Fair. But, according to the linked article and the study, most people disagree and would rather use the same amount of enriched salt than less in total. I find the retention rate especially noteworthy.

This may also be a European issue. I live in Germany, we have dozens of brands of flavored salt for specific applications (e.g. scrambled eggs, chips or even feta cheese), most containing iodine, but outside of specialized stores none conta

From what I heard, hyperkalemia is much less of an issue than high unregulated sodium intake for a large majority of the population. The highlighted issue of toxicity in high doses applies to many household foods in general, and I wouldn&#x

I always wondered why a mix of sodium and potassium salts aren't the norm. The slightly higher cost and somewhat less "salty" taste are really insignificant compared to the huge health benefits. And yet, I still can't bu

Where would you expect this event to be used? I don't think most web applications somewhat dependent on time should directly have to listen and respond to these events for the amount of people affected by it just doesn't justify t

What do you mean by "price"? The language and its interpreter are free, but so are most languages from its time, so what are you referring to exactly?

Exactly, if they are used enough that someone declared the types in a @types subrepo. Sometimes these are excellent. However, I sometimes work with code in fairly niche domains written in pure JS that can pretty much return anything depend

You can't really accidentally cause memory leaks without being made aware that your code may leak by the compiler and/or docs. The "easiest" way to do it accidentally would be an Rc loop, but that is harder to write than

Complete by-default null safety is a big point, extension functions are just nice, smart casts, proper data classes and operator overloading, and simple expressive functional stuff like range syntax and reified generic types for inline func

I completely agree, if it is really 100% Rust, or some great high-level bindings. Else it just becomes C++ with nicer syntax imo, and if my code isn't anything too fancy I could just write it in Python which likely has even more ergo

By default, strictness is opt-in with TypeScript, and many JS APIs, especially older ones, don't even have types yet. Having a type system from the start that cannot be disabled and that forces you to always think of types instead of a

Linear programming has become flexible enough to allow way more constraints. Take a thousand variables for each food type, and then not only impose constraints for each nutrient, but also for cookability, for example not allowing flour to b

Highly unlikely. The parsers are written in efficient languages, and nobody is setting <font> color attributes in a loop. Also, this is not how it is done today, and old websites are usually a lot faster than modern ones. I would even

I once visited a lab near Berlin where they told me that cell-free synthesis is basically like cell-based synthesis, just that they kill the cells first and use what's inside. The major benefit, I was told, was that you don't have

Quanta Magazine tries to make these topics accessible for people with low knowledge regarding them, thus mentioning the Riemann hypothesis, although adequate and needed for, say, a lecture on the topic, would not really help this goal.

UFCS is great. I really wish more languages would support something similar, although both pipe operators (thing |> function1 |> function2) or Rust's proposal for thing.(function) seem to also satisfy the syntactic ideal.

Banning cooking oils doesn't seem like a good solution at all. While they are of course some of the densest types of food in terms of caloric intake, they are used in a large majority of recipes to cook at home. The problem is ultra-pr
