Yeah. Amazing how people on a forum are offering their opinions on something. Let’s point and laugh at them. /s
I’m more amazed at the toxic (no pun intended) comments in this post. It seems HN isn’t a place to voice health theories.
The highly processed ones that are hydrogenated, such as cottonseed. Trans fat forms from that process.
I think the more worrying thing about vegetable/seed oils is the omega 6. A small amount is not an issue from my understanding. And in fact omega 6 can be healthy for some specific situations. But it’s the fact that these oils are used in just about all processed foods and restaurant cooking to the point where people are consuming more omega 6 than they should be and we’re seeing negative health effects as a result.
I love pompous comments like these. I'm not part of a "nutrition community" and I'm actually pretty open minded to these things. Hence why I asked. But you seem to be unable to have a civil conversation without being an asshole. Congrats.
Let's throw around studies like pokemon cards then. I have a study too: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3955571/
So, trans fats which are a known contributor to heart disease are healthy now?

Plenty of prominent Democrats quotes here that say otherwise.
Yeah those sensible gun laws in Chicago - some of the strictest in the country mind you, seem to be working really well. /s
This is hilarious considering progressives in the 1930s praised Hitler as one of their own. Find a new talking point, 2016 was 6 years ago.
There’s also increased cost on businesses to stay open in high crime areas as crime rises, the insurance rates go up and it costs them more and more to recover from property destruction and theft.
In theory yes, you want a 1:1 partition to consumer ratio, that would give you the most optimal throughput, but it’s okay if you have less consumers than partitions, you’ll just have consumers doing more work.
Keep in mind you shouldn’t really go over 20k partitions in a Kafka cluster (recommended by Confluent), as that’s when things will start to get unstable. 10k is a lot of partitions, we have a hundred topics in our main cluster and only are at 15k partitions total. But if your running a high scale low latency environment then that sounds like what you’d need.
My wife is a UX Researcher and what I see going on in the UI/UX industry through her eyes makes this unsurprising to me. Most of the time her research is completely ignored by developers and PMs, her step in their overall process is just a nuisance to them because it delays them shipping features, or it’s insulting to their ego. Now there’s a trend with developers and UI designers calling themselves “UX engineers” to take control of this process and they do a bad job at actually understanding UX Research and mock up horrible designs because they don’t do studies with participants, and simply think it’s a check list of do’s and don’ts.
The whole UI/UX space seems like a mess to me and needs a reboot.
Agreed. I’ve been running Kafka clusters at a few companies now, one that was at a massive Fortune 500 and Zookeeper was the least of my problems.
I’m still glad to see it go away, one less operational dependency the better.
I have never actually seen SUSE used in the wild (running services in a data center or Cloud), it's always been CentOS / RHEL, or Ubuntu.
SUSE is a great distro though and I'm happy to see this. Does anyone have any anecdata where they've seen it most heavily used?
This is happening in all professions I'd imagine. Everyone is so scared that they are violating some social framework - which is constantly shifting in what is acceptable or not acceptable.
To me I think it really slows down progress we could be making in multiple areas. It's kind of like a mental brake being applied to any freedom of thought. Almost like working in an old fashioned company where there's weeks worth of meetings and bureaucracy in order to get a change deployed to production to make sure everyone is okay with it, even those of whom it doesn't even impact.
... Until they hire you back because entropy exists :P
I'm on the DevOps side as well going through the same transition, k8s also allows insane customization, and I have some colleagues that are delaying our rollout unintentionally so they can play around with developing more tooling for deployments which is really frustrating. The k8s scene seems to be filled with constant scope creep and refactoring to get it just perfect before use. Either way, I agree the benefits far outweigh this annoyance that I've experienced. I'm so excited to work on developing tooling instead with my time.
However, I don't think we're free entirely from managing servers the old way with Chef / Puppet / Ansible, unless you're purely hosted there's still the rule of thumb you shouldn't run services that hold state in k8s. But with persistent vol's I do see that changing, though I'm not sure if everyone agree's that's a good idea.
There is a difference. Fascism is originally defined as national socialism by Mussolini. What Republicans do you see advocating for any such thing? Under actual Fascism, private ownership of businesses was allowed, but the government limited the profits they could make. Point me to where Republicans are trying to limit the amount of profits any company in the US can make.
If the comparison is totalitarian tendencies, you have a lot of effort to go through to frame this as a one sided problem as both sides exhibit such time to time.
The only thing conservatives and Fascists have in common is they are nationalist at this point, that's it. The constant throwing around of the Fascist label upon the right wing in this country is so disconnected from reality, as someone who loves history it makes me cringe to no end.
I find it unfortunate we don't focus more on this problem. Children raised in single parent households are more likely to be on a criminal path and end up in prison. There's also significant mental health issues that arise from it [0]. It seems these days being concerned about the breakdown of the American family resulting in crime and mental health issues and the general lack of traditional family values puts you in the conservative category and then you get knee-jerk hostility.
Unfortunately I feel our society and current pop culture somehow feeds this problem, but I can't pinpoint how. Some say the welfare system doesn't help either [1]. But I'm not certain that's the full answer, and can also feed into yet more political hysteria.

I struggle to see the political claim that these people are being flooded with Trumpers. This event was and has been pretty bipartisan.
From what I’ve seen thus far is the media trying to use the Q / Trumper angle against this community to tarnish its public perception and recent novelty.
I am happy to be proven wrong though, I just don’t see it.
I agree, maintaining two popular distro's is pretty distracting and a potential waste of resources. But CentOS was just RHEL with the branding removed, I'm not sure it was that much of a headache to maintain.
IMO CentOS was kind of a bait to get people into the tent, and then if they needed help once using it across all of their infra they would eventually have to migrate to RHEL w/ enterprise support.
Also what confuses me here, is that they claim CentOS Stream is going to be the cutting-edge distro for RHEL... however Fedora already serves that purpose.
Perfect is completely subjective, which is my entire point. I personally enjoy the quirks of Steve Wozniak.
That's one of the best things about the platform.
I disagree, we're lacking critical thought in many places and very influential people not thinking critically about what they are about to tweet is not helping anyone.
Exactly what I was trying to get at.
This just shows not everyone is perfect, and never will be. Twitter unfortunately makes it simple for people to output their unfiltered thought. I feel like we'd find something uncouth about anyone if we knew all of their unfiltered thoughts.
Physical borders, yes it would be near impossible to conquer us. But our digital borders (social media) are wide open. You use the power of a beast to destroy itself.
Anecdotally, I don’t know anyone in the windows / .NET world that is using chef, or have used it and stuck with it. Most people on that platform seem to gravitate to Chocolatey. That doesn’t mean there aren’t any using Chef primarily but it’s pretty rare it seems.
What is Progress’s track record with open source? Recently a lot of people have had to switch to Cinc if they wanted to continue using Chef without paying an enterprise license.
As one of those people, I just hope they don’t try to close the doors on the Cinc community.
How is reason.com being authoritarian here?
How is antifa intimidating and attacking political dissenters not closer to a truer authoritarian accusation? I’m not sure where the “antifa is not violent” gaslighting is stemming from, but there’s a tremendous amount of YouTube footage that anyone can objectively discern from what a violent group of people looks like. The violence is not just them, it’s also right wing agitators such as patriot prayer and the proud boys. All groups involved are the foot soldiers for the ideology they represent.
You can argue antifa isn’t a mob and are just a small agitator involved in an overwhelming complex culture war, but that doesn’t negate their actions that have been documented.
To me this is a mix of the media no longer being trusted, the protestors wanting to control the narrative that is spread from their actions, and them trying to protect themselves from being filmed and then arrested.
Yeah, typically when I see "slam" or "destroy" in the title like this I know it's not going to meet the expectations of that word.
These words are so overused these days in headlines.
Good to know, thanks.
Sweet, I'll consider that. I just upgraded my gaming desktop to an AMD Ryzen 9. I'm so happy to see AMD making a comeback. If I can get an AMD on the next work machine, even better.
I'm actually considering either going with the T480p or an Asus for my next work laptop (from a 2018 MBP) with Linux on it. I have a T470p though that has a broken motherboard right after the warranty expired. When picking it up to move it around, it shorts out and restarts, apparently this is a known issue with the 470's. But I really fear Lenovo's reliability these days.
Has anyone else had reliability problems with the T series? How reliable have the T480's been?
