Interesting idea. Does anyone do this for Azure?

How often does the CEO change though? What would the alternative strategy be? If you feel that the CEO is likely to get replaced or that the CEO is likely to change strategy isn't that a good signal that you should be looking to work a

You can modify the algorithm to do n-degree contacts as well though and then you can propagate a positive test through the network accounting for time delays. Contact tracing should allow you to be more effective with fewer tests since you

It's roughly 9 hours of coding and 3 hours of brainstorming with my co-founder. I do notice that my focus wavers quite a bit. Meditation has helped with this to a certain extent. Health is my first priority so I make sure I'm gett

I never understand these studies. I'm bootstrapping a startup and my work output scales linearly with hours until about 60 hours per week. 60 hours per week is comfortable with 4x12 hour days and then 12 hours over two shorter days. To

Kombucha is a great vegan source of B12, one of the key nutrients mentioned in the article. The B12 in kombucha actually comes from the culture itself.

I've found that meditation has also helped me. I read several books on the subject of meditation but found "The Mind Illuminated" to be the best.

This study uses an inscrutable statistical model to arrive at this conclusion. On the other hand I have yet to see an epidemiological study that shows abstaining results in a lower hazard ratio than moderate drinking. Consider the following

I'm 2.5 months sober and this has been my experience as well. I'm now much more wary of getting myself into situations where I might be bored. I'm naturally extraverted so I still enjoy the social aspect of parties but I&#x27

I have never understood this and this very issue has caused trouble in my romantic relationships. Here's my thought process: why would someone talk about something if they don't want input? It seems like a waste of time. Where&#x2

I didn't see this, thanks for posting it! My thought process was really similar to the author's actually and I've been happy with the results so far. I've distributed the lights around my room with shades to mitigate the

I absolutely agree. As an aside I also have a CO2 monitor (Awair device) and make sure to keep my bedroom/home office below 700ppm. This is easily achieved by keeping the window open. Self experimentation has shown that I tend to yawn

Thanks! My only other recommendations of similar books but have already been mentioned would be the Steve Jobs book by Isaacson and Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!

Tangentially related: I've been experimenting with very bright lights from when I wake up to sunset. In my bedroom/home office I have a couple 6000k LED lights at 8100 lumens making the room almost as bright as noon outdoors. Post

It's certainly possible that the relationship is not causal and can be explained by correlations with depression, unemployment, sleep apnea, etc. However I'm not aware of any study that definitively proves this. It would be great

There seems to be quite a lot of information about why <7 hours sleep is bad for you, but I'm more interested in why sleep >=8 hours is associated with increased mortality. See for example https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.g

Normally I would be inclined to agree with you but the article specifically says: "The research has some important limitations including ... the subjective measure of sleep being based on time spent in bed rather being asleep per se&q

I saw this with a partner. She was extremely agreeable and would compromise her own sleep to make time for others. I suppose that doing this over time adds up and extracts a toll.

Thanks! I pull conventional, I'm no good at sumo. I would agree that multi-day fasts would not be good for strength sports. There doesn't seem to be a authoritative source but LeanGains states you won't lose muscle if you&#x2

Personally I haven't noticed any reduction in strength doing 8 hour time restricted eating. I've hit my most recent PRs doing this. For reference I'm decently strong with squat/bench/deadlift being 470/320&#x2F

What country and tech? I haven't heard of this before and I wonder if it's a recent phenomenon due to the strength of the US dollar.

I've been experimenting with mouth taping recently. When I'm able to use it effectively it does result in a much more restful sleep and my blood pressure seems to be lower the next day. I believe that the lowered blood pressure is

I'm reading Aubrey de Grey's book Ending Aging right now. I'm finding it to be a good read and a great introduction to his approach, SENS ( http://www.sens.org ).

Time restricted eating is probably the most compatible with weight lifting. Personally I'm interested in longer fasts but I'm under my goal weight. I would also be interested in more research about how to gain muscle while fastin

Are there products that are already using probabilistic inference for debugging already? How mature is this approach?

It's hard to say if it would have helped. My rationale would be that the engineers commonly dogfood their own products and do ad-hoc testing so a black engineer may have been able to catch the bug before it hits production. Taking the
