  • but the habit of overeating is gone

    It’s only gone as long as they stay on the drug. Unless they make an effort to change their lifestyle and eating habits while they’re on the drug, nothing will change. For people who have immediate health issues due to their weight, then a drug like that makes sense. But for fat people trying to lose weight, I don’t think it’s sustainable.

    I’m fortunate to be of a healthy weight and I’ve never had to worry about obesity. However, I do consciously make choices to eat less even when my body begs me to eat more. I feel like it would be much harder to develop that “skill” if I was on a drug like ozembic. The point is to learn to say “no” when my body is begging me to say “yes”.

    They’re not mute, but they also aren’t saying stuff like that. It would mean she remembered and understood the death scene of a ~1.5hr movie at the age of 2, and understands social norms enough to concoct a dastardly plot to monopolize that edible playdoh in the OP.

    Even at 3, that’s a stretch. At 4? Sure. At barely 3? No way.

    This is far from the first (or last) time he wrote something like this. This was just a regular thing in the kernel world for a long time (until Linus matured a little).

    Whether or not it was a good thing is up for debate I think. Yeah, it’s very rude and unprofessional (and discourages new contributors who don’t want to risk getting chewed out), but considering the importance of the Linux kernel, it’s good to know the lead maintainer is doing too much of the right thing than not enough (i.e. being lax with bad code in order to be respectful). I’m fine knowing that a few tech workers got their egos smashed if it gives me confidence that the code powering civilization is high quality.








  • All single board computers have driver problems because they require custom kernel forks that can’t or don’t get mainlined for whatever reason (usually laziness), but Raspberry PI is actually the best when it comes to that stuff.

    So when you buy an SBC, you need to ask yourself: will the company continue to develop/update/patch their custom kernel fork now that they shipped? Or will they just abandon it and move on to the next product? 9 times out of 9.01, it’s the latter.
