To achieve effective end to end encryption, you need:

1. All cryptographic keys controlled by the users.

2. Some way to confirm you are actually connected to who you think you are connected to.

3. A way to confirm that the code you are running is not leaking keys/content.

I could not find a claim for any of these. But Telegard still claims end to end encryption as a feature. They could of just left things with how trustworthy they are and called it a day but they just had to check all the marketing boxes.
It won't trigger a read if you write a full 4kB page in both size and alignment but does for anything else. And then as you said, it stalls your write.

I debugged a Ceph issue being caused by this kind of behaviour except it wasn't actually mmap it was pwritev() but the call would stall and take a long time to return in that call that was expected to be async and go into the page cache.

It was caused by "unaligned" writes, e.g. non 4kB-sized-and-aligned writes which happens from Windows guests (using 512b alignment, at least by default) but not Linux guests (which use 4kB alignment, even if the disk is 4kB aligned)

It was made worse by Ceph behaviour that would write to that page, incur the penalty, immediately use madvise to tell the kernel I DONTNEED that anymore as an optimisation (because its a replica that is write-only, I don't need to read it again!), it got dropped, and a millisecond later wrote to it again and had to read it again (because that optimisation did not consider this case of unaligned writes needing to read)

Full story here:

It was at this point I understood memory alignment and why it might matter at a CPU level.
C still suffers from lack of real Unicode.

One of Java's other big wins was unicode out of the box. Granted it was two-byte unicode, but still... it was aware it was a thing.

I write Groovy with @CompileStatic. I do sigh when I have to "drop back" to Java. Much like Valgrind for C, IDEs helped out with Java's rough edges.
If you define many as like 2% maybe.
You haven't earned the right or respect for me to bother proving anything to you, since you're obviously a troll arguing in bad faith. None of your replies to anyone even bothered to address the points they raised to counter your frivolous arguments. You're as non-sensical and delusional as any of Trump's supporters. The Gish Gallop doesn't work here. Give it up, buddy.

Well you could argue that none of the countries which are considered communist were ever communist in reality.

Your separation of “capitalist” and “communist” seems to be closer to “east” and “west”. And the communist countries didn’t do well, even before they ended up being communist.

I think the whole understanding of political landscape is wrong way around: the truth is that poor countries tend to become communist because it’s much easier to sell this idea to a bunch of hungry people.

Also can you please give us examples of communist countries before the 20th century so that we could actually look back and see what is the difference between communism and capitalism on a longer time span than 80 years.
This is just how life turns out ime. Focus on more important things.
But you don't need to live in London anymore, due to work from home? So that's not a problem.
Most people just ramp up their lifestyle when they make more money.

I've been petty conservative about doing that and living below my means since the start of my career. In the beginning I was saving 80% of my income. That dropped over time as I got married and had to accept ramping up my expenses, but I've saved enough over the years to be about halfway to financial independence by my mid thirties. I strongly recommend intensely saving as the only fiscally responsible way to live. I don't think it's affected my happiness negatively at all. I couldn't buy everything I wanted, but having that safety net was well worth it in exchange.
The conclusion of the actual study doesn't exactly align with the title here. The title gives the impression being active is pointless which isn't true.

> “Fighting obesity and inactivity is equally important; it should be a joint battle. Weight loss should remain a primary target for health policies together with promoting active lifestyles.”

For a lot of people, increasing activity is something they can manage even when weight loss is a struggle. Obviously being skinny and active is the ideal, but being heavy and active is vastly better than being heavy and sedentary.
The parent comment was “I fail to see how in any world underweight is worse unless its a baby.”

Pretty decent chunk of the world is seniors these days.
I do, often, unfortunately. It gets poured down the drain.
> Designing scalable systems when you don't need to makes you a bad engineer.

These two bullet points resonate with me so much right now. I'm a consultant and a lot of my client absolutely insist on using DynamoDB for everything. I'm building an internal facing app that will have users numbering in the hundreds, maybe. The hoops we are jumping through to break this app up into "microservices" are absolutely astounding. Who needs joins? Who needs relational integrity? Who needs flexible query patterns? "It just has to scale"!
Use groovy with @CompileStatic. At least for your beans. Autogenerates the getter/setters.
By the way, what if somebody who wants to play a prank on you steals your phone and sends a porn picture or some hate speech to somebody in the Facebook messenger? Will this block you from Facebook for life? Will cops arrive and jail you for sexual harassment or whatever? This seems like something quite possible to happen e.g. at school.
The BMI is radically oversimplified. I don't think any professional is surprised that well built athletic people fall outside the target audience for that metric.

It really is just a ratio of weight to height, after all. Of course that's going to have its limitations.

I think their hearts are way more under stress - they lift a lot more weight..
No there is a movement to increase tolerance so fat people aren't treated like pariahs which is perfectly legitimate pursuit. What is the societal value of acting like a fat person is less valuable than you are? Like it or not it is pretty normal in the USA and a lot of western countries and people need to learn to be tolerant rather than feeling superior because they're at a healthier weight. It can hurt a person as much as racism, ageism, or any number of other improper and unfounded isms.
Yeah, for anyone who doesn’t know, everyone in the NFL is on HGH. Their tests are inadequate and they didn’t even test for it whatsoever until 2010.

Even better, if you know you’re going to be injured, you can just take PEDs and laugh right on through your suspension since you weren’t going to be playing anyway (see: Edelman, Branch, others).
Ah gotcha! :) sounds like we're in violent agreement.
I use Filmulator exclusively for about 98% of my photos, and it does everything from copying off the card and simultaneously backing up to saving a JPEG to disk.

But if I want to put a little extra effort in I may use RawTherapee for noise reduction (still working on that for Filmulator), Hugin for stitching, and GIMP for local adjustments such as fixing sensor dust, cloning out distractions, or dodging/burning.
This is in line with my own observations too.

I think non obese people really look down on people who are obese and have absolutely no idea what we put ourselves through to lose weight.

It's honestly disgusting and extremely damaging to mental health. You can see examples of this in the comment section here.
That seems akin to predicting the stock mocket... If you, as a lender, could predict before everyone else when the cliff was approaching, then you would stop lending sooner.

If everyone does that, then the cliff moves closer, and your algorithm loses all predictive power.
yeah it's surprising. But keep in mind they weigh at least twice a normal man, so they have about 4x the total fat of a healthy adult male (12% being close to what I consider ideal).
In this age where the trend is JAM stack, it is refreshing to see that something battle-tested like WordPress was chosen.

There's a reason WP has withstood the test of time. (WordPress developers being a dime a dozen also help make the case)
If the client implementation is public then there’s nothing stopping you from developing a server.
It's still overweight. For men the mid to high 10s is considered healthy.
There are very few overweight people past the age of 80. Anyone telling you otherwise is trying to sell you a bridge. Agenda pushers and idiots who parrot for free what others are selling them are responsible for the “body shaming” nonsense.

Cut back on the ice cream and hit the rack. Your body will thank you, even if your politically minded “friends” don’t.
Sometimes the amount of sugar is also completely unnecessary.

Heinz sells ketchup without added sugar and it tastes almost exactly the same as normal, or even slightly better, half the calories though.
> Political affiliations aside, I think we can all breathe a bit easier today knowing they didn’t choose Drupal.

Strongly disagree. Drupal is a great CMS and there's a reason the government uses it so extensively.
>Sure we all know (I think) that over- (or worse under-wight) is not health.

Anorexic is not healthy. Underweight within reason is. In fact the best way we currently know to live more is to eat much less...

Being a suspect does not mean you are guilty. Being arrested and charged does not mean you are guilty.

This whole line of "what could go wrong!?" starts from a much deeper sickness in the way Americans view the criminal justice system.

Don't eat fast food.
Calories, although the simplicity of the thermodynamics analogy seems simple are not the only factor at play here.

The basic reason is that your body can increase or decreased its energy expenditure drastically in response to increased or decrease consumption of calories.

I'm reading The Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung right now and he presents a very strong argument that the cause of obesity is insulin resistance.

In the book he cites both overfeeding studies where subjects were fed very large numbers of calories but did not gain weight, as well underfeeding studies where subjects ate only 500 calories a day but didn't lose weight.

After reading this I'm pretty damn convinced that the diet problems facing us are: highly refined carbohydrates, sugar and sugar substitutes, and alcohol (I haven't come across this in his work, but if you look at the stuff by Dr. Lustig you'll see sugar and alcohol are incredibly similar metabolically)

Think about this: for most of human history we did not count calories and yet we were not obese.

It's the highly processed western diet of breads, cakes, cereals, soda, etc that are the culprit.
You really shouldn't pick on anyone, live your life and don't be an asshole. That's a pretty good rule to live by as a first principal. It's pretty simple.
Soo many souls

> Why does EVERYTHING have sugar in it?

Taste, mainly, because all the fat has been removed.
Are there other constraints that might make DynamoDB a good fit? For example I made an app at a client. We could use RDS or we could use Dynamo. I went with Dynamo because it could fit our simple model. What’s more, it doesn’t get shut off nightly when the RDS systems do to save money. This means we can work work on it when people have to time shift due to events in the life like having to pick up the kids.
Is there a good alternative to Facebook where you actually are a customer and treated accordingly? I don't mind paying a reasonable subscription to access a social network if it really satisfies me.
Yeah my use case isn't really some sort of RDI farm, but just a way to access one of my existing machines which I also happen to use physically. For that use case RDP (without remotefx) works fine, but it doesn't look like setting up remotefx would be easy.
So why are we criticising 'overweight' people if we know it's a broken metric?
> Nobody really tells you that you are fat and it's time to drop some.

Literally everyone does. I don't know what world you live in. If you're obese its the ONLY thing you hear your doctor say. This has caused hundreds of missed diagnosis for serious issues because it's just "lose some weight".

Thanks. I'm trying. It's not working. And now you've missed an issue that's going to end up being life threatening for me.
Sugar substitutes like Monk Fruit Extract aren't as widely produced. (There are other sugar substitutes, but among all of them, Monk Fruit is king: it tastes most like sugar and it is the least likely to cause digestive issues). If they were more popular, perhaps efficiency at scale would drive down prices. Also, carbs tend to be more shelf-stable than proteins and fats (though, beef sticks and nuts are solid exceptions to this generalization). But a long shelf life can help decrease the cost-- which is the case with staple grains like wheat and rice.
That’s one of those things that I’ve been hearing about for a decade or longer, but literally only from people refuting it and apparently claiming it’s a mainstream view that desperately needs to be refuted.

The Fed faces exactly the opposite challenge to hyperinflation though (and there's no shortage of literature about zero lower bounds and liquidity traps, and no real surprise economies find themselves [back] in one)

But my point isn't that we know everything about inflation, it's that we know some spending is more likely to trigger it than others and so asking 'how much' the government can borrow before triggering hyperinflation is asking the wrong question, not least because expectations are known to have a large impact on inflation and so Goodhart's Law applies. And whether the current macroeconomic policy emphasis on stabilising inflation is excessive[1] or not, we definitely do know ways to get inflation down

[1]a more usual line of criticism than arguing economists don't study inflation enough!
As with every other generic slogan, it probably means different things to different people
"is highly correlated". Correlated, not caused by being underweight.

Studies on actual cause has shown the opposite (eating to the point of being underweight raising lifespan).
>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.

They need to cut calories and therefore must first be able to control their intake (counting calories). Then they can cut 400cals per day, If that does not work, cut 600-800cals. 200cal steps. This always works.
It’s hard to know without digging into your your library, which I haven’t. Also, I’m not a lawyer so I won’t try to give you a legal opinion.

However, you should probably take this one seriously.

Cycling does have a rich history of doping, but it also has a rich history of critical coverage of its doping.

Does anyone honestly think that international soccer, which is also a sport where athletes would richly benefit from both EPO and steroids, actually has less doping (at least as covered by the press) than cycling, when there is 10x-100x as much money?
Perhaps use hydrogen gas as the fuel, and the only thing you'll get from the reaction is a little bit of H2O, no fumes. And you can generate the hydrogen by electrolysis in an external device powered by a battery.
Yep. And also usually more expensive. I can't understand, I'm paying more for less.

I didn't belive this before but we need a sugar tax. We also need to have strict dietary guidelines on how much sugar is acceptable per gram of food.
I hope we again see the value of using systems like Wordpress for it’s simplicity in getting a blog/website setup and easily modify content.

Lately most of the modern marketing websites I see is built using gatsby and next.js. Having been talking to different content/marketing teams, they hate it so much because of the complexity it brings. Editing content? Sign in to this headless CRM app, want a form? Go sign in to another app. It might be a fun project for devs but the actual users if these systems will almost always have a hard time using it.
Typically BMI (mass/height^2), which hasn't changed.

Excluding the fact that average height has increased gradually over time.
That's an interesting perspective, but that's a bit more coarse grained than what I thought Software ICs would be, and, I suspect, more coarse grained than what Cox thought as well.
You can consider "hyperinflation" as a consensus that the government is lying about the value of its currency. How does a consensus develop that someone is lying? It's a complex process, and doesn't have a neatly aggregatable answer.

This is incidentally why Sargent considers the end of hyperinflation to be coincident with a regime change - a liar cannot become credible nearly as easily as he can be replaced.
This is a tiny fraction of the time that it takes to comment on PRs/CLs in perpetuity. The alternative is just to literally not care about formatting which if you are able to do more power to you, but I could not imagine working on such a team. To me it’s somewhat akin to saying that all that matters in writing is the ideas, not the formatting of a document.

Sort of riffing on this subject, since rikishi are nearly all Asian: Asians are more vulnerable to diabetes than people of other ethnicities. Health authorities have recommended screening Asians with a BMI above 23 for diabetes. BMI, of course, is purely a function of weight and height.

> limiting screening at BMI ≥25 kg/m2 would miss 36% of Asian Americans with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. In the same study, Araneta et al. (39) found that screening Asian Americans at a BMI cut point of ≥23.5 kg/m2 identified approximately 80% of those with undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. Among Japanese Americans, lowering the BMI screening cut point to ≥22.8 kg/m2 achieved 80% sensitivity.

Regarding the point about cheap and healthy fast food, wouldn’t it be awesome to have the convenience of something like that? No need to be so dismissive.
Wish I could. Lockdowns and all ya know? Not to mention the Rona kills fatties like me. :(
That reason might be familiarity. Or inertia. Or breadth of available resources to work with it, as you mentioned.

Or all of the above. And that might be a good enough reason, but to imply it's the best technical option warrants some skepticism.

I predict the following changes:

1) Typed languages are worse, and you want people with high levels of competence.

2) Java actually IS terrible. You win very little by designing for incompetent coworkers. Plan for competence, and hire appropriately. Small elite teams beat large incompetent teams every time. See #1.

3) Thinking through scalability upfront matters in many systems. Not all systems. Many systems.

4) SOLID is one way to do things, and not always the right one. OO isn't always the right one either.

5) YAGNI is more complex... you shouldn't build what you don't need yet, but you should architect for reasonable changes to requirements. Scope out all possible features early in the system design, create an architecture that supports them, and then implement the minimum viable system which can be easily incrementally refactored into that architecture.

6) There are ways to interview well. When you figure them out, you'll notice they give you a competitive advantage (while sharing them doesn't make the industry more efficient as a whole, and makes them less effective, so if you're smart, you'll keep them to yourself).

A democracy can only function if people believe that they have shared interests with the majority of the people in the society. A democracy that can deficit spend can only function if they believe not only that, but that they have shared interests with the majority of the future members of the society. I don’t think either assumption holds for the United States right now.
