20 years of checkins on what people eat, has anyone gotten the PDF and seen how they actually do this follow up? Most food diaries are basically bullshit, so I'm curious what they had to do with their data to make it actually useful.

Maybe I'm missing your point. It seems you're attempting to answer the wrong question: is this task accurate, given all the changes that have happened? This is irrelevant for large scale estimation. The question for scheduling pre

What happens when you complete your work before you know what you need to do next? If this never happens, then you have some invisible queue, as you do have things to do next. As far as your example, that's a great example of a task th

This is great for a simple monte carlo simulation! Choose a finished tasks time randomly, once per remaining task in the queue, and add this up to be a single estimate. Do this 1000 times or so and get an estimated distribution of completio

This traditionally has not been log level's use case. syslog() and setlogmask() being the obvious examples. Many (if not all) companies I have worked out filtered out everything DEBUG at compile time to improve performance in productio

The same can be said of C or JavaScript or any other language that is successful. Saying they have flaws doesn't somehow undo their success. Programming languages are a human phenomenon, as is their success. They are popular in spite o

ARM itself is proprietary, including the ISA and several micro-architectures that implement the ISA. I don't think it's shocking that folks who licensed a proprietary ISA, and then paid a stiff license fee to implement their own m

That.. that sounds like a project :) It doesn't need to be "separate", but it does seem that many of these systems could use the same load balancer design.

This is one of the major problems with distributed / federated systems. The name itself (twitter, youtube, etc) is meaningful to users. These "default instances" need ways to distribute the compute & network load while al

Yes, thank you for correcting my error - I should have said the mode rather than the median. Right, but the "hero" as discussed by most folks is only a problem if the team expects hiring more software engineers should speed up exe

Yes I was shocked with the changes! I didn't find one redeeming quality, and I'm one of ~those~ people who hate using icons, enjoying words better for interfaces that change so frequently.

See my comment about Neil Fiore's book above, I strongly suggest you read the book. Secondly - I think the unschedule would help a lot. Having a 10 minute ping that says "Hey! Feel bad and stop being lazy!" sounds incredibly

Neil Fiore's book "The Now Habit" had so many tips that helped me when I was procrastinating in school. The "unschedule" in particular has so many genius pieces: - Schedule your fun FIRST, so you know you'll su

That paper makes such a huge, and largely incorrect assumption in the abstract. I've never seen anyone make this argument. The old parable about bugs, that it's 10x harder to fix a bug than it is to write the bug, shows us that th

They literally say in the quote your reference that's not the case though, that it's fickle - not a resource you can "deplete".

No, not close enough at all! They show that willpower comes and goes for many reasons, but it is not a limited resource. You can't "use it up" in the morning, and thinking that way will lead you to actually having less willpo

#1 has been debunked[0], in 2016 of all times. I wonder how many more years we'll have to go before people stop saying willpower is a finite resource. [0]: https://elemental.medium.com/dont-worry-you-can-t-deplete-yo...
