This, and there's seems to be a number of people with a misconception that getting medical assistance is either cheating, or you're not trying hard enough.

As someone who is quite strong and fit, but has a family history of obesity, and who has been packing on the kilos into their 40s - I've recently started with ozempic and it's a breakthrough drug. The incessant never ending demand to eat, that voice which never goes away and pervades every part of the day and task, the call which is almost impossible to ignore ore even after months of dieting and managing macros - it got moderated down from a 10/10 volume to about a 2/10 volume. I've started dropping the gut fat, and 6 weeks in my energy is coming back up to levels it was at 10 years ago.

I'm hoping that this isnt a permanent solution, but that it permits me to reset my bodies relationship with food, insulin, fat accumulation and hunger signals in the long term as the signalling cells senesce, the fat is reduced and demands less maintenance, etc.
Why make two sizes and STILL make the smaller phone enormous? Apple is reportedly making the regular iPhone Pro larger as well. Baffling.
And a couple of $5M apiece hypersonics could easily sink a destroyer, even with a conventional payload. Red Sea has shown just how useless warships are nowadays against an adversary with any kind of long range anti ship capability. The entire strike groups had to hightail outta there once the more potent stuff started flying
I just recommend no watch at all. Once I got a cell phone, wrist watches lost all appeal to me other than being a fancy piece of mechanical or digital jewelry and I have never seen the appeal of smart watches, despite working with technology every day. I'm sure they are useful for a subset of people, but this idea that everyone should have a smartwatch boggles my mind.
Do you want this burger, or do you want this baby cow to live?
Two guesses:

- it's just stretched skin

- people get on ozempic but are not eating nutritious diets, so now they are malnourished
But, in practice, how often do we ask a tensor to consume a vector?
I though GERD was not caused by coffee [1]: "Drinking coffee or tea and adding milk or sugar was not associated with reflux symptoms or EE"

AAUP ends two-decade opposition to academic boycotts
"serving impressions to half the country" you're still confused about the meaning of the information. Average people probably see hundreds or thousands of social media posts in a month so if only one of them is from the troll farm, that's essentially none.

You said it's often a troll farm or LLMs controlled by an intelligence agency. I don't see any evidence for that. Unless you take the pedantic meaning of "often" to be "not never but possibly hardly ever".

I'm not denying that it happens, but that it's as significant as you presented it to be.
Short-term fasting induces profound neuronal autophagy
The earth is smoother than a billiard ball when accounting for relative size. Highly likely the earth is actually flatter than your countertop when accounting for size.
As soon as SAR involves a helicopter, I remember hearing you're looking at a hefty bill in many places, even if the SAR teams themselves don't charge anything. (Not sure why/how that is the case – maybe the helicopter is often operated by a for-profit company, essentially taking the SAR crew as passenger?)
There are two key points you might be missing here. One is affordability. Landlords buying up housing to let pushes the prices up for everyone. In the Netherlands this has reached a point where two people living together and both earning the national median wage cannot get a mortgage for an average price home because they don't meet the minimum income requirement. This in turn means they're effectively forced to rent, barring outside intervention such as social housing programs etc, which creates more cash flows to landlords.

The other issue is time. Building new housing takes time and even though new housing enters the market, companies and landlords with large portfolios have ample time to build up capital to buy it. They can afford to bid considerably more than starters who are buying their first home.

To maybe exemplify what I mean, the last time I rented a home in the Netherlands, my landlord was a family estate that owned hundreds of apartments. At Dutch prices this means they can afford to put in a down payment for a mortgage for a number of newly built homes every single month, and they aren't even a big player in the local housing market.
> Earth isn't made of water, it's just a damp rock. Or a bowling ball that you squirted a dozen times with a spray bottle.

Yeah, the image with the oceans being dry is wow-inducing... On further thought, of course it'd be very close a sphere, because gravity forces it to be. A sphere where e.g. a slice of it is water (imagine a clementine with one of its segments being water) would be very wobbly if even possible at all..
And need connect yet neurostimulation for the brain and lost control for your body hah
Lava is not really representative of the Earth as a whole, as it turns out. The mantle (which is the vast majority of Earth's volume) isn't a liquid, it's a squishy deformable solid. Magma that comes from the mantle is only liquid because of the removal of pressure or the addition of water; it wasn't liquid down there. And a lot of lava comes from crustal melting, not mantle material.

Earth as a whole has a density about 5.5x that of water.
What do you want to get out of reading "classics"? I can think of three types of book that are called classic. First, there are things that are simply old. Second are things that made substantial contribution to our intellectual heritage. Third, there are books that are exceptionally enjoyable to read because of the quality of writing. What are you after?

Things that were interesting to me for representing older times -- The Epic of Gilgamesh, The Battle of Maldon. Books that I didn't enjoy but I'm glad to know their contents -- all that old Greek and Latin stuff. Books that I enjoy rereading just for their quality -- things by Tolkien, Eco, Wodehouse, Chandler...
TFA contains mixed messaging. The part you quoted is discussing face skin, then later, also talking about face skin:

> (“We see a similar pattern in other causes of rapid weight loss, including gastric bypass surgery, he says.) In some cases, the loss of subcutaneous fat is significant enough that it impacts a patients’ ability to get injectables ..

So which is it?

My takeaway was that losing weight fast == problematic.

The article dials up the FUD factor to the max, which makes me question the quality of reporting and any intent to accurately inform vs. just get clicks.
At this point, it is just easier to stick a popsocket to the back so I don't feel like I am going to drop the phone.
> Weight loss has very little to do with exercise and mostly to do with how much you eat.

That's not an accurate statement. Over the past year I have averaged 2 hours of aerobics per day (~1500 active CAL). And I've simply buffeted my way eating multiple portions per day and haven't gained any weight.

It have a lot to do with a lot of exercises - it has little to do if you just had little exercise. It's all about the caloric balance, and it takes a lot of exercise to skew that balance while it's a lot easier to eat more.
Trucks do the most damage per mile. But there are about 10 time as many cars on the road per truck. Also cars have gotten WAY heavier recently making road maintenance a nightmare. Also commercial trucks do pay more in taxes than cars.
In 2005, the American Association of University Professors spoke out against this form of protest amid calls for scholars to spurn Israeli institutions. Now, the group says boycotts “can be considered legitimate tactical responses.”
Ah, been waiting for this. Now the discussion is complete. (At least for me.)
If youtube stopped allowing sponsored segments that puts pressure on the market to produce such a thing. Even now creators are trying to come up with alternatives. Nothing has panned out, but something like stopping sponsored segments could very well tip a large number of people who want to get paid to find another way to get paid.
As likely anyone on HN is to hold: I have a bunch of old phones.

How harvest sensors, cams, thingamathings and have a new cadre of people who can build plans to take sensor THING from PHONEA and CAMERA from PHONEB and etc... and build a thing where these already known devices can be harvested and incorporated into projects, products, etc... and not landfil.?
I've got no dog in this fight, but the article explicitly says this is different from the normal effects of rapid weight loss on skin.
> dont really need a screen, its cubersome when you are outside for long periods of time and battery life on Apple phones isn't very good

> Need something, I don't care if its big, that will last for at least a week, can do 3g/4g (5g is too much) SMS globally and calling internationally

That depends on if you feel that you need to keep everything that needs network running in the background all the time. I keep some things running in the background, but not everything. My aging iPhone 8 lasts me a week between charges, and it's got 4 years on its back and still using the original battery, now down to just under 80% maximum capacity. Really, the iPhones' battery life is fine.
>The only way I see to solve that is that all the cars need to communicate and be aware of each other in 3D space, and then be able to predict their upcoming position in the visual/radar field very precisely, so that as soon as it comes into view you need to be able to confidently say that this is indeed another Waymo car and thus inhibit the (now unnecessary) honk reaction.

I honestly can't believe that's not already part of the feature set.

Fasting for just one day, after two years of eating anything at any time, really cleared up my mind. Most religions of the world have some form of semi-regular fasting, probably for good reason.
FWIW, Adapalene (sold OTC as Differin) is a third generation retinoid that is less irritating than the original formulations.
Is there a better man page site to use instead? I abhor reading in the terminal.
> think of these chemicals as eyeglasses for your metabolism

That's a great metaphor, thank you!

I'm fortunate enough to have a pretty non-addictive personality, but I'm fully aware (and have often experienced firsthand) it has approximately nothing to do with willpower.

A lot of people apprently aren't, or even need to believe this story about themselves ("I'm normal-weighted due to my excellent willpower!") to preserve their sense of self-worth, and I think it's gonna take us quite a while to address that objection as a society.
You wrote above that preferring a week-long battery life for a watch over an ability to make calls and install apps is a "weird take". For me it's exactly the opposite, I take the week-long battery any time. So if anything at all is weird here I'd vote for your viewpoint.
Apple Watch used to have Uber app, then it was discontinued and removed for some reason. I suspect it’s probably the same for other watches.
Youtube premium also supports skipping past commonly skipped video timestamps.
Worth keeping in mind that many plastic surgeons are in competition with drugs like Ozempic.
Inverse means opposite, but I'll pretend you answered the question.

So you'd introduce every time, as your (infant|toddler|young child|tween|teenager|adult|senior|elderly) child? Because that seems odd.

Yes, really.
It's interesting speculation. I just can't accept the existence of a spacecraft that can last 100 years without a catastrophic failure, or Ceres being reforged into a factory, or a nation of people who live entirely independent of Earth until I see it.

Sometimes people talk about these things as if they are inevitable, but I would say there's an extremely good chance we go extinct without ever leaving this solar system (Voyager 1 notwithstanding). I think this is a valuable and grounding perspective in planning for the long term future of humanity, because we have to accept that that future takes place here on Earth and largely with the technology we already have. Space colonization is seductive, but like all silver bullets, impossible to operationalize within the constraints imposed on us by our situation.

But it's probably not a useful one when picking SETI targets or generating other research ideas, and that stands on it's own merit.
Don't these plastic surgeons have a conflict of interest if they perform liposuction? Liposuction is probably wildly more profitable than prescribing a GLP-1 inhibitor.

Kinda already on that train with the boat load of sugar to get overweight in the first place.
Personally I view the Pixel experience as "clean", but I've heard it described as "sparse" by Samsung fans.
They certainly improve the situation for shareholders. I am banned from the Google app store for making an app which was labeled with the service it interacted with, which was trademarked. (Example: If you make a Reddit app, Google won't let you put "Reddit" anywhere in the label without Reddit's legal permission, making it impossible for anyone to discover your app through search, which is the way people discover apps)
Yes, they added comment replies functionality a little while ago.
Wouldn’t the most famous drug be: aspirin, heroin, cocaine, paracetamol, or maybe viagra?

I don’t know from your comment what it is, and it was unhelpful. Not really in the HN spirit. For future readers, it seems to be an anti-diabetic drug or artificial hormone originating in the 70s. More educated comments than mine are very welcome.

It’s been 13 years since Valve made a non-pvp, non-vr game. I don’t fault people liking those kinds of games. However I don’t think it’s out of line to hope Valve’s next game could be enjoyed by people without the inclination to play online or needing to own special hardware.
TFA gives the impression that the book version and the wiki version are largely similar.
Show HN: I've open sourced DD Poker
I'm the original author of DD Poker, a Java-based computer game that ran on Mac, Linux and Windows and originally sold in stores in physical boxes.

I shut down the backend servers in 2017 but the game is still functional and people can still play each other online even though the central lobby and find-a-game functionality no longer work.

I've been asked over the years to release the source code, especially during the pandemic, and again this year. I finally got motivated to clean up the code and put it out there.

The code is 20 years old and uses some ancient Spring, log4j, Wicket and other dependencies, but it still works on Java 1.8.
Yeah totally, there would be umpteen different factors that would influence the "age perception" so to say. I also wonder how losing different types of weight(water fast vs longer timeframe fat/muscle loss) could impact this.

It's not clear to me from your example what the relationship is to shareholders.
As I understand, it first extracts text from original video into subtitles, translates them using external LLM, and then converts text to speech. All of this is done using thrid-party solutions, and the project seems to be just a GUI app that allows to integrate them.

You obviously cannot use this to translate songs or movies because this method loses important information like voice, intonation, etc.

So it is still better to use subtitles.
Framework Laptop 13 reviewed, again: Meteor Lake meh, Linux upgrades good
The article explains that this happens also with patients who aren't obese but are using ozempic to lose 20 pounds.

It's an important side effect that ought to be researched.
at this stage, I'd be happy with google assistant "only" understanding what I'd like to play on youtube (+music) while driving. Far-fetched dream would be to understand streets I'd like to navigate to via google maps (not US, not english). Barrier is so low compared to rest.
How useful is it really? It s a novelty, and as language are going to get truly useful and reasonable, the small llms will be nothing but a novelty item that drains the battery.
Although as any fule kno, that’s true only of the college, and not the street in the centre of town; this is how town detects gown.
> Marketing for phones is probably more diverse and carefully balanced than for any other product category.

Marketing for phones is forcibly (over) diverse and carefully not balanced but constructed than for any other product category.

They do not market objectively to the customers. They market by emotion and political correctness.

The Great Lakes span across hundreds of miles, but the deepest point is less than a quarter mile, and most of it is much shallower than that. I.e., it's a super thin film over that big surface area.
There’s nothing wrong with their representation. You’re describing a different comparison.
Exactly that. But surprisingly, although I'd consider it as a trivial insight, we're living in a world that just doesn't want to understand that.

And while YT is a lot about casual nonsense, there are other big tech walled gardens, where content fights against some corporate-controlled algorithms, but the content is our entire public discourse nowadays. :( And people still do not want to understand what a terribly bad idea that is...
Many often cite the wireless charging argument, but often forget that there are many people who don't care about wireless charging and would prefer a durable phone.
Rust's Mutex, Atomics and UnsafeCell – Spooky Action at a Distance?
Yeah, I'd imagine the helicopter is where the big expense lies and those are mostly private hires. The SAR teams around me are first responders already on duty or volunteers. They still have expenses when launching a mission but driving a dozen people to a trailhead is cheaper than a chopper.
it's possible the necessary inventions would have happened earlier without the patent problem, but the minimug era of reprap was not simply reproducing existing fdm machines; they were having to figure out a lot of things nobody had figured out before, like parts cooling fans, pla to use lower temperatures and avoid the need for a heated build chamber, threaded rod truss gantries, avr g-code interpreters, and eventually auto bed leveling, pla pinch extrusion, etc. there are things people could have told them, but if they'd done everything in the safe conventional way they would have ended up with a two thousand dollar machine
No, it’s completely inaccessible. Unless you are just playing word games, then sure.
coffee definitely ruins my sleep no matter what time I drink it, so there's that.

My father also had headache his whole working life on Sundays, not realizing that drinking coffee all week days but not on the weekend, that was probably coffee withdrawal that was giving him a headache by day 2.

Yeah, the main dealbreakers at this point seem to be (1) price, (2) battery life, since it's literally a smaller battery, and (3) vulnerability to debris. I've heard people say that you shouldn't take a folding phone to the beach because the sand can wreck those flex screens.
The Nest cameras are infuriating. I’ll get an alert, only to tap it and get “This video isn’t available yet. Check back later.”

After all these years, my devices still are split across the Nest and Home apps, and the Home app is still missing features Nest had from day one. Oh yeah and presence sensing doesn’t work since switching to the Google app [0].

I bought an iPhone last year and have been de-Googling since.

IMO GLP-1 agonists are obviously not free, from first principles. They might be for diabetics who carefully manage their diet, but many (most?) people using them for weight loss usually already have shitty diets with poor macronutrient balance and micronutrient deficiencies. Eating less of the crappy food they were eating before just makes the true situation worse.

This is just the latest [1][2] evidence for the obvious muscle wasting that will happen to a human body that is starved of protein and micronutrients. The muscles under the skin are being cannibalized for protein that’s missing in the diet and other biochemical processes that restore them are starved of the nutrients they need to function.

Good ol' pissing on the side of the tree. Lasts longer than any battery and also wards potential predators off. Dog approves. Spice up that smell with a caramel macchiato add-on if you're into startups.
Mass is the defining characteristic of a quantity of matter. Given that much of the iron is under far higher compression than the outer layers of silicate rock, this also advantages iron.

By mass, iron (32.1%) is still a minority constituent of the Earth.
