I'm really not clear on what you're advocating here. Going out in public without a mask increases the risk of transmitting the virus to other people, possibly killing them. In this case one person's freedoms impinge on anothe

So can people out in public without masks on be charged with any of these things?

by cageface 6y ago
What if their stupid choices kill other people too?

White rice maybe. Eat whole carbs like most humans have for most of human history and you will be fine.

This can be measured scientifically: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_index Note that insulin level and blood sugar level are two independent things.

You can look it up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_index Beef is above even white pasta. Your blood glucose and insulin levels are two different things. The healthiest populations in the world eat a lot of (unte

Protein spikes your insulin just as much as carbs do. A steak will raise your insulin levels more than a plate of spaghetti. Whole carbs with the fiber intact can be quite satiating. Most of the problems people attribute to carbs really onl

Big websites have been built in all kinds of technologies including PHP and Cold Fusion. That's not the question. The question is how do the utility and component based approaches compare and having worked extensively in both I'll

I’ve built big sites this way too and it’s a small improvement over pure CSS methods but still much less productive and maintainable than the utility approach.

We often talk about the rule of three in software development. The idea is that you don’t start looking for abstractions until you have at least three instances where that abstraction will be useful. The problem with component based or sema

Unlike other methods I’ve seen Tailwind based projects result in very small CSS payloads that tend to grow asymptotically over time instead of getting bigger and more bloated over time as people keep adding new “semantic” classes.

I’ve done plenty of big sites with the component based approach and they are anything but maintainable.

Ive been doing CSS in every flavor imaginable for twenty years now. Until Tailwind came along it was always my least favorite part of coding for the web. Tailwind eliminates all that accidental coupling that eventually turns every CSS codeb

Large projects with many contributors is exactly where Tailwind shines. It prevents that ever growing pile of intractable mud that every CSS codebase tends to turn into over time.

That's fair but that does mean that I wouldn't consider it unless I really needed that kind of control. That's a niche few devs need to worry about.

It looks like Zig requires manual memory magagement, right? That seems like a pretty big downside compared to GC or the Rust approach.

Unfortunately I’m getting the same Postgres crashes running the ARM version. It’s the only real downside of using this machine for Rails dev at this point.

Plant based diets can be unhealthy if you eat a lot of processed foods. If you stick to unprocessed, whole plant foods you will lose weight.

You might have a disrupted gut microbiome. People that report the kind of results you describe often have gut flora that are way out of whack. You might want to look into a SIBO test because in the long run a diet very high in meat is also

Fat has 9 calories per gram. Carbohydrates and protein have 4. The problem is that we strip all the fiber away from the carbs we eat and this causes all kind of problems including making them less satiating. Getting fat eating whole carbs i

When it was sugar all along? Er no, people were told to stop eating fat but of course they didn't and average calorie intake went up in all categories. Sugar intake in the US peaked years ago but Americans are fatter than ever. Chick

At this point I think the only sane way to interact with these companies is to make sure that your life can go on if they decide to lock down your account. Never be too dependent on any single company or account. Which is why as Apple is tr

hitting $1 trillion in market capitalization in February 2021 Multiplying the price of 1 BTC by the number of BTC to get a "market cap" is pretty wishful thinking. Significant selling would tank the price.

This is one problem that just goes away in lisp since data and code are in exactly the same syntax.

Yes quite sure thanks. Crypto will have to grow all these other encumberances before it can become something ordinary people can use instead of a normal bank.

I took AP computer science in 1987. It taught me almost everything I needed to know as a foundation to keep coding up to today.
