The metabolic feedback loop there is not precise as you may think. There is a huge variability and even big thresholds of when it starts switching. That's why you need to measure your calories intake and results, and act accordingly.
Small calories deficit won't slow down the metabolism, especially if you add a bit of excercise or physical activity to the list. Big calories deficit on the other hand could cause issues.
The main reason you want to do that is they're the average voter. Young people don't vote. They also might not have a community/family/friends anymore and might not be capable of relocating.

LVT is a better-designed alternative to property tax; taxing property (improvements to land) has the downside that you want people to improve their land, and taxing that would cause deadweight loss.

> What does it matter? I do $packagemanager install git and am done.

_Freedom_. Fossil is trivial to build on all modern platforms and we (in the fossil project) always recommend that folks use the trunk version, building it for themselves. Depending on an OS'es package manager just means that one is stuck with whatever version that package repo's volunteer package maintainers post.

> I can't clean up my messy WIP commits?

Nope. Fossil remembers what happened, not what "should have" happened. We (on the fossil project) consider that a feature, and fossil's own history is littered with "oopsies" (no small percentage of them from yours truly).

Arch is too manual for me. I use Manjaro and love it. Absolutely trouble-free distro. Never had the much-claimed "rolling releases are going to prevent your machine from rebooting one day".

In fact the only problem I had with it for years was the upgrade if OpenSSH that removed support for certain crypto algorithms. And that's not the fault of the distro.
I think exokernels and isokernels solve many of these issues where containers are currently used, check the Ocaml community for examples.

They run on hardware.

Ultimately, there needs to be a singular scheduling system running on hardware and a singular HAL-like driver layer, and exo or iso kernels deliver just that, vs lxe containers provided by os services.

The sizes are also quite impressive.

In an eight-week study in 38 women who exercised four times per week, there was no difference in weight loss between those who took L-carnitine and those who didn’t (24).

What’s more, five of the participants taking L-carnitine experienced nausea or diarrhea (24).

Another human study monitored L-carnitine’s effect on fat burning during a 90-minute stationary bicycle workout. Four weeks of taking supplements did not increase fat burning (28).

It would be interesting to see the actual numbers on how much such a transition will cost.

Can their existing mainframe software and databases simply migrate into a cloud offering? If not, then if their planned transition has delays or technical hurdles, how much of that cost savings is affected?

If their cloud providers change pricing structures in future contract negotiations or if the amount of data they transfer in/out of each cloud provider location changes dramatically in order to better serve their customers, how much of that cost savings is affected?

It's clear that you can run a business with minimal amount of physical plant for servers. It's still not entirely clear to me that large established businesses can actually save money this way.
Of course it's not on purpose. Companies usually don't do this on purpose nowadays.

They just ignore concerns from QA (for example, regarding competitors). Google does this. Microsoft does this.

I'm not really sure what you are pointing at here. But if you are suggesting to have a single C file that has configurations, dependencies and commands to be run while building your project, then that is not a very good idea. Simply because.... we may not even want to use gcc to build our projects.

We may want a more suitable tool that is first of all more user-friendly (like Beast), allows you flexibility in defining custom tasks (like Beast does).

Secondly, we simply may not have gcc to compile the all.c file (as mentioned in comments below). We just want a unified tool (an CLI preferably) that does all this for us. This is what Beast does. Make and Ninja are long standing build systems that prove my point.

Plus, you get Beast binary as a standalone executable. Check it out here: https://github.com/GauravDawra/Beast/releases/tag/v1.1.0

Ultimately companies that abdicate their informatics operations like this will give their profits to their data-center operators, who will be empowered to charge them whatever price they want. Because what's their BATNA? Migrating from Azure to AWS when Microsoft doesn't want to let them?

Renting your information infrastructure is a great way to reduce startup costs, but down the road, that information infrastructure runs your company. Trying to outsource it is like trying to outsource upper management.

To be clear, I'm not saying that the optimal amount of cloud services for an established company like FedEx to buy is 0. They bring in management consultants, too. But it sure isn't 100%.

Consistency is #1 for exercise. I do agree that many people seem to overthink it too early on. But, some people draw motivation from the overthinking as long as they don't consider the thinking part a silver bullet or mistake it for actually doing the exercise.
Not especially, but that hardly matters; what matters is that FedEx's CIO doesn't trust FedEx to operate data centers in a way that is better for FedEx than AWS or Microsoft.
Making accurate calculations of data center cost is of course complicated and rarely manages to take everything into account, but the common knowledge I’ve heard is that there comes a point when a company is so large that going on-prem is what actually saves them a lot of money.

If FedEx is not large enough to be one of those companies, how large do you actually have to be? Or has cloud pricing changed to the point where this is no longer true, and even huge corporations can save money in moving away from their own premises?
Lazy end users, not writing drivers to hardware they don't have engineering specs to. Oh well, NVIDIA might get more than they bargained for with their scheme to dominate GPGPU with their proprietary API. It would be a real shame if people started using GPUs for rendering graphics, and just computed the prior work loads on DSPs and FPGAs sitting behind APIs already wired into LLVM, and silicon fab at process levels suited to the task only gets cheaper as new facilities are created to meet the demands of the next node level. That would be just awful, CUDA being so great and all - so beloved due to "Investments ... made 15-17 years ago" and no other reason. Huh, I wonder if that is why they unsuccessfully tried to buy Arm - because they knew the GPU carriage is at risk of turning back into a pumpkin, and they want to continue dominating the market of uncanny cat image generators.
It certainly seems unlikely. Maybe it's the current operational cost, not subtracted the new operational cost. Maybe it's due to already adopting cloud and thus having paying double. Maybe it's due to the use of mainframes, rather than conventional servers.

Either way, it's definitely not the cost difference between on-premise and cloud. Cloud providers are not charities, and their buildings and staff are not cheaper than yours.
I don't really want Git to change so much. What I do want however is for other tools to take over features from Git. Pretty much every app that I use in my daily life would be enhanced if it had git-like features.

Cue 10 years down the line, when everyone realizes cloud comes with tradeoffs in flexibility and reliability and they all move back to on-premise for business critical stuff.

I've done similar for demonstrating how UDP and TCP works using IP-over-AX.25 and 1200bps modems. If you configure one end to be at a slightly different pitch it'll still sync but it'll give that end a different "voice" so you can hear which side is talking.

> Either way, it's definitely not the cost difference between on-premise and cloud. Cloud providers are not charities, and their buildings and staff are not cheaper than yours.

Exactly, which is why it’s quite a bit cheaper to not have a building and staff right? The premium you pay for the cloud provider having them must be less than having them yourself, or nobody would ever move to a cloud provider.

Hi! Thanks a lot!! These are valuable and I am excited to take a look!! Interestingly, some of the things that you mentioned here are things that I discovered while using Make and Ninja purely through experimentation!!!

Great work!!
I'd be interested in how the calibration works, you need known samples for the energy and not all of them are easy to get.
PoE is a bit excessive for this I think. Most of these IoT devices should be using less that 1mA on average, usually a lot less.

They also need next to no data transmission rate in a lot of cases. 3 or even 2 thin wires could easily handle it.

You could even reuse USB-C as the connector, and optionally actually use the USB lines for configuration, or use barrel jacks for a bit more power and easy DIYing.

If you limited it to just really simple stuff you could use very thin cheap wire, branching however you want because you only need 4800 baud or less, easy to hide, almost no cost.
this is an important point for structured training, i.e. for people who already have a work ethic. nobody is going to force high intensity interval training on recreational cyclists and runners, but it is important for people looking to improve their performance.

HEY LINUX KERNEL PROGRAMMERS! why do you always care about buffer overflows so much? just write some fun code! get a few features done! stop worrying about security holes all the time. accumulating LoC is far more important.
Your body doesn't want to waste away, so it tries to concerve energy. Whether this be aspects such as slightly reducing your metabolism, or by stopping various 'fidgety' behaviours that, while small, add up to burn calories during the day (think actions like bouncing your legs or moving your ankles). After exercise, you are more likely to just sit still. It can also divert resources away from your immune system in the short-ish term (e.g. colds spread easily through the Tour De France peloton, which partly is due to close proximity for ours at a time, but is also just people being worn down and more vulnerable when working out heavily for a prolonged period).

Exercise CAN lead to weight loss (I used to weigh ~115kg/250lb/18st, now weigh 74kg/160lb/11.5st ...mostly lost over 2 years), but as the old saying goes "You can't out-run a bad diet". It's much easier to eat 500 (k)calories than it is to burn 500 cal.

As for exercise-induced hunger, yes some people don't feel hungry 'after' exercise...but e.g. if you exercise mid-day, do you add more to the following meals (e.g. evening, or more snacking?), adding more calories overall?

Note: I found weight loss 'simple', as I find it very easy to follow a repetitive diet, so while calorie counting has flaws with the inaccuracy of estimates, calorie counting works IF YOU USE IT RIGHT. I at least knew if I eat roughly the same breakfasts and lunches, it's much easier to identify dietary habit changes or volume reductions if I wasn't achieving weight loss.
Fair enough, like vanilla git as of today.

I do hope someday git and others employ either a git annex or mercurial-style scheme where if it's a large binary file: 1. no diff is performed, and 2. only the latest version is kept within the history.

This would blow wide open the possibilities for using Fossil in binary-heavy projects such as machine learning, games, simulation.

I could see the SQLite limitation worked around by just splitting up binary data into multiple pieces.

I've been using/evaluating twinBASIC for a few months now (other than that I have no connection with the twinBASIC developers).

I've been very impressed with everything about twinBASIC so far.
There is a free (including commercial use and royalty free distribution) community edition (Windows only, 32bit and 64bit - though the 64bit has a nag screen).

The paid editions add optimised compilation, and (planned) support for Linux, Mac and Android (and possibly Web).

Compared against other products such as Gambas, Xojo (realbasic) or VB.Net it has the advantage of being able to import existing VB6 apps and run them as Windows 32bit apps (much of this is available now, but there is still some way to go for 100% compatibility). RAD Basic may offer compatibility too, but it seems difficult to find an up to date evaluation download.

twinBASIC also goes beyond what VB6 offered - 64bit compilation, multithreading, creating DLLs etc. (some of which could be done with hacks in VB6).

As for a potential market, that is difficult to say. There are still huge numbers of VB6 applications in use, having the ability to move easily to a new language may be attractive for whoever still supports those applications.
There is certainly interest, a thread about twinBASIC on VBForums has had almost 400,000 views.

In Japan, everything is anime, literally. Even the public sector's PSA-like subway posters and TV ads are using Anime characters, and it occasionally creates some conflicts.

Anime tends to have gender bias, which is kind of fine , but sometimes it is not the best tool to convey the public service messages. But people didn't notice until feminists get really mad. This is the result of the ultimate penetration and of the anime culture, and fascinating to observe. It's a skewed twin of Japanese culture after all.
Git's UX sucks, but git is built on like four simple concepts (blobs, trees, commits, refs) and I feel that's almost impossible to improve on.

Snapshots do have the advantage of not having to know anything about the data.

Tracking changes necessarily needs to define a way to describe how things may change.

Perhaps another take on the issue is that changing data should be structured to be more snapshot friendly?

Bingo. When I was much younger I was super skinny. I was weight lifting, but simply not gaining weight. I thought I ate a lot, and decided to start tracking. I barely ate anything. Even as a kid I hated to stop doing whatever it was I was doing and taking time to eat. That spilled over into adult life. But, once I saw numbers it became clear and I was finally able to adjust.

Humans are generally terrible at estimations like this. I suggest tracking anything that you think may be a negative in your life.
