> it doesn’t matter how little they eat they gain weight

A few thoughts in no particular order:

* Weight gain (of the adipose sort) is quite literally your body storing energy.

* Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. [citation needed]

* Unless your gut is performing nuclear physics, your energy intake is directly equivalent to the food you consume.

* Obesity is primarily a hunger problem - you're feeling hungry when you don't require additional calories.

* Some foods (ex broccoli, leafy greens) are nearly physically impossible to consume too many calories from.

* Some foods (ex macadamia nuts) are _incredibly easy_ to consume too many calories from.
It’s possible you might not enjoy working in a FAANG corporate environment.

Facebook and Google both receive a lot of negative press about moral issues. If you’ve been driven to action in the name of animal rights, in the past, you might find it hard to stomach your employer being subjected to an endless barrage of accusations such as: tax dodging, contract employee segregation, psychological manipulation, algorithmic gender and racial bias, etc.

Amazon is in the news right now just as much for internal protests about employee rights as those rights themselves.

You might think that becoming a moral insider at one of these companies will help make a difference. That’s true in a passive sense — the more sensible morally grounded people there are, the better the background atmosphere at the org will be.

But unless you are hired into the “make things better” department, your full time contract to automate the iOS right-to-left ad translation team’s bug reporting workflow isn’t going to last long if you repeatedly stir up centathreads on social justice issues.

Its going to be very hard to resist doing any stirring!

Peter Norvig explained why he came to Python from Lisp in an HN posting a decade ago:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1803815

>norvig on Oct 18, 2010 | parent | favorite | on: Ask PG: Lisp vs Python (2010)

>Peter Norvig here. I came to Python not because I thought it was a better/acceptable/pragmatic Lisp, but because it was better pseudocode. Several students claimed that they had a hard time mapping from the pseudocode in my AI textbook to the Lisp code that Russell and I had online. So I looked for the language that was most like our pseudocode, and found that Python was the best match. Then I had to teach myself enough Python to implement the examples from the textbook. I found that Python was very nice for certain types of small problems, and had the libraries I needed to integrate with lots of other stuff, at Google and elsewhere on the net.

>I think Lisp still has an edge for larger projects and for applications where the speed of the compiled code is important. But Python has the edge (with a large number of students) when the main goal is communication, not programming per se.

>In terms of programming-in-the-large, at Google and elsewhere, I think that language choice is not as important as all the other choices: if you have the right overall architecture, the right team of programmers, the right development process that allows for rapid development with continuous improvement, then many languages will work for you; if you don't have those things you're in trouble regardless of your language choice.

My impression was that you were talking about API changes that actually require the developer to use them, e.g. because the old thing doesn't work with the new system anymore. Then you give them some notice and they're ready with the new thing because they want their app to keep working.

The things you're listing are optional features. That doesn't require some kind of coordinated effort. If one distributor requires support for Dark Mode on day one and another gives developers a year and another never requires it at all, so what? If you really love Dark Mode you can decline to install apps from distributors who don't require it. Or just decline to install apps that don't have it, which you could do regardless of what any distributors allow.
That is your interpretation but not my meaning.
Or the Gurdjieff movement, which (also like Urbit) is full of completely made up terms and concepts like "organ kundabuffer", "being-partkdolg-duty" and "the sacred Rascooarno", which the faithful just sort of accept and don't really explain except in their own terms, or with reference to other bits of Gurdjieff's impenetrable prose. When confronted, Gurdjieffites usually resort to the sort of tactics displayed upthread, if they're feeling charitable: "Have you considered that you are simply, in your somnambulent ignorance, criticizing that which you do not understand because your sleep prevents you from understanding? Come talk to me after you've spent 20 or 30 years in the Work and have something to criticize." In short, to criticize the system you must first embrace the system in its totality, only then will you understand it well enough to level legitimate criticism.

If they're not feeling charitable, they might declare you an Eternal-Hasnamuss-Individual and tell you your destiny is to become food for the moon. But at least they won't sue you or send private investigators after you (I think), so that's nice.

That's less than perfect there... I bought an RX 5700 XT in October when I built my desktop. I had lots of issues over the months until around February where it finally seemed stable (on updated Kernel releases, and having to sometimes download the binary driver modules).

Even then, I had trouble with even trying VMs as nothing supported the ahead of mainline kernel I needed for my video card. Now, 20.04 may be miles better and much more stable overall, still well behind the kernel I'd been running. Just saying it isn't a panacea at all.

I’d say don’t over think it and don’t quit your day job. But I also assume you’re not pouring money into this. Stay free as long as you can, it gives you data so build out some usage stats, talk to the highest volume users. Figure out what threshold they become willing to pay and how much. Then, ask them to pay because they might have just lied to you.
Dried herbs/spices can be thought of and treated much like coffee beans.

Keep them in cool airtight containers in the dark. Only buy enough for a few months, many lose their potency by about 12 months or so. (It varies)

Avoid buying them from supermarkets and other big-box type stores. If you have a local asian supermarket, they probably sell a lot fresher and better quality stuff. If you don't have one, you might be able to order them online instead.

Grinding/roasting your own is better, but if that's too difficult a good asian supermarket will have pre-ground stuff that's also pretty good.

Like coffee beans, they lose their potency faster once ground.
PopOS supports nvidia, intel and amd graphics pretty well out of the box (nvidia was a separate download, unsure if it still is).

I had trouble with the 5700 XT for the first few months though... Other than running out and buying a new graphics card series when it comes out, most people should be fine.
I make it once every week or two, so they don’t have much time to go stale. The stuff on the shelf at the supermarket seems to have a much longer time in between being roasted and ground, and eventually finding its way into a shopping trolly. The bigger problem with ground spice mixtures though, is that they go stale at different rates. If the ground cumin seeds you have lose a little of their punch, it’s fine because you can just put more in. With spice mixtures, you can start out with something that’s well balanced, but the lighter flavors will start to fade, leaving behind the more potent ones (like clove or cardamom, in the case of garam masala). So when you go to use it, you taste the curry and it doesn’t have enough spice in it, so you add a little more and all of a sudden it has the over-powering biter after taste of too much cardamom, without much else.

The other benefit is that it’s obviously just going to taste better, or at least more the way you prefer it, if you make it yourself. Maybe I’m a weirdo though, because I don’t buy any pre-ground spices aside from chili (which keeps really well), and turmeric (which - in powder form - is used more for color than flavor).
>"It was kind of interesting exploring the OTP internals, especially some of the parts that haven't changed in a long time."

I have heard similar before at an Erlang meetup. Are there elements of the VM you encountered that were also static and lacking sufficient documentation? I'm guessing much of this is just tribal knowledge deep inside Ericsson then? It would be great if there were a public repository for these things.
Sometimes those apps are actual features, I believe some phones that advertise special cameras or audio quality need them. Most of the time it's a beneficial loss though.
So you're saying DNS registration should work more like how living in a physical place works? Well, where I live,

- My landlord and my city are both subject to laws from a national government, and if they're egregiously misbehaving, the national government can step in, but they usually don't.

- If I switch landlords, let alone cities, my address changes.

- I can choose a landlord and to a lesser extent a city by reputation, but I might end up choosing a city because it's where I want to be for business etc. reasons, even if I disagree with its leadership choices

- I have limited ability to influence my city's decision-making and essentially no ability to influence my nation's decision-making, but it's not unheard of.

Which all seems very similar to having a choice of registrar, limited choice of TLD/registry, no choice in ICANN, the theoretical (and occasionally practical, as in this case) ability to influence ICANN, and the ability to change registrars and TLDs if I like - as long as I'm okay changing addresses.

Consider the alternative -- corruption at ICANN where they sell the root to a private company. Then what are you going to do, move from DNS whatsoever?

It's only "global" in the sense that its jurisdictional boundaries are administrative rather than regional. The .org gTLD is operated by different people than the .com gTLD.

I almost entirely agree, and I think the word "favor" wasn't the best choice. My opinion is that many developers will often consult Google or Stack Overflow before consulting a manpage or documentation or will only briefly consult documentation before a Google search. I'm definitely guilty of this, especially when I'm under a tight deadline, but I think it's a behavior that should be avoided when possible. Navigating documentation and/or manpages forces you to engage with the structure of the tool you're using, Google and Stack Overflow do not.

See, Truth Be Told, and Amazing Stories seem to be widely panned, and I haven't liked them either though I have yet to finish them. For All Mankind would probably resonate most with the HN community. I liked The Morning Show much more than I expected to, and it was a nuanced depiction of workplace power dynamics along with the behind the scenes of those types of shows. Little America is outstanding, the immigrant stories are authentic and multi-layered without being political. Servant is quite good, it's unsettling throughout and you have to pay close attention. Mythic Quest I found to be funny and entertaining, and people who work in game development say it points to underlying truths. People who I know personally are split on it, maybe if you like the Always Sunny in Philadelphia style then you'll like it more.

What I found confusing is that after finding the source code page for a project, I couldn't figure out where to go navigate to the related bug tracker, mailing list, wiki, etc. It looks like the project hub now has project pages that help with that, but the individual pages don't seem to have backlinks to the project that contains them (or at least if they do, I can't find them). But it's still a work in progress, so hopefully that will come in due time.

Correct, the entire market for such loans would pretty much collapse - current yields are comparable to those of commercial real estate or high-yield corporate bonds, with none of the downside protections.

Unsecured personal loans (that are subject to bankruptcy) are a valid asset class, coveted by LendingClub and some banks, but they require solid credit history and carry a higher interest rate, more aggressive repayment schedule, or both.
Product managers are seeing "longer time on site" in their analytics reports and keep adding more things thinking it is meeting the company's quarterly OKR

they don't know the "higher engagement" is because the mobile user's browsers are literally frozen

and the A/B test says "keep going with the B test!" "do it again!" in a tree that keeps evolving down one side of the graph towards more and more obnoxious experiences that the company doesn't even know is obnoxious

given the misaligned incentives I think this is also an area California can regulate or threaten to regulate, I don't like "tech regulation" but I can't think of any other party to curb the behavior. If you like "private sector solutions" more than "government solutions" then Apple and Google can pull the rug under all the other company's feet by crashing sites on the user's phone using other user's crowd sourced data, or making certain analytics packages not run, etc.

This comment is being taken way too seriously.
HN still uses it extensively for its more obscure operations—the ones that don't need to scale. We switched all the most common handlers to regular links years ago. It's hard to remember now that the most common complaint here (by far) used to be about those "Unknown or expired link" messages. In fact, you can tell from the histogram of https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... when it was that we fixed this—six years ago—because that's when the complaints slow down to a trickle.

As long as you don't use it for things that you need a lot of, it's a great approach that holds up well. The primary downside is that they all get discarded when we restart the server process. Another downside is that they don't work well with the back button.

Edit: I just remembered another issue with them. Sometimes browsers pre-visit these links, which 'uses' them so that by the time the user goes to click on it, it has already expired. (Yes, this is an issue with using GET for these.)
