That's where the point of failure is. Procrastination through finding the right diet rather than throwing science at it (backed up by our health authority here in the UK). It's easy to keep changing and pretending you're doin

I built my own one too. Then I realised I reinvented server-side includes again. So I just went and used those. Again.

It's not a diet issue. It's a psychological issue. You have to fix both independently. One is not effective without the other.

I know two people who had surgical intervention. It was a way out that they could put money into and make the problem go away. Both are fucking miserable and it ruined their lives. But no one tells those stories.

The diet is working. If you’re cheating then you need to fix you not the diet.

Completely. It’s also about the psychological impact. Building physical strength up through exercise has mental health benefits too which are added to the feedback loop of trying to fix your head, which is the real issue. I can run a 5k now

This took a few months. If you have to cheat to make a life changing health difference then you’ve not solved the problem. You’ve replaced it with another one.

Actually it wasn’t low carb. The entire diet was balanced properly based on what the body required. Aggregate less carbs yes but less of everything and everything in proportion. I found myself regularly having to eat more carbs to make up w

Exercise gives you a calorie deficit. It accelerates the loss.

Oh joy another diet fad. They’re just stupid. Just eat a balanced diet with less calories and do exercise. It works. If it doesn’t it’s because you’re cheating. 231lb to 157lb here this year doing just that. 1600 calorie cap and regular exe

It’s even worse. Systemd, dbus and journald are basically service manager, DCOM and Event Log from windows, but worse! It’s not the wrong type of solution but systemd is somewhat stinky compared to what we could have had.

That’s fairly simple. Regular scenario planning, drills and suitable chaos engineering tooling. Being afraid of failures is a massive sign of problems. I’ve worked in those sorts of places before.

It’s not really because the hardware is quieter, faster and cooler than the old i3 Mac mini I was using. That has a direct benefit to the end user, not just on sheer local grunt. On the dev front it means it gets out of your way and stays o

I have a different perspective. I do all my development remotely if I can now in cloud VMs. I know that doesn’t apply to some classes of development but it’s a hell of a lot less painful isolating it and having snapshots available when inev

I disagree. It’s about mitigating the risk of a single provider’s failure. Single providers go down all the time. We’ve seen it from all three major cloud vendors.
