What demand? The demand they are artificially creating?

I still don’t understand how people travelling to the US in the cuurent state of things.

This, so much this…

I have no idea why I liked that book so much, I miss their conversations. Of the 3 last books I enjoyed the 5th one the most (Heretics of Dune).

These people really live in a different reality than the rest of us.

But then they can’t take that machine and claim it’s the precursor to actual Artificial Inteligence

Hopefully you will get some clarity on your doctors visit. That said, I echo the weight lifting advice. Cardio could potentially be worse at this stage since it will mean more energy expended.

As for food, peanut butter is indeed a good choice. There are also plant base protein powders you could look into to.

Since you are very underweight, I would not exclude junk food like chips, for example. Very caloricly dense.

I feel your pain. I tried using for work to make a dummy banner image for placeholder. It would never give me the size I requested, ever. Tried different ways of saying the same thing but the image size was always the same.

Very good summary of the Corporate shitshow

Cruelty is the point

This seems more and more true.

Like the user above said, virtually all human code has been fed to the models, now there’s very little new original human code been put online and with more adoption of LLMs in coding will only exacerbate this.

Programming is not about writing code… Programing is about solving problems

Very well put. Good managers know that but those are very rare… And the whole top management in the world is completely bought into this snake oil, makes me feel insane.

Outside of a human body, a calorie is a calorie. Once inside being digested things get more complex. What I stated was not pulled out of thin air, take a look here

The truth is: Energy measurements of foods do not accurately reflect the energy a human body will get out of them.

Not to mention the fact that different people get different energy out of the same foods, since an integral part of our digestive system are hundres of different species of bacteria that vary between humans.

Bodybuilding style Lifting. Wish I knew that science based influencers are just using science as a gimmick to make new videos and bold claims for short form content.

Lifting is hard when done right but its not super complex. The basics are the same they were decades ago:

• be consistant and stick to a routine at least 6 months.
• Learn the proper lift techniques
• learn how to train to failure (failure is not mandatory every set but you need to know where it is in order to train close to it for adaptations to occur)
• Keep progressing weights when you can without sacrificing technique. (Progressive overload is both the driver and the result of muscle growth, as long as your work sets are close to failure the growth stimilus is there)

Yeah. Fruits have sugars but they come “packaged” differently and impact our bodies differently

Nuts are very caloricly dense, yes but since they are whole foods they do not have the same effect on your weight as a processes snack with the same amount of calories (say chips or candy). If you’re gonna snack on something, whole foods are always better.

Damn, thats tough, you have strict limitations on the level of physical exertion you can do. This means that your diet is really the only realistic way to manage your weight.

You mentioned you already eat healthy snacks but if you are still overweight, you have been eating more kcal than you use, over a long period of time. Tracking calories is not fun but have you tried it? Its not something you need to do forever, just long enough to have an understanding of what you need to eat.

Thanks for sharing that story, we should all try to get to know our neighbours a bit Better.

The Antichrist!

Just like some billionaires already divested from AI
