RDI for added sugar itself is 24-36 grams which a single 12oz can of Coke exceeds. Measuring in Calories, it's recommended to limit daily intake from added sugar to below 100-150 Calorie. [0] % of Caloric RDI isn't the whole story

I use worktrees, but some builds which uses git hash will fail in worktree checkouts, thinking that "it's not a git directory" (forgot the exact error, it's been a while); haven't found a solution to this

My personal experience is that the situation has improved somewhat but the hardware still plays a large part. A Kaby Lake laptop I had setup hibernation to encrypted swap (not file but partition iirc) worked well enough besides a few times

What would it take to get a self-hosted version of this, preferably using FireFox on the server? How hard would it be to get plugins working as well? Would this be essentially a way of using Blink/Servo based engine on i(Pad)OS?

If they did that, then hopefully they learnt a thing or two about networking :) But I do wonder if bandwidth limiting certain types of applications would be more effective, like reverse qos. There was a post a week or so ago on HN about add

I really don't understand this article's high tendency to slip in tangents that have little to do - long sentences enclosed by brackets, or worse, hyphens which made side stories hard to distinguish from main story. Those things h

I see, that makes sense. It'd be indeed worth it if we can apply a model trained on controlled environment to a more challenging one with little to no modification. Good luck with the project and keep us updated!

Not to put down the OP's work (I think it's a great project), but I'm just wondering what advantages might an ML approach have over "traditional" CV algorithms. In a really well controlled environment lanes will be
