What is "processed foods"? Isn't bread a heavily processed food? Is somehow making it at home magically healthier than it being made in a factory? What about whole wheat bread from a factory vs white bread at home? Which one is healthier?

Or are you trying to say that bread is somehow unhealthy? Even though it is staple eaten by literally everyone across the world in someway, shape or form.

Terms like this destroy the credibility of "food research" and I find it hard to trust any dietary guidance. Specially after the whole fat & sugar debacle

Many Dell PCs have a “SERVICE MODE” jumper that also disables IME

The age verification maybe a good idea if it is used to create a segregated place for kids. But instead of having filters & being able to scan messages, I think it'd be better to not have private messaging on those platforms. This will allow other users to report suspicious behavior.

It is a very common practice for these companies to rotate competent people between multiple projects. Friend used to work as a senior exec for CG in India

There is nothing wrong with baremetal 2003 style PHP. It is NOT a compiled language. Every line of code in PHP translates to one or more lines of Machine code.

As such a framework in PHP is counter intuitive and will only slow things down more.

All we need is WFH. That alone will cut down a major portion of the traffic.

USB-C is a mess. Sometimes everything works as intended, but most of the time it doesn’t. Sometimes power wont work, sometimes its the display, other times the USB.

Only after replugging a few times will it work.

Not to mention the security issues of ThunderClap

I will cancel my sub and shift to KeePass before installing an Electron Version of 1Password

Not only is Electron heavy, but also inherits all the security vulnerabilities of Chromium.

This is compounded further by the fact that Electron uses its own bundled version of Chromium and so needs to be separately updated, before the app is compiled by the devs.

So many app developers are not even aware of this and so will not bother updating the SDK.

In-App browsers have always been a security nightmare. Similar issues exist with Electron apps as well.

But developers continue to use them as HTML + CSS + JS is the easiest way to develop a graphical dynamic UI, for a newbie. Many schools & colleges even teach basic HTML, CSS & JS, so the barrier to entry is very low.

I am not sure what a good solution here would be, but maybe we could start by limiting access. Or another way could be to have some way to convert the rendered UI to compiled binary code

PHP has its uses. Want a simple web app. Great.

But speed is inversely proportional to the linecount.

At some point it is better to use a compiled language like Go.

Ask them, in person. Many small businesses have unarticulated needs, that they have trouble finding people for.

But due to resource constraints those things just get pushed. Specially IT things like backups

The issue with Google is SEO optimized spam sites beat out real content. Until we get rid of web advertising, it'll continue to be this way.

Spam site operators have a huge incentive to get users to click on their links & provide them with ad-revenue

For Google, they could make things so much better by down-ranking sites that show ads

Has anyone else been noticing an increasing trend of people dooming & glooming over low population? Just seems like fear mongering to me. Specially with all the automation today

Citadel’s loss is our gain, so…… yes?

Coz like 99% of all USB devices have a USB-A port

So Coinbase is gonna be bankrupt pretty soon i guess

For me it was pack of sleep. Sleep debt accumulates just like financial debt.

Slept like crazy for 2-3 months. 12-14hrs daily. Much better now.

This happens all over the world. Poor people are treated worse than the rich treat their animals

Curated sure.

Tailored to individual tastes - absolutely not

Kinda like a newspaper

I would suggest watching Death of Stalin (2018) to understand why Russia bad

This is exactly what happens when algorithms tailor what people see on their newsfeed. They will push narratives.

One of the main reasons I prefer Reddit is the existence of r/All. Provides a very balanced view

Have you heard of this guy called Snowden? Or maybe Aaron Swartz. Govts have been harassing them too. One guy even took his life

Another thing to turn off in FireFox. Already have WebRTC, WebGL, WASM, ServiceWorkers etc disabled. Most sites are so much faster without all this junk

Gotta justify the Bilions of $$$ spent on the new campus, while trying to prevent a CMBS collapse

WASM is not going to happen. Stop pushing it. Also Google Docs, Microsoft and several others have been doing this via JS, since ages.

I have it disabled along with WebGL, WebRTC, etc and refuse to use a browser that has WASM.

Fine. Lets abolish the govt secrets act & all the secret courts and what not too.

No secrets for us, none for the govt too

Telegram is just spyware. Whatsapp is better. Signal is the best

This is why I don't work for large companies
