news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-20 11:29:55

‍ “Men would rather pop Viagra forever than let a leech near their body,” Dr. Andrei Dokukin says with only a hint of hyperbole. From his Long Beach, California, clinic, Dokukin is one of the only medical doctors in America practicing leech therapy (also known as hirudotherapy) for internal medicine and non-surgical conditions. While his clients are treated for chronic pain, arthritis, and circulatory issues, rather than erectile dysfunction, Dokukin notes that ED could, in fact, be successfull

This open-source fasting app actually helped me hit my fitness goals

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority I was never an athletic kid, and that continued through most of my 20s. That is, until I decided to change things up, drop some weight, and focus more on my health. Intermittent fasting was a big part of that journey, and I’ve been following it for several years now. In fact, it’s the one constant in my wellness journey that has actually stuck with me.

Does OLAP Need an ORM

TL;DR · ORMs have proven to be useful for many developers in the OLTP/transactional stack (Postgres, MySQL, etc). · OLAP/analytical databases like ClickHouse could potentially benefit from ORM abstractions. · Existing transactional ORMs probably shouldn’t be extended to OLAP due to fundamental differences in semantic meaning between OLTP and OLAP. · Moose OLAP (part of MooseStack) is an open source, MIT-licensed implementation of an ORM-like interface for ClickHouse, inspired by tran
