Yes really. Keto still follows calories in/out. Low carb diets are just a way of restricting calories without counting them. People naturally restrict calories when eating low carb -- this is the sole reason it works. You can eat twinkies and mcdonalds and still lose weight if you eat little enough. You can eat no carbs or sugar and still gain weight if you eat more calories than your body needs.

Every diet that doesn't involve directly counting calories tricks you into restricting them in some way, putting you in a caloric deficit. Period. This is how every diet works.

My grandfather's book collection included Uneasy Money, a Gilded Age rom-com that sparked my love for Wodehouse.
The data is the same. Dexplot automatically sorts the xtick labels alphabetically. Seaborn uses order of appearance. For the seaborn plot, the figure size and dpi have to be manually adjusted and there is no option to wrap the tick labels. They are a mess and overlap one another. The tick label wrapping is a huge win imo, otherwise you have to rotate them, which makes long labels look terrible.
folks just gotta learn how to say no gracefully. it's a useful workplace skill anyway.

as for the branding, you can say no without conceding either side. the target of this twitterer seems to have done it successfully, keeping their job and not conceding either way.

note that i'm not taking sides here either. just making a point about having the fortitude to put social media in its proper place.

further, if you can't take a principled stand under pressure (another useful skill), it might be an indication that the stand isn't principled, or at the very least, you need to find the foundational principles on which to stand.
The title of the article, with your reply, succinctly describe the time we're in.
(1) This is difficult. You have to support multiple versions within the same executable. So there is an economic barrier.

(2) And sometimes, it is impossible. An example is supporting new iphonex+ aspect ratios. There's no way post-launch to 'go back' to the old scheme or go forward to the new.
Interesting little data point: I just asked my gf (who is from China mainland) to take a peep at WeChat, and it hasn't blown up with this story (yet?).
how does one get in touch with you?
Labels do not overlap and HTML tables are now fixed in the docs.
> Clearly someone who feels that the police are a malign force ordered them to leave.

I don't think that's remotely clear. No one in SPD's chain of command feels that way and they definitely don't take orders from outsiders.

> My guess is the mayor and/or the forces that pull her strings.

Certainly Durkan doesn't feel that SPD are a "malign force" — she's a former prosecutor and has only been supportive of SPD. Including and especially during the last few weeks. She also doesn't have the authority to direct SPD, aside from appointing a police chief. So she has some sway over Chief Best, but she and Best are buddy-buddy. And Best has consistently claimed she (Best) did not order the withdrawal.

My best guess is it was a political / tactical retreat by a lower-level leader to end the violence and save face. That or union action by East Precinct officers — they just didn't want to be there anymore.
Anything I can offer will be anecdotal. I have been placed somewhere on the autistic spectrum so perhaps that is a factor. People who constantly think and wrestle with things are driven to do so. Those who don't, aren't. I know of no way to manipulate or adjust this difference. I would say the thing to avoid at every turn is calcification, if you can...
Thank you for sharing this. I didn't know about that, and it's very interesting to me.

The parent comment referred to sparsely populated states. That is a function of population and land area.
Isn't it also possible that your friend is experiencing confirmation bias because they agree with CHAZ? It wasn't reported until much later but during the Occupy movement, rapes skyrocketed around and among the encampments. I have little doubt that there are a lot of things that are going unreported at the moment which will eventually come to light when people don't feel coerced or intimidated by the community (and they probably will barely make the news, unfortunately.) I've seen enough videos from inside the encampment to know that your post isn't the entire story. Group think is a very strange thing, and sometimes it takes a while of removing yourself from the group to realize some of the wrongs (look at cults/extremist groups.) Again, people said the same things about Occupy, I walked the grounds myself and it looked fine...but under the surface, women especially, were being taken advantage of/raped at a high rate.
Nothing is considered safe, and everything is considered borrowed time if you're storing encrypted data. Retrievable data isn't any less encrypted than hashes, it's just a bidirectional encryption.
The Chinese are pretty openly doing things that are expected to give them military, technological and commercial supremacy over the United States. The 5G situation suggests the Chinese strategy might work. Having the technical leadership position on communications is a pretty big deal.

If they lose the research edge, basically the only structural advantages America has is (1) public elections, (2) likely more advanced legal theory and (3) not being an ethnostate. If they don't succeed in bringing those advantages into play then the US military is "soon" going to confined to the American continent.

The US is going to have legal problems with this Chinese activity and is going to try and do something about it, whether that is intellectually honest or not.
The fellow did serve as an officer in the PLA and indicated as much on his visa application. Nothing would be easier for the Chinese military than to approach former officers and encourage them to join a university and apply for a scientific exchange visa in the US. If there was genuine concern the visa would have been sent to administrative processing long ago and then denied.

It doesn't make sense, especially since the researcher will have shared what he did with the intelligence officer at his installation. Any officer of any country would have done that.

Meanwhile the US charge him with nothing worse than visa fraud. They could at least point to the stolen IP. It's all very baffling.
What is their email? I've never found one that they'd respond to.
Yes, gamers don't give a toss about the tech details [0], and they shouldn't, Sony gave a presentation about all of the internals of the PS5 and all they got in response was "ZZzzZZZZZZ".

They only want the console for the games, man, nothing else.

Are any of these magical load times and such going to actually happen?

I feel like gaming companies really don't emphasize load times unless they have to and their energy goes into pretty graphics or other things.

In theory couldn't they have ultra fast load times now if they just lowered the amount they needed to load to start? / Manage the amount of content they need to load to start?

I wonder if they'll just focus on pushing any speed benefits into....load times for even more assets, pretty graphics or whatever they choose.

In the meantime console announcement promises/ hype have a terrible history as far as accuracy goes...
You completly ignored everything that I said
Well sugar beets excluding water content are about 85% sucrose. Sugar production and consumption dates to antiquity, long before mass western obesity epidemics, a luxury item. It essentially became a staple food in the North American diet in the 20th century.

Anyway, honey has a higher concentration of fructose so it has a lower GI than table sugar, but this difference is quite moderate (a few percent) - it seems to get overstated a lot on the web. Honey is basically refined/processed fuel produced by bees - and on evolutionary time scales it has been in use by humans about the same as sugar. Don’t get me wrong, it has chemical and physical properties that make it a beneficial sugar alternative - probably most of which is earlier satiety and therefore less consumption. If consumed in similar quantities it’s still going to make you fat. TANSTAAFL.

My grandparents are probably older than average... but the life expectancy was a fair bit shorter just 100 years ago. Most didn’t even get the opportunity to live long enough to have gastric cancer (smoked meats) or a second MI.
I can sing that song too. However, I'm in a good place now, and what went before led to here, so I don't let "might have beens" cloud todays joys. Trite, but true.
Do they actually have a live chat available for smaller advertisers? When I looked last year there wasn't
What matters to me is how the screw ups are handled.

If I can make a few phone calls, verify some ai-flagged transaction is legit, and clear things up in a few days max, then the occasional screw up is just a fact of life.

If I have to talk to a brick wall for months or years and have my money frozen for paper thin reasons and the side who made the mistake takes no responsibility, then it doesn't really matter how rare it is. I'm not touching that business.
Nice try....

Its not something that didn't exist 50 years ago. I don't care.
Do you have unified keyboard navigation inside of text editors across all linux applications?

Can you reliably cut and paste between all applications?

Can you open the menu items with the keyboard?

It could be the applications, but I find to get the smooth OSX experience I need to tweak every single application's preferences, many of which do not have have the required level of control, then I need to resort to xmodmap, etc, this is the path to ruin, rather than modify my system I have to modify myself which hurts but I am ultimately more flexible than software.

I have come to the realization that the desktop OS you run doesn't matter, use what works for you. I would absolutely love to run Libre software for everything, but it isn't possible.

Maybe someone will create a window manager that also does live binary patching and instrumentation, I am convinced that this is the only way, but by the time that comes, everything will run in the browser anyway.
Nope. We've lost the ability to criticize an idea without the other side assuming it's an attack.

I say De-fund/Disband the Police is a stupid idea to the wrong person, I get branded as a Republican/Trump Supporter/Nazi/Bootlicker. There is a chance my professional career would end.

I say being transgender is weird or something to the wrong person, I get branded as a homophobic bigot. There is a chance my professional career would end.

Those are two hot button issues that I just came up with due to the news. There's a reason I don't have a public profile associated with myself. The wrong person sees something, and they're up their ass just enough, something can be taken out of context and used to destroy my future.

I'd rather be two-faced then risk what I've built.
Silence is complicency, for racial hate crimes and actions, yes, i agree, you should t stand by and let bad shit happen.

This isn't silence though, this is rejecting an order to partake in a protest.

Even if it is silence, staying silent is still a right.

Harrassing people for silence is akin to harassing people exercising their freedom of speech.
I lost it because there was some sort of UI bug in the ad preview page that led the page to reload a bunch of times really quick, and boom, I'm apparently a criminal. You're lucky though, I never got it back and I had to change my business credit card because they somehow kept charging me after suspension.
This is the correct answer. Hashing can happen at many different layers in the app or even as a ephemeral Postgres function call in the database. Storing hashes is not storing secrets. If one has to worry about exposing the lock to public, then there is something wrong with the security of that lock. Use a better lock.
This article of course focuses primarily on the consoles with an interesting gathering of some of the lower level details behind "fast SSD". But while it compares it to servers what it really brought to mind to me was mainframes, which often had not particularly impressive CPU specs at first glance but were kings of IO and offloading. It made me wonder if over the next decade we'll see yet another example of the cyclical nature of the tech industry in PCs. I haven't been following storage super closely for a bit, but it hasn't been that long yet the numbers the author tosses out in terms of "by the end of the year everyone will be doing 6-7+ GB/s" felt pretty staggering. Combined with the sudden leap forward in system bandwidth thanks to AMD, and after a fairly long period of stagnation around HDDs and the limits of SATA it feels like a huge amount of progress in storage is happening at an enormous clip. And that is leading to the discovery of bottlenecks elsewhere, like with ZFS Issue #8381 [1] where the ARC meant to improve performance actually becomes troublesome. AMD has really pushed available PCIe bandwidth up dramatically with EPYC 2 doing up to 128 GB/s, yet with drive numbers like those arrays could actually be made to get towards it already!

As the article says that kind of IO becomes a real strain on valuable general purpose CPU time. So I wonder if we'll actually start to see regular PCs begin offloading again, reversing the generalize everything a bit with more support specialized silicon so that they can actually feed the beast. I could see that having real implications for a lot of future software and OS development too, particularly for OSS. If things go that way I hope some good open standards can get out ahead of it.

That idea (words shaping thought) is near the top of my list of "stupid things that smart people believe and repeat".

Think about the history of words with a negative connotation that people try to replace, and how the new euphemism acquires the previous negativity.

dang doesn't like it when people say correlation is not causation, but dammit, the fallacy is everywhere! Changes in language accompany changes in thought, but it's not causal.
You missed the point. I don't want to take any principled stands. That's not why I came to work.
What Go did for the tooling space cannot be underestimated, it is wonderful and we will never go back to the before time.
Oh yeah, I agree with you. I was replying to the above commenter about the Jetbrains subscription system and trying to understand how it differs from a pay-to-upgrade system.
That’s simply not true. It is a mistake to project your coarse impression of Twitter onto every individual tweet.
Facebook was pouring resources into their HTML5 mobile apps ten years ago. I’m not saying web apps on mobile feel native now by any means, but I don’t think that’s a good example of a big company trying and failing anymore.
Ah, so maybe teargassing the 1 "innocent" person in a crowd of 99 "rowdy" protesters is wrong?

Police believe in collective punishment. So deliver it to them.
Are there still people now who doubt that it's an official policy at paypal to make money on freezing people's accounts on every pretext?

My first experience litigating with paypal actually dates to years right after my secondary, when I was an exchange student in Singapore.

I had a paypal registered on my Russian debit card, and used it for trading on ebay.

And yes, one nice day I learned that they want me to prove them that I am not Bennie Laden, with each successive document submission being less, and less reasonable, like demanding a notarised bank statement with wording that no sane Russian bank would issue in its right mind.

So, I read the contract, and I saw "agree to dispute resolution under law of Republic of Singapore," which was a rather weird thing to see on a commercial contract from Paypal Russia LLC.

And so, I got the name of the case officer at Paypal, and had a writ of summon delivered to him in person, myself in a few days. There was no way to describe terror on his face. I remember an exchange:

- "Are you that person lawyer?"

- "No, I am that guy"

They settled on the first hearing.

Only few years later, it came to me that they could have buried me with legal fees, even with court fees alone if they've chosen to continue.
There's no need to be weak and frail. You can actually do a lot about physical deterioration ... up to a point. In one of the triathlons I raced last year the retired Marine who won the 70 - 79 age group was only a few minutes slower than me.

The key to staving off muscle atrophy and loss of bone mineral density is doing high-impact training and weightlifting at least a couple times per week, while maintaining proper form to avoid injury. The digestive system also becomes less efficient at absorbing some nutrients so you have to increase protein intake in order to have the necessary building blocks for repairing damaged muscle tissue.

I'm going to keep this guide simple for the people new to IM. This is not something huge, is possible to scale, but goes to show you that old fashioned hard work still works.

Below is a screenshot that shows you how much money I've been able to make on a side project promoting products only using blog comments/reddit comments/forum posts, also known by some old-timers as the "Meathead method".
How do you find those, though? There are no filters. Only way I can do it is to tap through each search result, scroll down to “In-App Purchases: Yes”, tap it, and (99% of the time) see something like “Bucket of Gems: $99.99”) and “nope” back out.
It does look like a content farm
That Orwell article is brilliant from start to finish ("there are other culprits who are nearer home and better worth chasing"). We think of Orwell as a political and moral writer more than an arty one (and he famously wrote about how he sacrificed his art to politics), but this is among other things a fantastic piece of literary criticism. Examples:

How closely Wodehouse sticks to conventional morality can be seen from the fact that nowhere in his books is there anything in the nature of a sex joke. This is an enormous sacrifice for a farcical writer to make.

Just as an intelligent Catholic is able to see that the blasphemies of Baudelaire or James Joyce are not seriously damaging to the Catholic faith, so an English reader can see that in creating such characters as Hildebrand Spencer Poyns de Burgh John Hanneyside Coombe-Crombie, 12th Earl of Dreever, Wodehouse is not really attacking the social hierarchy.

It is nonsense to talk of ‘Fascist tendencies’ in his books. There are no post-1918 tendencies at all.

Orwell obviously knows Wodehouse inside-out, right back to obscure early books, which must mean that he was a fan. Why read them otherwise?
I’m not too familiar with Gab, but are you implying that Twitter is exclusively a platform for left wing mobs? If so, you are mistaken, and this coarse impression of what Twitter is should not be projected onto every single tweet.
This is why, when given the choice between CS:GO and predecessors, I'll usually pick CS:S. In the CS1.x days I had a "home" server, we BSed and played together all the time, and cheaters / troublemakers were promptly dealt with. Afterwards, I had a CS:S "home" server for years until it shut down a while back. Maybe 2018? I just don't get that same experience from CS:GO.

I still play CS:S.
A field guide is a book designed to help the reader identify ??algorithms?? or other relevant ??objects?? (e.g. ??data structures??). It is generally designed to be brought into the 'field' or local area where such objects exist to help distinguish between similar ??algorithms?? and ??objects??. Field guides are often designed to help users distinguish what may be similar in appearance but are not necessarily closely related.

It will typically include a description of the objects covered, together with paintings or photographs and an index. More serious and scientific field identification books, including those intended for students, will probably include identification keys to assist with identification, but the publicly accessible field guide is more often a browsable picture guide organized by family, colour, shape, location or other descriptors.

This barely qualifies as a field guide. A survivalist would have thrown a wildlife field guide of this quality in the trash, or on the store shelf.

The problem is that in some cases you are forced to upgrade your tool and turn it into a toy. Windows 10 is an example. macOS Catalina (required for latest Xcode which itself is required to target latest iOS) is another one and I've been bitten by it.
It was different which means their was some arguable advantages, but it was less reusable and even more expensive to operate. They effectively copped the worst aspects of the shuttle and then made a lot of sacrifices to get it to fly. Which is why it only had a single unmanned flight.
I think it is largely irrelevant, except that it can be useful to debunk people whose arguments depend on false claims about what the founding fathers believed.
Hopefully single player only games should support that. It's a standard supported configuration on xbox one right now to connect any USB3.0 >250GB HDD externally and move games onto that.

With PS5 there should be a number of single player games where greatly-increased loading times won't have a negative impact on anyone else, unlike multiplayer games where everyone should load into a map at the same time. I have in mind the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, and the upcoming Assassin's Creed.
I think you may have failed to notice that there's more than one page to this article. Page 1 covers the SSD hardware itself, and page 2 covers the other storage-related hardware that's not actually on the SSD itself.
Then you have to pay everyone. Otherwise you will radically increase crime, because people will want that free cash.
I literally just gave three or four entire industries where I feel it's almost certainly an important career skill based on my career contact with those fields.

The lack of responsiveness comments have to one other on the internet is disorienting to me, because I would have thought that this would merit acknowledgement. Your anecdote may as well have dropped out of the sky in response to basically any comment in this thread.
I've done similar things in the past, but my value to those companies' competitors was much lower than Keller's would be, presumably, to someone like AMD vis-a-vis internal problems and short-term strategic thinking. The importance of enforcing a noncompete and accompanying garden leave increases pretty linearly with how senior you are in your industry, in my experience.

Either way, I imagine we'll find out soon enough.
Ah, but first person offers so many wonderful opportunities for wit and voice that are impossible in third, and Wodehouse takes great advantage of that, with Bertie Wooster as the narrator of most of the stories (I can't remember if it's a single story or a whole book that are narrated by Jeeves) and providing a wonderful example of unreliable narration. I wish I'd remembered that when I was looking for good unreliable narrators for a craft piece I wrote during my MFA.
Keep your cardiovascular system healthy. In many older people the loss of intellect is simply caused by insufficient glucose and oxygen reaching the brain. Everything is connected; intellect isn't some separate quality that can be maintained on its own.

Of course some people start from a higher baseline and so a slight loss of intellect is less noticeable.
