I have the cellulite and stretch marks to prove it. So, when I heard approximately the Cinderella Solution to shed pounds, my preliminary thought become here we pass once more.
However, after attempting this application for one month and studying up all I may want to approximately it, I’m convinced it’s one-of-a-kind. Instead of aggressively restricting meals intake like most other diets, the Cinderella Solution specializes in flavor pairing to reset a slow metabolism.

Guitars with dogear P90’s don’t have any springs at all. They’re just screwed right to the body of the guitar. They were made that way because it was cheap, (and then of course as you say it became magic mojo later..)

You're not the intended user of Salesforce. The UIs and flows you use are mostly data entry funnels for the true user: management and executives. You didn't pay for the software; they did. "End-user" satisfaction is low on the product feature list.

C is very large. Nothing goes that fast normally. Not by orders of magnitude. So 2% is huge.

Our sun moves about the Milky Way at 828,000mph.

2% of the speed of light is around 13,000,000mph

That's the speed where relativistic effects become important.
nginx enables it by default. Another ingenious use of range request is zsync, it allows you to diff compressed binaries on a remote with local ones, so that you only have to download what has changed on an update. AppImage uses this
In my experience meeting rooms are always fully booked months in advance by the sort of people who have meetings for a living. Rather than having a constant flow of these people in and out of the pod, leave the meeting room outside the pod.

I like haroopad for editing markdown, especially the option to export styled html is nice.
Another nice editor (with a different scope, it's a note taking app) is Joplin.
You can even paste an image and it will get inserted into the markdown as file.

Can you advise a bank account? I have three, currently, and they all require a smartphone to use them.
My GitHub account now also requires a smartphone to log in for 2fa, which I was required to setup on my account (they do have SMS functionality, but not in my country).
More and more, a smartphone is simply inescapable as a form of identity. It sucks - but the backup form of identity is a phone number, which sucks even more.
Ooh, your twitter link reminded me of a twitter dark pattern. Twitter makes a distinction between a visitor who has never had an account, and a visitor who had an account but is currently logged out. I made an account in order to test their API, then logged out. From then until when I cleared cookies from twitter, every publicly visible post was denied access, prompting me to log in to view them.
Not really.

If you work in software people think it’s cool.

It maybe was low status 20 years ago, but since 2010 or so it’s changed.

Even in NYC the finance people prefer to talk about their app ideas rather than admit they work at a bank.

Compare that to someone who drives for Amazon - the cultural status is not the same.
The state of Cisco's MIB downloads kind of shows the state of things, it's just a very dusty, forgotten corner of their website that links directly to FTP. Part of me doesn't want to complain but browsers don't tend to have native FTP anymore so this becomes a minor pain, and certainly tells you that Cisco has just about forgotten about this.

In general no vendors seem to put much effort into their MIBs and that produces a lot of the frustration around these.
This might be true.

But this approach lets you actually work out what the optimal size is:

select sum(length(country_code) + length(long_name)) from wdi_country;

gives: 6307

Or on average:

select sum(length(country_code) + length(long_name))/count(*) from wdi_country;

gives: 23

(Note that it doesn't seem possible to use aggregation functions with a limit clause)
Apple is actually worse. On iOS I will regularly click a link within an app, explicitly select “Open in Chrome” from the list of options, and it opens in Safari. Never seen anything that egregious from Microsoft.
I believe the idea is that in a landfill those products will release CO2 and methane, whereas when composting they only release CO2. Methane is a more potent greenhouse gas, so that's another benefit to composting.

We wrote about this in Orbital Index recently (https://orbitalindex.com) and so I did some background research: Loeb's paper [1], mentioned in the article, found that hypervelocity stars accelerated by massive black hole binaries could hypothetically reach as much as *half the speed of light*. This is not something you want to be anywhere near.

Relatedly, Chinese astronomers recently published research on 591 high-velocity stars in our galaxy [2, 3], and 43 of these were hypervelocity stars, moving at relativistic speeds and destined to eventually escape the Milky Way entirely. They used China's LAMOST optical telescope and ESA's Gaia and doubled the number of known high-velocity stars. Apparently this is useful for measuring the mass of the Milky Way.

You can clean them. It's part of expected maintenance like changing your car's oil. This is basically true of all appliances. This is approximately saying who even keeps pants for a 2 years after I wear them a few times they are all dirty.
Well, every cosmic ray makes you hypervelocity too I guess.

But to be meaningful you want to talk about speed relative to your local galactic frame or some such. Most of the mass around us is moving relatively slowly to one another. That makes these fast stars an anomoly. And it means their (relative) effect is going to be interesting.
That is super interesting! How was this discovered?
Well for those reasons and more, every consumer hardware is about design for manufacturability these days. If you cant get the manufacturing right, scaling doesn't happen. Redesign will be costly or impossible without having those design methodologies front and center at the start. If your design is only possible with CNC, then say goodbye to the larger market.

From my layman's reading (start from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shingles#Epidemiology), I think the chickenpox vaccine is potentially somewhat the inverse of vendor lock-in: that giving the vaccine to children decreases the possibility of shingles complications later for them, while studies potentially show an increase in the prevalence of complications among unvaccinated older folks, thus making it relatively worse to not vaccinate for it, as you get older, and as others opt into it. Since there's also multiple shingles vaccines now, this sounds to me more like a typical network effect from vaccination?

To make up an unrelated tech example of that, my impression was this would be like picking a Blackberry phone, while all your friends have Windows phones. You weren't forced to pick a Blackberry by vendor lock-in, but you may miss out on being in some social circles. Changing that group dynamic would require everyone to switch, not just on a case-by-case basis. But in this example though, the Window's phones (aka vaccination) have strictly more features than the Blackberry (aka kills you less often), so if you can afford to (aka you have an average immune system), it would be more logical to get a new phone yourself and join the network, than to ask all of your friends to get new phones.

A similar analogy from MacIntyre's After Virtue is also apt:

"Imagine that the natural sciences were to suffer the effects of a catastrophe. A series of environmental disasters are blamed by the general public on the scientists. Widespread riots occur, laboratories are burnt down, physicists are lynched, books and instruments are destroyed. ...Later still there is a reaction against this destructive movement and enlightened people seek to revive science, although they have largely forgotten what it was. But all that they possess are fragments: a knowledge of experiments detached from any knowledge of the theoretical context which gave them significance; parts of theories unrelated either to the other bits and pieces of theory which they possess or to experiment; instruments whose use has been forgotten; half chapters from books, single pages from articles, not always fully legible because torn and charred. Nonetheless all these fragments are reembodied in a set of practices which go under the revived name of physics, chemistry and biology. Adults argue with each other about the respective merits of relativity theory, evolution theory and phlogiston theory, although they possess only a very partial knowledge of each...

In such a culture men would use expressions such as 'neutrino', 'mass', 'specific gravity', 'atomic weight' in systematic and often interrelated ways which would resemble in lesser or greater degrees the ways in which such expressions had been used in earlier times before scientific knowledge had been so largely lost. But many of the beliefs presupposed by the use of these expressions would have been lost and there would appear to be an element of arbitrariness and even of choice in their application...What would appear to be rival and competing premises for which no further
argumentation could be given would abound. Subjectivist theories of science would appear and would be criticised by those who held that the notion of truth embodied in what they took to be science was incompatible with subjectivism."

That's right. From their perspective, a hypervelocity galaxy is moving past them.

Also (at least on iOS), content blockers don't work in the in-app browsers that FB uses. It's coded differently than a SafariWebView (which _does_ get the content blockers). Being an ad company, it makes sense that they don't want users doing that.

It does matter though.. you can tell that a strat is a strat whether it has humbuckers or single coils, and you can tell that a les Paul is a les Paul with any pickups too. The body of a guitar does resonate; you can feel it vibrating against your body. Whereas as long as they’re new, clean strings I can’t hear much difference between brands. Clean vs dirty strings makes a huge difference though.

Hopefully one day companies like Apple will be forced to disclose documentation to the devices they sell so that consumers can make the full use of them and won't have to waste time on reverse engineering.
As I understand it Taiwan no longer makes any territorial claims on the mainland (Taiwan still claims ownership of nearby islets). Ball is in the CCP's court to invade before 2049, the centennial of the "peoples revolution". There is a strong symbolic desire to do so on the part of many in the CCP, but there is a smaller competing clique whose preference is to have a peaceful reunification (loaded term since many would say China was at no point really unified with formosa in recent centuries).
It doesn’t matter. Orgs should not play stupid games with candidates like this. Might as well have someone pretend they are having a seizure and see how they react and base hiring on their reaction.
Yes, they absolutely _are_ working on it.

I appreciate that `gap` is finally supported in the context of `flex`. I appreciate that WKWebView finally supports `getUserMedia`. The compatibility lines in the graphs from TFA are not totally flat, it's true.

And that is complicated by the fact that, all else being equal, people are generally willing to pay a lot more money for a house in pedestrian-friendly areas. I have friends in Houston, TX and it’s true even there.

If you had a free hand and could design a city with no-pedestrian auto sewer zones and no-FSD-vehicle pedestrian-friendly zones, you are basically going to create the stereotype that FSD is for poor people.
I mean... this sounds like the exact job that "git blame" is made for. Does your company not have some kind of version control?

> stars on GitHub - they're not an expression of appreciation for the project, they're just bookmarks

Project maintainers often don’t think so. I think they should be just bookmarks and not a measure of popularity, better to hide the number of stars. It’d hopefully make some maintainers more humble and helpful. Maybe!
They didn't choose activism because they are lazy or ideologues (although the industry may increasingly populated by lazy ideologues). The journalism industry chose activism because it sells better than objective journalism.

I could start an online paper about my local town and write purely objective stories. "Town council meeting today went as expected, complicated issue without clear solution continued unsolved". That probably won't get very many readers though. For one thing, relatively few people live in my town so few people will care. For another, the internet has conditioned people to get news for free, so the only way to monetize results in getting very little money (e.g. ads) from each reader, and, as just established, we'll have few readers because the town is small.

The revealed preference of news readers is to look at outrageous stuff and polemics. Get involved in a culture war about who did what why and what it means - that could attract millions of readers who you can slightly monetize to earn enough to get by. Do real journalism and few people will read it and they won't pay you won't for it... So...

I'm not saying this in a judgmental way. I don't pay for news either. I read what comes up on twitter, hackernews, linked to by friends, etc. I have an ad-blocker and I skip whatever content has a paywall that I can't bypass. I realize I'm part of the problem, but in a "tragedy of the commons" way. That is, the world would be better if everyone paid for and paid attention to primarily local and "hard-hitting" fair journalism, but there would be zero perceptible positive change if I switched to that model and perceptible negative costs for me for doing so.

It'll be interesting to see how much money companies actually saved by outsourcing chip manufacturing to Taiwan etc. I'm sure this pandemic has wiped away all of those gains, but it'll be interesting to see a retrospecctive of how much they would have actually saved if the pandemic hadn't hit. I'm guessing that the savings were miniscule, but enough to make or break various CxOs careers. Outsourcing is a lifehack that looks good on paper, and gets you career advancement for implementing it, and then you get to move on to a new company and leave the company to deal with the repercussions.

I'd emphasize Amazon shipping and last mile delivery is clearly anti-competitive "dumping" practice. Provides a moat against potential retail competition and is very much akin to Standard Oil controlling the rail roads to ship oil on. There is a reason why the USPS and neutral third party private shippers like UPS and FedEx should exist: to provide an universal infrastructure for mail order retailers, such as Amazon outside of AWS is. Amazon shipping and Prime are certainly not profit centers for the company but loss making dumping endeavours that provide an anti-competitive moat. It is neither realistic or socially desirable to expect every mail order retailer to roll its own last mile delivery so the inevitable intention of Amazon shipping to customer doors with its monopsony "DSPs" is market power and anti-competitive dominance not customer service or fair competition.

> people buy BTC as an alternative to gold

That's a reasonable premise, but the price of gold is flat YoY. Gold actually peaked in Aug. 2020. You'd think that at least some of the bitcoin interest would have gone to gold, but it hasn't. Maybe people are selling gold to buy bitcoin, but again, they don't act similarly. Bitcoin is a speculative asset that has so far gone to the moon. Gold has maintained its value for centuries. You buy them for different reasons.

> The question is still what would be actually good investments

Not bitcoin. It's a speculative asset. It might still 10x, but it has no fundamentals; it's entirely a bet on what other people will do with bitcoin. You could say buying AAPL is the same, but it makes $90B per year. If bitcoin goes to zero, you're out of luck. If AAPL goes to 0 for no apparent reason, you just found an asset that makes you $90B per year.
