Most diets are based on tricking you to eat fewer calories. Eating fewer calories is the only real proven way to lose weight. So-called "fad" diets just give you a strategy so you don't feel like you're starving yourself. Some people are successful with brute-force calorie cutting, or strict calorie watching, but there's nothing wrong with following a plan either, even if it is a "fad".
Providing a link to the issue in the bugtracker, with discussion, is definitely "showing something".

I don't know, maybe I'm just weird, but when I see a comment replied to with a single link patterns suggest that it's a link disproving something. So I got confused until I had read the full page.

Both Go and Java are more likely going to have a faster development cycle for many developers than C++ and are less likely to have memory management bugs because they are garbage collected and memory safe[1]. Compared to many languages like Ruby, Python, etc all three of those are "high performance" languages. With a lot of optimization C++ has the potential to probably be the "fastest" solution. It all comes down to balancing execution performance, memory efficiency and development maintenance efforts.

While Go is a young language, I find working in it to be extremely productive, it makes concurrency easy to implement and get right, and produces application with good run-time characteristics.

"Your funnel has a hole in it."

Hopefully it has two ... a big one at the top and a small one at the bottom.

The funnel metaphor has always thrown me off. IRL I don't pour stuff into a funnel and expect less than 100% of what I've poured in to come out the other side.

Why has funnel become a synonym for filter?

BTW, it is not just having software packages to use: it is a ton of work obtaining and preparing training data. That said, Stanford NLP and OpenNLP tools come out of the box with trained models for tagging, entity name recognition, etc. For lots of uses, these pre-trained models will work well for you.
Even better for him, -O0 is the default (for most compiler's I've worked with). You need to opt-in to optimizations most of the time.
Have you quit your job already ? I strongly advise that you figure out a game plan and instead of acting with emotions, use a more practical approach. The thing is that just quitting without any plans might work for you but it is also possible that you could be in similar situation as your father i.e. both struggling financially.

Unless you have some reasonable plan to help your dad out, I strongly advise against quitting your current job. Don't do it.

Hey steeve we thought there were a few things missing in the competition. We've built a bunch of extra functionality such as more extensive relation and dependency parsing and contextual entailment generation, and use all that to build much more accurate entity and topic recognition, an area we think the others can be greatly improved on.

We also expose all these results to a Prolog interpreter on our backend and allow you to add custom logic to mashup and extend all of our results, as well as provide a much easier integration experience.

Totally agree with you on the pricing front, we're still finalising the details there. We're aiming to be fully transparent with both the technical and business side of things.

Has anyone done this? If so, have they placed you somewhere? It sounds too good to be true. I know many will say if it sounds too good to be true that it is...but I'm seeking some genuine answers. They say they will train you at no cost...I do know the placement agencies charge a lot per candidate to the companies who hire so maybe it's worth it to train for free.
Chinese hackers can be beaten. The reason they are so successful right now is that the average level of computer and network and security competence in the world is extremely low.

In corporate America, the average employee is not sophisticated enough to resist spearfishing, which is how the vast majority of Chinese intrusions begin. But if the IT dept puts in place technologies or restrictions to protect against spearfishing (like quarantined browsers or blocking attachments), the average employees complain bitterly about the impact on their habits. And they don't like training. When management sides with employees, well-known security holes are left open.

Even upgrading operating systems, which is one of the most effective tools against intrusions, is met with fear and anger at many organizations.

Even without those front-line defenses, it is possible to find, stop, and eject the Chinese from corporate networks...but it is extremely time consuming and expensive to do so. Although they would never admit it, it's likely that many corporations make the calculation of "how much" intrusion they are willing to fight, and tacitly permit the rest. What they really want is not to stop the Chinese "at all costs", but to stop the Chinese for a given cost.

They can be quite easily made in any machine shop - albeit with varying degrees of success.

You can't say it's more trouble than it's worth because it's a sweeping generalisation, and different diets work better for different people.

Calorie restricted diet I have failed at many times before. Keto was difficult for the first month but now it's a doddle.

There's nothing wrong with carbohydrates either. Never said that. Carbs in moderation is a diet that most people I know seem to exist healthily and happily off. However elimination of carbohydrates is a tactic that's giving me awesome results, making me happy and more energetic. You do not need to consume carbohydrates to stay alive of be healthy.
> They just trick you into eating fewer calories by forbidding most of the food you ate before the diet.

I eat more calories than before judging by the amounts of meat/butter/nuts that I eat. I lost 15 kilos in body weight accompanied by a 5% reduction in body fat (-> gained muscle).

So at least on a personal level, I can really not confirm this.

I followed the guide exactly, so I could get a real feel for the system as I progressed.
It wasn't possible to follow the guide like this, as I had to SSH onto the boxes to find out what was going wrong.

I love Ansible. After having used puppet and chef at the company I work for, everyone was thrilled about how easy and boiler-plate free Ansible is.

Chef is great for bigger architectures, but if your goal is to provision a limited set of servers and document it's configuration in a readable format, Ansible is truly fantastic.
Agreed! I enjoyed eating paleo/low-carb for a while, but now I eat IIFYM and get the same or better results, because no food is off limits If It Fits My Macros. :)

In the end ALL diets work, but the best diet is the one you can stick with.

How Competition Strengthens Startups
In my 5 years of University in Germany, probably 95% of my courses had at least 300 students and there are exactly 2 professors who know me as more than "the random person who just raised his hand". Simply recording the lecture with a camera and putting the content online would have already been a huge improvement. Obviously closer supervision/contact with professors is a superior model, but sentences like "these students need engagement with their teachers to feel comfortable and to succeed" sound almost laughable from a German perspective. Would I have enjoyed the personal experience of a good US school? Probably yes. Would paying $20,000 per year in tuition for the privilege instead of no tuition at all have been worth it? In my case, definately not!

Just adding __ keywords is not the approach I described, though. I described adding __keywords, and adding a standard header that redefines them into non-underscore keywords. This avoids breaking old code (it won't include the header) while allowing new code to use nicer keywords, if it wishes.

What part of Paleo is a fad exactly? It's trying to replicate consumption of food we evolved off. A pretty simple idea. Sugar/carbs are not something readily available in human history in the vast quantities we eat them today.

Not entirely true. High protein diets allow you to eat more calories because the thermal effect of digesting protein results in a loss of 25% calories (of protein).

Well, that's the problem...both look good to me. Similar style, technologies and philosophy behind both.

I'd really appreciate a deeper comparison, though - especially if you feel that there are certain areas/circumstances where ansible may shine over salt.
HOWTOs for a Common Lisp environment
About point #2:

Using your web design/development experience, start a blog relating to reviewing tile quality, articles about color suggestions based on room color or size, etc.

Find out what you can from your dad about best practices in installation and maintenance on tile and other options for floorting, etc. and offer advice to do-it-yourselfers.

Start an email newsletter, slowly, slowly build up an audience, and offer a way for potential customers to contact you for work.

People trust hiring someone who exhibits more authority in their niche.

After building up a blog, you can also look to use websites like ServiceMagic (now HomeAdvisor) to find projects. My dad has used this site many times to hire contractors and has always had a good experience.
That's not actually the problem; communication doesn't change the game theoretic situation. In the classic scenario from which PD gets its names, the conspirators are presumed to have mutually planned not to cooperate in the event of arrest, but each has an incentive to defect from the plan to maximize their own expected payout (or, actually, to minimize expected cost, but the two are equivalent.)

One problem is that they can see eachother at the door and change their mind, so its not just advance communication but immediate interaction.

The bigger problem is, since they could get the maximum grade by all cooperating, the payoff matrix is wrong for PD. PD requires that my maximum payoff is in the "I defect, other(s) cooperate" corner. Putting the maximum guaranteed payout in the all-cooperate scenario makes it a very different game, which no longer has a dominant strategy of defection.

All oils are calorie dense, not just canola.
It really annoys me as e.g. the trend in industrial bread making is to reduce the relative quantity of flour (the most expensive ingredient), in favour of cheaper vegetable fats. This is achieved by the addition of emulsifiers. So the calorific value of the bread may go down, and you'll have to eat more bread to make you feel as full, but the overall nutritional balance is completely skewed away from what was originally a quite nourishing, wholesome food (the majority component of the European diet at one time).

Next time you buy a loaf of bread look at the end of the list of ingredients. If there is an emulsifier listed it's a red flag; there really should only be Flour, Water, Yeast and (some) Fat. You can also tell the quality of the bread by squeezing it and feeling for the spring-back. Many supermarkets don't actually stock 'real' bread.

I was alerted to this by reading the book 'Not on the Label'
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22not+on+the+label%22+bread
When you eat low-carb, your body depletes your glycogen stores (if you go as far as keto, you're emptying the glycogen and switching your metabolism to run on ketones). Every gram of glycogen is stored with 3-4g water. When one goes low-carb (especially coming from a high-carb diet) they will loose a LOT of weight quickly, but most of this is water weight, not body fat.

> The Chinese government monitors Internet speech and content. It doesn't care about how many viruses or hackers are there.

This is counter to the public position of the Chinese government, which is that they consider cyber attacks to be crimes that they aggressively pursue and prevent.

It's also a meaningless distinction, as most viruses and cyber attacks originating from Chinese IP space use content as a vector.

Fruit is high in sugar (fructose). Some fruit, like apples, have low calorie density and high fiber and water content so they are very filling for the calories you consume. Others, like grapes and bananas, have higher calorie density and should be eaten in moderation just like anything else that's full of sugar.

Pubmet doesn't agree that whole milk has good fats

And skim milk tastes better than the fatty stuff. It turns out that taste is subjective and modifiable based on life experience. (That is why coffee is tolerable to adults)
Does two-factor auth have to be that expensive to implement these days?

Doesn't solve the problem of users without smart phones though, which I imagine is still not ignorable at most universities.
Yep. But even though almonds are ~20% protein, they are also ~50% fat. It's not the best protein source by a long shot.

While the TEF of protein does reduce it's net caloric contribution by about 25%, that doesn't matter if you eat in excess of TDEE, which will result in weight gain regardless of the kind of foods eaten. Upping protein to reduce hunger works really well, but there are better foods than almonds to do this (cottage cheese, meat, fish, whey protein, etc).

From the article: "North Korea threatened South Korea with 'final destruction' during a debate at the United Nations Conference on Disarmament on Tuesday, saying it could take further steps after a nuclear test last week."

The Republic of Korea (South Korea) has an official Ministry of Unification

http://eng.unikorea.go.kr/CmsWeb/viewPage.req?idx=PG00000005...

tasked with figuring out how to promote eventually reunification of Korea under one national government. The reunification of China (the mainland region and Taiwan) is an official policy of the regimes on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, with substantial dissent from that policy in Taiwan. The reunification of Vietnam was achieved by the Vietnam War, not at all peacefully. The reunification of Germany by the fall of the Berlin Wall and the political changes in eastern Europe in 1989 was, alas, a cautionary example to South Korea. Observing how difficult it was for a developed, democratic country (West Germany) to absorb a backward former dictatorship (East Germany) made many South Koreans cautious about pushing forward the inevitable process of regime change in North Korea.

But while North Korea is officially bent on destruction of South Korea, the long-term hope for peaceful development of the Korean Peninsula makes eventual regime change, peaceful or otherwise, inevitable for North Korea. Putting off the inevitable appears to be allowing the south even more time to widen its economic and political gap with the north, and to gain much trade and many diplomatic links with countries all around the world, even China, the only consistent ally and supporter North Korea has. But sooner or later, the regime in the north has to go. It is ready to be put on the ash heap of history and eventually to become no more than a painful memory of a period of oppression that led to a kind of national insanity.

The Stanford parser is great, but isn't really the same. The Stanford entity recogniser is limited to the standard types of people, places, companies, but we identify and disambiguate into a far richer ontology from wikipedia, and can recognize topic abstractions that aren't explicitly mentioned.

Also we found the Stanford tools (and the other open source NLP tools) were difficult to integrate into "production" apps for various reasons. One big one was performance - we aim to run the full parsing and extraction pipeline on an average news story in a few hundred milliseconds, which can be an order of magnitude faster than the others.
