Maybe I missing something, but I can't see a scenario where whis is useful. either you DB sees little traffic and vacuum mostly fine, or you do have traffic and you'll never complete a vacuum again?

Running vacuum full locks the table, quickly cancelling the vacuum if you see a waiting query popup just means you vacuum tables that aren't used I suppose?

For me at least I happy with pg_repack, even autovacuum kills our DB :P
I had a similar problem, and found that it was much easier to deal with hunger in the morning. I generally skip breakfast (curbing hunger with coffee), have a light lunch, and a normal dinner. If I am still hungry before bed, maybe a glass of milk or some yogurt to get me through the night.
How do you ensure you get enough protein in this situation? Even with meat and eggs as a common source I’d be concerned about getting too much in a single meal and/or not enough overall.
So as far as I can tell there are 2 types of losses: losses on paper (the market price of the bond I own fell but I have not sold yet) and cash losses (the government defaulted and didn't pay).

Losses on paper are irrelevant because they don't effect the position of the bank or the amount of cash in circulation. The same applies for gains on paper. The bank just holds the bond until it expires at parity.

Defaults or selling the bond for less than the real value is much more serious. This is because it leaves money in circulation.

So if the central bank prints 100USD/Euro etc, holds the bond and then get's it's 100 back and burns it, then no currency has been created over all (just for a while between printing and burning). So there is no inflationary effect etc. If the price of the bond goes up or down, that's irrelevant as long as the bank never sells and just collects the 100 back.

But if the bank prints 100 and buys a bond. Then sells it for 70. Then it can only burn the 70 it has, and then other 30 remains in circulation and there is a lasting increase is the money supply. Similarly if they sold the bond for 130 and burnt that, they would be actively reducing the supply to less than it was before (deflation)

I don't think any central bank is SELLING bonds (other than at face value) right?

So there is no issue here.

Also, as the bonds come closer to their maturity date, their price will tend towards the face value. So this "issue" will disappear on paper too...

This study was in Chinese people who were overweight and were eating a lot of carbs (~300g a day). Presumably this was largely high GI rice. IF made a modest difference. They also lost some muscle mass, as expected. The study tested a lot of different variables, apparently without adjusting for multiple hypothesis testing.

Hard to generalise these results. If you are eating a toxic diet, I guess more time without it is a good thing. A similar study in a Western population showed no effect of isocaloric IF [1]. In another study, IF with energy restriction in obese subjects was more effective than energy restriction without IF [2].

I don’t see that the data supports IF as a universal strategy. If you are obese, then these studies suggest eating less, for less hours of the day and less at night is probably beneficial. Otherwise, as far as health interventions go, exercise has a much larger magnitude of benefit than dietary interventions. It also has the major advantage of simplicity - more exercise is better for everyone everywhere at every age [3]. Contrast this with the utterly confusing state of nutrition science. And exercise also makes a difference even when you do a little bit, whereas eating a little bit better does almost nothing.

[3] This is not 100% true. There are some contraindications to exercise for people with specific conditions.

EDIT: When talking about the benefits of exercise versus diet, I mean the effects on health in general (mortality, lifespan, healthspan). Exercise isn't an effective method of weight loss as others have indicated.
We didn’t get here as a modern nation. We got there because the fight to end slavery resulted in a lot of white people giving up during the Reconstruction era and allowing the South to rebuild many of the same power structures through a campaign of terrorism and political disenfranchisement during the Jim Crow era, which was only partially halted during the civil rights era and even some of those wins were later reversed under Regan and later.

The major loophole here is in the 13th amendment:

> Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

That doesn’t work if the judicial system is unfair. There are many, many examples showing that it too often isn’t with uncomfortably close relationships between the police, prosecutors, judges, and the prison industry. This is one of the more egregious cases in recent memory because it involved children but the cases involving adults tend to get far less media coverage:

Everybody knows that Aristotle – and thus “the Greeks” – thought that heavy objects fall faster than light ones. Supposedly it took Galileo to prove him wrong. But in fact there is a clear statement in Lucretius (De Rerum Natura II:225-239) that objects of different weight fall at the same speed, unless air resistance kicks in;

From my own experience and my SO's, a 2-5 percent per year seems normal.

What seems to happen is your manager's manager gets approval from finance to offer 2-5% raises per report. If your manager thinks that is unfair he/she needs to complain (spending their own political capital on someone other than themselves). Your manager gets told to figure out raises and thinks there is no reason not to just give everyone the max raise. I then get told I'm getting 5% and it feels woefully inadequate because I do the majority of the work. Knowing that my buddy makes much more than me, I start looking for a job.

What was anyone supposed to do here? If my manager could give 20% per employee he/she would (maybe the company really can't afford it). If my manager was told they had a pool of money to distribute that then turns into stacking (also something people are really unhappy about).

The employee with the least amount of power (me) requires someone above me to advocate on my behalf. Because your manager has to pick-and-chose their battles, it always seems to happen when I threaten to quit.
I mean Javascript does / did the same thing (var loop variables get hoisted to the function scope, so they are available outside of the loop; add to that that `range` creates a pointer and you have a perfect storm of weird, confusing things.

But this is an important point: They were aware of it; it was by design; they had the chance to change it before 1.0 and didn't, and now they are showing willingness to change. So many languages are resistant to change on the one hand (I mean Go is), yet not resistant to keep adding features (e.g. Java / JS).

Not sure why that would be expected. Fasting leads to significantly increased levels of HGH which preserves muscle and improves body composition. [1]

Fasting yields an up to 1250% increase in HGH depending on the duration of the fast. [2]

[edit] > ...exercise has a much larger magnitude of benefit than dietary interventions...

This could not be further from the truth. Exercise is not a good way to lose weight. It has a ton of health benefits and you should do it anyways but you should not expect to lose weight from exercise alone.

Think about it, 1lb of fat loss requires a caloric deficit of 3500kcal. An average human burns like 100kcal per mile running - so 35 miles per pound of fat. Deficit. Humans are well known for compensatory eating, after all you're running 1.5 marathons, you're going to be hungry, right? Someone who needs to lose 16bs needs to run from San Francisco to LA along the entirety of the high-speed rail Phase 1 track, via Merced, Bakersfield and Palmdale.

This is bad advice and it simply does not hold up.

> Contrast this with the utterly confusing state of nutrition science.

Fasting is the simplest nutrition science there is. BMR 2000kcal? Don't eat for a day, lose 0.6lbs. Or, you know, run an entire marathon without treating yourself to any more food that day than you would have normally consumed.

I've quit a multi-year smoking habit.

I'm not saying it is easy, but re-programming your thinking by interrogating your assumptions is very much possible (and essentially the core mechanic in cognitive behavioral therapy).

It's also important to note that if I examine how you think, that basically does nothing. You need to do it yourself, earnestly, if it's to have an effect.

There would still be a temperature difference for some time after entering a PIN until the keys used are fully cooled. So this method might not fully mitigate the attack.

A better solution could be to heat the keys to about the same temperature as a human's finger tips, so that no heat is being transferred while entering a PIN.

So the main advantage of eUSD is a prettier web site?

Seriously, this thing will be still born unless they can work some magic in terms of on/off ramp fees and performance. Instead, it appears they are leaving this to the usual profiteers who typically in no hurry and take a quite healthy bite out of your funds.

One big reason why (but not the only one) almost no one is using crypto for payments is the simple fact that the actual end to end cost is typically *more* than traditional banks --- unless you have the odd payee who is content to leave funds parked in crypto land.

Everything about the crypto market as it currently exists is built around speculation --- *not* currency applications. Instant payments 24/7 using plain ole USD (FedNow) will make sure it stays that way.
A central question for climate change is when will governments stop bailing out people who make bad decisions over where to build/invest/work. So far governments seem very unwilling to stop bailing out deniers...
Zzz... When "it was created in a lab!" stories are so effective at pushing many people's emotional buttons, and there are millions of passably loud or eloquent "leaders" who find it fun / attention-getting / empowering / whatever to spread "created in a lab" stories - coming up with Yet More Science to say "that is not true" is mostly a waste of time. You are trying to charm tone-deaf people with clever melodies and sway the blind with beautiful pictures.

Alternative idea - some muck-raking stories on just how profitable yelling "lab" as been for many of those miss-leaders, and how little they care about the truth. Maybe throw in a few backgrounder stories on major pandemics which occurred long before there was such a thing as a "lab", for the all-too-many folks who are mostly oblivious about history.

Also if you think people get clean in the country side that would suggest to me you’ve never spent time outside of these urban areas whence you’re trying to banish addicts. Anecdotally, the loneliness of the country side, being away from loved ones and familiar social and cultural institutions, made my own struggles worse.
It's easy to romanticize this decision from a distance, but it's actually quite authoritarian and a bad take at solving the tech addiction problem.

We sound similar, except for the 12 pack in a weekend thing. I don't drink much, but I enjoy it when I do. When I drink, it's one drink. Maybe two if I'm feeling extra spicy that day. I enjoy the ritual of the drink. I enjoy the little buzz I get. I enjoy socializing with my fellow drinkers. I DO NOT enjoy how it makes me feel an hour later... that night... the next day. I can tell that something isn't right almost immediately and that steals the joy from the ritual.

So, I just remember that when I want to have a drink. It's going to make me groggy. It's going to make me snore... which annoys my partner. It's going to make me wake up "foggy". Sometimes, particularly when I don't have any responsibilities the next day, or I'm away from my partner, I decide that it's okay, and I'll have a drink. Most times, I won't. I'll have something else instead. Try a virgin drink or a non-alcoholic beer. There's lots of tasty options that don't come with the negative side effects. My go-to is just tonic water with lemon/lime. I don't even miss the vodka/gin that's supposed to be in there. Have them add a splash of dry vermouth or bitters for a little extra special something.

I have found, in the situations where I took control of my desire and rejected the "need" for a drink, I have felt an even better "buzz" from that decision than I would the drink!

>Alcohol promises a great time. Alcohol delivers a hangover and regrets.

The level of simplicity being applied here suggests to me you've never been an alcoholic nor spent much time with alcoholics. This advice is at the same level of "just think positively" when addressing depression; it's almost laughably out of touch and unhelpful.

It's great that you find it easy to exhibit such control over your behaviors, but it's important to remember that the reason alcohol is the most widely abused drug in history is because to the vast, vast majority of people, an 'easy' internal examination isn't enough to permanently change one's behavior.
I have been experimenting with lifestyle TRF for 5 years before finally finding an approach that works consistently with little effort in a modestly socially acceptable way with common food sources.

Starting from 235 pounds I lost 55 pounds since April by restricting my feeding time window to 4 hours and I only exercise once every week or two.

An eating time window larger than 4 hours did not result in any meaningful long term weight loss for me. It must be 4 hours per day or shorter. 4 hours works great.

I barely made a change in my diet to eat healthier besides cutting out foods and beverages commonly known as being bad and I only drink water and coffee. I consistently begin to plateau and this process only stops with increased water intake and exercise, but mostly water intake more than 1 gallon per day.

In terms of effect size time restriction is most critical followed by eating food that isn't obviously unhealthy (e.g. anything containing added fructose), closely followed by drinking a gallon of water per day. Exercise is a distant next step but it has a big effect whenever loss plateau begins.

As I approach my weight goal I plan to expand my eating window by one hour per day per month until I plateau.
Show HN: Bike – Rich Text and Innovation
I have just added rich text to my outliner Bike.

I think the implementation is worth taking a look at. Follow the link for details, a screencast (4 min), and download. (this is paid feature, but there is a no signup 7 day trial so you can play with it)

In the past I have used plain text formats (like .taskpaper and .markdown) for my apps. I've grown sick of seeing and parsing syntax characters, so this time around I am taking a rich text approach.

Rich text looks clean, but editing is problematic. You don't have precise control/visibility into the formatting. It's hidden behind the text. There are no formatting characters to guide you like you have in Markdown. This is particularly problematic when you want to insert text at formatting boundaries.

Bike solves this with "typing affinity". This lets you precisely specify which formatting to use at those boundaries. It does this by adding an extra text caret state at these boundaries. This extra state allows you to point the text caret upstream or downstream to the formatting you want.

Other interesting features include:

• Link Buttons: Insert a dedicated "open" button after each link so there is no conflict between editing link text and opening the link.

• Keyboard Centric Formatting Popover: Remember a single keyboard shortcut and have full keyboard access to formatting commands. No mouse needed.

• Visible Typing Attributes: Show hidden typing attribute state (when it cannot be visually determined by looking at surrounding text) as part of the text caret.

Please take a look and let me know what you think. I'm happy to answer questions and would love to hear your thoughts on ways to improve rich text editing further.

8.8mm or 8.8Mm (milli or Mega)? Why these numbers? Anyway I would say that any inertia of the ball is irrelevant compared to the gravitational forces.

Assuming we had a magical drill, the drilled hole would immediately collapse due to gravity.

Assuming there would be a magic force preventing the collapse, the ball should stay in the center of the hole as there is net zero gravity right at the center. The inertia could let it overshoot a bit, but it would be pulled back as it possesses a negligible mass compared to the heavy object and therefore its inertia is quite small compared to the gravitational forces.
OneDrive. Enterprise deployments have something similar to consumer-grade OneDrive, but more enterprisey with compliance controls built in. And of course all the regular Office apps work well with it — it’s not just browser based.

It’s honestly pretty good. All the usual features are there — importantly, version history (no more Contract v15 FINAL.docx).

The key thing is it works with Teams and SharePoint and has collaborative editing, works in browser, desktop app, or phone.

They had an on-premises version of OneDrive too, not sure if that’s still a thing.

It’s not all a bed of roses. Gmail still feels nicer than Outlook web, but Outlook web is catching up. Collaborative editing feels much more robust in Google Docs. But the OneDrive client is way nicer than Google Drive (for me, at least).

I’d definitely say Google’s and Microsoft’s “online business collaboration” offerings are comparable. I suspect users will have preferences based on what they’re used to.

Of course, if your org uses both you’re in for a world of hurt. Email works well enough, but even calendaring has friction. Filesharing / chatrooms? Doesn’t interoperate well at all.

I had been drinking almost every evening for the past year. It was only a few bottles of beer or a bottle of wine but it was enough to make me groggy in the morning.

I found it real hard going to a supermarket without going down the alcohol aisle - there are always deals going on.

Just recently, I realized I was gaining weight, so started watching what I eat. As alcohol always made me binge eat I 'simply' did not go down the alcohol aisle on the next shopping trip.
I put simply in quotes because it took me real effort to avoid it.
Without alcohol in the house, the choice to drink has been taken away from me.

I have basically gone cold turkey and drink tea/water instead.

Honestly, I thought I would have had a more difficult time but it hasn't fazed me in the slightest.

Even if I had only been gaining strength, that's still a good thing. So in practice this doesn't change the fact that it's a good idea to train while dieting.
