"Exercise is of interest in treatment of sarcopenia; evidence indicates increased ability and capacity of skeletal muscle to synthesize proteins in response to short-term resistance exercise.[18] A 2009 Cochrane review also found evidence that in older adults progressive resistance training can improve physical performance (gait speed) and muscular strength,[19] which are two key components of sarcopenia."

I'd argue that's slightly evened out by prices that don't fluctuate as much by location. ex: In my midwest city I own a 3br 1500 sqft house that cost 190k and my wife and I gross over 160k. In an SV or Seattle type area we could be double the income and 10x or more for same house so it seems like we're getting a sweet deal right? But plane tickets, automobiles, many smaller consumables, anything you can buy on amazon, higher priced hobby items (phones, road bike, etc), are relatively inelastic to location. So we pay a larger share of our income than if we lived in a high-income area. To a certain extent, fuel as well. I regularly travel to chicago, seattle, and intermittently to LA area and gas prices are only marginally higher than in my low tax red state. While not so static, the cost is a bit baked in there as it's a larger proportion of my income to fuel my car.

That said, I'd have to put real numbers into this to see if my counter argument holds. You may be right that we underpay at a macro level and have some arbitrage. Your message just seemed to suggest it was obvious which I don't think is the case.

A better question is what ROI does generic non-tech enterprise company X get from standing up a huge data science team for simple data management problems.

That's the only explanation that makes sense.

here is some study into these various ideas. google your heart out but this was the first i found.

When "smart" parents remove their kids from the public school, the public school is worse off from having lost the student and parent would could have helped provide a better environment.

I can't tell if you actually want answers but boeing has a fairly successful satellite deployment piece of the company.

reddit post with main study, also comments have HN posts about it and good critiques. interesting stuff.

I've seen the cardio U curve study before too but do not have it saved like I did the strength one.

Title should be: Being ‘Dumb’ in Computer Science

So I self-learned CS, my degrees were in applied math, and it was similar in the math world. Although more like:

"everyone feels that they're the dumb one in a room full of other dumb ones... "

But where I studied, we did receive that sort of lecture early on. That "a wall" as you've described it is normal, get used to it.

It's served me well, being comfortable with "not knowing" something. You could argue that it's something every student of ANY subject should be told but I guess many subjects are easy enough that simply working at X% effort is enough to never get stumped.

This is what I thought as well. The author's perceptions of reality seem a bit "off" and even naive in some cases.

I don't think that's an accurate comparison. There's not really anyone in the healthcare industry that would argue against vaccines but there are plenty professionals with qualification (mds, pharmacists, etc) that are against the broad use of statins.

Background:

I'm an applied math guy that works in cv, image processing, and anywhere that stats & optimization can be used. Work has recently led to learning more distributed stuff, albeit simply wiring up zeroMQ with c++ or python and getting the concurrent dances right.

Is it safe to say that Microcorruption is sort of a pre-req to this? Should I muck around in there first for a bit or sign right up for starfighter? Thanks.
