It seems very different and critically important. Would we have a current obesity epidemic without "optimized flavor and marketing strategies"? Because if we would not, then that i…

I am aware of this, I am more trying to get those that really believe it is as simple as calories in calories out to break free from that Plato-ey over-simplified explanation.

I agree, however for some reason calories in calories out is generally unquestioned among people I know personally.

With this in mind, is the real cause "calories in, calories out" or "optimized flavor and marketing strategies"?

Food design does seem like a higher potential explanation than many others offered.

If healthy home cooked meals are better, why is that? This is a non-answer. It must be something about the ingredients (invalidating calorie theory) or it must be lower calorie (in…

The orthodox reason for why people are overweight is calories in, calories out. Does it matter if those calories are a prepackaged cake or candy? In the end it is just calories. Wo…

This just begs the next "why". Why are people eating more now? Such a significant behavior change across a large population is not well explained by "we just did". I'm not sure fas…

Makes sense, thanks for the good reply.

Does absolute power consumption matter or would it not be better to focus on per-core power consumption? Eg running 6 32-core CPUs seems unlikely to be better than 1 192-core.

What's really exciting is that this suit is the type of thing that will only make the situation worse for smaller apps. More and more rules have been working so well for the Play S…

I'm referring to companies financial statements where these numbers are reported. It doesn't mean the cash comp isn't high or that a specific job offer won't have a lot of cash com…

Roblox is dilution-maxxing, stock based comp is up 10x since EOY 2020 whereas revenue is only up 3x. SBC is also ~ 1/3 of revenue. It's pretty cool to get shareholders to pay your …

Fair enough! Tho I am curious what you mean by "especially for the money"?

The type of consumer buying an ASUS device is the type of consumer that thinks the spec sheet tells them how good something is. Eg, faster CPU and more RAM, or higher screen refres…

Cloudflare is cash-flow positive because a big chunk of employee compensation is paid thru the issuance of new shares (eg constantly raising more money and diluting existing owners…

Does the solution involve using Cloudflare workers? Because, as I said, I'm sure it is possible but maybe we've gone off the deep end a bit. Just how crazy of a configuration do yo…

I believe Cloudflare (and many other cos like it) have never produced operating income. They are growing and obviously important and potentially very profitable in the future, but …

B2 can be great but it is missing a lot of features when compared to other object stores so it isn't a good solution for every scenario. As an example I investigated, to put a cust…

The whole point of IA is cheaper storage that is infrequently accessed, and there is a price to accessing it. If you need / want frequent access just use the regular storage class.…

Probably needs one or two more layers just to be sure.

Seems like an empty threat. The obviously best position for gov is to always have the "you all messed up don't make us come regulate" line available to them. It sounds good. The mo…
