Its silly to think protobufs code gen is a advantage. I can take a json object/xml/csv from any API and plug it into a website that will spit out models in any language I want. The only real advantage of grpc and protobufs have ar

Yes, using envoy was bad design in our situation. It was premature optimisation. We could either maintain a grpc API and a rest API , or a grpc API plus envoy, or 1 rest API. I am saying we should have picked 1 rest API and only switched to

We use a few of the endpoints in the backend. Service to service communication. Those same endpoints are used with envoy. By our UI. That choice was made to reduce code bloat. Rather than maintain grpc and envoy it's easier to just mai

We ended up wrapping them in envoy so that our UI can convert the grpc to regular old http 1. And that's where they get the most use. And by doing that we've added extra layers and it ended up slower than it would have been had we

We built a backend heavily using protobufs/grpc and I highly regret it. It ads an extra layer of complexity most people don't need. You need to compile the protobufs and update all services that use them. It's extra software

It really is silly it was classified as more dangerous than cocaine. A drug that you can actually overdose on.

No you don't get to look at these graphs and claim a 90 ldl has the same outcomes as a 140. That's just lying. Yes there are edge cases. You could get hit by a car with a 140. It's looking at all cause mortality. A higher ldl

It's a youtube video discussing a Scientific study. Here is the study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33293274/ A ldl of 140 mg/dL had a overall lower all cause mortality than those with a ldl of 100 or below

That's a pretty low carb intake. I do a good bit of cardio and will cramp really bad when I'm under 50g of carbs. I try to only get carbs from fruit, milk, and potatoes to keep the carbs clean.

Yeah it's crazy. Meat eaters are eating chicken fried in seed oils with soda. Take away the sugar, alcohol ,and seed oils and meat eaters are all healthy.

Lowering your ldl might actually make you die early. https://www.youtube.com/live/LSIyg_Z_ye4?si=O5uMFqligFcuPS8m A high ldl over the age of 60 is associated with a lower all cause mortality. And you are kinda right, h

It was a study of studies. The studies were meta analysis. In other words this study used zero direct observational studies. No one has ever fed one person a meat diet and another person meat free diet and shown there to be a increase or de
