...although this one would have been a good fit too, of course: https://xkcd.com/149/

finally now i can kill pippin

Sure, but compare the price of silver to a year ago...

This makes for a good story, but if in fact a part of their wifi setup was outdoors, wouldn't that be the first place you start checking?

This was my thought exactly. The much more boring but accurate title would be "Outdoor point-to-point wifi bridge system affected by weather"

Yep, the nonstandard part of their setup absolutely should have been the first thing to consider. Feels a bit disingenuous to not mention that part straight away.

Norway has been on this steady path for quite a while. I remember some years ago, when we still lived in central Europe, I compared the prices for electricity and in Germany, they were about 3x (!) higher per kWh than Norway.

Petrol prices, however, were roughly the same.


But also high in fat and thus calories. Lower-grade brands also add in garbage like palm fat or sugar. But like with all things, it depends a lot on the quantities you consume and also what else you eat and drink.

Of course, but personally I find it hard to eat too much of a ‘nut’ butter. I did keto for some months and was, in fact, almost always nauseatingly full from all the fat.

Interesting. I could eat PBJs all day long, if someone let me (and thank you to all the loving people who don't!)

Well, that J over there might be the trick. In keto I wouldn’t use jelly. I ate whatever fats and bits of protein I wanted, but it turns out that you’re full all the time and end up eating less (~2.2k calories vs my median of 2.6k).

The high fat is a benefit not a detriment.

Depends on your views of the lymphatic system and the role of fiber and protein. My fiber intake during keto was <15g, and I think my colon wasn’t happy.

Depends on the function you're trying to optimize.

I wish I, too, could do stuff like that while being unconscious.

Geez, that headline was hard to parse.

The one phrase I've come to despise is "entrepreneurial risk", especially when it's used to justify exorbitant salaries of the higher ranks. Because, really, that "risk" for the most part is trickled down to the peasants who get laid off at a heartbeat whenever business is bad. They're not people with families and liabilities and lives, they're commodities.

I'd say your risk of losing your livelihood is higher as a simple employee than as a CEO when we're talking about post-startup companies.
