I use a Ubiquiti Dream Machine as the main router, connected to my ISP modem which is in bridge mode. I then have a couple of UniFi access points in key places around the house, wired with ethernet back to the Dream Machine, using PoE injectors because I haven't yet needed a switch.

Honestly, it works great. Getting IPv6 functional was a case of checking one box in the UI, I can monitor and control tons of stuff in the iOS app (although an account is needed for that AFAIK), and I have zero complaints about LAN or WAN performance. I very rarely have to do anything with it, sans logging in to update the firmware on the devices.

Having said that, I used to be stuck with an ISP router that forced its own NAT (no bridge mode), and that itself was behind carrier-grade NAT. With that setup, the Dream Machine didn't work so well... although in fairness, nor did other devices and protocols relying on LAN discovery like Sonos or AirPlay. But the Dream Machine setup process specifically was really bad; It performed an Internet connection check that clearly couldn't work its way through the multiple NAT layers. I had to connect it to someone else's DSL just to get past the Internet setup screen, which I don't expect from a device that costs hundreds of dollars.

So, pros and cons. Overall, the consensus online seemed to be that the Security Gateways are better devices software-wise, but that they also just can't keep up with modern Internet speeds. So I'm happy.
I like Rhonda Patrick too bad. I didn't watch that episode. He's human and not infallable, but like the redditors you may have an opinion already, and just want to be agreed with, OP in the thread and Joe already formed their opinions and wouldn't change it. No strong force is making you agree that the moon landings were fake or aliens made the pyramids, but you are free to believe so if you want.
Manual subscription management is a problem. The current choices are: you either have to manually control everything or surrender control to an opaque algorithm.

I am building https://linklonk.com to explore a middle ground - you upvote/downvote content as a way to tell a transparent algorithm who you want to get more/less content from.

When you upvote a post/link, LinkLonk connects you stronger to other users that upvoted it and prioritizes other content they upvoted for you.

When you downvote something - your connections to those who upvoted that become weaker, and their other upvotes don't have much weight for you.

This makes it much more scalable - the algorithm keeps track of your connections to everyone else. You could be connected to hundreds of users and RSS feeds on LinkLonk, without having to explicitly subscribe to them. But you still have control - you express it every time when you decide whether to upvote or downvote the content you just read (or do nothing).

You end up connected the strongest to sources that have the highest signal-to-noise ratio for you. You see content from those who have proven to be good curators of content, which I think is a good feedback loop.
You could probably do that with something like M1, it's just on you to decide which companies. Start with all companies of the S&P500 and start removing the ones you don't like.
Vetted by whom?
You're looking at bacterias on a petri dish. They are exponentially taking over the dish and soon will collapse under their own activity.

That's us. An advantage we have over the bacterias is that we can discuss together how we will face the limits of our box.

Saying "not slowing down and consuming everything in the dish is not serious" confuses me. It's the only serious thing here. Everything else is noise before we collapse.

Exponential scale is scary. Bacterias doubling every cycle means 1 cycle before the bottle is full, it's half full. You're looking around and there is still plenty of room. Next cycle it's 100% and you're gasping for air.

Humans don't double every cycle but you only need 7% growth to double in 10 years.

So when you hear that we use X% more steel or coal every year, keep in mind it's a doubling cycle every few years.

Reducing consumption (per capita and/or population size) is the only serious discussion to not hit the walls and gasp for air

In my experience (I have type 1 diabetes and wear a glucose monitor) carbohydrates are responsible for pretty much all blood glucose increase. Some people report fat and protein eventually being converted to glucose, hours later, but this doesn’t seem to happen to me. Carbs start a rapid increase in blood glucose about 15 minutes after consumption. The only real variability for me is that my liver also puts out a bunch of glucose in the morning.

> Notice subtle changes in behavior: the most useful hint here is when someone who used to be very vocal about an issue stops complaining.

This point resonated greatly with my own observations, both of myself and of other colleagues with each development team I've been part of.

I think another challenge is fostering a culture where everybody genuinely cares about the output that's delivered. Not everybody will. Some people are comfortable moving tickets from triage through to a resolved state day in, day out without caring whether this process or the output can be improved.
That is because laptop is a misnomer. While technically possible, most of them have some sort of vents for either air intake or outlet there. Which is then blocked. And makes it cook. Even if they vent backwards/sideways only, they still cook because the little free space between bottom and table(or whatever surface) is still blocked.

His recovery method give him credibility, unless you think most unvaccinated people recover in 3 days and nothing he did helped his recovery. Mainstream news say nothing he used including ivermectin works while anyone with a brain will look at the results of his recovery and say the mainstream news has no relevance, its like seeing 1+5=6 then some overpaid group of talking heads in makeup and dressed to present random factoids they don't care about or have any interest in are paid to say its not right, and they state the math is wrong. They are deluded if they think they have any credibility left vs real results. Why are the people denying it valid by that standard?

I didn't read the article, but my very basic understanding of mRNA vaccines is that they cause your own cells to produce the spike protein so that your immune system can learn to attack it without actually having the virus present. Does this finding imply that the vaccine would also inhibit DNA damage repair? Or is it more like, in combination with the virus, the spike protein inhibits DNA repair?

There are an awful lot of people who work eight hours, come home, and plop in front of a screen until they go to bed. They do this for decades until they die. People didn't do this as much when there were only three stations on TV and you'd find other things to do. It isn't that much of a mystery.
> seems like you're bending over backwards to explain that CDE's weaker rendering is a good thing

You'd be wrong.

What i write isn't about CDE but about antialiased text. As i wrote a few parent posts above i even have antialiased text disabled on Windows 10 via a registry setting and Windows can certainly do antialiased text rendering.

> If CDE could render better but let you opt out that'd be great... but it can't render more accurately in the first place. It's not choosing to be worse.

CDE can do antialiased text rendering, or more precisely Motif can (CDE doesn't render its own fonts) if configured to do so via Xft which uses FreeType for font rasterization - the same library that other toolkits (e.g. Qt) use. So its font rasterization can be as good as other toolkits. You need to do it via X resources and is opt-in instead of opt-out.

And besides i do not even use CDE myself, last time i used it was years ago out of curiosity. Personally on Linux i prefer Window Maker (which can also optionally use Xft for antialiased text rendering).
Every boolean option you add to a system doubles the possible configurations of the system, and the possible interactions and bugs. Add just ten new flag options and you've increased the configuration state by 2*10 or 1024 times.

That's why options are a bad thing.
>With all due respect, how do you define "makes my day worse"?

Does their job in such a way that it runs completely counter to the central mission of running a company/Department, contributes to higher employee attrition, creates more work that has to be undone, etc?

Run into it all the time. They can know their stuff, they can be able to apply it, but if they're a raging, uncontrollable unaccountable jerk, or have a physical odiousness or manner that disrupts the workplace for others, all the skills in the world cannot save you in the course of being hired by me.

We spend a full third minimum of our lives working. When you're responsible for a team, I see it as a serious responsibility to make sure everyone is accommodated for and welcome... Even that though is finite. I call it the "Filthy Breeder Jerk Chicken" exception.
Yes the config files are described in manual pages though, remember that most of the users that worked on this were working on green-screened text terminals only a few years earlier. So this wasn't a big leap for them and more of a natural transition.

But I also remember it took me some time to figure it out. Especially because it required logging in and out to test it, and if there was a big mistake the login would fail and I'd have to jump into a text shell to fix it :P
Those are all good questions that I don't have the answer to.

I know I didn't make the original claim, I just took issue with the initial reply as I felt like it was removing nuance from the discussion. My reply didn't really add much and I probably shouldn't have made it, so I'll try to add something to the discussion below:

For me, I think, it comes down to whether or not something is presented as an opinion or as fact/truth. There's far too many opinion pieces presented as news these days and a lot of people have trouble processing that.

A headline or claim like "China manufactured this virus as a bio weapon to attack the united states!" at the beginning of a pandemic when no one has any information yet is bad.

Discussing whether or not it could have been a lab leak and whether or not it was manufactured is a different thing, and whether it was or was not an attack are acceptable topics, though, I think.

How you actually enforce this I have no idea and I know it's easy to go down the rabbit hole of "who watches the watchers."
> It's like if a patient came to their doctor complaining of water retention, and the doctor said "well clearly you're drinking more than you're excreting" and sent the patient home with instructions to drink less and pee more.

I agree that if that were the only thing the doctor said, they would be a pretty terrible doctor. What would happen in the real world is that the doctor would try to diagnose why the person is drinking more than they're excreting, and help stop that from happening, whether it's a psychological reason, an illness, or some other reason.

What the doctor for sure needs to have, though, is a base understanding that if someone is complaining of water retention, the underlying thing that is happening really is that they're drinking more than they're excreting. That's the basis of the diagnosis process. "You drink, then you excrete liquids, and if there's a misbalance there you have a problem" - if the doctor denies that, it's impossible to diagnose anything.

> but the EBM to me just seems hilariously inadequate to explain the obesity crisis.

I'd just like to point out that people usually talk about diet/nutrition in two contexts. One is the context of "how should I personally eat to lose weight" (or gain weight, but losing is more common). The other context is "how do we explain the society-wide obesity epidemic.

Those are very different questions. They both need to start by taking the EBM seriously, since it's completely proven science (both on a theoretical and on a practical level).

But I completely agree with you that the model by itself doesn't explain the obesity epidemic. It doesn't even try to, really - it just says that we know for sure people are eating more calories now, and therefore they are becoming obese. Why they are eating more calories is a separate mystery (though, in my mind, it's not very mysterious - far larger access to far more calorically-dense but nutritionally-poor foods).
not as high touch as finding a tenant, maintenance, etc.

Flipping is low touch compared to that. To flip, all you need is a buyer willing to pay money, and it's a single transaction.
Being "woke" goes beyond just being a decent person though, because most people's metric for decency is interpersonal decency. My understanding is that the sociological concepts that go into "wokeness" include intersectional analysis, microaggression theory, critical theory, 3rd wave feminism, gender theory etc. I think these ideas are mostly good (with the exception of microaggression theory), but they go way beyond "just be decent to other people" and into the territory of deep academic and systemic mindsets that are far from the default in the individualist West (and especially the US). I mean damn, half these ideas are French, and France is pretty culturally different from the US, French academia even moreso.

For example: not being racist on an individual level is pretty intuitive and obvious to most people, and mostly comes down to being a decent human being. Being institutionally anti-racist is a totally different thing, and way more involving, because you're not just not being a dick to people of a different race; you're trying to counteract systemic disadvantages.
L0L. This might be a new level of wokeism. Virtue signalling via condescending, taunting language directed towards someone the woke has identified as dealing with more significant problems than themselves. Truly brave and stunning. Praise George Floyd, most deserving martyr.
Why .so? Unless you’re actually linked to Somalia, its registration rules don’t allow that, so your registration is liable to be terminated at any time. See https://sonic.so/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/dotso-domain-nam..., clause 5.5.2.

If you ever want to use a ccTLD, I recommend starting by looking at the registration restrictions in the infobox in the ccTLD’s Wikipedia article, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.so says “Limited to institutions and organizations in Somalia, residents of Somalia, others who have a legitimate, clear and provable connection to Somalia”. Also consider whether you trust the country in question to operate its registry well, not to have hostile takeovers that mess up the entire thing, &c.

Generally speaking, I recommend avoiding using ccTLDs in this way. Even new gTLDs are mostly safer. One possibility there is papyrus.pub (“pub” being nominally short for public houses, the eating places and such, but also definitely being used for publishing).

I have seen about three other .so domains, notion.so being by far the best-known; and Notion has definitely had trouble at least once either with their registration or with the operation of the registry.
> So its font rasterization can be as good as other toolkits.

Can someone configure CDE to have accurate fonts and icons and 320 DPI if that’s what they prefer? If not why is that not possible?

I’ve actually never heard of the Nutrisense CGM. I have type 1 diabetes and use a Dexcom, which is way more expensive than that. As far as I know, all others (Libre 2, Medtronic, Dexcom) require a prescription in the EU and US.
They are about 1/10th of a percent of the US market... hope that is enough

>Sure, but if the machine is already running, it's free.

It still has costs for admin and electricity (via extra CPU load), though I grant these could be marginal.

>Or if you can stick it in a cupboard at work/university, it's free.

This is using someone else's resources, rather dubiously ethical. I suspect IT is going to have a fit when they find out - assuming they didn't block the relevant ports in the first place.

>is there actually free cloud hosting? don't they ask for your credit card first before they offer you "credits"?

There are free plans on Azure/AWS/GCP. Asking for credit card data does not mean you are being charged, I suspect it's really more about identifying users.

It's possible to set up free plans without credit card if one has some other id (e.g. Azure's free plans via MSDN). A prepaid card should work as well.
Congratulations! Been using them for backup for years (still on the free tier though :-P) and I'm a happy customer.
Thanks, I was actually leafing through the book in question and thinking i would never find the reference. All of his books I'd like to re-read and make notes of the rabbit holes to go down. I did at one point listen to Janacek's Sinfonietta, which was interesting but not memorable for someone who has no experience classic classical music. I did read some Chekhov on the strength of Murakami's mention and that I enjoyed.

It’s not just vaccines or conspiracy theories, the dude has been walking the conservative line and spreading their rhetoric since at least 2015. He brings on “democrats” who hate the Democratic Party (e.g. Tulsi Gabbard, the Weinstein brothers) and pretends supporting UBI means he isn’t a conservative. All the while constantly bringing on right wing guests (the ratio of right wingers to people like Bernie Sanders I at least 4:1.)

He has constantly pushed the idea that transgenderism is taking over and brought people like Jordan Peterson to argue against it. everything from making fun of the number of genders (something I only ever hear conservatives talk about) to the big bathroom discussion that was had in 2015.

I don’t know if he’s paid by some right wing organization to push this narrative, I don’t necessarily think so, but I don’t like how he is painted as some centrist or moderate when he very clearly has an agenda and it lies to the right of center.

This article reads like this group of contrarian researchers have proven that they are actually right, and that the silly "establishment" scientists are all wrong.

In reality, if you don't know much about nutrition, you should really read this as you would any other contrarian group that thinks it knows better than everyone else. 99% of the time, if there is a scientific consensus which is different, it is correct, as I believe it is in this case as well.

This study has been fairly widely criticized by most people in the field that I trust.

I’ll bite, here are a few relevant observations.

I like honey bunches of oats cereal. It’s delicious. The variety I like is also ~200 calories _per cup_. That’s before adding milk of any kind. Add a little bit of milk and tip the box a bit more than usual (I imagine a lot of folks are not very precise when measuring breakfast cereal) and we’re easily sailing over 500 calories. I eat a modest 1700 calorie diet most days and I could easily crush 1,000 calories of this cereal without even feeling full.

Likewise for sandwiches. The best rated local sandwich shops near me offer a selection of (very likely) 1,000+ calorie sandwiches. They also do not list calories so my estimates are based on casually deconstructing them and plugging in constituent ingredients into MyFitnessPal ensembles with surprising results. It’s surprising because I’ve proven I can eat more than one without feeling full.

It doesn’t take a mad genius in an evil food lab somewhere underground to make food that’s guaranteed to derail a diet. The ingredients are cheap, easy, and abundant everywhere.

That’s the problem.
I think there’s a difference between a company with enormous amounts of capital buying a bunch of houses to flip, intentionally trying to drive a trend of increasing home prices to profit, and a single homeowner improving a single house and profiting primarily because of the improvements and not because he’s driving the market up massively..
