The real epidemic in the USA: diabetes and obesityhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27950951The fact is, the USA leads the world in two of the leading factors correlated to bad coronavirus outcomes — obesity and diabetes. The epidemic has been here for decades, with even CHILDREN experiencing both obesity and diabetes — largely as a result of the US food industry, with its genetically engineered crops, putting sugar and high fructose corn syrup in everything. The government actually subsidizes this crap. And to top it all off, the health insurance system in the USA is worse for these people than almost all developed countries in the world. In other countries, people go to the doctor when they feel like they should. In the USA many people don’t even get preventative checkups! 25% of diabetics report having to ration their insulin. This is the highest rate among any developed country. Yet we are also among the richest per capita.Despite being mega rich, the USA has failed its population in terms of public health. Everyone, including children, is fed a diet that produces the higJul 25, 2021 5:12 PM

Ask HN: Good article I saw on HN but can't find?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27932706There was a blog post within the last year or two on HN that compared a codebase to a professional kitchen. It talked about how someone inexperienced might walk into a kitchen and see superficial signs that it was dirty, but an experienced kitchen worker would know that the parts that matter were clean. There might be scuffs and scorch marks that aren't worth cleaning, while the spots that could grow bacteria or contaminate food have been kept spotless. This was used as an analogy for what really makes a codebase "clean", distinguishing the things that matter from the things that are purely aesthetic. I thought it was really insightful.I've had trouble searching for this article. Anybody have a link or remember the title?Jul 23, 2021 4:41 PM

Launch HN: Payflow (YC S21) – Allow workers to access their wages instantlyhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27916764Hi HN, we are Benoît and Avi, co-founders at Payflow (https://www.payflow.es/). We’re making a better app for workers to instantly access their earned wages. We launched a year ago in Spain (where we’re based!). Anyone in Spain can try our product. Otherwise, here’s a demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSDlGhoFNyM.75% of employees in Spain and Latam live paycheck to paycheck and many have no savings. They often run out of cash before payday, especially if they have an unexpected expense. This is an issue for employers too, because high employee turnover amongst low-income employees is costly. Most employee perks (e.g. health insurance, flexible benefits, snacks in the office), which are so familiar to HN, are usually reserved to white-collar workers in Latam. Said employee perks are too expensive for blue-collar employers, and more importantly are not what employees who are struggling with financial instability actually need.Given the inequality (and wealth) of our societies, Jul 22, 2021 8:41 AM
