Regional subs are the worst, for whatever reason. My theory is it's because they bring together people with nothing in common besides their geographic location.

Even subs that should be neutral, fun or supportive have attitude problems. One about a game I'm playing, for instance, consists mainly of dramatic complaints with a feeling of impending doom.
I'm a convert into paper as well, I used to use google calendar, trello, various todo list applications. Paper just seems to win out because of its flexibility.

The best thing is you discover/invent more ways to use it as you use it more. You can't really add new features to an app so easily, but with paper its just a matter of writing it down. You can also break rules everywhere and your paper planner will not crash.
It appears that you can't tag an existing bookmark, but only when you create it. Seems like a hobbled feature...
I haven't created a TikTok video yet, so don't count on me for the details but on some videos I see a link to a playlist.

BTW, I skip all multi-part videos unless there is a good reason for being multipart. Most are trying to game the system.

If I'm understanding you correctly, are you asking whether parents are required to tell their adoptive children that they are adopted? In the US definitely not, and I think that's probably the case most places.

Whether or not the parents had a paternity test performed wouldn't have any bearing on it.

It's amazing how easy it is to exceed daily recommendations on sugar and salt. You basically have to eat only non-fruity produce and lean meat to get close to what our bodies evolved to thrive on.

As to the not-yet-overweight kids, give it time. Genes are a lottery and the carbs get everyone eventually.
How do you feel after 20 minutes on HN?

Two things:

A Bella 5.3 qt air fryer. The basket is one piece, ridiculously easy to clean:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HRTWZJN

This has completely simplified my eating, but it's not for everyone. I'm not interested in cooking, and I'm able to eat the same things every day without issue. Right now I have a few burger patties, a chicken thigh or two, and a pork chop every day, and once in a while, salmon. Plus I cook my dogs food too, mostly ground beef and burger patties, and pork loin.

When I say this simplified my life, I no longer use a stove top, induction cooktop, frying pans, or oven, ever, and got rid of most of the cookware. If I want a different meal, I can always order out, or when it's safe, go eat out somewhere, but that's rare for me anyway. I just drop in what I want, spices as desired, turn it on and come back and eat. It will also cook vegetables, and when I used to eat them, I liked them better this way as it gave them an oven-like caramelized flavor.

Here are two different vendor/models that have the exact same basket:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MR3KWSL

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WBSVH33

My original Bella still worked, but after using it between 3 and 6 times a day for over a year and a half it was time to retire it as the front had warped. I think it was $85 at the time. Couldn't buy it again as it said and still says not in stock at the link. So I searched for ones that had the same basket, and bought one each of the other two. Before the Bella, I had a much more $$$ Philips XXL, but that was a pain to clean because you had to take the basket apart etc. so I gave it away.

One tip: I don't go above 340 in temp, though they can go to 400 -- it'll warp the front a bit over time at the high temps, and fat can get into the element and make it smoke. Usually it's 280 deg for an hour with still frozen chicken thigh, and 280 deg for 20 mins for a thin burger, 30 mins for thicker. You'll have to experiment with temps and times until you find what you like with each food.

The second thing that has simplified my (cooking) life is a hard boiled egg maker:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XTJQN2X

Makes it a snap to get the cooking done right for soft, medium or hard boiled eggs, every time, very quickly. Just over $20 and I use it to hard boil 6 eggs every other day.
Even the question whether one can 'think' of something without having a linguistic representation is a topic of active debate. My personal take is that its possible, predators plan ambush, but do they have a linguistic representation ? Its not clear that they do.

Yes, to be pedantic about it, but I didn't say "send birds" or "do exactly what birds do", I said to look to them for ideas. Eliminate every extra gram, optimize aerodynamics and control for the purpose (c.f. owls vs. quail vs. hummingbird vs. woodpeckers) and go from there.

Bread can be ultra-processed. It can also be made with ground wheat grains that don't remove the germ or get bleached.
What are the puzzles? How did you entice them to start?
It makes sense.

Mushrooms (and some other devices) are how you see God etc.

I mean, it wasn't always just about reading old books. It had to start somewhere. With some kind of real observation.

And studying that stuff without the shrooms etc. Well, that's like studying microbiology without a microscope.

Well yeah, my neighbors appreciated I restored the house that was otherwise not in good condition. It sat empty for years. It was originally designed as a vacation/second home - and was never a primary residence or fully owner occupied home. It's in the mountain on over 5 acres. I'm not fully dismissing your concerns - but reality is, vacation homes are a thing. And they were a thing before Airbnb came around. Yes, I took a risk on renovating a dilapidated property. I worked within the framework the county has for allowing STRs. And I'll protect that investment by putting in restrictions and protections by not letting a bad guest ruin it for me.

Well, in the same way, producing TikTok content is creation, but watching TikTok content of others isn't (just like looking at other people dancing isn't creation either).

What's your point with this?
This is bullshit. Rows and rows of frozen vegetables in every grocery store have nothing added. No salt, no sugar.

You need to get pre-seasoned/ready-to-eat "20 minute dinner" trash to find added salt and sugar.
It's completely incongruent. The whole point of "decentralized" is to avoid relying on a central authority, and the price to pay is inefficiency. But if you're relying on a central authority anyway, why be inefficient?
"literacy" itself is not some transhistorical, transcultural "achievement" that is now being lost. we do not live in a civ game, and there is no rubric to compare ourselves against.

Another thing Tik Tok does is get rid of people who are obese, queer, or otherwise the target of harassment. Their stance is it's easier to get rid of the person being made fun of or limit who can see their videos rather than the 10k people harassing them.

> According to Netzpolitik, the social media company instructed moderators to find users who are “susceptible to harassment or cyberbullying based on their physical or mental condition.” These creators would then be marked with a “Risk 4” designation, meaning their videos would only be available to view in the country where it was uploaded. Company documents obtained by Netzpolitik explain TikTok’s reasoning for the ban, pointing to the fact that “bullying has been proven to cause severe emotional and physical distress, especially in minors.”

> TikTok also kept a separate list of “special users” who were considered to be “particularly vulnerable.” Many of the creators on this list, Netzpolitik discovered, made videos with the hashtags #fatwoman or #disabled, or had rainbow flags and other LGBTQ+ markers in their profile. TikTok moderators marked these creators with an “Auto R,” which meant that their videos, after hitting a certain amount of views, would be banned from TikTok’s algorithm of suggested videos that appear in every user’s “For You” feed. As a result, these creators’s videos would reach a much smaller audience than the average user. For many, dreams of going “TikTok viral” and gaining notability on the platform would be squashed by the policies.

> Social video network TikTok apparently limited the reach of people with disabilities, including facial disfigurement and Down syndrome. According to Netzpolitik.org, which spoke with a source inside the company, the policy was supposed to protect users with a high risk of bullying. In practice, however, it apparently amounted to discrimination — and the problem was compounded by moderators who needed to make snap decisions about users’ physical and mental traits.

> Why is bread not considered ulta-processed?

Even traditional bread is certainly highly processed, undergoing mechanical (milling), biochemical (fermentation), and thermal (baking) processing. It doesn't quite meet the definition of ultra-processed though as all these technologies are readily available to unsophisticated producers.

I think ultra-processed is some sort of proxy for hyperpalatable here.
And I assume there'd be some sort of web ring involved as well?

Is this like the

There are plenty of sites that focus on long form videos and it might make sense to put long form videos there, if one wants long form video content.
Initially, I'm thinking, "but that's just youtube with a slightly different presentation."

But then I thought about the fact that a lot of significant developements were "just <something else> with a slightly different presentation."

Those programs produced Nobel prize-winning scientists, Field prize-winning mathematicians, computational whiz kids, and CEOs of billion dollar companies, etc. I'm sure you've heard of Perelman.

But even the non-Perelmans - the "regular" students - who didn't rise to the peaks of intellectual rigor still have a stronger background in today's knowledge economy then most of their contemporaries stateside.

As far as their children are concerned, the Russians and Chinese send their best 18 year-olds to Ivies, Ivy-likes, and Oxbridge just as they send their best 18 year-olds to Moscow State and Peking. Many of them prefer an American degree for the business opportunities, better income, and the prestige of working for an American firm. A more relevant question to ask is how many would send their best 14 year-olds to the average public high school in the US, or the average comprehensive school in the UK, as full-time students for at least 3 years?
As opposed to US based networks?
What sort of manipulative amplification/suppression, specifically? Maybe a skinner box outrage machine that turns us into hostile tribes sniping over cultural crap while completely unable to govern ourselves as they surpass us?
Yes but it also tends to have lots of fiber, unless again it has been engineered to have as little as possible with maximum sugar content.

And the usual advice of "everything in moderation" applies to fruit as well. You can certainly eat unhealthy amount of sugar via fruit, but it is much more difficult than via junk food.

100 grams of donuts contains 50 grams of refined sugar. That's close to half a kg of apples (nearly a pound in freedom units). You could certainly eat that many apples, but then you are also eating a lot of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fiber. And once you ate half a kg of apples, you are literally stuffed.

While I actually agree with this rhetoric I find it hard to convince others, and I think now is not the time to openly express this opinion or share data on this topic. It's hard to say exactly how Delta behaves, or what dangers it poses. The water is muddy-- many people are vaccinated and many are not, vaccine efficacy for variants* is not fully understood yet.

In a few months I will be able to look back, but I don't think quarantine restrictions will become substantially stricter, regardless of impact. I also don't think the growth of cases is soon to decline in the immediate future.

It's all quite hard to say. I do know that this would be easier if all able people were to be vaccinated.

*To the best of my own knowledge.
So, what do you think happens to those creations? They just go right into the dumpster, having fulfilled the moral obligation of their creators to constantly be producing things?
Try to minimize the amount of refined sugar and white flour in your diet. That'll get you below the 70%. As you're probably suspecting, it isn't easy! Refined sugar is in almost everything you buy at the grocery store, save for fresh produce and meat. White flour is present in many breads - even whole wheat bread! Yes - whole wheat bread oftentimes means there's whole wheat flour used in making the bread, it doesn't mean only whole wheat flour was used. And breakfast cereal? Yeah, that's going to be hard to replace, especially for a five year old! Oatmeal is a good alternative but unless you're buying a box of old-fashioned oats and making it yourself you're likely to be buying a lot of refined sugar. Those healthy granola bars? Lots of refined sugar. Trail mix, especially the ones with the M&M's? Ungodly amounts of refined sugar.

To be honest I'm kinda surprised that it's only 70% of calories coming from refined foods.
A dog I live with, not technically mine, can count to at least three. She hates waiting in her harness before we go on walks, and has learned that I am ready to go after taking three poop bags. If I only pull two bags, she won’t come downstairs and wait by the door. If I pull the third bag, she immediately walks down the stairs. I noticed it the other day because I had two bags on me; so, she only heard me pull one bag and refused to walk downstairs. Then I pulled a second one, still nothing. Finally, I pulled the third one and she immediately trotted on down. Now that I’m aware of it, I’ve been paying attention and yep... she only ever comes down after hearing a third bag. I’ve been pretty shocked by it to be honest (in a good way)...

Unless we're talking about collateralized debt, most of the time my understanding is they'll send debt collectors after you and little else - those debt collectors are often willing to negotiate on the amount because they bought it for less than face value, especially if you put it off for a while.

I considered doing this because I got scammed by a water heater rental company that was asking for a ridiculous sum when I bought a new home, but eventually decided to avoid the credit hit. If I were closer to retirement it would have been a no-brainer.
Bravo! And thanks for the meticulous follow-up.

Edit: my config is approximately the same, so I apologise for not specifying them more thoroughly. Doing so with one finger and no copy/paste is onerous.

there are a few worrying trends on the internet which are difficult to attribute to simply headstrong visionaries concerned with the general progress of our species
I get "No no no" videos but when I mentioned them to my friend who is using TikTok a lot she had never heard of them. I presumed that was too big of a trend not to leak into everyone's For You feed but I was wrong.
You said "tech companies has to save the data and share with the gov".
I have learned something valuable from reading something on Reddit or watching a how to video or explanation video on youtube.
Look at the "math test" video.

Given the question: "Jane has 9 balloons. 6 are green and the rest are blue. How many balloons are blue?" The model outputs: "jane_balloons = 9; green_balloons = 6; blue_balloons = jane_balloons - green_balloons; print(blue_balloons)"

That seems like a good justification of a (very simple) step-by-step reasoning process!
Ask HN: How tall should a giant mutant spider be to break my roof?
If a gentle mutant giant spider could be heavy enough to come by, sit down on the roof and, unfolding it's legs through the tiles, devastates the whole house, the question that remains for me is: how tall should it be?

According to Wikipedia, the heaviest spider in the world weighs 175 grams for up to 13cm body length (Goliath Birdeater). Let's say that the mass needed to break my wooden roof (we're in the countryside) should be around 15kg per square foot. Dumbly, the arachnid should be around 80 times bigger, or around 10 meters long.

That does look pretty big indeed on paper but what do you think? Should it be bigger?

Have an awesome evening otherwise fellows
They're processed foods, but not ultra-processed. Generally that means advanced factory processes and chemicals that are only used in industrial settings. Factory made bread is likely to be ultra-processed, however.
I could also just drink Huel and save an hour a day not eating but I don't because I like eating.
My dog just does a protest sit-in when I do that. He wouldnt move till he gets his due number (two). I can fool him by splitting a treat into two, so seems he is counting rather than going by mass.
If you're active enough when young, you can be a trash can food-wise and still look fit. But it catches up with you, and those bad habits are tough to break, after the fountain of youth grinds to a halt.
Very true. Of course, that's always been true since they manufacture the hardware and the OS for the hardware. They're optimally positioned to hide any type of behavior they want in the full stack of the product.

I think you are conflating two issues. Continued pollution is a problem, regardless of whether carbon capture or something else is used as the excuse. Carbon capture itself is not the problem there.

We need to do two things: a) stop polluting further, and b) re-sequester as much of the GHG currently in the atmosphere as we can.

Carbon capture helps with the second requirement, and doesn't particularly harm the first (since if carbon capture was not a useful excuse the polluters would simply find or make another)
Most popular online things exist because the concept of "opportunity cost" (in time, attention, money, whatever) is no longer taught.

TSQL and PSQL ideas of a stored procedure are not really the same.

If your SQL is mostly bound columns or some sort of ORM only then you can get lucky and just play the data type matching game. But most of the ones I have ever had to port was playing the 'rewrite these 300 stored procs again' game. They usually ended up in some sort of stored procedure for one of a few reasons 'they only knew how to do that', performance, that is what the senior guy wants.

That's pretty broad. Some of those things might be harmful, some might not be. I doubt extruding dough, cooking ("chemically modifying") it and wrapping it in plastic makes it any worse for you, for example. Whereas on the other side of the spectrum, there may indeed be food additives or chemical treatment process that _do_ make things worse.

Maybe it's not helpful to paint things with such a broad brush, and we should instead focus on specific substances or practices which might be causing problems?

Be warned that their code quality is pretty bad. There was a bug I was dealing with last year where it did not delete objects but returned the correct HTTP response code indicating it did. This was widespread, not just some edge case I encountered. Their broken test suite doesn't actually verify the object on disk changed. I tried to engage them but they blew me off.
