Angus actually didn't have any caloric intake during his fast. Impressive as her hunger strike was, she was force fed, which can't really be considered fasting.

My best guest, and this is pure speculation, is that skipping a meal makes people believe that they can eat whatever they want for the other meal(s) of the day. As such, they eat awful food and never develop good eating habits. I did OMAD

Clever. I could see this being legitimately useful for generating test data.

Yes, we use filtered indexes to mitigate it. It's a lot of additional boilerplate though.

Our current system uses soft deletes, and I wish we had done a "deleted" table. The biggest downside to soft deletes for us is that it ruins the default indexes cause every query has a !IsDeleted where clause added to it.

Is DALL-E noticeably better than Stable Diffusion and other self-hostable options? I don't see why I would even bother going through the sign up process for OpenAI, only to be limited by their filters. Seems like they are late to the

To be fair, I think it's much less likely that some creep is going to try to record an old person and post it on the internet as opposed to an attractive younger person...

Because our society has also agreed that using race as the sole reason to determine an outcome is a bad idea. Hence, the civil rights act which "makes it illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of race". Why should w

I have no familiarity with OCaml at all, so I really don't know what the unit should be here. If it's milliseconds, that's really, really, impressive. If it's seconds though, that seems on par with other languages&#x2F

I had the same experience. It was absolute sorcery the first time I used it. I was able to type without looking and would be confident that the result was correct. Using the Google keyboard now is still pretty good, but I routinely have t

If I can suggest a book: Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport I had a lot of the same feelings you describe here. Reading this and actually making tangible changes to my habits helped me rediscover my love of learning. Ultimately, the soluti

Completely anecdotal: They apparently did this in my area a few years back and they are still spraying in my neighborhood as of last week after detecting mosquitoes carrying diseases. And it could be all in my head, but I swear there are 10

For general queries, I agree. But for any technical query, I find Google to be 10x better. I used bing for about 6 months, but considering most of my searches are technical, I found myself switching to Google > 40% of the time and just

This looks great, do you have a newsletter? I'd love to know when you implement bank syncing. That's the only thing keeping me from signing up right now.

I'd be very interested in seeing this when you are done!

I like the two system approach, that is a good idea. Perhaps it is just a matter of properly ordering the answers, maybe giving community votes precedence over the accepted answer? For example, here is the question I was talking about: htt

I ran into this yesterday. I got an upvote on an answer I posted 7 years ago that was marked accepted. There was a much better answer with 3x the upvotes at the bottom of the list and the OP account was no longer active. Wondering if ther

That is a really annoying issue I have with YouTube. I occasionally watch some of the Joe Rogan podcast videos when he has a guest I'm interested in. I swear, as soon as I watch one JRE video, I am suddenly inundated with suggestions f

I can easily see myself hitting 12+ hours a day. 8 hours every day at work, then an hour of TV, then a few hours on my PC at home doing whatever. Plus, using my phone probably adds up to a decent little chunk. Weekends might drag the averag

This thing is trash. I put "never" on everything and then "a few times a year" on one and I was still "mid" risk at 0.3/6. Putting "once a month or less" on one thing made it "high" at

Seems like a hard problem to legally solve. I can see so many valid use cases for bots to scrape pages. But in all of your examples, I'm inclined to say that it shouldn't be allowed. Maybe it falls into a "fair use" si

Same, I couldn't get used to Firefox, it just felt too slow, even the new version. Brave feels just like Chrome, but with less Google. I love it.
