I've seen forks over knives. It smelled wrong and indeed it is.
There's a book "The China Study" that is a vegetarian promotion that claims to be based on the China Study data. Then there is the actual China study. The strongest (by far) univariate association in the China study is between wheat consumption and cancer.
The statistics used in the book are simply wrong. This has been exhaustively examined here.
The WWII accounts in FOK are particularly egregiously nonsensical. Derive your information from the available data and you get this
There's a point in FOK that the guy goes back to the doctor after his 'healthy' veggie diet. He gets his readout, they highlight the headline lipid profile on the bits of paper, but darken the rest of it. Pause the film and read the triglyceride number. That man's already got atherosclerosis and is heading for more.
Anyone can make film promoting a viewpoint. Watch 'Fat Head' as an example of a film that establishes the opposite.
The rats are bred to get cancer. It's going to happen. They're useful because its easy to measure how different interventions modulate the rate of cancer.
Start at this review of the literature at Hyperlipid , then follow through to the published journal papers linked in the article.
The summary at the end is..
"So in summary plants produce fructose which is both attractive and damaging to mammals. They protect themselves as best they can with antioxidants. I don't see any causality between fruit and vegetable consumption and improved health."
Really. Cut the following things out of your diet if you want to loose weight and/or avoid diabetes, cancer, Parkinson's or Alzheimer's.
1) Wheat 2) Sugar 3) MSG 4) Corn 5) Fruits and Vegetables 5) If you're fat - All carbohydrates
Also make sure that: 1) The cow meat you eat is from grass fed cows. 2) The cow milk you drink is not pasteurized and is from grass fed cows 3) The eggs and chickens you eat were raised outdoors on a diet of bugs and greens.
The science has been pointing this way for a long time now, but most people are blind to it.
I spent a fortune on text books. Many of them were good and I still use them today. I still buy textbooks to remain smart enough to remain employed. It sounds like textbooks today might not be as useful as the ones I have, or people would not have such a negative attitude to them.
Linux doesn't work completely on brand new hardware!!
It works great on our hardware. We get Linux working on it before we release it. We push the support into the kernel and GCC and binutils and all the other stuff before it becomes an issue.
Apple are hardly going to be focusing on cleaning up Linux's issues.
They THEORIZE it's based on neutrinos. They have no concrete evidence yet, I hold out for a more exciting explanation, because a new fundamental force would be way more awesome. Being neutrino-induced would be relatively boring.
No. They HYPOTHESIZE that it is based on neutrinos.
>The 'hole' is used for charging the lock's battery.
No. the hole enables charging of the lock's battery. It is typically not used as such.
No one actually stands there with a charger all day. Some one goes around with a screwdriver changing the batteries. Practically minded hotels use primary cells because they last longer so don't need changing so often.
Whatever the quick fix solution is, it probably involves making it difficult to access the hole.
Some of us make the instructions that other people invoke in assembly language. >C ain't assembly, that's for sure.
Assembler ain't microcode, that's for sure.
Microcode ain't system verilog, that's for sure.
Back in the day (sometime in the 90s) VRAM was the memory of choice for hardware RAM discs and big metal disk caches. The video port was perfect for bursting out tracks quickly on cache fetches, while the normal DRAM port was fine for random write throughs.
It's all done on a stupid ASIC these days. No creativity.
In the US, you usually buy colored paint by choosing the color from a display of color cards and an operator taps in the code to machine which squirts the right ratio of dyes into a white base paint. Another machine then vibrates the can to mix it, while you get on with the rest of your shopping.
It wouldn't be hard to add a squirter of said silver particles to the machine. Pay a premium for a squirt of wifi blocker. Of course they couldn't patent this, because I just said it.
If I put some of this wallpaper on the walls between me and neighbors in an apartment building (and maybe even something similar on floors/ceilings), could this plausibly increase signal quality by reducing interference from the 50 (!) other access points I currently see within range?
It will also improve your own network by limiting interference between the APs you have in each room.
>insurance companies stop covering the cost of such drugs
He speaks the truth. This is a very smelly change. It benefits only the drug companies and the insurance companies. The doctors get cut out of the loop and the patients (who might be unaware that statins don'twork) will carry on buying them because they don't have to visit one of the few enlightened doctors that understands this.
>It offers a significant power reduction (~22%), plus a slight boost in IPC, same clock rates, and a notable boost in IGP performance (~30%). For instance, i7 3770K (77W TDP, and HD 4000) vs i7 2700K (95W TDP and HD 3000) [anandtech.com]. Both are quad core, 8 thread, 3.5GHz with max turbo of 3.9GHz, and 8MB L3 cache. On the mobile CPU side, a new i7 3612QM, 35W quad core, 8 thread, 6MB L3 cache, and HD 4000 graphics, compared to at least 45W TDP on all prior quad core mobile i7 CPUs (with slower IGP).
>Israeli security suspects everyone (to different degrees). It's part of the reason they are successful at airline security, and stopped the Hindawi bombing.
In my experience traveling to and from Israel, the airport security not only is obviously more secure, it is also a lot less hassle than the security in Europe and America.
When they question you and inspect your bags, it takes 1-5 minutes, which is a lot less than waiting in line in a US airport.
>Well, not exactly what you were asking for, but Hindawi packed the bomb into the carry-on bag of his pregnant Irish fiancee [wikipedia.org].
Frisking a 4 year old would not have revealed the bomb in the bag. A standard X-ray of the carry on bag would be more effective against this particular scenario.

I already answered that one. Search this thread for Hyperlipid.
Stories are stories, science and logic are something else.

It's not a standard if you keep it a secret.

wait a minute
what year are we living right now???
1987+17 = 2004. He meant 17, not 20.
Patents prior to 1994 were 17 years, not including the submarine.

They did. The solution is "Don't overclock your processor".
