The following sources provide some compelling arguments for switching to intermittent fasting for many major systemic health benefits.

These videos by the channel "What I've Learned" are great:

- Fasting vs. Eating Less: What's the Difference? [1]

- Longevity & Why I now eat One Meal a Day [2]

The channel [3] also has many other videos on the topic of nutrition, with similar emphasis.

Also see the excellent and readable book "The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting" by Dr Jason Fung and Jimmy Moore [4].

Locus | Full Time | ONSITE, VISA (Bangalore, India) | https://locus.sh/ | careers@locus.sh

Locus is Series-A funded, and is hiring Engineers and Data Scientists. At Locus we have an ambitious goal of Scheduling & Tracking the World transport movement. We are aware of how audacious the goal is, but we have made our initial strong footholds and have the path to move forward. Founded by a team of ex-AWS engineers, comprising of graduates from premier Indian Tech/Science Institutes (IIT/BITS-Pilani/TIFR), Locus is funded & mentored by the most respected investors and ex-entrepreneurs and have product validation with actual paying customers.

Engineers: We have always maintained a small, but high-caliber engineering team, and we are now looking to make a couple of additions to the same. We are hiring for mobile, backend & front-end. We are tech stack agnostic, and currently using Java, AngularJS and React. We would prefer to have a look at your GitHub repo or a mobile app that you have built, over your academic/educational qualification. We are a founding team of engineers, and understand that good engineering is part science part art, we would like to provide you the tools for the science and the time for the art. We are expanding the team to build the next version of our true multi-tenant platform with a few thousand events happening per second.

Data Scientists: We wish to push to edge of what is possible, and advance the field of routing problems itself. If Travelling thief, Knapsack, Capacity planning and other optimisation problem excite you, we are looking for you. We are team of PhD scientists and engineers with background in stats, working on building faster & more scalable implementation of NP-hard problems, or even a combination of a few NP-Hard problems.

While we have pizza, beer, whisky, drones, oculus rifts, raspberry PIs on the house, the biggest perk we provide you is a remarkable team. We would love to spend our most productive years, around people with great intellect and unbridled enthusiasm. In the spirit of keeping you at your productive best, we give you free fully furnished housing with internet, food & laundry taken care of, and your choice of tech gear.

Yes, mid-level/senior engineers are welcome!

I'm just a geek at this place who hangs out at HN. The folks over at careers@locus.sh would do a better job with questions about compensation. I do know that the payscale (salary, perks, ESOPs) here is pretty good by Indian standards, given that we have Series-A funding, and that compensation is often kept on low priority during hiring decisions.

TL;DR (to the best of my understanding) :

- Research supported by govt. funds will be required to be made open access, or to be submitted to some public repository.

- Research can be made open access by publishing in an open access journal, or by paying an open access fee to a subscription journal. The government will _not_ fund the fee.

- The public repository can be one run by the researcher's institution. If such a repository is not available, then there will be one run by the government as well.

- Comments/questions are being invited here:

- The following are very approachable as well:

I'm subscribed to ~200 youtube channels, and I highly recommend veritasium, Brady Haran's network, CGP Grey and minutephyics that others have already mentioned. Here are some other channels that don't seem to have been mentioned so far:

---------------------------

TommyEdisonXP - A jovial and friendly blind guy, who talks about, and answers questions about, how it is to be blind:

https://www.youtube.com/user/TommyEdisonXP

Arvind Gupta - He makes simple toys out of cheap materials, and explains the physics behind the toys. He does this full time, and works to popularize science at a premier Astrophysics and Astronomy research institute in India.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT7EcU7rC44DiS3RkfZzZMg

Grand Illusions - Like Arvind Gupta, this guy has collected toys and curiosities from around the world, and has dedicated a channel to document them:

https://www.youtube.com/user/henders007

Backyard Brains - They perform simple and interesting experiments on nervous systems of organisms:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCICLIvkj29GG63NpA3K2Elw

Bite Sci-zed - A brilliant science channel run by self-confessed science nerd, Alex Dainis:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzl8GEjZbjgtVj0ppupdBbg

smalin / Music Animation Machine - Brilliant, brilliant visualizations of western classical music pieces, that help you understand the structure of the music much better if you're a beginner:

http://www.youtube.com/user/smalin

http://www.musanim.com/

For example, see the 2nd movement from Beethoven's 9th symphony: http://www.youtube.com/user/smalin

Talking Animals - Human voices dubbed on viewer-submitted videos of pets. Funnier than you might expect!

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCreVub8zOW6R2zg15FfBq4A

---------------------------

I haven't sampled the following channels very well, but they seem promising.

---------------------------

Backstage Science: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP16wb-IThCVvM8D-Xx8HXA

It's Okay to be Smart: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH4BNI0-FOK2dMXoFtViWHw

Household Hacker: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI4I6ldZ0jWe7vXpUVeVcpg

The Slo Mo Guys - As seen on TV: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUK0HBIBWgM2c4vsPhkYY4w

---------------------------

Youtube "Leanback" for discovering channels and videos. Slick interface, but doesn't seem to surface quality content. Seems to just prioritize trending items.
