Fiber is the cause of many of intestinal issues, making constipation and crohn's disease worse.

Red meat also helps people stay at a healthy weight, lower the risk of heart disease (caused by glucose) and some types of cancer (which feed on glucose). What do fiber and red meat have in common? They are not sugar. You could replace fiber with other indigestible material such as sand, the effect would not be much different.

There never will be a 1 for 1 replacement because the two systems have different approaches. Why would you want a direct replacement when you could have something better?

GPOs are a windows thing and don't apply to other systems. The generic equivalent is configuration management, for which there are many solutions. Linux updates are much easier than windows updates, and many linux systems now use immutable and atomic updates by default, which further reduces risk.

For directory, openLDAP just does LDAP. DNS is done with Kea or Unbound.

Fundamentally the issue is a lack of familiarity. The only way to become familiar with a system is... to use it.

Chrootkit is the sort of thing you run on your affected drive from a system you believe isn't affected.

EDR is pretty much just logging and remote access. The rest is fluff. Yes, you need a "host agent" for operational and regulatory reasons, but there's more flexibility than you think in what you can deploy for that. And none of the vendors use the best technical solution.

It's true the desktop security model sucks, but there's progress in improving it. Wayland, containerization, immutability.

Flicking that switch would be pretty much a one time deal. Not likely.

What would happen instead, and has happened in the past, is Microsoft (or juniper, etc) leaving a remote vulnerability unpatched while certain groups use that exploit. It's much more deniable. So deniable, that it's impossible to say for certain that it was intentional.

It's more practical to audit FOSS systems for bugs than a Microsoft solution, and the tools for doing so are open source and getting even better every day. Like you said, sharing the burden helps with cost: It also helps with the trust issue. Going one step further, formally verified software solutions are possible (and exist!). Good luck getting that from Microsoft, they ship a calculator that needs updates and internet access to run.

What would make it illegal to do this? Generally anything which hasn't been invented yet is legal, it's rare (but not impossible) for something to be banned before it exists.

Yup, if it works in your testing, why bother changing it?

Part of the issue with merit pay is if it's tied to simple metrics like grades, those metrics will get inflated without raising the things those metrics were meant to measure.

Isn't a conspiracist someone who colludes with others to commit a crime, often in secret?

Snowpiercer was pretty good.

Am I the only one who read this and thought, "doesn't everyone self host a NAT gateway?"

Mine's in the living room, it says TP Link.

More seriously, NAT is fun and all but it can introduce unexpected behaviors that wouldn't exist in a firewall that doesn't do translation. Less is more.

What's impractical about everyone having a domain name? It surely isn't due to lack of domain names, because foo.bar.baz.bim.bim.bap.com is a valid domain name.

It is true that full data sovereignty isn't something most people are interested in, but this is more about a cooperative model for data ownership and access. Having your data identifier be JackDaniels@yahoo.com isn't particularly different from it being jackdaniels.is.technically.bourbon.com. In both cases another organization owns some of the path to your identifier and could potentially lock you out of it. In both cases, verizon is near the top of that list (.com).

As far as the domain name system being centralized, I'm not sure I agree. DNS is like a feudal system with hundreds of kings (top level domains) who all work together with one pope (ICANN), and various lords and ladies occupying positions under those kings. If ICANN goes completely bonkers the kings can get a new pope, some of them are literally sovereign because they are nation states. Just for fun, some of those states are ruled by literal kings, too. There are experiments to run a TLD by Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), but I think for the most part nobody really cares because the current system happens to work pretty OK. If you have an idea for a more decentralized way to organize a namespace that doesn't involve your grandmother typing in a massive UUID or onion address, and doesn't result in someone being able to domain squat literally everything; I would love to hear about it.

Do you seriously believe that hasn't been genericized? Computer people talk about SSH all the time and usually mean openSSH. When they're not talking about openSSH the next most likely is dropbear on embedded hardware. Nobody ever talks about SSH Communications Security except in the context of the trademark registered in the previous century. It's cool that they were the first to develop the protocol, but they're not relevant today and have no right to harass newer projects that people actually use.

>1 chargeback we received last month

>We refunded all of them

Was it a chargeback or a refund? It can't be both.

I'd assume one chargeback isn't enough to get your account banned though. There may be other factors, like one of your company officers sharing a name with a person the USA doesn't like.

I agree with the sentiment that you should have multiple payment processors set up in parallel so you don't lose any business due to this issue happening. Until you become big enough that they can't afford to do without your business, you'll be at risk of arbitrary suspension.

If the VM has:

-Access to your private data

-Exposure to untrusted content

-The ability to externally communicate

Then it's not "locked down"

Depending on your security requirements you should have only one or two of those capabilities per VM

Potatoes are not particularly high on the satiety index (~33%). Brocolli and spinach are much higher at near 100%

https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/marty.kendall7139/viz...

I've been reading that what gives potatoes a satiety boost is that they contain proteinase inhibitors. These limit your appetite by disrupting your digestion. Maybe they are more effective as a weight loss food than the raw nutrition numbers would suggest, but for an athlete that wants to cut I don't think slowing your ability to digest amino acids is a good idea.

Where does the idea that potatoes are "almost-complete" in terms of nutrition come from? If you look up nutrition facts for potatoes:

-1 potato contains 110 calories

-Lets say our hypothetical adult will eat 10 potatoes to hit 2200 calories

-The only nutrients which potatoes provide more than 10% recommended daily value are Iron, vitamins C and B6. The iron is not heme iron and therefore may actually be worth less, but we'll say it's enough just for the sake of argument. Potassium and phosphorous are close at 9% and 8%, but everything else is lower.

-The fat content is negligible, which is a problem because your brain is made out of fat

-20 grams of incomplete protein means your body can't repair muscle or bone adequately.

-No cholesterol, which also has negative outcomes

This is a high calorie starvation diet.

Doesn't everyone have floaters? I thought some people just don't notice them, the brain filters it out as useless data. Learning how to ignore them is probably more valuable than the surgery.

Stablecoins are crypto. In any case, people trade things away because they have a particular need for something else. Holding currency won't fly you to Guam, but being willing to spend some will.

However, I don't see buying flights with crypto to be a real value add for most people. Usually crypto has a privacy advantage over card payments, but in this case it doesn't because your airfare info is a lot easier to look up in a sketchy database than your credit card statements are. Maybe this is convenient for the small amount of wealthy people who live internationally and keep a lot of money outside of banks. If the business isn't expensive to run, then perhaps it'll still make decent money.

Not only that, but interviewers will only value one particular vibecoding framework with a silly name, and will expect 10 years of experience in it.

How often do cellphone companies ban drug dealers?

There are laws in place to regulate this behavior, but the government has chosen to protect mastercard from enforcement in this instance. That's the smoking gun.

Mastercard could simply refuse service for those games in particular instead of demanding (through proxies) that the games be banned from Steam. There's a clear antitrust violation.

Bitcoin is so much faster than a credit card transaction that it's not even close. A lightning transaction is near instant, regular bitcoin transfers take in the order of 10 minutes. Credit card transactions take weeks before you get the money, and after that the money can be yoinked back for a multitude of reasons beyond your control as a merchant. The fees are often lower, too. Bitcoiners are for some reason opposed to solving that last issue (no privacy) despite the technology existing in monero. NIH syndrome, I guess.

The real unsolved issue for cryptocurrency is between chair and keyboard. People make mistakes, people are afraid of being robbed. Your average person does not want to be their own bank. You can have a bank or payment processor manage your money for you, but then we're back to the regulated world where Visa and Mastercard can determine what games you're allowed to buy.

I suspect it is just political pettiness. None of their complaints about brave seem to hold water. Why should Lobsters be bothered by brave ads? That only happens if the user tells their user agent (brave browser) to show extra ads, in order to earn a worthless cryptocurrency. If the user wants to see extra ads or otherwise modify their browsing experience it isn't a concern of the website. Lobsters also doesn't seem to value the brave token, so why is it a problem if they can't access less than $100 in brave token?

Brave leaking DNS to cloudflare in tor browsing, compared to google Chrome leaking every request to google at all times? Why not block Chrome?

Unlikely, unless by "gathering" you mean scavenging kills and eating carrion. Developing the large fatty brain without a herbivorous digestive system suggests that our ancestors ate dead animals. The modern human digestive system is more similar to a wolf's than a chimp's.

There's also not much evidence that there were enough human available calories present year round to support a nomadic vegetarian population. Yes, apples existed, but the current evidence suggests humans only started eating lots of them after we wiped out the mastadon.

TFA is literally about a wormwood related drug being used to treat babies in africa.

It's a traditional medicine for malaria, and the reason china wasn't exporting it was due to the military importance of anti-malaria medicine. This was a thing before Bill Gates was rich or powerful. Since then, I'm not really aware of any suppression of the drug. The only anti-malaria treatment which has been suppressed by US interests is the vaccine, because they didn't believe it was profitable. Now that it is profitable, they're going forward with it.

Now that the white wormwood based treatment is known worldwide, there are questions about whether it should be kept in reserve like quinine. I'm not sure if things have changed, but I recall an approach is to give Artemisinin alongside another treatment, to prevent malaria from adapting. In africa, people will commonly listen to the doctor's instruction to take the whole course of medicine and will ignore it and just take half. They give the other half to a relative. This causes treatment resistant malaria to develop.

I believe you're confusing knowledge and intelligence. This is effectively like saying intelligence is circumstantial because Mike Tyson could punch through the mathematician's head in the boxing ring. You're comparing an ability (intelligence) to a skill (jungle stuff).

To accurately test the jungle guy's intelligence you'd need to devise a test that doesn't require reading nor writing (skills he hasn't yet developed). The point is to test how well his brain works, not what he's learned. With physical testing there are similar situations, where two people can have the same strength and endurance but one of them can achieve more with it due to certain skills like dance or being Mike Tyson.

Underwater welder, though being replaced by drone operator, is still a trade despite the health risks. Do you think nobody on this whole planet would take a space datacenter job on a 3 month rotation?

I agree that it may be best to avoid needing the space and facilities for a human being in the satellite. Fire and forget. Launch it further into space instead of back to earth for a decommission. People can salvage the materials later.

Smells like baby duck syndrome. You're used to what you're used to, and you'll never get used to anything else if you don't switch.

I do see what people are talking about in reference to the voice channels though, even though I can't stand them.

Fair enough, you got me there.

Bitcoin ATMs are supposed to be more of a currency exchange business, but I can see how a lot of people would treat them as a money transmitter business.

Bitcoin and similar were created in part as a workaround for these regulations, it appealed to people who wanted control of their own money. People who wanted an end to chargeback fraud, and credit card fraud. I wonder which sort of system has the lowest total fraud costs, including costs of preventative and compliance measures. Do you think we have enough data to make that sort of estimation?

It's ultimately a have your cake or eat it scenario. Regulated bitcoin will look a lot like the system that unregulated bitcoin was meant to be an alternative to.
