The longevity diet identifies six steps designed to increase lifespan by promoting lean body mass and healthy blood sugar levels, switching off the body's central pro-ageing system and ramping up an anti-ageing process called autophagy:
1. Limit calorie intake to maintain a body mass index of 22 to 23 for men and 21 to 22 for women.
2. Eat a diet high in wholegrains, legumes and nuts. Stop eating meat to restrict intake of the amino acid methionine, but include some fish.
3. Aim to get between 45 and 60 per cent of calories from non-refined complex carbohydrates, 10 to 15 per cent from plant-based proteins and 25 to 35 per cent from plant-based fats.
4. Do a limited daily fast, eating no calories from around 3 hours before bedtime and for the next 11 to 12 hours.
5. Every two to three months, undertake five days of a fasting-mimicking diet.
6. Alcohol is allowed in small amounts, but no more than 5 units a week.
It supports the model of having many atomic, reviewable commits on a topic branch. Where it seems to exceed Kiln is in the rebase/fixup workflow. You can push fixup commits in response to issues left by a reviewer. A fixup commit will automatically mark an issue it addresses as resolved when you push based on the lines it changes (the fixup must also be reviewed). You can later rebase the branch to integrate the fixups. It's pretty clever, and the way fixups are shown lets you see at a glance how the branch has evolved.
As a reviewer, and as someone who often digs through five year old commits, I want feature branches to follow the most linear path possible. Approaches that are started and abandoned, and commits made on top of a branch in response to review feedback are noise. A well-crafted branch often has little to do with what happened during development.
Linux. Right.
I really don't see the logic in withholding from paying members of either platform.
After futzing for hours with XSLT and writing scripts to submit content via the REST API, I found out about FTS4 in SQLite, and was impressed by it's relative simplicity. I had something working in under an hour in Python.
