> Almost all "evidence" that meat is harmful comes from the type of poorly conducted
In the last 30 years there have been studies claiming that with very very good methodology, you could cite some of the stuff from the '80s and you wouldn't be incorrect.
A controlled environment of people not changing their diet and lifestyle in a 20 year time span.
There's plenty of studies like that.
There are quality studies where p-values tell that their sample size isn't large enough, but when you do a meta-analysis of studies with same methodology you get a relevantly sized sample.
I do guess you are talking about those "Phd nutrition guys" and yes, they are full of bullshit and aren't scientists, because if you are talking about the real science, your comment is full of disinformation.
This is completely false. Scientific studies, controlled, on nutrition and health are going back at least 30 years, and in these 30 years you can find a huge amount of quality research and quality data.
Problem is that no one looks at meta-analyses, no one reports about it.
WHO has reports that are sometimes half-assed and clearly * put large food industry * neutral.
Just take the newest biggest report on eating processed meat being equivalent to 3-5 cigarettes per day (cancer up by 18%). They did a meta-analysis on 800 articles, and in those articles and conclusions authors clearly state that meat can be substituted by alternatives that do not cause cancer, but WHO decided to skip that and mention that there are health benefits to eating meat (high iron which is not that high compared to plant sources, B12 which of course, cannot be found anywhere except animals and fortified foods).
They do the same thing with milk, supplements etc.
You could have easily added a BSD derivative license where one would be required to cite your paper or just your authorship if they've used the software.
I've noticed this being a good way to maximize credit.
Nope, it's just bad software engineers. Africa has those pretty very battery friendly "smart phones" and they do everything that yours does, probably without the fancy games.
I've been tweaking my Android tablet's code (10" screen), profiling, setting up all of the possible GPU optimizations (whole UI is whenever possible displayed using it) and this is the result.
“The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outward from there.”
“The real cycle you're working on is a cycle called yourself.”
“Like those in the valley behind us, most people stand in sight of the spiritual mountains all their lives and never enter them, being content to listen to others who have been there and thus avoid the hardships.”
These talk a little bit about self-improvement, or that knowledge is not understanding. Telling someone that new relationships aren't going to help, that acquiring new stuff won't help, is just giving them your personal knowledge/wisdom but you can't give them understanding.
Stack is absolutely wonderful. stack setup command works wonders, building is effortless, moving to new library versions is as easy as ever and ever since I've started using it I've been writing more and more code in Haskell.
Tooling is absolutely great, Atom plugins are very fine, really, it's very enjoyable and it all happened in a single year.
That doesn't seem to be a problem for the competition. Prices are the problem, and Uber is trying really hard to lower the prices and profit, that's why the algorithm IS most important.
I really do not understand why almost everyone thinks that "network effect" is the best thing Uber has, when it obviously isn't.
What this means is that Uber doesn't have an efficient enough algorithm for ride sharing and they currently are giving us a solution that will optimize the routes upfront.
This will give them enough competitive data to figure out the live on-line algorithm. And of course, lowering the prices still, but it won't work for those of us who want the routes now, not planned upfront.
Way to go free datasets.
Although it's nice to know that researchers at Uber still haven't figured it out, makes the competition a bit happier.
It's quite funny how a company raises so much money, and then, after you have it you go solve the hard problems, or at least that's how Uber works.
I love how Facebook HR rejected one of my acquaintances and then after he asked "Why?", the recruiter sent an email that was something along these lines: "Ok, may I schedule a technical interview in a week?".
Eventually he ended up being an engineer there.
My experience and rejection also indicated there's something arbitrary random going on in the interview process. Once a recruiter from Google commented my grades with a serious attidute, saying I should keep them as high (I was still a student) and I immediately realised that grades weren't even checked because my grades were horrible (GPA<3, ridiculous bible theology social classes ruined it for me) and if they cared I should get them higher.
Consciousness and understanding are human created symbolism. Talking about it seriously is a waste of time.
I could be an empty shell imitating a human perfectly, all other humans would buy my lack of consciousness, and nothing would be different, from their perspective I exist, from mine, I don't have mine.
How does one know that I really understand something? Maybe I can answer all the questions to convince them?
