I cut back my sugar intake for half a year (bread, chocolate, sodas, etc.) and felt worse, my digestion becoming more erratic and irregular. Right now, I am enjoying a couple of pieces of delicious chocolate while laughing about the people

My entire body starts to shiver uncontrollably when I don't eat for a day (the energy throughput of my body is crazy throughout a workday), I can't believe it's healthy and productive not to eat for 3 days in a row. I'd

I'm using group policy extensively to disable things I don't need. If they remove this from Windows Pro, that will be the straw that breaks the camel's back. At least for me.

Something that appears to be missing: Disable Windows Defender either way. It's a piece of garbage that is running by default, does massive amounts of disk I/O for no reason, automatically deletes false positives like community pa

Yeah, you're right. If the student was the customer, everyone would get perfect grades and uni would be an amusement park. The student should not be considered the customer. That reminds me of a first year lecture of discrete mathemati

A third of college students who earn a four-year degree graduate with no debt at all. Zero. Frankly, that is extremely alarming. Only a third? It's strange how people can look at the same numbers and draw completely different conclus

Am I mistaken or did the article not answer the question at all? It just describes some processes, risks and examples. Most of them common knowledge of the practical man in the 21st century.

Your point being? I am opposed to that too. I just think it should be people's own decision to medicate themselves however they see fit. At least with the salt you can buy whatever salt you please,with or without iodine. The water supp

Ludicrous. Let people decide that for themselves. I can't believe anyone is seriously suggesting force medicating us because it seems to be correlated (note, correlation, not necessarily causation) with a drop of suicide, homicide an

Aah, the good old romanticising of depression makes it to the top of HN again. You gotta make up reasons why depression is valuable, otherwise it would be pointless to suffer, wouldn't it?

Well, according to the article, that must be a good thing because you are now more creative.

Let's be fair here: The stay campain was lying just as much, if not more, as the leave one. Don't let your political opinion seep into your judgement of who lied and who didn't, or you too are post-fact.

Coal is one of the nastiest, polluting, disgusting ways to produce electricity. Often, it's even the case that burning coal leaves a radioactive slag (because of materials that came with the coal while mining) so that a coal powerplant

There are many ways to create adders [0]. And other circuits for that matter. If you are willing to expend more transistors, you can decrease the propagation delay [1], that is, the delay until all outputs have settled to a stable value. Ba

The usage of single throw statement in the source code will result in more than 120KB of extra binary code in the final binary image. Just try it yourself with your compiler and see the difference in size of the produced binary images. Wh

I've been keeping a dream log for some time but it takes quite a bit of time and energy - often 30-60 minutes after getting up. These days, I only write down the most interesting dreams. So yes, writing things down every day has a real

That's your view on the point of math. I would be perfectly content to have a long, computer generated proof of P ?= NP. Of course I prefer beauty and elegance in proofs, but I think leveraging the computer as a tool to prove things fo

State, this is none of your business! Focus on real issues! What are we, infants who cannot keep track of our data usage? What are the cell phone carriers, imbeciles who cannot maintain infrastructure at high loads? This is an example of ho

Oh, wow, I need livestreamer in my life. I like watching twitch but the CPU usage of this simple video stream is absolutely insane, such that my CPU fan has to spin faster for no reason other than inefficient flash plugins.

If you're wiling to say something like that loud enough that others can hear you, then it's not really a joke anymore. You sure have a strange concept of joke. I define a joke by its contents, not the number of people who hear i

I wonder what security threat or investigation could be so large as to warrant stifling the communication of large parts of the population. A classic case of a state gone haywire and not serving its people anymore.

What a shame. Erdogan is cementing his position and thus totalitarianism and islamofascism. Driving out the intellectuals and freethinkers is a significant step. Every month he and people like him are in office will take Turkey years to rec
