Vic 20’s crappy cassette tapes are probably why I became a network admin instead of a programmer: 9 times out of 10 the cassettes never actaully saved my hours long programming sessions.


It’s half the mass ;)


It's confusing. I can as easily conclude it's either 1/2 or 1/3 of the mass.


Or we could have finally managed negative mass.


The simplest and most accurate statement is that it’s an emergent result of the principles of capitalism combined with human nature and not a plot to keep us down.


It's both.


Science doesn’t reinvent itself every couple of years either: new discoveries build upon a foundation of old discoveries. Software is more like the fashion industry.


I gave myself the title “IT Janitor” because for years all I did was clean up other people’s $4!7. I automated everything I touched, and told people it was so I would have more time to surf the Internet. Now I’m over 50, in the Innovation group, and dreading ever having to find a new job. But I’m having fun: blockchain, robotics, mobile app dev, and now NLP.


Prove him wrong, doing it this way only proves that people are irrational in the face of criticism


“Dr Watson’s statements are reprehensible, unsupported by science, and in no way represent the views of CSHL, its trustees, faculty, staff, or students. The laboratory condemns the misuse of science to justify prejudice.”

Basically, the whole faculty thinks he's wrong, and Watson has presented no evidence for his claims. He's not even an expert on the subject matter.


Well he falsified his data, so he kind of proved himself wrong


"the abominable snow man is real"

Prove me wrong.


Yeah, it allows for unlocking without inserting a key or pressing a button.


T2 is related to glucose ingestion(sugar, carbs) NOT fat. Glucose spikes your insulin, and the continued, extreme spiking of insulin is what causes T2.


You dont get keto acidosis by eating low carb, that is misinformation.


Source? From my read it looks like you absolutely can.

That's a case study of a single patient. Main takeaway:

>Benign dietary ketosis resulting from restricting carbohydrates could, theoretically, cause ketoacidosis in persons with a predisposition to the condition.


That sounds very much like what they were saying. “Theoretically” is closer to “can” than it is to “cannot”.


Also, I said that it’s a risk to be managed. People are acting like I said that it’s a certainty and that not eating sugar constantly as a diabetic will kill you instantly or something.


I made it very clear that it’s high ketones while diabetic that causes it. If you’d like to correct that in a more constructive way, that would be helpful.


Type 1, maybe. Type 2, not at all. In fact, a ketogenic diet will reduce or eliminate the symptoms of T2.


Actually, 25g total (including fiber carbs) would be low carb.
