The parent said exercise though right, not weight loss? Exercise can/does lead to weight loss but it's certainly not the only benefit and might not even be the most important one.

Sure, and most small organic molecules are an order of magnitude smaller than that definition.

I didn't go and look up the others but this argument by similarity, at least when applied to asbestos says the exact opposite to the claim you're trying to make. It's generally considered that industry/government was awa

100%, I had to pop into the HN comments after opening it because I wasn't sure which it was! Though perhaps there is something we're missing that the target audience would more quickly identify it as real.

Don't be embarrassed, its what computers are for! I've done the same thing recently too. It honestly feels like a better use of a high-core desktop CPU than have it sit idle 99% of the time.

The essence of this is true of basically every PhD in a quantitative field. I think its one of the things that makes people walk away after starting.

Lots of chatter here about alternatives that all seem to miss the point that the alternatives suffer from the same filesystem performance issues that this release claims to improve. Might not be an issue for you but if you've ever had

Probably yes, but only if it was happening a lot; I don’t know what the cross-over point would be though that you’re better off just keeping the drives spinning...

I was first put onto this book by my PhD supervisor while writing up my dissertation. Revolutionised the way I wrote English for the better.

More to the point then, is there anything that sits between the high quality generalist journals and generalist scientific magazines (Nat Geo. and the like)? I can and do read Nature and Science, but outside of my PhD field I find it pretty

Just to quip on your first point, we did a decent job (especially during the first and second world wars) of aligning ourselves, though the purchase of bonds and the like, on spending money on "guns".
