From the abstract: "Exposure therapy showed... a negligible effect relative to other trauma-focused treatments or medication."

Anyway, from my understanding, medications for treating PTSD are less effective than medications for other mental disorders. I'm waiting for the day that PTSD medications catch up, because therapeutic treatment for PTSD is currently centered on reducing discomfort, without much hope for remission, which feels like a dim outlook.
I would argue free speech is much more preferred as a citizen of one of these countries as too many are walking around convinced their understanding of facts is truth when it is in truth not.

Free speech is a necessity learned from the past horrors of fascism.

> There weren't serious writers in TV before?

To be fair kind of.. Before the 2000s were few shows had complex plots which developed over several episodes. Basically every episode basically had to work on a standalone basis. So compared to movies writing in tv shows was mediocre at best. Although I agree that we're probably past the peak (~2010 +- 10 years)
> It doesn't take long for the basal rate to fall to whatever your intake is because the system evolved to naturally have a lot of room to spare

All this is accounted for in this sentence of my post:

> your base metabolic rate also changes as your weight does, so re-baselining by continually measuring caloric intake and your weight to recalibrate is always going to be necessary

If you’re actually measuring yourself at the scale to get the ground truth of your actual metabolic rate, and you’re doing this every single day, then there isn’t a single thing that can change this: UCP1 adaptations, fat viruses, leptin changes, hormones, stress… all of this is covered by the actual weight on the scale. If I ate X calories and gained Y lbs, I need to adjust my calories by Z, no matter the reason I gained those pounds.

You can argue that such a diet is too hard, and that for some people the adjustment to your calories is going to leave you essentially starving, but it doesn’t change the truth of the matter that it will work if you do it right. Now, whether it’s worth it for people, and whether the process is going to leave you utterly miserable or even extremely unhealthy as a result, I’m making no claim on.

You focus on carbs specifically, but IF is about all calories being eliminated for periods, and it doesn’t necessarily mean you eat plenty on the break days (if you take break days at all - some people exist on 16:8 or 20:4 or whatever perpetually). I think you have something important here but the wording is ambiguous and I am wondering if you can clarify your thinking?

Are you saying only carbs matter with respect to leptin?
Nailed it.

In fact, individual contributor salaries were public and constituted ~80% of the company's entire annual budget. Rent, utilities and all management salaries were contained in the remaining 20%.
France made their grid essentially Carbon free in 20 years using nuclear, and got it down 30 years ago.

Germany has also been struggling with its nuclear-free "Energiewende" for 20 years, and isn't half done with it. And that was the easy half.

Germany's "cheap" renewables-based electricity is the 2nd most expensive in the EU. France's "expensive" nuclear electricity is around half that price, slightly below the EU average price. And France was (and still is) using reliable/cheap nuclear electricity to subsidize other parts of the economy, whereas Germany has the rest of the economy subsidizing renewables.

Energy intensive industries are moving out of Germany, just recently the Supreme Court ruled the various budget tricks the government used to hide the true cost as unconstitutional. The very first attempts to actually reflect those costs in the real budget have sparked protests the likes of which Germany hasn't seen in some time.

Not only that, but there is more than enough legitimately antisemitic or pro-terrorism content on these platforms for this to be fully legitimate reporting behavior.

It could be 100,000 posts and this would still be near meaningless without actual context on what is being reported. 1000 posts is a joke.

I don't see your criticism at all, and I don't think there's anything aggressive or vitriolic here.

The article is specifically a rebuttal to a Wirecutter review, so the target audience is really anyone who cares what Wirecutter thinks about purifiers (a lot of people rely on it to guide their buying decisions, after all), and perhaps the staff at Wirecutter.

I can't speak to the article's technical accuracy, but it appears to do a good job of systematically breaking down their analysis using technical arguments, visualizations, and math.
Reminds me of when one of my subordinates applied for an apartment and as part of the process the property management people reached out to me to verify his employment.

How? By forwarding me his unredacted application chock full of PII. When I pointed out that most people probably wouldn't appreciate their SSN and more being shot around in emails by the management company, I was simply told it was "standard practice" for them. Following insinuations that their "standard practices" might just be "fucked" were summarily ignored.
This is not a new problem, and there is no silver bullet that will solve it. Just a long sequence of incremental improvements that will make the difference over decades.

In the Nordics, the solution is primarily hydro + wind + nuclear, with cogeneration from district heating and industrial processes. Old-style power plants that generate electricity by burning fuels are largely obsolete, and the cogeneration plants are also phasing out fossil fuels. The solution is within reach, but it took decades to get there.

Other regions will need other solutions.

Strawman. I never claimed Bitcoin is the only hedge. Certainly gold has it s place.

Lightning network fees are negligible. So that argument doesn't hold either.
You're summing up a pretty wide spectrum of things as "distrust". If a junior engineer says they understand what I'm asking for and will deliver it in 2 weeks, but actually they don't fully understand and will deliver half of it in 3 weeks, I wouldn't typically characterize that as them lying or being untrustworthy. But it's a problem that's a lot easier to detect and solve in person. (It's also, not coincidentally, a problem that Linux kernel devs generally don't need to worry about - there's no Linux Dev Inc. whose next big contract will fall through if a project doesn't finish on time.)
My favorite part about this is that a lot of the rights holders are losing their shirts on their alternative streaming services, because it turns out making content is different than running a profitable streaming service. Peacock and Disney+ are losing huge money, Amazon is introducing commercials or an upcharge to their service because they've been spending on their own content with abandon (I can't imagine why WoT costs per episode what I read it costs), and I don't know how appletv+ is doing in 2023 but in 2022 and 2021 they were also losing huge sums of money. Is netflix the only major streaming service that makes money at this point?

Everyone decided "I can cut out the middleman and keep the money in my pocket" and they all lost hugely on that strategy.

The bitcoin network is best suited for storing and moving large amounts of monetary energy. Compared to any other monetary system, it does this the most efficiently (i.e. with the least amount of energy loss), both during storage and during transfer.

Note that the transfer of monetary value/energy is final settlement (i.e. it's not just an IOU that will be settled at later date, like most bank payments).

Ultimately the base layer network will be used for settlement between banks, national reserve asset/currency etc. and faster, cheaper payment rails will be built on top of it (e.g. the Lightning Network)

> If this is true, if Israel was really in cahoots to censor anything pro-Palestinian or anti-Israeli, I wish they would do a better job. I would pay $100/month to each of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to get a Palestine/Israel-free feed.

Just add mute words in Twitter for Israel, Palestine and a few variants and you can ignore what is going on really easily. I did this for Elon and Musk and it made the platform much more bearable for me.

Well, unfortunately social media doesn't stop wars, otherwise it would have stopped by now based on likes and retweets. I think a lot of people think it does, but social media has little affect on politicians.
I do, probably because of my particular flavor of strong introversion.

Except, some jobs really really don't require much if any collaboration. We've been having to come back into the office since last September. In all that time, I've only spoken to another person a single time. Literally one hour in one day in the past 5 months. All meetings are still over zoom and when I'm not in a meeting, I just find some place in the building to sit and work. Except many people still weren't coming in since september and now they have cracked down on it and said people must be in the office and they are checking badge check-ins and the ip address of where our work laptops are being used to see if they are on the campus network or not. The result is tons of people are here now, but there isn't room for them. Before the pandemic, the company started getting rid of cubicles and moving to rooms full of desks and you just find somewhere to sit. But they don't have enough places to sit for everyone so if you don't get here early, you just end up sitting on the floor or wandering around. It is crazy how much lost productivity we are experiencing.
I wish they shared more info about what the deluxe version includes. I have a small business with very simple operations, but that often precludes me from using other tax filing software. They don't seem to have any info on whether they cover that in any of their versions.
Indeed. Then again "the news" is well known for carefully editorialising things and conflating unverified sources as facts on and off. General journalistic standards have been compromised because there's a race to get the information in front of people faster than social media and it is now seen as ok to correct it later. This is mostly online though. Print and televised media is usually not as real time.

Everything is a shit show.
Censorship actually does happen. In the case of the Gaza war, there's a bunch of evidence. Your refutation doesn't offer much argument: Saying it's impossible a priori is obviously false. Saying you see allegedly censorable content argues, to a degree, against a strawperson: That if censorhips worked there would be no such content.

Here's a bizarre story about quitting. When I was at Microsoft, I had a manager who, despite good intentions, led through fear and paranoia. I had gotten yelled at for causing a production incident, which was not the first time, but that week I started having some very strange dreams involving seeing the number "69" in different places. Just some juvenile humor maybe, I just dismissed it.

In the meantime, gradually this idea of quitting popped up and felt like a crazy, radical, awesome idea -- and I told him I was leaving immediately, fuck 2 weeks notice, etc. I was excited and terrified of him. Well, he told me the processing would still take a few days no matter what, and once we finalized it, my official last day was... June 9. 6/9

Then I worked at Expedia, had a rough experience with a manager there, and wouldn't you know it I had the magic number appear in my dreams again. 3 months in, cya. Call it superstition, or classical conditioning, but I don't really regret it.
> I'm not sure I have seen a single post ono any of those platforms which more than 50 comments which did not have at least one "ceasefirenow", palestinian flag and watermelon emoji, or in the case of facebook, a crude palestinian flag from different colored emojis.

> At any rate, all of them had lastingly bad metabolic adaptation, even if those who exercised more had it worse.

Yes, but as I read it, they all lastingly changed the level of exercise they were getting, and the extent of the "bad" metabolic adaptation seemed to correlate strongly with how big of a lasting change they made in exercise.

> In other studies (alluded to here as those where participants don't undergo anything so extreme), exercise is both a strong predictor of long-term weight-loss success, and can dampen metabolic adaptation (since more muscle and good cardiovascular shape boosts metabolism, usually).

Yes, trading fat for muscle increases your baseline caloric consumption, but that's not the same as long-term weight-loss.

I'm curious about what studies you've seen, because I've seen several other studies that suggest the opposite: that diet is a stronger predictor than exercise of long-term weight-loss success, and this analysis suggests that the more exercise the more likely it is that it will feed in to metabolic adaptation.

> I'm not sure what the lesson is yet, but I would hazard that, in the long-term, it's more important to sustain tracking energy balance (sustainability of your diet is #1). Moderate exercise can probably help, but perhaps it should also be sustainable, and in that capacity there are rapidly diminishing returns to intensity of exercise (and perhaps going hard and then quitting is a risk factor for weight regain).

My speculation is that the lesson is that in general there are diminishing returns from having a caloric deficit, regardless of the means to achieve it. Which fits with the idea that it is easier succeed with small, lasting changes than to create a more significant deficit for a shorter period of time. It would explain the insane failure rate of the weight loss industry, which for obvious reasons needs to show significant short-term results.
Well, then the OP is among one of the very few people that couldn't find a better job for the position.

In my experience I have had 22 jobs in my life, half software, half not - every time I asked for a raise and even got a good one it was never more than 9% in a specific position, in moving positions I have received over 100% multiple times.

There was no such thing as profit sharing, I was seriously underpaid many times. There was 401k matching at best, and anywhere that offered stock basically went bust or used means to ensure they never paid it.

Ultimately I would love to stay somewhere that paid me well and treated me well, but getting both for a steady period is hard!

> The concept of free speech as a value that is good in and of itself is something that barely exists outside of the USA.

That's demonstrably false; rights like free speech are enshrined in societies all over the world. Other countries don't have a First Amendment, but they have free speech, free press, etc.
