Sauteing. Frying. Well, pretty much any stove top cooking.

I mean, sure, if we want to "well technically" the hell out of it, one could probably use glass if you're careful. But one also has to consider safety and convenience.
I love intermittent fasting. It's working really well for me a couple months in.
Renting is frequently a losing activity
Yeah, at the end of last summer, I had a whole pile of excess tomatoes from the garden that I wouldn't be able to eat before they went off, so I bunged them in a very large saucepan and simmered them until they took up 1/3 the volume, and put them in hot jars. It's a fairly common way to preserve them.
The trailing 12 month return for the S&P500 is a little over 16%. Other broad-based equity indices are also substantially higher than 5%.
The difference is that the US cost is true whether you're wealthy or poor (above a certain margin). In Canada, if you make the median household income of $35k, you presumably pay proportionally less (or even less than that; I can't be bothered to look up the progressive taxation margins) in taxes, so $3500 max.
Has this ever been tested in court?
This is my big takeaway. I think running and biking can be really fun, but I've lost friends into the morass that is LetsRun. It almost always boils down to 'That person did something I think they can't do, they must be cheating, whose with me?' levels of mob justice... in the running community, no less???? It's enough to make you think that it's the sport itself that breeds the toxicity.
In the end it's always because I'm trying to force my brain to do something it doesn't want to do, that's true. But it's not necessarily because the work is shallow.

Often, the following are true at the same time:

- I tell myself that the work should take very little time, after all it's easy.

- I tell myself that the work is shallow, and not the deep work that I like.

- The actual work isn't even well defined yet!

As a result I refuse to think deeply about what to do (because it's shallow, right?), there is no chance I feel good about myself (because no matter how quick or good I do it, that's no surprise, it was small and shallow). And because I didn't actually think about it, I don't realize just how vague those few requirements I have are. And so I feel miserable, kick myself for procrastinating, and no matter how hard I push myself to start, that of course doesn't work because the problem isn't defined well enough.

So instead I try to tell myself that my work actually is fun, I can make it interesting because I'm going to take a moment to think about doing it the right way, and first I'm going to take a short walk in the park to think about it, write some thoughts down and then discuss with a stakeholder to check if what I have in mind is what they intended. And then I try to get the thing started, and usually I am then in deep work territory immediately.

United Airlines to Let Unvaccinated Workers Return
I didn't say anything about the USA, and, maybe I'm wrong, but somehow I doubt there was not people becoming homeless, after a disease, in the USA, 30 years ago.

Anyway, if you are not going to use the official indicators of inflation there is not point in discussing anything. I could tell you that my indicator is computing process per dollar and claim a terrible deflation.
similar, but i got so good at it i got used to regularly going 3-4 days without eating at all and not really noticing/caring. as a result, my metabolism is shot and losing weight has been a real challenge. everything that went in stayed in for years.
What bothers me is, people washing and scrubbing their frying pans.

I cook in stainless, and after done just put it in the sink with water. After I eat the food, maybe a half hour later, just dump the water and wipe it with a rag.

Point is, why remove the grease, why remove the seasoned crust on pan. Do people take soap and scrub brush to their bbq too?

You don't need to soap wash, or scrub a frying pan.

This sort of behaviour likely keeps leeching to a minimum, compared to vigorously scrubbing and cleaning each use.

First class Linux support is what initially drew me to Godot. I still use Windows, but I'm trying to cut away as much as I can that ties me to it, and Unity was the biggest of the lot.
Curious what your initial eating window was?
I'm in a similar boat except it's voluntary.

Focus. Especially prolonged, intense focus, has definite downsides. It's physically unhealthy and makes me insane.

I'm into a kind of self-cultivation that's sorta the opposite of focus.
This could make marathons entertaining for a change?
Some what similar for me, in the mid-2000's I was at a design agency that was moving to PHP/MySQL development. Mostly a Mac shop, but the development server was some HP thing we got from best buy for like $400. Put Red Hat on it and did nothing else, just whatever the default PHP/MySQL package was. No tuning or anything.

A little while later, Apple released the G4 xServe. We bought 2 loaded with the largest disks at the cost of several thousand dollars. But hey, OSX Server. It has PHP & MySQL and is rack mountable, etc. We also used them for file servers for all the design files.

Got all of our development sites migrated over and the performance was noticeable worse. The HP was at least 4 times faster serving up the sites. It was amazing.

I'm not clear on the suicide. Usually when men commit suicide, it is not survivable. I don't see how jumping into an an empty LA river channel would be considered "unsurvivable." Standing at the brink, I'd expect someone like him to realize, "this is no good... I might survive." Isn't it possible he was pushed? He did have future plans to deliver lunch to his wife.
I wish it was written in simple C89 with benign bits of c99/c11 (high level languages would call the engine API using their ABI generic interface, for instance ctype with python).

That said, builds of game binaries is challenging for linux based OSes to maximize compatibility among distros and in time (pure ELF64, all distributed binaries are "libdl-ized", pthread TLS and not ELF symbol tls, etc).
It is probably very similar to what must be done on other OSes.
Seems like you shouldn’t do that?
I started intermittent fasting in September and I thought I would do it only to lose my corona weight gains. But by now it's a lifestyle for me that has so many benefits. To be fair, breakfast was never that important to me. I typically start the day with a few cups of coffee with milk and going to black coffee without milk was and is funnily the biggest price I have to pay.

To cut the junk food after 8pm has so many positive effects on my overall wellbeing - and let's face it, it is always bad food we eat at night, nobody ever comes up at 10:30pm "hey look at that nice apple."

I'll turn 47 next week and I have an almost perfect BMI again - something I hadn't had for almost ten years of so. And I still eat too much cake and chocolate in the afternoon and don't really starve overall. The only thing I can't get used too is the black coffee in the morning but that's a small price to pay.

Intermetting fasting is not a diet, it's a lifestyle and that's why it works so well. So overall I can just recommend it.
Did we skip cast iron? Iron leeching into your food is actually a good thing. There are several brands of excellent cast iron cooking products which should be safe. Staub is one I like.
Very interesting discovery. Can you share a screenshot?
Many people like exercising just before they eat, especially if you're doing weight training. However, if you're _performing_, instead of exercising (like running a race) then you'll likely want to eat before you start.
If you're adopting a rescue animal, there is no environmental argument. My dog was bred for racing, a cruel and violent industry that throws the dogs away like garbage when they are no longer used. I don't think there's any ethical argument to be made against adopting a dog like that.

If people giving their cats cat food is enough to make you question your commitment to vegetarianism, maybe you're not really that committed? You should do things for yourself, and base their value on the decisions of others

I've used IF now for a few years and have enjoyed the benefits. I usually only eat dinner. Three observations.

1. It's not for everyone. Give it a try and see if it works.
2. Drink lots of water.
3. Try having a salad or a plate of veggies 20mins before eating your dinner. That helps me avoid over-eating.
Analyzing Weapons of the War in Ukraine
One of the simplest hacks is to consume a small amount of grapefruit juice with any meal that contains carbs. The naringenin in grapefruit keeps your blood-sugar (and therefore insulin) levels low.

Do NOT do this if you are diabetic or on other meds like statins.
I also like "stuffing my face" and I can highly recommend sticking to low calorie density foods. For example, I buy bags of frozen vegetables and add them to whatever other main course I'm having. You barely consume any calories, they contain a lot of micronutrients and the volume is enough for you to feel full. There are other similar foods if mixed veggies are not your thing.

As a runner I love that running is a true meritocracy. Sure, some people can afford better recovery tools etc but performance is the true test.

Someone cheating sucks, but nobody deserves to be mobbed and totally ruined.

It’s usually people at the “local elite” level as well. The pros who actually make a living running could never get away with it… it’s just people being vain, who in most cases have legitimate talent but feel so much pressure to perform.

Nobody is getting rich by cheating. They are primarily cheating themselves. Driving them into the ground helps nobody.
Since I have moderate ADHD, I am currently in the process of implementing routines in my life.

I noticed I lose a lot of mental energy, because of lack of routines. This is especially important for shallow work. Like paperwork, phone calls any sort of action in my daily life that is inevitable and recurring.

Those tasks are annoying and I usually ignore them until the last day. I noticed that during the time I'm not doing it, it's still in the back of my mind and prevent me from diving deep into my real work.

For shallow work I reminded myself of what The Merovingian in The Matrix said:

"If we never take our time, how can we ever have time?"

We have to do the shallow work there is no way around it. If it takes 30 minutes now, it will at least take 30 minutes later. But the longer you wait, the longer it stays in the back of your mind keeping you away from the cool work. I had to make myself conscious about it.

It sounds very childish I must admit, but I have these issues and routines are the only way for me to solve them.
I’ve been doing intermittent fasting (time restricted feeding) with 16:8 (I do at least 16 hours fasting and at most 8 hours feeding window everyday) for several years. It’s more convenient (as with others, I find skipping breakfast easy) and makes night times easier in a few ways (fall asleep fast, have a good sleep, etc.). Social outings in the evening could be an issue since I stop eating by around 6, but it’s not a big deal to break the rule sometimes. If I want to, I can easily compensate by eating a little later the next day.

With intermittent fasting, I didn’t lose any weight at all! I learned that weight management is about what you eat and how much you eat. A reduced feeding window can help in reducing calorie intake. But I do continue it because of the convenience and because I’ve read that it’s helpful in different ways not to be stuffing the body with food for a long time during the day.

I recommend this method of IF to people, and tell them to start with 14:10 or even 13:11, and then build up from there. I’ve heard from some people that they suffer from acidity when doing IF. I haven’t had that issue.
>>a parallel algorithm may well be in the “worth it to implement” category for Haskell

>>“no way that we can make it work” category for some lower level language.

> I disagree. It is mainly a matter of having libraries available that makes it easy. If a library was made for Haskell that makes parallel algorithms easy to implement a similar library could be made for C++ or whatever to do the same thing.

This does not match my experience. Haskell encourages you to write code in a way that makes parallelism much easier and less likely to bite you (pure functions and immutability everywhere). I've added parallelism to Haskell code that was written without really thinking about parallelism by changing 2 important lines (and trivial changes to a few places in the same file). I can't imagine it being that straightforward if the code had been in C++.
The opposite actually. I used to get hangry and be irritable all the time. I would also have blood sugar crashes if I ate carbs (hypoglycemic). Switching to 18:6 completely eliminated blood sugar issues and I am generally more docile.
> .. you would synthesize methane or 1-butanol, dimethyl ether or some other single-entity fuel ...

I agree that simple fuels makes more sense to synthesize.
Methane is simple, but way more difficult to handle than gasoline.
1-butanol and other liquids would be great, but it is not so easy to produce in scale yet, I believe.
Become snobbish and arrogant asshole. Look down on those who consume junk food. Consider yourself to be above such lowly habits. This way you can social pressure yourself for your own betterment. You might make a few enemies along the way but if you're successful enough you might make new friends who are all equally obnoxious as you have become with your new attitudes. Surround yourself with those you aspire to be. Elitism is the first step on becoming the elite. 1337 diet
I'm, sorry I came across as dismissive of exercise, I did not intend to be. Like you, I think both are important — exercise and diet.

Your comment seemed (to me) to be too dismissive of diet.

The benefits of exercise for me were better, more restful sleep, more energy, improved emotional well-being, time afforded for setting my priorities for the day, etc. But weight loss was not one of the benefits, nor did I see a significant change in my dietary habits.
I get the sense that some emphasis has been lost here.

I lost a load of weight and did it by 'eating less'.

What I was saying was anyone saying _just_ eat less, like it is some simple solution is full of shit.

I mean, if your overweight you have food control issues already like? It's not like you don't already know that eating more leads to more weight.

Op is talking about getting an oxygen tank ffs. You (the royal you) don't think they know that eating less will help them loose weight already?

What I think op is asking how do I loose weight. One could read that as, how do I eat less.

Imagine an alcoholic asked on this forum saying how do I stop been drunk all the time, can I huff some oxygen? And the top response was: just drink less.

I hope this is making sense here.

And to be clear I suggested they replace existing fluid intake with water not drink enough water to die.

Drinking a ton of water is what one might call hyperbole. I am not actually suggesting they consume a ton of water.

And regards to the weight loss it helps reduce water retention. It's not fat you will loose in three days but you will see it on the scales and you will feel better.
This is one of my biggest problems with my workflow. I use SketchUp to quickly get the general shape of the thing but then to get decent renders, it’s very difficult to recreate the model in blender accurately. Perhaps this might encourage me to stay in blender the whole time.
Another perspective for understanding GJK, one that I have not yet seen thoroughly explained, is that it's a special case of a convex quadratic program: find two points, each constrained to a respective polyhedron (e.g. intersection of halfspaces), with minimum distance between them. The constraints are linear inequalities, and the objective is convex quadratic.

>it's not a high school presentation

I agree, we can expect more from the presenters here.

Experts are humans, experts get bored, experts can't necessarily follow your bad presentation.

Underneath it all we're smart monkeys, not robots. You can't force yourself to pay attention indefinitely. It's not in our biology.

No matter how smart you are if you hear hours of presentations in a day, you will only take home a certain maximum amount of the stuff that seemed important.

If you're a presenter, and you have something life-and-death important to say, you should repeat it, you should put it into simple words, you should use appropriate language, voice and maybe even pictures to make it clear.
What really helped me:
- getting a kitchen scale, weighting all the food and tracking it with Yazio (https://www.yazio.com/)
- intermittent fasting
- a healthy mixture of cardio / weightlifting
- stopped eating bread everyday and replacing it with oats (+ seeds)

Nothing revolutionary, however tracking everything that I eat really makes a big difference because otherwise I tend to overeat as tend to be always hungry.

Be cold. Your body burns more calories to keep your temperature.

Note, this is different from freezing. If you’re too cold, you’ll run into different problems like getting slow, getting weak, not being able to sleep, or getting ill.
Suffered with these exact issues for over a year of attempting to WFH. For years my office productivity was high and enjoyable. Then as soon as covid hit I immediately noticed an uptick in my mindless behaviour on work time. Went through a period of serious depression where my lack of productivity was a contributing factor, amongst other things. Solved the depression with medication and reframing how I view my life, but that did nothing for my productivity - I just didn't beat myself up about it anymore.

Getting an adult ADHD diagnosis is not easy or quick in my country. So how did I solve my issue? I got a programming job back in a small busy office, and I've certainly become happier and satisfied with my output.

> coverage then private method testing is giving you fake or inferior coverage

Absolutely not

Your private methods contain logic no?

Every coverage is worth

In fact I don't see any "controversy" here. Not testing private methods seems like a lousy excuse

exactly because they change less with implementation/api changes and are more "logic focused"

Sure, do test your API methods, but that might not always be easy or practical
Intermittent fasting works because you end up eating less calories. On the other hand, shifting your eating to earlier in the day while eating the same amount of calories leads to weight loss:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQThN6e4PD4

I don't have a reference to it handy, but I know Rhonda Patrick talk about this: it takes a minimum of three days fasting in humans to reproduce the effects seen in one day fasting in mice. Her theory is that their metabolism is much faster, and one day is a much bigger percentage of a mouse total life time than a human's.

I lost a lot of weight by skipping meals, but then got stuck. I then started logging my food intake, mainly to keep track of nutrients, make sure I eat adequate amount of fiber, etc... Since I was doing it I decided to be consistent and restrict my calories: my weight is linearly correlated with the amount of calories I eat. I still skip meals for convenience, because I get an energy boost and because it was hard for me to eat small meals, but I'm very conscious of my calorie intake and adjust throughout the week when I end up over or under eat.

The Ryzen 5 1600 is nearly 5 years old (Apr 2017), and the current 5600X is a little older than 1 year (Nov 2020). The 5800X refresh (X3D) is announced for Q2 2022.

Now that's still a matter of perspective. If you got an early low-end CPU like a 1600 or even a 1600AF (got mine Jan 2020) and can now upgrade to a more recent, more high-end CPU like e.g. a 5600X or even 5900X the jump is pretty nice - and you get to keep your old board+RAM. Depending on your future computational requirements that system could be useful for quite a while.
If you jump on that 5000-series CPU coming from something like Ivy Bridge, you'll still be able to use the system for the same time, but you will only have used the MoBo+RAM for a single generation. In that case the total amount of usefulness you get for your money is less, and you might be better off waiting for the upcoming socket.
