In a “traditional” weight loss strategy, you paired calorie deficit with an increase in physical activity (cardio, resistance training, etc). This increased physical activity helped protect you from muscle loss (your body tended to recognize that muscle was important so it burned fat at a higher rate)
With ozempic, people can lose weight without changing their sedentary lifestyle. Since your muscles are not needed, your body is free to grab energy from wherever it can. In some studies, almost half of weight loss can come from lean tissue.
Is it better to for an obese person to lose weight vs not lose weight? Absolutely. But it would be even better if they also changed their lifestyle to protect their muscle mass.
Netflix does offer to give servers to ISPs to put in their datacenters. So if your ISP is seeing congestion on the IX links, it is entirely possible that Netflix still works fine (because the traffic doesn’t leave the ISP and is therefore not hitting the congestion). But that is not a “fast lane”
It is clear that Apple considers iMessage a significant network effect and is not interested in having feature parity between iOS and non-iOS
In some ways, this is proof that Gemini isn't cheating... It is just doing typical LLM hallucination
Most brokerages (even Robinhood) allow you to trade after-hours. But the volume is lower so it can be more volatile.
500k-700k is a little more realistic. 1500 employees across all domains (engineering, marketing, product management, customer service, etc) isn’t a huge number
But it will not appear if the app opens the webpage as its own View (instead of opening Safari). In that case, there is no button and the user has to hunt for how to go back. And the user has no way of knowing whether an app will open Safari or will open the webpage itself.
iOS requires users to build muscle memory in learning how to use each app. Android requires users to maintain a back stack in their head to remember what came before. Switching between the two is very jarring.
However, if your room has even a little light in it, the settings would make the TV too dark.
It will also disable any effects the TV has that aren't "map video to screen 1:1" such as motion interpolation, upscaling algorithms, etc
IMO, they are a fun community programming puzzle tradition. I would still turn to leetcode for interview practice. But AoC is awesome for me when I don't want to grind leetcode for some interview I don't want right now.
Today, if an iPhone user sends a message to an Android user, that message is sent via SMS. If Google wanted, it could already scrape the message. What would change if the protocol was open and the message was sent to the Android device using iMessage?
There is no expectation for Apple to give Google read/write access to the iMessage database (not that it exists, but still). What is the downside of users being able to interoperate and use the protocol?
Pilots are one of the few professions that are covered under the Railway Labor Act, so federal mediators have lots of power to reach an agreement between airlines and pilots
My gut says that the Fed interest rates and natural cooling of the demand curve post-Covid-lockdown is more impactful. But I would love to learn more.
The interest rate pause was not declared unconstitutional today - and it will continue until the loans are scheduled to be started again in the next couple months.

Musk cannot just wake up one morning, decide to not buy Twitter, and pay the breakup fee. He has already agreed to buy Twitter and cannot back out.
That is why the bot issue is so important. If Musk can prove that Twitter made false claims to the SEC, he is allowed to get out of the deal. But if not, he must buy Twitter
For example, if you run out of data for a month, many carriers will continue giving you access to the internet APN, but then block access to "external" websites. This is so you can easily open your browser and "top up" on data to continue using your device.
Or the usage of HTTP (not HTTPS) was relatively common back when I was in the space (7-10 years ago). There wasn't a need to use HTTP because the carrier was in full control of the pipe between the device and the server. Adding in a VPN that somehow tries to intercept that traffic (that was supposed to exist entirely within the telecom) is not going to work.
I would be willing to pay $10 if the solution wasn't so hacky... Maintaining a system solely to run unsupported software (in a way that I would have to imagine is against ToS somewhere) is just too risky to handle a critical piece of my communication. I can't drop a message - especially if my excuse for dropping messages is "the laptop in the corner of my closet had to install a security update and restarted on me"
RCS is its own technology. If everyone in a chat uses RCS, SMS and MMS are not used at all. It is like iMessage - but based on an open standard
Android phones do support RCS. Apple will not implement it. Apple will only support the bare minimum of SMS/MMS and then people wonder why it doesn't work well.
Carriers have worked to improve messaging. And Apple won't work with them, preferring to make "green bubble" a horrible experience. People should be outraged that Apple is able to e2e encrypt their chats but refuses to implement the standards.
The only reason I consider getting an iPhone is for iMessage. I would gladly pay a monthly fee so I could use the phone I want AND communicate freely with the people in my social circles.
> But they can't then use that type of "hiding" to get away with claiming it was done for a University research project as that's even more unethical than what they are doing now.
If you "play the game", an error budget causes your releases to become riskier and riskier as the budget grows. This is optimal because a riskier release allows you to accelerate changes, allowing you to hit other OKR.
The issue is that this will eventually cause very risky releases (where you would slow down otherwise). In a sense, an error budget does eventually become "amount of intentionally deployed errors" because you are incentivized to increase risk until an error does appear.
Assuming you are correct, is there a way to reset expectations without blowing up the department? Not that we shouldn't be striving to be ethical, but it is clear that Google doesn't like the direction the team is heading.
If Google is truly interested in the thorny issues of making AI as ethical as possible, can it do so without tackling the (seemingly insurmountable) issue of social ethics? And if not, do we just throw in the towel and cross our fingers that AI doesn't hurt us too much?
Maybe "resignation" doesn't meet your criteria. But "firing" implied that the employee wanted to keep their job but the company ended it.
Would you accept "mutual termination" ?
