Meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies evaluating the association of saturated fat with cardiovascular disease
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20071648/

> Conclusions: A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD. More data are needed to elucidate whether CVD risks are likely to be influenced by the specific nutrients used to replace saturated fat.

Evidence from randomised controlled trials did not support the introduction of dietary fat guidelines in 1977 and 1983: a systematic review and meta-analysis
https://openheart.bmj.com/content/2/1/e000196.short?rss=1&ut...

> Conclusion: Dietary recommendations were introduced for 220 million US and 56 million UK citizens by 1983, in the absence of supporting evidence from RCTs.

Nothing was reduced here. The BOP lists your estimated release date which includes good time that you have not lost.

You serve 85 percent of your sentence in the Feds if you don't lose goodtime. The numbers listed work out to 85% (there is a little bit of wonk in how they BOP calculates this number. It recently got changed as the BOP used math that reduced good time calculations and had to be told how to do math in the First Step act).

https://famm.org/wp-content/uploads/faq-federal-good-time-cr...

There have also been reductions via the First Step act but I don't know how that ended up. You got reductions for working at the Federal slave labor sweatshop (UNICOR) and for 'Programming' (taking their classes) but the BOP was fighting these pretty hard back when I was paying attention to these things a few years ago.

Part of what I remember about the process is that you don't actually get to speak to anyone until quite late in the process. I think I only finally got to jump into a call with the hiring manager after passing both the written essay and the personality test. I also have to admit Canonical was the first company to get back to me during my latest job search, and I the time I had no other offers so I just kept moving forward with them. Their process is relatively lengthy, however, so when I reached the offer stage I was interviewing with other companies and even had some verbal offers, so declining wasn't too hard.
I mean, we get to decide for them because copyright is an artificial limitation imposed by law on society to benefit creators.

It is a compromise between society and creators that is codified legislatively. We get to decide “for them”, because it’s an agreement between them and us (where the “them” and the “us” are actually both just the body poltic).

It’s a mistake to think of copyright as the natural order of things. It is a legislative creation, with the specific purpose of encouraging works entering the public domain, which is why we get to decide.

It's true that TLS 1.2 is still considered OK, but cacert now only serves on TLS 1.3, Windows 7's integrated HTTP stack only supports TLS 1.2 and below, and Scoop relies on using PowerShell or similar to download cacert before it can install curl, meaning I can no longer install curl that way on Windows 7 (still an OS nearly as usable as Windows 10 and Linux, though apps are sadly starting to drop support for it).

> If the current copyright scheme does not promote the progress of science and useful arts, it is not performing as intended. All these copyright extensions do little to promote progress!

This is a strawman argument - the parent poster that you're replying to is defending copyright as a concept, while the one that they're replying to is attacking it - you're instead making an argument about specific lengths that hasn't come up yet, and nobody is defending.

Very few people (and I am not one of them) think that the "Mickey Mouse curve" style of copyright extension is genuinely useful to anyone except Disney, but holmesworcester is arguing that copyright should be abolished entirely, which contradicts the section of the Constitution that you quoted.

The article says that federal prisoners' "good time" sentence reductions are automatically provided up front but you can lose good time and thus extend your sentence. That's smart thinking, to take advantage of loss aversion, a now-well-documented psychological phenomenon in behavioral economics [0].

(I do the same in my law-school classes: Students automatically get an up-front "signing bonus" for attendance in points on their final-grade total, but they can lose points by exceeding stated absence thresholds [1]. It works quite well for that purpose.)

> Then parents with money and pull in academic orgs will make sure that tuition will float just far enough above that limit that their children won't suffer from too much competition by the less fortunate

Universities do that already. "Need-based" financial aid ensures that the parental contribution is near the hardship threshold for low-income parents - tipping the scale toward those with greater ability to pay. And external scholarships are simply deducted from "financial need" and largely pocketed by the university (which usually prohibits the funds from being used to reduce the parental contribution.)

Isn't it wonderful to be in a business that requires customers to turn over their financial records and charges based on "ability to pay?"

I think the distinction is still important because it frames how you should write the test. Unit tests basically just assert that, given some inputs, the output of the "unit" is what you would expect. Integration tests, on the other hand, test the business logic that ties different units of code together, which changes the assertions to be less about the direct output and more about the state of the world. For example, if you have a Twilio wrapper, the tests for that wrapper are unit tests because you're just testing that the wrapper makes the correct HTTP calls, etc; but the code using that wrapper should be tested via integration tests to ensure that the correct calls are made, that state transitions are handled properly, etc.

This might sound like a meaningless distinction, but I've found that a large portion of bad tests that I've seen in practice were integration tests written in the style of unit tests (i.e. treating stateful code as if it were just a pure function of its inputs).

Given that integration testing is inherently harder (as you've alluded to), I'd rather see more unit tests, but that requires an architecture that breaks code down into as small and focused of units as possible (e.g. a functional style), which isn't always feasible for practical reasons.

How has there been a wipeout of civic life? Since the time of the boomers, we've seen the end of colonialism in Africa and elsewhere, the civil rights movement in the states, equality for women, gay rights, overall a massive relaxation of rigid social norms. Just because old people remember halcyon times does not mean it was actually so.

We've seen massive decreases in disease and infant mortality. Poor people in third world countries live longer, are healthier, and even grow taller.

Communication and IT used to be horrendous, and horrendously expensive. Now even homeless people in Africa (where I'm from) have extremely connected supercomputers in their pockets.

Mean and median wealth and income has skyrocketed in real and nominal terms. There's no perspective on median income and wealth that is both bleak and based on facts. This is true for the human population and especially for the US.

And don't give me "inequality has gone up". It was very high, then it dipped, now it's going back up. What difference does it make - your life is much better, no matter who you are and where you live. Who cares if the richest person has ten yachts or twenty.

Pessimism is a procrastination tactic.

I got a score of 96 on my ASVAB and made the decision to pursue a career in Infantry as an MOS 11-B after completing OSUT. As a highlight, I had the opportunity to attend Airborne School, which was an incredible experience. At that time, when I was 20 years old, the Army offered a substantial $60,000 signing bonus, the highest among all branches (save the Navy). Although I did explore the possibility of joining the Navy, they turned me down due to my GED qualification.

Fast forward to today, at 39 years old, I can honestly say that despite some challenges with my lower back, I have absolutely no regrets about the path I chose.

I wouldn't have a problem with requiring everything to at least be in a namespace, though it needn't be enforced at the language level (vs a linter rule).
The problem we’re discussing isn’t “not paying attention while driving”, it’s attention fatigue bought on by requiring constant focus but not actually requiring any actions to be taken.

The former is “it turned at an intersection without checking for obstacles” which is driver error. The latter is something that we know objectively that people cannot do. For the non-car cases where this occurs we can generally have many factors to ensure a safe outcome even if an emergency does occur when the operators is distracted. For aircraft the emergency outcomes basically have one of two responses, or there is time for the pilot to regain situational awareness (it takes a lot of time for a plane to go from altitude to sea level, for every other emergency the pilot is trained and commercial aircraft often explicitly state the operation to perform - go up or go down. Trains are spaced so that a train can always just apply emergency brakes, and the driver(engineer?) also knows to just brake as well.

The problem with the self driving “attention” requirement is because they have chosen not to handle “emergency/failure occurs while driver is not paying attention”, instead they’re saying “you must always pay attention despite that demand being physiologically implausible” which means you get two outcomes: either the product does not work, or you get crashes from self drive disengaging without warning. The former results in people trying to hack around a faulty product, the latter is a liability shift “if the driver was paying attention as required this crash wouldn’t have happened”.

My unit of information is "the idea" and they all go into a single markdown file with a Markdown heading. The ideas are numbered and I use internal page GitHub anchor links to link between headings.

I had a WikidPad Wiki (python desktop based wiki software for Windows and Linux) that has 1000 entries. There was a number of pages that were long. But wikilinks in that wiki were often definitional (rather than explain inline, they had their own page) and multiple pages linked to them. The homepage of the wiki is a launching pad for links to other pages.

That wiki is a design of my ideal computer system, it's on GitHub as idea-wiki.

I think I prefer the all in one file thing because I don't need lots of very small files with very little information in. I also read over my notes regularly.

If you want value from your notes I feel you can read over them regularly.
I don't open 400 at once, they accumulate over time (I mostly open about 50-200 at once).
