Saving in a 401k, IRA, etc relies on government stability and willingness not to raid funds (see Poland) for many decades, which seems less likely with the possibility of crop failures.
Your post is simply nonsense. You've repeated the excuses of the aggressors without acknowledging that Germany and Japan enslaved and deliberately starved civilians on the scale of tens of millions.

The League of Nations told Japan to leave Manchuria long before WW2 started. There was no confusion on any side.

Just so HN readers understand what happened, Japan tried to build "New Tokyo" in inhabited areas of China - in other words, ethnic cleansing long before the term became well-known in the Balkans wars.

I suggest you re-study pre-WW2 and WW2 history and formulate a more solid argument.

It's declarative, so you can just send all the details via an API.

And yes, one could work around something non-declarative with enough effort.
The very large majority comes from people who settled way after the early colonists.

And those, who settled, came here looking for a better life, which should tell you about the conditions they were coming from.

And that is especially true for the many of the early colonists.

But the most important thing: we no longer live in the 1500-1600s which is a very important factor overlooked by everyone breathlessly talking about enduring hardships on Mars
The uncontrolled variable you don't mention in all this is the coffee beans themselves.

If you start out with mediocre beans, they'll tend to taste more or less the same as other mediocre beans, no matter how they're ground and brewed.

If you take good beans, grind them within a few days of roasting, and brew them within a few hours of grinding, you will start to notice a very significant difference in taste, regardless of brewing method.
rust, because it has cargo.
I think you're too hard on the older generations.

They lived in a time where kitchen appliances were a new thing, most work involved manual labour and lots of time. Getting used to hardship and not whining about it was their way of getting through it. Tired? Tough!

There is a balance to be had which I usually sort by "needs" and "wants". There aren't many needs and the rest is a luxury.
Thank you v much!

you can disagree with what they cover all you want, but facts don't care about your feelings.
I agree that ultimately your own subjective experience is the best measure of how your diet is working for you, surely studies like this are good information about what diet protocol might be interesting to try, especially since it can take a couple weeks to really feel the effects of a new diet.
I agree, this is very very preliminary. Out of curiosity I also thought I'd check who made the study, the main doctor is from Istanbul Turkey, and the other main author seems to be Muslim as well.

Now, that justifies why they were interested in studying this, since it's very similar to Ramadan, but it also could show a bit of a bias in hoping to find positive results.

I'd like to see further evidence before I change my IF routine to be from dawn to sunset and also limit drinking intake personally.
What you are asking is not really something that can be distilled into a checklist. Every product/startup has a different set of requirements, priorities, opportunities. What has worked for a company may be a recipe for disaster for another.

I remember reading on signal vs noise (basecamp blog) that they didn't hire their first server admin type employee till they've spent some months working on the servers themselves, and experiencing and learning the problem space.

What you need is experience, and it's not something that can be gained with checklist. If you don't already know what needs to be done from experience, you need to learn it by doing it. You will make mistakes, and hopefully won't repeat them again.

To lower the cost of this process, best thing you can do is find a mentor that has the knowledge that you seek. One that is willing to work with you to help you find solutions to your specific set of problems.
Plenty of recovered alcoholics can be around family that drinks (responsibly). Smokers who quit don't have to run away whenever someone lights up in front of them. I quit both (with longstanding addiction issues), and within a few weeks I was able to join family dinners where everyone else drinks and my brother smokes. NBD.

If people can endure that, then people can still be social at mealtimes and just get used to drinking some water or tea or whatever while they fast. Or coffee, mmmmm. They might feel a bit put out at first during lunch, but then again might enjoy the looks they get during dinner when they get to chow down with abandon. The big thing would be waiting until you're comfortable with the fasting so you're not making everyone around you uncomfortable with your body language (or worse, complaining or otherwise drawing attention to it).
The commissioners said it did not meet the standard for meaningful consent.

"An individual would not, while using a mall directory, reasonably expect their image to be captured and used to create a biometric representation of their face, which is sensitive personal information, or for that biometric information to be used to guess their approximate age and gender," they wrote.

Genuine question - if mall had deployed people whose job was to look at people to guess their gender, age and then jot it down in a notebook, then would it have been a problem?

If not, then why this is a problem? Assuming that the 'biometric representation' is discarded by the system after guessing the age and gender.
The Intercept's future doesn't look too promising... without Glenn Greenwald.
It was not. I don't think it would bog the RPi down to 2–3 requests per second though.
Anecdotally, I've taste tested various types of coffee using different brewing techniques (regular pour over, Chemex, French press, and espresso), and I can definitely tell the difference. For some specific examples: espresso was by far the most acidic and concentrated (which makes sense if you know how it works); the French press brought out the most bitterness; Chemex produced the least bitter and most consistent coffee regardless of the types of beans (for me this was a downside as I could barely taste the difference between beans, and all of them tasted more bland); and pour over was a nice middle ground (my favorite).

I admit that my test was not blind or scientific by any means, but I didn't know much about the brewing methods back then, so at least I wasn't swayed by any preconceived ideas of how they should taste. Also, it's entirely possible that most people would fail this test, but IME most people also don't particularly care how their coffee tastes. This is evidenced by the popularity of Starbucks, which trades flavor for consistency by over-roasting their coffee.
There is no claim. It’s all misdirection. All you have to do is cite some known figure supporting the mere possibility of some vague non-claim and it becomes the branch that ideologues desperately cling to. No one is overtly making any of the logical claims you posit above. Not Biden nor his family or campaign. They simply need to use buzzwords like Smear, Russia, and 50 high ranking officials, and that’s all the sheeple, especially those in the SV echo chamber, need to hear.
MacOS supports pf (search for OpenBSD pf) and ipfw firewalls, both of which can do stateful firewalls.

Be advised, the Mac tcp stack is mostly taken from 2001 FreeBSD, with MPTCP added later, maybe they put in path mtu probing changes from after the initial import, not sure. It was taken before the syncache and syncookies, and definitely doesn't have any of the other major scalability improvements FreeBSD has made over time in the last 20 years. Parts of the firewall code are broken (or were broken in past releases), and there's not really any body of internet knowledge about what parts actually work.

I guess that makes it a good system to play on, because if you try something and it doesn't work, it's a good idea to go spelunking through the code, because there's a good chance it's broken. OTOH, it'll be depressing to see how long it's been broken for, how long it's been fixed upstream, and how likely it is to be fixed in future mac os releases (probably never).

All that said, Apple's TCP stack does better on iOS than Android, because Apple enabled and tweaked path MTU probing, so if you're on a dumb network with MTU set too large and ICMP blocked, iOS send smaller packets pretty quickly and your connections will work, Android ships with probing disabled, so it just sends big packets that get dropped until the connection times out.
True the Earth is not flat in many different ways, and also, the parts are moving.

Edit: if you can put either of those extraordinary places in touch with me, that's fine also.
This remindes me of a museum in Munich - a museum I had never heard of, located in the central office of a company I had never heard of, and which I would have probably never seen but for the "Long Night of Museums": the Spinner GmbH vacuum tube museum (http://www.spinner-group.com/en/company/spinner-group/vacuum...), showcasing the extensive vacuum tube collection of the company's founder.
Unless you actually need to output human-readable numbers for some reason, the sensible approach when serializing floating point numbers is to just use hexfloats and skip the problematic "rendering" part altogether.
The problem with this, for too many people, is that they've never felt "good". They don't have a point of reference they could use to guide them to a better lifestyle

They only know the right-now and that's good enough for them.

This is something I've seen with my friends and family who have never been in good shape. They don't know that it's possible to go up 3 flights of stairs 2-3 steps at a time at a brisk pace and NOT be panting with exhaustion afterwards. They don't know that it's not normal to fart 24/7 and have constant heartburn, because that's all they've ever known.

It wasn't, it was stored in a third party database.

I don't think these notes would ever come close to "a biometric representation of their face" which can tell you with certainty someone was there or not (when, what time, who they were with).
The animation can be, um, overwhelming. The conversation is with Dr. Drew Pinsky (not a fan, but in this context he's spot on).

Tcp is a transport layer protocol on top of ip. So the tcp packet with stuff like sequence and port numbers in its header is encapsulated as the data part of an ip packet, which in turn is send via lower level packets like ethernet frames.
Now what happens when you add STM to these languages? You've just created an enormous footgun by creating another color of function (https://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2015/02/01/what-color-is-..., see also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8984648).

What this proposal misses is that reasoning about software transactional memory in functions all but demands being able to abort and retry code to make progress, and that therefore means having a high level separation between transactional code and IO code.

Suppose you had a banking application, you would like to use STM (as in the "ractor" example in this article) to move balances from one to another. In Haskell, you'd perform STM actions on those TVars (transactional vars) and use the default retry policy of STM to automatically construct an order of operations such that each operation appears to occur atomically. (STM doesn't impose a clock based ordering but I don't think it would be tremendously difficult to do so.)

If you don't use Haskell's "check" or "retry", you find that your code will abort and fail with near certainty. You can't perform lots of transactions on tvars and not, occasionally, read from a var another transaction is writing.

So you add "check" calls to verify your preconditions and postconditions such as balances cannot go negative, and you add "retry" calls to automatically retry transactions that fail because of concurrency.

Now imagine doing that in a modern Ruby codebase, or a modern JavaScript codebase. There's so much mutation that happens in these environments, can you guarantee within a Ruby function that it hasn't mutated another variable with ease? That it hasn't written to disk, made an API call, or changed some global state?

Haskell pioneered the use of STM. It's easier to reason about in Haskell because the world of the STM can be isolated from the world of effects due to the IO monad. It's easy to declare "this function is blue" and "this function is red" and the never the twain shall meet.

In any other language, all bets are off.
Why is it so hard to create a simple data table with 2 columns in Vega? Literally 0 examples in your documentation for this.
You haven't seen pain until you've had to deal with crappy embedded systems that output "decimal DMS" data - i.e. ones in which 126.5904 means 126° 59' 04, rather than 126° 35' 25.44" as you might expect. Plus, the crappy documentation doesn't bother to tell you what coordinate system they're using so you get to guess! I wish I'd known about the little calculator they have on this site - which guesses the coordinate system in use - back when I was doing that project. Would have saved me a lot of headaches.

The next pain point has got to be China's insane "GCJ-02" obfuscated coordinate system, as alluded to and linked on this site. I've had a lot of trouble getting basically anything GPS-related to spit out meaningful things while in that country (more accurately, matching basically anything up with maps while there). While it has been reverse-engineered, you always get to wonder whether the authorities are going to come after you for having GPS data that's too accurate...

Coordinate systems are hard. GIS stuff is hard. I'm glad this website exists. Even if it's hard for people to identify the problem, this site at least makes one aware of the problems in the first place.

This is such a nothing statement. How is that different from setting a price list on their website? They hope people will pay them doesn't mean they will
Yeah this seems like some low-level detail that should really be outsourced to whatever library / framework / server you are using.
I didn't get you. What do you mean "all the details" via an API? Do you mean the final output can be sent over an API?
Definitely this. When software silently thinks it knows what I wanted and silently does the wrong thing, sometimes you find out a long time later, and it ends up being very expensive, particularly when it’s to do with data analysis. I would always prefer an error.

I think this is a huge weakness of Pandas. I have to put “errors=raise” all over the place, although not many functions have that parameter.

I'd say this - while interesting - does not show a thing. It happens that a billion or so people do this every year, so any actual public health effect should be quite noticeable. Instead, "the highest percentage change in age-standardized BMI related deaths and disability-adjusted life-years occurred in Bangladesh" (that is mostly a Sunni country) - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5866840/#Sec3ti...

Or see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3263199/ - "The recorded high prevalence of the MS and its key cardiovascular risk factors (15-60%) among Middle East population mandates the need for a national and international prevention programs to combat obesity, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking and related comorbidities."

"Thirdly, there are practical reasons to oppose copyleft. Namely, when I publish source code, one of my main goals is for as many people as possible to use it, regardless of whether it's other individuals or giant corporations."

This seems to be possibly the most salient reason people who otherwise oppose copyright oppose copyleft. This is a conflict between people who are ideologically liberal who are attempting to engage in a kind of left politics. They display willingness to allow corporations and capitalism generally to exploit their work on their own terms without giving back. They generally accept the economic order.

On the other hand, if you are a committed anti-capitalist: who care? The corporations, the bosses, the exploiters. They should all perish from the earth anyway and we should feel absolutely free to use the system they constructed against them and for each other.

Our own individualistic tactics of not partaking in distasteful systems is idealistic and due to the power imbalance will not amount to much. Only tactics that force decisions and build dual-power communities can correct such a situation.

Bear in mind that if we decide to use copyleft as a tactic against corporate rule en mass, it is flawed as it is to use the power of the state against corporate interests which own the state. This is a severe limitation because if it becomes enough of a hindrance, the state will just pass something like a "national security" exception to copyleft and every defense contractor and company over a certain net worth will qualify.

Things aren't really that much different in Germany. Things have changed from big attacks to lots of small ones that don't get reported.

On 10-29 a 25yo woman was killed in Bremen.

On 10-28 a 21yo man was stabbed and almost killed in Hamburg.

On 10-27 a 19yo man was stabbed and almost killed in Leipzig.

On 10-26 a man was stabeed and almost killed in Berlin.

On 10-25 one man was killed and three were heavily injured in two different knife attacks in Brandenburg. Same day a 18yo was shot three times and almost killed in Kassel. Same day in cologne a 25yo man was stabbed and almost killed in cologne. Same day a 8yo (!) was held a knife to the throat. Same day in Stuttgart two men were heavily injured in a stabbing. Same day in Hamburg multiple people were injured by stabbings and 6 shots.

On 10-24 a 22yo was shot and killed in Hamburg.

On 10-23 a woman was almost killed in Lemgo.

These were just the last 7 days. It does not include indicidents with non life-threatening injuries, which were there multiple of (Besides the 8yo thing, that was included for the age).

Honestly why not go for proper fasting, 24 hours is absolutely nothing without any preparation and so it's basically 36 hours, you start Monday after dinner, then just don't eat through Tuesday (I have crisis usually around next dinner) and then just go sleep and when you wake up it's 36 hours. By my experience by then the body is used to ist and you can easily push it to 40 hours, didn't really try 48 hours, but I guess with some preparation also not that big deal.

It's pity can't really do it anymore, since I cook for whole family and need my brain working at full capacity, which is not big deal during first day of fasting, but on the 2nd one it would take its toll already, maybe doable during weekend.
