I didn't think about proccesed carbs until now, but just coincidencially yesterday I had a hamburger combo for lunch and heavy processed bread at night, and I woke up feeling like sh1t today.

Now that I read these comments and looked up some info, I feel like I found a mistery and that things got clearer, just like sorting out the "secret" as you say.

Already got the benefits of excercising regularily and last week jumped into the IF wagon (still having mood issues, hope it subsides soon), will for sure try out reducing processed carbs and hope to get feeling even better everyday.

Thank you both!

Robert Caro masterfully paints the picture of what life was like in rural Texas for women making homes before their area was electrified. It wasn't just time saved. It was hard, physical labor that caused their bodies to break down that they were saved from.

Really quite hard to fathom for any of us accustomed to growing up without that burden.
In addition to my other reply, it serves well to finely granularize an external facing API so that consumers can mix and match to their requirement. This granularity is best accomplished by a REST Api.

I got a win-game blurb for "> RESPECT WOMEN" in a game that had become really NSFW, really quick, and offensively so, from completely innocuous commands.

Then another, not surprisingly, for "> WIN GAME".
It's hit or miss. You'll have better results being more specific in your commands because it gives the model more to work off of and let's you crystalize elements of the scene through reaffirmation.

"Fire an arrow at the deer" or "Check the pockets of the corpse".

I'm often surprised at how well the game can understand me and that it has anything to say in reply at all.

A lot of the protocols for asynchronous communication allowed for operating in offline mode. So if you didn't have an internet connection, you could still compose and send emails, but the client would only actually connect to the network when were actually connected and send the emails all at once (as well as downloading emails from the POP or IMAP server).

git actually has commands that leverage email for sending an receiving patches, so that code review and development can take place without requiring a connection at all other than to send and receive when needed.

Exactly. Don't follow a diet, but structurally change your eating pattern. Long ago, after a year of eating mostly pizza, I switched to eating mostly stir-fry vegetables. My food still wasn't very varied, but that meant it required little effort and willpower. And it was still a lot healthier than pizza. Lost 5 kg in 5 weeks.

Then I met my wife and she didn't want to eat just stir-fry vegetables, so now I'm heavier than ever.
Interesting. Such a big dinner ruins my sleep, but a massive breakfast and a light lunch does it for me.
What's the most powerful political position in a US state, comparable to the prime minister in European countries? Speaker of the House of Representatives? At least Michigan has a 31 yrs. old Speaker of the House currently. Or is it more like state governor is like both the European prime minister and president combined?
Variable odds don't solve the core problem which is that "half the investment income" is a high enough fee that you need a very large edge before you do better than just putting the money in a donor-advised fund.

You can count the number of type systems that are "logically OK" (the formal terms are sound (doesn't admit wrong programs, unlike e.g. Java), complete (can admit all correct programs (for some definition of "correct"), unlike e.g. Scala), decidable (always finishes)) on one hand. The rest amount to various amounts of hacks - common ones include specifying function parameter types to allow type inference to function, various escape hatches (like Object in Java and interface {} in Go), generics incorrect or limited to various degrees. Subtyping is tremendously hard. The specific hacks implemented in different programming languages are often implementation-specific (and arbitrary), and often result in weird interactions between different language features.

Basically, type systems == science (figuring out new things), programming languages = engineering (making new findings useful).
According to this[0], there are 23 states with a population of 5 million or more. So, roughly half of US states have a population as large as the country of Finland. Also, according to this[1], there are 9 metro areas in the US with a population of 5 million or more.

Okteto – Kubernetes for Developers
1. When the powers out, gas pumps are out too unless there are generators. Even in Florida where this is expected after storms, we still have 95%+ of stations offline during power outages.

2. Typical fast charging times are < 20 minutes and you don't typically aim for full. The first half of the battery charges in less than 15 minutes, nearly matching a typical gas station stop on a road trip. You can get 75 miles of charge in just 5 minutes at peak with a Tesla.

3. Most users charge at home or work keeping them topped up ready for up to 180 miles typical miles of driving that day as long as they return to base and don't want to extend into the lower or higher reservations in the battery for long term health.

I think one of the key benefits of autoscaling isn't the ability to scale out when necessary, but to scale in.

Say you have an idea for a web app that needs a server-side component, but you only ever expect to have a few users. A VPS will cost you at least $5 a month. If you can make your backend serverless, you'll probably only pay a tiny sliver of that, if you even end up exceeding your provider's free tier.
There's a 40 mile (64 km) model in rural Maine (Route 1 in Aroostook County). The webpage claims it is the largest in the world (obviously not true, at least not as of today). The webpage is also delightfully early-90s-esque. http://pages.umpi.edu/nmms/solar/

How does one play this without a Google account?
From the same author:

"Every day, Americans tell Google they’re going to shoot up their school or workplace. I know this because I serve ads on Google to prospective mass shooters."

I'd be more interested in seeing just the past few years to see how the trends are shifting.
This article rises a lot of unanswered questions about how does Google exactly reveal user data to the advertiser. Are they referring to the filters the advertiser used to target the ad and the search keyword, or something more?

> By syncing Google Ads with Callrail, your name and address is tied to your click (and all your other data) when you conduct a certain action on a website that an ad directs to. (Clicking a phone number on the website, for example).

How does Callrail have people's name and address? None of the data relinking the article describes should be made possible by Google and Callrail. If true, this is obviously illegal.
I think these are noble but naive approaches - we have been developing software for a few decades now and sometimes the software is not compatible without the developer knowing it. You should be able to use whichever version of the software you need.
Easier said than done though. Such biases are typically not conscious, so everyone already think they are being unbiased in promotions.

I think it is usually considered a right of passage of a new programming language to prove that it is mature enough to self-host.

Personally, I value that aspect highly because it means if I choose to work with a language that I can understand, read, and possibly contribute to the compiler if needed.
Where is this stated?

XueDianNow (学电脑) is a remote tech support for Chinese Parents. For whatever reason, we noticed immigrant parents tend to be have far more trouble with technology than people born in the USA or a western country.

Some combination of a new language they are not used to along with technology they are not used to makes for a really hard time. Many of the children of these immigrants also told us they don't speak their parents mother tongue very well so it gets very frustrating for them to try and help.

We are basically a ragtag team of recent graduates and friends around the globe who hop on a call when needed as a side gig.
You'd save on transferring the bytes around, but now you would have to self-host jupyter and the GPUs it uses. That is going to be even more expensive than IP transit because now you have to have 60,000 12GB GPUs in your datacenter.

Like I said before, this is one of those things that wouldn't exist without the Cloud. If you run things on your user's computers, you have to send them a lot of bits. If you run things on your own computers, you're spared that bandwidth, but now have to have enough "computers" to satisfy your users. It's simply something that's not super cheap to run these days.

I will admit that it is surprising that Google <-> Google traffic is billed at the normal egress rates, but the reasoning does make sense -- a 30Gbps flow is nothing to sneeze at. That is using some tangible resources.

I go back and forth on this, I can't make up my own mind let alone change anyone else's!

In any case, I used to do what you do – for pretty much the same reasons – but then I've gone back to starting lines with dot (and ?, ||, &&, and other usual suspects) because I parse code left-to-right, so the presence of such a character tells me that I need to look at the preceding line(s) to get the full picture, and it doesn't so much matter if it makes things paste-friendlier. Without the dot, I've found myself move things around that shouldn't be moved around for example:

check().
// Insert stuff here and things break, the lack of dot on the following line had me fooled
then()

I have no good answers for this, and like I said I go back and forth on this – sometimes in the same file even! I think generally I don't particularly like splitting a statement over multiple line's, but at the same time I like too keep a hard limit of the number of characters I can put on each line. First world programming problem for sure.

4 Major Risks You Might Run into When Going Serverless
> Oh, check out Nix

Nix is a non-sequitur. Nix requires specific packages and package versions to be specified, and Nix requires the build process to be "free from side effects". That fails to address both problems stated by the OP, and actually try to reimplement what Debian's package building process already does. Other than trying to publicize Nix, your comment adds nothing to the discussion.

Why install a urinal when there is a perfectly good sink just sitting there?
IT and Programming have a booming job market and salaries are, on the high end, virtually unrivaled by other industries, save for things like Doctors or high-end Lawyers. And unlike Lw and Medicine, a B.S. from a decent school (plus some hustle) is enough to get in to a FAANG.

Eventually the industry is going to cool, but for now Tech really is the closest thing to that Steinbeck quote about temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
I like how google did employee travel. They calculated a cap = 2/3 * historical employee data + 1/3 * current cost of business flight.

Obviously for common routes such as Sf to la, nyc to sf...etc they hard coded values.

for every $1 under the cap you received 50cent to use on a future travel plan over the calculated cap.

You could fly economy on an international flight saving money, then bank 50% of savings to buy a first class ticket some other time.

This created a negative feedback loop keeping travel costs in check.
> Making information about medicines, diseases, conditions and symptoms freely available from a trusted source is a GOOD thing for society.

And this changes how? (You just sent me a link to the real trusted source.)

Making more people happy to go through WebMD like commercial portals that can learn more about the user and sell the data is bad. Adding legitimacy to these is bad.
> It seems to me like you would expect hunger to increase over time after eating.

This actually isn't the case at all. Thirst works this way: the longer you don't drink, the thirstier you get. But hunger tends to subside after a while if you don't eat, and comes back at the next normal meal time.

I doubt such laws have EVER seen their day in court vs an individual collecting a few gallons of water for personal use. That would seem to clearly violate constitutional rights to life and liberty.

The only case where they might have any weight would be widespread collection of water to the extent that it had a measurable impact on the community, but this would involve large quantities of water and would almost certainly involve business interests rather than personal ones.
I realize this doesn't add to the conversation, but I love the fact that you can mention someone on HN and they might show up for the discussion.
Sorry, I worded my comment imprecisely. I meant the CRL and language feature developments can and should be looked at separately from the platform/ecosystem stuff.

I'm aware that Core is different, and that MS only ported a subset of their APIs, and thus many libs need to be completely rewitten, especially those that were already just wrappers/helpers for more Win32-specific things.

And this wrapping platform specific lower lever libs happens on other ecosystems too. Python users run into this quite a lot, Rust devs too, etc. And many early Java programs were basically platform specific, even if the JRE itself was not.
>Efficiency is the only mediator of resource accumulation in an economy...

Which databases can this be used for? Based on the usage of phpmyadmin and WordPress in the examples, I take it only works for MySQL?
Keep in mind they're measuring "growth", which is probably why NYC is notably absent as it has long had a large tech sector for a long time (if you count tech in financial services as "tech jobs"). From what I gleaned this is not a measure of the absolute size of the job market.

Additionally, I'm guessing they probably don't even count traditional tech jobs (i.e., those at big companies doing boring things).

how in the hell does CallRail work? It seems that they can map my browser fingerprint to my phone number. Is it just a gigantic amount of cross referencing and a large db? Are they doing it just based on timing. Seems crazy to me. I know it is technologically possible, but they have to buying the browser fingerprint info from some other vendor, yes?

ninja edit: I get using a forwarding number so you can track how long the calls take, etc. But it seems like they can map the call to the forwarding number to the session on the website.

Cost is a very important factor... But you focused on the high cost end..

The cost of running a production server is something small startup businesses need to budget for... And you don't want to run your production website on a 5-10/month shared server. If you design for the cloud/serverless, you can get your costs down to near-$0 for light usage... But yes, using things like lambda mean a possible bill shock if your traffic grows faster than your income can recover it.. but if you have an advertisement on the page, it probably will cover the execution cost if it's lean enough.

In another example, I inherited a CICD pipeline that cost $300/month and could run 2 of our larger test suites simultaneously.

I converted this to AWS Spot instances and now support thousands in parallel and I pay under $170/month ( https://ldoughty.com/2018/01/gitlab-multi-runner-w/docker-ma... )... But to your point about "what if" costs of this, yes, there's a limit on place for this setup so it can't go over 20 or so... And it is important to consider the impact of auto scaling with regards to the bill... For a small business, AWS effectively doesn't have a way for you to really stop "Bill attacks" or legitimate high traffic on API Gateway/Lambda short of you taking down your site.

My recommendation is: ideally, don't expose something that costs you much too run unless you can recoup the cost from that action (paying customer, advertising).. your homepage should be static or cached in a CDN until you're ready for that large bill.
Also fewer problems. Reused floppies had more “I/O Error” and dirt transfer into drives.
The built-in "on-demand activation" is quite good. Can set it to specific SSIDs (white or blacklist) or cellular. I've it on for everything except my home SSID.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. My understanding about the effects of caffeine is not based on anything other than hear-say from people who seemed to have done their research better than I have, but from what I did hear, caffeine on an empty stomach may have opposite the intended effects, making you actually more confused instead of boosting focus.

Anecdotally after hearing this myself, I have tried to make it a point to take coffee less often when on an empty stomach, and it does seem to help with focus-depletion.
