Spartan Keto
The Spartan Keto has crashed the mainstream media and social media scene and is getting rave reviews – but that’s nothing new to us. The ketogenic diet (“keto” for short), has been around for over a decade. It’s only recently though, that it has taken a front seat in the media’s eye. Why is that, you ask? The Spartan Keto is known for its ability to melt body fat and maintain muscle mass. In other words, its literally the fastest way to get shredded – no BS, and here’s why.
While other diets and nutrition plans exist, the Spartan Keto will ensure you experience rapid fat loss. In fact, most people that follow our ketogenic diet lose up to 10lbs in the first week. While some of that is water weight, a good portion of it is also body fat. How does this work so fast? To answer that we need to look at the diet that most Americans follow daily.The standard American diet includes carbohydrates as the largest portion of food with each meal. At least, that’s what the FDA recommends and what most of us were taught as children. We believe that carbs are our energy source and are necessary to experience that “full feeling.” The truth is, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Can live up to 50 years. OK. What happens when they do not? Does the body not regenerate them? Various kinds of stress can cause them to not live that long. It is not as black and white.
A Handy Resource for Designers
I've used sites like Undraw and Drawkit, and they're pretty awesome. Would like to recommend another resource for you guys to check out - they have 1000s of free .svgs and you can change colors in batches or individually. Best part is that this site can be used for commercial and personal as well.

It is interesting but the proposal is entirely in line with that case as I recall. This issue was LinkedIn was complaining about scrapping of publicly reachable sites. And this new proposal is to keep the contents of discussions unarchived behind a login.
> I cannot, for example, walk nude in any public place

To use your example: do you think this is reasonable or just? Do you think it’s a sane thing to use force to enforce such a thing?

> Also, it seems weird to see an attempt at a full-throated defense of maximalist freedom of speech from someone who claims to require an NDA with a non disparagement clause for basic social interaction

If that’s what you read from that post or that comment, I have done a terrible job of communicating. You seem to have misread a discussion of social media’s corporate censorship into “full-throated defense of maximalist freedom of speech”, which it is absolutely not. If you re-read it carefully you will not find that conclusion supporter anywhere in the text—I specifically avoided it because I do not hold those views.

Then, again, when you parsed the circumstances under which I formally ask people to keep my private information private: it is drastically far removed from “basic social interaction”.

You seem pretty bent on fiercely mischaracterizing the things I have said or do.

If you’re not actively trolling and really have sincerely read these beliefs into the words that I wrote, perhaps a third bit of my recent writing may be relevant to you: https://sneak.berlin/20191201/american-communication/

I can only tell you that your beliefs of my views, articles, and life are inaccurate and not supported by the data available.

In the event you are actively trolling, well done. I slept on your comment before replying, because few things in the world make me type more fiercely than people making demonstrably false statements of fact about things I do or believe.
It can't be worth any microscopic performance benefit to not just be safe/precise and substitute a decimal datatype in 99% of cases. Something crazy like HFT might be an exception, or if it's just a quick excel sheet. Otherwise it's still a perfectly good rule of thumb to keep money in decimal types if you're writing code.

For this same reason, I’m disappointed that mobile browsers such as iOS Safari have yet to enable DevTools, e.g. a page inspector, network inspector, and JavaScript console. Especially for younger generations, there are many whose first computer will be a mobile device.

> Something that the rise of ubiquitous tech should have solved.

Why do you think it should have happened already? We’ve only had good lithium ion batteries for a decade or two. Same for the internet, maybe 20 years of widespread use. Solar cells are only just starting to compete with coal. There is much work to do, and we’re doing it but it takes time.

Information can travel instantly, that’s an important change, but the process of actually building the semantic router is not trivial. And the tech for affordable off-grid civilization is really juuust maturing right now.

Wow, seriously, that's the way we ought to treat people who "demolish" our ideas :-)

Edit: I should probably say that I have been trying to behave like this for a few years already at my scale, my point is that this is inspiring.

Oh, and there exist people who are so toxic on top of being blunt that I probably wouldn't work with them even if it gave me a 5% chance to make the worlds first commercial viable fusion reactor.
From Ars Technica: Winamp’s woes: How the greatest MP3 player undid itself - https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/07/winam...

Winamp 2 & 3 were my sweet spot. I want to say versions 2.53 through 2.56(?) are the versions indelibly burned in my memory. Such a breath of fresh air from the Real garbage of the day. Hope Frankel and Lord are well.
Hah. About half the Signature Required deliveries I've received from Apple (and Dell, to be fair) at my home... haven't.

I would suspect the claim is using a specific understanding of "break". Obviously you can break a human mind with a bullet or a chisel through the eye socket, but there are certain types of breakage that are not possible without much more nuanced understanding of how the mind functions.

In general, I think the idea is that when we learn to create a type of thing, we also learn a great deal about new ways to destroy it.

"doesn't affect me at all. "

If you consciously tune it out, how do you know it doesn't affect you?

Answer: you can't know. But it does.
If you have to keep taking something, the treatment is palliative and not curative.

If treatments are applied based on symptoms rather than an understanding of the cause, they also tend to be palliative.

> My friends and I have countdowns on our phones ticking down the days to eagerly-awaited releases, we make plans to listen to it together at a 'premiere' hosted by whoever has the best speakers. If they live up to the excitement they get replayed to death, memorized backwards and forwards, and discussed endlessly.

Wait, does that still happen or did you just describe what you used to do in the past?

As a music lover and collector on fridays my todo list is filled with numerous entries of new release I scheduled months and weeks in advance. And yet this kind of musical anticipation, exploration and discovery seems to be a rather solitary passion. For most people music has been relegated to background noise it seems. If you and your friends still enjoy and explore music the way you described, that's exceptionally wonderful.

My brother worked at a Cadbury chocolate factory for a while. They had a "take as much as you want, whenever you want, for personal/immediate family" policy.

That was because they discovered that most people, after a week or two of free-for-all binging never wanted to eat another bar of chocolate in their life, and so the company's costs were near zero.
"is just an empty slogan weaponizing empathy to guilt whoever it's directed at towards supporting your political leaning."

What a wildly defensive response to something that wasn't even directed at you. Or maybe YOU think it was and believe it, which is why you got defensive.

See, If you are rich you don't need to worry about issues that impact the poor. If you are white you don't need to worry about issues that impact blacks. If you are a man you don't need to worry about issues that impact women. If you are straight, you don't need to worry about issues that affect gays.

Thank you for the book recommendation. Your description stands out to me because it feels like that’s the way “Russian” (as often claimed; sorry for a political example) influence on American and other societies via Internet manifests.

For the past few years specifically it feels like a story gets a suspicious amount of immediate and very widespread reach when they’re on the topic of an outrageous member of some certain political or other identity group. Any group, as in this is occurring in all directions simultaneously. I felt this way just yesterday when I saw a Reddit thread about some transgender sports participation drama and the “Other Discussions” tab had fifty other identical threads making sure the “link breakage” you describe is broadcast as widely as possible. Jessica Yaniv is another recent example. I don’t doubt that those divisive people themselves are genuine, but the absolute fervor around these topics just feels so fake. I could see the argument that it’s a natural feedback loop of people becoming more aware of and attuned to certain topics, but the truly scary thing is there’s no way to know.
Looking at these numbers it clearly doesn't exist for a substantial part of the population. Where it does I'd argue it's mostly just habit.
Traditional Japanese companies (I worked for one for a quarter century) tend to be quite risk-averse.

This does mean that they may not have massive spurts of growth, like Apple or Microsoft, but it also means they can weather storms fairly well.

Remember that many Japanese companies had their assets turned to kindling in WWII, and survived.
I am not a biologist. One way or the other the body is in a constant state of flux. Even if 90% of body is regenerated over a period of time, it is still a great wonder.
I work in medical devices and out-of-the-box rust would be a much better option than the C++ systems we build!

There is competition in this space from qnx as well.

Take a look at the medical device alarms standard IEC 60601-1-8. It's possible to provide a very generic implementation of the standard for high, low and medium priority alarms. Could act as a trojan horse to introduce your back end messaging, logging, shared memory infrastructure - all developed according to ISO 62304 (of course)!
And we’ve lost ourselves as a result.
You are conflating RSA (the algorithm) with "ssh-rsa" (the option of the SSH suite indicating authentication with RSA in combination with SHA-1). They deprecate the latter.

Other options also based on RSA such as "rsa-sha2-256/512" are fine and will remain supported. In other words, the security problem is not with RSA per se.

Having said that, I have not checked whether the people you list have RSA keys bound to SHA-1...
> Hence why paranoia about sabotage is such a persistent feature of dictatorial regimes

Not only that: if simple sabotage increases paranoia, then that paranoia can harm the enemy's war effort more than the sabotage.
> He had a profound influence on Ludwig Wittgenstein, persuading him to drop the quest for certainty, purity, and sparse metaphysical landscapes in the Tractatus and turn to ordinary language and human practices.

Interesting. In the preface to the Philosophical Investigations, Wittgenstein credits the Neo-Ricardian economist Pierro Sraffa with something like the same influence. I'd be curious to know what led Misak to this conclusion.
Thank you for this. Occasionally you find gems like this on YouTube. One of my favourite channels is Nik Rijavec's, who is building a house from scratch (so not a rebuild).

Evaporative Cooling of Group Beliefs
I remember there being a website (forgot the name/URL) where people could share their visualizations for Winamp. I downloaded so many presets from there and even recorded some to VHS because I thought they were so cool.

I made my own, too, mostly by taking something made by someone else and changing the code/numbers to see how it would react. I wish I could find those files again somewhere and just spend a moment immersing myself into that universe.
The biggest issue I have with Mac upgrades is that for me, it doesn't cache the upgrade.

My internet is weak, not as great in speed and bandwidth as US so it downloads 4gb and then fails. Then it starts from 0 sgain.

I expected Apple of all companies to cache downloads.

Frankly, it caches only the first 500MB. I do not know why.

Any workarounds?
Yeah, and our modern day pervasive surveillance would quickly reveal who is buying moths like crazy.
Not to diminish your experience, but I would infinitely have preferred moving abroad vs. bouncing around domestically. Doing so gives you a free pass in some ways, since it’s expected that there’ll be some element of friction for you as you adjust to the culture shift.

If you have friends who immigrated at a young age, I highly recommend talking to them about the experience of returning back to their birth countries (if they’ve done so). Especially for those who no longer speak the language, it’s often a reverse culture shock.
> Japan's oldest temple, burned to the ground and rebuilt every 20 years

I suspect that there is a degree of translation loss in those quotes.

In general if you ask someone about this they'll indeed reply that their temple is 1,000 years old (example). Then if you ask whether this means that this building right here is 1,000 years old they'll may very naturally reply that no, they rebuild it every so often.

I'm thinking that the concept of e.g. 'temple' might be different than the actual buildings the temple is made of.

Now, sometimes the buildings really are hundreds of years old.
You can see the Disqus comments, but if you post a comment, then, that won't work?

If you have time, maybe you'd like to go here: https://www.kajmagnus.blog/new-embedded-comments and scroll down and try posting a comment, and tell me if you run into problems? (That's a different commenting system; I'm developing it. And it'd be nice to find out if there are unknown problems preventing people like you from posting comments ... Maybe the same thing as with Disqus, and I could fix the problem in my case?)
You're talking about psychological manipulation, behaviorism, conditioning, NLP... that sort of thing? It's not like any of it's secret; it's just fragmented, buried and dismissed by mainstream culture because most people do not want to believe in a lack of independent human will or the idea that core behavior or beliefs can be intentionally manipulated. The idea makes most people so uncomfortable they won't even seriously consider the possibility. However, it seems that good political operatives and marketing people have a pretty good understanding of some parts of it. So do some police and military personnel, especially in other countries (like China) with less interest in ethics or human rights. So do people obsessed with animal training (although that can't use the language part of the equation). So do psychologists, in theory (they should, being psychologists), although most psychologists resort to higher-level therapeutic strategies that are really some suboptimal combination of low level behavior/conditioning/NLP strategies which are primarily what works.

Look, I understand that in a perfect world, all contracts would be neutral and fair. But we live in a decidedly imperfect world, full of bribes, vendettas, and good ole boy clubs.

We live in an age where you can be fired for expressing an opinion or character that doesn't align with your employer on social media.

Imagine making a new twitter account in your own name, and doing nothing but insulting your company. What do you expect to happen? That's not far from the case here. Are we more sympathetic because the players are rich?

Bezos bought a company that, for better or worse, constantly antagonizes the current government administration. Why is he shocked that his alt account didn't get a contract from them?
I think the issue has been the slowly rising ideology that individuals know better individually than collectively what they want to achieve. Collectively we decided to go to the moon and the smartest people were given the recources to achieve that.

Individually we have ended up first incentivized smartest people to figure how to give mortgages to people who can't afford them and then how to get people clock more ads. Lo and behold, that's what we got ...

And no, I am not promoting full on communism. I am saying there is a goldilocks case here. There are things that are so important to research and develop that we need to collectively put resources more than free market allocates. There also are endeavours that are harmful and should be regulated. And there are things that should be left for free market.

"That true age of innovation – I’ll call it the Golden Quarter – ran from approximately 1945 to 1971. [...] Today, progress is defined almost entirely by consumer-driven, often banal improvements in information technology."

Except the web. And ecommerce. And video streaming. You might call the "banal" but they changed how people live more than then most other things before except electric power and cars.
Except that those things are declining, even in America, let alone in most of the rest of the world. Life expectancy is decreasing for many (except for the rich). Food quality has been declining for many decades. Preventable diseases are coming back. Deaths from war have been declining for now, so I'll give you that one. We are not quite at the levels we were at 100 years ago, but with just about everything declining, I wouldn't be surprised if we get there in a few decades given the damage we are doing to the environment. And that's before you even get to social and political issues which have never progressed, for which progress itself is meaningless and certainly immeasurable due to the inability to even define it.

> One strange phenomenon that comes up occasionally is that there are banned accounts that post good comments, but revert to posting bad comments that break the site guidelines as soon as we unban them. Then we ban them again and their comments get good again...go figure. Any large-enough population sample includes a long tail of behaviors.

It would be somewhat ironic, if re-enabling interaction with the community is what's driving them to back to bad behaviour. You know, HN as a bad influence.
