Enough protein intake is a necessary but not sufficient condition. Your body is constantly breaking down and rebuilding muscle tissue (and all other tissue). The amount that it rebuilds is effected by many things like protein availability, and (basically) how much you have been using the muscle. This is why staying active is important.

In addition, since your body has a limit of how quickly it can metabolize fat, even if you had sufficient protein intake and sufficient activity to signal to your body to retain muscle mass, if your caloric deficit is large enough, your body may still be forced to burn protein (ie directly or indirectly reduce muscle mass) to stay alive.

These are factors that you can usually manage around with some careful, but relatively straight forward planning.

EDIT: Note that the 'careful but straight forward planning' is basically exactly the same planning for "a diet". Traditionally, you'd see diets aim for no more than a 300-500kcal deficit for this exact reason. It's not just a question of keeping the food reduction minimal to help your brain stick to the plan, but also as your calorie deficit becomes larger, it becomes much more difficult to fit in all of your proteins (amongst other things).
Nah, unionize and report to regulators as much as possible. Can't succeed in the worker version of the Kobayashi Maru by "starting your own Amazon." Seek leverage and engage it to maximum force.

Based on our current understanding its the same as normal weight loss. So imagine all these people basically just eating less of the terrible diet they likely were originally eating. Forget muscle loss, we are gonna get ozempic malnutrition, wont be surprised when we see people with scurvy
Self-hosting has its challenges, but I think the preference for open-source software alternatives is because as a dev I can always check out the code, even if I don't host it on my own. For me it allows for much greater trust over closed source.

The UK has completely abolished fees (I think) for tenants - I am a reluctant landlord - and I completely agree with that, the power asymmetry in finding housing is already bad enough without allowing blank-cheque negotiations.

In my section of Germany, housing is even worse with rent caps and tenant rights, plus a lack of housing. Tenants are hard to move on, so landlords are painfully cautious about getting the right tenants - and there isn't a lot of money to maintain properties either, it seems. Our place has the worst decor and electrics, terrible ventilation and mould. And I think we're at the high end.

Systems geared up for incumbents, like "council houses for life" in London, ought to be sunset, just to get housing moving again. I don't think rent control works well, but I don't think open market rent works either. Anything critical with a limited supply needs to be externally regulated in ways that keep the wheels moving.
Lift weights and eat a minimum of 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. Also they limit their weight loss to 1% of bodyweight a week.
Apparently some German in there too.

Etymology
From Old French lesser, lessier, laissier (“to let, let go, leave”), from Latin laxō, laxāre (“to relax, loosen”); partly from or influenced by Old High German lāzan (“to let, let go, leave”) (German lassen), from Proto-West Germanic *lātan (“to let, leave, leave alone”).

I can't find anything about it and I've been poking around for the better part of 20 minutes, but my presumption would be this comes from Royal Court, to take leave of the court or the presence of the Royal estate? I'm guessing you would be granted permission to take your leave > take leave > permission. Total guess, however. Who knew leave could be so fun. ;)

There's also the classic, "Nobody knows how to make a pencil."

That kind of "nobody knows" is about the complexity of many large interconnected systems, and the deep wells of knowledge, theory, and history in each of the various domains.

I argue it's different from your washing machine type because the domains of computing are vast. Sure, you can dive in and figure some things out when necessary, but you can do that with pencil production too.

No, that’s not what I’m talking about. That’s presenting context in the same episodic format as news articles, and it only works to explain the thing that was published on that day, up to that point.
Supply and demand determines rent; if you have enough supply and also rent control, then you'll have have rent control that magically "works".

But it's always supply and demand that gets the upper hand in the end. If there's a shortage of supply, and you put in more market rules & regulations, costs will shift elsewhere (like the broker in the article) or the black market will simply grow to clear the market.

Core count shouldn't matter given the benchmark is single threaded (mentioned in the article). My guess is that CPU frequency plays a huge role in the throughput. Here's the same benchmark on a baremetal Xeon w9-3495X (Sapphire Rapids Workstation). As seen in the log (best_frequency) this is running at ~4.4 GHz during the benchmark:

partial_tweets<simdjson_ondemand>/manual_time 107280 ns 132468 ns 6469 best_branch_miss=376 best_bytes_per_sec=8.10705G best_cache_miss=1 best_cache_ref=553 best_cycles=342.737k best_cycles_per_byte=0.542722 best_docs_per_sec=12.8375k best_frequency=4.39987G best_instructions=1.42334M best_instructions_per_byte=2.25385 best_instructions_per_cycle=4.15285 best_items_per_sec=1.28375M branch_miss=378.313 bytes=631.515k bytes_per_second=5.48235G/s cache_miss=0.655434 cache_ref=609.834 cycles=352.768k cycles_per_byte=0.558605 docs_per_sec=9.32143k/s frequency=3.2883G/s instructions=1.42334M instructions_per_byte=2.25385 instructions_per_cycle=4.03477 items=100 items_per_second=932.143k/s [BEST: throughput= 8.11 GB/s doc_throughput= 12837 docs/s instructions= 1423337 cycles= 342737 branch_miss= 376 cache_miss= 1 cache_ref= 553 items= 100 avg_time= 107279 ns]

Given in the article Xeon 8488C at 3.4GHz got 6.83 GB/s, and my 3495X at 4.4 GHz got 8.11 GB/s (1.29 times CPU freq, 1.18 times throughput), it does look like the throughput scales to the CPU frequency (although not entirely linear)

The website also adds that front loading clothes have less water in them at the end of the cycle. So the dryer takes up less energy too.

I'm not sure how much an impact that actually has these days.
The reason I live in a large managed building in NYC is that while such corporate housing may be bad, the broker cartel is infinitely worse. Every independent unit wanted at minimum $7-10K in broker fees, despite the fact that in most cases I didn’t even interact with the broker in any way. So what value are they adding to the system exactly?
It helps you eat at a caloric deficit. I wouldn't say that is starving yourself. It is basically the same mechanism for how any weight loss would work. Less calories consumed versus burned on a daily basis.

There are additional mechanisms that are still being studied, but at minimum it is helping people to eat at a level that supports weight loss.
To clarify, you're asking why people don't buy apartment buildings in Manhattan?
> If you're using a K8S cluster just to deploy a few web apps (...)

It's really not about what I do and do not do with Kubernetes. It's on you to justify your "millions upon millions lines of code" claim because it is so outlandish and detached from reality that it says more about your work than about Kubernetes.

I repeat: I only need a few dozen lines of kustomize scripts to release whole web apps. Simple code. Easy peasy. What mess are you doing to require "millions upon millions" lines of code?
> I know electricity production is not renewable everywhere in the world yet, but at least it’s on a path and possible

And somewhat counter-intuitively, even if you are going to consume that natural gas, it still works out better for the power plant to use it to generate electricity that's used to run a heat pump than to burn it directly for heat.
I think it is a great idea if scaling is not an issue. I have been using Postgres backend on my side projects with celery and it works really well. Really handy if you wish to start off quick and on scale all you need to do is replace the backend/broker.
That is ironic, given the topic.

Marker for the collapse of key Atlantic current discovered
1) buying to let is even crazier, and requires major capital - cost to purchase is nowhere near actual current cashflow. Even in the Bay Area, when it was running up it was 3-5x rental cashflow to buy. In places like manhattan or the Bay Area, landlords are often only able to justify buying in based on speculative future property values (aka market only ever goes up, and in 20 years this will be all fine).

As to if they can actually ever make money on this? Good question. If it was clearly penciling out in a spreadsheet though, competition would ensure it wouldn’t for long in the most in demand markets.

Other markets are saner because there is less competition, usually. This started changing nationwide about 10 years ago, as competition nationwide got out of hand due to easy money.

2) renters do all sorts of crazy bullshit sometimes, and unless you’re really good at managing it as a landlord you’re screwed. Sometimes even then you’re still screwed. Markets like Manhattan especially so.

Landlords which know how to manage these kinds of tenants often turn these kinds of tricks against all tenants to increase returns, and the courts adapt to be even more tenant friendly in many areas or political pressure makes things like rent control inevitable. Which amps up the game.

Eventually market conditions shift (either due to changes in money supply, or because the well is ‘poisoned’ on the landlord or tenant side), and we see things like 70’s era NYC or SF which nukes most of the property values for so long, the speculative players are forced to give up - either because they are broke, or because they have ‘greener pastures’ they are pursing. In RE, usually the former due to market liquidity issues.
The most disturbing part of all this is that people were suspicious of him and he was called into question and investigated numerous times at the hospital. He killed hundreds of people who were given the wrong cause of death. The hospital was enabling this guy by prioritizing their own reputation.
Sweden is often used as a case study in how rent controls lead to housing shortages.

Rent control tries to make housing more affordable by reducing the cost, which immediately reduces the supply. At that point, rent control ends up increasing housing costs.

Theory and real-world case studies mean that this is so obvious, that I just assume anyone that's passed economics 101 and is advocating for rent control is either grossly incompetent, currently very drunk, or is disingenuous and actually wants to use the power of the government to make sure other people cannot obtain secure and stable housing.
> That's because these things are not defined for us and are open to interpretation.

This is actually a deep philosophical and practical issue called the frame problem. It is not tractable to define all the axioms and presuppositions for any given set of rules. That's why the American system has a legislature and separate interpretive body in the judiciary.

I feel I'm missing something here, but it feels like the intro is not only suggesting there was a performance impact, but very explicitly stating there was:

> profile of a sample word count program I was writing, which showed the program was spending way too much time in the syscall module. That in this context can only mean one thing: way too many read syscalls were getting called.

I find it hard to believe that the profile would look any different with 1 vs 2 syscalls per 2GB chunk. The syscall overhead is going to be insignificant compared to actually copying the data. The program is going to be spending a lot of time doing syscalls no matter how many there are, because the individual syscalls will just start to take more time as you increase the size of the buffer.

Edit:

Compare:

strace -e read -T perl -MFcntl -e 'sysopen FD, "foo", Fcntl::O_RDONLY; while (sysread FD, $buf, 1*1024*1024*1024) {} '

read(3, ..., 1073741824) = 1073741824 <0.455901>
read(3, ..., 1073741824) = 1073741824 <0.219711>
read(3, ..., 1073741824) = 1073741824 <0.213923>
read(3, ..., 1073741824) = 1073741824 <0.211783>

Vs.

You are missing the point. I recommend you look into Platform Engineering and what it involves.
What I’m objecting to is the binary goalpost of ‘unanimous’. We don’t need unanimous in order to statistically improve the level of agreement. I disagree that covering edge cases makes the hole bigger. The number of edge cases, and the level of agreement are two different things, and it’s possible to improve agreement even if the number of edge cases goes up.

> The author could’ve used any number of rules and laws and still came up with edge cases

And yet, the author could have stipulated motor vehicles and a 400 ft FAA air ceiling boundary to the park, and most of the trick questions in that survey that generated disagreement would suddenly flip to everyone answering them correctly.

I don’t understand what your suggested alternative is. We already continuously refine our laws to cover edge cases. That is the takeaway for the contrived ‘no vehicles’ survey. Are you saying we shouldn’t be improving laws because it’s impossible, or what?

A quite common approach, yes.

As a moderator you often know know that somebody should be removed, but for the sake of PR it's often unwise to just have an internal talk, reach an agreement that "yup, this person is an ass", and then ban them seemingly out of the blue, even if there's a bunch of excellent reasons. It's easy for drama to erupt, especially when that person has been around for a long time and is a regular.

An easy solution is to watch out like a hawk for the right incident and do it then, and sometimes to even try to intentionally push things along so that it's especially obvious to all bystanders.

And leaving some evidence to show everyone why you did it also helps.
It seems logical that this would be paired with doctor supervision to do the "teaching" as it's a prescription.
Enough of this theory. I live in Boston area. I have rented an EV and a gas vehicle and covered the same distance. The EV cos more to cover the same distance. Like 2x more.

I'm saying:

- main constructor is easily available from the main type's docs,

- option type is easily available from the main constructor's docs,

- all option funcs are easily available from the option type's docs (because in fact these option funcs are constructors for the option type).

Excerpt from grpc godoc index:

func ConnectionTimeout(d time.Duration) ServerOption
func Creds(c credentials.TransportCredentials) ServerOption

One more hop compared to a flat argument list, that's true. But if you only commonly use maybe 0-5 arguments out of 30-50 available, it does not look like a bad deal.

DRY vs premature optimisation is the landscape most long term devs find themselves in. You can say that FP, OO and a bunch of other paradigms affect this, but eventually you need to repeat yourself.

Just as a thought exercise, if XML had been the de facto interchange format, how much would that have added to the historical bandwidth transfer of the Internet? Even 1 KB added to every AJAX call would add up pretty significantly pretty fast, I'd imagine...

Obviously JSON isn't well optimized either but I wonder how much, if any, progress might have been slowed by XML syntax clogging the pipes even more.
