That study suggests (i think) that mice on the 24h fast developed insulin resistance in the liver, a sign of prediabetes.

Since I actually like the one-meal-a-day lifestyle, I wonder which study is more applicable to humans...

It's funny. This article paints a picture of incredible industrial innovation, but if you look at dutchstartupjobs.com, the majority of the startups here seem to be social media or marketing related, just like the rest of the country.

It's the service industry capital of the world.

Of course, some of the high tech startups/SMB's that do exist here can be pretty damn impressive! The list of Dutch startups on this site gives me hope: http://www.climate-kic.org/start-ups/
Amazon Marks 20th Anniversary with “Prime Day,” Its Answer to Black Friday
Here's my pet idea for a hardware product I'd totally use:

A Google Glass like device without most of the functionality (no camera or mics) or processing hardware (doesn't have to run its own OS), except the display (this should cut down costs quite a bit and make it a bit more feasible to manufacturer and purchase than Google Glass itself).

You connect devices to it using Miracast and/or some other wireless display tech and extend/mirror your smartphone/laptop displays.

It can serve as a portable multi-monitor setup for productivity, or a simple portable heads-up display for entertainment (video playback, reading) or utility uses (navigation).

That'd be the MVP anyways. In future revisions you can maybe add things like a mic and/or camera for things like augmented reality and voice control, but figure out how to offload the processing to the master device (laptop/smartphone) rather than dedicating hardware to it on the device itself for affordability and battery life.
I have done IF as part of a weight loss program (basically I save 90%+ of my allowed calories for a single daily meal).

I also went through more traditional programs, where calories are spread more evenly over different meals throughout the day.

In my experience both methods work very well, especially if paired with exercise, and I couldn't really see any difference in terms of health benefits.

Personally though, I found that the IF works better from a psychological standpoint, and I'm more likely to stick to it longer: the single meal I have tends to be much more satisfying and allows for appetizing foods and quantities that I could not afford if spreading the daily allowance on more meals.
I don't think so :)
Interesting, I found this quote very appropiate here, specially because its meaning is quite ambiguous to me. And so are the times we are living in the EU.

For instance, given Varoufakis's resignation, we could interpret the man in different ways:

1) As a person who chose not to be in the arena(in TR's words).

2) A man who was already in the arena but already failed while daring greatly.

3) A man who was already in the arena and arrived at triumph of high achievement, by allowing the Greek people to challenge the Troika with a referendum. And his resignation is just another triumphal move.

I do agree tho that filling comment threads with open-to-interpretation quotes is not very constructuve. Still one here one there can make the issue less black and white - which is good IMHO.
The contents of the green box make the labels paradoxical; but it's OK because paradoxes exist.

Consider a paradox such as "This sentence is false". There's a problem with deciding if it's true or false. Countless articles and books have been written about it, and there exist different ways of dealing with this "difficulty". However, nothing prevents you from actually writing these letters on a piece of paper, and nothing prevented me from typing them a few seconds ago. The puzzle we're talking about makes the same point in a more amusing fashion.

Unless by law? Well, at least that one isn't a problem for a government.
If your only concern is reducing the number of mass shootings, yes, that is exactly (and the only) correct answer from the data. The only reason why the US has more of these shootings is because we have more guns, and reducing the number of guns will reduce the number of shootings.

However, the fact that these are extremely rare occurrences needs to be noted. Gun control has a lot more factors that are probably much more important than the rare issue of mass shootings.

To put it in perspective, doctors' sloppy handwriting kills roughly 7,000 people annually. That's far more than combined spree shooting victims. Certainly mandating doctors to type out all communication would be much easier than the herculean task of ridding the US of guns.

And the broader gun control issue has other issues and data that would need to be examined. Unfortunately, we don't have particularly good data regarding guns in the US due to the effective ban on government funded gun data (thanks NRA!).

Personally, I'd like to see the first step in gun control being federal funding directed toward research. Do guns (concealed carry, etc) actually deter other forms of violent crime? How many homeowners have used guns in self defense during a home invasion?

For example, a study in the 1990s found between 800,000 to 2.4 million defensive gun uses annually (Kleck & Gertz). And apparently while in the UK roughly half of all burglaries are when homeowners are present, in the US it's only 13%. There's also some data that suggests increases in crime rates in the years after gun bans, but the data comes from strong pro-gun sources and I'm a bit skeptical as to the validity.

Basically the data I could find regarding general gun control is spurious at best. We need better data on the pros and cons of gun ownership, and our decisions should be driven from that data and not anecdotal or tragic but extremely uncommon (statistically) events. So in my opinion, the rallying cry when national attention is on guns should not be taking head conjecture from all sides, but rather a national plea for better data so we can have an informed opinion on the issue.
"I'm 22 and I feel if I don't hit it big within the next 2 years I probably won't. "

I'm not sure what you want to achieve but in general the real world is not that strict. You are stuffing your ambitions into a tiny box and for no good reason. I would advice you figure out where you want to be in the next 20 years. This will give you a far larger scope for your thoughts.

I'm a bit worried about ES6 making the language harder to understand.

For example, scoping: For backwards compatibility reasons, var has to stay function scoped. But now we also have let, which has different scoping rules. Also, Symbols: [Symbol.iterator]() - what? Why?!

On the other hand, stuff like arrow functions, template strings, modules and tail optimization are awesome.
You are right it doesn't matter how Uber is classified -- just the vehicles being permitted on to the section of Market Street in question.

If the vehicle is not one of the permitted kinds of vehicles, it gets ticketed.

Uber is really irrelevant. The original article title is link-baity. From what I have heard, they didn't even show up at the hearing and most of the public comment was in favor of the closure.
This is the time to show solidarity by activating our resources and bootstrap a new economy.

The banks together with our rampant financial illiteracy all need to go, are we still not able to scale blockchain transactions? Is there a secure "libbitcoin" written in Rust yet? Do we have super secure and crypto currency focused "micro" operating systems / servers on open hardware?

Where are the people working on this? As a global economy - and civilization - we need to stick together and show some love and ingenuity.

That's true to a point, but replicability really is the cornerstone of science. A replicable result, even if it's ridiculously implausible, at least needs to be properly investigated to see where the mistake lies. There's something there that is investigable (is that a word?). Conversely you can have all the controls and peer review you like, but if the result isn't replicable it's garbage. Just nicely presented, plausible garbage which frankly is the most insidious and dangerous kind.

There have been some interesting studies into replicating results from published research that have found that only a very small fraction of peer reviewed papers present actually replicable results. That's shocking.

Imagine oneself playing a game of Simon Says, where we don't know who Simon is or which bits he's actually saying, he in fact sounds exactly like everyone else giving us instructions: we can choose to believe what we want about the actions we are told to make, but an adversarial Simon can always contradict us. It's not a game I'd enjoy playing nor a lesson I think I benefited from very much...

I'm not disagreeing with you on the public opinion of either France or Germany on Greece. But it is in their leader's (France and Germany's) best interest to `help` Greece despite the public's opinion, as public opinion does not always align to the needed course of action.

In Greece's situation, the public opinion (by form of referendum) is used to cement their bargaining position, i.e. the people are ready to accept the repercussions of debt default if they don't get a better deal.

Which is why the negotiation is continuing / will continue, otherwise it will be a terrible lose-lose situation for all.

Definately not a hard problem. For logos, impossible because of customisation, but for regular text, it's simple. Capture image, make a box around text, warp to flatten, highten contrast, split characters, process characters for features, check against database of known features of fonts. It's similar to a facial recognition algorithm.

I don't know if its generally accepted yet, but I wish it was, and hope it one day is. For the last few years, I've found that Emotions vs Logic is very analogous to Magic vs Science.

"Magic is just Science we don't understand yet"

"Emotions are just Logic you don't understand yet"

When people believed Magic existed, and it was uncontrollable by the majority there were negative outcomes. Those with magic, exploiting those without it. Those without magic, fearing and killing those with it.

However, when the general attitude changed to: Although we don't know the science behind it yet, everything happens for a reason. It gives people hope that they can uncover that reason. They are also less prone to being exploited by it and reduces the chances of fearing it. Succinctly, believing in Science democratizes access to "Magic".

Similarly, if a person believes emotions are outside reason and therefore outside their control, they are more likely to succumb to them. Meanwhile, believing emotions are controllable, not only provides hope for people that dislike their current emotional state, but it is also directly proportional to increasing the belief that you are also in control of your response to those emotions.

I'm sorry, why is that question a relevant one?

Would it matter to the author whether it was one person or many in her specific case? Would it make the harassment any less troubling or alarming?

Would it matter to the general case, since the author's story of harassment is certainly not a unique one in our industry?

So what point would the answer to your question prove one way or the other? Not much. Which is also why OP's post is horseshit both from a rhetorical perspective and from a human perspective.

OP's theory is a minimization tactic. Oh, well the harassment is probably only one person. Oh, the harassment is probably by a troll or troublemaker who's trying to cause a gender war.

The author's case is not unique. In trying to minimize the source of harassment you are attempting to undermine the author's point.

She is being harassed for participating in our industry, and that is really fucked up. There are people in our industry who either believe this behavior to be acceptable, or they think they can get away with it.

So, once again, how about we dispense with the crack-pottery, either do something helpful or maybe just lay off the "add comment" button.
There are two very different "startup scences" in the Netherlands. The social/cultural/financial startups seem to aggregate around Amsterdam. For the more interesting and high tech stuff you have to look at Delft, Twente, and in particular the Eindhoven areas. For food and agricultural stuff, the place to be is the Wageningen area. Often, from an international or Hollandish perspective, the Netherlands is equated to Amsterdam and vice versa, but that results in a very skewed image of the Netherlands and the startup scene in particular.

(For example, on the website you refer to, there seems to be only one Eindhoven area job and that's for front-end development to boot. Apparently, this website does not give a good representation of start-up jobs in the Netherlands, but focuses on Randstad webdevelopment jobs instead.)

But given that one of the possible answers (the right one) did not depend on that assumption, and in fact the git of the puzzle is that you shouldn't depend on it, the puzzle is fair.
You just transformed the puzzle from "annoying" to "can teach a worthwhile lesson" for me.

I'm not hostile to the concept, of intermittent fasting (IF), quite the opposite, but I don't think there is much useful information (as the public) we can get from this paper. Granted, I've only skimmed, but there are problems. The paper isn't peer-reviewed and the author indicates he doesn't feel inclined to attempt to get the paper reviewed/published. Red flag.

But that doesn't matter anyway because he reaches only weak conclusions, indicating the data in humans is murky. The author clearly believes IF is beneficial anyway and writes as if he is an advocate for it in the intro at the top of the web page, before the paper appears. Even more damning, portions of the paper itself read like they were written by an advocate. He just couldn't help himself. His job there is to attempt to be neutral and discover and summarize what the data shows (with conclusions) for his systematic review.

However, this paper can serves as a handy compilation of references on the subject which could help other researchers. Given the author's advocacy of the subject, if used as such care should be taken to ensure the references are thorough and nothing is omitted.

I wasn't trying to say the situations are similar. What I was suggesting is that the two examples give fascinating case studies into how differing approaches cause braoder social and financial effects. Both men strike me as realtively knowledgeable in financial matters and both come from the left side of politics in constrast to the usual 'economically strong' parties, so I'd be interested in listening to them discuss these topics.

I've no doubt that the Greek government was trammeled in ways that the AU government was not. We were in a comparitively very healthy position with a significants surplus to draw upon and an ongoing (at the time) resources export boom, among other things.
The problem with Javascript generators, however, is that you're not allowed to call other functions from them, which yield. This very much limits the kind of async stuff you can do with them.
I rather often fast for a lot longer than 16h; I think the 'day fast' is a pretty rough deal, as the hunger (ie, the down side of fasting) is strongest on the first day. So really a small fast isnt too interesting, as you get all the disadvantage without much in terms of advantages.

By the second day, you are no longer hungry anyway, so, for me, a 3 day fast is next to ideal. But I can do rather easily 5 days.

I mostly start on the monday morning and finish on friday, or saturday if I feel brave and there's nothing too exciting in the fridge!

As to why do do it? Well I like cooking, and eating, and drinking, and I rather hate counting calories and such, I'm much more of a 'on/off' sort of guy, and I rather like a bit of a challenge. That also helps me control my weight, without having to spend stupid amount of time in the gym.

Also, there /is/ a 'high' to a fast, I feel like on the third and fourth day you feel particularly sharper; it then decline a bit and you can feel a bit woozy. But the high is pretty cool...

I agree. In every puzzle there's an element of complexity requiring some lateral thinking, otherwise it wouldn't be puzzling. Playing with the "conventions of the genre", so to say, in order to defy the reader is fair game.
I do mention if you simply increase the length of the formatted string you can do round-trip. It should be noted however (as I do) that the decimal number is still not equivalent to the actual floating point number, only that when converted back it is the same. This point could, in theory, be an issue if your serialized form crosses systems that use different floating point systems.
