Yeah, from my research a lot of dietary stuff is like that. I have tried to completely overhaul my diet over the last year or so to be healthier, but there seem to be so many confounding variables that it can be really hard to make firm conclusions for a lot of things.

But yeah, the answer to a lot of things does seem to be "it's complicated". Take the "fat is bad" narrative - was always massive oversimplification, and it really depends on the type of fat - some fats (like monounsaturated and Omega-3 fats) it seems we really should be eating more of, not less!

why would we want to sell drugs that are "safe" but ineffective?

imagine someone is in need of an effective treatment, but they don't like it or heard some rumors on tv or youtube, then instead they take an ineffective drug and think they aren't contagious, yet now they are potential spreaders of a disease... that doesn't sound safe at all to me.
Yes, i totally agree with you. I have been working in company where both native as well as non-native speakers are there.Always feel comfortable while speaking with natives ones.
I have had a couple of bad experiences so stopped using them.

One time the person literally changed location on us to a poorer option and to add insult to injury it clearly had not been cleaned, hair inside the bed sheets type stuff and uncleaned bathroom etc.

Tried to contact AirBNB about instant cancel so we could head to a hotel and nothing. Again tried after the stay as we shouldn't have to pay same rate for a downgrade and nothing both times.

Personally I'm hotels now if traveling solo. Far less problems, better quality and the price is much the same. I use another Australia only based equivalent for houses if doing a group thing and they have always been great.
It's a nit and harms the signal to noise ratio. There are good kinds of pedantry and bad kinds.
Right, in my apartment building I don't have a choice. It's all through Comcast.
"Side project" means a few hours a week.

I've had some pay off quicker than that, but the model for that is 20 hours a week for 4 weeks.

The "pay off" tends to be that someone realizes they just saw something they never saw before and they are so blown away an opportunity materializes.

Some examples:

* I got busted for anti-spam activities when I was in grad school, had to do "community service", decided to combine that with a tropical vacation, ended up developing one of the very first XML applications, wrote a book chapter about it, then took a trip to Sao Paulo to create a chat application aimed at Brazil.

* I built an "AI" that collected a million photographs that were almost perfectly tagged, made a web site based on it, and started getting better work

* I challenged myself to print something on my inkjet printer every day to keep it from drying out; along the way I got systematic about it, added support for QR codes, NFC, web publishing, etc. Made modifications to signage in my building and so far haven't gotten any complaints. Learned how to change the way people perceive things that already exist in the environment. This project encountered a "crisis" every month or so that caused big changes (printing the back first instead of the front caused me to not be afraid of using a lot of ink; that turned out to be important when I discovered that covering 30% of the wall with something 80% reflective has an uncomfortable effect on radiative transfer in a bright room.)

That last project will probably translate to more artistic endeavors, seducing people, and doing some kind of exhibition or performance even though I still don't know what that will be.

Technically what you’re doing is ad hominem—invalidating the arguments of the post by attacking what the author does for a living. It’s not even necessary that someone who makes (possibly extra) money publishing insights is out for validation—there really are just people who are willing to pay for insights and he’s simply fulfilling a demand. Anything else beyond seeing what he does as simply business is pure speculation.
ugh, that's not confidence inspiring. I'd like to get a NAS to get my data out of cloud services.

Would periodically swap out drives and store the backup ones at a relatives house.

Would keep it disconnected from the external internet other than for pulling in updates.

But this makes me nervous.
Hard disagree. For me, Linux is easily twice as productive as MacOS. I think it's more about what you're used to.
I guess you could say this, but given that the planet is essentially burning it seems like we're getting way ahead of ourselves with this type of "solution" when we could be working on more important problems.
I used to use Firefox for Android out of principle too, but I got sick of being used as a guinea pig for their UI experiments. They seem oblivious to the existence of muscle memory.

That Wikipedia page is weird. The paragraph reports it as the corn production for 2019 but the link says it was retrieved in 2014. The current page has no numbers (but a video). A link to https://www.iowacorn.org/corn-production/production/ shows (for Iowa corn), 44% ethanol/fuel, 25% feed, 18% exports, 4% food and industrial.

I was referring to another commenter's:

https://extension.okstate.edu/fact-sheets/print-publications...

2015, of course.
Correcting my comment here, the article apparently have a huge error: The 1.8 trillion would be for 4000 facilities, not per facility.. The article says this:

> If cultured protein is going to be even 10 percent of the world’s meat supply by 2030, we will need 4,000 factories like the one GFI envisions, according to an analysis by the trade publication Food Navigator. To meet that deadline, building at a rate of one mega-facility a day would be too slow.

> Each of those facilities would also come with a heart-stopping price tag: a minimum of $1.8 trillion, according to Food Navigator.

However, the link it is refering says this:

> According to CE Delft's techno-economic analysis, each factory could cost around $450m. A quick calculation suggests 4000 factories at this price would cost an eye-watering $1.8trn.

So the 1.8 trillion would be for 4000 facilities, not per facility. At that cost the investment to replace the worlds meat production would be worth 20 years of traditional meat farming, and then running cost above that. Significant but not unsurmountable as the article wanted to claim.
> Is the platform still easily used by business users?

I don't know and honestly I don't believe there's a system that actually achieves it. But this it does go beyond BI in actually being aimed towards running code based on results. Which makes it closer to Labview-with-graphs than to BI.
From an environmental perspective, we actually do need to eat meat, just not the cow. Humans can't eat the only plants which can grow in marginal land areas, whereas goats and other hardy livestock can and then themselves be eaten by humans.

So the optimal diet to feed the world sustainably, currently, includes animal protein. Pure vegan is a luxury choice under that model.
FYI there is a chromium fork called Kiwi Browser that supports extensions. I'm using it to tell you this right now.
…and thinking about this a bit more, it seems unlikely to me that any sort of approval for medication that makes it less likely that a person would become infected with Covid (colloquially, a ‘vaccine’) would rely on the definition of the word “vaccine” on an informational CDC web site - which seems to be what you’re (perhaps unintentionally) _implying_ with your comments.

If this is what you believe, do you have a source for this?

No, I am not saying that Israel is correct or not because the morality here is completely subjective. There is no correct and there is no incorrect.

Israel’s different moral standards are a reasonable human response for THEM because of the history of genocide attempted on the Jewish people and the present day threats of genocide that are still being made against them.

So in that sense, I believe they do have a probable similar moral standard as the average man on the street, because the average man on the street would likely take any step necessary and within their means to prevent a genocide from being committed against them, especially if an attempted genocide just recently happened to them.
> Never go over-fancy with inheritance and whatnot.

So much this.

Personally, I've grown to prefer object composition for bucketing and sharing reusable functionality across classes over the years. Testing with mocks becomes far easier, and it really seems to simplify the mental model.

Nowadays, I only use inheritance when working with generics and generalizable interfaces.
If I die earlier due to my love of dairy, well that's a price I'm willing to pay.
Land use questions are far more of a concern in developing countries than in the US. The area of forested land in the US is actually increasing, not decreasing.

But in general the point is that meat production does not have to be displacing other food production. Cows are actually a way to convert otherwise worthless land into food. And the grass they're eating is not going to typically store carbon otherwise.
Which number? The few hundred thousand saved?

There's possible confounds, but none can explain vaccinated people being fewer than 6% of deaths (my MLE: about 2% of deaths) and more than 50% of the population. Especially since the vaccinated are, overall, a sicker and older population than the country at large.

The vaccine RCTs were not powered sufficiently to show a reduction in COVID death, given that they had no or basically no COVID death in either group. They did show a huge reduction in illness and severe illness, and now we're observing a commensurate reduction in death in the population.
I've had the pleasure of meeting Aaron at a number of ruby confs. He's supportive from the largest all the way to the smallest.

My personal favorite thing he'll do is ask conference speakers questions that make the speaker look good/best-light-possible. Something slightly technical/challenging, not fully covered in the talk but definitely something the speaker can handle.

To be able to do this consistently means he knows the topic better than the speaker themselves (at least this has been true when I've been there).

This is in contrast to people who ask "gotcha" questions. Spend 3-4 minutes showing off their knowledge and then finally getting to the question which is to stump the speaker. I hate these kinds of people at conferences the most.
"than to have it never live at all"

Please also evaluate this in the context of humans. Should it be allowable for humans to create offspring to satisfy their "need" to reproduce then it means their offspring have to suffer working and struggling, likely without a noble purpose?
The left struggles to gain any traction because they fail at marketing their ideas to a set of key demographics in a small number of swing and low-population states. The average American is a liberal American.
That's the Impossible Burger. The process for making that is reasonably simple and scales well. Part of the trick is that they add heme, made via fermentation of genetically engineered yeast, to produce the "bloody" taste people want in meat. So the only part that requires a bioreactor is no more complicated than a small brewery. The other part of the trick is some clever extrusion technology to get a meat texture.

It's not bad as a burger. Go to a Burger King and get a beef Whopper and and an Impossible Whopper and compare. Even with no condiments they're pretty close.

Now if they can get the excessive salt content down...
I use chromium based browsers on mobile primarily and I just want to agree with you wholeheartedly. I don't know why this decision was foisted on us. Two layers of organizational abstraction with minimal benefit. I'm sure some people like it, but that's why you make it optional. The UX with nesting tabs is absolutely abysmal.

What comes most to mind is the impossibility of flight and the mortal peril of traveling at speeds above 60 mph.

I.e., "never" is a lot longer than hyperbole allows for; and, it's easy to poke holes in a selected straw-person, a lot harder to anticipate the manners in which someone might change some of your axioms out from under you.

One off the cuff example: actual-whey-protein non-animal ice cream is now available down the street from me. Is it "vat milk"? Well, no; it's a novel solution that marries the actual protein in cow milk, with fats from vegetable sources.

They didn't violate thermodynamics to produce an interesting middle ground between cow-milk and plant milks (oat, almond, soy, coconut, whatever).

Similarly, it's a lot easier to tsk tsk about some arbitrary idea of what cultured meat is,

than to anticipate the ways in which it might be grown which have nothing to do with your tidy model.

As an aside, I'm interested to look in who is funding David there.

The American industrial farm meat industry has a LOT to lose if we get vat-bacon. Certainly enough to fund some opposition research water-muddying, eh?

I find notebooks tend to get messy very fast, a lot of scrolling and forgetting where certain cells are and what context is at the point, did you do any tests before, has a variable changed.

What I wanted was a production panel and a explore panel. To separate the exploring from the production code.

Maybe panels, maybe colour coded maybe hiding cells except a title. Anyway to stop the mindless scrolling.

Cells should be searchable via the first comment similar to sublime @funtion_name will take you to that function.

I spend half my time scrolling around getting lost.

I often cut cells and move them around to a new context which is time consuming and I have lost cells more than once by forgetting to paste them and copying something else mid way scrolling up the page. Would be nice to have a have a panel for saved cells where I can call by !call:cell_name or similar.

Notebooks are very helpful, has anyone found any ways to solve these problems?

That’s a little ironic since, in a real sense, Rails itself came as an afterthought, not a fully formed vision. DHH built Basecamp without a framework, and then refactored a lot and extracted the core of what he’d happened to build into a very general reusable framework. You could criticize Phoenix for not having the same pedigree I suppose, of being first and foremost a product for getting things done, and only a framework as a secondary decision, but saying rails started with an opinionated vision and Phoenix didn’t is a bit funny, or like the pot calling the kettle a water retaining vessel.

Users who don't wish to learn markdown can simply spend two seconds hovering over a "Markdown guide" tooltip at the bottom of the textarea whenever they want to do that.

I tried this once. I spent ten minutes on the phone (recording it) with someone who obviously knew nothing about my car (I don't own one) but who wanted to confirm I had the one on they think I have (Of course I had to go first). She had a strong Indian accent so I figured from a call center in India, so I had to wait until I was speaking to someone in America. As I finally was being transferred to the company the line just went dead.

It's possible he really did violate Google's "Program Policies" which are utterly ridiculous:

"If storing or distributing content related to terrorism for an educational, documentary, scientific, or artistic purpose be mindful to provide enough information so viewers understand the context."

So a random photo of a ute with the ISIS logo on the side might be a violation if you don't also write some commentary explaining what it's about and assuring everyone that you aren't promoting or celebrating terrorism. But where? in another file? How will a person with a link to the photo find that?
Or, bear with me, use a fork of chromium and get google to give you their labor for free while using a piece of software that serves you first and foremost.

Consider the Gigaset GS4 or one of their older devices. The GS4 is not currently rooted afaik but some of their older devices (GS290?) are supported by (edit)e.foundation [1] and etc. As an additional benefit, they are made in Germany (though the origin of the parts is probably not exclusively German I guess.)

Also worth noting is that Tor Browser for android inherits all these issues. The most annoying one is not being able to download images from sites that use cookies, since 90% of the mainstream websites you'll visit via Tor require you to fill out the Cloudflare DDOS protection captcha, and require the use of cookies!
After a certain point in their careers, it really does feel like a large percentage of people stop asking "why?" when faced with new requirements, standards, etc.

Maybe it's just a natural part of getting older, as habits and perspectives become more ingrained over the course of time.

There is of course now way to explain all that here.

But that's wasn't the point, the point of the post was that I had a moment of clarity, of what was important to me and where my life was going. I got married because that is what society and family expected, I realized that was not for me.

But ya, if divorce papers are on the table, time to smell the coffee, the fat lady is singing, turn out the lights, time to move on.
I agree as well. Those two use-cases for using Facebook don't seem to apply to me. Here's what I use it for:

- Local community groups - I have a few groups localised for my suburb and surrounds, specifically "good karma" groups which are for people asking for/offering help. I'm also part of volunteer organisations and specific interest groups that post updates.

- Buying/selling, both on the marketplace and groups specific for certain things.

- Events. Useful for keeping up-to-date with event information, offering lifts to places and buying/selling tickets.

- Chat. Both with my friends and certain chat groups and also being able to contact people within my network quickly and easily.

I rarely if ever post anything on my profile, and I block the News Feed with plugins/extensions to avoid the infinite scroll.

Granted, a lot of these things could be replaced with other services out there. I'm aware of the privacy concerns and the UI/UX is getting worse over time. I hate Facebook, but the community and people I want to access all use it, so I don't really have a choice if I want to keep in touch.

To claim that people only use social media to seek validation or because your life is so mediocre that you need to consume the best moments of other people's lives, strikes me as a bit out-of-touch and arrogant.
These sorts of things look like inspirational posters and suffer from survivorship bias. Many more ideas failed than succeeded.

We also seem to think that no one learned from all that experience. We can see the things that made something once thought impossible work at scale. We all know these stories. So we’re more primed to be wary of just being negative.

I’m all for spending money on this, but it could turn out certain breakthroughs are needed and we don’t know when or if they will come.
