I don't practise any double standard here either. Same goes for apple. If they use their app store to stop competition by for example Spotify to promote apple music, break that up as well. The same thing for amazon, if they use AWS money to price dump on eCommerce or disadvantage third-party sellers, break it up.

I don't have any favourites here, whenever one of these companies engages in activity that is clearly bad for the ecosystem just for their own benefit I would like to see a very rapid and proactive response.
As to how it happened: FB declined to send sms for login for a week straight. So I tried adding the phone number to a different account. After doing so and verified the number, it was removed as a method of 2-factor on the first account, causing the bug.
> You can't call dibs on obvious features.

I wish that was the case. Unfortunately, patents exist and they enable exactly that sort of thing.
I switched to Firefox for Android after several attempts by DoubleClick to infect my device with malware. Funnily enough Chrome does ship with a setting which makes this kind of hijacking a lot harder. It was off by default and hidden in an obscure menu that wasn't accessible via the UI. Enabling it for everyone would probably lose them too much ad revenue I suspect.
> You’re using ban like this was something about the government silencing someone, definitely a free speech issue.

It was.

> But that case was about campaign finance and the ability to control how much money, spending, etc., could be used in an election.

It wasn't.

The law in question in CU banned corporations (including non-profit corporations) and unions from paying for any broadcast, cable, or satellite communication that mentions a candidate within 60 days of a general election of 30 days of a primary.

A non-profit wanted to air a film critical of a candidate. They were prohibited by that law from buying air time to show to their film, or even from buying ads advertising the availability of the film. They sued to overturn the law.

The case did not involve nor did the ruling change the law on campaign finance.

ACLU has radically shifted over the past few decades. It is an ideologue first and foremost, and a guardian of civil rights secondly.
The main driver of success in either model is in the tooling and practices invested in it to make it work in an organization. Google is successful with their monorepo because they have invested in building (blaze), source control (piper, code search), and commit to always developing on HEAD. Multirepo is currently easier for most companies because most public tooling (git, package manager) is built around multirepos. One place I see multirepos fall over is awful dependency management practices internally and in open source. Many dependencies quickly become outdated and are not updated in cadence, slowing down writers and consumers. Better tooling can help here but an organization needs real discipline to stay on top of things.

> wouldn't want to block

everything that distracts or sends signals that have nothing to do with the intent of the user for visiting a site in the first place is an anti-pattern. I block all ads and even obstrusive elements using custom styles or UBO cosmetic filters...

This shows especially well in older generations who are not very used to the information overflood and competition for attention on the internet. Mixing legitimate content with ads is the craziest pattern on the internet by far; and in untrained users -- most of the older ones -- this causes confusion, frustration and finally exhaustion with the medium.

We who are used to this are just the internet user version of Pavlov's dogs.

If you do decide on using it, I recommend editing the browser so it doesn't display tabs on top, so the tree style tabs is the only place your tabs are located.

I cannot emphasize enough how big an improvement this has been to my browser experience, once I got proffecient with it.
Seriously! The way to avoid Apple out-competing you on their own platform is to stop locking yourself in to Apple's ecosystem.
We do multi-repo. It makes it a little slower, cause we have to get commits into our common libs repos (there are two) before we can do app/product repos updated. Using the environment package manager (composer, nom, yarn) rather than git-sub-module helps a lot.

Runners are allowed to draft in a marathon. And they do, until the last 2 miles of the race.

Our research has indicated that Elixir has basically stopped growing in the general market.... really only getting any growth from converted erlang devs.

Have you seen anything different? Most enthusiastic vendors I’ve talked to have moved away from elixir due to low adoption and demand.

Tiobe, google trends, etc tell the same story.

I’d love to find evidence to the contrary but the low numbers of elixir devs seems to be both a supply AND demand problem... ie lack of traction and interest.
