Effect of Calorie-Unrestricted Low-Carbohydrate, High-Fat Diet Versus High-Carbohydrate, Low-Fat Diet on Type 2 Diabetes and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Result:

The mean age was 56 years (SD, 10), and 58% were women. Compared with the HCLF diet, participants on the LCHF diet had greater improvements in hemoglobin A1c (mean difference in change, −6.1 mmol/mol [95% CI, −9.2 to −3.0 mmol/mol] or −0.59% [CI, −0.87% to −0.30%]) and lost more weight (mean difference in change, −3.8 kg [CI, −6.2 to −1.4 kg]). Both groups had higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and lower triglycerides at 6 months. Changes in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were less favorable in the LCHF diet group than in the HCLF diet group (mean difference in change, 0.37 mmol/L [CI, 0.17 to 0.58 mmol/L] or 14.3 mg/dL [CI, 6.6 to 22.4 mg/dL]). No statistically significant between-group changes were detected in the assessment of NAFLD. Changes were not sustained at the 9-month follow-up.
The EU government is simply laying the ground rules as to how businesses should operate inside the EU single market. They're not forcing Apple to change its business practices anywhere else in the world, as far as I understand. And Apple is free to leave the European market, if they do not like those conditions. Personally, as a consumer, I welcome this. And I hope that they don't just end at Apple. Google and Microsoft oughta be next.
Nice to see this video pop up on HN, I had watched it just a few days ago. I still can remember the exciting reports of the Calypso's exploration on TV in the 70ies. Faszinating to see the background of how everything came to be. From the beginnings being a very modest ship and continiously being enhanced until it became the almost sci-fi (for that time) exploration vessel. And how much Jaques Custeau had to work and invest to make it happen. How much he had to actually invent what we take for granted today.

The best fun-fact in my eyes was how not only the diesel and water tanks were expanded over time, but a wine-tank was added to the vessel. But that seems natural when you consider that the crew was French and they took multi-year journeys far away from good wine supply.

Common narrative is smoking is bad, whereas ICE cars still bridge a gap. ICE cars also aren't an addiction. The comparison is completely off the mark.

There seem to be a lot of data version control systems built around ML pipelines or software development needs, but not so much on the sort of data editing that happens outside of software development & analysis.

Kart (https://kartproject.org) is built on git to provide data version control for geospatial vector & tabular data. Per-row (feature & attribute) version control and the ability to collaborate with a team of people is sorely missing from those workflows. It's focused on geographic use-cases, but you can work with 'plain old tables' too, with MySQL, PostgreSQL and MSSQL working copies (you don't have to pick - you can push and pull between them).
This is clever: you let the window size vary such that you never allow two copies of the same character in your window, and just stop when your window size reaches the target size. Seems like it should work well. But:

> i mask the bitmap in the inner loop condition, but you could just test letterToRemove against letterToAdd and break if they're the same

You still need to check ((lettersSeen & letterToAdd) != 0) once to know whether you need to enter that loop at all. Worst case (a long string of the same letter) you do this twice per letter in the input anyway.
This is a shockingly cynical and reductive take on Mars exploration. The enthusiasm for human exploration of the solar system is earnest and valid, and I assure you, not a cog in an international conspiracy. One doesn't have to choose between space exploration and addressing resource depletion/inequality. You can care about both.

There should not be a penalty for saving money. Furthermore you can give your money to the bank as a deposit (loan) and the bank will pay you some rate based upon what they can invest it on. Nowhere here does this require any level of inflation.
Battery technology has been improving very steadily since the advent of solar and even though it is expensive if you look at the battery storage requirement as a function of PV installed power the only thing that has marred the equation is the incredible speed with which PV has become cheaper.

And no, it's not 10-15 years away, you can buy a battery backed PV system with well over a night's storage capacity today from a large number of vendors. Search for Hybrid PV systems.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. What is it you think you took in the worst possible way?

The lasers in question are mediocre for battlefield use. The consequences for the military are trivial, unless you're talking about 70 years from now when the US military is using fusion to power some of its military bases, subs or carriers.
I think there are levels to it though. Smoking is across the board "fucking awful". Whereas a glass of wine a day isn't going to really stress your liver (presupposing no existing issues), whereas a pack of smokes a day absolutely will do damage to your healthy lungs. Also second hand smoke is a big deal.
Only the evilEmpire would do something untoward with that data. You can trust a US company implicitly. /s

There are probably several factors at play:

1. Countries in colder climate are generally more economically prosperous. South Korea is colder (though hot in summer) than S/E Asian countries.

2. South Koreans have always been overzealous about education.

3. South Korea is ethnically more homogenous than S/E Asian countries. People have been comfortable with idea of putting interests of the large group (i.e. nation) before that of the individuals.

Take spullara's numbers:

2.01410177811 u = 3.34449439340696e-24 g deuterium

3.01604928 u = 5.008267217094e-24 g tritium

17.6 MeV = 7.832863e-19 kWh energy

Divide through, and you will see that you need 4.27 ug/kWh of deuterium, and 6.39 ug/kWh of tritium.

A random source [1] says that New York will use 50.6 TWh per year by 2027. That would require ~216 kg/yr of deuterium and ~323/yr kg of tritium.

This is all assuming 100% efficiency. A quick read suggests 50% efficiency might be practical, so double those quantities.

Also, i could easily have messed up that calculation somewhere, so please do check it!

"The European Union's Digital Markets Act that went into effect on November 1 requires "gatekeeper" companies to open up their services and platforms to other companies and developers. The DMA will have a major impact on Apple's platforms, and it could result in Apple making drastic changes to the App Store , Messages, FaceTime, Siri, and more. Apple has until March 6, 2024 to comply with the EU's rules.

According to Bloomberg, Apple's software engineering and services employees are working to open up "key elements of Apple's platforms," with Apple using a "significant amount of resources" for the change. Apple is planning for the functionality to be ready for iOS 17 in 2023, which would put it ahead of the deadline.

To protect users, Apple is considering implementing security requirements such as verification, a process that it could charge a fee for. Apple has a verification system on Mac that allows users to be safe while giving them access to apps outside of the Mac App Store."

Seems like it's quite far reaching. Forcing a company to make business decisions that are not entirely positive for the consumer seems like an unwise precedent to set.

Lower prices sure, more options sure, but effectively mandating a really complex gatekeeper system on every modern iPhone seems like it will come with a lot of downsides for the end user, that might outweigh the touted upsides.
Quoting from the article you linked to:

Hurricane’s current output, although more than the hydrogen fuel put into the reaction, hasn’t yet reached the stated goal to achieve “ignition," where nuclear fusion generates as much energy as the lasers supply. At that point it might be possible to make a sustainable power plant based on the technology.
Vegaphobia or not, I fail to see any link here.
Hi :) This should be possible, but I have not done it yet myself. For the time being, you would have to create a barebones NixOS project and build on that based on own research.

Ooooh, that's an interesting thought. You could be right.

So, for the avoidance of doubt:

The original original was redactle.com. The creator of that seems to have abandoned it not long after its creation, and to have taken no further interest in it.

The thing we are talking about is redactle-unlimited.com. This was made by berjin. It gives suitable credit to redactle.com. It provides a notably better playing experience than original redactle.com does. I do not consider it a copycat in any culpable sense.

And then there are the copycats of Redactle Unlimited, most notably redactleunlimited.com. That one, so far as I can tell, has simply taken berjin's code and filed off the serial numbers. It offers no improvement over redactle-unlimited.com. It does not give credit to any of its predecessors. It is definitely a copycat in every sense.

Way back in 2006, as a CS major with networking emphasis, I did a summer internship at NASA APL (Applied Physics Laboratory) My task was to modify Linux networking stack to simulate deep space communication packet loss and throttling. Then to implement something called Bundle protocol over UDP and run a lot of throughput simulations.

The idea was to maximize data throughput between Mars and Earth by routing data packets from the rovers to the orbiters because the orbiters circled every 90 minutes and the rovers had to wait hours for Mars to rotate to get line of sight with Earth. Also, some orbiters can send at higher throughput than others.

It was a fun project but way over my head at the time. I do remember walking into mission control a few times and ESPN was playing on the big screen. World cup was going on that summer.

Most startups are paying the lower end of market rate to below market rate salaries and compensating more with equity, so it's not necessarily irrational on the part of the startups.

> But for startups and venture funded, high growth companies to be unaware after two years is not cool

There are a million more important things to worry about at most startups than being in regulatory compliance with every silly law. I would venture to guess that the more a startup is in regulatory compliance with every little thing the less likely it is to succeed.
> use a single metric to assess something as broad and vague as intelligence.

That's not what IQ is trying to do. It's just trying to create a score that represents how well you do on IQ tests, and that score happens to be correlated with some outcomes after correcting for confounders.

I have not seen any evidence that shows IQ isn't heritable, so I'm left to believe that, like many other traits, it is. At least to an extent.
Ironic, considering US companies must provide their data to US gov even for non US persons or clients, and that's why Google and MS services are deemed illegal in many EU countries.

Brokers are not banks. For real financial systems your stock are held 1:1 in a custody account in a separate company with regulations making sure you get to keep your stock even in the case of bankruptcy of the broker.

You can sell all your holdings at any second during the trading hours, no delay, the only problem you might face is that no buyers exist. That is something completely separate though.

What the crypto exchanges are doing is taking the Apple stock you think you bought and instead buy Wal-Mart. Hoping to pocket the difference when you eventually sell.

This works when the line goes up, or when you are a incredibly tightly regulated bank where the government through FDIC like schemes ensure that you will get your money back, even if the bank screws up.

I can explain why this isn't correct.

We have a concept of userspace for safety. Systems without protected memory are very unstable. The tradeoff is speed.

Trading speed for safety is extremely commonplace.

* Every assert or runtime validation

* Every time we guard against speculative execution attacks (enormous perf hits)

* Every time we implement a "safe" runtime like java

* process safety models using protected memory

Efficiency is one of many competing concerns in a complex system.
This is an honest answer. Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. I don't want to live in the same society as you, or be a part of one where people who share your opinion are the majority who get to make the rules.

It can work in a country like New Zealand that has -very- tight controls and people will readily report others for breaking the law. I think it will greatly reduce smoking.

Ah well sure but when the smoking rates drop low enough, smoking related healthcare costs greatly exceed the cigarette tax receipts. NZ is a small country and needs to contain the costs of its socialised healthcare. Is there a fundamental ‘right to give money to Tobacco companies’? Buying cigarettes is banned, smoking isn’t.
That is what the word FUD does. It equivocates every kind of criticism and then minimizes them. That is why I do not trust the use of the word. It is a calling card for rhetorical dishonesty.

Crime in NZ has been trending downwards for over a decade.

Reported crime does not equal actual crime. With police response time in the hours range, and a lack of prosecution, people increasingly don't bother reporting crime at all.

I remember once the emergency operator pretty much said "look it's going to take a couple of hours, do you really want to bother going through with this?". This was in a city about 2km from the police station.
Never realised the site was so bad... It's a fantastic tool, but it'd be nice if the site opened with why you'd want to use it, and what it can do, rather than jumping straight into user testimonials from people who mean nothing to you, followed by a complete nonsense "them vs us" image set. In what universe does a reencode-on-save using any of the dozens of normal tools that people use turn a normal video file into a 7 bit palette gif?
To add anecdata to your post here, in the height of the hiring craze last year, I accepted an "above-market" (from my perspective) offer from a company called Provi. They took less than a week from initial recruiter call to offer.

Fast forward to this past February, and I'm being let go for "performance reasons", but it's a lot clearer in retrospect that I should've been failed out of their interview process if it was any good, and that seeking to hire someone within a week is now sort of a yellow flag for me.

I want to move fast, but I also want my counter-party to do proper due diligence.
> reducing the number of applicants to the advertised job by 14%

does not mean

> spending 14% more on recruitment advertising

if a company gets 86 applicants instead of 100, that's less screening work which means less $ spent for the hire.
A pure fusion bomb would produce less (not zero) fallout. Neutron activation would still produce some fallout, but you wouldn't have the fission byproducts like caesium-137, iodine-129 or strontium-90.

Well put. For our international observers I would note that the War of Southern Aggression that began with the treasonous attack on Fort Sumter is nearly identical to the behavior we're seeing out of similar origins today. New US states were increasingly free rather than slave states, and thus when democracy wasn't going the way of those who wanted to maintain slavery, they attacked their own government.

The terrorist attack on January 6th was the exact same root cause, democracy not going the way some want it. Leading them to embrace terrorism and violence. After the Civil War, the KKK was created, which continued the terrorism of our citizenry for decades. Yet in that case, the KKK came after the failed attempt at succession, today MAGA came before the attempt.

I describe myself as a 'pre-MAGA Republican who supports labor unions', but there's a rotten seed in American discourse today that was always there and it's largely the same people then as now.

The south would have no chance in Round 2. Most of their money and manpower actually comes from 'Yankees'. Which historically when someone is called that, it's the easy indicator to who is loyal and true to the United States, a real American patriot. Whether spoken spoken by a Brit or Johnny Reb, you definitely want to be called a Yankee as it's a badge of honor that you are loyal to your nation.

Those that are moving south are whose ancestors' allegiance was to the United States of America in the Civil War, and they still maintain that allegiance to this day in those families. They are not loyal to the defunct Confederacy and would not die for their Lost Cause.
