I am in my mid 30's, moved to US from India a few years back, after lot of suffering, visit to Urgent care, Colonoscopy and lot trial and error I found out it was the milk which was causing the issue, currently I consume low fat lactose free milk and non fat greek yogurt from Costco.

one question I keep wondering about is, do I have lactose intolerance or issue with digesting milk fat from cow milk. I am able to consume all products with any amount of fat content made from Buffalo milk inlcuding lactose (Buffalo milk is predominantly used in India)

The reason Republicans and Democrats win all the time is partly because the US generally doesn't have ranked choice voting when it comes to something like presidential elections [0]. People are afraid of voting for a third party because it is unlikely they would win, so they vote as if betting or hedging, choosing the least bad and yet still likely to win against the worse option. With ranked choice voting, voters could choose their preferred candidate first, and their backup second, and this would introduce some dynamism into the political system.

Why would they pay the bottom of the barrel consulting firm? This must be a joke, or maybe ACN got them a _good_ deal (ie, cheap labor).

Last time I worked with ACN engineers, it was usually people fresh out of college and off shore. The solution to “delays” in time tables was to throw more people at the problem.

Also, y’all remember the Hertz and ACN failure?

"A service that lets you bet on what weather is your city currently having."

> WeatherBet is a unique service that allows users to place bets on the current weather conditions in their city. Users can predict whether it will rain, shine, or snow, adding an engaging layer to weather forecasting.

> What problem does it solve?
This service addresses the lack of engagement and excitement in weather prediction, turning everyday weather updates into a competitive and interactive experience. This problem affects enthusiasts and casual weather followers alike as they often find traditional forecasts boring.

> Who is target audience?
WeatherBet targets young adults aged 18-35 who are interested in both gaming and technology. This audience enjoys interactive experiences and is likely to use apps for social engagement, making them prime candidates for betting on daily weather.

> What makes this solution unique?
Unlike existing weather apps that merely provide forecasts, WeatherBet incorporates a gamified element, allowing users to bet on real-time weather. This unique approach can boost user engagement, create social interactions, and offer potential rewards, setting it apart from traditional weather services.
> They are supposed to represent a pathology, essentially

The diagnosis in the DCM are built very strangely. They are basically cluster of symptoms which are statistically seen to occur together in reports (which are necessarily self report the field being psychology).

It does for a somewhat arbitrary definition of what is a pathology. The DSM has a disproportionate impact on what is and isn’t covered by insurance in the US but isn’t overall a very good tool to decide what treatment is the best and I don’t think doctors base their recommendation on what people check or don’t check in the DSM.

I agree, for those that prefer biking and camping vs Disney world and hotels, then Mister Money Mustache’s advice rings true and seems logical. For those that have other ideas of what consists of a ‘good time’, then there is a limit to the ‘cost cutting’ that can be achieved.

My main point is really this - be real with yourself on how frugal you can reasonably get sustainably. If you try to be as frugal as Mr Mustache and that is beyond your level of comfort, you are going to fail and/or be miserable and wonder why you are not enjoying your retirement because it is based on false figures.

Why do you insist on trying to reduce my opinion, which you do not understand, into metaphors which have no relevance?

> "Person 1 shortened the length of the string."

This statement implies a direct influence, ie Person 1 cut or broke the string, therefore directly shortened it.

> "Person 1 contributed to shortening the length of the string."

This statement is much more vague. What part did person 1 contribute? Did they make the scissors which cut the string? Did they mine the metal for thoise scissors? Did they hypnotise or manipulate the will of the person who did actually cut the string?

There is nuance here, and you dont seem to be understanding it at all.

Sure, but we are talking about a physical theory here not a mathematical one. There are always alternative physical theories, infinitely many. They may not be good theories, but they clearly exist. This has nothing to do with cosmology but more is a fundamental principle of logic.

> Rust has huge advantages over Go in this area.

Could you name some advantages? I would agree Rust has huge advantages compared to C/C++, and Rust also has a much bigger presence in the "security space". But I would say that's more because of Rust's lack of GC, smaller footprint which works in embedded systems etc.

I guess you could say that Rust's type system being more expressive might eliminate certain classes of bugs, which have security implications. But "huge advantages"?

Tell HN: Server error (5xx) in Google Search Console may not be 5xx at all
I run https://next-episode.net and recently (a few months ago) - I noticed it started getting pages not indexed because of “Server error (5xx)” in Google Search Console (GSC):

https://next-episode.net/img/upload/5xx.png

On the website everything looked good and all reported links worked fine.

I tried validating these errors at GSC as fixed, but it would always report back that the issue is still present and new links would keep popping up to have 5xx errors (as seen on the screenshot).

This was worrisome because it indicated there was some kind of an issue I wasn’t aware of that may be affecting not only Google’s crawlers, but my users as well.

I did what everyone would do - checked my server, Cloudflare and analytics logs for anything suspicious and placed some additional logging to try and catch what was happening.

This turned out nothing - as far as I could tell - no requests returned any 5xx errors, so I decided it’s just a weird Google quirk and ignored it for a while.

With time though, Google kept reporting these problems and the count of 5xx URLs only grew larger so once again (about 2 weeks ago) I started investigating what was happening.

This time around, I tried to match the URLs reported by GSC with the analytics provided by Cloudflare and bingo - I found that all these requests had the Edge Status Code (and Origin Status Code) of “429 Too Many Requests”.

Now that was progress.

There is only one thing on my service that would return this status code and is my custom rate limiting which would be triggered if you do more than 30 requests in less than 10 seconds.

What changed so that Google suddenly decided to crawl so aggressively and hit that limit (something that never happened before, and Next Episode is online for more than 19 years now!) and why it’s reporting them 5xx in GSC when my server clearly returns 429 - I don’t know.

What I do know for sure is that Google is misreporting 429 server status as 5xx.

To fix this (at least as a quick fix for now) - I whitelisted in my rate limiter all Google Crawlers’ IPs (which I found through here: https://www.infidigit.com/blog/google-update-googlebots-ip-a... ) - listed in this JSON provided by Google: https://developers.google.com/search/apis/ipranges/googlebot...

For just in case, I also passed on the ASN in the request header (through a Cloudflare transform rule) and whitelisted the whole Google ASN (15169) as well.

After - I monitored for new 5xx errors popping up in GSC and new 429 statuses logged in Cloudflare from Google’s ASN and so far (for more than 2 weeks) - so good.

> Let’s not share this absolute misinterpretation of what happened.

Let's not spin what happened, which has concrete and irrefutable evidence. Here's all the court docs [1]. Apple got caught, most definitely did degrade performance without warning and on purpose, and certainly people at Apple knew some of those device owners would upgrade. That they spun it as a feature once caught is classic spin. Apple is no idiot at marketing - if they thought people would see this as positive PR, they would have announced it and touted it. They did not. The 7 million+ pages of Apple discovery made all this clear. This is why Apple settled for a half billion - they were certainly going to get hammered in court.

Read the court docs, not Apple PR.

I'm not trying to argue against the fact it would die or not. I'm mainly trying to understand why people think Google would abandon it. Abandoning Google Reader and abandoning Flutter or GoLang are _not_ the same in my eyes, and I can't think of any cases where Google has abandoned a technology rather than a consumer facing product in this fashion.

The studies are pretty clear: aerobic exercise leads to some tepid reduction in body fat in exchange for massive effort, and resistance training increases fat-free mass but doesn't reduce fat.

> [aligned] with literature from the previous decade and recent systematic reviews concluding that participation in an exercise training program does favor weight loss, although of only modest magnitude. [1]

> Resistance training was the only exercise modality that failed to significantly decrease visceral adipose tissue. [1]

You suggest that "you'd much rather someone be a muscular, overweight person than skinny-fat person" -- but that's not really the case. Sheer fat mass, especially visceral adipose tissue, is what is associated with negative health consequences.

[edit] Even the article you linked to via the Times says the following.

> However, the amount of weight loss from exercise training is often disappointingly less than expected. [2]

Which aligns with their own findings that after 12 weeks of 3000kcal/week energy deficit they only lost about 5 pounds, see Table 2. So to lose 50 pounds you'd have to spend 2 years with a 3000kcal/week deficit, and keep adjusting periodically. The chances of compliance here are literally zero, and compliance is a major issue. In some senses, it's the major issue.

Also this study committed a major sin: they didn't follow up. Any study that shows anything meaningful in re: weight loss reverses after 6 months.

The Author can choose to license the Copyrighted Work under various licenses. The common boilerplate that many Authors of GPL software choose to use is a boilerplate that says they are licensing their Work under GPL version X or any later versions supplied by FSF.

Basically the Author is directly saying (not through the GPL text) that "I trust FSF to come up with future licenses and call whatever they want GPL version Y [Y>X] and I'll be willing to license my work under that license sight-unseen also."
