Mostly it’s an issue of abundance in calories. Historically most people have worked such physical jobs in environments with limited food supply. In that environment it’s way harder to get obese, regardless of genetics or gut biome.

I believe that at current rate your entire company will become irrelevant in 4 years. Your customers will simply use Gemini to build their own software. Better start applying!

If you already know another backend language and framework, all you need to do is tell LLM or some code generator to convert your models between languages. There is very little overhead that way. I greatly prefer Java with Spring Boot for l

Yep, this country is no longer that special by European standards. Childcare is still good, but later education and healthcare are very mediocre. In EU only greeks are less satisfied with the availability of healthcare. Our unemployment rat

Yeah, everything about this administration makes perfect sense if we assume that Trump is a Russian asset. Of course billionaires like Thiel and Musk have their say as well. I wouldn’t be surprised to see America sell weapons to Russia, and

Apart from the form factor, my custom built machine with Unraid pretty much works like what you describe. Soon two years of use without major issues.

What you describe is the very reason I let my children watch moomins. Not everything needs to be bland and boring like today’s children’s shows. World is not like that. Over here im Finland me and every other 90’s kids watched these shows,

Sustainable forestry is possible, and using wood harvested from such forests in buildings is very climate friendly. It’s one of the best ways to capture carbon for a long time. But of course it requires regulation by effective government, w

Russia is the number one war criminal in the world. Of course now that Russia owns American leadership, we can partially blame them for American human rights abuses.

Yep, it’s an interesting social experiment. USA is becoming like Russia, with fake democracy and robber baron oligarchy that does whatever it wants. Many people are going to be OK with it, as long as they think it benefits them personally.

Generic, overhyped AI company with no moat acquires a social media mainly inhabitated by bots. Tesla used to be cool, SpaceX still is. But these two appear worthless to me.

I doubt the billionaire tech bros now controlling the US mind forest fires, and loss of natural habitats. They want the country to collapse, so they can build their own network states. https://youtu.be/5RpPTRcz1no

America should help its poor and underprivileged groups through stuff like progressive taxation, better social service, and extra resources for schools in poor areas. It’s not perfect, but kind of works. It helps people to achieve better ed

Yet people with lower education were (again) more likely to vote for the most radical president in the US history. Social media and its propagandists are the source of modern radicalization, together with failure of neoliberalism to produce

In some countries yes, others not. Nobody got killed to make Nordic countries ”ethnostates”. It’s just that not that many people wanted to live so far north. In fact, in Finland the largest ethnic minority (Swedish) on average do much bette

Previous gen Dell laptops at my workplace had issues with expanding batteries. Newer ones don’t, but are made from really cheap plastic, and have bad battery life. I would definitely avoid their laptops and get Thinkpads instead.

Some people have a family, or otherwise time consuming personal lives, which does limit the ability to learn new things outside of work. I wouldn’t really blame them for not ”bettering themselves” if they don’t get to do that on paid compan

Java still very much rules in enterprise software. At least in my country it’s easily the most employable language simply for that reason.

I agree. In our modern societies we have more means of communication than ever, yet we’re also more lonely than ever before. Urbanization has also disrupted people’s social lives very much. Raising children is hard when your parents live fa

The thing I enjoy about Mate is how long lasting and stable its stimulating effect is. Coffee just gives me a quick spike after which I feel bad. Mate helps me to concentrate on boring stuff for hours.

Exactly. Some scientists are also activists, and that’s okay as long as they approach science as a scientist, with empirical mindset. In social scienses too often the activist mindset is all they have.

More population sure raises the value of land, making housing more expensive which sucks for raising a family. IMO urbanisation and modern tech are a big factor here. If you lived off land in a manner requiring heavy manual labour, then chi

Materially abundant nowadays means cheap felectronics, clothes and low cost flights. However, supporting family was much easier in the 50s because housing was so much cheaper and much better job security with less education. It’s insane wha
