>Waymo's cars, and a few others use long-range LIDARs able to see 200m or more...There is a dark irony that this longer range LIDAR is what the Waymo vs. Uber lawsuit was about<

Prior to the accident, I gave high probabilities that Uber performed a surgery on their LIDAR systems after the lawsuit, aiming to eliminate anything with legal implications. If the above comment is true, and uber is not using any long-range LIDAR, please someone with better knowledge help to stop Uber testing of an unsafe system.

I love bikes and bikers, but think that the kind of freedom some of us exhibit is dangerous. We should abide more by the rules for bikes, as we expected the car drivers to abide by their own rules.

If when we bike we break the rules, we might generate dangerous situations for pedestrians, for ourselves and for cars. It took me while to realize this.

On the other side, if the rules are inappropriate, then yes, we have to bargain for new rules. But the article did not added anything about this. God thanks I do not need to register my bike and get a plate!

But we might need to develop a test to get a e-bike license :)

I did read it. They might have other method issues, but not that one you mention. In this analysis the did not focus on insulin secretion or sensibility.

You are right in a sense. The authors used to say that it does not matter what you eat, as far as is a lot of caloric restriction. That was back in 2016, when I interviewed them. I hope now they will disagree if someone comes with a 800 calorie diet made of sugar only.

>could we say that a high calorie diet can maintain or accelerate diabetes. Yes we can say that. But we can say the same about an isocaloric diet and a negative balance diet of 5 or 10% deficit. It is better said as the paper did.

My reading of the last 3 years of findings regarding changes in resting metabolic rate due to caloric restriction is that they could become big enough to explain the pattern of weight regain. Now, the specific quantification of the relationship between amount, lenght of caloric restriction and resting metabolic rate is, in my opinion, waiting for a trove of data we do not have yet.

Well, you just backed from your initial saying "pay". That was a great concern, being "cozy", etc. is not so.

"How did people lose their retirement investments in 2008..following typical investment strategies?" Well, you can follow those strategies until fear takes over. I know of a graduate scholar that got scared, got her money out when you saw how her investment accounts went downwards. You keep the cash, fearing that if you invest again you will loose all. You see how the market goes up, but you do not believe on it again. Or the sunk cost fallacy...or risk aversion with an overestimation of risk.

The more financial AND emotional intelligence you have the less likely you are to fall into such life.

But let's have empathy because the majority of people have less financial intelligence and cold blod as the average hn reader. Let alone the chance of earning a very good salary for a few decades.

I was in that debate too, at the end I chose to go with a two year windows phone...similar results :) , but still i can check the web if i need to.

No, in the news there are indications of Apple talking with providers of BMW, Mercedes and Volkswagen

There is nothing in the free market economic rules that promotes or guarantees progress over long-term, including journalism. The good economic outcomes did not come and will not come out of that rules. All econometric models will show you how other assumptions were required for that to happen.

It will be actions other than free market ones that will allow or not the survival of journalism. Hope they will get it before they die.
