Agreed... I'm not sure what of value is really left for non-contributing users on the site.

This is a similar tactic that MS has been using towards their documentation as well, so it's not so bad and for those most likely to contribute to technical documentation like this, the overlap with Github is significant enough.
That's better than other newspapers whose whole news section is just an opinion section by all metrics.
No, there's not a "both sides do it" situation in this production of intentionally misleading content in the most prominent newspapers.
For general news, I would still prefer the common touchstone, and diversity of an Economist, FT, Post or NYT. Each of these papers has their weak and strong points (ie. some have covered tech better than others).

In more specialized fields, sure nothing beats an expert.
This is published in Nature, which does not traffic in garbage. This is an observational (not experimental) study which means that the subjects already planned to fast in observance of Ramadan, and the paper discussed what was observed wrt to health and cancer indicators. It's not a polemic.

I've tried various IF protocols, particularly a four hour feeding window, and have mostly struggled with it. I've just gotten hungry early or late, and after a few weeks succumbed. Or I find myself going to bed way early to evade my hunger. IF hasn't been impossible for me, but difficult.

And then suddenly, it's easy, natural. Now I eat just once or twice a day without intending to. It would be an effort to eat more. The difference for me is a carnivore diet, mostly beef. It's just far more satiating than anything else I've tried and I've done most things from raw veganism to this.

I do believe that when I eat matters, but what I eat makes a big difference to when.

In hindsight, I think one of the smartest decisions I made for myself was to first try coffee black. Since I didn't know any better, it was extremely easy to commit to it, and I am appreciative of it today. I wish I could influence more people to do it at their age, because I think a lot of people would appreciate it when they're older.
> It's clear you've had experiences that have caused you to feel unsafe at times in your life. What's stopping you from having empathy for people that feel that way currently?

That the current approach is playing right into the hands of the bullies.

Or do you think it is the awkward ones who are sitting on the CoC tribunal?

As far as I can see this is yet another place for the socially and politically strong ones to get their way.

> One aspect of this newfangled definition of safe is that women can feel confident existing in a space without fear of being sexually harassed. Is that worth considering? Is that a political game?

I'm absolutely fine with women feeling safe. In fact there are at least a couple of women around who are thankful because I have fixed them a job or something. (To be clear, I help everyone, not only women.)

It is absolutely worth considering such things, which is why we (at least were I live) have laws against such things, and also why I am in favour of those laws.

What I am not in favour of is independent kangaroo courts popping up everywhere, making up rules as they go, combining the role of judge, jury and executioner etc.

Kangaroo courts are for war, and even then only when there's no other option.
What? This statement is so hyperbolic.

- Pho in general in the US is pretty close to Pho in Ho Chi Minh. i.e. Turtle Tower doing Chicken Pho is pretty good and close.

- Dim sum is dim sum. The places in Chinatown serve a Ha Gau or Siu Mai and largely the same in Hong Kong... how is it not authentic?

- Japanese... Nigiri, sashimi is.... authentic? To say there's zero authentic Japanese seems too. Seriously, sashimi how is it not authentic? It's "just" a piece of cut fish.

If you're speaking about quality then 100% I agree. The quality/etc... is not nearly as amazing as the origin locations, but the flavors aren't drastically different.

Come to Singapore where all foods have sugar added which considerably changes the flavor profile.

To claim zero authentic in SF...

[EDIT]
To qualify my side - authenticity should be a very low bar, which should be ingredients, quantity and process should match to generally create a similar flavor profile.

It shouldn't matter who, where, what the place looks like.
I do this every year as a part of Ramadhan. Though I am not very religious - fasting and taking a break from the usual each year is uplifting, deeply spiritual and of course has health benefits..

"Someone said so in an interview" isn't really compelling evidence. Do you know of actual evidence of this? Studies?
Few things:

1100 calorie deficit is a bit extreme. Shoot for 500, or maybe 750 if you are pretty heavy.

How much protein did you eat? You'll maintain more muscle if you eat more protein.. consider 50% of calories from protein. Lifting weights also helps with maintaining lean muscle mass.

Alcohol can mess a lot with fluid retention. A good strategy for that when measuring progress is to weigh yourself each day but only look at the average weight over two weeks to see if you are progressing in the right direction.

That one factoid, namely that two of their writers were of the wrong persuasion almost 20 years ago, seems to be the extend of criticism people can actually come up with when put on the spot. Even though they had plenty of opposition against the war on staff and on paper, and very few of their readers were likely to change their opinion on that topic. And, not being having the presidency and Congress at that point not being neccessary for a declaration of war, their mostly Democratic audience had little to no influence on events.

It's noticeable that nobody ever faults the Republican Party, which actually made the decision to invade Iraq. And also to lie to the world, its citizens, and, yes, those people at the Times that were naive enough to believe them.
I gave episode one a shot -- you're right, definitely strange. Someone basically recorded a convo with their friend about drugs and played it back with an animation. Reminds me of some Newgrounds content back in the day.
The lord of the flies was made up. Here’s an actual anecdote of what happens (spoiler, they work together): https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/may/09/the-real-lord-...
The Dutch have been living below sea level for centuries. It’s not the end of the world and ultimately dikes cost a lot less than losing significant land area and moving massive population centers. A few places like Florida that are awkwardly situated above porous rock like limestone and have little elevation above sea level even well inland are kinda screwed, but for the most part sea level rise is an expensive but entirely solvable problem.
Hey, CEO of Twingate here. Splitting traffic off the device is just one element of the product - we provide significantly more controls than a typical "split tunnel VPN." You can set up the traffic segregation to go to any arbitrary number of destinations which can be in one cloud VPC, VPCs across multiple clouds, on-prem, routed via a VPC-egress for IP-based restrictions, or classic bypass which just exits the device normally. The segregation happens automatically without the user having to manual switch network profiles to access different environments. Our app just sits in the background and your traffic gets to where it needs to go.

You can also apply granular controls over how each connection is routed based on security and access policies. These policies are tied to your identity (via your IDP - Okta, Gsuite, etc) for easy user mgmt. You're essentially able to setup identity-based access controls on any destination address whether it's a web app, database, ssh server, etc. Very flexible by design and we get a ton of folks in devops & infra using it.

On the network side, we also eliminate the need for a public VPN gateway so there's no public attack surface on your private network/resources. Our connectors sit behind your firewall and are deployed as an overlay to your existing network topology so you don't have to reconfigure all your existing segmentation.

Sum it all up and it's much more powerful than just a split-tunnel VPN. Check it out for yourself at www.twingate.com - it's free to get started :)

That is plausible. It's also plausible Amazon, who famously has poor customer service and often makes mistakes when their automated system glitch, has done so yet again.

You are, of course, free to assume that in a dispute one party is telling the unvarnished truth and the other is lying.
If it was just split-tunneling than yes :)

Yup they single handedly took down wirecard and risked their reputation for it.
Biggest problem with templating libraries like mustache is they aren’t context aware, so it is up to the programmer to remember the proper way to escape based on where a variable is used.
I tried that app a very long time ago, and then in an update they forced users to create an online account with no local use option. I promptly removed it since I’m averse to creating online accounts when I see no good reason to do it.
You say "by definition a right-wing form [...] it uses class divides to build its political power", but how does that match the right? The very first thing I associate with obtaining power via class divides is Karl Marx. There's also Mao, Lenin, Pol Pot, and anybody in modern USA politics who complains about the "1%ers" or "income inequality". I'm really really not seeing how that matches up as you claim it does. I think you need to accept the uncomfortable and obvious conclusion here.
And then you get the $10k/month/person nursing home cost.
The world's poor are the victims of famines, yet the GP was worried about food riots for themselves personally. If they live in a developed country, that is ridiculous. If there's global famine, they'll simply use their money to buy food for themselves, pushing the price up so poor Africans can't afford it. That's what we did during the 2008 food price crisis.
The point is to rely on the abstractions. :) I get similar feelings, especially having been burned by software in the past that purported to abstract things properly. But perhaps unlike other frameworks/libraries, I think Rails has solid abstractions. Of course they're not perfect, but much like abstractions provided by an OS, they are complex, and you mostly don't have to worry about implementation details. (And when you do, that's okay, because the documentation is solid too and the code is available.)

I've been working with Django lately and I definitely had to learn to let go and trust stuff like the ORM. But after watching migrations get handled automatically and easily adding foreign key relationships to tables, I was hooked. I used to be firmly in the "almost never ORM" camp, but that's changed.
This is great. Thanks for sharing. Would love to know how you did it. Why haven't you used some kind json API?

And as someone who works in CAD/CAM/robotics software, these issues apply to robotic coordinate systems, too: World coordinates, joint coordinates, polar coordinates (not the same as high-latitude GIS coordinates, think angle + distance instead of X and Y), tool coordinates, tool offsets, work offsets - all of those are just vectors of 3-6 numbers. Instead of esoteric international standards, and huge modern software packages, we have a lot of old machines, a lot of old code, and a lot more tendency towards 80s-style strategies: Post a sign stating "Do not dumb here!" and leave it all up to the operator to get it right.

There's nothing like telling your 6-figure CNC or multi-axis robot to make a piece of carbide occupy some space where you currently have precision-ground hardened steel because someone left a G92 somewhere you didn't expect it to be. Though I suppose that errors can be at least that expensive in GIS if you're quoting civil engineering or real estate...
So they were wrong 20 years ago, and another 80 years before that?

Even ignoring how these accusations oversell some supposedly uniform position of the the paper, that sounds like a pretty good batting average.
A large fraction of the human population have been living in parts of the world where the external environment is lethal for months of the year for thousands of years. It’ll certainly be an interesting development when air conditioning becomes a matter of life and death the way heating in winter already is in much of the world, but air conditioning is also much less energy intensive than heating.

If the simple planar distance and the geodetic distance are significantly different and you use the planar distance for some analysis then the best case will be you got your analysis wrong, the worst case would be that you have bought the wrong quantity of material or built some unworkable or unnecessary. Or you just misplace where poles are and work crews waste time finding them, or you give wrong information for call before you dig queries and somebody goes straight through a pipe or conduit.

GIS systems are an area where software and the physical world can meet in ways many devs don’t appreciate.
By coincidence, I am doing it now. I always drink water first thing in the morning in order to restore fluids after sleep. I am also drinking coffee with milk, but no sugar. Lastly, I am drinking some psyllium husk powder that I blend into a couple of mugs of water.

I take the psyllium husk at about 10am. Then I have another coffee or two, but no meals until dinner time, about 6pm.

I started doing this just this week because my father had an angiogram which lead to the discovery that some of his coronary arteries where quite block with plaque. This is disturbing for me as he has looked after himself pretty well for his whole life. He's not a smoker or heavy drinker, eats well, doesn't snack, isn't a sweet tooth. And he has exercised consistently for his whole life. And yet, his arteries are in shit state.

So I have to wonder if it's genetic. So I figure I'll try to increase the soluble and insoluble fibre intake as it is said to inhibit the absorption of cholesterol. I also want to drop a couple of kilos I've put on during lockdown.
Agreed ! In the beginning (golden age ?) I spend way less time on P.B and torrents.

Now with more services than ever I'm only have access to two services:

a) Netflix - (via gf account)

b) Amazon Prime (own account). The last year or two I'm back to doing a lot more torrenting !

We've never had it so good in terms of overall content, yet we have never had it as expensive to access say my "top15 Films/Shows" if they are widely spread across service providers.

PS/Sidenote: I do miss channel hopping (click-click oh what is this ?)

Hey, CEO of Twingate here. There are some similarities but we view ourselves as much lighter weight and flexible than ZS. A few ways we're different:
- We eliminate the performance penalty of routing all your traffic through their cloud. We do almost all our routing decisions and authorization checks on-device to minimize performance hits.
- Our service is protocol agnostic, so things like SSH, RDP, etc work out of the box (no special SSH proxies, SSH settings, etc).
- We also let you try it out for free and our pricing is transparent :)

That said, we're big fans of ZS and think they are doing the world a huge favor by getting folks off traditional VPN :)
A few areas of the world that are unusually low-lying and situated over permeable rock like limestone will be flooded. For the rest of the world, dikes are a well-understood technology, and quite cheap compared to sacrificing large land areas or moving cities. Even worst-case shortest-timeline estimates of sea level rise are not an existential crisis.

Great read. Couple thoughts:

1. Wonder what professions SWEs tend to dropout to?

2. The average earnings by degree chart is interesting. But software, being so winner takes all, probably has much higher variance than other industries. Would be interesting to see the comparisons at higher percentiles.

3. "The return to being a fast learner is higher in jobs with low rates of skill change because the learnings can compound over time instead of dwindle in relevance." The caveat being that there's a high skill bar for those other jobs. My hunch is that lots of professions (outside of ones that need years of schooling like med) actually don't have that high of a skill bar, just a matter of pedigree/experience/networking/playing politics.
Y’all need to be learning to make better coffee.

Your coffee should taste great without any milk much less sugar.

Are you using freshly roasted beans, with a burr grinder, and grinding just before brewing?

Use a $15 gram scale from Amazon and a $5 melita pour over paper filter holder and paper filter.

1 part of coffee to 15 to 18 parts water.
So for a cup: 23 grams of coffee to 380 grams of water

The Chevrolet Performance eCrate Makes Electric Drivetrain Swaps Easier
Hey CEO of Twingate here, not sure if this is your point, but the reality is that with remote work, most folks have to leave their VPN on to access their work. If their VPN is on, all their traffic is going to your corp network - zoom calls, youtube, netflix, etc. Of course, users can manually turn it on/off but a huge pain if you're having to constantly babysit it when WFH.
He's such a moron that he's a Useful Idiot.
I've been doing a 16-20 hour fast since the lockdown and WFH, and to be honest I saw a significant decrease in my overall anxiety as a result. Anxiety I often offset with significant amounts of CBD (a $100/month expense).

And while there are drawbacks, I can't bench press 215lbs anymore, the overall benefits have been pretty significant that I will keep doing it.

My weight was pretty erratic, given the high stress load and super active lifestyle I could fluctuate 8lbs in a day. Now my weight has stabilized and my head is clearer.

I studied biology with an understanding of autophagy and I only ate once a day for nearly a decade now (2011), but I used to eat 3000+ calories in one sitting, but now I've decided to limit my overall caloric intake (1500-2000) and reduced it to a 8-4 hour window and saw even better results.

Also, as a former chef, I now savor my food way more and take the time to enjoy it more than when I tasted and ate all day and suffered from a sort of palate fatigue and made my gravitate to salty, greasy food late at night when I actually had an appetite.

Compared to not-eating and drinking? No.
Rising sea levels will wipe out a few cities here and there that are exceptionally low-lying and built over permeable rock like limestone that allows the rising sea to infiltrate the water table. By and large cities will build dikes, as the Dutch have been doing for centuries.
I would argue it's definitely not a fad (at least in the sense it's something that's been happening only very recently); people have been fasting for literally thousands of years, though mostly for religious reasons.

It has an aura of being a fad nowadays since some modern research has indicated it actually does have health benefits, which I think some people have been a bit too quick to pounce on.
I have read that cold brew coffee is less bitter.

What problem does that solve?

You're doubling the transfer size. Why not just encrypt with a random passcode?

I still don't see the point though. For discoverability/longevity you need seeders. If every transfer has a different hash, then that can't happen.
