Is Ethereum a "dangerous" technology to play with? With regards to contracts that might be deemed illegal.

You can see that he enjoys his writing, and I will enjoy reading this book.

It's tough!

I have a custom PHP app that includes marketing pages.

I'd like to crowbar Wordpress into the server to serve the marketing pages instead, to make it easie to change text over time.

A .htaccess set of redirect rules may indeed work, but it's hard work to keep all URLs working.

Isn't that the difference between Facebook and Twitter? Twitter got stuck on their once-innovative features. Facebook is changing more quickly than people can keep track of.

If I leave my job, can I "log out" of the app on my work machine without access to that machine?

Dealing with retirement investment policicies offered in Ireland, I see two sides:

1. Actively managed funds diversified across equitieis, bonds, cash, etc

2. Index funds for specific indices, such as "top 4,000 US companies"

The danger with 2, they say, is you're not diversified. That'll be up to me I suppose to try to diversity into other areas.

Not in the UK, but I've indeed considered taking photos of every piece of litter I see on my walk.

But my next step is to think, if I'm taking a photo, I might as well pick it up instead of complain.

My next step of logic is I can't conceivably help to change the behaviour of people that live around me in the city to not throw litter, so don't occupy myself with it.

Spam?

This would be reason enough for me to not take photos on holidays.

Documentting my every-day surroundings sometimes seems more worthwhile.

I agree whole-heartedly.

The one point they kind of sold me on is supplements, as in vitamins and minerals. The argument is that even fresh veg these days don't contain the same amount of nutrients as before, so it's a "good idea" to top up with supplements.

Each to their own, I suppose :)

I've quickly reviewed Asana, and actually found it quite complex.

Trello works nicely with our small team. People don't generally have full projects assigned to them, so a Trello card for a specific task to be executed works well.

I can appreciate the ability it gives you to flesh out tasks and projects.

Mindmapping is another nice tool to achieve this. Freemind is a useful piece of software (but doesn't have the future-proofness of plain text.)

> Critics say that the science is not yet strong enough to justify widespread recommendations for fasting as a way to lose weight or boost health, and that most of the evidence supporting it comes from animal research.

Should that not be the other way around, that more research is needed before recommending you eat three large meals a day plus snacks?

I agree.

But it makes me think too, other cultures have a strong emphasis on breakfast, and that doesn't necessarily include cereals (but it would include bread). Like France, Germany, and Finland.

I'm in Ireland, where people are definitely under the Kellogg's influence.

I do IF, with milk in my tea and coffee before lunch, and then break the fast at lunch time.

I think I better watch my milk input, particularly on non-lifting days (I'm a real amateur lifting), since it's probably bringing me out of "fasted" state according to my body. I drink a five cups of tea/coffee by lunch time.
