bimboler38··on How “let it fail” leads to simpler code
>Plus assert everything all the time.

This is where static checking comes in. Static tests should fail if it's assumed (and not asserted) that a key exists.

From my experience, much of this comes down to the design of the system: was some state modified prior to an error occurring? If so, can it easily be rolled back? If not, why not?

bimboler38··on Crohn’s Disease: Is the Cold Chain Hypothesis Still Hot?
The worst "attack" I've ever had was with spaghetti squash. I got the usual: bloating and diarrhea but on a scale I had never experienced before. I felt extremely tired void of any appetite for a couple days after. Really wonder what in it did it for me. Maybe it was a coincidence, or an allergy. Haven't figured it out to this day. Other than that, any enriched flour pretty consistently gives me light bloating.

Unrelated but I found this paragraph in the article quite... weird. Natural juices and vitamins?

>One woman, Sandy Funk, had begun having blackouts at the age of 37, having developed a brain tumor. She got herself onto a diet of natural juices and vitamins, and was able to live for another 18 years, but only after they had removed two thirds of her tumor via a surgery.

This is exactly what I thought. Maybe it's because it's popular or maybe it's because the docs are notoriously bad. Or both.
