- literalAardvarkNot even, it's opt-in.
- "water has run out" is a binary event
- UPS aren't really cheaper.
Sure, up front you're paying very little for that box that can run your PC for an hour.
But over 2-4 years you'll have to replace that UPS after it fails catastrophically in really dumb ways, and that's if you're lucky and it doesn't also burn your house down, whereas a proper storage system will last for a long, long time with more capability.
In my business I've never had a deskside UPS live longer than that.
And yes, we don't buy the ultra expensive ones. That's true.
- That paper unequivocally states in the beginning that the authors aren't trying to contradict that food processing affects health outcomes, they're just dissatisfied with the low quality of the classification system.
So there's no debate that ultra processed foods affect health, there's only debate on whether the category itself is good enough. And if you go deeper into the subject, it becomes pretty obvious that the Nova system is a pretty bad model. But it's a simple model that can be easily communicated to Doomscroll Sally. The better models we have haven't caught on anywhere near as well.
"The participants in this debate agree that food processing vitally affects human health, and that the extent of food processing significantly affects diet quality and health outcomes. They disagree on the significance of ultra-processing, as defined within the Nova food classification system."
- Well, no, they won't be able to forage enough if it's a small pasture. They do need extra feed.
I'm guessing that the more you do to get them forage the better the meat and eggs will be, for instance larger pasture and making sure your other animals leave plenty of dung around.
- Here, this is a solid intro you can thread out of at your leisure. There's really no controversy around this at a scientific level, only on social media:
- The numbers are what the numbers are, not what you want them to be.
Minimizing cow farts is simply a better focus.
- Not necessarily.
It might be some Big Meat conspiracy to combat these upstarts, but there's also reasonable data indicating that less processing results in better health outcomes.
- That's... Not too bad, actually. My grandmothers used to have maybe 8 chickens and 12 ducks or so. They were very low maintenance, and had very minimal pastures, with the only difficult to reproduce part of the process being that the houses were in fairly wild surroundings.
They would probably need more pasture in monoculture hellholes that have cornfields for 100km in each direction.
- That's a false equivalence and you know it.
The fact that you can somewhat improve your muscles doesn't change that some people need to put much less effort in or can recover fast enough to be able to put more effort in.
Same for brains. Except we don't know a way to improve a healthy brain's performance (*in a general way, ergo a way that transfers to other tasks).
- That one's a bit optimistic for the FDA.
But it nailed fusion and Gary Marcus lesssgoo
- That'd be very amusing, since I'm not white. But no, it just happens to be fairly well documented that some people run faster hardware than others for a wide variety of nature and nurture reasons.
They also run better or worse neural networks on that hardware, which can be educated, but there's no replacement for displacement.
- Over 10 years he did even worse than Cathie Wood.
He's ahead of Buffett but WB has massive AUM and MB should be running circles around him.
So yeah... he had one movie worthy trade, but that doesn't make it a sound strategy.
- I answered your question clearly and in good faith.
The rest of your diatribe is US styled epistemic theatre I don't feel the need to engage with, so I didn't.
What exactly did your posts contribute?
- There's plenty of evidence for those who want to learn instead of split hairs.
I'd start with a search on "general intelligence factor".
- Education helps channel cognitive ability into useful pathways, but you either have something to channel or don't.
Though I'd go with innate over genetic: leaves more room for nurture and epigenetics and doesn't make one sound like a white supremacist.
- The space jam website used HTML tables for formatting and split images in each cell.
CSS didn't exist.
- Cows are very safe for their herders, assuming there are no bulls (and there never are, those require containment). They can get defensive or spooked and then they're very numerous very large animals with hooves and horns, but their herders won't be the target of their aggression even if the herders are very mean. At least not intentionally.
Pigs are extremely dangerous to children in all cases (they will eat body parts with no hesitation and no effort, like carrots).
Goats are incredibly awesome and accept you as part of their pack and defend you from predators. They can also be assholes but playfully. As with cows, female only herds, as males are dangerous.
I've never herded sharks so I'll go with your opinion on those.
- I haven't been in the weeds in a few months, but last time I was there we did have a lot of traffic from bots that didn't care about robots. Bytedance is one that comes to mind.
- Pigs are extremely dangerous for kids, but herding cows and goats is 100% something kids did. Source: I did it.
The village kids would get up, take the cows out to the road where the other cows also came, then together, a big group of kids and cows would head to a pasture and spend most of their day watching cows, playing games and messing about.
It was great.
Realistically the cows and goats took more care of the kids than the other way around.
