Haven't heard anyone talk about the Shangri-La diet in ages. I did a slight variation of this for awhile way back in my 30s at it worked great. Recently testing this out with OMAD but haven't been doing it long enough to see if it is workable. I'm in my 50s now and a lot of things that worked wonders in my 30s do not work as well as they once did.
My experience with those (and German companies) is that it tends to be using the US employees as an innovation hub, which in practice means we get the projects that are more likely to fail, because that is less culturally embarrassing here.

This approach can’t work with advanced semiconductor manufacturing for a number of reasons but primarily the same factors that drove Intel’s adoption of “Copy Exactly!”

Maintenance of lipid concentration when formed.

The aggregation of the tiny setpoints creates your larger setpoint by either drawing out from or pushing into your bloodstream the lipids that they have.

This is one of the most infuriating things about the "you just need to eat less" crowd. That's simply the first step. But you somehow need to maintain that for years while your body readjusts since fat cells turn over fairly slowly in your body (about 20-25% per year).

Maintaining a lower body weight while your body is actively fighting you for years is a superhuman level of willpower that very few of us can muster.

Relevant to that is the fact that the author of urrlib3 stopped collaborating with the author of "requests" because the latter was misusing the popularity of the library in fundraising for what seemed entirely personal goals, while advertising "new features in requests" that where in fact just urrlib3 features he planned to also expose in "requests".

As I understand it, a good investment portfolio is one that increases in value faster than inflation. A single investment though can be at inflation or even generate slight negative returns if it's role is as a hedge to sacrifice some of your overall upside to limit your downside risk. Did I get that wrong?
EV fires are just an artifact of the first generation battery chemistry. Within a few years EVs will largely have switched to LFP and nobody will worry about it any more. I mean, car fires still happen, ICE vehicles are much more prone to fire than EVs for example, but LFP has a much less flammable electrolyte.
> one interesting advantage of the Twitter model is that it allows easy quoting/replying/liking of individual paragraphs / sentences.

Agree, it's interactive. It's built to involve you and the audience in a very democratically equal way. Everything is a conversation instead of a soliloquy (blog).

HN also offers the same conversational interaction (with much better moderation). It's what pulls us in. It's interesting to see that every comment on HN, for example, is also an original, stand-alone post where you too become an author on this system : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34252904 : it's very balanced for all participants.

It's hard not to get pulled in by this conversational aspect on Twitter (and similar) when you have (1) a voice and (2) it's generally built to be equal within the system (if we gloss over some issues created by the number of followers that give some users a much greater voice). There's a sense of ownership that comes with this.

Sure it does - it says:

* ACME is a badly designed standard, a mess of binary-in-base64-in-json-in-canonical-form-hashed-sent-over-http-sent-over-ssl. The author doesn't like it.

* LE invented ACME, and can only be used via ACME

Personally I don't know enough about ACME to say whether the author is right or not - but I've worked with SAML so I know if extensible human-readable text formats are a foot then digital signatures are a gun.
I've wanted that for the longest time. You know the feeling. You mostly write something like Java and Bazel works fantastically at that. But then you find out you need about 100 lines of C code in your build to do some specific thing Java can't do, and suddenly you've opened pandora's box because compiling native code across platforms is a nightmare. Life would be so much easier if we could just vendor a 40kb prebuilt Linux binary that could run on all the other platforms too. All you need now to do that, is a few additional ~200kb blink binaries.
"As Chief Executive Officer at DELTA AIR LINES, INC., Edward H. Bastian made $12,360,420 in total compensation. Of this total $950,000 was received as a salary, $3,038,542 was received as a bonus, $4,125,062 was received in stock options, $4,125,186 was awarded as stock and $121,630 came from other types of compensation. This information is according to proxy statements filed for the 2021 fiscal year."

Salary is often one of the smallest parts of a CEO's compensation, so it doesn't mean a whole lot. It's better than nothing, though.

Everyone is addicted to food - what you're describing sounds like a great way to set yourself up for failure.

You can eat socially, you can have days you overeat and then fast the difference, etc. Pigeonholing yourself to super restrictive regimen - for what ? It's not like you have a deadline to lose the weight - and if your routine isn't easily sustainable you're just going to revert to old behavior as soon as something else starts taking your focus.

The only thing that matters with these things is trends and long term adherence.

An additional problem, in addition to the major one that trash trucks don't spend any significant period of time on major streets or consolidated routes, is that there is no readily available product for dynamic rewiring of trolley poles. The operator would have to come to a complete stop, exit the vehicle, and align the poles each time they turned onto an electrified street. This would add considerable time to the route and create a traffic disruption and safety problem for the operators. This could probably be addressed with some robotics and machine vision, but that's a whole new technology to develop that would still require years to be ready for use at city scale.

Overhead charging systems with automatic connection for buses have been developed by a couple of vendors (e.g. OppCharge) but are only used while stationary and have not achieved wide deployment. Wireless charging via pavement-embedded coils is actually a much better established technology and is in reasonably wide use for electric buses, but also hasn't been demonstrated in motion and is even more expensive to install than overhead catenaries.

That's a very special case though since it's hardware optimized to work up to a cache line at a time, and not at all related to the syscall cost that was mentioned in the parent comment.
What finally got me on right way on controlling hunger was just getting used to eating once a day and dropping a lot of the quick-burning foods that made me go hungry quicker. Not necessarily going super healthy but stuff like eating less bread/pasta and more say baked potatoes so still nice tasty food that doesn't get me into diet sadness mood, just shifting away from carbs

Also figuring out when I'm "brain hungry" (brain is bored and wants to munch on something/get reward for hard day at work) and when I'm "body hungry" (body actually wants some energy and is slowing down, fingers/feet getting colder etc.).
Trying getting fat by eating healthy food instead of burger/fries/coke. Drink alone make a huge difference. On the long run, drinking soda instead of water can make you obese.
I'll add this since I don't see it here, see if you can find someone with industry experience to mentor you. I have 12 years of experience and mentored a family member who has successfully moved over from an unrelated field to tech. It's something I was happy to do, but required commitment from him. I gave him a coding project (he actually never finished the project but learned a lot). I also coached him on what to look for in a job and what to focus on learning.

Alternatively I think coding bootcamp or community college classes are a great way to show initiative and get interviews.

I can confirm, these symptoms will help you lose weight, but I mean that tounge in cheek, I hope this drug helps a lot of people but doesn't have much in the way of side effects.
… well, I kinda like ACME. It's one of the few actually RESTful protocols out there, so it is quite straight-forward to navigate. The media types are well specified compared to some HTTP APIs.¹

certbot (presuming that's the thing she's talking about the code quality of) can be a bit hard to interface with if you stray outside the default set of use cases, IMO. I don't know why it would be shelling out to openssl, though, when Python has cryptography, which is IMO one of the most pleasant libraries to work with if you need to build X.509 certs or CSRs etc. as it represents those things directly and plainly, and doesn't get in the way.

… if the issuance limits on some random third party CA are a problem, … Let's Encrypt has generous limits.

¹my last experience was Github's API … which will happily have an attribute that's an enum, but not tell you what the variants are. Like … seriously? Azure's docs/data structs permit representing many illegal values easily, and don't document, e.g., when two things are mutually exclusive. The lack of REST in Azure's API means what could have easily been just a single attribute holding a URL gets broken out into 5 different attributes strewn across 3 different structs, a VM's initial image, I am looking at you.
Setting aside semantic debates, I agree that progress is slow. In my opinion progress like this is always extremely slow and hard fought. People rarely give up power or resources out of the goodness of their hearts.

For example, on these pages I see plenty of debate about whether we should expand healthcare, tax the wealthy, enforce stricter environmental laws, and so forth. If the netizens of Slacker News can't reach consensus how can we expect the wide world to come together?

Personally, I try not to get swept up in all these currents. I'm just another worker ant in the colony. So I try to focus on what I can do myself and around me.
I think I've solved this for myself. I'm a concept-first learner too, but don't have that much of a problem learning ad-hoc details of random libraries and tools. I think what's going on is that, at some point early on, my brain figured out that if the thing doesn't seem to fit a coherent, sensible concept, then there's likely a story explaining the delta. I started to think mostly in terms of guessing what kind of problems and tradeoffs the author faced, which would explain the peculiar design. I found myself searching for information about past iterations, previous use cases - anything that could let me correctly guess at the story behind the seemingly random thing.

This works for me pretty well in software. I still have problems with things requiring memorization, though - like some bits of chemistry, or the grammar of German language.
Extensive testing shows dogs' tails are not used for stabilization
I don’t think they are particularly accurate either and I know self reported calorie counts aren’t accurate either.

The important thing here is that a 1200 calorie diet for someone that big is an extreme outlier and I’d like to know what the actual protocol was.

If there wasn’t a lot of consideration about actual composition of diet or if this was a longer term protocol I’d be extra leery of it.

You can be healthy with a zero calorie diet if done correctly and for the proper time period, but you should be consulting an expert if you do.

And for anecdata I’m 6’0, 215 and 45. 1700 calories is a crash diet for me.
As I already explained, fitting all my stuff at once has nothing to do with it.
We’re a macOS house that uses Jamf for management and Microsoft Defender ATP for Anti-Malware.

Defender ATP gives great reporting but the performance impact on endpoints is obscene. During onboarding for Developers we go through the Xcode Command Line Tools and Homebrew installation, if ATP has already been installed it adds somewhere between 20 and 40 minutes to the installation time.

I’ll get some pricing for Jamf Protect and if it’s competitively priced I’ll see about moving us over. I’d much rather be using something built-in than a poorly optimised solution.
I like to consider the “big” aspects as the top-down social/experiential/phenomenological side.

I think the future of ev psych is more in the bottom-up: what the evolutionary sub modules are and how do they articulate with each other to produce aspects of awareness/behavior — the stuff the Salk Institute is doing with using ML/AI to understand cognition, for example.

The minority of Republicans that are currently blocking the process are the QAnon crew -- who seemingly won't settle for anything less than extreme. The "alienation" is a tactic of the hardliners, trying to use their lynchpin status to gain greater influence.

I don't think that study (coincidentally from the maker's of semaglutide!) is answering quite the same question I'm asking, since it only looked at people aged 20-65 that were still alive without considering the difference in average lifespan.

If an obese person's healthcare costs an extra $2,000 annually for each of the age years covered in the study, that's $90,000 over their lifetime (ignoring inflation/time value of money to keep the numbers simple). But older people tend to have disproportionately higher healthcare costs.

To be kinda crass: If hypothetically obese people die at the age of 70 instead of 75, those 5 years of health care they don't need might have cost more than $90,000. Just a few ER or ICU visits can exceed that $90,000 amount, and the gap gets even starker if you take into account things like long term care and assisted living.

Another way to look at it, even staying within the 20-65 age group, is as a form of survivorship bias (or maybe there's a better term? Seems kinda bayesian but my stats days are well behind me)

For an extreme example, pretend that some adults take up the hobby of BASE jumping, and I have a study showing that their healthcare costs $10,000 per year, vs only $5,000/yr for non-base jumpers. A non-basejumping adult only needs $225k of healthcare before they become a senior citizen, but a basejumper needs $450k! So basejumping increases overall costs in the healthcare system, right?

But wait! BASE jumping is a dangerous activity (hence the medical bills), and many BASE jumpers die young. Let's say that every year 5% of BASE jumpers have fatal accidents, which means that the average base jumper dies around the age of 33. A BASE jumper who only needs medical care for 13 years doesn't cost the full $450k, they would only use $130k of healthcare. Which actually makes their lifetime medical bills much cheaper than that of a non-jumper!

While there are certainly political aspects, there are still technical issues that are hard to overcome. Palm has tried the "pure" Web-only approach and one of the main issues there was the inability to cache compiled code in a straightforward way -- the V8 compilation result is hard to untangle from the current context, partially due to the dynamic nature of the language -- leading to long app startup times. I hope that WebASM will finally fix this problem.

It's definitely possible to cause browser failures with pure CSS if you figure out how to stress the renderer. For example, if your set of transforms and animations require the browser to allocate lots of temporary surfaces, it can run out of RAM (or VRAM) and then the tab might get killed to free up resources. This is more likely to happen on mobile, but it can happen on desktop too.
