Reduce or if possible (hard) eliminate sugar consumption.

There’s a lot of information out there about how many products that you wouldn’t even imagine contain sugar (or some derívate). There’s no need for this.

I have not been able to eliminate this from my diet completely, but being aware of it had allow me to reduce significantly its consumption and make better choices when picking what to eat.

Benefits are plenty, from healthy weight loss and a sense of “soberness” that is worth the effort. I’m sure there are many other positive and well documented effects of this

Woodworking, sketch up, basic electronics and home renovation.

A little bit of everything and trying to put them together in different projects.

I think the best you can do in is to talk directly with your boss and express your concerns.

You seem to already have delivered value to them, so you are in a good position to tell them what you would like to happen or how you feel about it.

If they are a good manager, you’ll get a good response and things will improve. If they are not, you wouldn’t want to work for them for much longer I guess…

I did the same weeks ago already, for similar reasons.

They piloted this change in my home country and there are families that live in different countries…

This is what I did:

1. Set up a target (lose/gain/keep weight, etc)

2. Learned basics about macros, calories and my daily caloric intake

3. Picked up a diet or macro distribution. For example 45% carbs, 35% protein, 20% fat.

4. Used an app (tried many, ended up using Eat This Much) to figure out a meal plan. Basically created 3 meals and used the app to tune the macros to fit #3

5. Make it as simple as possible to do. Easy to prepare meals (salads, veggie medleys, chicken, etc). Buy things for a fee days and pre cut everything so it’s easy to put together

It took me a while to read a bit about it but now it’s really easy to do and adjust as I go.

I think the issue here is that sanctions require usually time to really take effect. The government is already installed by the time they come. The dictators and their cronies are shielded and live lo comfortably.

The population is either brainwashed or brutally repressed when it complains (particularly eliminating leaders).

It’s hard to make a case for sanctions as the solution as there are plenty of counter examples: Cuba has been heavily sanctioned for over half a century and little has changed no matter how dire the situation gets.

I wish they worked for sure, because what other resources you have against a nuclear power?

Edit to add: also, sanctions have exceptions (usually to shielding the sanctioning countries from suffering consequences, as in this case with Russia and the energy related transactions, with the effect of keep that money flowing for Russia).

And these tyrants workaround the sanctions in many cases with the help of other nations.

I would like to code some Go. It’s been a while since my role now is way too far from the code

So if anyone has an idea that want to develop or a project in Go already let me know.

Didn’t read the article, so if they are claiming 1Gbps or something like that then no.

But as an engineering manager who travels to Costa Rica often to work for weeks from there (from all over the country) I can tell you that I rarely have connectivity issues.

In Costa Rica and other Latin American countries at least we called it, colloquially, “pulga”

I think a good progression for people that cannot do it properly right away is to have something steady in front of you that you can hold with both (or one) arms and allows you to keep the position for longer periods, until your joints, muscles and tendons start adapting.

This is the way I’ve seen different people with different limitations continually make progress until they can do it properly.

I mostly read in English, unless I go to a website from my home country… Which will render in Spanish, ignoring my browser configuration :)

I think this company is onto something related with what you are looking for:

They had a post here a few months ago. I entered the early access but have yet to use the device and app so I cannot review them

I’m currently building a service and I’m using casbin for authorization. So far so good, but my requirements at the moment are fairly simple. This will change in the future and it’s one of the reasons I picked it: it’s easy to evolve the permissions layer without changing almost any code.

In terms of my experience so far it was a bit tricky at first but once I grasped the concept it became easy to integrate.

Most of the blogs with examples I found were in Chinese and the documentation is sometimes confusing to read, so you may need to overcome that part.

A few weeks ago I learned about Oso[1] which looks really nice but I haven’t tried it yet. They publish some nice posts about the subject in their academy[2]

"It’s tricky work. Finding the orcas is the first problem. Getting a tag on a wild orca is the next one. It takes strength and dexterity to extend a 25-foot-long carbon-fiber pole from a bouncing skiff to tap the 2-pound tag onto a swimming killer whale, aiming for the area right below the dorsal fin. So far the team has been able to tag two southern residents, L87 and L88, and nine northern residents."
