Meat has been linked with colorectal, prostate and breast cancer not to mention heart disease. So if you take more of an holistic view.. it is quite damaging to yourself.

Here are some actual studies (impact factor between 7.5 to 17) showing the connection between meat and cancer. This was probably part of the 800 studies that the WHO used to make its decision. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub

I understand that you find yourself on the side of smokers, trying to justify your habits. But this new report is still very significant to people having long, energetic and less painful lives.

Sorry, guys, but you are all wrong. WHO is a huge and difficult body to get agreements from. After years and 800 studies, they decided today to label processed meats as carcinogens. Btw, 15% of lifelong smokers get lung cancer whereas 15-19

This whole article is a bunch of BS/broscience that does not consider the many many aspects of increasing processed fats into your diet.

I think in the future, there will be programs to write 50% of the code for you in some way and (if DARPA get this right) you may have code that lasts a lot longer and does not need to be rewritten. So like programmers are making jobs in oth

There was a 10 year study that concluded this year that vitamins pills don't help with cancer and heart disease. The quality of delivery of vitamins to the body is important and based on this study, I don't think soylent is a good

You guys need to learn some accounting. Don't be afraid of book-keeping and be keen on any rule that helps you save on taxes. Overall, a limited company can save you around 20% on taxes over a salaried worker. That alone makes it diff

As a MySQL DBA, I can tell you that neither MySQL nor Postgres are slow. MySQL has less features than Postgres and that was intentional. MySQL was supposed to be a basic feature set that serves 90%-95% of websites and has easy to set up rep

I like SQL. It makes sense to me, personally. Even when I get really unwieldy, I can always take a step back and break it down to parts. If I'm allowed to use temp tables, I can do almost anything in it and usually a lot faster than de

Maybe this can relate to the other story in HN about building boring systems that just work... If you are in-charge of keeping the app running, maybe you wont want to mess around with cutting-edge technologies.
