Serious question about inflammation.

If studies like this are claiming this is due to inflammation, and these diets are anti-inflammatory, how does this compare to taking NSAIDs daily such as aspirin, ibuprofen, etc?

Clearly eating fruits is better than taking Advil every day, but if the issue is inflammation, I would think the Advil would have a more significant clinical effect then eating berries.

From my experience: If Slashdot is any indication, the effort required to create a burner account is enough to create a healthier environment/discourage the most thoughtless or lazy commentary and trolling. When they briefly disabled AC postings there was an overnight shift in culture and attitude. Having a ten second barrier to anonymity is different than a one second barrier.
At the risk of being too overly politically for HN, I posit that wokeness is a distraction that is amplified by people in power (mostly on the right) to try to create artificial class conflict (me vs the woke “elites”). This distracts from the real class conflicts in our society. Highly recommend the recent Citations Needed podcast about this (two part on the GOPs “Rightwing Populism” Rebrand).

I've used multiple email provider web mails (Gmail, ProtonMail, and my current provider fastmail). I have also used various clients over the years, haven't used thunderbird in a while but I still use mu4e in emacs as well as neomutt (terminal email client). In terms of feeling "smooth" the web clients have always been superior to the thunderbird, but it's been a couple years so maybe thunderbird has improved. Mu4e and neomutt are equal if not better than most web mail clients but since I always have a browser open I usually just have a web mail tab pinned. I wish I could use thunderbird, I've always liked its design, but it has a hard to describe quality which makes usage "clunky" feeling.

Of course it's frustrating to encounter condemnations of anything one identifies with, but by fulminating aggressively* on an inflammatory topic, you broke the site guidelines badly and predictably set off a wretched, hellish flamewar. Please don't do that on HN. We're trying for something different than internet default here.

* I'm sure you didn't mean to be or experience yourself as posting aggressively. The problem is that there isn't much difference between "defensive" and "aggressive". Mostly we experience ourselves doing the former and other people experience us doing the latter. Everyone functions this way, which is how we get flamewars where everyone feels like the others (a) started it, and (b) did worse.

If you think the behavior of people who do not read the article will be unchanged by yet another discussion of cancer, I think you will perhaps be surprised to learn that people who don't care about privacy don't care about yet another discussion of government overreach and people who don't care about politics remain unbothered by news articles decrying fascism or communism.

The article was quite interesting, and showed some very good points. When you use words like "when people now see articles like this" to completely dismiss its very point, it ceases to feel like good faith discussion of anything besides some personal agenda you related to an article keyword.

I agree with your sentiment, but fear of asbestos is also another danger that has been highly exaggerated. Asbestos is only dangerous if it is particularized and inhaled in high quantities over a period of time. Men that changed breaks that had asbestos in them and thus lots of asbestos dust or men who worked on installing asbestos pipes and were cutting them all the time, were the ones who got cancer (or their wives who washed their dusty clothes). The fear of asbestos objects or buildings that have, say asbestos insulation on pipes in the basement, is not reasonable and another example of overblown fear that probably cost the US a hundreds of billions dollars (wild guess) that could have been spent much more productively on something else.

I've been researching this and the sellers of this assert they are selling licenses that are left over and entirely legitimate.

Believe it or not, trying to tell people they don't want someone else just a voice command or push button away in the case of an accident, is actually a hard sell. It might be seen as a privacy invasion to some (whether it's used as such in practice is another story), but to others it might actually save their life.
Opel and BMW are lagging quite a bit. IMHO their current strategy has them on a path where they won't survive the transition. Too little too late basically.

Daimler has a few expensive models on the market but is not really selling those in large volume. Their recently announced cars seem nice though and their focus on the luxury segment and brand actually makes a lot of sense. And since they are not about high volume sales and selling at a premium, they can get away with cost disadvantages more easily.

The ones that are in better shape are all associated with the Volkswagen group (Porsche, Audi, VW itself) thanks to VW having gotten aggressive on this topic a bit earlier (courtesy of Diesel gate). And even those still have some catching up to do.

IMHO the real issue for these manufacturers is not even Tesla but the coming influx of cheap Chinese imports. So far, manufacturers have been able to pretend it's all about the luxury segment and sell a few EVs at a premium (typically above their ICE pricing). Once EV prices dip below 20K euro, it's a different game. That might happen in 2022 already. Chinese manufacturers have a lot of very interesting EVs already on the roads in China that are being produced in volume. Exporting those to the US and Europe is more a question of when than if.

It's a repeat of what happened when Japanese cars started competing in the 1980s. It forced everybody else to up their game. This time around, the required changes are more disruptive. Everything from supply chain management, car design, software development, sales, etc. is in need of change. It's about cost and margins. The question is not whether manufacturers can produce EVs but whether they can do so at the right price point and still make a profit. What's on the market right now is a bit challenged on that front. Except for a handful of manufacturers.

Everybody's discussing the effects of what's happening, but where did this demand come from? Sure, a bunch of people sold cars during Covid last year (but those cars went to someone else, they weren't destroyed), but lots of people who WFHd last year are still WFH this year.

Why does everyone suddenly need a car? Cheap credit is definitely at least in part fueling it.

Actually first version of Godot was made in 2007 so it's only a couple years older than Unity (2005) and only 9 years older than Unreal (1998). It's probably cleaner conceptually though as it was pretty simple when it was open sourced (2014 I think?), so less baggage to fix, versus something like Torque3d which never really caught on after it was open sourced, despite being more fully featured than Godot at the time.

They should define death-aware career plan a little better. This seems to be an investment driven piece for someone with plenty of money.

I don't feel NFTs or crypto are logical choices, feels like gambling. I would rather incrementally invest in ETFs, and/or start a business that I have a little more control over. If you want work to be worthwhile, consider helping non-profits. You will be paid less, but the goal is altruistic, not money.
You're missing the fact that enough people see value there to be willing to pay for it, therefore it might be worth selling it. That's all "value" is.

I do agree that it's stupid. But it's the buyers who are stupid, not the sellers.
While I certainly saw them coming a mile away, the rise of sites like Squarespace and Wix still unnerves me a little bit.

While I do primarily backend data work these days, I spent a lot of the early 2000's working for an agency that built websites for people and companies. Many of which would have been simple enough to throw together in Squarespace.

I'd always thought I could fall back into building websites if this didn't work out, but I feel like that's falling out as my backup plan. I still try to keep up on CSS and JS though, just incase.
The canonical example that I can think of is the entire "race condition" bug class. But also TOCTTOU, caching bugs, &c. (all of which are arguably also in the race condition category.)

Admittedly I haven't followed Svelte super closely, but isn't "no JSX/TSX" kind of a major ideological point? From reading the intro docs, it seems like separation of js/css/html is a selling point. JSX/TSX would contradict that, no?

Just wondering if my read is correct or if there's some other reason it's been left off the table.

https://github.com/commercialhaskell/rio#language-extensions which is cited as an example in simplehaskell's page on recommendations.
https://www.simplehaskell.org/language-extensions.html

From what I've touched of Haskell, I'd think e.g. OverloadedStrings makes Haskell simpler to use than leaving it out. (And OverloadedStrings certianly doesn't seem ego-inducing).

Simple Haskell's page on extensions also isn't advocating for anything too concrete. Just an emphasis on pragmatic, simple to maintain code.

IHP's landing page even claims "Don't worry, you don't need to know much about Haskell to get started, you'll learn it along the way". This seems to be in the spirit of simple Haskell, although I'd be curious to hear about what parts seem not-simple.
It's not a false claim. I stated an opinion. It's not even that controversial, it's a very common complaint about signal. The primary value in open source is it gives control over the code to the user. Signal releases their code, but actively prevents it's user from actually getting any benefit from it. A messenger that exists but you can't use to communicate with anyone has no value over a messenger that doesn't exist. A signal client that you can modify but then can't use to communicate with anyone else has the same issue. The protocol should be considered 'open source'. But for an encryption system, that's the bare minimum so it's not that impressive.
Ask HN: How to Quit a Solo Developer Role?
I am currently the solo developer for a small team where I run the technology side of the company.

I work directly under the CEO who has zero technical background. He is constantly asking me for status updates, setting my priorities for me, and overall tends to micromanage. When I worked from home, he would ping me for updates throughout the day, sometimes even scheduling a second end-of-day standup. Now he expects me to work in-office because it's "better for rapid communication", which really just means he can micromanage more easily.

This morning I accepted a great offer for a remote position at a more established tech company.

My current predicament is that my boss will likely be completely screwed when I leave. To make matters worse, our account manager put in her notice yesterday, so he's already scrambling to find a replacement for her.

I am curious how to go about this transition without burning a bridge and screwing over my current team. One month isn't nearly enough to transition somebody into my role.

Has anybody experienced leaving a solo role without screwing over their company?
Easy. You hire young, hungry grads who will bust ass for relatively little, and when they burn out you let them leave. Wash, rinse, repeat, profit.
Yes, but I thought we're talking about the seriously infections, because that one's are and will be the ones who will also experience persistent long COVID symptoms. And it was my point that the ones who can't breathe are really impaired in their lung's function and not, as you say, it's because of stress.
Even if the most cases are mild and the guys start to experience problems because of stress or psychological reasons, it's still the works of that Virus.

They also found thrombosed capillaries on the surface of the brain and showed less bloodflow in that regions and some starting damage of the brain substance. That may cause tiredness and all the other symptoms which may be interpreted as psychological biased
You're both underestimating the problem and overestimating the individual.

> It has always been difficult for antivaxxers to find work, particularly in healthcare or education.

This is incorrect.

In the U.S., there have never been any nationwide employment requirements for vaccination before the (currently blocked) Executive Order. During some pandemics, there were brief requirements at some local and municipal levels, but these were not nationwide or particularly widespread.

Mandatory vaccinations have existed for students, but not teachers, and certainly not healthcare workers. And certainly not workers in general.

Moreover the ease of getting exemptions meant that in some areas - like Marin County - more than 50% of students were not vaccinated against things like measles during the height of the anti-vaccine movement in the 2000-2015 period. However this was primarily limited to a few wealthy, coastal counties and was not a nationwide phenomena.

The fact of the matter is that there was never a big movement to not get vaccinations up until now either. Except for some hippie areas and perhaps some small religious groups like the Amish, vaccines were not a political thing or a contentious thing. Thus there was no point to even having big mandates.

But retconning this to just pretend that mandatory vaccines for employment were common in the past is incorrect. It's just not the case that the debate was already settled -- it was only settled for vaccines for school kids with a generous opt-out policy.

Articles like this are nice for picking out ideas to incorporate into your own system. I try to avoid reading much "productivity porn" because it gets repetitive and what captures your attention is the novelty of an idea rather than its effectiveness.

There's no system that works for everyone. You have to develop your own, and it will evolve because you change. I started journaling over 10 years ago - it was a simple "daily log" that I only wrote in occasionally. Over time I got more prolific and proficient at it. The structure of that journal became more complex, with different journals for day-job vs personal, multiple levels of summary vs detail planning/notes/ideas, and links between them. I've had to refactor that structure and the taxonomy of tags many times. And much like he describes here, I ended up adding cheatsheets and Q&A and dev templates. *There's no way I'd recommend this system to a beginner.* You have to build your own system according to where you're at in your journey.
This is great. Two questions:

1. Could I have “code” in subsequent sheets to manipulate data coming in through the form and output results.

2. Could you embed questions in an android app? If you could I would immediately have a lot of use for this.

It's not clear to me if you're arguing just about warnings on coffee or if you're arguing that all warning labels are useless.

>The fact that every coffee shop in California is still open, despite people being warned for years that they sell products that cause cancer. The vast majority of people clearly do not care about the warning.

Or they care, but have balanced the risks vs. their enjoyment of coffee. But they may see a warning on, for example, olive oil which contains lead, and decide to buy another product.

>putting unsupported warnings on things?

What do you mean by unsupported here? As in, not supported by science? Or by the people? Because I'm pretty sure it's well supported by science that certain products are carcinogenic and that consuming them, unsurprisingly, isn't very good. We can argue about what thresholds constitute a tangible risk, for sure, but either way the fact that some things cause cancer is surely considered "supported".

>that don't need warning about

Same question -- just referring to coffee or all labels on everything? I agree with this if you're just referring to coffee, but there are certainly labels that I do pay attention to and consider a warning useful.

I think there's a happy middle-ground here. If my favorite juice has lead, I want to know. If my favorite coffee shop has a 1 in 10,000,000 of causing cancer, I probably don't need the warning each day.
