And I’m glad I’m not imagining it because room temperature butter that has congealed and separated from a starch sounds awful to eat while you’re strenuously exercising.

Rhythm had always been a problem for me until I found "Complete Rhythm Trainer" (android app). It scrolls a music sheet and you gotta tap on the beginning of each note. It kinda clicked for me and I could always read rhythm well after that

You quoted a line about the persistence of plastic being a major environmental problem, and said "Not really."

If what you meant to say was that recycling is only a solution for plastics that are currently going to landfills, that's a different discussion, but it's not what you said.
Thanks, that clarifies it completely!
I found this recent talk by Chrome's Standards Tech Lead very eye-opening. He talks about some shocking trends in the ecosystem that’s causing the web to essentially disappear from the vast majority of mobile devices being sold across the world. His main points are:

1. Most of the new devices coming online are using cheap low-powered chips that are not very well suited for running single-core JavaScript

2. The web ecosystem is not helping things by bundling megabytes of code on each page

3. Network speeds are not helping either: the average LTE speed is decreasing because the bandwidth is now being shared across more people.

4. Apple is deliberately restricting the mobile web by (a) not investing in safari and keep it lagging behind other engines, and (b) not allowing other browsers to compete.

5. Usage of web (as opposed to native apps) in mobile devices has fallen below 7%, and unless things change soon, nobody will have any incentive to target the web and it will go the way of COBOL and mainframes.
I know...and thank you. I just wanted to be clear I am appreciative of empathetic and kind people. There is enough victim blaming and defensiveness from the masses in the world as it is...I don' want to alienate good people nor harm the acceptance and understanding for others in my situation by sounding ungrateful. For example I remember how grumpy and mean most older diabetics I worked with were and it wasn't because they were bad people, it's because they were worn out from suffering. But to most people they were just "jerks" who were choosing to be jerks.
In my travels getting a long term residency visa requires a medical exam. I’m not sure how people think immigration in other countries work but it’s not as simple as showing up at the airport.
Lando: A Liberating Dev Tool for All Your Projects
This is a difficult thing to just say "I do this and here is what I did". People's body's can be very different. For example, pro cyclists burn fat and carbs differently than normal people do to years of conditioning( aka base miles). That high fat diet only works for super intense athletes. Try and let me know how your cholesterol levels end up. Haha

Food prior to very long endurance Activites is good to stop the gastrointestinal events during the event. So I do agree with the benefits there however gels unlike solid food better absorb and replenish carbohydrate stores so you can maintain higher/intense efforts for longer. Otherwise you could "bonk". But yeah... It all depends on the activity, duration, intensity , pre-training and food consption etc...

I race/ride bikes as well. So 250-300mi or 15hr each week on the bike( more if I didn't have a day job).
actually, maybe read the linked paragraphs. from what I understand "many Americans" have basically no access to healthcare whatsoever (think homeless people for example) so your statement might not hold as tightly as you'd like...
Cardio helps a lot for me personally. I'm a firm believer that most people (myself included) don't get enough exercise when compared to hundreds of years ago. It gives me a dedicated hour or two block of time to listen to podcasts, and exercise in general is healthy anyways so its a win-win.
There are a set of basics, given some tradeoffs are baked in.

On most machines, one can get a bitmap. Addressing varies, but the rest makes sense. Give people a software blitter and that is portable.

Most machines can make a sound, display a character, bitmap, take keyboard in, etc...

Now, if one wants to see closer to peak performance, yeah. That is a labor of love at this point. Asm, hacks, the whole nine.
I decided to do some long-distance (all-day/multi-day) cycling in Europe as a complete amateur, and quickly became aware of the feeling of running out of glycogen, so I just loaded up on simple carbs like breads and sweets, and could instantly feel myself re-energized as I ate them through the day.

Then, I think it was a few days in I'd been just downing pure carbs, was in the middle of nowhere on the bike and started rapidly feeling deeply unwell: zero energy, brain fog, heart racing, felt like I was about to vomit and then die.

Pulled off to the side of the road and somehow the thought came to me "... electrolytes?"

Luckily I had a small packet of electrolyte powder which I mixed with a tiny bit of water and downed. Recovered almost immediately.

Just an FYI - relying on carbs alone only lasts for so long.

He chose the most fundamental category we have. It all comes to life and death, by definition everything a human can experience or do fits in there. There have been great philosophers who have explored the idea.

Starting your career at great startups can create breakout opportunities in the future.

To make it easy for students looking for joining great startups, I have filtered out all the internships and new grad openings from all the YC backed companies and compiled a list. It includes opening from the companies like Airbnb, Stripe, Flexport, Podium, Front, Dropbox, Pagerduty and so many others.

Few weeks ago YC launched 'Top 100 YC companies'list and in the past YC started work at startup. Along, with that this additional resource can be useful anyone looking for applying at YC companies and can accelerate their career.

As Sam Altman said: “If you join a company, my general advice is to join a company on a breakout trajectory.”
Java is the worst language to do error handling. Let's just throw an exception and hope that somethings catches it!
And even when recursion does show up, the return value tends to "read" better. Like "the sum is the head of the list plus the sum of the tail." Whereas with an imperative loop, I have to either recognize an idiom or manually execute the loop in my brain's VM.
It's a shame that compilers were so expensive during the eight bit era. The built in Basic in most home computers of the era gave many a good start on learning programming but it was a huge step up in commitment when you wanted to go beyond Basic.

Speculation, but could have been: Going into the corner too hot, coming out of the corner too hot (throttle induced oversteer), or just not knowing how to drive...

I was once at an "open track day", and this group of kids brought a Nissan GTR and a Skyline. They couldn't drive these cars, there was a Miata out there that they couldn't keep up with. I never actually saw them out on the track, so all I have is second hand reports via stories that were making the rounds of the pits, but I do know they didn't stay very long.
The early episodes focused on Bart and glorified his delinquency. That was the primary moral panic surrounding the show.
The riders in this trial aren't particularly fit - they're closer to non-athletes than elite athletes.

Gels and drinks are used in part because they rapidly deliver glucose, but also because they're highly digestible when you're a) working at the limit and b) consuming vast amounts of energy. A rider in the Tour de France will typically consume over 6,000 kilocalories per day and still lose a substantial amount of weight over the course of the race; to replace their calorie intake from energy gels and bars, they'd need to eat several kilos of potatoes.
When I was swimming competitively, we'd always eat enormous amounts of spaghetti the evening before and then eat virtually nothing except maybe a fruit or few pieces of candy the morning of the meet.

(As far as I know it's a total nonsense myth that eating food before swimming is dangerous. We frequently at large meals before practice and nobody ever cramped up and drowned. But from a performance standpoint in a race, having an empty stomach seemed beneficial.)

How often are you changing temperature? The whole point of smart thermostats is that the temp is maintained automatically. I haven't touched mine in a long time as the schedule is set, and walking a few feet for the occasional tweak isn't really a big deal.

I think most of these gadgets cause people to fiddle with them more than they need to be because you have the option to do so.

I completely agree with this. Also, I feel like scandals always come out where certain high schools were inflating grades to reach funding goals, etc. It might even come to the point where admissions office take into account the high school you attended to calculate an effective grade which given a lack of standardized tests might very well lead to an even larger admissions gap based on wealth

I already had this theory before reading 1491, but definitely after: any society that works with organic matter for tools will be underreported in the archaeological records. Civilizations in intensively organically active areas, same problem. And then we have ancient societies that have both problems.

We are never going to fully appreciate the extent of rainforest societies. We will get better at guessing, but we will always underestimate them unless we give them the benefit of the doubt.
Not sure about the video lectures, but I'm fairly certain the original course was taught to MIT undergrads as an intro to CS and EE. See https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~bh/sicp.html and https://mitpress.mit.edu/sites/default/files/sicp/course.htm....

I don't totally disagree with you btw. Pretty sure in that interview with Hal Abelson someone mentioned above, he admitted the book leaned a little heavily on calculus because all MIT freshmen had to take that course, so it seemed a natural source for examples. Perhaps not as natural to someone who hasn't taken a calculus course in a decade (me). I still got a lot out of the book though.
Just in time for re:Invent! Thanks. :-)

> The point isn't that (x + y) wouldn't be a statement in other languages, rather than point is that in languages the reader of the article is most likely to be familiar with, you would use a for loop to solve the problem, and obviously a for loop is a statement, not an expression.

No, in other languages you would write one function that specifies how to perform an operation per type, then reuse that, and most linear algebra/numerical libraries come with these defined for you. In languages without polymorphism, such as C, you might have special names for these functions instead, such as vector_add. The actual use of these would look like '(x + y)' in Haskell, Rust, C++, etc. and 'vector_add(x, y)' in C, and would (or at least could) be expressions.

> . Which, by the way, includes idiomatic C++, Haskell, and Rust, in all of which overloading (+) to do something so specific would at best be seen in a purpose-specific library (like numpy) only, but isn't automatically present in the language.

Linear Algebra types/functions aren't automatically present in most languages. A library can be implemented to use this syntax to add vectors/matrices/whatever very easily, and many are [1][2]. Even if the library doesn't use '+' as the operator for eg. vector addition, it could, and it chooses to not use '+', but that is not very important.

> In most languages that most programmers use, for loops are common, and if all of those are replaced by expressions, you get a more expressive language (for dealing with arrays).

I'm not sure what you mean by 'more expressive'? Maybe you prefer a more declarative/functional programming style but for loops have their place in imperative languages. J doesn't actually force you to write all of you code in that style - the language has constructs that can be used to construct loops that look like imperative C [3].

> That's the point that the article is making, and you haven't addressed it at all.

The features described in this article are equivalent to a library implemented on top of Haskell, Rust, C++. The usage of such a library would even look almost exactly the same.

You can implement sane exception handling in C by the means of few simple preprocessor macros. In fact, this is how exception handling is implemented in ObjectiveC and how it is done in Windows (and this hack is also the reason why Windows have three different ABIs wrt. exception handling)

And in fact, implementing Common Lisp style condition system that can be used from C code in reasonably straightforward way involves only 1kLoC of cpp magic, been there, done that ;)

I eat a good steak. I'm not kidding or trivializing. But if I get busy and I'm always stressed out maybe trying to cut calories, after I while my mood gets dark. Sometimes, I have found its not just stress. I just need a good steak or burger. My metabolism does NOT liking going more than a few weeks without a serious protein hit. And it needn't be an unhealthy frequency or amount.

So YMMV, but sometimes a big part of metal health can be adjusting what you eat and drink.
This is exactly the sort of content I browse HN for. Thank you for the link.
Just a suggestion, "A Liberating Dev Tool For All Your Projects" doesn't tell me what the tool actually does, you have to scroll down to "how does it work" (or perhaps the "what can it run" section) to see exactly what the problem it's attempting to fix is. It could say something like "A tool to simplify setting up your development environments" (and "liberating" feels like it would fit well in the bullshit.js script).

To reinforce the other repliers; people including doctors have deliberately infested themselves with hookworms to combat allergies.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helminthic_therapy

> Helminthic therapy, an experimental type of immunotherapy, is the treatment of autoimmune diseases and immune disorders by means of deliberate infestation with a helminth or with the eggs of a helminth. Helminths are parasitic worms such as hookworms, whipworms, and threadworms that have evolved to live within a host organism on which they rely for nutrients.

I thought this was a joke. Never did figure out what it actually does.
This is a great illustration of the limits of AI — the scope of available data is limited. The data available in medical records is both limited and often garbage.

Without the context of behavioral data and other factors, it’s dangerous to draw conclusions.

In other scenarios, like say predicting the likelihood that a mole is cancerous, AI will eventually be better and more consistent than a human.
This is not true. I've watched conversations on this over the years on HN, and inevitably you get a few people saying the math is nothing to worry about, and then a bunch of people saying they had to give up because they didn't have the math background (oftentimes these are professional programmers).

My recollection from the bit of time I spent with it was that most of the examples were drawn from mathematics, often times relying on implicit bits of knowledge that would lose a reader unless they'd had long interest/experience in math.

I think the issue in divided opinions here is a matter of lost perception of the range of math knowledge: I've noticed this same communication difficulty when playing new people at Go and they ask whether I'm good or not. I never really know how to reply because on an absolute scale I'm an abysmal player—but against anyone who's never really studied the game I'll appear incredibly skilled.

When people answer that SICP requires very little math background, I think that's an accurate phrasing relative to a more global scale of math knowledge. But in the realm of folks with no particular interest in math, it requires a relatively sophisticated knowledge of mathematics.

If a high-schooler is training for math olympiads or they're on track to study math/CS/etc. at a top-tier university, they'll probably be fine. All the others will likely be completely lost.

Here's another example from today's thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21301474
>It's conclusion is basically that there are two types of inflammation - one designed to attack parasites (worms, etc.) the other to attack bacteria and viruses.

No, the article doesn't say that. It says there are many types of inflamation, it mentions several types of inflammation including in response to injury,and also autoimmune diseases, and it ends with a discussion of the possibility one of the many reasons inflammation goes wrong today is an imbalance between two particular types.
Took me a while to understand what it actually does. Would recommend to put what it actually does near the top next time.

Also: I can't help but think of Johny Ive when you use "liberating" in that manner XD.
