Like most things there's quite a lot of factors to play into this but I would say one of the main factors here is that generally men start reducing natural testosterone production and gradually losing muscle mass sometime after around age 30. Basically, the more muscle mass you have, the more calories you burn to maintain it.

Also to compound this your metabolism tends to adapt to whatever you are doing. Even if you are doing lots of exercise, your body does tends to become more efficient at doing that exercise, using less calories to do the same thing over time. The same is true of running on lower and lower calories, your body adapts to run on less calories so it actually helps to do something of a 'bulking' period every so often to keep your metabolism running at a higher rate and not letting it drop down to 'economy mode'.

If you change nothing from your 20s to 30s, keeping exactly the same calories in your diet and same amount of exercise then you will most likely start to gradually gain a calorie surplus from this loss of muscle and thus start gain some more fat from the excess calories. You'll basically need to reduce calories or increase exercise to compensate.

Also look into what you can do to help maintain/improve your natural testosterone production (better sleep, nutrients like zinc and magnesium etc) as this will help offset it to some degree (poor sleep alone will absolutely destroy your natural testosterone levels). Alternatively you can look into Testosterone replacement therapy, which seems to be quite common these days.

Most VPN service providers (barring Mullvad and my current use- iVPN) have white label services. iVPN improved its app; Mullvad's price has remained static and its a brilliant deal for 60 Euros per year.

Proton uses its "pro" pricing to subsidise the people who use its free offering, and I find the product overhyped. AdGuard VPN is appealing for its implementation. I am using it on Android in conjunction with Adguard ad-blocker and have been happy with the outcome. I can also add Next DNS to the Adguard application for DNS level filtering.

That's bullshit. It's leaky vaccines that trigger the same narrow immune response that are causing immune escape and hotter variants to emerge.

What we're seeing is almost exactly like Marek's disease in chickens: https://www.quantamagazine.org/how-vaccines-can-drive-pathog...

We shouldn't be forcing everyone to take a non-sterilizing vaccine. It's incredibly dangerous. Profitable for pharma companies and governments who take away our rights, though.
Perhaps you're just trolling but this is an obvious false equivalency. YouTube prominently displays news from MSM without you asking to see it. Certain controversially search terms can be flagged and then only show MSM videos. Neither of these things are true of pornhub.

I use Reddit Enhancement Suite and the old design and I find it far superior. It feels more compact and efficient, like HN.
You might want to reflect on the way you just compared a legal press conference to gore porn, it makes me think that you're either so strongly gripped by pandemic mania that you honestly think that is a reasonable comparison to draw - or you just can't think of a sensible counterpoint.

I don't care them naming things after things. Things need a name and mythology is a great dictionary of a random assortment of unique words. However the names mean nothing in regards to the science. They're just mnemonics. Explaining the mythology in a science video is completely irrelevant.

This may be a special case because the question comes up so often, but in general, I don’t think libraries should document all the qualities they don’t have, because that’s inexhaustible. In my opinion, if a sort function isn’t documented to do a stable sort, it must be assumed to be not stable, regardless of current implementation details. It’s often not such a big deal either: in many cases, there’s an artificial key (an id) that you can use as a tie-breaker in the comparison function.

One thing I hate is when people look at the library source code to figure this kind of thing out, since any implementation detail can change with an update. Assume the most hostile implementation allowed by the docs and you’re usually fine.
They are probably too busy fighting against their own users and subreddits that keep them afloat. Too much ideology in there to make sense, business wise.
Thanks! Reading your site now. Is support for using native wireguard and OpenVPN clients considered first class alongside the Mullvad app?
And any restrictions accessing geoblocked streaming content (both from your side and providers' sides blocking Mullvad)?
It is only a slippery slope fallacy if your argument relies on sure escalation alone.

But if you have other factors, like obvious corporate ambitions to fight piracy or to protect their industry and states ambitions to fight memes that exposes or embarrasses their policies, it isn't a fallacy at all and just another indication.

> Should they have to?

I suppose the assumption was that "they use computers all the time", which wrongly was equated to "they use computers in a meaningful way all the time". However, at best, despite their often use of computers, that computer use has been superficial. Otherwise, I would have expected they would have encountered things like CONTROL+F and discovered the convention that you can use that shortcut to search in almost every program. However, somehow, these conventions and underlying concepts of desktops, GUIs, computers, and what not, stayed hidden somehow for most computer users.

Given the huge amounts of time spend using computers, I too expected people to have developed a deeper insight in how to use them. But, as others in this discussion have suggested, I suppose most people use computers only as a means to an end, not an end in itself. It is just a tool, like an oven, a mop, a car, and so on. They spend huge amounts of time using those tools as well without "mastering" them or developing a deeper understanding of them either. For example, unless you're interested in cooking you might cook almost every day without coming to understand cooking at a deeper level too.

The difference is that's scanning in the cloud, on their servers, of things people choose to upload. It's not scanning on the user's private device, and currently they have no way to scan what's on a private device.
You can with AMD cards, presumably Intel too. Applications, including the display server, will continue to use the old drivers until they are restarted of course.
The “goodwill” item on a balance sheet is based on how much the company paid for acquisitions above their book value. Since companies get bought for many reasons, it doesn’t mean anything specific about intangible property. It might mean that management overpaid for the acquisition and haven’t written it off yet.

The book value of a company isn’t supposed to match its intrinsic value. It only includes assets that have a clear price.
This has not been my experience.

It's very hard to disentangle though.

I have a smart, popular nephew from a good home, who also got extra acconodations on exams for dyslexia.

You could spin that either way:

Priviliged people taking advantage of accomodations for those with problems.

Or smart people who previously got written off as disruptive troublemakers being better catered for (though maybe we'll have less entrepreneurs if we keep all the smart people in the standard education track).

In particular, the benefits of living in a society with a basic level of mathmatical (etc.) understanding seems powerful but hard to trace through.

But if we can't even talk about the trade-offs calmly and factually then its just a pointless sgouting match. The people with the academic skills should be leading the way on that.
Apple will refuse requests to add other types of hashes …

Sure, but when it’s mandated by law, what then? How difficult would it be to force insurrection related imagery to that hash database? Apple would be in a very tough spot if that were made into law.

They’ve already opened a can of iWorms, because now that they’ve shown it can be done, lawmakers in any country can mandate the same technology be added to every device and it doesn’t have to be restricted to CSAM. That’s just the family-friendly excuse.
> You'll always have to go 'happiness as defined ...'

How is one meter defined?

You claim that happiness cannot be measured, yet in the next sentence you talk about measuring it by self reporting. One unreliable way of measuring doesn't equal to “cannot be measured”.
Yes, I did. You do realise that CSAM is just a policy control, and there is literally nothing technical from Apple adding non-CSAM content to the same policy and systems?

I feel like you may not have actually read the paper in depth. The paper clearly shows this is a generalised solution for detecting content that perceptually matches a database. The "what" is CSAM today, but nothing about the technicals require it to be CSAM.

To answer your specific response of safety voucher and visual derivative:

- The 'safety voucher' is an encrypted packet of information containing a part of the user's decryption keys, as well as a low resolution, grayscale version of the image (visual derivative). It is better described as "backdoor voucher".

- The 'visual derivative' is just the image but smaller and grayscale.

None of those two technologies have anything to do with CSAM. Apple's statement that they will only add CSAM to the database is a policy statement. Apple can literally change it overnight to detect copyrighted content, or Snowden documents, or whatever.
Tragically it would likely be political suicide in a country where a significant proportion of the population believe that even something like a free-at-point-of-use healthcare system like Britain's is "dangerously socialist".

Nice project! It makes me think how awesome it would have been if the C programming language had an actual community around it with package repositories and opinions and just actual gradual improvement of everything. Instead of the isolated projects each with their own build systems and styles, and the IRC channels with angry people telling noobs to read K&R.
Share the tech with all the desperate workers in an endless loop of conference vid calls... !

Makes you wonder how important most of the video calls really are...
Oh for sure, build is the main point and SoA isn't. The SoA feature discussions probably came from its deprecated interesting approach.

Collapsing into a single layer is great. As an aside, another language notorious for doing so would be Smalltalk, which is on the complete opposite end of the spectrum in terms of paradigm. It's kinda interesting to see the horseshoe theory in action in software philosophy.
> I probably am not either because I remember a time when there was no internet and PCs were a luxury.

On the other hand I regard myself as a digital native for precisely that reason: I and computers grew up together. I'm 67 and I was around to see and use early versions of computers, media players (portable cassette players), etc., and all the version between then and now. I'm quite confident that I am as well equipped to use any of the current technology as my children.

>Not how I understood it. But it seems you're right, the US only used war time powers to force companies to fill their orders first.

No. The US did invoke the Defense Production Act for certain medical equipment, to further ensure that its vaccine contracts are fulfilled first (<https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-03-24/biden-use...>). (But, let me quote for others' benefit (<https://www.ft.com/content/82fa8fb4-a867-4005-b6c2-a79969139...>): "The DPA does not allow the administration to block exports overseas".)

The US's contracts would have been fulfilled first regardless (albeit more slowly) without the DPA, because (as I said) the US was the first and paid the most. We know this because the US's Pfizer contract explicitly prohibited the company from exporting US-produced vaccine doses until March 31, but the company only began to export US-produced doses at the end of April because it still had to fulfill said US contract first (<https://www.barrons.com/articles/pfizer-to-export-u-s-made-v...>).

While this comment does make assertions that are still questionable, I think the spirit of it rings true. The scientific process has already been subverted for political gain.

It's natural for people to distrust governments and committees which have proven themselves untrustworthy - and to come up with their own explanations for what's happening, whether accurate or not.

The funny thing about combatting "misinformation" is that it requires that you either dissolve democratic processes and implement totalitarian measures, or you simply regain the trust of the people. We all know which option was chosen.
I was just looking at that the other day and wondering if it would be fun. Will definitely check it out with that endorsement.
After seeing the video..its comically bad.
This feels very niche. Typing the \ at the end of multi-line macros is something many editors help with (and forgotten \s are visible in syntax hilighting.) Binary inclusion is frequently just a small build script. Deferred resource release is already available as a GCC/clang extension, so it's only for less capable compilers as you say yourself.

That leaves the @ operator… which seems useful for specific cases (e.g. graphics rendering), but I can honestly say I don't really feel a need for that in the codebases I worked with.

But. Let me offer some suggestions for extensions! :)

An improved preprocessor would be massively useful if it had features like:

- enumerating struct members in preprocessor macros (something like:)

#define MACRO2(typename, fieldname, arg1, arg2) ... arg1 arg2 ...
#define MACRO(typename, arg1, arg2) something { #each-member(MACRO2, typename, arg1, arg2) }

struct bla {
int a, b;
}

MACRO(struct bla, x, y)
/* => something { MACRO2(struct bla, a, x, y) MACRO2(struct bla, b, x, y) } */

- same, for function parameters

- and last but not least, macros consuming { } blocks, e.g.

#define MACRO(...)#{name} something something #{name} something #{name}

MACRO(1,2,3) {
this block is consumed by the macro and placed in 2nd and 3rd #{name} (first one just signals the macro consumes a {} block
}

...oh and, almost forgot, "extensible" macros:

#define MACRO(...) abc

#ifdef MACRO
#extend MACRO(...) def MACRO(...) ghi
#else
#define MACRO(...) def stub ghi
#endif

(also, macros that can define other macros. Like _Pragma() => #pragma, _Define() => #define)
I like how you responded to that. You're not playing the counterfactual game though.

We're supposed to be travelling in the world of our creation and what we'll see will defy explanation. For instance desqview would have run on some imaginary DOS like system that would have been created in the power vacuum of the mid 80s.

We have to assume that IBM was a suffocating force on the industry and without it, there's more room to succeed. There's cascading consequences that all have high variance.
Impressive approach, you appear to have gone to great lengths to make the Cedro processor be plain C without any dependencies.

It can't be testosterone alone. I've got the levels of a 25 year old according to my urologist (and yes, he sent me to be checked for anomalies) and I've noticed a significant decline in metabolism after the age of 40, despite exercising and not gaining weight and sleeping more than before. My (unscientific) hypothesis is that it's mostly a mental thing due to work/life being less demanding at this point.

Apple is basically saying to governments: see our walled garden? The more you allow us to wall it, the more we can help you oppress your citizens.
One reason I haven't used itunes in years, and don't use iOS, is that I have a huge collection of mp3s. It's almost all of music which I bought and burned off CDs over decades, and it's become just stupidly difficult to organize your own mp3 collection via Apple's players. Even back in the ipod days, you could put your mp3s on an ipod but you needed piracy ware to rip them back off. I can easily see this leading to people like me getting piracy notices and having to explain that no, I bought this music, since we're now in a world where not that many people have their own unlocked music collection anymore.
Any kind of carbon capture system that is intended to enable the continued burning of fossil fuels is an obviously bad idea.

We need the tech in general, so we can for example extract carbon from methane we capture from landfills and find some kind of use for it, but anyone talking about fitting it to a coal or gas power plant is attempting a greenwash.

Taxing gray gas usage for carbon and putting the money towards green hydrogen and enforcing some minimal but rising percentage of green hydrogen in the mix to bootstrap the industry is obviously better long term.

Also, that green hydrogen has many cool uses but anything that can run on mains power or batteries is probably not a good fit.
The simple fact is that unmasked, the mean amount of time you can spend face to face with an infected person (with pre-Delta COVID) before you get infected yourself is maybe an hour or two.

Many, many doctors and nurses were caring for COVID patients every day for 9 months before they were able to be vaccinated. Many spent hundreds-thousands of hours in contact with COVID patients and didn't get sick.

This is extremely strong evidence that N95s work.

Because a brain surgeon requires a vastly larger amount of money, effort, training, and time to achieve their skill set.

Much less people would spend all of these resources, and time, becoming brain surgeons, if it was as lowly paid as much easier jobs.

No, they're not. It would be a lot worse without the vaccines.

Just compare how things are going on countries where vaccination is not happening vs countries that have a high population already vaccinated and you will see how ridiculous your comment is. Antivax and comments like this only makes things worse.
Given the current state of affairs it’s hard not to assume this is just another piece of anti-Huawei propaganda.

Another Mullvad user here. Generally happy, but the Windows and Android apps are somewhat buggy.

Every couple of weeks I have to reinstall the Windows app because it's failing to update, and the Android app started eating my battery recently (used 46% of a full charge yesterday after some hours of internet browsing).

In their defense their support has always been amazing when I contacted them about it, and the Android issue could be manufacturer's fault, since OnePlus is known for its shenanigans.

I'll continue with Mullvad for the foreseeable future.
I'm impressed every implementation is under 300 lines. Very nice.
