I do believe you can get fat even if you eat only "real food", the trick is to eat in moderation. If you eat more calories than you use up you will gain weight. It really is that easy. You could loose weight eating pastries only, just as long as you don't eat too much. It wouldn't be healthy though...
I would agree with you, but them listing such broad write IOPS ranges makes me think otherwise. I could be wrong though.

Fruit is so artificially selected that it's high in sugar, and probably not as healthy as people think - if not eaten in moderation.

Ask HN: Why isn't there a point score for comments?
It's great that you can up vote the best comments on HN. But the replies to that comment are then disproportionately highlighted. Often there is a great comment which has been voted to the top, but then there is a whole bunch of replies arguing minor points which are far less worthy of that real estate up the top than the 2nd and 3rd most up voted comments etc.

This is especially pronounced on the submissions with the most comments. It is almost impossible to navigate through all the comments and find the best. Obviously replies need to be nested and we can't simply list the most up voted comments to the least without any context, but a simple comment vote count would allow you to very quickly assess a comment's value as seen by the community and move through large threads. Why doesn't HN have this or some other solution?
Exactly.

The reason that there's so much focus on web standards is because Microsoft used their browser to force platform lock-in.

I don't see going webkit only as being a problem: Chrome is available on the three major PC operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux), it's free and it's not owned by a PC OS vendor.

Now if it was Safari-only or IE-only, then that would be a problem.

Motorola Moto XT760 Android Smartphone Price, Features & Specifications

This smartPhone offers 8.0 MP Rear Camera with Auto Focus LED Flash and 0.3 MP Front VGA Camera for cool video chats.
I would be interested in seeing the numbers on this, as I have a hard time figuring out how they could not make a huge profit on selling other people's work.
At the same time it is interesting to see this statistic and it is evidence that women will enter an industry despite cultural barriers in that industry. There are subtle anti-woman biases in medicine which are far more pervasive than anything I have seen in the software industry.

For example, if you look at gender in diagrams in medical textbooks, male figures are more likely to represent healthy, normal body functioning while female figures are more likely to be used where the figure represents disease.[1] Self-degrading Real Men(tm) jokes[2] aside I don't see anything similar to that in the software industry.

The big difference is that medicine is a relatively stable industry and you don't have the huge pushes to release a product that you do in the tech industry. Physicians often are better able to set their own hours and decide how much to work than can software engineers working for Marissa Mayer. So for a woman wanting to have a stable, secure career which is friendly towards starting a family will find medicine very appealing and high tech startups rather threatening. On the other hand if Google was having trouble recruiting women now, I would suggest they have a problem.

[1] See "Birth as an American Rite of Passage" by Robbie Davis-Floyd. This is also a wonderful critique of systemic sexism in modern obstetrics of a sort that does not go away with more women entering the field.

[2] such as Linus Torvald's "Real men don't use backups. They upload their work on FTP and let the rest of the world mirror them." Or things like "Real men use cat to write their source files." Obviously this is not suggesting these are normal models of operation.

You can see the vote count for your own comments.

Aging oil and gas industry engineer/project manager and environmentalist here. I really like this campaign! It provides an effective counter to the millions (billions?) of dollars the oil and gas industry expends in advertising and lobbying.

In my 25 year experience, the western oil and gas industry is on the balance very responsible when it comes to health, safety and environmental protection. I would much rather have Shell explore the Arctic than say Lukoil.

However, Greenpeace and other environmental activists are good part of the reason why western oil and gas companies are so concerned about the environment. In places where Greenpeace has low influence/support/visibility, things like this are pretty common:

I have dealt with enough pointy haired bosses in my work to realise that without effective activism, health, safety and environment would often be improperly compromised wrt cost, schedule and throughput.
You rant about non-correlations and such, and then end your post by jumping to a conclusion of your choice ("The problem is..."). Either you allow arguments by others (you are no biochemist either I guess?), or you stick to it, and leave it where it is - there is no scientific consensus about what "is the problem in our society". We can only argue about that, without facts.

I can't find the paper, but I read that high insulin levels are the new devil. If that's true, then bread (remember, mass production started only during the industrial revolution), corn, and especially sugar, are to be restricted as much as possible. Alas, you in the US have a massive corn lobby (real sugar became scarce during the Cuba crisis), so it would be difficult to do away only with corn.

IMHO the root of the problem is not that there's too much food, but the industrialization of the food processing industry. Everything has both advantages and disadvantages - we can choose from 1000 bread sorts, but many of them are heavily processed and freed from all micronutrients. And like every system, the food industry can go haywire, and I think it already has. E.g., look at what kind of chickens KFC breeds for use in their products. Food has therefore become a comodity, and people treat it like that. We are just not used to paying large parts of our income for food anymore, but we really should be - it's an essential part of life, just like housing. They key is quality, and being nice to both animals and environment is important.

> These beliefs are wrong.

Those are value judgements, they cannot be "wrong". You can judge them as wrong, but that's just one value judgement on top of another. There is no way to even hold a discussion between them on that ground.

> An indicator of the prevalence of these beliefs is the dominance of women in the nursing profession. This is hard, factual, statistical data that we can point to

This is hard, factual, statistical data that doesn't support your conclusion. Maybe women really do have a stronger preference for nursing jobs, or they are socialized that way, or those jobs fit their schedule better, or they like working with other women so they congregate in jobs already dominated by other women, or..., or some combination of the above.

Why take one piece of data and jump to the least charitable explanation? Sexism is just one of very many possible causes.

> Are blacks more likely to be criminals, or does the expectation that blacks become criminals increase the number of blacks being investigated for crime, leading to a higher rate of discovery?

Again, or both, or neither. Or both but maybe some other factor completely dwarfs those two you mention, rates of single motherhood come to mind.

So, because your body doesn't have the tendency to put on weight, you eat what you like. Your friends who tend to get fat easily watch what the y eat, but it's not helping them that much.

I think metabolism is a huge factor when considering the above examples; the guy that eats only healthy foods might not have an efficient metabolism and be doing enough exercise to burn off the calories he is taking in.

Also, the big guy that takes loads of pills (e's) and eats what he wants... I don't think this is a good example at all and it sounds like you also take them too (perhaps an explanation for you and your skinny jeans?).

I'm in charge of one of the largest datacenters in Iceland.

Two problems I see here:

(1) With datacenters, typically customers want to be located somewhat close to their operations, and we are only "local" to companies and organizations within the country.

If anyone has a better idea of how to market our state-of-the-art facilities abroad, I'm all ears.

(2) Data cost.

In Iceland bandwidth within the country is free, but bandwidth going outside the country carries a fee.

We take care of this by passing the charges on to the customer for the bandwidth they consume. While the charges are not overwhelming, whenever I read articles like this, I always notice how they never take things like this into consideration, but I'm sure a foreign customer definitely would (depending on what they are doing).

Perhaps this article is referring to more resource intensive type operations like genome processing or bitcoin mining, or perhaps we're just not advertising ourselves properly?

I have had them "monitor and manage" production servers where we were paying a small fortune in services(20k+) to them and there were more than a few times where they didn't even notify us the prod DBS were down. Basically they scom or mom and make calls after you get an email about an incident. Lame sauce, just get server density and manage it yourself.
I am quite familiar with ATG, having worked with the product since 2001. I don't believe that Oracle removed the license limitation on purpose, but rather to make ATG consistent with their other products which you can download, install and develop with, but as soon as you use them for production you have to pay.

You also have to factor in that ATG's old licensing department was chronically incapable of delivering the correct license files: they used to send out production licences for the wrong IP addresses, session limitations or bad expiration dates, and it wasn't uncommon to have 3 or 4 runarounds with them in order to have what you paid for.

That said, I'm not looking forward to use Oracle Linux in any of our production servers, unless my clients specifically asks for it and pays for the support. And this support has to be of very high quality, it will take me just one canned reply to put CentOS back in.

Moreover, companies which have more female execs report higher earnings. They literally make more money as the number of women in senior management increases.[1][2]

However "if many stock speculators believed Kay and Shipman, firm stock prices would jump upon hiring more female execs, making most CEOS quite eager to hire more women execs. There would be a boom in female execs and Kay and Shipman would not have bothered to write their oped. Since that didn’t happen, I’ve gotta believe most speculators don’t believe those studies, and so I shouldn’t believe them either. If you think otherwise, go speculate."[3]

I see this as two separate prophesies:

* One is the Intel MIC, which is due to arrive THIS YEAR (http://blogs.intel.com/technology/2012/06/intel-xeon-phi-cop...)

* One is a total revamp of Operating Systems, so that everything is virtualized.

The first is a hardly a prophesy, because it's so near to being reality, and the article was written on the day of the Intel announcement.

The second is maybe, what, 20 years into the future? I'm not even sure there's a need. Security problems are not technical anymore. They are caused by a breach of trust. Integration between all those different VMs will still be needed. Badware will use this interface too. People like integration. Separating everything into its own VM will hinder that, and customers will not like it.

Why should the cloud storage providers care what you store in your account, especially if it's all private? This sets a dangerous precedent. Imagine if Gmail didn't allow you to send "certain" images to someone else.

I think if they keep doing this, either Microsoft or any other cloud storage provider, it will be a huge drawback in trying to convince people to store their files in there instead of their own their own devices. This is something we'll all worried about before cloud storage services took off, and now that worry is turning into reality.
actually the correct article for the nominative of "Maus" is "die", in the title "Die Abenteuer der Maus" "der Maus" is genitive so that's why it stands with "der" but the correct nominative is "die Maus" ("Maus" is feminine).
