Everyone knows judges and lawyers are widely respected among fisherman for their deep and nuanced understanding of bodies of water and the organisms that reside within them.

This argument is a fallacy as they all have assistants and do research before making their case/ruling. Replace tech and fishing with any activity you like and the fallacy remains and remains obvious as that.

I have tried keto, intermittent fasting (18/6), and Omad. Both were fine for short-term losses.

The thing that stuck was:

- finding my maintenance calories by journaling and meal prep (weighing food in advance). I found my maintenance calories to be about 2800 per day.

- reducing my caloric intake by about 250 calories net.

- replacing some of the fats and carbs in my diet with more protein (actually above the 1gr/lb lean body mass suggested but I find proteins more filling and delicious).

- walking for about 3-4 hours a week (super important). If I can't walk due to weather I use a stationary bike. I do relatively low intensity cardio this way that isn't hard on joints but I do it for an hour at a time.

- resistance training with the periodization strategy seriously 3-5 times a week (4-5 hours a week total), focusing on progressive overload and training everything.

- making it a permanent lifestyle decision. Not "I'm doing this for 3 months to lose weight" but finding an exercise routine, permanent diet, and foods that aren't calorie dense so that I can feel full and get the right amount of calories.

-adjusting my food intake by tracking a weekly rolling weight average and dropping calories if required (something that hasn't really happened since I picked up so much exercise)

I don't know what the studies say but I can tell you this is the only way that has been successful for me. Ive lost about 50 lbs, 6 pants sizes in a year and gained a lot of muscle as well.

I don't think you can permanently lose weight without committing to a new lifestyle. My old lifestyle made me fat. Temporarily dropping weight and returning to it will just yoyo my health.

Instead you have to find a new permanent lifestyle that is on the trajectory you need. That why weight watchers will almost never be a real weight loss program - everyone is there to look for zero point foods and eat cake. Perhaps by accident they will arrive there but not by following weight watchers

Anyone could implement my strategy on weight watchers or intermittent fasting but I found I could not sustain the exercise if I was fasted and I felt terrible. My way seems to be a good solution for me. I still eat bread, I occasionally have ice cream (although within my caloric deficit), i eat delicious foods that I enjoy eating but that aren't dense with calories and I don't see any reason to stop - this is just how I am from now on. Eventually it all becomes habit and the discipline required drops. I still hate cardio but doing sustained steady state makes it bearable and weight training is now something I look forward to.
So don't do it for ads, but you should do it for ranking. You have a large body of content waiting to be exposed and once it does, if you later decide to write a book or do conferences or do training, then your blog will help you achieve that. You should be rewarded for the effort you have put into helping other people.

Agreed. I'm one of the rare folks around here who, despite decades of deep Unix experience, prefer decent GUIs to the command line, and Cocoa really is the best you can get in general use today.

"the rise of the vegan movement. Such trends entrench the shift of political power away from traditional farms and local markets towards biotech companies and multinationals."

Given the capital and technology needed to produce these plant based "animal" stuffs (beyond "meats", almond "milk", etc) it's no surprise that the only ones capable of entering this market are big players who can buy out any newcomer who might threaten their dominance --but this is lost on fierce advocates whose only aim is to reduce animal protein without considering unintended consequences.

I've never personally seen it done, but couldn't you do this with the Unicode Private-Use Area? Assuming you have your own blog where you control the CSS, you could sprinkle in a few private-use codepoints, and then add a custom web font to the CSS font fallback that defines glyphs for those same codepoints.

(I know putting a document with Private-Use codepoints up on the public web would go against the philosophy of Unicode; and that the correct thing to do here would be to email the Unicode Consortium about the need for your character. [They'll probably agree!] But, ignoring the philosophy, in practice this would still work. And at least you're not directly confusing machines that try to extract semantics from the text, the way e.g. Wingdings fonts do.)

My solution is to use standard industry practices while supporting non profits and politics that improve the overall ecosystem.

It's what adults do. But I guess attacking strangers on the internet is where true class comes from?

> We're not doing that jointly buddy. You are the one doing it and you only get away with it by trying to hide it as you mentioned just above.

The only reason I'm doing it is because it's industry standard practice and it works. You can't bring a knife to a gun fight. Acting like that can happen just shows me you aren't well engaged with the real world. Insinuating my small business clients should not segment email audiences while their competitors do it is just unrealistic and disconnected from how the world operates.

Real world people who actually care about privacy and not grandstanding or throwing rocks in an effort to virtue signal... they actually sign up at EPIC and EFF and contact senators and congressman about specific privacy legislation.

> .reduce((a,[k,v]) => ({ ...a, [k]: [...a[k] ?? [], v] }), {}))

Note that this unfortunately common pattern is quadratic, which is usually not a good idea, and can have conflicts between entries and properties of Object.prototype. A similar implementation without those problems:

.reduce((a, [k, v]) => a.has(k) ? a.set(k, [v]) : (a.get(k).push(v), a), new Map())

And an alternate implementation:

const input = new URLSearchParams("foo=1&foo=2&foo=3&blah=a&blah=b");
const result = new URLSearchParams();

for (const key of input.keys()) {
if (!result.has(key)) {
result.set(key, input.getAll(key).join(","));
}
}

return String(result);

How much time do you have to register to vote, by state?
I made this little app because for me, at least, it’s a lot easier to understand that I have two more days to do something, versus knowing it’s October 4th (or whenever), especially during this time when quarantine life has us questioning the days anyway!

It made me realize how laws about registering to vote can vary so much from state to state. It can be pretty confusing... I tried to put state-specific info in here on registering too; whether you can register online, and whether you can register on Election Day, for instance.

Hope this helps someone! :)
Well, I said "maybe." I have to watch it. I am not entirely optimistic, but am a bit of a gambler. The last direct listing I bought (Slack aka WORK) went badly.

Amazon introduces the Amazon One to pay with your palm when entering stores
I have a dislike of the idea that people with a disbility who band together for social and emotional support have a right to inflict their disability upon others who may otherwise be spared. I see it in deaf societies who want to ban hearing aids or cochlear implants. Are there other groups, like amputees who want to ban prosthetic limbs? Or blind people who want to block vision acquisition or restoration research?
I believe we need to work to restore people to as close to normal functionality as possible, so they can become part of the larger society. That said, all possible assistance should be given to people with these various disbilities.

This shows so much of a misunderstanding of history it’s hard to know where to start.

The Macintosh was in no way closed in the 80s. How could it be? There was no memory protection, and you could hack at the system and make it do all sorts of things via extensions.

There were plenty of third party compilers. In the early 90s, developers didn’t even use Apple’s toolchain. For the most part they used MetroWorks.

Under Gassee (founder of Be) they went after margins instead of going after market share. Jobs said that himself when he came back.

Microsoft was also never forced to provide options in the US.
It's important to keep in mind that this was merely a preliminary hearing, not the full trial. It was abbreviated by design. The entire thing was a couple hours at most? The only question at issue here was temporary injunctions. Nobody had time to present their full trial arguments.
Grab all your posts and sort them in some kind of logical grouping and order. Decide which ones are still useful, update those that you can, and create a book out of them. Call the book something like, "1000+ answers to your most asked questions." Once you have that, publish it as an ebook. Don't give it away for free. Price it at $19.99 but have specials every so often maybe for $2.99. From that point on add it to every message that you respond to. Tada, you've become a published author with the cred of a technical book. Believe me when I tell you, you can make a career out of it. Add your contact info. so that you can get some public speaking gigs out of it. Given your past of answering questions as a hobby, you'll be able to update the book every few years. Don't look at the book as the money maker, you'll get relatively little money, but as the tool that will expand your career. At the very least, you can add it to your resume.

High priced consultants do this all the time. You should do it. You've written the material already.
It seems like you are talking about publishing research work in book chapter rather than peer reviewed articles.

A book usually covers a selected topic in depth and in a coherent manner. This is particular useful for graduate students. Besides, some book authors also invite their friends to give comments. The impact of a book can be as rigorous and significant as journal articles.

Adults understand that the world works on a basis of game theory.

Adults understand that if my client doesn't engage in standard industry practices they will be at a disadvantage, and their business will eventually lose out to businesses that do engage in standard industry practices.

User education in the form of sharp things sticking up toward one's palm? Just guessing.

Political reform? How many people protesting actually voted in their municipal and state elections?

Even if that were the case, it would be a pretty solid argument to focus on more tractable problems rather than whatever the past few months have been.

Saying "Other options have been tried and failed." Is BS post-hoc justification. This round of BLM started because of 1 egregious viral video in a country of 300,000,000 when a whole bunch of young people had nothing better to do. When your dealing with complex systems like police-community interactions, you will never be able to completely eliminate egregious incidents, even if you can reduce the incident rate by 90%. Any kind of legitimate attempt to improve the situation will necessarily involve something resembling multiple A/B tests carried out over multiple areas and multiple years to understand the relationship between policy, environment, culture, and policing outcomes. This will necessarily take time, it will be extremely expensive, and the gains will be marginal. That's just how things work when your dealing with massive complex systems and rare events.
I hope you put a video at the top of your article with captures of the issues

Various studies have shown that (perhaps surprisingly) just giving people cash works better... I can't read the article (paywall) but I expect that's the point of this trial too.

Of course, it would be good to it while also offering help with education, any substance abuse issues people might have, etc. but the paternalistic kind of "can't trust people on welfare to spend their own money" view just makes things worse. We've definitely seen it in Australia, they created a cashless debit card that locks out certain types of spending and trialled it in certain areas. It's been a massive failure, people not being able to get cash out to pay rent, it doesn't work in a lot of stores, forcing people to higher priced shops that are part of the system, the card has a lot of stigma attached to it so people are ashamed to use it, social outcomes are worse, and the administrative cost per person is about half as much as the actual annual amount given in welfare (!!) but the company that runs the scheme has links to the party that is in Government and donates to politicians so they're expanding the trials of scheme...

Your competing product's org has a bad track record here of canceling new tools, so from that perspective, the small, neutral, and fully open solution seems safer choice given the two. I'd reconsider barking up this tree.

More objectively: It's new, production architects of "serious" code shouldn't depend on either. However, one of them represents a lot of "boring" stacks, so if a team is comfortable forking vs NIH'ing, this may be closer to "serious" production-worthy.

The idea is pretty cool IMO - we were looking at Replicated years ago, and if they had gone open like this, we would have considered them more seriously.
