Not really, healthy person can easily handle that amount of sugar. Has plenty of fiber to balance.

8 to 10 oranges per day being healthy or not is largely dependent what else you eat. Biggest issue there is likely teeth decay due to acidity.

Great drugs. Have dropped 10+kg couple of times and tried a few more with low carb. Dropped 20+kg with Ozempic and it boosted me to exercise. Its wonderful that even a string of bad nights don't push me to overeat: even if I eat more during the day it tapers of in the evening whereas before ut would just continue.

Looks like the links in the posts no longer work, but all the posts are readable and he goes through the work they did and why. They did a lot of usability testing for the ribbon. But anyways I have no horse in this race other than liking ribbon over 16x16 icons and menus, so no point in hashing this over.

Not really, it is much more discoverable for most people. If interested, MS UI lead has a blog about lot of the reasons for ribbon and on the research backing it https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/jensenh

Ribbon was better for most people who didn't have all the shortcuts in muscle memory. It is much more discoverable.

My recollection is completely different, software was really slow on contemporary PCs in the 90s. Spinning disks, single core cpus, lot more swapping due to memory being so much more expensive.

If you look at back pieces of old classic furniture made during hand powered tools era, its mostly very roughly finished. Professionals rarely had time to spend dicking around with stuff that isn't visible.

If only the speed was the big issue, but mostly it is the mass. Even with all the reckless cyclists there are very little fatalities where cyclist runs over pedestrian. Ultimately separating all groups would be the best, but heavy consequences for the heaviest road users is ultimately the solution.

So essentially what you are saying that because we couldn't catch the smart criminals who use e2e encrypted services we shouldn't catch the dumb ones either?

I find it pretty ridiculous to assume that any dev would comment on the inner workings of their employers software in any way beyond what is publicly available anyway. I certainly wouldn't.

See, I feel like that's almost the exact opposite unless you assume Apple and its internal legal department is made up of the biggest idiots on the planet. If they were intending on just infringing this valid patent and trying to get away with it, then they've literally handed the world a paper trail that makes them look as bad as possible without a literal email being published in the newspaper from Tim Cook saying "Yea, just violate the patent".

They don't really need to be idiots. They just need to trust that there is a reasonable chance that Masimo won't do anything about it and if they do, there is reasonable chance that Apple wins in court and if they don't there might be appeals and if not they might have come up with better non-infringing tech and if not then they can come to license agreement with Masimo. With that train of thought I think its pretty reasonable that Apple acted the way they acted.

Not really good if AI can run around it but to normal people it exists as before.

This. No matter how intelligent you are, you can not make connections between things you don't know about. If you externalise all knowledge you are ultimately just extension of that knowledge source.

I guess you use what you are familiar with, but using react for doc site instead of using some off the shelf static site generator/cms with caching seems like wasted effort. More fun from dev point of view with react no doubt.

Originally in the W. Royce article from the 70s it was a strawman put up by Royce. He then went on to define much more reasonable iterative model.

Unfortunately the strawman was what started getting traction.

Yes, it is pretty weird to think that VB.Net flavor was fairly used in web dev even as late as 2006.

This would basically guarantee that regulators would inevitably separate either Youtube or Chrome from Google.

Other than the fact it seems to be an industry standard so it's good for your job prospects, what are the benefits to Terraform over CloudFormation/CDK or whatever the equivalent is for your particular cloud provider?

For me the killer feature is that both plan and apply show the actual diff of changes vs running infrastructure. It makes understanding effects of changes much easier.

At least in Finland this is common knowledge and pretty much every house has rhubarb growing in the yard somewhere.

When your employer is contracting people out against hourly rate you generally have to be accurate with the hours. When customers pay by the hour I find it quite reasonable. Also in some countries keeping track of hours worked is required by law for the employees benefit.

Largely depends on the market, where I am used iPhone 11 without major flaws costs little over 300 euros.

Because settings related stuff is needed so rarely.

Wsl really did make Windows better developer platform than Mac. I'd still prefer straight up Linux, but that is not possible in all organizations.

Yeah, this is very unfortunate development. It is really tough to find good mobile first games that aren't infested with grind or micro transactions.

Docker has much better IO perf with lot of small files on WSL vs Mac. Currently doing Rails development and had to revert to running local straight up on Mac vs Docker because on Docker it was extremely slow. This of course means more testing on prod like cloud envs so it is really a load of crap.

Back when I read the usability literature on icons about 10 years ago, the consensus was pretty much that text was pretty much the best, icon and text was worse and only icons was really bad.

Anything that looks like an ad will be largely ignored. This has been understood for over 20 years now. However, flashy looking boxes have always been the first idea that pops into anyones head, so here we are.

Self checkout at as implemented in local shops has odd value proposition for the shopper. Basically it is more hassle and marginally faster for the benefit of allowing the shop owner to fire some people. Compare this to handling bank transfer at your own home computer or mobile phone versus going to the bank during business hours.

Indeed, the collective bargaining power of employees is less than it used to be. This will likely become more and more an issue in the current century as the benefits of automation will line mostly the pockets of the owning class. The current concept of fairness of pay and trust in market forces is evident in these comments as well. I think at some point there needs to be some adjustment there. Maybe that will happen before the middle class disappears completely.
