M1 Mac Minis are cheaper than a CPU upgrade in many cases and offer native features and performance. I went almost a decade without recommending anything Apple, but the latest lineup is fantastic.

Not including work issued devices, I've got all AMD hardware right now. Anything prior to Intel 10th gen suffered from needing performance-tanking mitigations for their security design, and I haven't spent enough time digging in to find out if they've actually fixed it or are cheating again somehow. That was an expensive disaster, and we had to lifecycle a lot of Intel hardware early to make up for it.

Although I wish Epyc had been more available at the time, I'll say that replacing my PowerEdges with a single Threadripper has been worth it. I'd probably build around a high end Ryzen if I did it again, but there were conveniences to having NUMA on a single die. Just need an ASRock Rack motherboard if you want IPMI.
I'm a nerd with more money than sense, what can I say! I trust the output of the device I have, and I do truly believe I am burning 3300kcal/day just standing at my desk, walking to the bathroom, etc. I eat 3500kcal/day pretty regularly, and maintain weight.

If you can target enough of a deficit and not be hungry, good for you. It's hard for most people. The input data is wrong, the output data is wrong/unknown, and one can only be hungry for so long.
As an untrained but interested bystander/hobbyist, the scores engraved by Lilypond are orders of magnitude better than those produced by the mainstream WYSIWYG editors, in the same "I deeply care about typography" sort of way that you get from documents produced with TeX but not Word or Google Docs.

My ex-wife is a musician and a music teacher, and (especially for her teaching job) ends up writing a fair bit of sheet music. She used one of the point-and-click scorewriters for a while (Sibelius maybe?) and was thorough displeased with both the output quality and the editing process itself. After some poking and prodding, and getting her to overcome the "but it's writing code!" barrier, she fell in love with how productive it is and still uses it, some 15 years later. It was pretty interesting to see somebody with no exposure to the software world develop their own habits and code style.
Research Suggests Relationship Between Computer Chips and Gene Synthesis
The only thing that works for me: Count calories, and do some physical exercise (doesn’t have to be a lot) to prevent your metabolic rate from going down with the caloric restrictipn (and for general health). With calorie counting, you can pace your weight loss to a level that works for you.
You are talking completely past him and ignore his points. At no point he said that "outrun a bad diet". You are arguing against strawman.
I was leaving aside the gym trip:

> A 30 minute workout, two or three times a week is sufficient (i.e. hit 6 or 7 machines, for 3 sets each)

...which was separate from the hour+ walk every day.
If you care about your data being harvested it's not the same though. This one actually declines tracking. I don't care about cookies often accepts all tracking for you.
This is a super important point, but someone touched on it above. A major part of fitness is the lifestyle aspect, whether it's finding activities that combine social activity and fitness (sports!) or taking things you do already (like commuting) and making those physical (living where you can walk to commute instead of driving). None of this is easy, and yes, this lifestyle means you have to want to make the change. But for me I'm not trying to stay fit to look fancy or buy new clothes. I'm trying to stay fit and build patterns at 30 so that I'm still able to learn new tech and play with my great grand kids at 90. I look at this as investing in my future and my investment in fitness now is going to pay more mental health dividends than any amount of money. Speaking of course from a position where I have the privilege to make these choices.
Mine is pronounced enough that I've had romantic partners make a mental note to have snacks for me. It's pretty incredible, I can feel myself getting irritable, and within 15 minutes of eating something my body just relaxes and I'm back to being my charitable self.
Careful with your caffeine consumption if you start IF. Many people find they are more irritable on IF and fail to realize that their body processes coffee differently when they have an empty stomach.
Here is a good chart illustrating the heterogeneity of goods/services inflation[0] over the last 20 years. I would love to see it extended into 2022.

Technological progress is often deflationary in ways we can’t easily quantify, even after hedonic adjustments[1]. A $500 smartphone today would have cost tens of thousands of dollars only a few years ago, if it were even possible to manufacture then. Some people estimate that a smartphone’s total computing power would have been worth several million dollars in the 1990s[2]. Yet someone with a $500 smartphone today doesn’t consider themselves a millionaire relative to someone from the 90s; we simply cannot quantify the monetary effect of having millions of dollars of 1990s computing power in our pockets[*].

Similarly, a new $40,000 Honda Accord is superior in every way (power, amenities, ride quality, etc.) to a $200,000 Rolls Royce from the 90s. Conversely, if a car identical to a 90s Rolls were manufactured in modern factories, it would probably cost far less to manufacture than the Accord, owing to its relative technological simplicity. Yet we don’t typically consider middle class Accord owners in 2022 as driving around in cars only attainable to millionaires 30 years ago, even though this is objectively the case.

[*] I guess the “realistic” 1990s equivalent to a smartphone would be a team of personal assistants who could immediately look up any fact from reference materials, simultaneously call multiple businesses for information about their stock or hours, give real-time driving directions via carphone while reading a map, etc. Definitely more realistic than magically stuffing mainframes worth of compute in your pocket, but still only something that the extremely wealthy could afford.
You are off by a factor 1000. 80 PWh is 730 billion times 110 kWh.
> Aviation is 30-40 years behind in fuels (they still use leaded gas.).

In small aeroplanes yes, I don't think Jet-A has lead in though.
> The surprising part was that it took the science guy 10 hours to calculate the calories for 5 food items ? Would be nice if we could get that down to minutes and accessible to personal consumers.

Bomb Calorimetery is a PITA, I almost did a startup around this. The researcher in the video has a fairly manual one, there are automated setups that reduce this time, but they still cost $40k+ and require oxygen tanks, etc.

The even more difficult case for calories is something like a steak: how marbled is it? I could see some computer vision approach working.
That's your choice, but in a space mission or in a self-driving car I'd rather not be a casualty of move fast and break things.
The 22 yr is just playing the wrong game. He needs to take out a fixed rate mortgage, as large as possible. Then rent the property.
To be fair, any complaint was guaranteed not to reach anybody else.
“Innovation teams shouldn’t be burdened with operational concerns” Surprising how prevalent this attitude still is. It leads to large Centralized ops teams are inevitably going to be a bottleneck. If developers need to routinely create tickets with some other team to do get their work done then clearly the org is heading the wrong way. the org needs to invest in more self-service automation and ops training the developers with a mindset of reducing the size and responsibilities of their ops team rather than just hiring more ops which makes the problem worse.
Need to be careful, here.

Many “quick” weight-loss tips are not-so-healthy, if done for an extended period of time.

Also, the human body is an amazing machine. It adapts quickly to stressors. Since most “quick” weight-loss techniques are actually stressors, their effectiveness can decline, as soon as your body adapts.

As I’ve gotten older, losing weight (actually, not gaining weight) has become more difficult, but also, a lot of foods that I used to eat with impunity, now make me ill. I haven’t had ice cream in a couple of years, which is sad. I've also almost eliminated between-meal snacking.

I've always been a fan of moderate, consistent, exercise, and a moderate, varied, healthy diet, with small portions, eaten slowly (note the use of the word "moderate," there).

But I’ve heard that deliberately infecting oneself with a tapeworm works. It’s probably not as crazy as some of the stuff I've read about.
Isn't part of the point that if you are doing one meal a day you can eat until you are stuffed and still avoid excess calorie intake?

> You can fly to the border, land in front of crossing, push planes over the border and let Ukrainians do whatever they want.

That doesn't solve the real issue, which is, AGAIN, that Poland does not want those planes crossing into Ukraine from its border. Whether they fly in or roll in is utterly irrelevant.
It seems pretty unreasonable to take Vanguard’s equities return projections over the next 10 years and simultaneously ignore their inflation projection from that same source.

Equity returns and inflation are not independent and the assumptions that led to their equities prediction are embodied in their inflation prediction.
The portion advice here is so important. I had a job where I travelled, and I immediately gained 20lbs because American portions were so insanely huge and I had been trained by my parents to "eat everything on my plate".

My new strategy is calorie counting and a hard rule that at a restaurant where you don't know what's in the food, small portions, eat half or a third of the meal and then immediately get it taken or boxed up so you don't pick on it while the social aspect of the meal is happening.
Warrior Diet recommended for your dinner meal to be a meat and vegetable stew of some kind most of the time.
Your example seems to be about refined and simple carbs. Those do spike blood sugar. But a better diet would include more of complex carbs where the blood sugar doesn’t spike as badly as with a diet on processed and refined (fiber-less or low fiber) foods.
The study says they fasted for 20 hours. That's well beyond what most people do. I do a 16:8, personally (which, is really just skipping breakfast), and if I don't eat by 1:00pm (which would be 17 hours), I'm a monster.

I've been skipping breakfast for over 10 years now, so I honestly don't remember how I was previously. Maybe I should starting eating it again as an experiment.
does anyone feel like this is viz overload to senses? My brain is screaming.
My trick is to find athletic activities that are things I would do for entertainment even if they didn’t confer any training benefit. Soccer, tennis, ultimate, and climbing are my current go-tos. It’s really easy to do 7 workouts a week when it’s all stuff you want to do for fun. Like discipline is great and all, but leverage your reward mechanisms as much as you possibly can. Also, it comes with the added benefit of making more friends.
It’s only accurate if 7% inflation also persists for 10 years, which seems unlikely.
The only place aviation uses leaded gas is in the small, piston engine part of the market that represents primary training or hobbyist/personal transportation flying. In those cases, it's more like engine designs are 70 or 80 years behind current designs; and oftentimes the actual aircraft are not much younger.

There's no lead in jet fuel, and I'm just not exactly sure what you mean by aviation being "behind" in fuels in that respect. What's the leading edge supposed to be, in gas turbine technology, other than essentially kerosene?
Best practices come as an accepted way of doing things. It means not reinventing the wheel for every project.

Of course best practices can only work for problems that have already been solved. There are plenty of problems that need innovative thinking and unorthodox practices. The more brain power you can dedicate to solving those problems, the better.
Okay good to know, thanks.

Sure, you get used it. I've been using time restricted eating for years, and workout in the mornings. It was hard at first, but I guess I adapted. I rarely feel hungry and have tons of energy in the mornings. I've gotten to where I try to plan strenuous activities before my first meal because I just feel like I have a more steady state of energy.
> then you're also increasing demand of all the things the immigrants consume, which means you're increasing the demand for labour.

How much of what you consume is even produced domesticly anymore? Take a look around the room you are in. The immigrant now with more money may decide to buy themselves a iPhone and that probably helps someone in China who would like a job assembling them but it still drives down the cost of labor locally. Much of the services immigrants use domesticly will be low margin, like grocery stores and restaurants adding little to the domestic economy.
Okay that makes sense, thanks for your input.
You are right that glaze is a kind of glass.

Nevertheless, most glazes have a much more complex composition than the standard borosilicate or soda-lime glasses.

Glazes usually contain colorants and various additives that improve certain properties useful during manufacturing, which do not exist in the glasses used for vessels.

It is possible to make glazes that are perfectly safe for food contact, but historically there were many examples of glazes with harmful components.

Unless a manufacturer provides the composition of the glaze used by them, you cannot know how safe it is.

Moreover, glazes and enamels have a problem that does not exist for stainless steel vessels. The glazes or enamels may crack and expose the base material to the food. However that is somewhat mitigated by their lower price, which facilitates the replacement of the cookware.

HBO Accused of Sharing Subscriber Data with Facebook
I don't like this kind of advice, only because it sets people up to fail. If your definition of "success" is not cheating, not once, ever, for 90 days, 99% of people will fail that. Half within the first couple weeks. And if you've failed your goal such that it's 100% unattainable now, what's the point of continuing at all? What's the point of setting another 90-day goal you'll also fail at?

This might help for people with a very small, specific goal in mind - lose n pounds or y% body fat by a certain event - and who are already pretty strong and consistent mentally. But if you are trying to lose weight to look better or not have a heart attack at 40, it's not a sustainable way to approach things. It's much more sustainable, and healthier, to focus on small habits you can add over time.

If you eat fast food four times a week and have five regular cokes a day, you're much better cutting that to three sodas a day and stopping there than you are eating kale salads and protein shakes for a couple weeks before going right back to where you were. And cutting a couple sodas a day is much easier to boot.
Before anything else, one of the factors to consider is adequate hydration. Sometimes people confuse thirst as a signal of hunger for food, and then start snacking or binge eating.

As konha said, it's the government offices, providing services for registration, driver's licence, taxes, etc. It works the same way in several EU countries.

Sometimes you can just show up (and wait in a queue) but most often you make an appointment beforehand. In many states/cities, the waiting times are weeks and months long (even in my home city everything's booked a month ahead and you can see the big queues if you go in person).

People can indeed just refresh the page themselves and hope a spot opens up, but that's pretty annoying.
> I don't think the public has an appetite for that discussion.

Judging by the quick downvote I got, I'd consider you correct.

My brother-in-law does OMAD. He has discovered another advantage to it. He had to go to another city for a week for work. They put him up at a nice AirBnB, and... they gave him a $60 food per diem. $60 if you're doing 3 meals? Nice little treat, I guess. $60 if you're doing 1 meal? He eats like a king every night.

Now, in this case, it may not be helping him lose weight haha!
Re. your theory, there is the exact opposite theory that is doing the rounds.

Their key idea is that you _need_ some level of CO2 to keep the blood level acidic, otherwise even if there is plenty of O2 is available, it won't be absorbed into the blood stream. Hyperventilation, for example, results in respiratory alkalosis.

Perhaps someone knowledgeable can comment on whether this explanation makes sense.
It might be a surprise to you, but Economics 101 supply/demand models for a single good actually don't capture all the complexity of actual market behavior.

Where you say 'you increase the number of dollars but leave cheeseburger production the same' - how exactly do you do that?

I mean, there certainly are institutions that can increase the number of dollars. But those institutions can't constrain cheeseburger production to make sure it stays the same, can they? Cheeseburger makers are free to adjust their production.

So nobody's doing what you suggested - increasing dollars while holding cheeseburger production steady. Instead, they're expecting cheeseburger production to change (maybe it's changing all on its own, as people develop new cheeseburger recipes and tastes in cheeseburgers change), and they are adjusting the number of dollars to compensate.

Which, yes, suggests you are committing the lump of cheeseburger fallacy.
Why would you want to convert a PNG to PDF? I don't understand the point.
This requires batteries which are very heavy. This is not a big problem in cars, but an absolute deal breaker in aircraft. The energy consumption of a plane scales roughly with the weight, which makes efficient battery powered flight pretty much impossible.

This software runs on thousands upon thousands of voting machines around the globe. Open source or not if its security is threatened by a disk image floating around then that's not good.

i think you probably have to understand your emotional state at the moment before you tackle productivity.
One thing I’ve noticed is the things that have increased way above inflation for the past few decades are:

Medical care,
Urban Housing,
Education

These are things that disproportionately affect middle class families and below, as they are so important and a much bigger proportion of their budget.

These are also things that are sometimes referred to as a ‘right’ and are massively regulated by the government.

Whatever all that adds up to.
Revisiting Phishing Simulations
Stainless steel is better than most alternatives. Slightly off topic, but I like lower temperature cooking. Instead of frying I like to simmer food in different vegetable broths with appropriate spices.
Ah, should have read the docs, thanks!

It occurred to me after I posted that this is similar in a way to molecular dynamics simulations, which are essentially constrained sets of points (constraints like atoms have to be within a certain distance range or angle/torsion).

In those you use techniques like gradient descent (similar to Newton's method it seems) and forcefields and so on. I guess it's all numerical optimization in the end.

Still very much looking forward to Godot 4, and unless I find a framework I really like will probably stick with it, but I've been a bit down on Godot recently (been using it for just over 2 years now I think), largely in its handling of custom resources and the fact that they aren't really first class citizens and have some odd limitations. That and Godots limitations with 3D, though at least I was well aware of them beforehand.

Though if you're new to Godot or haven't used it, I'd still highly recommend it as a game engine. I tried going back to Unity a few months ago and didn't last a week (despite the fact I prefer c# to GDscript). As for Unreal, if you're an artist its probably great, but as a programmer the several times I've tried it, it didn't feel like its for me.
As the article pointed out - there was no concrete evidence beyond doubt. The stupidity of the community is to blame: you think someone is cheating and you dead set on proving it? Fine let him run next time and get real evidence. Get a drones up with some friends. Get someone to run next to him.

Anything else is just our human brains looking for patters and finding it even if it’s not there.
The English at the time counted suffering as an essential requisite of expeditions. They considered Amundsen as cheating in using dogs and Eskimo gear.

It seems significant that Shackleton's ship was so carefully constructed to endure, yet busted anyway. Amundsen used Nansen's old ship, also custom built for Arctic conditions and veteran of several expeditions, without incident. Norwegian ship builders were maybe more aware of what was needed. As I recall, an important feature was sloped sides, so that squeezing ice would lift instead of crushing it.
Meta analyses of randomized controlled trials show diet and exercise both are related to weight loss but diet has a much bigger impact.

You have to take this with a grain of salt though. My experience clinically (working in obesity clinics) is some people need exercise much more than dietary changes at least at first. But the average person wanting to lose weight will see bigger gains from dietary changes.

The type of dietary change that works best seems to depend on the person.
