>which is hardly converted to DHA by the body

Hardly or just in small quantities?

With flaxseed oil, you could just consume more of it in order to offset the low ALA/DHA conversion rate. Or is there a downside to the idea?
You mind seems to be trapped in the employment binary where you're either a full-time W-2 employee or you're unemployed. With contracting and startups it isn't so simple. Contractors (especially ones working in boutique niches on scoped projects) might work for a month with much time between contracts. During that down time maybe they write blog posts or contribute to OSS or hang out with someone else prototyping some neat ideas that don't pan out (which might reasonably be called a startup after the fact) or just do literally nothing so as to recover from burnout, which is lethal to the contractor in a way it isn't to an employee. All of which feed into more people dropping into their inbox inquiring about their contracting availability. It isn't "lying" to say time spent not working on a paid contract is time spent in service of contracting.

> I'm not getting vaccinated because I think I had "Early Covid", which I define as a case of SARS-CoV-2 before there was a test to diagnose it.

There is a very high chance you can get Covid-19 again, hence why the vaccines are going to require boosters.

If you want a dangerous, man-made virus hanging out repeatedly in your vital organs, that's your choice. I'd much rather prime my immune system to handle it via a vaccine so I don't have to have it in my heart, lungs, kidneys, pancreas, etc.

> The simplest implementation of this trick was leaving shiny tin cans, or other enticing targets for snipers to zero their sights on at the front. Germans would leave cans on the parapet for snipers to shoot at. Due to the high contrast and easy visibility of these targets, they were attractive for naive snipers to use while adjusting their sights. A grave and often fatal error.

Wait so... they just put out tin cans and the enemy snipers would shoot them because their sights needed to be tuned? That doesn't feel like it makes any sense. For one, you can't shoot the can unless your sights are tuned, so I guess they're taking multiple shots? Was it really so hard to invent a sight that could be tuned without firing to give away your position?

>Gap year? No! I am merely doing independent consulting. Do I actually have any contracts? So many questions!

People aren't stupid. They'll have questions. And lies are extremely hard to keep straight in the long term. The sad fact of the matter is that you are not a person to them in the initial hiring process. You are a piece of paper. And unless you are some rock star 10x top level candidate with impressive credentials, they'll have a dozen other pieces of paper that look just as appealing and don't have those questions attached.
That's some pretty funny writing.
Have you ever accelerated into the back of a fire truck, which was stationary on the freeway, with bright flashing lights on it, in dry conditions, with ideal visibility and lighting, while travelling at a mere 31 miles per hour?

At the same time self-driving cars have no doubt avoided many an accident that a human driver would have failed to avoid.

I think we have to accept that the failure modes between self driving and human driving will look very different. Humans will get into all kinds of accidents that a self-driving cars trivially will avoid. At the same time self-driving cars will probably continue to crash into things most humans would have avoided. We're going to have to look at safety records in aggregate to come to any meaningful conclusions.

And all that being said many a human has accidentally plowed their car into random stationary and highly visible objects for all kinds of stupid reasons, so it's not like machines are the only ones.

You don't need to necessarily eat meat (a glass of milk has half the recommended daily intake of vitamin b12), but if you are not willing to eat any animal product, the only viable alternative is something like fortified plant based beverages or over-the-counter supplements, so that's my take, otherwise they would be suggesting a really poor diet for humans.
People tend to flip flop between the classical "wealthy people but not born into centuries old familial wealth on the top end and successful doctors, lawyers and financial professionals on the bottom end" definition and the "blue collar workers plus or minus a little" definition based on whichever is more convenient for the point they are trying to make that minute.

Basically the GP is using the former definition and the person you're replying to is using the latter definition.

Crap on the Marxists all you want but they do at least have a fairly unambiguous taxonomy for these distinctions.

Yes so I think we need to have the tooling around 3 major Infrastructure development and overall developer experience on Infrastructure and Application Deployment.

- Be able to Handle the conditional logic
- Support the runtime to setup environment values.
- Support runtime of any cloud service config in any cloud.
- Interface for the Observability stack in the same runtime.
- Rollback support for service and config.

The benefit of all that would be to be able to Unit, Integration test of the code , Static Analysis , Security scan , Vulnerability scan etc , that way we have a "real" prarallel and dynamic turing complete code for infrastructure.

Something around that experience is needed if we can get the community to support tooling around.

> You can take two views of humans.

Nothing in life is black or white. Life has many shades of gray (more than 50).

> Freedom means being able to make bad choices.

Yet here we are, where you're fined for drunk driving or for not wearing a seat belt.

* * *

There are no penalties for making bad choices that only affect <<you>>. But almost every choice you make, good or bad, affects someone else.

For an example of a very personal and selfish choice that actually impacts <<others>>, if you don't wear a seat belt and die, your family will greatly mourn your loss, but they might also not be able to make it without your financial support and have to get help from social services or from others, which others have to pay for. You'll probably turn a small accident into a big accident, and if you're not the only person in the car, you'll traumatize those with you for life (again, maybe needing help which others will pay for!) plus you're probably going to total the car (which the owner will have to pay for).

Humans aren't trees falling in a forest, trees that no one can hear falling.

Two things. One, the rules are already on the books, they just haven’t been enforced. Two, offense is down significantly across the league. MLB needs to do something to level the playing field or fans will lose interest. Pitching duels can be fun, but not every damn game, and that’s what we’ve gotten a lot of this season.

MLB currently has a big problem with balls in play. We’ve trended every year towards “three true outcomes” baseball (that’s when an at bat ends with a HR, strikeout, or walk). It’s an optimal winning strategy in a lot of cases. It’s also dull.
I'm getting tired of everything requiring you to "sign-in" for even cursory viewing of data. I have noticed some things bucking the trend like ordering online from a restaurant. But more often than not, things seem to require some kind of account they can mine for contacts.
While systems thinking did grow out of cybernetics (also Bertalanffy's general systems theory), both fields have diverged from control - cybernetics to epistemology, and systems thinking to influencing complex systems through leverage points (see https://donellameadows.org/archives/dancing-with-systems/ and https://donellameadows.org/archives/leverage-points-places-t...).

Cybernetics originated in engineering and mathematics so it makes sense that it would be concerned with control as we tend to explicitly limit and constrain complexity in order to control and predict our systems - ML being the first notable counter-example. Systems theory started out in biology and ecosystems so AFAIK it never held that complex systems could be either fully known (total knowledge of the state), or truly controlled.

I haven't taken a gap year myself but a good friend took a six month unpaid travel-leave period in the company we both used to work for. He had a great time. When he finished and got back into work he realised that his break very similar to a female employee taking maternity leave. As it happened, our company was quite good with maternity leave, and many of the women who took it resumed very successful careers. So, perhaps worth checking at your own place to see how maternity leave is handled.

He didn't notice any long term career effects although he had to re-establish himself somewhat with new people and projects that had appeared in his absence.

Key thing, when you quit, don't burn bridges. I took a year off, did some traveling after working at my job for 8 years. At the end of the year, I applied to a few jobs, but my old boss contacted me to rehire me. I went back as if I never left. I am in a different field, so you experience may vary, but if you are in a good team, your old boss is likely to rehire you instead of investing in someone they don't know and have to train.

Some people are better at absorbing new information, mapping it whatever they know about the situation, and responding. Or they are awesome bullshitters. I'm neither. What I learned to do was to review who was in an upcoming meeting, what the likely topics would be, and what my take was on them. This was in a F100 company where I'd be in meetings back to back for hours. So when the meeting would come up, I sort of had a mental picture of who the players were and what the topics would be, and it helped even if new information was being dumped on me at the last minute.

And the other thing I learned to do, the hard way, was to refuse to commit to any decisions made in a meeting until I'd gotten to review whatever new information had been provided and review how the decision would fit into other organizational or corporate decisions.

It sounds very bureaucratic, and it probably is, but I frequently found myself to be simultaneously the most junior person in the meeting and the person designated as the key decision maker.

It took me a long time to accept that it was ok to say "I don't know the answer to that question and I'm not going to make one up on the spot." It's incredibly important that if you do say that in response that you prioritize answering the question as soon as possible afterwards.

Maybe not this directly, but I expect more people quitting "megacorp" jobs, will lead to another big wave of "innovation" in tech in the next few years as people spin up small companies to 'scratch that itch' they've had for a while.

The solution here is meant to be expanded easily and to keep things at a low cost.

The “insane” prices were from NewRelic, using the Kubernetes integration and infrastructure monitoring. I am based in Brasil, so every price is “times 5” plus taxes.

Right now we have a small number of clusters, but it will be growing on a fast pace in the future. For us, monitoring the new clusters will come easy as deploying a couple of new prometheus PODs inside the new cluster, adding a couple lines to our deploy pipeline.

As for doing in house, since we have a complete private cloud solution, it makes sense for us, as mentioned by zzyzxd in another comment, Thanos is pretty straight forward and just works, it demands almost zero maintenance, we just keep an eye for storage consumption and new releases.
Somebody still needs to pay for it.
That seems like a decoy. Make people rely on it and then miss something else. Why couldn’t they just bite their tongue if you just need overriding stimulus?

Freenode is dying and the staff are actively killing it.
I met Donella Meadows in California once long ago, at an event called Hackers in the Santa Cruz mountains (along with a lot of other interesting people). I had no clue but she was obviously holding a combination of respect and a playful affection among a lot of the attendees. It was fun; recently I read the wikipedia page and found out about her tenure and whatnot on the East coast.
The thing is, most people will just stay, and the freak behind Freenode will have numbers to back up his claims, that his "community" is strong. Who knows how many of those users just keep running irssi in screen or have it configured on bouncer, checking it once a year when they need to ask question. Maybe over long time, the numbers will shift. But most people just don't care about the platform they chat through.
Lack of a dedicated home office, children/family members interrupting, noisy surroundings, bad setup, etc. I'd argue that "brain chemistry unsuited for WFH" qualifies as well.

Speaking as a lifelong addict (started with likely an addiction to breastfeeding), if you're anything like me from a mental predisposition standpoint, all you have to do is stay an addict! It's that simple. There's nothing wrong with addiction, and I would argue, it's likely a survival mechanism. The trick is, form "healthy" addictions, along with the vices, assuming you need to keep some vices kicking around to stay sane. It took me until I had kids and could watch them develop, to realize I've been an addict like everyone else in my family, my whole life. It happened to be addictions to things like playing basketball, doing martial arts, exercising, making music, learning UNIX and systems internals, raising and growing food, wood milling and working, growing and smoking weed, reading everything I could, etc. etc. etc. I've been flipping from one addiction to another since 1-2 years old, and learning all along the way, often with outstanding end products produced due to my obsessive nature. Embrace it, and learn when it's time to move on. It will take time, and flipping to a new addiction is always a bit anxiety-inducing (but so is learning anything new!).
Even modern day rifles need a handful of rounds to sight in. I assume due to the massive casualties suffered by both sides they were sending up troops to the trenches with little time to prepare.
Apple Hosts Today at Apple Sessions for Black Music Month
this is all above me and i'm not following it exactly.

it was my understanding the polyunsaturated fats (3s and 6s alike) were both prone to oxidation far more so than saturated or monosaturated fats and it was this reason alone why there's correlation between high PUFA consumption and prostate cancer

It was also my understanding, that this phenomenon is why astaxanthin an antioxidant found in certain algae and things that feed off that algae, such as krill, salmon, and to a small degree - shrimp, crab, and lobster, and noted for being more powerful than the antioxidants found in blueberries, green tea, and even CoQ10, as well as never flipping to a pro-oxidant, the way say.. VitC, E or reservatol can, is extremely useful when consuming Omega3s. Supposedly astaxanthin protects against the oxidation of PUFAs.

So if preventing the oxidation of PUFA's is seen as vital to getting their benefits while avoiding the problems of oxidation - how is it, again, that oxidation of Omega3s is a good thing?

Is this one of the cases where it's oxidation can result in both tumor cell death in one area but create it in another? Or am i misreading?

I am aware of Ivermectin. It is hard not to be, given how often people talk about it being censured.

The site you link seems to be asking for a EUA for giving it to the entire population, despite being less effective and higher side effects than vaccines. That does not meet the criteria for a hypothetical wonder drug.

Looking somewhat briefly, I will note that site you link even states that the current vaccines are preferable, but that Ivermectin should have been considered as an interim measure.
Right, but the ultimate goal is to help the company succeed and save it from itself and its management, which is just ass-backwards.
