She worries that an entire generation of young people raised on instant noodles, burgers and pizza remains blissfully unaware of how it will impact their health in the future. “We definitely need a diet revolution,” says Melissa Baker, who oversees the nutrition plan for thousands of students at the University of British Columbia. As Health Canada prepares to release new national food guidelines in 2019, the message couldn’t be more timely. We should focus on what food actually is and how it’s made. Their message? Stop obsessing over fats vs. It’s no wonder Moubarac and a growing group of scientists and dietitians are calling for a culinary coup. Over the past several years, our appetite for convenience foods has skyrocketed - and so has the rate of obesity and diabetes.įood guru Tim Spector’s top ten tips for a healthier dietĮnter the calorimeter: a chamber that measures how many calories your body needsĪre you a supertaster? Here’s why you should know - and how to find out “It’s a nutritional calamity.” His work suggests that only one in five Canadians cooks every day. “Poor diet is the leading risk factor for death in Canada,” warns University of Montreal professor Jean-Claude Moubarac. These foods are tasty and manufactured to make us crave them. As The Diet Myth author Tim Spector notes, “So what is there left to eat? Maybe a bit of lettuce.”Īt the same time, a whopping half of the calories we consume come from food that isn’t really food: it’s ultra-processed concoctions of starch, sugar, salt, hydrogenated oils, preservatives and additives. We’ve been told we can’t have bread, we shouldn’t eat eggs and to hold the butter. Each file saved on the disk would have a CHECKSUM (to detect bitrot) amd then I'd have a program run a comparison to see if the CHECKSUMS between the two disks match for every file, or at least report that one of the files has a discrepancy compared to the other.Every day, it seems, we’re fed new advice about our diets. I'd ideally like to move older seasons onto cheap 2x2TB hard drives that are $40 apiece (far cheaper in the long run than Amazon Glacier). The big problem I'm facing - cold storage. For example, if I had 8x4TB, 16TB useable, I'd like to leave 4TB free so I can swap out 2x4TB for 2x8TB + 6x4TB to give the NAS room to 'breathe' and grow. I usually like to leave one spare 'dual bay' worth of free space open in the event I need to pull two hard drives and replace them with two larger ones.

Eventually I can expand my NAS (Windows Server 2016 using ReFS - to hell with RAID card firmware bugs) to 32TB (8x8TB in RAID1) but I will run out of room at some point. The problem - I have a growing archive of Michigan Athletics video (4-5TB now). Hello - this post will probably seem Greek to nearly everyone here but I'm hoping there's a few of you out there that work at Amazon AWS/Google GCE/Microsoft Azure or have a NAS/SAN at home.
