I think about it like this - seed oils are in nearly all processed foods. Read the labels of anything in your house that's in a bag, or will not expire in the next week. 95% chance…

if the seed oils in Cheetos are not the problem, what is it? the flour?

anecdote for anyone else reading about Covid related tinnitus - I've had hearing damage related tinnitus for a decade. Got Covid in April '22 which caused my existing tinnitus to 2…

where did you get testing done?

it's well known and not debatable that Cinnabon is fire

this is more plausible to me

>The one service token and three accounts were not rotated because mistakenly it was believed they were unused. This odd to me - unused credentials should probably be deleted, not …

congrats! Really crisp idea, excited to try this out

didn't see any mention of caching in the docs. This tends to be pretty important for fast build/CI at many different key points of a given workflow (dependency cache, build cache, …

we have no theories of intelligence. We're like people in the 1500s trying to figure out why and how people get sick, with no concept of bacteria, germs, transmission, etc

using it for an internal Golinks service

dang. Only thing I've found so far is a `mysqldump --no-data` and then a restore from dump. Not fast at all. Maybe you could pre-provision a few thousand DBs this way in parallel a…

pgtestdb looks great. Looks like it leverages Postgres template DBs. We use MySQL more often than Postgres; I may take a stab at creating something similar for MySQL. Nicely done!

what is the neurovascular conflict?

that's pretty fundamentally different, no? One requires you to build a distributed system with >1 components leveraging GCP tasks APIs. The second is just a library do some book ke…

buy reserved ec2 or rds capacity

I agree; there many odd writing choices. For example, this is a very confusing end to the first sentence: > to pay unshared attention to our mission ...unshared attention?

go deep enough down the rabbithole of a hobby/topic, and you find the passionate crazies

it's so fascinating when health/fitness discussions crop up on HN. absolutely not gatekeeping, but just observing that compared to the technical topics, there is sooo much more dis…

idk man, go look at the fasting glucose of anyone on keto and it's probably going to be below 90. Not sure where this claim is coming from. There's hundreds of thousands of people …

it doesn't take a state actor to MITM this. It takes a Wifi Pineapple advertising a fake AP and tired devs in Blue Bottle smashing `ssh-keygen -R github.com` without verifying the …

You could literally go grab a Wifi Pineapple, sit in a Starbucks in SF, and MITM Github for anyone waking up and blindly running `ssh-keygen -R github.com`. Very opportune time for…
