What's a good modern text to approach the genre?

But if they are making this direct link between ultra-processed foods and increased mortality, then surely it's these specific substances that are responsible for it?

Not necessarily. Think about it like cigarettes. The nicotine is what gets you addicted, but it is not what kills you. In a similar vein, these additives might cause you in some way or another to consume an unhealthy diet in the most general sense. So the effect can be more indirect.

cucumber_sandwich ,

So what are you saying? Even with pretty good vision it makes a massive difference?

cucumber_sandwich ,

It's freaking hard

Over a large range of sizes for many physical reasons larger turbines can be more efficient per space and per cost. For example there is less ground effects for larger turbines and the rotor area scales quadratically with hub height.

Capitalism can't exploit it as much as manual labor so there's no money in it, unfortunately.

Doesn't that mean that art is exploited even more?

You can clean clothes in a. Ultrasonic bath?

What you don't get is a feeling for how common these failures occur though.

C code that reproduces a running binary on an up to date compiler is worse than a machine code binary for a legacy machine of which complete Emulation is not guaranteed?

cucumber_sandwich ,

Ah, i think i misunderstood your comment.

In terms of archiving I agree, in terms of restoring a running copy from an archive, maybe not.

Mostly secure key exchange via quantum key distribution. QKD automatically detects eavesdropping and can thereby guarantee a secure key exchange based on fundamental physics. That's basically it.

cucumber_sandwich ,

Yes, physically secure key exchange, but at Tage same time mist progress also correlates with progress in quantum computing and quantum attacks on classical crypto and most key security problems are not due to transport attacks. But its a good thing.

So countries aren't allowed to have differences between the city and the countryside? Same could be said about many western countries.

Tel Aviv is not the only Israeli city...

And I never said that. It is the one with the most liberal international reputation though.

Thinking of the area in a classical rural-city divide doesn't work anyways, because you don't have the "lived in my village seen nothing else since 10 generations" families

The rural-city divide is not about people staying in the same place for generations, otherwise the us wouldn't have one. It's about progressive and traditional values. And Israel does have geographical differences in that regard.

Anything else?

Should I avoid or engage in current news right now?

During the last 'election summer' things went haywire but ultimately nothing meaningful really happened, and not a whole lot really changed as a result of that unrest. This time things are going haywire again, and it seems like something big will happen but people thought that the last time... Would it just be better to ignore...

cucumber_sandwich ,

Get a weekly newspaper on physical paper. All of the news, none of the day to day hype.

There's several gravity based things. Some lift a piston of rock, some drop weights down old mine shafts...
