I genuinely fail to understand the advantages of any sort of Lisp. Contrary to what gigantic brain lisp devs might think, it's syntactical annoyingness is far too much of a barrier to overcome.

As a native speaker, sacrifice is a verb.

qwsxyh··on The Fasting Cure Is No Fad
Fasting is anorexia rebranded for tech bros.

Christ, some of these comments are indisguishable from pro-ana forum posts. "I starved myself for 7 days and I can think so clearly!"

qwsxyh··on Kept alive with tubes for nearly 17 years
I would choose the anesthesia, obviously.

Sounds good to me.
qwsxyh··on Suicide Attempters’ Long-Term Survival
A human being with a real "functioning heart" would not stop somebody from trying to kill themselves.
qwsxyh··on Suicide Attempters’ Long-Term Survival
> This is why it's okay to restrain suicidal people against their will

Well, it isn't.

qwsxyh··on Work on production line of Boeing 737 Max ‘not adequately funded’
The free market working at its most efficient.
qwsxyh··on Meal timing strategies appear to lower appetite, improve fat burning
It's because HN users aren't really that intelligent; they just give off that impression instead. We're all mostly normal people here, and act like normal people. This isn't some special club of 1000x geniuses.

qwsxyh··on New York state has banned cat declawing
Here in the UK we don't have this moral panic over outside cats. It seems to be a uniquely New World problem.
qwsxyh··on Why the ‘Weird Internet’ of the GeoCities Era Had to Die
Am I so out of touch?

No, it's everyone else who is wrong.

qwsxyh··on The Loneliness Epidemic
I would legitimately rather kill myself than ever live in a dorm.
qwsxyh··on If You're Poor in America, You Can Be Both Overweight and Hungry
> For me, it's better to eat less overall(not enough calories) or just miss the meal until the next opportunity than eating junk food.

This is called an eating disorder.

qwsxyh··on If You're Poor in America, You Can Be Both Overweight and Hungry
I count my calories on an diet entirely consisting of white bread and it works for me.
qwsxyh··on If You're Poor in America, You Can Be Both Overweight and Hungry
Eat junk -> Feel like crap

Put a bunch of effort into making good food -> Feel like crap

Seems obvious what I pick.

qwsxyh··on If You're Poor in America, You Can Be Both Overweight and Hungry
Not to mention mental health issues can also make "healthy" meals just taste like shit making everything worse and driving people to get more unhealthy food.
qwsxyh··on If You're Poor in America, You Can Be Both Overweight and Hungry
Fuck poor people for wanting to eat things I don't want them to eat. How dare they have even a little bit of luxury.
qwsxyh··on Declined Proposal: A built-in Go error check function, “try”
That statement is still correct even in the context of the stdlib.
qwsxyh··on Amazon workers launch protests on Prime Day
I'm not a complete idiot like you're making me out to be. There is clearly a joking intonation there.
qwsxyh··on Amazon workers launch protests on Prime Day
> Cue Amazon putting in more robots!
qwsxyh··on Amazon workers launch protests on Prime Day
It's happening but that doesn't mean a) we should just bend over and accept being fucked over due to some vague robot threat in the future or b) make jokes about workers having to bend over.
qwsxyh··on After Car2Go eased its background checks, 75 vehicles were stolen in one day
An easier time than before doesn't mean a good time.
qwsxyh··on HyperFoods: Machine intelligent mapping of cancer-beating molecules in foods
It is remarkable how so many tech spaces seem to be positively marketing eating disorders nowadays. Like, seriously, some of the rhetoric here is very similar to stuff I've seen on pro-ana spaces.

Please, it may be physically healthier to fast, but it's a very easy slippery slope into full-on EDs. Eat, but eat less if you want the benefits.
