I do not have access to the article so difficult to say but they do specify "community-dwelling" which I believe means they were in something like assisted living facilities.

This would make data collection on food intake much easier since the specific meals would be prepared by the facility and they must have records of which resident had which meal.

While these are super interesting headlines, I think the chances of some hidden driver affecting animal protein intake is very likely. E.g., it is not uncommon for geriatric individuals to be unable to consume specific foods or have doctors specifically restrict their diets due to heart disease, blood pressure, cholesterol or any number of other factors.

Without detailed analysis of confounding health factors, I would not read this as prescriptive. In fact, animal protein intake may be even be a trailing indicator.
Steam Deck is just a handheld PC, I'm not sure what support the engine developers would need besides being able to understand the built-in controls.
It's not surprising that Microsoft's developer team is the one gathering goodwill, and it's not because they just happen to be staffed by good people. Microsoft bet against open source and lost, and they were watching themselves lose developer mindshare in real time with the rise of GitHub and open source languages/runtimes like Python, Node.js and Ruby, most of which run better and are easier to use (especially with native addons) in Linux and Unix (incl. macOS.) So suddenly you see VS Code, WSL, Windows Terminal, Azure, .NET Core, POSIX semantics in the Windows API, and so on, all aimed at keeping developers (but not end-users) running Windows on bare-metal, or at least using Microsoft cross-platform software in place of non-Microsoft cross-platform software.

On the other hand, Windows, which is absolutely dominant among end-users, is the one employing dark patterns because they know it isn't under threat. These aren't coincidences.
It only looks messy. It’s not particularly difficult to read, and with what it’s expressing there’s really no way of expressing it in shorter terms. “A method on an Option[T] named Map, generic over type U, taking one argument, a function from a T to a U, and returning an Option[U].”

Mind you, I wouldn’t mind colons and arrows as separators which I think make it easier to read; here’s what it’d look like in a somewhat more Rust-like syntax:

fn Map<U: any>(self: Option<T>, f: fn(a: T) -> U) -> Option<U> { ... }

I would also note that signatures like these are mostly found in foundational types; they take a bit more effort and practice to write, but you don’t often have to do so; and have the outcome that the API is more pleasant to use—no more interface objects and downcasting everywhere, in Go terms.
Food studies are always all over the place.

The only real consistency is that eating loads of processed food (think chips/soda) is strongly correlated with health issues.

It’s not necessarily meaningless, but that doesn’t mean it’s not absolute rubbish, in reality. People can find meaningful, useful, comfort in anything. I’ve seen people who put clovers in their wallets, rocks/crystals in their pockets/necklaces, perfumes/oils, wear special clothes/socks, etc. It doesn’t mean those items are anything but those items. The thoughts of those items is what’s magical, not the items themselves. In fact, physical existence isn’t even required!

> I find people like you unpleasant to be around because I value competency in my peers, so I tend to ignore you socially too, but outside of that I have no opinion on your choices.

I think you have to be really careful about this. Sometimes people's work behavior is not a direct, "FU this is me and I'm proud of it!" attitude. Sometimes it's a reflection on depression, personal issues you don't know about, and even someone just being lost because they know they don't know something, but don't know what they don't know.

Sometimes the best thing is for you to directly engage with them. You might learn a few things you didn't realize.

I absolutely believe in this after working both ways. With feature branches I would waste time rebasing, resolving merge conflicts, to then come up with the perfect pile of commit messages before sharing with the team. Committing to master forces early collaboration & tighter feedback loops.

Is a state legally allowed to search and seize private post if something is against state law that isn’t against federal law? Or is that one reason the postal service is federal?
Here's the data on Ireland, and your suspicions are correct. It's not anchored in any fact. We're in a world where Rolling Stone and CNN will parrot a completely false story about a mass of gunshot victims in rural Oklahoma (because that makes sense....?????? How many shootings do you think happen in rural OK) being blocked from ICUs by an initial mass of ivermectin victims.....

The fear-mongering in the Irish press was clearly intended to drive behavior, rather than inform with real facts.

I get what you mean, and I personally rarely write generics, but when I need them they're great. I think that a good rule of thumb that would be easy to implement and review would be "no generics outside of libraries". This way, you get your type-safe containers, your application code doesn't get much more complex than before, and if you want to introduce generics, you have to really think about it.

My first project at GE was working with an engineer who was trying to classify the degradation rate on a bunch of used engine parts to free up warehouse space--saving the company $20MM.

She told me none of it matters (after working on it for years) when management had just written off $16B for Baker Hughes (a lemon of a company they purchased that had to be sold off for pennies). It was a prelude to a string of even more meaningless work.
You seem to be adopting a double standard here. It is true that materialists cannot explain how minds work, but dualists can do no better, and, furthermore, they cannot point to any remotely similar phenomenon that is non-physical. Your claim that "there is no angle to it where it can ever give in" is just as much a speculative intuition as the claim that minds are the result of physical processes.

The position you take in your last paragraph is one of solipsistic skepticism. Do you approach every epistemic issue with the same level of skepticism, or do you only adopt it with regard to the proposition that minds are the result of physical processes?
> P.S. There's a lot of talk on this forum about Typescript and how great it is, but very often in my months of trying to write this application, I couldn't get the types to line up through the stack, and just had to use generics.

When you say "use generics" do you mean typing things as `any` ?
I met my ex on a stock trading discord. Similarly she approached me. Online seems a better place to meet people, I just don't think tinder attracts the quality of people I'm interested in given the apps focus on hookups.
“Embarrassingly parallel execution” means that it parallelizes (only) problems that are embarrassingly parallel. The meaning is clear — if you want to be really pedantic about it, problems are “parallelizable” and only execution is “parallel”, but “embarrassingly parallelizable” is too many syllables.

This sounds like the sort of thing with similar prevalence to things like running a Tor node. This might even be an example the other way, when your game server or what have you has thousands of peer connections and this thing breaks it by misinterprets that as a denial of service too.
Not really? People across the planet have had predominantly or exclusively vegetarian (not necessarily vegan) diets since forever and have been perfectly healthy.

I actually do agree with you while still finding Penrose persuasive. I don't know how earnestly he adheres to the "quantum perturbations in nanotubules" (if I've gotten the incantation right) for which he credits someone else as a good try at a solution, and I have the impression he holds it as an open question.

I think the appeal (or interest, to me) from the phenomenology angle, is that we understand things by being in the world, having needs and desires, and some agency to obtain them. We understand a hammer because we can imagine a need to drive a spike, we can see that it can be held in our hands and be swung to drive the spike, that we have hands and a body, and that we occupy space.

All of that made me wonder if simply executing a program is sufficient for emergence of intelligence. This raises the naive question of whether adding enough sensors and actuators to the program would be necessary, or have I merely added something unnecessary to the problem? Anyway, that's the kernel of doubt that I have that a computer program alone is sufficient for the emergence of an intelligence, that is, an agent with the capacity to understand.

Maybe you misread the article. Plant protein is inversely correlated with mortality in middle-aged adults. They focused entirely on patients with a mean age of 75 years.

I had a realization the other day that nobody on the planet asked to be here. We all just appear one day and are forced to do what we can with what we have. No instruction manual, no control over our inherited reality, physical, mental or material. It stuck with me for several days and it has led to a surprising amount of psychic relief. I am finding myself more forgiving of myself and others.
Maybe it’s fine to put code reviews later in the process but I think I’d be worried about the frequency of changes that break the build. Is there some way to avoid that? Debugging failures only to discover that the build was broken (in the sense of a test failure, but also could be a JavaScript syntax error I suppose) underneath you is surely bad for velocity.

Certainly I think there are times when having multiple people pushing straight to a feature branch is good but I’d worry about a codebase where features touch so much of the same stuff that merges are so painful. But maybe OP’s environment is just alien to me and there are reasons for both of these things.
God I hope it doesn't take long before it sparks a counterculture of densely informational creative prose.

Do you give feedback to these employees? Because if you work 10 hours a week and yet every review the feedback is "good" with no indication of any need for improvement I don't see why they should try doing more.

Yeah, but you have to go up quite a few levels to make 10x the pay. E.g., a Google L5 makes (ballpark) $360k. An L8 makes (ballpark) $1M. That's only 3x higher, and you probably need a lot more than 10x impact to go L5 -> L8. An L4 makes $270k, still within ~1/4 of an L8. L3s are paid almost 200k, which is still ~1/5 of an L8.

I don't know what L9s or 10s are paid; it's probably highly variable and the total number are probably a handful.
Side note - I wish people didn’t use percentages in these stories. It really means almost nothing to me. If you went from X to 2X but 5X is actually market rate then are you really doing any good? I don’t think so…
This definitely will not be misused by abusive men.
I've found that to be a great middle ground on most teams.

If you want to stretch it a little more, you could selectively do post-merge reviews for things that might be low risk (ie a UI change that's behind a feature flag that only your team sees), and keep riskier changes (like a big refactor, a data migration, etc) on the pre-merge review flow.
It’s a very different world today than when Microsoft went through antitrust proceedings for IE6. Regulatory authorities worldwide are getting more toothless by the day.

I enjoy my work, but I also don't get a whole lot of it. So I make mountains out of molehills.

As for what I do? I work in basically a state run monopoly that is so big and has such large teams that managers oftentimes think you're awesome if nobody has anything negative to say.
Hmm I get what you’re saying of course but in certain domains (think B2B SaaS) you might be running some compute-intensive stuff enough to where the differential is an issue.

Imagine 95% of your workload can run in 100 megs but 5% requires 1000 megs. You can overprovision of course but in a world of containers if you can isolate the 5% and route it you’re going to have a lot less in terms of operational headaches
Aren't you assuming that code quality suffers? I don't think that we can assume that in regards to code on this topic. OP's company appears to happily agree that the product is on-spec.
Ah, that defrag :(
Absolutely agree. The point of microservices is to separate the concerns from an organizational point of view, not for technical reasons.

Most of the advantages attributed to microservices can also be achieved with a monolith architecture using a sane and rigorous design.

I find it frustrating at work when I see teams of 50 people having issues coordinating work because they have a monolith, while we often unnecessarily spread a team of 5 people among 10 microservices.
Office365 being web/cloud based is a big difference this time.

Can this be extended to arbitrary pharmaceutical drugs that are approved on the federal level?
In theory the code could be made reusable, but it probably was structured in a very much un-reusable way and will never be available to other projects.

Everything has to be some giant monolithic integration because if you engineered it properly as a reusable library, it wouldn't provide any business benefit to the authors. It's almost a form of closed source by obfuscation through over-integrated design.
In cases like that the correct answer is to detect weird behavior and call the customer on the phone to ask what's going on. If they say they know what it is because they're running Tor or hosting Ubuntu ISOs or playing P2P games or whatever, you don't have to do anything.

If they say they have no idea what you're talking about, you get to tell them they're infected, so they actually fix it instead of typing their bank password into the infected box the next week because you automatically removed the "huh, internet's slow" that might have led them to investigate it otherwise.
All-cause mortality is so multivariate, and so easily confounded, that an uncontrolled study of only 1,139 people in one region is meaningless.

As others have pointed out, food diaries are BS. Did all 1,139 people weigh their meat before they ate it? They mention "food frequency questionnaires" ("let's see, that's 157 grams of chicken today").
> I really like how they are pushing so hard for video, while struggling to display more than a thousand text comments or even links.

I don't know that this is the case of course, but can I blame Facebook? They "pivoted to video" while lying about their metrics and it wouldn't surprise me if the rest of Silicon Valley is like "Hey, they're making lots of money, why don't we do what they're doing?"

Not financial advice, 600k isn’t enough unless you live in a low cost of living region.

Lazy: Send it to Gemini, buy 600k worth of GUSD, loan it on their Lend program and collect 8%pa compounded monthly. Collect 48k GUSD a year. Convert that back to bank dollars every month. Live your life.

Risky: Send it to Gemini, buy 600k DAI. Send it to ethereum chain. Buy $200 of ether that you will spend on gas.
Swap half the DAI for USDC using a DEX. Deposit 300k/300k in a liquidity pool DAI/USDC and collect 18-20%pa in trade fees. Withdraw collateral every month by redeeming the liquidity provider tokens.
If you wish to save gas fees, use something like polygon bridge to move it to the Polygon chain. Do LP deposits there instead.

Crazy: buy 12 Bitcoin on Gemini. Store it on a hardware wallet. Sell A fraction every few months to live. Never sell it all in one shot.

Soy makes guys grow bitch tits (gyno). I know everybody says "oh studies don't show that" but I've talked to guys who ate pretty large amounts trying to go vegetarian and hit high (120+ grams/day) protein intake at reasonable calories and who it happened to. It also tastes awful and the burgers made from it are super processed and unhealthy. A ton of beef may not be super healthy either but a ground beef patty is way healthier than some estrogen laced junk.

Looks like cricket protein per calorie is like half chicken breast and also worse than most protein powders so not sure why I'd want it. If there's a bug that's higher protein per calorie and cheaper I'd be open to replacing my powder but I don't want the feds telling me what to eat.
