> Seems like you are cherry picking data and ignoring other data from the chart - sure the total sugars from 2000-2020 are down slightly while what’s being labeled as “corn sweeteners” or HFCS is up 3x

HFCS consumption is still higher than it was in 1970, but it has declined since 2000, and its decline has driven the overall decline in sugar consumption, yet obesity and diabetes incidence have only increased.

> some cases T2D can be reversed by minimizing sugars/carbs and increasing fats so your mitochondria is primarily using ketones rather than glucose.

"Reversed" means you can eat carbohydrates normally again. If anything, high-fat, low-carb diets seem to worsen actual insulin sensitivity, which carbohydrate restriction just masks (even then, not always, as many on keto find when they check their BG): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5291812/

Severely restricting carbohydrate enough to get an artificially low HbA1c or fasting BG and claiming you "reversed" diabetes is like claiming you "reversed" your lactose intolerance by never drinking milk. But actual weight-loss (however you achieve it) does improve real insulin sensitivity, but low-carb isn't magic when it comes to that either.
The post was removed likely due to a ton of downvoting. It was from a company that posted the same job ad every month for about two years and consistently ghosted candidates.
I’ve never seen or heard of 2FA being needed for BIOS access. However maybe we could consider “physical presence” as one type of factor, which does reduce the risk a lot.
Sending a check via mail is infrequently done, but it happens. I just paid my annual property taxes that way. My options were:

* mailing a check

* paying via credit card over the phone for a hefty surcharge

* cash in person

In my case, I used my online banking to send the amount to the mailing address on the bill. In some cases - for large companies, typically - my bank can send the remittance electronically. In others, though, they fill out a paper check on my behalf and send it via the postal system. This service is fee free to me, or else I’d have sent the letter myself.

Those words would be socially disqualifying in many places I go, such as business meetings, most interactions with adults, most public interactions (for example, with a clerk at a store).
Hahaha I love it. Extinction Rebellion but for dentists? ... How about "Extraction Action"?

The main issue I foresee is that there's just so much to be outraged about in the world now. People are using shameful behavior to distract from worse shames - it's been weaponized!

So, making a significant impact in a crowded 'shame market', across a tightly controlled media landscape, generally requires a highly skilled dedicated team.

I was wondering about this problem since this thread; specifically, wouldn't it be rather easy to use big data techniques to catch dentists who are way outside norms?

And after looking into it, it seems that insurance companies, Medicaid etc have been doing exactly this, and catching some pretty big fish. It's new for me to give insurance companies much credit for doing anything good, and I feel weird now. Real enemy of my enemy stuff.

He blocked me on Twitter for a very moderate counter point/alternative offering type post. I'm typically a reasonable person and not rude as a rule, I didn't feel like I'd said anything untoward.

This team’s ongoing, and frankly unhealthy, fixation on Prisma is getting so damned old (and childish).

It's rare to witness a group so openly attempt to undermine another, while simultaneously drawing on the very same team’s ideas to inform their own product direction. Despite repeated public feedback calling out this unprofessional behavior, there appears to be little desire for growth or maturity.

Kudos to the Prisma team for consistently upholding a high standard of professionalism by ignoring them.

Wondering why you posted this... do you condone such childish behavior?
That's because the authors are reporting results for AOT scheme to c compilers.

For languages more directly supported by llvm/gcc, they already do various kinds of function versioning and specialization.

You would be highly unlikely to get 10% there from a magic bullet like this - in the end, there are no magic bullets. Just lots of hard work.
Rigorous scientific study in the nutrition field is extremely hard to do.

Most studies rely on self-reported data, and people aren't very reliable in confessing what they ate and in what quantity. We are also a long-lived species and many effects take decades to manifest. Differences in environment (e.g. water impurities), genetics and gut microbiome confound the issue further.
Are you talking about the host (calendar owner) or the client (subscriber)?
Naively, I would have assumed that the "correct" way to write a syntax highlighter would be to parse into an AST and then iterate over the tokens and update the color of a token based on the type of node (and maybe just tracking a diff to avoid needing to recolor things that haven't changed). I'm guessing that if this isn't done, it's for efficiency reasons (e.g. due to requiring parsing the whole file to highlight rather than just the part currently visible on the screen)?

This is wild to me. As someone who's done some eng management and has also read a lot of psychoanalytic theory, the only things I would actively ask my reports to "open up" about emotionally are what they like and dislike about tasks and processes, so I can better distribute work that satisfies them and remove frictions. That said if they want to tell me more, I'm happy to listen.

Otoh when dealing with peers at director or C level, things tend to get significantly more psychological, likely because their facility of judgment, which is ultimately psychological and moral, is functioning with far higher leverage due to their organizational authority.

I believe the discussion of the “fix” for Healthcare as who has insurance and who doesn’t is wrong. Same with co-insurance or no co-insurance.

The fundamentals is that as a society we are getting older and sicker. Insurance fundamentally is about cost and risk sharing. The young are paying into a system that is mostly used by the old. That is unsustainable. In a private market, we are seeing doctors refusing to join certain insurance plans. And some insurance plans dropping certain coverages or pulling out of some markets.

I believe the fundamental fix for an aging sicker society is more healthcare and more affordable healthcare. Train more doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare providers. We need to increase supply to catch up with demand.
It was significantly easier than other 1-card draw implementations I've played. I wonder if the logic used to ensure the game is winnable causes a bias towards easier shuffles.

Some additional feedback:

Still would be nice to just put in website.com and have it assume I mean https://website.com

- If a title is required maybe offer the option to just set the title as an emoji or something. This is definitely just my personal feedback I could be an outlier here.

- Once I submitted the email went to spam. I assume there’s not much you can do here other than become more established.

- After clicking the confirm link I’m taken to a page that says my changes have been confirmed and saved. I’d expect messaging along the lines of your page has been created along with a link to my page. Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/leus6ntppsf9yihe6i1sb/Lynx.Bo...

- At this point the only way I found to get to my page is just to type in what I assumed was the url format into the browser: lynx.boo/username

Wrote the feedback as I went through it. Once I see the page itself I understand why a title is required and an emoji might not make sense. Love the super clean layout and simplicity though, I will keep this tool in mind.

I've gone Abaqus > Ansys > Abaqus/LS-DYNA over my career and hate Ansys with a fiery passion. It's the easiest one to run your first model in, but when you start applying it to real problems its a fully adversarial relationship. The fact you have to make a complete copy of the geometry/mesh to a new Workbench "block" to run a slightly different load case (and you can't read in an orphaned results files) is just horrible.

Abaqus is more difficult to get up to speed in, but its really nice from an advanced usability standpoint. They struggle due to cost though, it is hugely expensive and we've had to fight hard to keep it time and time again.

LS-Dyna is similar to Abaqus (though I'm not fully up in it yet), but we're all just waiting to see how Ansys ruins it, especially now that they got bought out by Synopsys.

I've heard that certain lisps (Common Lisp comes up when I search for reader macros) allow for all kinds of tinkering with themselves. But the ability of one to make itself not a lisp anymore, while interesting, doesn't seem to say much about the merits of sticking to s-expressions, except maybe to point out that somebody once decided not to.

These days, I prefer google sheets for most things spreadsheet, but Excel is far and away more capable, and after a certain level of complexity, just unbelievably fast in comparison.

Again, it depends a lot on your experience with vehicles. I expect someone who had driven a manual for a long while (or even learned on one but hadn't driven one recently) would be radically more likely to come to "Oh, select neutral" as a solution than someone who has only ever driven automatics. "Neutral" is far more part of "life with a manual" than it is with automatics - I would be willing to bet that a substantial fraction of automatic transmissions have never been deliberately put in neutral.

My daily driver has an archaic manual sequential transmission (2005 Ural - sidecar motorcycle sort of thing), and I select neutral at every stoplight I'm likely to be at for a while to avoid wearing the clutch bearings. Also, I have to most of the way double clutch my shifts on that bike (pause in the false neutral between gears) to avoid too much clashing. If I had a runaway throttle condition (certainly possible), I have at least three instant methods I'd use (kill switch, clutch, and rock it into a false neutral). But I've spent most of my driving career with such things, and vehicles that don't have those are a bit of a novelty to me.
If you have holes, I would think you should generally be able to make arbitrary structural edits without ever passing through any outright invalid states, not unlike taking Lego bricks apart and reassembling them in a different configuration.

Recovering from bad parses is the state of the art in the industry right now, but it suffers from the "garbage in garbage out" problem because the user's intent is lost. In point of fact it is never captured in the first place! When you say that typing `let` ghosts out should all that other stuff, that's based on pure assumption. The state of the editor would look just the same if the user was part way through typing out the word `letter` which they intended to use as an identifier. No technology in the world can make things right after the user's intent has been lost.

The real way forward, the direction nobody is looking, is how to make tools that are more like musical instruments. An instrument doesn't guess at your intention and then aim to please you, but rather it amplifies the importance of each decision and impulse that go into playing it, making the player more expressive then they could have been otherwise.
One thing I marvel at is despite the apparent usefulness of graph databases no major cloud provider offers a hosted graph db solution, with the possible exception of CosmoDB and marketplace Neo4j. It makes me wonder whether there is more operational complexity than value, or if your average developer/architect isn’t finding enough use cases that can’t be done with more traditional RDBMS.
I do like the spirit of "developer driven development". The developers (and testers and other vital roles) are the endpoints for discovering and solving problems. There should be clear routes and aims of communication so that a problem is known to the right people to investigate and fix it. By Conway's law[0], development is only as effective as the organization of the developers. So there should be structures that clearly facilitate the right amounts and kinds of communication to develop effectively.

The behavior of many CEOs engaging in mass layoffs certainly doesn’t demonstrate that they’re aware of it.

That’s why requiring massive CEO pay cuts when they engage in mass layoffs would be a good thing. It would help remind them that layoffs are a failure and the buck stops with them.
Yes, there are more "types" of foods that are high in fat and sodium, but that does not mean that these foods are more popular or more hyper-palatable than the ones with sugar. We would need another, different study to resolve this.
Mail-in ballots are worst of all, and the people who advocate for their expansion will regret it when they see entire church memberships filling out their ballots together, checking each other to make sure they voted correctly, and shunning, expelling, or firing people who don't participate.

There are currently many heads of household voting for their entire families, and even aside from mail-in ballots, there are people watching and photographing other family members voting within polling places, and uploading the photographs to social media with parental pride. In many places, this is not even criminal anymore.

Paper ballots, with voters having no method to prove who they voted for (no-receipt), in a private booth.
Not really. Everyone is paying monthly anyways it can just be a part of that or a surcharge on top. And I don't envision this being a mastodon thing but a "serious writing/news/art" kind of thing. Alteady there is a lot more asking of direct support online than twenty years ago. KoFi, medium subscriptions etc. I think people are open to the idea of direct sponsorship of creative people they like. The product space is there we just need good infra.

I dont think citizenship has ever been taken away from another immigrant 30 years after the fact for working on a student visa.

There have only been a several hundred denaturalized immigrants in the history of the US, and they were for things like false identity with outstanding deportation orders.

What if we changed the fundamental equation of the game: no more "responsible" disclosures, or define responsible as immediate and as widely published as possible (ideally with PoC). If anything, embargoes and timelines are irresponsible as they create unacceptable information asymmetry. An embargo is also an opportunity to back-room sell the facts of the embargo to the NSA or other national security apparatus on the downlow. An embargoed vulnerability will likely have a premium valuation model following something which rhymes with Black Scholes. Really, really think about it...
As someone who also has written my fair share of Python, I completely agree. Piping and subprocess handling are my two main complaints as well.

Managing concurrent processes is arguably also easier in shell scripts, in that you can just append “&” to run stuff in the background and “wait” to sync.
But ordinary use of qBitTorrent is fine. The only part with a clear path to code execution (assuming MITM and no certificate verification) is the initial install of Python - which is only required for certain features, only installs once, and requires user confirmation to start.
This looks like a risky thing to try from your main Google account.
