Yep, but even with green vegetables, you'll struggle to get anywhere near the daily recommendation, around 400mg per adult. And that might be significantly more if you are active in some sports for muscle recovery. Personally I can feel the difference given that I exercise daily and I do a 20000 step walks every morning. But yeah, I rely on supplements, which is kind of the easy way out. And even the very good ones are pretty cheap(mine set me back around 20 euros and go for 3 months).

These are also from recommended amounts which we have no idea what optimal is. Has there been studies to say what the blood levels of vitamin d etc. should actually be?

It is not a huge amount, and it is not happening in most cities.

Take a random example here in California, probably 50 people looted Best Buy this weekend? For a city of 70k? Vast minority.

In a country that has 20k cities. There is no way more than 10k cities are experiencing looting.

There is “more than I would actually like”, and there is actual huge/most. It simply isn’t as bad as you make out to be.

> Is Harnoncourt generally associated with fast tempos?

Historically informed performance feeds on research on the place, time, established practices, theoretical treatises, instrument construction limitations, interpretative styles, etc. where the music took place. The approach to interpretation is revised upon new discovery. Faster tempi (than romantically-inclined interpretations) are sometimes incidental outcomes, and not exclusive to Harnoncourt.

One ingredient for the observation, is at the time Harnoncourt was making strides in the 1950s, conductors were reading tempo markings of old music as if the metronome had already been invented (it is an early 1800s invention). Many famous pieces marked adagio, andante, largo, lento, (denoting a slow tempo) were performed comparatively faster than the romantic readings, as such markings were used quite liberally.

Another ingredient is that Harnoncourt had a unique reading of orchestral classical pieces that emphasized tempo and dynamic contrast (e.g. Mozart piano concerti, Beethoven symphonies), which may lead to perceive sections were played faster than usual.

And I don't think those traits were set on stone in his idearium. If he were alive today, my impression is he would revise his decades-old reading of Monteverdi's 1610 Vespers, perhaps with slower tempo, applying transpositions in the Magnificat, and refraining from doubling strings and brass in the Dixit Dominus.

That is to say, it's not really about tempo, or any specific performance feature, though that's all that may come to our ears, or that we may be able to understand without extensive music knowledge.
I've seen two theories floated:

1. Vitamin D as a side effect of sun exposure is not itself the important indicator. Instead, some other biological response increases immune response simultaneously. Hence, D supplementation is itself copying the wrong response.

2. Vitamin D deficiency is caused by illness, hence it actually doesn't affect mortality and the relationship is not casual.

Oh, it's very convenient to forget the fact that Poland has occupied Czechoslovakia territory in 38 as part of the Munich Agreement supported by the "free" world. "Hyena of Europe" is a really good description in my opinion.

It depends on where you live. Some places in northern latitudes such as the UK recommend everyone take daily Vitamin D supplements due to low UV exposure in the late-fall/winter/early-spring.

See https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vitamins-and-minerals/vitamin-...

As far as if that means you take that as a multi-vitamin pill vs D3 supplements alone I guess is up to the individual. But either option only costs a few dollars/pounds. Maybe I was a little loose with language saying multi-vitamin.

If so, and I think it is so, do capitalistic employers who employ highly paid employees (like software developers in the US) incentivize them (pay the cost and time to) check these things medically and get supplements etc? Brain fog and general sluggishness etc can directly impact the creative output of these highly paid professionals.
> Many of the most successful people I know don't have complicated systems like this

How do you know? Maybe their set of habits are a complicated system which they are just not aware of being a system, thus not they are not talking about as they consider it as natural or just obvious.

It seems to be some kind of effect of the internet that people talking about everything leads also to people making big science and systems out of every little detail and habit, seeking some big secret and stuff. While on the other side you have people making up cheap solutions on the spot and throw them away when they don't need them anymore, not calling it sytem or such.

> I see a similar trend with org-mode users. It's great and all on a technical level (I've used it myself in the past) but it's easy to fall into the elisp and customization rabbit hole. Over time, the few hours spent here and there to optimize the system add up to thousands of hours that could've been used to get stuff done.

Yes, customization is a curse. Given enough power, people ultimatly end in corruption until they learn to wield it wisely. But wisdom does not comes easily or fast.

> Just get stuff done.

There are always a multitude of ways to getting stuff done, but some are faster than others, or less exhausting. Thus people aim to be smart and find the best way, which can end in wasting more time on finding the best ways, but also can end in saving time on the grand scale. You need enough experience to smell which road is better and when you should leave it.

As many have pointed out, there is a discoverability problem with this feature and I don't see how that is fixable.

Reasons not to do HTTPS interception (2017)

Thank you, that is very high praise. I've worked hard on it, and I'm glad it's useful. If you ever get the chance, I would like to see what you build. I think wikis are a great opportunity to share ourselves represented in hypertext with others. You should check out https://sphygm.us/.

I suppose this is neither here nor there, but for the giggles, I've been trying to reach out to the cast of Stranger Things (they aren't easy to reach) to see if they would make wikis too; I'd like to get to know them (or their characters) through their own self-modeling.
Community Management? (2017)
I did switch from 2012 Macbook Air to 2019 Macbook Pro a few weeks ago and I can't agree more with the article. One of the reasons I'm using Mac instead of Linux is that I make music. And the new Macbook sucks for this purpose: the same recording settings I used on my old laptop are not usable on the new one. 90% of time things work fine, but sometimes I get glitches and pops in the middle of the recording. Why? Who knows. I did everything I could like closing other apps, disabling ton of things running in background; I freeze tracks in my DAW but things still break sometimes. I really hope some update from Ableton/Apple fixes things soon; if not I'm considering downgrade from Catalina.

But wait, there's more! Sometimes I got glitches even when I'm not recording but playing tracks. I have this problem on literally the same Ableton projects that used to "just work" on the old machine (same number of tracks/plugins). The workaround is to restart the laptop. Seriously, it feels like Windows XP all over. I can't imagine playing live shows with such unreliable setup - fortunately I just make tracks for my own, but if I were to go out for some kind of jam session or open mic I'd consider switching to Windows.

EDIT: One more thing that sucks about new MacOS: dropping 32 bit compatibility. RIP all 32 bit VSTs. Fortunately I don't use that many plugins and it turned out everything I really care about has 64 bit version. But if it didn't, then I'd hold on to the old OS as long as possible.
Good spot. Thank you for taking the time to point that out, much appreciated :)
Interesting. You're asking me questions I have not thought. We have an internal VM provider that we use, wrapped up in a way that does not give me a choice in the hardware. I can select RAM and how much storage I want, but nothing beyond that. This machine has 16GB RAM. The disc is not an SSD for certain.

Thank you for the resources. I will go through them.
No one is suggesting an overdose though. In the amount in the study it is harmless.

Not sure why Hokusai tried to point to that forum thread in this case, which shouldn't have anything to do at all with his comment? I guess, we will never know. :)
Absolutely. But part of the problem seems to be that black people all look the same to cops.
You've misunderstood my point.

We know that the butterfly ballots were a poor design that caused vote confusion, and we also know that Bush was less affected by this than Gore (by virtue of the fact that Bush was the first hole, and thus any misalignment caused by an oblique view would line up with no hole, as opposed to oblique views causing Gore's arrow to line up with Buchanan's hole).

From the actual results, we know there is a chunk of votes in Palm Beach for Buchanan that doesn't seem appropriate. According to Buchanan's campaign, this would be a bit shy of 3000 votes for Buchanan that should have been for Gore [1]. No recount would have changed these votes (nor should one), but a more accurate voting machine would have given these votes to Gore.

That's why I say that it seems safe to say that Gore legitimately won Florida, on the basis on what the voters intended to vote, but it's quite unclear what even the best recount would have said the winner is.

Definitely the database. How would I begin speeding that up?
Chromebooks are good for a lot of things (especially entertaining young kids) and are cheap. I find the quality to be much better than kid tablets which are terribly glitchy. A Windows laptop with only 2 GB of RAM (shocked you could still get that little) is like $400 and much larger than a Chromebook.

Powerstrips are necessary for makeshift home offices which are now everywhere. Hairclippers are important for people who regularly like haircuts. I usually go months, but know plenty of people who go weekly or bi-monthly.

Even without research saying vitamins have an impact on this disease, I think people would be grabbing anything with the potential to help (vitamins and certain medicines).
Are you saying that the views of the majority are better represented in dictatorships?
only 17 patients received DMB and 26 patients did not. Not many patients, not a double blind, randomized study, cannot see much validity in this.
My money is on 1. Vitamin D deficiency is caused by lack of sunlight. I'm skeptical of doctors telling me to avoid the sun and take a pill instead.

I appreciate that clarity; however, until karma sharing is implemented, should I just refrain from posting? Otherwise, the link I didn’t post is the one that I’d get scooped on. Happens a lot. And since they are different urls, the duplicate post detector is even less likely to work correctly. What is the proper expected site behavior in this case? Expected user behavior? I just want to meet or exceed community standards.

On a different point, I don’t know how it is possible to say which article is best at any given time on this topic as they all include additional information not present in other articles. I don’t mind if you remove one of these two posts with same content; I don’t mean to make a duplicate post.

A window is amazing! My first 3 jobs were window free as were jobs 7 and 8.

This is interesting - I think going backwards in time, different musical harmonic/sound conventions still make "sense" to us. Like you could be listening do music from nearly any period of time from the past 500+ years and it would broadly "make sense" to the listener, even if you weren't directly exposed to it before (with the exception of perhaps experimental 20th century atonal classical music, or microtonal music from other cultures).

But I'm not sure it works the other way around - if you took a 17th century person and played music from the last 50-100 years to them - Michael Jackson, bossa nova, Debussy, Smashing Pumpkins, whatever - they probably wouldn't "get it".
And why is that? I never even once played Solitaire and uninstalled Candy Crush without even looking at it.

What's the deal with this sudden hatred towards nonsense that was installed 35 years ago as well and had a way bigger impact on system resources (in terms of disk space and screen real-estate) than Candy Crush?

Is it because it's a mobile port - too colourful and too in-your-face about it being a mindless pastime than a boomer-style virtual card game that even came with a "boss-key"?

> How do you know? Maybe their set of habits are a complicated system which they are just not aware of being a system, thus not they are not talking about as they consider it as natural or just obvious.

You're absolutely right. But with that you are also just arguing about the definition of "system" - everything is a system in one way or another depending on where you draw the line. If I scribble stuff into my notebook and throw it away once it's full, you can call that a system.

By system here I meant a system or product that has a well-known name they can point to, like Zettelkasten or GTD or BASB, etc.
I am not looking forward to the day my 2015 MBP dies :(
I should have been more specific on location and vitamin. The UK government recommends everyone in the UK take daily supplements of Vitamin D during half of the year due to low sun exposure. It was a typo to say "multi-vitamin".
the mass of the iceshield / mass of the moon = 5 10^-4. But at a distance of 2000km compared to 4 10^5 km for the moon, the iceshield should have similar gravitational pull. the inverse square of 2000km / the inverse square of 4 10^5 km = 4 10^4. (4e4=(1/2000000^2)/(1/(4e8)^2))

Distance and mass seem to cancel out almost perfectly
Getting too much of many vitamins can harm your health though.
With temperatures hardly going above zero for five months each year and easily reaching -40C in some parts, I doubt many people would call it home at all without the help of fossil fuels.

There are certainly better ways to produce the energy we need, and I can only hope we'll find them soon; but let's not forget how much we owe to fossil fuels: probably most people on earth owe their very existence to them; discounting them just as a bad and shortsighted idea isn't really a fair assessment.
So... why wouldn't this show up consistently in the EGM96 data?

EGM96 is a definition of Earth's equipotential height constructed by measuring it with satellites like GRACE. Its as close to a definition of true sea level as you're going to get. But it doesn't have this kind of consistent uplift near tall masses throughout the model. The Southern Ocean's height is sinusoidal about Antarctica. We do see an increase in equipotential height in the Andes, and in the eastern Pacific nearby. But near the Himalayas the equipotential height is lower.

Would it be feasible to run a Windows Pro or Server version in a laptop?

Pro runs just fine on a laptop.

When people talk about Candy Crush they mean they see it first thing when they start Windows Store as a recommendation. It is definitely not pre-installed on Pro, if it is I haven’t found it in 4 years...
I don't think I've ever gotten close to the advertised battery life from any new laptop, Mac or Windows, but I probably use a lot of apps and settings that aren't battery friendly (e.g., I prefer a brighter than average display).
