lifeplusplus··on Cholesterol treatment can cut levels by 69% after one dose
Overall populations don't have flawed genes... Before jumping on statins and such it's important fixing underlying cause and even then try to get actual data my having imagine to get soft plaque.. not cacb score which is only relevant in later stages

High cholesterol could be from high glucose/insulin damaging arteries

Or could also be from weight loss

Simplest fixes are

- eat low carb

- don't eat all day intermittent fasting

- walk after eating to lower spike

- eat olives which protects lining of veins and arteries

- avoid seed oils

- pick antiinflammatory foods and supplements

- take l-arginine and similar supplements, sunlight, green veggies, no mouth wash, exercise to increase nitrogen oxide production... Breath through nose as well

- exercise to increase good cholesterol

- sleep well and keep cortisol low (stress)

Cholesterol is needed for hormones, brain, everything... I believe statin are linked to Alzheimer

lifeplusplus··on RNA repair mechanism discovered in humans
i dont a human can create a system this complicated... i dont think we can even map it out. if it's done, it'd be done by AI and it'd be a black box. we couldn't create an autonomous car, we need ai to come up with million rules and parameters. same story here just order of magnitudes more complex.

computers wasn't something anyone could make publish right, internet was easier to get into, for computers you needed companies like IBM and MS.
lifeplusplus··on Ask HN: Do you hate software engineering but love programming?
pretty much what most PMs don't do exactly, they just take what managment says verbatium and just throw screenshots on top of another screenshot together without even bothering to properly account for most common states, research? user insights? etc.. it always goes like this: we made change x, our y metric increased. Waste of space.

lifeplusplus··on Ask HN: Do you hate software engineering but love programming?
Precisely my feeling on this topic. We don't need scrum Masters, product managers and even most managers who are not technical. Too many people trying to have a say in something they have no expertise in. Basically software engineers are treated like a coding monkey.
lifeplusplus··on Ask HN: Do you hate software engineering but love programming?
That's me... I loved coding, I did it in my spare time. Then I got a job it's been downhill since then. I thought maybe I was a junior. Then I thought I was at the wrong company. Then I told him maybe I was working in the role or programming stack?.

But that's not it, I like writing code, I like refactoring code, I like debugging code but I don't like that it'd be held as a knife to my throat every day forever.

At my job there has never been a slow day. At one of my past job our manager had to go for 2 weeks and that was the most productive we had ever been. We shipped more , built more , collaborated more, and it all felt like a breeze.

Right now I feel as engineers we have been subjugated to being a coding monkey. You are told what to do, when to do, how to do and how much you should have done by now. You are monitored, of made to dance, and forced to be glad that you even have the chance.

I've spoken to people who have been in the industry for 10 15 years and they say this was not how it used to be

How were you able to write a book, I mean it's a lot of writing. How long did it take you to write the whole thing. Did you use some special program? How did you publish it? How did you plan your lessons or chapters?

lifeplusplus··on Assess risk like a 4-star general
In my opinion, if you want to get good at assessing risk then you should play a strategy game where you're not the only player. For example, age of empires 4 multiplayer free for all with seven other players is peak analyzing risk. You have to think about so many things.
