  1. Not only developers on Ask Slashdot: Do You Run a Copy-Cat Installation At Home? · · Score: 2

    I have a couple machines at home that run tomcat and apache (and others that I can't afford a license to) to test out configuration ideas and to wade into new technologies and new versions prior to the POCs we run through. That way I can be the leader in these efforts at the office, instead of everyone fumbling around.

    The people that fall into the bucket of not able to cook for the reasons you mention are also the ones likely to hear a study that says multivitamins don't work, and if they were taking them will stop.

    Yep.

    It's not like I don't WANT to eat a more healthy diet. I do get the salad greens at costco and try to do it when I can, but when I am putting in 12 - 16 hour days it ain't possible to do it. And I LIKE cooking. There are millions of people that don't like cooking and can't make anything tasty to save their lives

    or I am sitting at my desk working while posting to slashdot, but that same time can not be taken to the kitchen at home to cook.

    So you get to 2-4 stores each week, the time searching for what's on sale and learning too cook, all for free, and it takes no time?

    Healthy foods are not cheaper. You can get a full meal from mcdonalds for under $4.
    That can live in the fridge for weeks and never go bad. Spend the same $4 on fresh foods and they will go bad in days

    I bet the news of this study causes more harm than good. The takeaway many will have is that multi vitamins don't help anyone. When they clearly serve a purpose for those stuck on the fast food treadmill

    exactly.

    The qualifier is stupid. If you are well nourished you don't need to supplement anything. But if you aren't lucky enough to be able to have the time to prepare your own perfect meal every day, then you may need something.

    let's also remember the current post office is protected from many searches by the government, private entities are not. That is also a driving force here.
