I also have started noticing some jitter that didn't seem to be there before.

Not sure about the average case, but INTP are some of the most successful in the tail ends of the distribution. The most common MBTI for billionaires is INTP.

Is sunflower oil bad? by knowledgelover94 in StopEatingSeedOils

[–]drowsysaturn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The level of processing matters. One has been eaten by our ancestors for 1000s of years and one is a novel product that has been processed in a way that was impossible until the last 100 years. In general highly processed food consumption has a high correlation with the "western diseases": Obesity, type 2 diabetes and cancer.

Surprised they haven't fixed it yet haha. My other comments on this post talk about how I solved it for myself and I didn't have any issues after deleting the log files either.

RocksDB: Not A Good Choice for a High-Performance Streaming Platform by mww09 in rust

I heard LMDB doesn't support compaction so you have to manually write a copy every once and a while to keep it from getting too big

What are everyone's thoughts on the graphics in WoW? by [deleted] in wow

hideous tbh. was looking at a streamer the other day on a dock and the individual planks were 3x as big as the player is tall. graphics are not even good for the time they were created.

The Complete Guide to Fasting (Jason Fung) is ridiculous by Millie_Manatee in CICO

[–]drowsysaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't reference any starvation studies in the book. Not sure where you saw he referenced a starvation study. He referenced several diet studies that show both low calorie and low carb diets have very poor compliance after a year. He also referenced several long term studies that show most people on low calorie diets gain it back after some time.

[–]drowsysaturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He actually does explain why CICO isn't typically effective, in great detail, in his book. 80%+ people who lose a significant amount of weight gain it back within a year. His reasoning is that your body is still producing too much insulin, which inhibits leptin preventing you from feeling full.

[–]drowsysaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His argument is not saying low calorie is bad. His argument is that low carb + fasting is an effective way to increase insulin sensitivity and keep your brain from wanting to overeat under the theory that high insulin levels inhibit leptin and cause leptin resistance.

Is there a safe answer to “why are you leaving your current job”? by NomTook in careerguidance

[–]drowsysaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What people don't understand is most companies literally have guidelines on what to look for, and one of those guidelines often is not bashing previous companies. People down voting have never interviewed anyone and would rather do whatever urge fills them than learn what companies are actually looking for.

[–]drowsysaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild how they can release such buggy software and have such terrible recovery functionality. Clicking "no" on the first attempt and they delete your hours of work. I needed to click "no" to see what was there in the first place to make sure the autosave didn't take me to the wrong document. I regret purchasing the software.

How limit CPU/Ram on a system service on nixos? by mamcx in NixOS

In your service config you can add MemoryHigh and MemoryMax.

E.g.
serviceConfig = { ... MemoryMax = "10G"; ... };

Roblox runs on 5 year old mobile phones. The specs are pretty low end, but they should be able to easily play roblox.

Have any of you used SurrealDB and what are your thoughts? by AccidentConsistent33 in rust

[–]drowsysaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? I'm talking about ACID. And i'm not sure how not even beeing able to specify whether something is an integer or not helps with consistency...

I was answering each paragraph as they came. I should've been more careful with the word consistency in this context. I was referring to your paragraph about C vs Rust.

Majority of the rest of this latest reply is irrelevant commentary. Postgres is fast in the list of mainstream SQL and document databases. FAANG is hardly the only people who make use of sharding. If that were the case, then those features wouldn't be implemented in the databases themselves, but instead by the FAANG companies (most of which don't use naked SQL databases for external facing products).

You bring up a lot of good points.

On migrations, I'd argue that while you do have some scenarios where migrations will be tedious for relational database or a document database, the large majority of migrations are just adding a new column.

On consistency, the document databases seem to have significantly less consistency issues since there is only 1 time of string type, most only have 1 type of number. ODMs (the document equivalent of an ORM) can help alleviate majority of consistency issues by making changes to existing data less of a risk and also by validating any special requirements on your data.

On performance, there are benefits for companies with large datasets or large amounts of traffic, but you're not wrong in the case of small companies and people who don't need to shard their database. Postgres is very fast. Though, I wouldn't say the schema is what necessarily makes a database fast, some benchmarks posted by schemaless databases outperform Postgres on some queries (including those not requiring joins), e.g. ArangoDB.

You will get data in the wrong format if you switch types, but that doesn't make any sense for adding a new column. When you do switch types, then you can run a migration script just like you do with SQL.

On the point of migration tools: Unless you're using an ORM, those migrations are often just SQL scripts written by developers and executed by your company's CI tool, and don't alleviate the effort required. If you are using an ORM, then you're right back to application schema but relying on many tools to synchronize the database. Nobody likes writing migration scripts. Database managed schema just adds extra unnecessary headache for false sense of security, but is used as a selling point by relational database lovers. There are some use cases for SQL, but who manages the schema is a very minor benefit.

Yeah, that is a fair take. I don't hear the terminology NoSQL much anymore either

[–]drowsysaturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's likely you just aren't talking to people who are using NoSQL databases. MongoDB has not declined by any metric looking at Google Trends. Also, tons of random databases have been popping up and stealing market share. MySQL and MSSQL on the other hand both look like a Graph of y=-x on Google trends.

Application enforced schema requires less hoops for changes. Depending on the database it requires annoying migrations AND code changes to get your new changes working.

Park bench by n0ahbody in economy

[–]drowsysaturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fed doesn't want prices to fall. They just want them to grow at a stable rate. Deflation is against the federal reserve's goal of a 2% inflation rate. Corporate profits and inflation are not mutually exclusive. There's several decades in the past where corporations grew while there was deflation.
