I think programming or computer science in general is more similar to managing/designing a restaurant or packing luggage for a vacation than like it is to math or language. Those latter two are sometimes sub-disciplines, though. Our code might perform math operations or we might try to make really clean code that is readable in a prose-like manner. Maybe mark-up language coding would rely more on the language part of the brain.

A closer look at U.S. deaths due to COVID-19 - The Johns Hopkins News-Letter[^]

Genevieve Briand, assistant program director of the Applied Economics master’s degree program at Johns Hopkins University

Some student at John's Hopkins did an analysis with the CDC's data. It got removed, but is still available in PDF. It showed no excess deaths. I read it, but didn't check the work, myself. Also, Dr Clare Craig (@clarecraigpath on twitter) does a lot of this type of analysis.

Eat nutritious (lots of veggies) and get into ketosis by keeping net carbs under 20 and maybe even under 10 grams a day. Watch protein intake, keep it around .5 * body weight in lbs = grams, otherwise that shit will basically turn in to sugar in your body. Also, learn which proteins absorb better. E.g. egg whites only absorb less than 20% and the rest turn to glycogen (stored glucose), whereas the entire egg is way higher. Weigh yourself every day, use a scale that sends measure to your phone so you can see it on a chart. Don't give a shit about calories eaten or burned. Just make sure you are eating zero added sugar. Do HIIT training and take long walks. It will relax you at night and lower your cortisol. 1.5 hours of serious sport, e.g. soccer or HIIT will burn about 600 calories, but again this is not for loosing weight it will make you feel good and may help you get to ketosis faster. Have a very large metal cup that you keep ice-water in. Do no drink coffee/caffeine, it raises cortisol. No more milk. It isn't doing your body good. It helps to get MCT oil (medium-chained triglycerides) which will convert into ketones fast and allow you to "fast" from carbs immediately. There are a few ways to consume it. Your snacks should include nuts/seeds that are low carb. Get extra light tasting olive oil and add it to everything, also sea salt. Eat the nut/seed snacks with organic peanut butter added (not the cheap skippy shit, because you will react to the pesticides from eating so much of it and it has added sugar). Get the ready to eat bags of spinach. They are your staple food. Cook entire thing in a big pot, add butter, salt to your liking. Cooking veggies can destroy some vitamins, but also brings out others. Learn which ones gain/loose due to cooking. Buy whole mushrooms (they are easier clean), slice and cook in a pan and add to anything. They provide more taste than most people think. These are just some ideas. You want to burn fat for energy instead of glucose. Most people have ~70,000 calories in their body in the form of fat, and only ~1,700 calories of glucose in their blood stream. A typical person has to keep eating throughout the day to keep blood sugar levels high or they crash. The best method is to switch your body to using fat as a source for energy to loose weight. This is ketosis. Also, start watching Dr. Berg on youtube. He has tons of presentations on keto diet and the science of it. Good luck.

No, less safe. Our non-fire arms crime is also high. Firearms are the private citizen's equalizer against violent criminals.

I like the metro concept, however, the site looks too bright for my tastes. The eyes adjust exposure (pupils dialate or shrink like aperture on camera) based overall tones which is extremely high now and I feel like it makes it harder to decipher darker colors (including plain old black text) across the page as result. This leads to more eye strain I think. I would recommend a muted texture like the one found visual studio 2010 so that the overall tones would be reduced. For example, if I place a dark colored folder across the bottom of the monitor, my eyes immediately begin to relax. Otherwise, I like the simplicity of the new look.

D600 might be a better choice than D700 for most poeople given 700 doesn't do video. Otherwise, better auto focus would tilt the scales (if it is true).

Do I have a cooking timer? I think the microwave's does me well enough!

Crime is prevented by law abiding citizens brandishing/using guns FAR more than they are used to perpetuate crimes. Especially where concealed carry is allowed by law.

I think I read somewhere that it will not use Active Directory, precluding it from use by enterprises that have bought into the "bring your own device" philosophy.

It's all that water and fruitjuice you drink.

Fruit juice has tons of sugar just as soda does (non-diet). I'm willing to bet that fruit juice alone is a major cause of the fat-ass and lazy desease among kids. People think fruit = healthy => fruit juice is healthy and don't consider how many fruits went into actually making one cup of fruit juice.

Oddly enough, it began working. [edit: Now it stopped working. After adding a unti test, I can no longer step into the source code from the accessor object]. Very annoying. [FINAL Edit: solved] I came across a similar issue here: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/556756[^] Way down at the bottom of the comments: 5/11/2010 at 7:24 AM ..solution: "add a breakpoint to the code." Works everytime now.

Can we no longer step into private accessor methods in Visual Studio 2010 during unit testing? The debugger just skips over the method instead of stepping into the private method via MyClass_Accessor class. I understand there are some issues with private methods in vs 2010's test framework, but is this problem I am having actually one of the issues? Thanks in advance.

Did you ask for that from first person who told you that eggs/bacon/fat/cholesterol was unhealthy? Really.

BS. It's all a lie. Eating cholesterol has nothing to do with your heart health, nor does it actually affect your cholesterol levels AND your cholestrol level is useless information. While I'd stay away from bacon with added sodium nitrates, the uncured bacon is absolutely healthy for you. Eggs are a very cheap form of protien. The charge that eating cholesterol will raise your cholesterol level makes about as much sense as saying eating too much brocoli will cause it to sprout from your forehead.

The thought of desinging pocket-sized nail strips (like the one's police use to stop a suspect's vehicle) crossed my mind after my last trip to India. There it seems the lower on the social spectrum you are, the faster vehicles drive at you. In fact, poor people in the cross walks happen to have the same effect as yellow lights here in the US have on drivers. Until then, my advice is to keep a nice rock in your pocket and know when and how to use it and get away with it.

Another post made without compiling and building before hand to discover ambiguous statements and such. Sorry.

Good example.

A least I don't have to wait for some smuck in my country to ask me how many mega-pixel's my dslr camera gets while he holds up his pos Nokia camera and announces that it takes 41 mega-pixel photos. Wishful thinking is usually rhetorically expressed out loud in my vicinity soon after some new point and shoot development comes about (eg. iPhone). http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/02/27/nokia-shows-game-changer-41-megapixel-smartphone/?intcmp=features[^]
