>Common wisdom says that the body goes in hunger mode if you restrict calories.

Is it common wisdom though? As far as I know common wisdom says that if you restrict calories then the blood sugar drops and that cause the body to go into hunger mode. The difference being that you can eat, say, 1000 calories of your normal diet and go into hunger mode or you can eat a diet that causes the blood sugar to be stable and not go into hunger mode. This is one of the two main reasons LCHF work so well (the other being that you are way less hungry after 1000 calories of a high fat diet than after 1000 calories of high sugar).
I don't believe the Zoom clients have separate audio streams for participants, so you likely can't just disable one stream easily. I guess it might be possible to have a browser extension inject code that detects the speaking indicator for the specific user and mutes the (entire) audio stream?
By reputation, University of Michigan has a very good engineering program. It's good enough that if you finish you can get a job anywhere else. It's kind of sad that if the school was worse more people would stay in state.

Long term I think the best bet is let people go and get experience and find a way to get them to move back later in life.
What about Seedvault that does not require rooting your phone. It is recommended for those using GrapheneOS and Calyx, but should work for other degoogled Android phones. https://github.com/seedvault-app/seedvault

I know your questions are practical, and you have not disclosed your emotional state, but I also know firsthand that shutting down a startup can be traumatic. Even as you address the practical issues, take care of yourself and do the inner work to process everything you have experienced.

I wrote a book titled "Eating Glass" specifically about the emotional journey through a failure like this [0] and put numerous chapters online for free [1]. My primary goal with the book is to help others, so I'd be happy to send you a free digital copy if that's of interest.

Good luck to you... you now possess valuable knowledge and wisdom to help you in your next venture and in life.

The remote backup store can easily choose to only store things you actually encrypted, but this isn't possible for a simple public key setup. If you wanted to get fancy, you could use a sign + encrypt setup with separate keys so the store can tell if this is a real backup from you, and not allow things to get stored unless they've got such a signature, yet it still can't actually decrypt the backups it has been given.

As a proof of concept, take a look at a Certificate Transparency log server. Most CT logs are configured to only accept certificates meeting certain criteria. They'll log any such certificates (their SLAs only apply to contractual users, but you don't need an SLA you're probably just writing one certificate to the log to see it works) but you cannot fill them with garbage because you can't make any certificates they'd accept, only the legitimate CAs can do that†

† The CAs have their own reasons not to let you produce heaps of garbage, even Let's Encrypt has finite resources and so it imposes rate limits.
Yes. Get a free version of ableton and go play with the operator synth. There also a huge amount of tutorials for that particular “soft synth”
If true, that would be an embarrassing oversight in the study as well as possibly #1 in one of those "Top 10 accidental scientific discoveries that changed everything" articles.
Quite, but I don't think GP is jumping to a conclusion. More like proposing an interesting hypothesis.
I recall in the early days of WiFi, the advice around ops circles was that if you were trying to bridge two buildings using wireless, you had to set it up in the summer, not the winter. Because the water in the leaves of deciduous trees is enough to attenuate the signal. So now you've gone from "it's working" to "we have to start over," or worse, "yeah we can't actually do this."

I’d recommend fixing your startup. Take a look at it this way, you survived one of the weirdest economic times and we are on the precipice of a massive boom.

Your problems likely fall into one of three categories with known fixes:

1) You don’t have a recurring revenue model, I’m inferring this from we did a couple hundred k in rev but eventually it didn’t work.

Solution: figure out how to move to recurring rev.

2) Your product has a fundamental problem that you aren’t fixing to deliver value for your customers.

Solution: find out why they left. Fix it. Use those customers as testimonials / references for new customers.

3) Due to economics you were unable to acquire more customers.

Solution: reinvigorate your sales team.

If you’ve survived the last two years you can survive another two in the new economics. I would recommend taking a month to three months to get your head back in the game.

It’s virtually impossible that your product is so niche that you’ve exhausted the market after a couple hundred k in rev.
The real pro-tip here is that basically everything you read on HN for which you are not an expert has the appearance of expertise and authenticity. Once you see those same people speaking on a subject which you know a lot about, you realise that HN is only actually high-expertise on tech and entrepreneurship. The users here (myself included!) are probably quite good at programming, business, and maybe project management, which gives us false confidence in our abilities in every other field that exists.
Poster probably had a series of small transactions from travelling ($5,12$,$13 etc). The bank moved the $900 to the front of the payment queue, and then every one of the smaller transactions cops the fee.

It wasn't 500% of 900, it was the sum of the overdrafts on all the previous transactions.
Lowest bidder.
> PE is untimed and no one is looking over my shoulder.

Fair enough. I suppose many programmers suffer from anxiety during those interviews.

> Plus there's a right answer---no hidden test suite.

This statement makes no sense, though.

Both Project Euler and LeetCode-type of problems have a right answer, in fact, LeetCode-type of problems have more than one right answer, making them even easier than Project Euler problems.

Also, having a hidden test suite means nothing because the (single) test used to verify the answer for a Project Euler problem is also hidden.

While people can learn to program at any age I wonder what kind of psychological experiments could tell us about old programmers vs young/kid programmers and how a developer’s mind changes over time.

For a TL;DR, here's an example: apps like Frost for Facebook won't be able to handle facebook.com links anymore. The list available at facebook.com/.well-known/assetlinks.json will decide which apps can open facebook.com links. Anything else will open in the user's default browser.
“The Complete DX7” by Howard Massey was considered the gold standard back in the day. It’s on archive.org[0]. I recommend using it with Dexed, the open source DX7 emulator[1] (unless you have a DX7 handy). There’s a lot of detail about pressing buttons on the unit, but if you can get past that, it does a pretty good job of showing how to make the types of sounds you want.

I would also argue that the adults would suddenly become a lot more curious if they knew that the experiment would be 10x the duration, and each of those stars were instead dollar bills.
There's definitely a certain uniqueness to the legalese of patent titles. At times they're simultaneously so vague, yet so oddly specific. The Dave Smith quote in the footnotes of my DX7 technical analysis (it's linked in Ken's article) provide an interesting insight into how synth companies approached patenting: "If you have a lot of patents and somebody comes after you, chances are one of your patents will overlap enough with one of their patents that you can negotiate a deal so nobody gets hurt. Whereas if you don't have anything to offer and you have nothing in your stable of patents, then you're stuck"

Some of Yamaha's FM synth patents have equally strange names. On the subject of Yamaha's FM patents, it's a shame that there isn't more information available about Norio Tomisawa, the engineer responsible for most of these designs. His name is on all of the FM patents. He played a huge role in the development of modern synthesis.
I imagine consoles, which make up the overwhelming majority of sales.
I use 4K + cheap low res monitor.

The cheap monitor is for presentations - presenting stuff on a 4K usually leads to lag and doesn't look nice for people on their laptops. It works for things like documentation/Postman. The 4K is great for side by side code/comparing, or reading PRs.

A 4K monitor often works as well as two smaller monitors, especially if you work with something like Android Studio where code is on the left and resulting design is on the right.

It is because CBT is often used by insurance companies to administer "return to work" programs for injured employees.

The insurance companies choose which therapists administer the CBT program.

The therapists that are more likely to drive their patient through to the end of the return to work program, and have their patient answer "I feel more ready to return to work" during sessions, is more likely to keep their job.

Thanks.

One of the surprising experiments for me with IF is that hunger changes for me. After I'm used to it, I rarely experience hunger outside the eating hours even when I'm losing weight.

When you did your 23:1, what was hunger like for you?
Ammonia is not super poisonous, just kind of poisonous. We routinely handle it in industrial amounts, and an ammonia leak is much less harmful than something like a hydrazine leak.

Industrial production and consumption of ammonia is the basis of the fertilizer industry. There's not many hazardous chemicals we have more experience in handling safely in bulk than this stuff.
That's the front of the sign. The back of the sign is the real secret :) I'm trying to find out if they kept the back of the sign. See the Reddit link I posted.
What is the time period for reconcilling transactions? Is it reordering them per a 24 hour period? Or is every bank settling them differently.
I'm not sure the issues is that it's ancient.

I've just recently learned that Chinese is a very "analytical" language: The meaning of something is apparently to a large degree determined by how words are combined and isn't contained so much in the separate words by themself (at least that's my uninformed understanding of that subject, as I don't speak Chinese).

So without actually understanding the context it's likely hard to translate something. But a machine does not understand things. It doesn't have world knowledge so it can't interpret things in context. (An ancient context doesn't make things simpler either of course).

You would likely need AGI with a lot of world knowledge to translate such an things. But at that point machine translation for any language would be a solved problem anyway I guess.

The other thing is: How do you look up words you don't know having a writing system based on pictures? Without a computer this seems almost impossible to me. That's a big issue with such a writing system imho.

I would be keen on trying to learn a little bit Chinese as it's for sure interesting to learn to think in a very analytical language—if the writing system wouldn't be. I have already a hard time with the German orthography, even it's my main language…

Mine failed too (cofounders dropped the ball), so I joined a seed startup (Lido) and both me and the company have grown really fast.

Having worked at larger Cos (Square, Two Sigma), company stability is way over valued. The SWE job market is so good that if one company fails, 10 more will be pining for you next day.
No idea. My buddy and I have a Phase I SBIR finishing on Friday and I think we’d need a Phase II to even get to the point of having a product. As much as I love being in the fight and taking risks, I don’t know that it’s worth working for peanuts for another two years.

The job market is hot and I have a nice project to show off. A month of studying and I could land a nice job, I feel.

Oh I'm not saying we will. I'm just saying that even taking the claimed effect at face value, it only has significance if it can hurt our genetic intelligence faster than engineering can improve it.
Your misrepresenting the data. Your first link says:

>CBT is significantly more effective than no therapy in reducing symptoms of anxiety in children and young people.

>No clear evidence indicates that one way of providing CBT is more effective than another (e.g. in a group, individually, with parents).

>CBT is no more effective than other 'active therapies' such as self-help books.
Anyone using CBT to make everything positive is doing it wrong. The guy who wrote the book on it says CBT should be used to bring your feelings into line where you think they should be. He explains what different emotions generally mean.

CBT tells you to look at the situation rationally and evaluate if you’re falling into one of many cognitive distortions humans are prone to. If you should be angry and you have the appropriate level of anger at the situation, good.

He specifically warns that using CBT to make everything good is actively harmful.
> If we can find X

Almost certainly we need to add terms into the DP state to compute X; unfortunately adding just the number of vertices doesn’t work as some triangles have two edges in which a point can be inserted to create a quadrilateral, while others only have one.

The difficulty is finding those terms, though…
Using Borg for more than a year I haven't had an issue yet. In the past I used a similar tool that had error-correction capability but the tool was buggy and slow when compared to Borg.

> The people who try to figure out the exact rules of everything they do tend to be less effective than people who figure out a strategy that works and simply execute.

I agree with this idea in general, but I think it’s prudent sometimes to ask if one has the best strategy or just a good enough strategy.

Folks who rarely or never reflect on this often end up at a (relatively low) local maximum.

In this experiment, it would probably be reflected in the results if they had a larger sample and made a combo with the black dots block award more stars. Many adults probably would not discover this, while many/most kids probably would.
Speaking from experience, you analysis is spot on and this is a very common coping method in social work as well.

It is done because otherwise in the 9/10 cases where things do not improve, you feel you have failed. Much easier if the client fails you instead.

You can tell yourself, "well, maybe next time they'll get better -- after all, it takes many relapses before people kick a drug habit!"

This is a lot easier to swallow than "Oh god this stuff barely is working at all, I'm mostly just a gigantic resource suck and the money I'm paid would be much better spent getting this person stable housing and other support--but that's a lot less attractive to tax payers."

I got out of social work when I had that realization.
Initially I coped by saying I was a "Good Person" in a helping profession, so I never looked too deeply into whether any of this horse shit actually was "evidence-based."

Every Psych 101 class should cover the current findings on efficacy of psychotherapies. But they never do, for obvious reasons.
Norway had reuse of glass bottles for decades. The pressure to switch to plastic came entirely from the drinks manufacturers over cost. Safety was never an issue.

I do front end, so that doesn't really work for me. A lot of the work is drawing up a UI in plaintext while comparing it to a design, or converting an API response into models. So I'd need one screen to view the design, one to view my code, and another to see if the results look like the design, or run the emulator.

I still close every app not involved though. It's more efficient to reopen a browser window when needed than leave it in the background (and the back of your mind).

It is a shame Adb backup is being deprecated. Even twrp now only works on some devices. Titanium backup has not been updated in so long, it still requires root and doesn't backup full data for all apps anyway.

I have been trying out seedvault which is like google backup but you can back up to cloud or locally (although i see even that is am issue on your samsung as it won't load usb keys). And for full app data backup oandbackupx, which is excellent but still requires root for full backup.

Ultimately, the only solution here is to never buy samsung android devices.
A loop not handling all the cases that can occur in system call (errors or other situations), resulting in infinite execution at 100% CPU, isn't weird at all. It's almost an everyday problem.

Almost every "thread using 100% CPU" bug I've ever debugged was due to blowing through some function that was expected to return the happy case, possibly after blocking for a while, but was instead failing.
The C++ standard committee regularly has debates about breaking the ABI. They forced it for 11, who knows if they will again.
Sure it does. When you or anyone performs an action there is a consequence. Consequences can be good or bad. When you raise the rent the consequence is people pay more for rent. The people who performed the action of raising the rent are responsible for their actions. Those actions also have the consequence that fewer people can afford rent. The increase in people that can't afford rents cause a crisis, that crisis is that people that cannot afford to live in an apartment live on the street. That has everything to do with who is responsible. The people that are responsible are the people that raise the rent. How is that not obvious?

Brutal.
However keeping up with the bleeding edge is expensive, it requires continuous maintenance and a lot of effort to sift out fads. Python is a great example of where the beeling edge is stable, and Python projects decay really quickly. I've seen 2-year-old python projects in machine learning fields environment that just can't be run any more as a practical matter because the dependencies have changed too much.
To say it less politely: To me it seems more like stoner talk.

Just curious -- how do you know this?

It's such obscure/trivial stuff (but interesting).

Seems like info you probably couldn't find. Neat to see it documented somewhere.
My advice, coming from someone who worked for a startup that called on a Wednesday at 10AM and said they were out of money after only 6 months:

Don't let it phase you. If you like startups and that kind of culture, find another.

Maybe not but low blood sugar has a high impact on hunger and can cause a slowdown of the metabolism. If you eat a normal diet but less often you get way more hungry and burn less calories. If your 1-2 meals are high on carbs you will quickly either get extreme hunger or go into starvation mode. The dreaded yo-yo effect.
Seems like some people are happy to use their intelligence to troll Vinny Troia. To each their own, I say.

This is a good point. There are several other metrics by which larger-massed animals are more efficient than smaller ones, such as oxygen usage per kg of body mass. Perhaps a similar effect is applicable to brains?

You are correct.

I don't think I used that in uni, so I can't tell you how complicated it was. It's just a nice didactic article that I found explained all the details.

In practice in 2021, you run a sshfp script on the server, and publish the output of the script on your DNS by adding a key.

If you use scripted DNS, it's a one step process, if not, a 2 step process.
If you think about it with a non-religious mind, just abstractly and without prejudice, religions are really good for controlling large populations of people of varied backgrounds and intellect.

How do you get a large populace to eat healthily?

You can either try to convince them with sound arguments and scientific studies. Or you get them to believe in your religion and tell them whatever they need to hear to get them to do it as a side effect. I'm pretty convinced that there's some other motives behind fasting in religions than healthy eating, such as natural scarcity of food during certain times etc. but if you wanted to get them to do it, this would be a great way to do it. And I don't think anyone can deny the potential health benefits of it. After all, what is Ramadan if not IF?
