Well, to give another point of view: I think it is pretty much understood, what is healthy and what is not and also what leads to weight loss and what doesn't.

The problem is that people don't stick with it.

I did the inverse - just stopped having lunch - and that works for me. I also don't feel hungry.

For me, lunch was usually some low quality food grabbed in a hurry, and so it was the easiest meal to cut out. But the main reason to cut lunch was that I always got sleepy mid afternoon, and falling asleep in meetings isn't really acceptable. Not having lunch makes my afternoons much more effective, which is great as I'm not really a morning person.
Exactly. And that's where I suspect the "not all calories are equal" thing comes from. I don't trust labels much, especially in my part of the world.
Correct me if I’m mistaken, but isn’t eMMC literally just an embedded SD card?
I'd find it surprising that they hide really big numbers.

They probably lower things but it's not high enough to make people want to leak pictures of dead bodies or weird trucks carrying boxes.

Or maybe they're really good at hiding their operations..
Those are still centralized, i.e. there is one host that belongs to some person or org that's the main upstream repo and which can be hit with a takedown reqeuest. Git itself can be used in a truly decentralized way by having the main repo on IPFS or the like, though.

Edit: Also your sibling posts have pointers to projects with real decentralization, such as ForgeFed.
Obviously the charger + vehicle ecosystem has to be able to handle the peak journey of the modal car buyer rather than the modal journey. That's the point of rapid charging though, you won't use it often but it ensures that for the rare long distance journey you are provided for. European drivers also tend to make several long driving trips a year for holidays in the summer and for skiing but I would expect that rapid charging (and some of the imminently coming generation are 350kW) will be required for that to work.
Seems like a strange approach. It's easier to just continuously benchmark performance and kill machines that don't perform as expected. It's very easy to automate.

The article also doesn't mention spot pricing and per-second billing. Being able to burst up to hundreds of machines in minutes is super nice. I did some back of the envelope calculations for some build servers and it came out favorably for $cloud providers. Having idle machines also cost money.

For a highly optimized and predictable work load I'm sure providers like OVH can provide better bang for bucks. But that also assumes you don't use any of the cost reduction methods that are available with $cloud, like using spot pricing for variable load and reserved capacity for base load.
Sadly it sufferes from "squished" ISO syndrome like so many keyboards and laptops nowadays. I had to spend a buttload of money in a P1 in order to get a Thinkpad without a squished ISO layour keyboard.
back when I was a stage tech I always carried a bunch of isolating transformers with me. Cost 5 bucks on ebay and save your ass when dealing with obscure loops.
So, I love all of the books you've mentioned.

However, I have ended up inheriting a pile of crappy code driving business value a bunch of times in my career (data science is much worse for this), so for me, Working Effectively was really really useful as it provided ways to deal with the craziness.

As soon as I finished WELC, I ordered refactoring, and devoured it - but it is less practical for my situations, where there are no tests and nobody sees why they would even be useful.

In terms of good and impactful reads, TDD is probably the most bang for my buck I've ever gotten, in that it's super short and very very good. Kent Beck is hilarious also, which definitely helps.
Thanks for posting this. Saved me a lot of local troubleshooting.
>simple RPi branded monitor with a Pi built in

Oh, I'd definitely be up for that!!
One of the issues with Google, is that it's a "one-stop shop." There's a lot more than just email. A Google account ties together Web services (like their various APIs and analytics), data storage, and also applications.

Some are "business-ending" serious, while others may be relatively frivolous and replaceable (like Calendar).

That said, some of the linkages can make "frivolous" services more important (like using Calendar to link business appointments, documents, and emails).

So, when a Google account gets nuked for a problem in one of the services, they all go into the toilet.
It's easy to overclock pi 4 (revison 1.2) to 1.8 GHz as well, so they are probably very similar.
What would be the inference time like on a modern smartphone?
Or how about the responsible engineers/testers/managers/whatevers setup proper testing infrastructure for the multi-million projects run by their huge international corporate? Feels like it's not a lot to ask for the most basic testing like checking when certs expire, setup automation to renew it and have fail-safes/error reporting in case the renewal fails.
Every project I've worked on at Google and Microsoft has used cloud CI services at least in part - travis, etc. My current team had a custom jenkins instance + agents we maintained and we've phased them out in favor of the cloud. It just scales better and the time our team spent maintaining agents can now be spent on writing code and fixing bugs (we do still have people who do work to integrate with the cloud CI services, but it's considerably less)
> I'm just not disciplined enough.

That is exactly the point.

Being disciplined is the only way to lose weight. All these magic techniques and whatnot are just shortcuts to cheat you into being more disciplined. And what works here is different for everyone.

Why is subtracting these two times in 1927 giving a strange result? (2011)
I lost 30 kg. Crucial components:

ZERO cheating. Not a single beer. Not a single extra bite. Managed this for 3 months, losing 15 kg. Then occasional cheating for 6 months, losing 0 kg... Then managed once more for 3 months, lost another 15 kg. This is the hard part, I managed by introducing the following habits:

Same "default" meal every day. Chicken with broccoli, day in day out. It's not the best nutrition advice, but not having to think what to buy and what to cook is a huge factor.

Drinking a lot of water. 3 litres a day. I'd basically put two 1.5 liter bottles of water on my desk and made sure to drink all of it. Simple, effective.

Mindset shift. Told myself "I don't eat sweets" and "I don't drink alcohol" - sounds stupid, but very efficient to have preprogrammed reaction when facing a temptation.

You need to wait 12-24 months before you can consider your diet a success.

A caloric deficit doesn't work long term, as over time your metabolism slows down to match the caloric intake.

"The key to long-lasting weight control is to control the main hormone responsible, which is insulin. Controlling insulin requires a change in our diet, which is composed of two factors — how high the insulin levels are after meals, and how long they persist. This boils down to two simple factors:

What we eat — which determines how high insulin spikes; and

When we eat — which determines how persistent insulin is."

I think the main reason they can afford pricing their services that high is because of peer pressure - probably itself the result of clever marketing, or that would be a really happy coincidence.

I've worked in many startups now, several of them where I was the first (and for a while, only) developer and had to decide on the infrastructure. Each time I was going with OVH, and each time the CEO was trying to push for moving to AWS instead, despite having no clue what the difference may be.

Their problem was that "startups are supposed to use AWS". They were having impostor syndrome. One would come to tell me every month or so how "all his friends use AWS, and they say it's very good". An other one was afraid what possible investors may say when he tells them we're not on AWS.

If people will pay overpriced services to be with the cool kids, why bother competing on price?
There are some caveats though - it seems that they have 1% of positive tests - but I cannot find any information if the try to confirm the positives with another test (PCR ideally). The specs on the test quotes 0.3% of false positives - this too close to that 1% of total positives.

No all GCSE so 14+ students. The issue is usually that they freeze or crash under "desktop use" all the time and people pull the power out and back in again to reset them. This flexes the HDMI and USB connectors which eventually break or the cables give out. During the reboot cycle is when the SD card gets borked, or randomly suddenly.

It's really a terrible computing experience compared to using a simple off the shelf windows box running python with full single-sign-on to GCPW. They don't crash and the cables are never yanked around because they are AIO boxes and the storage never goes wonky. Teachers prefer them because the first 30 minutes of a 80 minute slot isn't getting 30 raspberry pi's limping again.
Sure, there's no silver bullet and the author never claimed it's perfectly secure (is there such a thing?). But this is definitely an improvement - it clearly limits exposure.

The nice thing about fossil is that you could have the website / documentation as part of the repository, then simply clone the repository and run `fossil server` over and over to decentralize the entire network with the built-in http server. Some kind of solution that makes it _easy_ for people to decentralize makes it more likely that it will be decentralized when needed.
Please stop parroting this kind of misinformation.
>a country the size of Europe with a population of 25m

You must not have spent much time here. Most Australians live in a narrow band stretched along the south east coast. Victoria, which has just come out of a 4 month lockdown, has nearly 7m residents in about 240 thousand sq km. Slightly smaller, but on par with Sweden. Like Sweden, two thirds of the state is virtually empty. Though in Victoria, we have a much more dense urban centre. The rest of Australia is similar, very small, dense urban centre with vast tracks of unoccupied land.

Yes, we can compare these if we are careful about the similarities and differences. Our populated areas have similar densities as various population centres across Europe. Our cities have been cut off from regional areas, and our states closed off from each other, which seems like maybe a bigger deal than if European states closed off from each other.

Maybe nuance is hard when you have a point to make.
Good luck - that sounds a brilliant move.
It goes back a lot further than that. The moment we started tinning food and making long life carbohydrates the equation completely changed. They take so much less energy to digest than their counterparts but its even deeper. Have a read into the difference in flour making over the past century and how industrial processes and wheat variants have gone hand in hand to remove all the fiber from bread. We have been adjusting our food to increase calory density and reduce the cost of digestion for thousands of years but it really accelerated in the past 120.

A Kilo Calory is the energy extracted in burning it, our body doesn't burn fuel it chemically converts it into different substances, the processes are so different since one conserves mass and the other does not. It is a terrible measure given plant fibre burns well and produces lots of energy and hence has lots of calories but plant fibre generally goes right through us since we can't digest a lot of it. The entire thing is a bit rotten from a science point of view. Reducing how much we eat sort of works, for some people, changing to more natural foods works for others, changing to fats and protein exclusively for others etc etc. Few studies show the majority of people loosing fat long term. All this to me points to the fact we don't have this figured out at all yet.
The only thing you need to know to successfully lose weight is that you need to consume less calories than your body requires to maintain its current weight. That's it.

I’m afraid this is BS. It’s from the “how to make a million dollars and pay no taxes” school of self improvement. Sure, to lose weight you have to consume fewer calories than you need to maintain your current weight. Understanding that tautology is not the part that people find difficult.
So...

The news is that AWS is overpriced, and overpriced by quite a lot.

This is not news.
Instead of focussing on Google Talk we have at least 5 different Apps from Google pretty much doing the same thing.
How did I not know Lyn Margulis was Sagan's wife? I'm quite familiar with both of their work (Margulis also did groundbreaking with on our endorphin and dopamine systems, if I recall).

By the way, I don't think that's even close to the same thing. Every biologist and biochemist knows about Margulis, because of her work.
Even 16GB eMMC will do a lot for intended use cases and you can expand with your own.
I think it is dead wrong on almost all accounts. I don't think people are widely racists and the accusation wasn't even underhanded, it was very well perceived. That did cost a lot of votes. Especially since the democrats even wanted to penalize people for allegedly being racist. Like a monarch that went crazy. This is really bad overall advice in my opinion.

> that “moderate” voters don’t have moderate views, just ideologically inconsistent ones.

Anyone advocating ideologically consistent views should be eyed with suspicion.

Perhaps people are interested in how their situation can be improved instead of how their alleged opinions can be bettered. Some of those people hoped for a little less hubris, which was in vain if you read stuff like this.

Sorry, but it is really that bad and I wonder how these people became sociologists in the first place.

To suggest that you can only win an election while appealing to racist white people is so far removed from reality...
> it's a bit like arguing that "the range of text editor customization is simply too wide for there to be fully-canned solutions for everything."

I was under the impression most non-awful SD cards had some sort of wear-leveling these days but there's no standard for it so they don't advertise it on the front like SSDs. I couldn't really find any proof either-way about this, just a few instances of people looking into it:

2. All Android phones setup to send photos to a shared family@google account so no one needs to 'send me those pictures from Anon's birthday' - it's all getting sent into the same account.

I do some form of intermittent fasting too, I only eat between 12h and 19h, but that's mostly to make sure that my meals still feel substantial enough
Indeed, together with "deleted production database" it's a rite of passage, which is fine. Problem becomes when same issues pop up over and over again (looking at you Microsoft, re ssl renewals) and nothing is seemingly done to prevent it in the future.
Tests can have bugs too.
What you call myopia I call seeing the bigger picture. Offer some cameramen the tech salary for a tech job (pretend the qualifications are there) and see if most flat out refuse because you're right and they have a good salary and union, or would hypothetically accept it because I'm right and people would go for a higher salary as long as the job isn't an extreme example of unsatisfying work.
Yes, but having a complete copy of all my projects in a matching self-hosted environment mitigates a huge amount of risk because it would still be there if I got banned from GitLab.com. I could still use the workflow and tooling I'm used to. Contrast that with GitHub where losing your account means losing the workflow and tooling you depend on.

I'm not talking about trying to re-host a controversial project though. I'm more interested in the risk to the average small developer where getting banned would ruin your life, but wouldn't make the news.
RPi do name the connector in the CM4 datasheet: https://datasheets.raspberrypi.org/cm4/cm4-datasheet.pdf

You can buy the connector here: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/products/1362374/?grossPrice=...

I agree with you though. RPi appeals to people with a wide range of skills. There are lots of programmers who want to use Pi to get more electronics knowledge, and RPi foundation could make that a bit easier for those people.

(EDIT: I don't understand why parent has been downvoted. A lot of similar devices do use newer more specialised connectors and it can be hard to work out who makes and supplies the connectors.)
with fossil you can use the built-in http server to quickly clone a repo, then just do `fossil server` to run a new host. Easy to decentralize the interface as well as the code.

I don't know why you're downvoted.

This is exactly how it's done in many places. A 10yr old computer is perfectly fine for this, maybe even older. Yes it might not play all youtube videos, but it works.

I live in Berlin and there it works because every store has a security and you will not be able to enter without mask.

Wouldn't the lack of means to contact all of your users, immediately and directly, create other compliance challenges? You would be unable to notify users of a data breech until their next login; former users might be left permanently in the dark. Similarly, being unable to push legally mandated notice of policy updates could be an impossible challenge. I can see how this proposed scheme could work day to day, but you would likely be well served to retain un-hashed emails in cold storage.
As far as I am concerned, I consider SD cards the equivalent of a floppy disk. The equivalent of a hard drive would then be a CF card (unfortunately much less common than SD cards these days). Or of course any USB drive if we give up on the card format/connection style.
