As someone who moved to Europe and also lost quite a bit of weight, the bigger factor was eating out is hella more expensive here. Junk food is also more expensive though still relatively cheap, at least in the Netherlands.

But yea, the EU does a lot better job policing what goes into food and it shows. Fruits and vegetables and meat that I buy here spoil within 2-4 days (and 4 is pushing it)! I had to adjust my purchasing habits because it would go bad before I could eat it all.

The public transportation and push to cycle and walk definitely helps, but at least where I live in the south, most families still own at least one car. The difference is that they only use it to drive to work and for trips. Any errands are done on foot or on a bicycle.
I think people should still think of TW as classes, because they are, and it doesn't need to be more complex than that.

Thinking of TW as inline styles is harmful imo, the specificity works differently and there are a number of things that TW offers that isn't possible inline. Plus inline just carries a stigma which helps people dunk unfairly on TW.
I have a no-display machine and I wish it had a few things that a screen would facilitate:

(1) Automatic shot timer.

(2) Shot volume display (my machine is a volumetric one, but I have to measure the weight of the output to calculate what volume it dispensed)

(3) Ability to configure other parameters, such as pre-infusion time, where I'm guessing the manufacturer just left this out because it would complicate an already kind of painful button + LED UI.

I also wish it had a group head temperature sensor, but that would add more hardware to the machine than just the screen.
"We" don't have to do any of those things.

There is no need for a society that forces, top down, every possible occupation to be perfectly split 50/50 by sex. Just let individuals make their own decisions.

In this case, why do we "need" more women coding? Maybe they are doing other work that is just as important and fulfilling and useful to society?
So.. the problem and solution is capitalism? :)

I’m frankly impressed by how many people still use Pinboard! Like, when I pin some recent niche news article, Pinboard shows that other tens of people already did the same…
In 1993, UNC Charlotte had one computer in its library with a big sign next to it explaining what the World Wide Web was. It would be a few years yet before home computers became commonplace in that region, and late ‘90’s before everyone was more likely than not to have a computer at home, and to have some sort of dial-up internet. I was purchasing domains in 1997-1998 for $3/ea, I believe (I wish I could have known then what I know now…). I sold my first website design job in ‘96, which would probably coincide with when many businesses around Charlotte were establishing websites for the first time.

Fun to think about.

In this context, “mainstream” may just be another way to describe Web 2.0.
While the biking/walkable city is a nice concept, it ignores how it is incompatible with certain lifestyles and hobbies.

Anyone into machining, high powered rocketry, or shooting or hunting.

YMMV but I doubt you could have a magazine and pass inspection from the BATFE or your state inspection for fireworks or explosives. And dense living near a gun range is impossible unless you got money to build a long range that can catch any stray rounds, when done in a rural area this is done using natural land and hills or building dirt mounds, which a walkable city would not have.
Notetaking in handwriting seems to be especially powerful for retention. Even when I had the option to type my notes in college, I kept on hand writing them (despite wishing since like middle school that I could type notes since extended writing with a pen cramps my hand).

Interesting, could you possibly share an example on how that would look like in Rust? Haven't come across it yet, and would certainly help with some things.

Lets say we want to make sure if "MyStruct" is ever defined + created, we want to make sure the program somewhere calls "register_struct" with an instance of that struct.

People may be heavier than 50y ago, but people are also taller than they were half a century ago.

"...the average height of a man aged 20-74 years increased from just over 5-8 in 1960 to 5-9 ½ in 2002" [1].

Despite the higher weight, life expectancy has increased too [2]. I'm not trying to handwave obesity rates, but pointing out that it's a mixed narrative.

The point is that "copies" was never the problem. "sampled by a computer and instantly recreated at scale" is the expected outcome of publishing something publicly on the internet.

Their problem was copyright infringement and like you said, our laws recognize that problem. We have an entire legal framework for dealing with companies that publish infringing copies of copyrighted works. None of that has changed with LLMs.

If a company publishes something that violates copyright law they can be sued for it, it shouldn't matter if an AI was involved in the creation of what was published or not.

I have bad news for you. Everyone judges people for these sorts of fashion choices (though perhaps not that specific one). Though some will do so more harshly than others, of course, and some enlightened folks will manage never, or rarely, to manifest or act on these judgments. And you'll absolutely never convince me that you don't make the same kinds of snap judgments about people based on things like what they're wearing.

It's healthy not to care too much about the fashion judgments of others, as you're suggesting. Is I agree with your first line. But you're otherwise bringing too black-and-white an approach to what is, in my view, an unavoidable part of social life.

Edit:

> Disregard, I forgot that HN has been infested with normies with poor reading comprehension.

OK. You object strenuously to anyone making any sort of judgment about a person wearing AirPods, all of whom should be completely cut out of your life, but are happy to throw out baseless insults at people who disagree with you in the mildest of terms on the internet. Got it.

This series of blog posts goes through various theories (and myths) regarding obesity.
> It is very hard to excersize yourself out of a high calorie diet.

Is it? Glancing around, it seems to me that the stark difference is between places where nobody walks or bikes anywhere — Tulsa, Little Rock, etc — and places where everyone walks and bikes — NY, DC, SF.
Unless the implication is that the author of this point is misrepresenting things, I'm struggling to think of what "very good reason" there could be when there's a clear record of someone reporting a bug well before it's fixed. At best, it seems like typical slow bureaucracy, which I don't think is a particularly good reason. There's no reason it should take over a year for someone to approve something like this if the company actually incentivized it. Your logic might be sound, but it's hard for me to look at a situation like this and think "company is either stingy or overly bureaucratic like companies overwhelmingly tend to be in almost every other circumstance" is less likely than "company has legitimate reason not to pay out a bounty that ostensibly has been fulfilled". It just seems way more plausible that the incentives that happen pretty much everywhere else have bled into this domain, assuming the author is accurately describing the events.

There's been an approx 80% decline in US infant mortality from 1963 to 2023 according to [0]. I know when comparing against pre-industrial society this is a big driver of increased life expectancy. There's another metric that adjusts for this that only looks at the life expectancy of individuals who survive to the age of (iirc) 15, but I don't have time to look it up right now. Perhaps comparing the change in that versus the one that includes the drop in infant mortality would be interesting though.

Good table. The device support for DivestOS will improve with device/cash donations, its basically a one-man project. SZ compiles all the monthly builds on his own machines, its quite an undertaking.

From what I understand there's been a fair amount of drama in the de-googled OS space.

My experience with DOS has been exceptional and I'd encourage anyone who uses it to donate towards SZs ongoing efforts. It's pretty amazing what he's achieved on mostly his own.
Because simply having the right to view something doesn't mean you can do whatever the hell you want with it. People understand this generally, but for whatever reason this is something tech people really struggle with.

I can freely view a billboard on the highway. I can even take pictures of it and post them and say, "hey look at this funny billboard!" I can't, however, take the billboard design, make a shirt, and sell that shirt. I can't strip the billboard and use its materials to build a house. I can't set the billboard on fire to keep myself warm.

Because those are all different things that require their own permission, their own license. We haven't thought about this much for AI.

The expectations for hostage-takers are pretty low, whereas the expectations for police are, if not sky-high, at least that they won't kill or injure you.

Disappointment is often proportionate to anger.

There's a second point which is, from a political perspective, police behaviour can be easily changed. Desperate criminal behaviour cannot.
I'd tentatively suggest The Concrete Island. It's not at all science-fictional, but it manages to wring a lot of weirdness out of a completely pedestrian (if you will) setting. It was written in 1974, but I think it works just as well today (just imagine his phone got broken in the accident).
> We've homeschooled before, and it would be trivial to pull them (and a small portion of the district's funding with them) and do it again, and they know it.

You'd homeschool your kids because their teachers find it odd that you're wearing AirPods during a conversation? To each his own, I guess.

> Nurse? If they commit intentional malpractice, my attorney is ready to go.

In what world does subtly judging you for wearing AirPods during a conversation qualify as malpractice?
Yeah, most people are going to agree. It also is one of the core points of the agile manifesto -- https://agilemanifesto.org/ -- "Responding to change over following a plan"
> secret is simple: Eat food, real food

This is modern voodoo.

I’ve eaten terrifically and exercised regularly. I’ve also been a slob and ordered Uber Eats from bed for a week. I don’t gain much weight either way. When I have, I can lose it within a week. (My figure changes. But not enough that clothes don’t fit.)

This isn’t because I follow some magic (ex post facto obvious in some way) diet. It’s my biology. Other people have different biologies that will save calories irrespective of the source and use; their basal metabolism adjusts to ensure they’re burning less than they eat, all the way to starvation.

In a calorie-deficit environment, or one stricken by plague that disease out digestion while the immune system goes full blast, I die first. In a calorie-rich and vaccinated world, they do. (Even then, mortality is higher amid low BMIs than moderate ones, largely due to disease outcomes.)
Apparently it's not exercise! [0]

Yes exercise is very healthy, that has been proven, but loosing weight is mostly a matter of eating less, at least according to this (reputable) meta source. Apparently, over eating but not getting fat (which holds true for me), leads to other problems (also true for me, I have an autoimmune disorder).

Eat less to lose weight. Exercise more to be healthy.

You’re saying this as an either or. Why does everyone need to live a rural area with access to a gun range? Vice versa just because we build more walkable infrastructure doesn’t mean literally everyone everywhere is suddenly walking 15 minutes to work.

Eating healthy, in the appropriate amounts, and exercising daily is the solution - obviously. Moving the mountains necessary to change America's average diet and lifestyle is much harder than giving out a drug. I agree that the drug isn't the "right" solution.

It’s novel. It makes unskilled artists feel like they have skill. It makes for easy, specific, good looking images. They can get quick images that are more specific than ever before very very quickly.

But that isn’t what making art or doing graphic design is. Making the image is the easy part most of the time.

Same with code. Rarely is writing the code the hard part. Solving problems within the constraints of a system are.

> the various tribal positions regarding which side has/has not or should/should not have unfettered access to free speech.

What are these? I hear some people arguing for free speech (aside from libel and immediate incitement to violence), some people arguing that speech should be abridged whenever they or somebody they support are offended, and the remainder paying people to argue that people shouldn't be able to say some particular arbitrary thing that will affect their personal financial interests negatively.

There is a problem with "free speech" people moving into the second category as soon as they get offended, but that's just hypocrisy. George Takei is right-wing on virtually every issue other than being Japanese-American and being gay. That's just how people are. The things that affect them are the real problem.

Thankfully I don't use iCloud Photo Library, but it's both weird to learn that when the photo library location has been changed, the new location does not get any protection. I would have expected the exploit to fail after setting /var/tmp/mypictures/Syndication.photoslibrary as the system photo library and opening Photos because the Photos app should know to protect this directory.

I just did a quick test on my Sonoma 14.6.1 system. Hold the Option key while opening Photos to create a new photo library in ~/Pictures; then use an app without full disk access permission and without photo permission to access that folder. That app was denied access. Then do the same except the new photo library is created in /tmp. That same app is allowed access. This behavior is baffling and inconsistent.

If Apple really intends to support the feature of allowing the user to relocate their photo library to anywhere on the file system, they need to apply the protection properly.

To be fair there's real issues with this approach, too. For example, shell scripts aren't actually very portable. GNU awk vs nawk vs... multiply that by all your tools, and yeah those scripts don't run deterministically (they rely too much on the environment). This alone was a big reason why systemd exists today.

But there's a middle ground here too. To me there's a HUGE gap between Kubernetes distributed systems and shell script free for all.

Yeah, it's hard to do a direct comparison, because bash needs a bunch of other utilities to be useful and they also take up space. In theory you can pick and choose but woe be to you if you want to use bash without sed, awk, cut, etc.

But it's true that, like, you get help with Powershell but that might not matter on a system where you wouldn't choose to install man pages or something.
> I wouldn't say rationalization considering the lack of experience of these teens. Lack of scope in life forbids this imo, hence my adhoc neologism.

Can you explain that more? In my mind anyone can rationalize their behavior ("a way of describing, interpreting, or explaining something (such as bad behavior) that makes it seem proper, more attractive, etc.", https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rationalization), so no experience is required. Even preschoolers can do it.
