No. I mean literally everyone. You say you're feeling bad on a normal conversation and people immediately link it to your weight.

This taboo doesn't exist. People keep saying it does. But, as an obese person, it absolutely doesn't.
One counter example can be diabetes. Healthy insulin usage often causes weight gain, and withholding it the opposite. It’s a human growth hormone. So it’s entirely possible that one could mistake a thin person suffering from diabulemia for being healthy, and an “overweight” diabetic as unhealthy.

You’re probably paying more for the same weight or volume comprised of ingredients more expensive than sugar.
meh, I think this rant is a little dated. The FDA recently started requiring an "added sugars" line item on nutrition labels, which is a step in the right direction. In my city there's now a tax on sugary drinks. People have never had more options for what to eat and drink, however we (Americans) don't live in a nanny state, thankfully, and some people will make choices that you consider unwise.

To your last point, I live in the US and have a healthy diet and lifestyle and waistline. So don't be so quick to blame your environment.
>I've found that in USA, the society in general wants to meddle with people's business.

Get away from the wealthy areas on the coasts and "noneya business" quickly becomes the societal norm.

Only places rich and population dense do the police have the spare shits to give about what other people are doing.
Just don't go to fast food restaurants. Just don't. That's the advice. How much more clear do you want it to be?
I used to drink Dr Pepper 10 instead of regular, it was almost identical, how existing full sugar soda is considered normal blows my mind . Would you drink a cup of coffee with 10+ sugars? Alas it is very difficult to find now.
It's yet another thin person thinking they've discovered the magic to life.

It's always this dismissiveness of real issues that has led to obesity becoming such a massive national and international crisis.
I'd like to agree, but when this was a major magazine front page this month, I don't think I can.https://i.imgur.com/0kQQMcS.png

I personally know too many people who believe this shit. You can't say anything about it though or you're called scum and toxic. That too is healthy to them.
I know you’re being facetious but on top of the marketing appeal: Less sugar means more tomato?

> For many obese people telling them to just do more sport and eat proper is like telling a depressed person to just stand up in the morning and go out or a person with social anxiety to just leave the house. I.e. impolite, discriminatory, mean and far of reality.

Usually i disagree with these types of lists, but this one seems pretty spot on.

My only quible would be that only code quality static analysis is useful. Security static analysis on the other hand (e.g. taint analysis to find security bugs like XSS) is pretty overrated most of the time unless you work really hard to make it fit in your context.

I also think linting rules are important, not for what they actually do, but just to get everyone to stfu about variations in code style that dont matter and arguing about more important things.
I don’t think anybody really believed such thing except a loud minority, mainly thanks to social networks and journalists wanting to gain eyeballs with provocative headlines so people get mad at absurd stuff and come back for more.

The formula worked and keeps working very well.

If you're affording to eat out at fast food restaurants, you're probably not as working class as you think you are.
What is the reason
Different than what?

And how different can it be?
If you can, commit wholely to a parsing formatter and plug it into your CI pipeline. I've come to realise over the years that its not style I care about per-se, but consistency. With a parsing formatter and an opinionated linter, you're pretty much covered automatically across all development and developers.
It’s not hard to eat healthy at all. People are just nutritionally illiterate, and that makes it difficult for them to build proper meals.

The typical person has no idea how big a meal should be to obtain the right quantities of nutrients, because they’ve never bothered to weigh their food. They also have no idea what their daily macro nutrient goals should be.
Simply because light aircraft represent a really tiny proportion of global emissions.

And for "random Joe who wants to dick about in the sky", chances are that he is the one who is flying your airliner. Flying light aircraft is actually a really important part of what will eventually make good commercial pilots. There is a lot to say about that but the idea is that letting people dick about in the sky is not without merit.

Of course, it doesn't mean things shouldn't change, and I sincerely think 100LL has been a problem for way too long.

Problem is: change in aviation is really slow. Regulators are very conservative, every modification requires tons of paperwork, inspections and approval. Also, light aircraft tend to last long, they are actually simple, robust, and easy to repair machines, and many 50+ year old planes are still flying.

As for "all new training aircraft in Europe". I fly in France and I never saw a diesel plane. I know they exist, I just never saw one. On the other hand, I saw many Robin DR-400s with good old Lycoming engines running 100LL. In fact, in small airfields, when there is fuel, it is usually only 100LL. Maybe you can find diesel planes in larger airports where they stock jet fuel and have high turnover flight schools. I don't fly there.

And BTW, I a fly a Tecnam P92 with a Rotax 912 engine. It runs on unleaded gas, same as my car. But it is in the ultralight class, a much less restrictive category regarding regulations, and as a result, usually a bit more "modern" (if you can call a carburetor-based engine that...).
Why Covid-19 is more deadly in people with obesity–even if they’re young
One reason for this is that corn subsidies have created an excess supply of corn-based food derivatives (e.g. corn syrup) for years, driving down costs and creating an incentive to use cheap corn-based ingredients across the entire food supply.
Sneakers do age in my case. The sole plastic turns brittle over time. I’ve noticed that orange rubber seems to degrade the quickest. Not sure if that is due to the color or what. Doesn’t help I love on the equator of course.
You are correct that QE printed money while keeping inflation in check by using financial institutions as conduits of the new money. The new money mostly ended up inflating assets which aren't necessary to survive. (Rents inflated some, but house prices more.)

However the recent stimulus payments have been more like direct payments to people. We are already seeing this shift from asset inflation to staples inflation, but yes when SS exhausts its savings the Fed will top up the difference with new money and we will see monetary inflation of staples.
OK, I looked it up, and the GPS system is a different and simpler from what I thought I heard.

In the end the math is indeed similar, but how it gets there is quite different.

For one thing, each satellite carries an atomic clock to make things work. And the receiver locates itself by listening to signals, while triangulation is several receivers working together to locate a transmitter.

There would have to a perfect storm of events that stains the US as unstable. A Pandemic or mortgage crisis is not enough.

We’d need devastated cities, war on our soil, or a string of insane natural disasters (Yellowstone erupting).

The only other realistic event? China brings a billion people into mostly lower middle class, and dwarfs the notion of American consumerism through sheer scale.
It seems like you made a choice that lowers your life standard. If you want lots of money while living healthy, move to Switzerland. But of course there are many other options.
I agree fast food can be healthy. When you meal prep it ahead of time and throw it in the microwave straight from your lunchbox.
>I don't mean to be snarky, but evidently you're not nearly as comfortable working in C++ as you are working in Python. Your interpretation of this is that you have gained sufficient experience with both languages to know that the problem is with the language and more experience won't help, but what makes you so confident about this?

Give it a year of experience on the job with C++17 and 4 years of C++ at school with C++98. In school I mostly did programing under windows and the Visual Studio IDE, and now it's linux with cmake (another nightmare unique to C++).

This is versus 10 years of experience with python and JavaScript. I would say based off of this experience in general python is a better language in everyway if you discount implementation details. (Almost) Everyone would rather work with the current versions of (typed) python and C++ still only exists because of legacy code and performance critical applications like OS's and games.

That's not to deride C++, performance is very very important . However let's say by some black magic that python performance becomes on par with C++... You'd definitely see a huge paradigm shift in the industry. Huge Performance issues imo is the only thing keeping python from completely taking over.

>But where the high level programmer is concerned about leaky abstractions, the low level programmer is often concerned about intransparent abstractions — that in some languages, it's hard to develop a reliable intuition how much time and memory a particular line of code will take. That's an equally valid view, and if that's your primary perspective, you might be more comfortable in low level programming.

I'm finding that the former view is what most people in general share. It's like worrying about paint pigments vs. Brush strokes. In general most of the population are painters that worry about the brush strokes, but you still need specialists who make the pigments.

>It's possible to write perfectly sound code in C++, but admittedly, it's also possible to punch holes in abstractions, and that possibility is often exploited.

It's not about exploitation. The knowledge needed to write sound C++ code is quite enormous and when a mistake is made and code is unsound C++ makes it very hard to find out what you did to create that unsound code.
Right; but this is my point. Either we expect GCC 4.9 to produce correct code, or we don't. "Mostly correct" is poison, and should be avoided whenever possible.

If we expect GCC 4.9 to produce correct code then patches should be backported to GCC 4.9. (I mean, we expect it to produce correct code, right??)

If we don't expect GCC 4.9 to produce correct code, why are some mainline distributions compiling their kernel with GCC 4.9? Why is the linux kernel accepting bug reports from people who have compiled the kernel with a known buggy version of GCC?

The article made the same point - the problem here is that people are running into a GCC bug that was fixed years ago. The two solutions are to either backport GCC bug fixes to gcc 4.9 consistently, or stop depending on gcc 4.9. The kernel devs + gcc authors should pick one. The ambiguity wastes everyone's time.

People who anthropomorphize the Earth and make strong ethical decisions about it are interesting characters. The more I study natural sciences the less I see Earth as metaphor for anything else. I guess that mindset helped create a lot his art (which is high quality) but I can't say I empathize or agree with any of his logic.
classic police work...always starts with contacting a person of interest and saying “your not a suspect, we just want you to come down and answer a few questions.” If you don’t, it’s suspicious and they will continuing investigating you as a person of interest. If you do, they will conclude you were suspiciously nervous and begin building by their case.

Now they show up to your house telling you they “pinged” your phone near a suspected crime “but your not a suspect, we just want to see the pictures on your phone”. Refuse to show them, and they already know you posted one or more (maybe subsequently deleted it) and maybe it’s obstruction of justice. Deny you have any, and it’s lying to law enforcement.

Not a wine drinker myself, but this is roughly what I was thinking when I read the title. My thought was it depends largely on how many friends you have over and whether there is good beer around to distract them.
Some times you might have done/said something bad according to the context of a particular culture or rules of a particular platform (and even inflicted some actual harm or danger on somebody this way) but have no idea what, even after re-reading the rules.

I have been banned from a couple of forums/groups and I really have no clue about what might be the reasons but I don't insist there were none.
This kind of elitist rhetoric is really not constructive. Implying somehow that WordPress developers aren't "talented" because they don't use your tech stack is incredibly ignorant.
Just because there is a free alternative doesn't mean that the paid option isn't a necessary business expense.

If I run a taxi service, most people would understand that having a car is necessary.

However, if I chose to buy a car, even though my brother will give me a brand new one for free that doesn't mean that my purchase ceases to be a "necessary business expense."

There aren't any?

He _implemented_ the block size limit, nothing forced him to. Had he wanted it to change automatically he could have coded it that way. Instead, he tended to describe the design as being mostly set in stone. When someone tried to remove the limit he urgently yelled at them to stop (and stated if it were ever needed it could be phased in). I'm sure that his, like everyone elses, understanding of the requirements evolved over time too.

Meanwhile, scaling Bitcoin via layers was endorsed explicitly by essentially every technical voice in the space for years until some got wrapped up with scammers. Satoshi even built specific affordances for payment channels directly into the transaction format, and was the first person to describe their use.

in literal face-to-face conversation probably. But beauty ideals are communicated to you on every bill board. In the US probably more so than in many other countries.

Why do you think there's a billion dollars weight loss market? If obesity was actually normalised, there'd probably more obese news anchors.
Since most people are average, there is an average "healthy weight" target. Of course individually, it's really about the ratio of lean mass to fat.
Is that because WordPress is simple, though? There are similar CMSes you can use with e.g. Gatsby. They’re just a glorified build systems, after all — there’s nothing inherently complex about the content management experience. And on the flip side, it’s possible to load up WordPress with enough plugins that it becomes a nightmare to use.

I think we see people choose WordPress because it’s familiar, popular, battle-tested and has a big community with a lot of plugins. It’s a good choice for a lot of people. But that doesn’t mean people picking other options are just taken in by the hype.
This was the first Linux I ever used. I still have the official MkLinux book somewhere at my parents house. Great memories!

I used KDE and it was rock solid and worked well. I think I had it on my beige G3. The HD eventually died and was replaced with one sending me back to MacOS when repaired.

It’s odd that I turned out to be a huge gnome fan in my later years. I can’t stand KDE now.
unfortunately I can't get the full text of the cited study but it sounds like baloney to me based on the numbers. TDF cyclists live to 81 vs 73 for the general population. But to be a tdf cyclist you have to first live to (and be healthy in) your 20s. What is the life expectancy of a normal citizen who is in their 20s and healthy? Surely more than the "general population", which includes infant deaths, people with degenerative conditions, etc.

Check out this slide. Shows a big step change in health at every increase in weight level, regardless of activity: https://academic.oup.com/view-large/figure/225496940/zwaa151...

The title seems accurate. If you’re overweight and active, you’re less healthy than normal weight and sedentary, on average. Most people would find this surprising.

The title doesn’t mention activity, so I would not say it gives the impression that “being active is pointless”.
I would also be worried about systems like Cirrus’ VisionJet Safe Return, that turn the aircraft into an autonomous vehicle if a passenger activates the system due to an incapacitated pilot, as GPS is required for its automated path planning to autonomously return to an airport and land.

I haven’t investigated, but I would be curious how such a system responds when GPS is degraded or unavailable.
I dislike sacrificing purity, but I am capable of doing it.

Most software is a hogpile of sh*t destined to rot. It simply won't last. Those sections that do (if it never has to be touched, it also didn't last) are usually subpar. Especially with accumulating "ship ship ship" modes, costs, and competing via speed, it'll only get worse.

Most time spent cleaning up code and improving architecture is time wasted. The startup will fail, the startup will get bought and shutdown, the project will get scrapped, the service will no longer be used, etc. What little survives will be in a state of constant turnover, one that leads to the same junk.

Any optimizations/streamlining/elegance would be to address near-term usability issues. That is, the code is unwieldy to adjust each day and so needs to be reworked. Otherwise, it's wasted effort. Further, if it will linger, then would be the time to clean and file away. On the other hand, companies may still fear refactoring at that time as it risks introducing bugs.

Most code sections that linger are not foreseen as being worthy. By then, it's too late. Other sections never matter, as they end up untouched.
I'm not asking this to be snarky, but by what metric would you decide something was the best technical option?
There is the CPI, but it does not represent all prices. House prices and stock went up a lot, in many cases to irrational levels. The young people without a house feel the pain. They will inherit the national debt as well. Now the commodity prices steadily increase. Add to it increasing wages and more expensive imports and we will see rising costs of production and in consequence the CPI.
AFAIK, cell towers don't even calculate phone position beyond what's needed to determine which tower should handle it.

Maybe there is an element of triangulation in that, but it's far less precise and ambitious than GPS.

There's nothing wrong with snacking in itself. Arguably, it's better than three or so heavier meals. There's nothing wrong with fast food either, if we encompass, say, a healthy sandwich or salad from Subway, Chipotle, or Panera in it.

These attitudes purely stem from the way these are dominantly present in our society.
yeah, but then again it's probably more deleterious to your health to try to survive in the nfl without juicing so can you blame them?
True, usually the bottles are smaller though. But I'm not sure of this.
What do you think the advice should be?

Snacks and fast food are harmful. So don't do them. The same way we say cigarettes are harmful and tell people to avoid them.

I don't know how else to dress it up? What are you expecting? The advice is 'don't do it'. Seems hard to pretend it's anything else?

Thanks for the clarifying question, instead of an attack. I mean that anything you say that is publicly accessible can be used against you. Consider that you are charged with, I don't know, theft of a Coke. And you have a twitter account where you say you love Coke so much, but hate that its so expensive. This could very well be used against you, as it goes to a general motive. In the same way, HN discussions are wide ranging and could be used by a prosecutor in a similar way. And indeed, just posting here at all on a site with "hacker" in its title is inherently risky.
