Re:Fat shaming linked to greater health risks

This article makes a broad statement which is bad. It loosely links research done that is not about fat shaming and uses fat shaming in its propaganda.
Even if fat shaming makes the fat person less healthy, mayhap the shame will deter the rest of the population from being fat, and therefore have an overall benefit. We can see this in asian countries where being fatty is not advertised like it is in the western world.

How hard is it for the reporter to find out which university did this? By not knowing the school or the people involved, this article seems less trust worthy.

So where do we sign in to validate this works?
Purely for research purposes. Not saying I want to sign in another person's account, but just out of curiosity, where do we sign in?

I personally dont think it was a hack.
I think it more likely a warcraft developer did something wrong and not an external hack.

If the slow down is only noticed on OSX, it's a OSX problem especially when OSX 10.7.5 just came out. Most application that runs perfectly on window tend to run poorly on OSX.

There is nothing note worthy about the iphone5.
I tend to agree, it's a subpar product.
If you compare it to 4s then it a little better, but if you compare it with any new android phone then it's mundane.

The McDonalds was just an example. Your points about lawsuits to being thrown away against McDonald, is irrelevant.
Whether people successfully sue McDs or not, is not the point, McDs should not charge more to certain people. Do you agree?
Yes, the insurance industry do charge more depending on the person. But my point still remain, The model is Bad.
Besides if you have a SET price, you should not change it because of probability or risk per person.

Mr. car washer.
By your argument, McDonalds should charge twice as much for a big mac to fat people because they are more likely to get health problems and sue McDonalds.
I think this model is just wrong and charging any customers more due to profiling should not be practiced by any company. Assuming that your formula is correct. Don't raise the price because of the probability and risk. You should train your employees and improve your quality of service, so that the probability is low enough, now you charge back the same $5 for a fararri carwash.

Is lifehacking a trend?
I remember in the good old days hacking was just hacking or social engineering. Now these 'hipster hackers' are giving it names like lifehacker, brogramming, etc.
I'm getting old.
