For anyone interested in on-the-wrist blood pressure tracking who doesn't want to spend the money on a Samsung Galaxy and hack SHMs, or wait for Apple to implement it, there are a plethora of Chinese smartwatches that already have the blood pressure monitoring and calibration capability that can be had for < $15.

My experience with them is that although I wouldn't trust these to diagnose a medical condition, the trends are correct and correlate to cuff readings - they're not just random number generators.

I just wish there were a way to export the data from the H Band app. Apparently, the data is stored in SQLite files.

hello guys,

I spend 24 hours making LinkedIn headlines generator.

What do you guys think of my LinkedIn headlines generator?
Not exactly. She's just admitted that he isn't someone she thought of. And that's likely because she's far more aware of the contributions of physicists to this field, than the attempted contributions of non-physicists. It's not that she's not aware that they exist - in fact she's painfully aware that there are a great number of them saying all sorts of things - its that she's not individually aware of them.

That said, if she had thought of him then she would have merely increased her sample size from 2 to 3, and still had the exact same conclusion.
You could partner with someone who doesn’t suck and distribute seed bombs.
I had the same kind of experience. Not as dramatic as that, but six months of careful dieting lost weight, but then within a month after I stopped calorie-counting I was back at the same original slightly-overweight weight I had previously plateaued at.
This strongly depends on what you mean by "theory of knowledge".

If you mean the practical importance of self-honesty, and a historical awareness of how easily we slip into self-delusion, then I agree. See, for instance, https://calteches.library.caltech.edu/51/2/CargoCult.htm for a very famous speech on exactly this topic. A lot of Feynman's writing touches on the same issue.

If you mean the musings of philosophers on epistemology, then I emphatically disagree. The philosophers in question generally have failed to demonstrate that they understand science. And when they venture into science, they generally fail to live up to the ideals that they proclaim that scientists should follow. As an example I direct you to the sight of Karl Popper arguing to the end of his days that quantum mechanics cannot be a correct scientific theory. An opinion that began because a probabilistic theory cannot in principle be falsified.

In fact QM is a scientific theory, and it stands as an example falsifying Popper's criterion for science!

I find it very ironic that Feynman is so disliked by philosophers for having been honest about how irrelevant they are to science. And philosophers in turn have failed to recognize Feynman's explanations of how to do science as a key topic that should be included in any proper philosophy of science.
NACS doesn't support 3-phase electric power so it is not an option in Europe.

Umm, wow. I do not share that reaction to the work. This is an awesome dev log and closet lesson in splitting up what seems like an insurmountable task into nearly-impossible-but-doable chunks. Love it.

For reference, this renders Bad Apple at 20fps in vanilla minecraft, with only a custom texture and some custom object definitions changed to allow more textures. The rest is (very exotic) vanilla.
My 1950+s grandparents drove everywhere and were fit. When we try to shoehorn so many agendas into one thing nothing gets resolved. It's also part of why so many people distrust everyone's agenda and truthfulness nowadays. Also 1940s America was mostly rural, not huge crowds of people walking together.

The goal should be to use Ozempic until you are in a better place to manage things yourself. The goal should not be to get people hooked on Ozempic for their entire lives.

Perhaps Ozempic prescriptions should come with prescribed exercise with check-in and monitoring, or something.

The macro X turns its argument into a string, but using it on its own means you can't turn other macro values into strings, only macro names.

#define F 42
#define X(s) #s
X(5) // Expands to "5" (as a string literal)
X(F) // Expands to "F" not "42"

If you add one level of recursive macro expansion, though, that expands the macro argument as well as the macro definition:

#define F 42
#define X(s) #s
#define S(s) X(s)
S(5) // "5" as expected
S(F) // "42" because S(F) expands to X(42) expands to "42"
Is there a technical reason that's not possible in a future update to NACS?

Taking ozempic will definitely keep people from gaining weight and will help them lose weight.
No, the processing time depends on the length of generated output.
? All I can find are a bunch of articles about one or more interviews she gave where she complained it made her too skinny (if you’re on it for weight loss rather than diabetes, you can simply adjust the dose down if you’re finding it too effective), nothing about almost dying.
> 3 phase is a huge deal, especially for commercial fleets.

Unless various European systems are weirder than I think they are, I’m not convinced I buy this. For a fleet, you have more than one car charging in a location. So you can connect each car to all three phases, use more complex AC-DC converters, and get a perfectly balanced three phase load for each car. Or you can connect each car to one phase and neutral or to two phases, use simpler AC-DC converters, and get an overall load that is still, statistically, close to balanced. And you can draw just as much total power across all cars in the two-wire configuration as you can in the three-phase configuration. And you use fewer wires and fewer switching elements in your circuit breakers.

It seems to me that the actual advantages of three-phase charging are:

1. A single car on a small three-phase service can charge faster if it uses all three phases.

2. A very long cable with only two current carrying conductors from a three phase service will have an unbalanced average voltage, thus potentially increasing capacitive leakage. (But a split-phase North American 240V system does not have this problem.)

> For the longest time people argued if overweight people ate too much or not.

Maybe uneducated people, but when was the last time anyone seriously doubted that excess calories make you fat? For serious people the discussion has always been about how to reduce the calories, because "just eat less" is provably ineffective. Simple minded people continuously suggest otherwise, but data really doesn't support their intuition at all.

> and it might not even be true.

And even if it is, it rarely matters.

During my time as an executive, the CEO of the company pushed for a return to the office despite widespread success with remote work during COVID. He personally disliked WFH, even though productivity data from every team showed improvements, and employee surveys were overwhelmingly in favor of continuing remote work. A small minority preferred the office, which was understandable, but the overall results were clear: WFH was beneficial.

Despite this, the CEO disregarded the data and announced that employees wanted to return, citing a need for in-person collaboration and productivity improvements—claims that directly contradicted the evidence that had been gathered. His decision was based on personal bias and gut instinct rather than the facts.

This led to significant fallout. As executives like myself left, key engineers followed, resulting in a mass exodus of talent and customers. Within two years, the company was a shell of its former self and was ultimately sold off for a fraction of its value to some shit kicker PE firm.

Also funny, was that the CEO had always hated WFH, even prior to Covid, even though he himself was always happy to exercise it personally. Even whilst doing WFH himself though, his opinion of anyone else WFH had always been that any of them claiming to actually work was "full of shit" and "taking the piss" and in fact doing absolutely nothing. This of course did not apply to him because he was an executive and executives are different.

I have discipline problems but when I am on site, my days are more filled with bullshit, e.g. random conversation over projects that lead nowhere, background conversations on unrelated topics, explaining stuff that aren't worth it, coffee breaks etc.

So while I believe it helps in term of team cohesion and for this purpose, on site is better, in term of productiveness it's a net negative.

Just fine mathematically, but Hillel does specify that he's not comfortable with the concept from a safety perspective. The whole piece is a defence against a particular type of criticism, but he leaves wide open the question of whether it's a good idea from a PL perspective.
I was pretty good with regularly taking my dose, but decided to go off after I felt entirely emotionally numb to everything. The closest I could get was feeling deeply sad watching a movie with an emotional scene and realizing I didn't feel any emotion. I decided to quit mainly because of that and other issues (mainly sex taking forever and feeling a bit hollow). I halved my dose every 3 weeks and stopped around 5mg (from 40mg). The zaps fucking sucked and lasted heavily for ~2 months. Even now 8+ years later every once in awhile I get that kind of rollercoaster drop feeling in my head every few days that had preceded my zaps previously. It would feel like an initial void in my head, followed by a shock travelling from my feet to my head and I'd legitimately jerk my whole body while it happened. It made me feel depersonalized and I found it most tolerable dissociating physically and just mentally observing the effect occur. Walking seemed to trigger it the most, but I definitely had some times trying to sleep where I just felt completely zapped with discomfort (less electrical fwiw). I would have to smoke a ton of weed to sleep and still feel a lingering disconnect from my physical self. Paxil initially helped a ton with my social anxiety and depression (likely triggered by feeling of inadequacy and being left behind my peers). Now I'm awaiting a diagnosis for ASD. I've been able to cope decently without SSRIs/SNRIs but have more or less accepted the feeling of incompleteness that follows me eternally. I still feel generally lost in life purpose, but have accepted that as best I can. I'm not sure if it's the ASD or the SSRI's but I do appreciate the mental pathways they opened, it just never lead to a conclusion I wanted to follow through with. Everything feels pretty arbitrary, I just try to enjoy life as it happens now.
From a PR and Marketing point of view certainly. I love WP but wary to use it now. This stuff make me nervous. WP is it's ecosystem, and these moves may slowly kill that. I see WP as the quiet never talked about on HN nocode superpower! Here is hoping for no more drama.

Yeah sure, that's the promise in the future, it's a demo of an unreleased product. It's all about someday when they are done. It was pretty clear from the talk at the beginning that Optimus is years out from being for sale to consumers.
Because that’s what feeds local businesses especially shops and service oriented jobs. I’m not saying I care that happens because remote workers can do that closer to their home so it’s a net zero game, but not in the eyes of business owners downtown or the mayors of said downtowns.
There is, but remote-first companies have learnt the skills to communicate this effectively without requiring members to be face-to-face or require hours of meetings.

That's what I see causes the biggest push-back against WFH: upper management who don't know how to communicate without being in-person, so they assume WFH is bad.

I think the problem is that everyone thinks they can ask better questions and almost none of those people are qualified to judge their interviewing competency or have data to back themselves up. Every company has its own special interview techniques that it's convinced will lead to the best possible outcomes when those only demonstrably lead to the current staffing. To question any of that means pointing fingers at pretty much everyone and that's a political non-starter.

Show HN: Sendsheets.com – send personalized emails from Google Sheets
hey y'all!

i'm a product leader and previous startup founder, so i send a ton of emails.

most businesses rely on google sheets as their backbone, but no tools make it easy to use sheets as a database for emails. most solutions either try to move you off sheets or are just clunky mail merge tools.

so sendsheets:
- lets you send personalized emails using data from google sheets and your own email
- tracks open rates and gives ai suggestions for improvements
- no sending limits during beta, free to use

a few main use cases currently:
- user correspondence/or your network for feedback or interviews
- event invites or project updates
- manage freelancers by sending status updates or project feedback

i use it all the time, specifically for the 20-50 recipients target

During COVID, like everyone else, our company went to WFH. Conversely, when we had a round of redundancies some of the people that were perceived to be important or productive in the office, turned out to be nothing of the sort, and were surprisingly let go.

They talked. A lot. They worked... very little.

The discipline in the office is to do the work, not go to the 'water cooler' and chat to anyone that was there or organise frivolous meetings.
