I’m usually not more than casually interested in this kind of work (both generally biology stuff and specifically weight related stuff) but I found this to be absolutely fascinating.

Briefly, this post appears to lay out compelling evidence that the obesity epidemic has its root in some kind of environmental “contaminant” — something new in the environment in the last 100 years, that became prevalent in the 80s, and follows some physical laws like accumulating in watersheds etc.

However I have no idea if any of it is remotely reasonable, I don’t have the skill to read the linked studies, etc. Anyone here have experience with this blog and can speak to whether I’m going down some weird conspiracy rabbit hole?
I worked at two other places that did this. It was expensive as all get out but provided a great dev experience. One place adopted Kubernetes super duper early (2016) to containerize these environments and save money. I wish I got on that train; my colleague who did made out much better than me! Not sure about the other one.
I’m waiting to hear solutions … or do you only have criticisms?

And how far do you take that? We can’t produce a world without deviance so we should just let it slide?

We want to believe attraction and desire is more free will then it is (vs hormones and brain chemistry), and there is uncertainty of whether a relationship will persist when birth control use changes.

> But an even bigger positive is what comes when we look at the divorce rate. Despite the whole my-sex-life-is-meh-and-I-am-not-that-attracted-to-my-partner thing, women who chose their partners when they were on the pill were significantly less likely to divorce than women who chose their partners when they were off it (!!!).

> This suggests that being on the pill may lead women to choose partners who are good resource providers and willing to stick with them through thick and thin (hence the lower divorce rate and greater satisfaction with resource investment). However, equally as noteworthy, this research found that when these pill-taking women did get divorced, they were overwhelmingly the ones who initiated it (they were the initiators 84.5 percent of the time, compared to being the initiators 73.6 percent of the time among those who chose their partners when not on the pill). This suggests that, in choosing these faithful, resource-investing men as partners (and at the expense of sexiness), pill-taking women may be putting themselves at risk for becoming dissatisfied with their relationship due to a lack of attraction and sexual satisfaction if they ever go off of it.

I suggest imagining it as "what can I do that will actually affect change?" rather than "what does activism normally look like?"

In my case:

* Switch to a bank that supports poor people rather than exploits them (overdraft fees are a racket). Beneficial Bank and Amalgamated Bank look viable.

* Boycott exploitative companies and be vocal to friends and family about it. Support equitable companies.

* Support affordable housing development in my neighborhood.

* Join a group dedicated to the cause. Maybe People's Action.

* Keep educating myself to be able to persuade others effectively.

* Form real relationships and community with poor people.

* Participate in local government (just participate, not necessarily serve).

Stuff like that. You get the idea.

If you’re a man who doesn’t want children or has finished having children: get a vasectomy. They’re easy, low risk and help reduce the (significant) contraceptive burden on partners.

(Although technically a vasectomy is reversible, it isn’t guaranteed and so a vasectomy is not a good option if you intend to have children someday)

The major issue Racket has is the same one other functional languages have: its hard to find any developers who know those languages or are willing to work in them. There are compelling arguments for functional programming[0] and I enjoyed programming in both Racket and Chez Scheme in college but I never bothered putting it on my resume because functional programming isn't widely used.

The corporate world is mostly obsessed with OOP to the extent that every new imperative/procedural language like Go or Rust has to pretend to be OOP to get corporate adoption. Functional languages can't pretend to be OOP so they can't get past the corporate filter except at a handful of firms that use them for competitive advantage.

It also isn't easy to get the few functional programming jobs that do exist because they're often looking for developers who already have professional functional programming experience and that isn't easy to get unless you're already at a company that uses functional programming.

[0]: One of the most compelling pro-functional programming arguments is this one which argues that mutable state (being able to alter a variable's value after you set it) and variables being able to be null are harmful like GOTO statements: https://spectrum.ieee.org/functional-programming

Do you think Wegovy/Ozempic/Mounjaro also work due to placebo effect? It seems that over the past decade or two we’ve discovered (some elements of) the sophisticated physiological mechanism by which we regulate appetite, and it involves the production of various hormones within our lower intestinal tract. When some fad diet produces sharp appetite reduction, my general question is: what’s more reasonable? To assume placebo or disruption of this mechanism?

At very least I think it’s useful to reinterpret these extreme fad diet weight loss results in light of this knowledge, rather than defaulting to the (now obsolete) understanding that appetite is primarily determined by psychological effects.
I'm absolutely thrilled using Godot and Bevy for hobby projects.

That's true, it's important to recognize the problems and start working on them.

It sucks that you had to quit. I was advising the same to my girlfriend because she couldn't bear with work anymore, until a friend told her that she should not quit and instead the company should pay the burnout because they put her in that situation. Luckily she didn't follow my advise and it's been in burnout leave for the last 6 months, with help from a therapist.
This makes sense and isn’t like the shitshow OP is talking about though. I initially assumed the same thing as you, but after reading the OP, the title is the least scary part of their situation by far.

At google it has been kinda similar to what you describe for the most part. You got a beefy (depending on your situation, you could end up lucky and snag a powerful 256GB RAM one with bajillion cores) cloud machine into which you SSH or use VSCode Remote with (or the google in-browser code editor running Monaco aka same engine as VSCode that is compatible with most usual VSCode extensions). I was apprehensive at first, but the convenience of “it just werks” is difficult to beat, especially when all of it is integrated well and is the default way of doing things.

With that, it takes me less than an hour to go from a brand new machine to building my code and running it like usual (just gotta set the dotfiles for the terminal emulator and the shell + some .zshrc tweaks). No code ever lives locally, so it takes a lot of pressure off. The only downside is being screwed with no internet access, but it has not been an issue so far in my years working there.

If i left my laptop at home or something happened to it? No problem, grabbed a loaner laptop, logged in, set it up in under an hour, and it works just as good for the basic work tasks regardless of whether it is macOS or chromeOS or Linux. The whole pain of setting up the environment is straight up gone, and it lets the devs use whichever desktop environment they prefer (as the cloud machines run a flavor of linux anyway, and your laptop OS becomes entirely a personal preference).
No, that is not the precedent set here. A legal claim was brought against the defendant, but (the judge found) that some of the evidence didn't have a specific property (copyright). Also the case was done in civil court, which has different rules and procedures than criminal court. This case is not about what one person did during the day.
He found a niche in a Japanese exchange that was difficult to break into due to onerous banking regulations. Made a nice little chunk of change but it was a small potatoes thing. The numbers only look big because it was early days of crypto and the inherent inflation was through the roof.
Would you trust such a person not to throw others around them under the bus to benefit themselves if they are left free to exploit such opportunities in daily life, even once they are no longer CEOs of anything?

I wouldn't. I used to have such faith in humans once, but, well, lead in toddler food.
Yes, but I'd counter that by saying the difference is in its reproducibility. Given the same inputs to the machine (AI model, [copyrighted] training data, prompt, seed), you will get out the exact same output. It's a mechanical derivation of the original works, and therefore, a copyright violation. On the other hand, humans do not work that way, you can't point humans at the same works and get identical outputs. I'm not 1000% sold on this interpretation, but I think it is a reasonable one.

A good counter to that is that the training data that was chosen as an input, and the prompt, are sufficiently original to count as their own work. Kind of like how an artist might use a copyrighted stamp to create their own work (Campbell soup cans).

And a good counter to that is that a translation of a book into another language is still considered a derivation of the original work, not its own work, despite requiring a whole lot of creative human input on the part of the translator.

I don't know!
I agree. With noscript enabled I could not see anything but this popup, and the giant 404 in it made me think for a second that the article didn't exist anymore or was behind a paywall.
That doesn't hold though, especially the part about stored digitally as then every movie and TV show that is streamed would no longer be copyrighted.

As for easily recreated, it is not hard for anyone to make a wooden block and then use it to make prints but if you made a wooden block print of Campbells soup cans you would probably face a copyright claim from Andy Warhol depending on the "look" of the print.

Only had 2 newish cars where I’ve used the dealerships, previous cars I just used a local garage.

I’m UK based. Hyundai lost my key. Nissan were just generally useless all round and I’d have to wait ages for anything, including key retrieval.

The woman at Nissan argued with me when my car broke down that I wasn’t due a courtesy car. The RAC driver said I was and when I called the Nissan line they gave me one.

Upon picking my car up I scored the woman down on the feedback sheet. When she asked why I said it’s because she said I wasn’t due a courtesy car and I would have been hundreds out of pocket had I taken her word for it. She then proceeded to argue with me that I wasn’t due a courtesy car despite having had one for 2 weeks.

This is really good news, I support artists but these short sighted individuals if successful in these claims will just build a world that harms artists as these tools wont cease to exist they'll just be put behind the paywalls of some of the richest companies in the world which then will be able to change what they want.

TBH this does sound like a real jerk comment (especially given the lack of any ability to travel backwards in time), but it is nonetheless correct. IME, the less they have of that stuff the less the less they'll want it.

Still, different kids are different. When dealing with a kid who's lost their mind due to hunger (and for those who doubt, that's a real thing, not an exaggeration), having to choose between offering healthy food or no food can be a no-win situation.

Do you have a rough timeline rolling out a better search? It's the biggest issue I have.
Super common problem in big enterprise. Falls into three categories:

1. You can't code locally (because of super locked down computers) and have to use a VDI

2. You can code locally (I.e. your machine has an IDE) but tests and builds happen in a dev environment, or

3. You can code and test locally, but your build process is so environment-dependent, doing so is pointless.

How would decentralized retail prevent this? If anything it would be worse.
Only if you need the auditability at that granular a level.

For us, each user has (for the most part) their own data key, and most of the time a user is accessing their own data. So we can decrypt the key once and then cache it for the rest of the user's session. This tells us "the user accessed their private data", so we don't get the per value auditability, but for us that was sufficient. If you want, you could even have different data keys based on sensitivity, e.g. a user's name, phone, address is encrypted with one data key but their SSN or credit info is encrypted with another.
I think 1LimX has the advantages:

Cross-platform: its available on Microsoft Windows Store, iPhone, iPad, Mac Apple Store, Android Play Store, Linux Snapcraft Store and as standalone installers.

It's easy to setup and demo, tutorials are available in depth.

A more user-friendly interface, every process is made as simple as possible so user can understand with zero knowledge.

For example, if you wish to encrypt a text or file, all you’ll need to do is simply input the text and files.

Pre-made information template data to waste you no more time such as Credit Card, Address, Bank Account, Passport, Driver license,... not just password.

Also the encryption speed is fast and tested for large files. I have tested on an iPhone XS encryption took 3-4 minutes of an 10.6 GB file (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBxbJAR1DLk), on MacBook M1 Pro 14 inch encryption took 1m21s with the same file (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Irb3bQQv6Y).

The 4040 has a very narrow range of permissible clock cycles in the datasheet (1.35-2 µs), which makes me think it uses dynamic logic, so the tolerance for higher/lower clocks is likely quite limited.

One should ask, does having such navigation advances take away the skill from learning the actual underground in this scenario.

The underground isn't hard and that, I find, when you go to any country that to learn the subway it is a stressful but exciting experience. I was recently in Calgary and ended up going the wrong way on the transit. Hey, I may of loss five minutes but just hop over to the other side and catch the other transit the other way.

To be able to get to A to B without any prior knowledge other than to know to catch the Waterloo line is an experience.

But yes, on the other side for tourists or those outside the native language it does make their life easier. Who can read a map nowadays anyway?

In a previous company, we'd have people making direct edits in Salesforce. We'd then export the edits with the Salesforce CLI "force" utility, bring it into a local git repo, run some rather buggy scripts that would change the object namespaces/prefixes to a generic prefix. Then you could finally do a diff and a PR in a normal way.

We then had other scripts that would take the "generic" code and change the namespaces/prefixes for upload into QA or prod environments. It was quite painful.
No it's not at all a first world perspective. I live in the so called developing nations.
