If you want to increase your passive fat consumption, one option is gaining some muscle.

Muscle tissue consumes glucose even at rest. When there's no sugar left, your body will start using reserves. (That's when you will have to be careful since you might have cravings, if you are used to eating too much - slow carbs like beans or oats can help with those).

The counter intuitive part is that bulking up usually means gaining some weight at the beginning. This happens because muscle tissue is denser than fat deposits. So when you start the scale will complain. Look at your trousers instead. If they feel a bit looser, you are on the right direction.

Finally, drastic changes to your body composition are usually a bad idea. What gets lost quickly gets gained back quickly too. Slow and steady is the name of the game. If you can find some physical activity that you enjoy doing, that's the best way to bulk up. Doing 30 minutes every day is better than doing 3.5 hours once per week in one go.

Exercise (for most people) is only a complement for most people in the western world; we just don't do enough of it to "cancel out" what we eat, the calories are so easily available. "You can't outrun the fork", as they say. Your main tool for loosing weight is still your diet.

> Everyone should do their own research of course, but crypto can be compelling in that at the very least it can allow your savings to preserve their purchasing power net of inflation, something that isn’t possible with a traditional bank savings account.

This is not possible unless there's production available denominated in the stablecoin, you have to buy whatever currency they'll accept first.

Even then it's not possible to "preserve purchasing power" by keeping a currency, because that's not what currencies do - they're a medium of exchange not a store of value. Imagine if everyone held a stable currency, but one day got tired of going to McDonald's and stopped trading with them. Eventually they go out of business; now you can't buy it anymore. You have failed to store value measured in McDonald's purchases. If you want to invest to rebuild it, then it's more expensive and that's supply shock inflation. This is more or less why central banks target 2% and not 0% inflation, to encourage occasional maintenance spending.

There isn't really much that can actually store value. Gold and bitcoin obviously rely on bagholders. But in general "storing value" means compelling other people to do work for you, and they're not always going to be there to do that.
There is only one trick I am aware of, eat less while doing more stuff.

Universities claim programming is guided by computer science, because they love sticking the label "science" on non-scientific things.

The average working programmer probably doesn't care whether their work is considered a science or not. Certainly I feel like the ROI on reading CS papers in my own career has been quite low. They have a habit of sounding useful and impactful until you finish reading them and realize there's a pretty major catch. I have a degree named "computer science" but it's questionable whether it was really scientific, given that science is usually defined as a study of the natural world. There's nothing natural about computer programming, outside of perhaps complexity theory. You could argue that maybe at the edges deep learning is blurring into a study of naturalistic phenomena, but you have to be careful, otherwise you reclassify pure maths as a science and I think everyone agrees that it's a separate thing.

Industry certifications do exist. They just haven't been very successful so far. Perhaps we're going to see more focus on them if the pace of development and disruption slows down, but as it is I don't think there's much interest in them.
To accomplish...?
The amount of carbon dioxide you exhale coincides with the metabolic process in your body, not the amount of oxygen you inhale. Stop trying to 'hack' the metabolism, just eat less.
I like the way you think. If you have a pan made of food, does it matter if some food leaches to your food? For a person with iron deficiencies it's hard to argue additional iron is bad, however...

Once your iron gets into contact with oxygen, you will no longer consume iron, you will consume rust...

As you say, it's not different languages that are hard to learn but different paradigms. The languages you mention in your first paragraph are all too similar in that respect to be counted as different. You can write Fortran in all of these with more or less ease. Doing the same in Prolog or Haskell would be more of a challenge.

> You can certainly have Singletons in Godot using GDScript [1].

That is somewhat true in that you can get most of the way there with some pitfalls, from the documentation:

> Act like a singleton, since GDScript does not support global variables by design.

(of course, it's their language so they can design it however they wish)

The note sheds more light on how it works:

> Godot won't make an AutoLoad a "true" singleton as per the singleton design pattern. It may still be instanced more than once by the user if desired.

It's still nice that they added the AutoLoad section with the ability to use the checkbox to enable referencing your variables with the class name qualifier vs having to get the singleton node first. Truthfully, it should cover most use cases out there with no issues.

Also, Godot's docs are actually improving at a pretty nice rate!
"Mastered for iTunes" is the tag that means someone actually listened to it. (Technically it means the AAC file was checked that it doesn't have more clipping after encode than before it. There's a public PDF about this out there somewhere.)

If you define a bureaucracy making best practices so broadly as to capture GitHub issues, then the term becomes meaningless.

The sense the OP is trying to argue for (rather unsuccessfully) is a government bureaucracy that forbids people from deviating from those best practices. This is "serious", you see, whereas a competitive market of ideas leading to the organic development of best practices (what we have now) is "trivial".

The problem with that idea is that although it pleases people who associate government control with seriousness, the evidence it actually leads to better outcomes is mixed at best, and negative at worst. Regulatory capture is a real problem in many industries, and the attempt to fix things with regulated "best practices" can often be short term hacks that also inconveniently render more robust long term fixes illegal (finance has a lot of problems like this).

In the software world you can look at things like MISRA-C or FIPS to get a taste of what everything would look like if we don't keep systematically pushing back against these misguided people.

He got a lot of chances to stop it along the way but he continued to cheat even after multiple bans. He deserved the exposure and the humiliation. It's a shame he chose to kill himself instead of living with the consequences of his actions but don't blame his victims for fighting back.
> I'm not clear from the article how having an onion address helps
website operators who receive abusive traffic through Tor.

No, it's not clear. Also "abusive traffic" is vague. Are you mainly
concerned with shitposters, trolls, DOS attacks?

> What am I missing?

Maybe you're not missing it, but essentially it's a behavioural/social
rather than technical challenge. Most abusers, ones that technical
changes can address, operate at scale over HTTP/S and use Tor simply
as a free VPN via regular exit nodes to hide their IP. The author
calls this the "Wheat/chaff problem". Viewed this way, it's easiest
for a site owner to just block all of Tor and kill all legitimate users
too.

Most of those bulk abusers cannot be bothered to deal with marginal
cases like using an overlay network with .onion addresses whereas
those who _need_ Tor are highly motivated.

Other kinds of abusers, like persistent troll posters, are better
dealt with by other means even if you're using HTTP/S.
I know what you mean, even though I want trans people to feel comfortable in everyday life, dressing how they want and so on without prejudice, apparently it's 'transphobic' to recognise the material reality that transwomen are men and transmen are women.

Willpower is a limited resource, environmental modifications and behaviourism are king here. Find ways that work for you to keep less food around. Count calories, and reinforce meeting your calorie goals each day. If that doesn't work, it doesn't mean you are weak or bad, you just haven't found something sufficiently reinforcing yet. You can experiment with reinforcement intervals. Don't be afraid to start off with over-the-top reinforcement, you can always fade it down the road. But there's no substitution for calories in/out, there's no way you can get around eating less food if you want to lose weight (unless you exercise a ton, but that's typically not sustainable for someone chronically overweight).
I had some of that too though, that's kinda the idea. I found carby foods were most consistently weight adding, while meaty and fatty not so much.

I recall all you can eat bbqs actually resulting in weight loss the following day. But if I had a bowl of rice with them, I'd have the weight gain I feared. Moderate portions of Indian takeaway curries with Naan could keep my weight up for a few days.

That's not something I'd expect from pure calorie counting, nor do I understand what's actually going on or if it's good or bad etc. But it seemed useful to be aware of
Get a complete blood analysis in order to rule out conditions that might be getting in your way.

For example, hypothyroidism is a relatively common condition that will make you gain weight indirectly, by making you less active in general. A blood analysis can routinely identify it, and the treatment is simple - one small pill every morning.

Is it though ?
Not trying to sound smart, but what I found in 20+ years of programming is:

Learning new paradigms are harder than learning a new language. Example (functional vs OOP)

YouTube is a great resource to give you "overview". Notice I didn't say do a youtube course (although if that is your jam go for it).
I found the YouTube "programming tutorials" is a great way to just start filling in the "outer leaves of the knowledge tree" for a particular language/paradigm/framework.

I've also over the years, "conditioned myself", by telling myself learning a new lang/paradigm is not "hard" it's just "pain in the arse / time-consuming", but not "hard".

YMMV
>Seriously if your diet is crap at the moment if you start just drinking loads of water you will loose like half a stone cause you will stop retaining water.

I doubt that causality. If you lose weight by drinking more water it's probably because you stop drinking sugary drinks.

I would be careful with drinking "loads" of anything. Depending on what "loads" really means, it can be very unhealthy (your kidneys have to process all that water) or even fatal in extreme cases.

You can't define complex in a way clear enough to be useful. Maybe in your eyes it wasn't a "complex" hack, but what specifically distinguishes Equifax from nVidia or the other tech firms getting hacked right now? That you could write down, formalize, test in a court of law and which would last more than 6 months as an accepted definition? What about the China/Google hack in 2010? That was widely regarded as a groundbreaking attack by a nation state, but it started with an employee clicking a phishing link.

Drones are still expensive. There is an easier way though, just run with a GPS watch provided by someone else. That's what an honest runner with results too hard to believe would do.

"Ok guys, I get why you don't believe my results, it's natural to be suspicious. Please give me a GPS tracker, I will run with it to prove nothing shady is going on" is not that hard to arrange unless you're actually cheating.

Yep. Sad but true. Nobody bothers to keep their contact info up to date with their ISP it seems. Non-critical stuff sometimes can be mailed to a customer's service address, but often disconnecting someone is all an ISP can do to make them aware they have a problem.
Lol, in the last few years I've gotten into homemade pasta, pizza and sourdough bread making. That's actually helped reduce my overall carb consumption, I think, because my standards have all gone up. We rarely order a greasy takeout pizza because we can make better pizza at home, and it takes some premeditation.

> Anyone saying just eat less is full of shit.

Exactly. A pattern that doesn't last will get you back into the previous state fast.

I'm not a doctor but all you need is some exercise. Then you only need to let go of 1 item from your daily meal and also remove much sugar from your drinking by going tea or water and most people should do fine.
I would put Common Lisp in the Algol family.
Stop. Consuming. Sugar.

Get a scale which logs your weight automatically.

Remember that whole grain bread, whole grain cereals without sugar, are all replacements for sugar (carbs). They store it in a different format, which your body knows what to do with.

Learn about the relationship between sugar and fat, how your body can and when it will transform between the two and under which conditions.

Sugar is highly addictive, so quitting it is the first best step you can do, without harming yourself in the sense that you're nor depriving your body of energy. Your body knows how to extract the energy from real food.

Alcohol is the same as sugar but in a different, just as harmful sort.
Intermittent fasting. Basically I don't eat anything after 20:00 (8pm) and the next meal I eat is lunch around 11-12. Maybe a tea/coffee in the morning, nothing else.

The other trick is to eat as much as you did before, just substitute less calorie dense foods.
I had a similar experience, though not with a house. My sons school was organizing a couple of sport activities. We could sign him up for the different activities, but it was first come first serve. We were early, so our son ended up doing all the activities. This meant some kids ended up getting nothing.

I found this very unfair. Better would have been to let all the kids list there preferences and then fairly distribute the kids over the activities. However, I could see why the school wouldn't want to bother with this.

I ended up creating a tool (1) for them to do this easily. It's quite ugly, but it's open source (2) and it works. The tool is in dutch because it's a dutch school.

I love eating and I eat a lot. I try to control eating candies, but I still eat too many of them.

Still, my weight does not increase, because I drink only water and sometimes no-calories sodas. There really should be more awareness on how many calories sweetened beverages have - way too many.

I lost weight very quickly when I heavily limited the amount of food I ate, on top of not drinking or eating anything sweet.

When it comes to exercise, I'm only really doing one thing: 2 hours of walking with my dog every day. I imagine if you have no exercise at all, my tips will not work that effectively.

If you need that much evidence to tell that humans are outperforming AI then they may as well be driving to the same standard. Arguing there is a difference when someone might not be able to detect the difference in a lifetime is getting rather lost in the weeds.

By the time humans have been proven superior there is a real chance that the AIs will have improved to be superhuman. The experience in gaming is that state of the art goes from ok vs amateurs to superhuman quite quickly.

+1 on those services. I went with AWS Cognito, which gives you permanently 50.000 MAU for free. A big issue with self-hosting is also Email delivery; you'd have to go to some provider to send verification Emails to have a decent inboxing rate.

Only downside is the pretty ugly default login UI of cognito, but you can style it to some extend by adding a logo and custom css.
When the constriction of the twin towers started in 1968 asbestos was used for insulation.

In April 1970, the New York City Department of Air Resources established asbestos spray insulation regulations. As a result, the Department ordered contractors to stop the use of asbestos in the World Trade Center. The upper levels of the north tower and the entirety of the south tower contained asbestos alternatives.

It's estimated that the north tower contained 300 – 400 tons of asbestos.
