I very highly doubt most of the folks are reading the research pages: I, like most folks here, am not a scientist, doctor, nor dietician. So I do have to look at other things to assess whether or not information is trustworthy before I take it at its word.

I'm not even saying that diet doesn't help. Neither is anyone else.

What I am saying is that your link is an advertisement for a paid service in the US, is done on a limited number of studies and some of those studies are done by a couple of the folks that founded the company. Not to mention that they funded the studies. These things actually make me doubt the entire premise for these links.

From what I can tell, they are basically pushing keto on diabetics. This particular diet program isn't a cure-all, nor does it perform better or have fewer risks than other diets. I don't doubt diet helps, I'm just doubting that this particular diet is something to push on others unless there is more research on this particular diet.
I'm dumb.. what's the punchline in that joke?
It already exists. It's called TrueBill, it costs $3-$12 per month, and they were acquired for $1.2 billion
I feel like I'm constantly at loggerheads with many of my friends too because of this. It's silly how so many of them unquestioningly obey expiration dates.

The silliest though are people who do so, but happily leave a pack of opened UHT milk in the fridge for months because it wouldn't expire for another year or so.
Just yesterday night I went to a comedy club in Paris that does standup comedy in English. It was an "improv special" where each comic has to improvise jokes based on random prompts displayed on a screen with a projector.

T.J. Miller, of Silicon Valley fame, does it successfully in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxD6S-nEL_I

But yesterday, most comics bombed badly; out of 8, just one was actually good, and one passable; the others were terrible. But it's an incredibly difficult exercise, so much so that one has to wonder why you would put yourself through this.

It's certainly true that comedy is about writing and rehearsal and being analytical and having a fun look at the world; but it's also about quick wit, especially if one wants to interact with the audience.
That may be true, but I doubt you’re actually too interested in people with completely different interests. Just like utilitarians and deontologists might be interested in finding and talking with each other but not someone who is wholly uninterested in ethics as a simple example.
Facebook the company will need to buy up all the grassroots social media platforms that sprout up. That costs money and isn't possible in China where they can't buy Tik Tok. That's why there is such a furore by FB backed lobbyist to make Tik Tok a terrorist platform. Long term FB will eventually die as young folk will not want to use the platform old folk do and older folk are less influence by ads on these platforms. It's a slippery slope for FB but there will always be a new platform that sprouts that the cool kids all use.

Objective-C had the primary benefit (over Smalltalk) of being a superset of C, which permitted immediate and easy interaction between Objective-C and C source code. It also integrated better (which was critical, Smalltalk doesn't force using the image model for source code, but it was typical) into existing development workflows. Those are the kinds of practical concerns that can't be neglected when considering language adoption, especially since NeXT (main early adopter) was building on the lineage of the Unix-family of operating systems.
The rest of the city is called Mestre. It’s a separate town on the mainland, which belongs to the sane administrative “city”. Nobody considers them as _the same_ city.
Hahaha that would be nice. But it likely demands a stock of varied nutrients, not just "energy". Also the cells changing need to take a break to consolidate what they have adapted to (brain plasticity).

Both telegram and discord need phone numbers though - telegram upfront and discord after your used it for about ten mimutes.
At the same time though, building a game that is easy to port is good engineering in the first place. Even if you only release on mainstream platforms, writing platform-agnostic code can save you so many headaches down the line when you want to release on console/mobile etc.

Household formation is tricky. With total fertility rate continuing to decline, it’s important to shift away from singe family starts to higher density (duplex, quads, mid rise mixed use, and condo towers, depending on what the local market calls for); as older cohorts age out and Boomers transition into senior or assisted living, that’ll free up housing stock.

TLDR take the population pyramid into account, but still build baby build.

Don't Assume Things About Others Use Cases.

In cases where I'm doing some sort of interactive or exploratory data analysis with structures of complex python objects and want to stash a copy of what I'm working with in case the next thing I do screws the up or, who knows, I lose power - being able to quickly pickle something and have an amount of confidence I'll be able to get it back in a sensible state is very useful.

I've also used it for debug dumps in experimental software so I have a chance of reproducing odd cases it comes across.

Hence probably. I have no doubt CPAs like every professional including developers make mistakes. Although I assume they're probably mostly obvious one which can be corrected fairly easily. I'm also sure there are outliers.

A traditional RDBMs or filesystem is designed for high throughput and concurrency, even if some tasks are blocked on data. Additionally both have options to partition steadily growing things. If needed with old partitions being moved to tape backup while the server continues running.

Redis is a single threaded program acting against RAM whose philosophy is that it does things fast then moves to the next job. If it needs to access memory that got paged to disk, the whole server stops and waits to get it. Nobody can do anything.

Because Redis doesn't have to deal with locking and concurrency, it can run much faster on the same resources. But when concurrency is required, it is stuck because it doesn't have it.
Because Substack. Same thing with Medium articles. Never used either of these platforms, but surely they allow custom HTML?

Objective-C has great as it might have been, didn't brought much to the table to those used to the Windows or Mac IDEs for GUI development.

The Next vs Sun marketing video wouldn't have been the same when placed against HyperCard, Visual Basic, Delphi or C++ Builder.

NeXT was almost bankrupt when they were pivoting into OpenStep, and not only was Java born out of Objective-C influences at Sun during the OpenStep days, Java EE was born from the ashes of an Objective-C framework for distributed computing at Sun.

These two things are different, most suicide is impulsive - this has a waiting period. So to the people who want to kill themselves because their partner broke up with them, etc, have some time to cool off - though this isnt really for those cases and they are still likely to jump and/or take their family down with them.

And is it always regret or maybe shame that is hard to tell the difference or say aloud? I dont regret my attempt 20+ years ago, but it made me feel so much worse about myself for a long time because I could not handle the shame of not even being able to do that one thing right.

I am now an advocate for a humane way to end one’s life, I was lucky in that I did not maim or disable myself like other people who fail in their attempt. This should be open to anyone, because there are people who are just done or just dont want to be here.

I still dont want to be here and I have done the self love/growth introspective work, have friends, hobbies and live comfortably by western standards. Each year has just strengthen my resolve to be able to end my life on my terms and in a humane way and in the country I love. The thought of failure a second time w/ possible disability/disfigurement is not something I want, or cant, add on to being here - as strange as it sounds, it would destroy me like the first failure almost did. I strongly hope to be able to do it in my own country but I have a timeline and, if I am still around at that time, I have not ruled out being a “suicide tourist” even though I would really prefer to go out in a world that wasn’t obsessed with controlling other peoples bodily autonomy
> It might be AirBnB that really ends up taking it out. Whatever you'd pay to live that life, somebody else will pay more to spend a night in it.

Yep. Great way to put it. I've felt for a while that airBnB is the rot at the core of many previously great cities.

It's true that people on the internet can't have light conversations about the nature of comedy without larping as psychologists, diagnosing people over the internet as severely damaged for having an opinion that they disagree with.

100% this. Everyone else is trying to make a tiktok clone and bolt it on to a maze of existing, and in some cases very similar, social media offerings. TikTok works because it's video only from the ground up.

Hacker News always has crazy takes when it comes to anything diet related. It's always strange.

I totally agree: it's completely preposterous that they're burning 6kcal sitting still regardless of how much they're thinking. People don't seem to realize how hard it is to burn that many calories when moving. That is advanced athlete levels of caloric burn. Does this caloric burn similarly apply while they're "training", or just at tournaments? Do they need to put down Olympic level meals every day just to sustain?

What about other people who's job is thinking? Are mathematicians also forced to devote a significant part of their day just to ensuring can chew through 6000 calories worth of food? Or is there something about board movements that consumes extra calories? L shape? 3 calories. Straight line: one calories. If we could pin down which type of thought burned 100x more calories, we'd be onto something powerful here.
True and that's a big part of the problem. I just don't want to spend my free time with people behaving like that.
When I first began using social media I was excited at the potential ability in the future to look back over my life. In reality I have almost completely abandoned social media and I am very happy with the Google photos remember this day feature which for me goes back at least 15 years.

Canada is following liberal ideals to their natural conclusions.
Social media cannibalized itself to death in pursuit of ad revenue via increased engagement. The harder they pushed, with content assumption algorithms, the more toxic it became. The more toxic it becomes the more it appeals to extreme personalities while alienating everyone else, a poisonous viper eating itself.

It’s only market lag between the revenue source, media source agencies, and the realization that better markets for their business. When that occurs the death spiral hyper accelerates to rapid finality.

Like all death spirals this could have been avoided had they treated their users as a potential revenue source instead of a product. I was watching a history video yesterday about the Aztecs who completely alienated the tribes in their empire in their own death spiral. The empire was already dead before the Spanish arrived, but the Aztecs just didn’t see it yet.
Pfft. Youngster ;). I was born in 1955, I didn't really learn to program until 1980 (and have never programmed professionally), but am plenty tech-savvy. People just have to have the need or interest to be "good" at tech, no matter their age. My mom, who is now in her mid-80s and in memory care, was able to keep up a very active life via email well into her 70s; my wife, who's a couple years older than me, knows enough to use her iPad to read, research and buy stuff online, but hands the device to me for anything more.

No one who understands how much 6,000 calories is could make this claim.

That would mean they need to eat 8,000 calories a day for a normal 2000 calorie diet. That's like Michael Phelps level. That's like: leave the tournament, go back to your hotel and eat 7-8 medium dominos entire pizzas in a sitting. I hope I don't need to explain that this is not what chess masters are doing.

Maybe, but you want to have your disagreements with the people that typically frequent HN about topics that are typically discussed on HN.
You're looking at it with the deeply ingrained belief that nuclear bombs are a uniquely horrifying thing, something that should automatically warrant special consideration, and where merely threatening its use was obviously something no enemy could ignore.

The people who made the decisions back then did not have, could not have that belief. They had been fighting a brutal war for years, and it was just a bomb. A bigger, more powerful bomb that they hoped would help win the war, but without the hindsight that informs your view, it would not at all have been obvious to them that this bomb could end the war all by itself. Because a weapon that could force a surrender merely through a demonstration of its power had never before existed.

The point of view you can't find is simply this: "We have to hit them what everything we have, as hard as possible, as quickly as possible, until they can't fight back anymore, because that's the only thing that's worked so far."

Yes social is changing. The initial value proposition of sites where we needed platforms to stay-up-to-date, meet new people, and communicate with each other can now be replicated easily.

Most social sites have stayed in the UI paradigm of 2003/2004. Just have a look at how much wasted space there is at LinkedIn.

Sites like Lunchclub, Clubhouse, and Finclout are sites where the tools are expanded through social networks (i.e, come for the tool stay for the community)

> Efficiency at 500 to 1000 RPM is important

Why is this? Thinking out loud: can't you gear your motor so that it's most efficient at cruising speed for the vehicle? But the problem is that the car still needs to be able to accelerate from zero and some gearings will make that impossible, so having an efficient band at 500—1000 RPM gives you the best chance of being able to accelerate from 0–500 RPM?
