That argument is a golden hammer. It can be used to render any point moot.

"People die in car crashes", "People don't have access or can't pay for healthcare", "Student debt is a massive problem", "Home ownership has become prohibitively expensive"

"Nothing good has happened because bad things still exists."

Sure, good has happened. But I'm pointing out that the "good" part shouldn't be prioritized as an absolute, nor used as an excuse to look away from the "bad things".

Read my comment again. I concluded with:

> "Market economy" only helps certain groups in certain circumstances. It's definitely not an equitable way of "helping people". On the contrary.

The first sentence literally acknowledges the "good part", the second sentence points out that this isn't an absolute and that glaring issues are facing humanity eye-to-eye.

Beyond that, I could intepret "nothing good has happened because bad things exist" as another way of you, for whatever reasons, just trying to outright hand wave the very real concerns I've put on the table.

In which case, I, for my part, am entirely unwilling to continue this discussion.

> dont eat too much.

It is very easy to diet yourself to malfunction. Contemporary debate about diet focuses almost exclusively on aesthetic. But equally or more important is that if you dont eat enough, you wont perform in work due to tiredness and difficulty to focus. You will loose attention while driving. You will have crappy mood, treating everyone around badly. You will build anemia or whatever and you wont be able to walk fast, do any activity that requires physical movement. Your calorie output will go super down, because you will be constantly tired.

> we didnt evolve to where we are by eating three square meals a day. we ate little and often starved in between while hunting and foraging. and likely had a lot of adrenaline coursing through our bodies.

First, obviously, those groups had males, females and children. Not everyone was hunting, because that is literally impossible. Second, the lifespan of those people was shorter then ours. They died younger, oftentimes from diseases that had to do with malnutrition of one kind or another.

We already fixed whole range of grave diseases that had to do with lack of nutrients in food.
SO doesn't have the content requirements of a modern Social Network: images, video, and streaming are huge factors. Especially with modern smartphone capabilities.
Sure, but the left leaning party that both exercises power and represents the left did use it. The left is responsible for that just as the right gets to own trump.
Perhaps space is infinite, but that doesn’t necessarily mean there is infinite matter.
Are you saying that people without power do not exist? Or are you saying that when someone does not have power, it is their fault? I am not sure you are saying either of these things, but I am finding it difficult to make any kind of charitable reading of this comment.

Positive thinking only gets you so far. When taken TOO FAR, positive thinking becomes a delusion. We with loving families can thoughtlessly & brutishly suggest to a friend that they “should definitely reconcile with their father”, because the idea of abusive parents is outside our experience.

Same applies to things like companies. I can easily tell people to “obtain power and fix problems” at work, but it is not necessarily possible. If we pretend that conflict does not exist, or can always be solved by the right actions, we’re just hurting people.
Moreover, a large part of re-engineering food is re-engineering food supply chains. 'Tasty' and 'cheap' generally implies 'fresh', and getting fresh food onto the tables of millions of households requires a change of mindset from both industry and consumer.
Buy Nothing Project rules are simple: Post anything you’d like to give away, lend, or share amongst neighbors. Ask for anything you’d like to receive for free or borrow. Keep it legal. No hate speech. No buying or selling, no trades or bartering, we’re strictly a gift economy.

I don't know if this is actually a novel idea in the US, but in my country every city has multiple "trade X", "buy/sell X", "free X" groups. Where X is the city name and people give away free stuff or sell it for a small price.

And this is on top of sites like our local eBay and thrift shops where you can give away or get stuff for (almost) free, too.

I'm having a hard time thinking what this 'project' actually does.

Seafood specifically can't be judged as some ideal one 200 years ago prior to oceans pollution. If you want to pick up seafood which is not heavily contaminated by heavy metals, various regional spills, factory drains, near deltas of biggest rivers in Asia/Africa etc. you will find out you just play russian roulette with your food. Mercury poisoning with ie tuna can be achieved relatively quickly depending on the brand. Pregnant women should probably avoid things like salmon & tuna completely, the benefits are far outweighted by the crap. Farmed sea fish are properly bad food.

Freshwater fish can be better but they are almost 100% farmed, and good luck trusting some farmer with what he feeds them, since infections in overpopulated ponds are very frequent. Fish meat reflects what its being fed, so crappy food makes previously healthy fish into more bacon one.

Also meat is not an uniform substance, cheap beef is most probably less healthy than lean bio free range turkey. Also depends on the cuts, pork has very lean and very fatty tissues in the same animal. And so on.

I'd say for the food the quantity, timing, being active every day for longer stretch, calm peaceful life and obviously not much poisons/addictions makes up more than rest. We have centenarians in the west too. At least that's the best effort, if one has crappy genes with high probability of cancer or heart attack before 50, there are sadly some limits these days. But one can and should still maximize their own potential.
This is not an inevitable outcome. As company's get bigger they often find that checks and balances and democratic norms will be necessary and effective. Command and control is really effective as some scales and breaks down at others. As Aristotle said, all forms of government have a good and corrupt form. Select the right form under the circumstances and strive to make it operate well.
Here's how I reduced cooking costs to an infimum: switched to carnivore diet, setup a sous vide system and eating as much as raw possible.
We're not paying per port, but adding more ports surely adds to the BOM, which influences to total price.

And I agree that adding one port doesn't make the device noticeably heavier. But I thought we were talking about adding multiple I/O ports, since that's what the article says and other comment are talking about adding multiple USB A and C ports, MagSave, an SD slot and even an hdmi port. Adding all those ports will increase the size of the MacBooks.

I'm not saying it's wrong to want to have more ports (I wouldn't buy a notebook with one port). I'm saying that it's strange to call people egotistical for wanting fewer ports while failing to see that adding ports has consequences other people might care about.
Yes it does sound right.

Not just fast food.

The size of dish here is very large.

I moved from Thailand and was surprised how big a Thai dish in US was.

There is some sort of default expectation that a dish needs to be large.

I'm sure that contributes to obesity to some degree.
> Ever since the pandemic started, 90% of our B2B SaaS platform customers (current and prospects) have asked "do you have a Teams app". Its sudden; it was not like this a year ago.

Interesting, because even though as a company we use teams, it's literally just a chat app for us. Most departments don't even use the "teams" part, all conversations happen 1:1 or in meetings.

I work in the IT dept, so technically we should be at the forefront of this, and yet I'm only in 2 channels and they're both silent 360 days a year. every couple months someone will ask a question in one, no one will answer and that it's until the next time.
Follow this advice and you'll increase your chances of growing older increases quite a lot, and you'll stay healthier in your older years as well.

There is only so far these things can take us though. A lot of (but still too little) research is being done on slowing down or maybe even reversing aging, which could increase our lifespan to 150 (or maybe even longer). Not only would we live longer, but we would stay healthier for longer as well.

I've noticed this in Berlin as well. There was the famous Free-your-stuff group which then spawned into different splinter groups, The last time I checked Sell-your-suff groups are trend du-jour, and people would repurpose the goods they found for free on FB/Ebay Kleinanzeigen and sell them.
Indeed. And preparation. You can't make a salad by microwaving it.
My process for onions:

* Cut both of the heads off.

* Peeling. I don't try to remove the dry peel, instead I just remove the whole outmost layer, comes off with a shallow cut then removing it. Yeah it's a bit of a waste, but often that first layer isn't in a great shape and you'd toss it anyway.

* Cut in half, place the halfs flat side down. Much easier to do the rest when it doesn't try to roll away from under you.

* Cut to slices without breaking the pack (i.e. keep it half-onion shaped). This is probably easier to do with a small knife than a large one.

* Cut the sliced packs orthogonally to previous cuts. Done, except if you want a tiny mush (in that case, use a bigger rounded edge knife, cut with a rolling movement so that the tip end of the blade keeps in contact with the board; same technique also works great for garlic).

As others have pointed out, you'll want a sharp knife (a knife sharpener is a good investment). Cut with sideways motion with a hint of downward pressure, instead of just trying to press down through the onion.

Edit: Forgot the first step.
They're using the coarser, signal strength based estimation.
That's why I love down-to-earth data oriented programming, and I cannot stand design patterns, OOP, abstraction etc.

I would rather iterate over several intermediate datasets, than going into some tedious other way.

A computer is a machine. Why go into abstraction if your project is not complex?

It seems developers believe that going into higher abstraction is like using analogies, they think it's like using a new form of language so that other developers might understand what they're doing.

Of course there is a minimum of code readability, reusability and maintainability, but in the end, a computer is best as looping linear data.

Why would I have to be a utilitarian to make that claim?

> because the Savage was the only discontent.

That's not accurate. Bernard was discontent as well. In fact a good chunk of the book is describing his discontent and inability to fit in, despite his status.

On top of that, he eventually goes to an island full of such discontent and intellectually curious spersons.

However, limited discontent does not equal dystopia, or a lack of utopia. People can be discontent in a utopia as long as it is stable (which it seems to be in BNW).
A lot of these articles ignore bodybuilders.

Bodybuilders are experts at loosing fat getting in to single digit body fat percentages consistently and methodically.

Most follow the same rough diet and manipulate calories in the same way, it’s kind of cookie cutter, do this you’ll loose fat.

Most of it is learnt over years of professional bodybuilders keeping meticulous diaries of every training session, every calorie eat, every small change made and every result seen.

Bodybuilders take it to the extreme to be the best, still I think if you are interested in loosing fat there’s a lot that can be learnt from bodybuilders without going to the extreme.
Just look up the Panopticon, tbh.
Changing your employer is more akin to emigrating in your feudal example. "Choosing a new king" - the way we do it in democracies - corresponds to voting for a new CEO. Some democratic/worker owned companies do that.
The right have been pushing this narrative that they are being unfairly treated by platforms such as YouTube for some time now (long before the capitol riot). I strongly encourage you to look deeper into this because it is not an accurate picture of what is really going on.

Any screen really.
I don't think this solves the problem from the article, since small businesses will still have to deal with getting mistakenly blocked by whatever the popular blockers are. With 40,000 new phishing sites per week, it's not an easy task. If the blockers are free (I imagine they'd have to be to get widespread adoption), who's going to review the false positives? Volunteers?

But also, it would leave the people most vulnerable to phishing unprotected, namely those not tech-savvy enough to install a phishing protection service. Most internet users don't even have ad-blockers.
Your characterization of the experiment is so wrong it's almost hard to know where to start.

I cannot honestly say if you didn't read the article and think that it is about the cost of context switching for software, or if you are saying that OOP forces the programmer to context-switch and so it decreases his productivity.

Calories are a unit of energy, not weight. Conflating the two is sloppy thinking.

Eat nothing but grass and you will die of starvation. Yet ruminants live on grass, and its energy content can be measured with a calorimeter. Thermodynamics are a poor mechanism for understanding biology.
Agreed that it goes both ways - just making the point that tourists tend to have a pretty warped idea of what the food traditions in the countries they go to are. My point of reference is how annoying it is when you try to go to an oden spot or something and your friend complains that they’re not eating wagyu steaks (which you’ve eaten every week for the last month for each friend visiting Japan pre-corona times), and therefore this meal is unhealthy because it lacks a huge amount of protein. I think a lot of people’s impressions of foreign food are a result of their own pickiness.

Specific to the American culinary tradition though I find it pretty wild that for most people I know back home, healthy = salad, there seems to be very little mainstream options besides that. Like you said, it is possible to be healthy; but the default American family meal these days is a far cry from that, even compared to a typical convenience store food eating lazy Japanese person.
> – Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited, 1958

I really love the way this man crafted his words in a series of evocative imagery that just jumps out at you as you read along. To date, I seriously cannot find a person with a better mastery of the English diction.

I've emulated a lot of his writing style in my own since I was 17 and the structure therein (syntactic format and punctuation) but I fail to come close to even 1/10 of his prose.

Some may call it a run-on sentence format, but all he is doing is elucidating a well thought out idea as best as possible in the written word.

On topic:

I've seen this interview countless times, and read his entire bibliography and most of his essays, there are still a few I still haven't gotten to. And his last point is actually very relevant as it was when it was written, perhaps more so now.

I recently watched a podcast between 2 comics, who argued if the rise of Q-anon and the actual mobilization of the disenfranchised rust belt male cohort was a result of the lack of sports on TV in the onset of COVID.The largest followers of these events and tailgate culture are these very same demographics. Thinking about it further it may also coincide that the lack of satisfaction in the presence, over saturation really, is what made them resort to alcoholism, opioid abuse and eventually overdose/suicide. Prior to this was the tea party movement, and that was quelled rather easily by contrast. There was often a snarky remark in so called Libertarian circles online in early Spring when most sports started in the US that went like: 'Well, the Revolution has been postponed for yet another year.'

It was enough to make you think and really made me think back to the Savage's inability to integrate in the Society in Brave New World where every need was supposedly satisfied. It may also explain why so many countries were so quick to re-introduce sports as soon as they could in direct disregard for the supposed severity of COVID: a necessary evil as it were. Football hooliganism around the World is a very effective strategy to create internal conflict and to distract those who would otherwise resort to violence against the State in most instances: often lower class, poor, working-class males.

The sport may differ but the comparison in tact is not without merit, and these things can be traced back to Rome (the US' only real analogue) with bread and circus being a commonly funded thing by the aristocracy to keep the plebs in line despite all the massive warfare, murder and corruption in just about every phase of the rise of the Roman Republic to the fall of the Roman Empire.

I asked if we were already in the early stages of Brave New World when an article about the sperm shortage was unable to meet the demand of single mothers wanting COVID babies?

It is with these things in mind that you begin to realize that the parallels are very stark if you care to analyze them.
Can anyone explain the significance of these numbers, and their changes?
The overwhelming majority of people don't live in the US. In Europe, you have access to free healthcare, unemployment and education. It's not a silver bullet, but it significantly reduced your vulnerability to eating shit from your current employer.
