Sure, why don't we just leave our countries to go live somewhere else when things don't go our way? Why not just give up?
To clarify here: You mean eating, for instance, bacon that is less processed (not injected with tenderizers, salt, msg, etc) is 'healthier' for you than bacon that is processed (all that stuff injected). You do NOT mean that eating less heated and cooked meat is 'healthier' than eating cooked meats. That the cooking process is independent (mostly) from the 'healthiness' of the meat.

Am I correct here?
Damnit, my existing cert expires September 12. Any free alternatives to that?

if by "latest" you mean the "rebecca"-release they advertise on their homepage, i got bad news for you. They ship with gtk version 3.10.x. The minimum api needed is 3.14.x . This dependency is available in mint since the "betsy"-release.

i just pushed a fix, so older APIs should work, too. Please pull the git and try to build again. Thanks for the hint :)
On the other hand, the Mac App store isn't as cluttered, and Mac users are much more willing to pay $19.99 or $29.99 for a Mac App. Who would pay $29.99 for an iPhone App?
Could just be a timed exclusive because in the FAQ they said that they haven't decided on plans for other consoles.

I think it should be relatively trivial to port, at least to Xbox One and other PC platforms. The Wii U might take some extra effort to work within the constraints of the hardware, but I'm not sure.
Just for people who only read the click bait title and not the actual google search, this is saying that this month, there have been more google news headlines that mention "ipod" than that mention "apple watch". So the level of interest they are referring to are about select news outlets and not consumer interest, and only ones featured by google news. For instance today there was 39 google news articles that mention iPod and only 30 that mention "apple watch". Ironically the iPod has seen greater interest by news outlets because apple has removed it from their main navigation with Apple Music. With the massive news of Apple Music service, iPod will certainly be referenced for historical purposes in many of those articles.
In the US, they finished moving away from trans fats in 2008 (When they stopped using it for french frying).

Maybe I just have low standards for success, but $220^H^H^H160/hour sounds pretty good to me. Also if it's sucessful on mac app store, a $2 version on iOS/android might be viable.
I seriously doubt you could design, develop, prep, submit app, and market for 30 hours and have anything that anyone would download for free, let alone pay $5 for. The sheer volume of users doesn't obviate the fact that there's a minimum level of quality for discoverability to kick in.
Maybe you just never had a properly cooked vegan meal. Seriously, tastes may differ, but it's simply hard to believe there is no vegan food out there at all that you would not like. (for the record, I do eat meat)
> The fixed rate VAT does not let you reclaim VAT, but you pay a lower rate than you charge your clients. So if you're a developer contractor you'll be adding 20% VAT to your client invoices, but only pay 14.5% to HMRC, keeping the remaining 5.5% to the business.

This is not correct. The way the flat rate VAT scheme works is you add VAT to your bill, then pay 14.5% of your "flat rate turnover" to HMRC. Flat rate turnover includes the VAT.

For example, let's say you did £100 worth of work for a client. You invoice them for £100 + 20% VAT = £120 in total. You must then pay 14.5% of £120 to HMRC (i.e. £17.40).
Actually no this comment and this policy are not OK. Shilling happens on this forum and it is never called out. It needs to be otherwise it will in time kill the forum.

Yes, quoting now from Bacon:

> Printing, gunpowder and the compass: These three have changed the whole face and state of things throughout the world; the first in literature, the second in warfare, the third in navigation; whence have followed innumerable changes, in so much that no empire, no sect, no star seems to have exerted greater power and influence in human affairs than these mechanical discoveries.

My goal in giving all those quotes was to suggest that the very phrase "greatest social revolution since the invention of the printing press" is likely hyperbole.

Also, it wasn't until the 1800s that the newspaper in the modern sense it came about. Other pieces of technology which have had caused social revolutions include the telephone, telegraph, radio, television, camera, automobile, train, airplane, and water and sewage treatment. It's hard for me to really tell which is the greatest.

"The Internet Revolution is leveraging communication to increase the power of the mind in the production of new ideas and knowledge"

That comes across like you have left out a chunk of history. The "Internet Revolution" is a subset of the Digital Revolution. Even then, information systems started in the late 1800s, such as the vertical filing system (created by Edwin G. Seibels in 1898) or the Hollerith cards used for the 1890 census.

For that matter, we are still in the Space Age and the Jet Age, and we still use the Information Superhighway, but those terms sound outdated to people who use GPS to figure out directions. "Internet Revolution" to me is starting itself to sound a bit dated.
It's interesting that you mentioned theme parks, because the title reminded me of the illusion created on Disneyland's Main Street by varying the heights of the buildings. At the front of the park, the upper level is close to full size, but as they get closer to the castle the upper floor shrinks.

As a result, the street looks longer as you enter the park full of excitement, and shorter as you leave it exhausted at the end of the day.

being damn sure in a lot of cases is impossible. as mentioned previously, nutrition is a very complex system that we have barely started to understand. you might think sitting idly is better than trying to move forward, but i think you are wrong. everything we have today is because people have moved forward in the face of obstacles. sometimes we fail, but eventually we will succeed.

Maybe I'll finally be able to find snack cakes and biscuits without partially hydrogenated oil. That stuff is everywhere, even when the label proudly claims '0 trans fat!'. Such a crock.

> but I doubt that eating a whole meat-protein full of the correct amino acids is less efficient than eating a combination of vegetable proteins to get the same effect.

It is entirely possible to have a complete diet, "correct amino acids" and all from a vegan plant-based nutritional plan.

The problem is acting like we do understand nutrition because a few new studies say something is bad. Especially when you start digging into the funding of said studies.

There is very little evidence to prove saturated fats are bad, but plenty to prove sugar is. Yet you don't see the policy makers telling us to eat less corn.

Also trans-fats (the ones that are bad) do not occur in nature which seems to be of the best predictors of whether something is net-good for you or not.
having a caloric deficit is literally the ONLY way to lose weight, this is described by the laws of thermodynamics.

If you eat exactly as many calories as you burn, you will never gain nor lose weight. If you consume more calories than you burn you will gain weight.

> EDIT: There's a reason Soylent is vegan; not to appease animal lovers, but because its healthier for you.

More likely, it's because it's easier to utilize without spoilage.

Also, the cancers you refer to are not specific to meat, they're specific to cooked (moreso charred) food.

Milk and eggs provide a complete protein that's hard to find elsewhere without doing a lot of pairing.

That said, the "emaciated" point is probably moreso about the "low fat" part of the comment. Fat is critical for hormone production among other things, and it would be very hard to be a "powerlifter deadlifting hundreds of lbs" without adequate fat intake. More importantly, saturated fat (and specifically dietary cholesterol, the kind found only in meat and dairy) is particularly well utilized for hormone production.

>this also raises the question why dictators in the north were not able to do the same

Because communism doesn't scale, doesn't really work past the stage of moving farmers into factories, and can only be implemented via punishing human rights violations that keep people from asserting their basic rights of property, prosperity, petitioning the government, changing leadership, etc.

A South Korean "strongman" is pretty weak sauce compared to a communist strongman. Chung-hee held back democratic reforms and was an autocrat. The Jong-un dynasty has sent tens of millions of people to starvation, labor, and death camps, including children, mostly for political reasons. These things are not remotely comparable.

Yes, some people were worried about it. The one person you actually named in your post was not. Bad start. In my experience the main way it got into the public consciousness was through climate change deniers in subsequent decades. I've never seen anybody talk about it who wasn't a climate change denier. Most people today would have no memory at all of a couple of Time magazine articles in the 1970s that made wacky scientific predictions that turned out to be wrong. There must have been hundreds of articles like that on all sorts of topics.

It was a minority position. There wasn't a huge amount of research published on the topic. As far as I know no government or corporate polices were ever changed based on the idea. So it isn't a valid comparison to the trans-fat issue at all. It's actually just a classic example of "small group of minority opinion scientists who got a disproportionate but still small level of media coverage were wrong". That happens all the time. The media loves a plucky outsider with a dramatic story to tell.

It's a strange topic for WUWT to bring up since that entire site is based on the idea that the majority of scientists are wrong and that a small group of people (mostly not even scientists) with disproportionately loud voices in the media are actually right. If you want to make an analogy then WUWT are the global coolists of today (but with even less scientific credibility since they publish basically no papers). Which is of course fitting since a lot of people on that site are still predicting an imminent ice age.
I thought it required heat plus a metal catalyst to convert unsaturated fats to trans fats.
HGH seems to be readily available on the black market. Obviously not ideal but given the circumstances..
Until scientific literacy improves, we're going to keep running into this wall.

People and organizations are seen as more reliable if they don't waver in spite of facts. Is it hardware, or software? Can we learn to favor those who update their decisions based on validated facts, or is it hardwired in how our brains perceive confidence and reliability?
Oops, it's good I didn't trust myself and got Crunch to do that for me :) Thanks a lot, I'll update the guide when I get a chance.
Gee, maybe instead that communism has been proven to be a economic, political, and human rights disaster? Oh right, of course not. Its the US's fault that broken ideology doesn't work, right? Communists never get judged by history it seems, at least on HN.

Is there anything in your mind that isn't the US's fault?

Ask HN: How do you deal with overly confident people?
I studied math in college. I've been working in Tech ever since. I am always careful not to argue for/against something unless I am absolutely certain.

Most of my career has been spent in developing software for Sales Ops departments of large companies and start ups. Personalities in this space (sales) tend to be the boisterous, loud, outspoken type. Even when they aren't sure, they speak so assertively that they easily sway other people's opinion, sometimes even my own.

Often, however, it turns out they were wrong, and without coming across as boastful that I was actually right or at least on the right path.

The problem is I never know this at the moment the conversation is taking place, it's usually after I take more time to think about it. How do you deal with this? Do I just have to turn it up a notch? Do I call them out and tell them to revisit the subject?

Curious to see how other engineer/tech peeps deal with this situation.

Sure, but there are tons of products that list '0 trans fat' while also listing partially hydrogenated oil in the ingredients. The FDA allows a certain amount of trans fat while letting the company claim 0 trans fat. Then the Bloomberg article says "The FDA said it hasn’t seen any data to prove that even low levels of partially hydrogenated oils are safe."
Wow that would be a bad robocar. I've chosen to hit animals, rather than swerving and possibly losing control, on numerous occasions. A robocar that would rather total itself is faulty. Then again a robocar that would choose to kill a child is also faulty. Until they can reliably tell a child from a dog, robocars will not be ready for general use.
OFAC regulations let this kind of transactions go through for quite some time now, but it doesn't receive a lot of media attention.

I think it's taking a long time for the Mac App Store to catch on-but I think it'll get there. When I find an app I want to buy I've gotten in the habit of checking the MAS to see if I can buy it there-I'd rather buy through the MAS and let Apple handle my credit card details and tracking of purchased software.

That's a high bar. A human driver with a split second to decide may not be able to do that consciously. Maybe robocars should only have to do as well as a human driver?
Presumably there's an up-front cost to hiring a permanent employee that they count on amortising over N years - leaving after a few months means they've (probably) wasted time, money, and effort.

(Although I would agree that the onus is on the company to set expectations at the start and play fair. I've left permanent positions twice after 3 months due to terrible working environments that they refused to sort out.)
The label currently can say 0 trans fat per serving, and what they actually mean is less than 0.5g per serving.

From the prev FDA rule:

>Trans fatty acids should be listed as "Trans fat" or "Trans" on a separate line under the listing of saturated fat in the nutrition label. Trans fat content must be expressed as grams per serving to the nearest 0.5-gram increment below 5 grams and to the nearest gram above 5 grams. If a serving contains less than 0.5 gram, the content, when declared, must be expressed as "0 g."

This story is a great reminder that there's a lot of potential for studying Regulations.gov API and writing an interface (and heuristic) for surfacing interesting rules and regulations...the trans-fat rule has been up for comment for long while now:

http://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=FDA-2013-N-1317

Maybe I'm in the minority of people who hadn't heard that this transfat regulation was soon to be implemented (as a former New Yorker, it caught me by surprise)...but there are probably many upcoming rules that are worth knowing about before they get published.
I frankly don't understand why people get so worked up about kids and the internet. I definitely watched plenty of online porn when I was kid. I spent lots of time on IRC, chat rooms, vent, forums, and in games talking to and playing with people who were significantly older than me. I had a great time, at no point was I "in danger", I was able to explore issues and questions I had in private, and I found the experience to be a great way to learn and interact with adults on a more equal footing. I think the only time kids can get into trouble is when they intentionally reveal their identity. As long as everyone remains anon, I think the internet is a perfectly safe place for kids on the whole.
