> 1. If you tell the average person to follow an omnivorous diet vs. telling them to eat a vegan one, even if you give them some basic guidance on how to eat healthy (try to stick to minimally processed foods, etc.), doing the latter does tend to improve various biomarkers associated with longevity.

I'm interested in this study, if you could link it. Most comparisons I read are observational studies, not experimental.
Does it work for Americans aboard that take Foreign Earned Income Exclusion?

Unfortunately it has no support for AMT on Form 1116 (Foreign Tax Credit).

I believe taking any FTC requires doing a full AMT calculation (instructions for schedule 2 line 1) which includes a separate AMT version of 1116, so as far as I know FFF is useless for anyone that takes FTC.

Almost all big tech companies have offices in many parts of the world so they would all count as "non US citizens employed by US companies". Many smaller companies also do that because they cannot always afford to pay US equivalent salaries but can find talent in other parts of the world at a much cheaper rate (and No, cheaper is not always worse. Sometimes it is just about cost of living and other benefits that people are looking for ).
Again with the word salad.

It is very simple. If you move your data off cloud provider X, cloud provider X is losing revenue because you are doing things with your data off their platform.

They therefore charge high fees to move your data off the platform to discourage this behavior. Meaning you now need to use cloud provider X’s services to do anything with the data.

Attempts at vendor lock-in have been core to software service companies since they were born.
>>I don't know much about SQL Server and MySQL but I wouldn't favor a lockin closed source software or anything remotely connected to Oracle.

If that's a concern, then MariaDB is another alternative. Postgres isn't the only option in town.

EDIT: I'm correcting myself here because as far as I can tell, LISTEN NOTIFY equivalent capabilities are only available in MariaDB's SkyQL fully managed services offering, and not in the base MariaDB Community Server.

I was referring to the benefits using a well established framework/platform gives you as opposed to implementing new features. The boring parts of web are long solved in boring frameworks, but not new ones, where you mess around trying to come up with a good project structure, form handling, auth, background workers and all that. Performance critical paths can be written in performant languages, no need to do the CRUD part with fancy tech imho.
It's neat that it focuses on visible-light observations through a telescope, but I wonder what else is visible at long distances. Would spectroscopy reveal other evidence of our existence? Besides the change in atmospheric co2 levels (which could be explained by natural ebbs and flows caused by, I don't know, volcanoes?), would they see an increase in our use of refrigerants in the late 1900s? Would the effects of nuclear detonations be detectable at all, even in principle? What about things like the use of sodium lamps, and then the switch to more LED lighting?
Ask HN: JavaScript and/or front end developers, why are you switching to rust?
I've met and read articles by a lot of JS devs who are enamored with Rust. I love Rust and c and c++ because I work at systems level and sometimes in backend for robotic systems. Even in these domains, uptake of rust is mostly experimental.

But I'm ignorant about the uses of Rust in frontend, or as a replacement for javascript in other areas.

Am I misreading the situation or are JS devs really wanting Rust, and why and for what types of projects?
Hi everyone, there are no easy tools for synthetic data generation or training and aligning LLMs simply in Python. Most of the stuff out there are messy adhoc scripts.

DataDreamer is an open source Python package with a nice API from the University of Pennsylvania that does all this that we’re actively developing. Will be here to answer questions.

Regardless of whether he's right or wrong (in fact, the actual quote and assessment he gives is right, this headline is clickbait)

Friend in college died of some super fast cancer at 21. Navy cadet, high speed, PT superstar. We don't like to think of it that way but it's often just a roll of the dice. Some cosmic ray flips a bit and the immune system was taking a nap that day or something.

Mail (physical means of communicating in writing and print) and email (connecting two people with digital signal) are similar but not a great comparison when comparing consumption of natural gas. Technology literally created additional markets for the same material, by modifying it so it could be transported more efficiently over long distances. I think you could say the new methods of natural gas production and storage are more efficient just as easily as saying the old methods were simply inefficient (it would have been possible to pipeline gas from AU to markets across the ocean, but it didn’t make economic sense because it would have been terribly costly and thus an inefficient use of resources)

It’s not necessarily management.

Though it’s absurd to force people to have a password between 6 and 8 chars for example, because it limits the amount of possibilities.

Usage based pricing or subscriptions? What's better?
I'm building cocomail.io

cocomail is an email automation platform for SaaS

Let’s you send transactional + marketing emails with an easy & simple api integration.

Unlike a lot of companies we don't plan on charging based on number of contacts but based on number of email you send per month.

But i'm also debating with my founder whether we should do subscriptions or usage based pricing?

One will only pay if they send emails or no charge..

what are pro's and cons of usage based pricing model?
It's fairly universal that politicians are underpaid relative to the level of responsibility they hold.

I'd quite like my country (UK) to be run by folk who are competent, rather than by only those who can afford to run for office without being paid for it. Yes, MPs get a lot more than the median income. But many people who are well-qualified to be MPs are also well-qualified to hold roles that pay at least as well if not more, and without needing to run for election to get the job.
I’ve never seen trauma mean ‘I stubbed my toe yesterday’, and I suspect that is the core part of the issue here if you think people are saying it is.

It might help to think of a trauma reaction more similarly to an allergic reaction.

Anaphylaxis is a real issue, and a real problem. Some people will get it from a single bee sting, or a peanut.

Other people can get stung hundreds of times or work in a peanut factory, and have no issues.

Until they do.

We don’t know why this is the case, but pretending it isn’t happening, or denying anyone an epi pen doesn’t help either - near as we can tell.

The difference is, it’s psychological not physical, so unlike anaphylaxis we can’t see it happening clearly and there isn’t a clear type of medicine we can give someone.

It’s common if someone has had bad issues, but has been told to ‘suck it up, it’s not happening’ to get resentful if someone else’s issues start actually being taken seriously.

For instance, if someone was neglected as a child, and then someone else starts pointing out that they want attention - ‘shut up and sit down’.

The issue here is that some of these reactions are adaptive, some are maladaptive, some can be addressed, and some can’t - and we frankly can’t seem to agree on which ones are which.

Which has probably always been the case. But now we get to navel gaze about it all in public. Yay.

I'm a fullstack javascript developer I'm not switching to Rust but I like the whole concept of Rust and I wish it to thrive.
It feels C++ never developed a ton of Developer Experience and Rust is finally a C++ with a better DX.
For me one of the things about Rust is being a low level language with a decent package system. Also Rust tutorials they tend to be written in a modern actionable style like for JS/Python/Ruby. C++ has years and years of guides on the style "You wanna learn, sure, prepare yourself to bleed, a lot, it will be worth it though".
To some degree I do believe people can spot health problems in other people.
After all we do chose mates and assess their overall health based on looks.

In terms of longevity, I feel there's probably some minimum amount of exercise you need to do, after you might be better off at addressing other things if you have other deficiencies. (dental health, snoring, etc)

Thinking in terms of a sports car. You can do all kinds of things to maintain and improve the engine. But if you want long term success, don't forget about the breaks or other systems that might need take you out a lot earlier.
Well it‘s not automatic. You need workers/employees to care and take action for this to be something about which I can then say “this would never fly where I work”. And you need the legal framework and cultural norms that support something like that. So not to say it‘s easy.

My point here is that sometimes in theses discussions there seems to be a sort of first principles view of the employee-employer relationship where it is taken as axiomatic that anything you do as an employee (and sometimes even beyond) is for the employer to take and do with whatever they want unconditionally.

My point is that that doesn’t need to be the obviously true axiom it sometimes seems to be.

Bars and churches have different purposes and people's behaviour in each of them should change because of that. The person acting the same and doing the same things in both would be considered to be behaving very strangely otherwise.

Appreciate the feedback on the title, this is developed for ML researchers, so I assure there is a lot it’s doing under the hood to make this process easier (for example introducing automatic caching and resumability).

This can go back to your old buddy NTP, specifically DHCP assigning this on untrusted networks. If you control the network (time?) and you manage to get the full expired certificate you may be able to MITM the victim successfully. If you force the CRL check first then things won't match up. I have no ideas on the feasibility of faking the CRL though, so it might be a wash.

Depends a bit on the branch/focus of economics you're looking at, and which nation/region you want to read about, but a broadly uncontroversial list would be:

The Quarterly Journal of Economics, Oxford University Press (colloquial known as "the QUGE")

Econometrica, Econometric Society

Journal of Economic Literature, American Economic Association

Journal of Economic Growth, Springer

Journal of Financial Economics, Elsevier

Maybe swap in the Journal of Political Economy if you're looking for more political leaning research. Swap in the American Economic Review if you're interested in more American-centric research.
I think it's because "getting over" is a really long process for someone with severe trauma. And it's often better to inform people around you about the problems you are having and the source of them. Like I have problems with particular task not because I do not respect you or I don't care about it but I am still fighting with me demons. Sure you can not care about that but it's still better that you know about it.
When I was younger I heavily abused caffeine and would spend many long nights programming while deferring sleep as long as possible.

Now that I’m older, I’ve noticed that I just can’t do it. If I don’t sleep 7+ hours a night I feel TERRIBLE: my mood is worse, my focus is worse, and my overall productivity drops off a cliff.

Last year I was put on a medication with the unfortunate side effect of causing insomnia which made sleeping a full night extremely difficult and it was a struggle. Thankfully, after changing medications a few months ago to an alternative I’m sleeping great and no longer struggling.

My advice is to look into sleep hygiene and follow all recommendations. If you’re still not sleeping well look into medications and do whatever you can to treat your body right — it’s worth it.

Pizza Calc: How many and what type of pizza to order for a party
Yesterday, I made this site to help people decide how many and what type of pizzas to get for parties. I love making small silly things and I've been talking about making this site for years.

About 10 years ago my friend had a party and an hour in Domino's shows up and we start eating, then 5 minutes later Papa John's shows up. Him and his wife each ordered the pizza without telling each other.

Later in the night, the host was laughing and explaining to me that after ordering all that pizza, the only pizzas that were finished were pepperoni. At our office parties, they would order BBQ, alfredo, hawaiin pizzas, and the same thing would happen, people would be searching for pepperoni or cheese. I came up with a theory that most people just want pepperoni or cheese pizza.

So I've been saying for years I was going to make a little site that tells people how many pizzas and what type to buy. If you're buying pizza today for the Super Bowl or for another party in the future, check it out.

Also, let me know what you think about the "fulfillment algorithm".
A Dyson's sphere is a device to convert high frequency photons (visible light and uv) to low frequency photons (radiated “heat”). A sufficiently deep stack of shells can bring the temperature of the radiated light closer to the temperature of the cosmic background radiation, but it absolutely will radiate.

There is a sort of consensus that there is an inherent good to talking about, actively processing, analyzing trauma.

The feeling is there must be truth there - something to learn, and explanations for personal tendencies based on it.

For some people who have been able to work through their own trauma, the processing may have been wordless, barely conceptual, not at all based in logical processing or traditional talk therapy.

Maybe language-izing all that shit just brings the memories up for these people. For them the healing is not about learning or understanding. So so so much pain just can’t be understood. It’s not meant to be. We want to control it by knowing it, but that’s often not how it works. Maybe there is some hubris and cultishness in thinking it can or must be.

Some concepts that you'll need to get familiar with:

Real time operating systems. Less fancy than they sound but the devil is in the details. Robots need things to happen at a certain speed and at the right time so we have a type of scheduler (that can be patched into the linux kernel) that sacrifices absolute throughput to try and guarantee tasks start inside a particular window. Funny enough, if you've done game development and recognize that everything needs to happen inside 1/60th of a second or better, you know some of the hard parts here.

Memory mapped addresses. C is scary but ultimately fairly simple. Once you get the hang of doing silly things with pointers and arrays, the next step is dealing with microcontrollers. You probably wonder how they do anything without an operating system though, and the answer is memory mapped IO. They have a fully flat memory space, starting with 0x0 and going up from there. That space usually contains basically everything from your stack, heap, flash storage, and all the peripherals like GPIO, I2C, SPI, serial, and so on. You can literally do things like int* x = 0x12345678; *x = 0x1; to turn on an LED because the device is listening for changes to that address to set the output state.

There's a ton of other stuff, but these are the gateways to understanding the space you're dealing with at a basic level.
> are you going to surveil and psychologically analyze everyone in the world in order to detect and pre-crime imprison everyone

No one suggested this; strawman.

There are a whole lot of ways to harass someone using proxies beyond swatting and the traditional ordering of 40 pizzas to their house. Even if any given proxy only falls for it once it can be really bad.

Coming up with ways to counter these kinds of harassment campaigns is important, but it probably doesn't involve "pre-crime imprison[ment]".

> That isn't how business works. Companies maximize their profits and "balance" isn't a profit center. If it didn't benefit them in some customer leveraging way, they would charge for ingress.

What I'm referring to is the practice of balancing peering ratios. That is, when you make transit/peering arrangements with other ISPs, some ISPs will charge more if the amount of data you're sending to them vs the amount of data you're receiving from them is not balanced. It is in Google's best financial interest to at least try to balance their pipes in this way.
