I tried taking it for IBS for that reason. It worked! Kind of. The first few days after every dose it had the opposite intended effect so it wasn’t worth it.

I took it for a bit as a non-overweight person and the minimum dose was absolutely enough for me to have a hard time eating enough to maintain my weight.

I guess perhaps the better conclusion would be that maybe dosages should be adjusted so that people don’t lose weight too quickly?

Turn the carbon into diamond. Not jewels - let’s make some diamond houses. That’d be neat.

Transmission isn’t free. Also, there are usually only a few really heavy snowfalls a year. The rest would presumably melt off pretty quickly, though I’m no expert.

Tangential, but I’m just going to point out that severe autism is absolutely debilitating. I think many people have only known people with what used to be called Asperger’s and don’t realize just how bad it can get. My cousin with it needs

I asked o1 to make an entire save system for a game/app I’m working on in Unity with some pretty big gotchas (Minecraft-like chunk system, etc) and it got pretty close to nailing it first try - and what it didn’t get was due to me not

I imagine Black Forest Labs (Flux) is doing alright, at least for now. I still feel like they’re missing out on some hanging fruit financially though. But yeah, you’re not going to make any money making yet another LLM unless it’s somehow s

I it’s not like he shied away from them before. I think he’s starting with a high number to force concessions from China, but we’ll still have some amount of more broad tariffs in the end. Our health system is so screwed up it’s no wonder t

There’s probably a way to turn it off but I hate how it auto opens the last file now.

Oh hell, is that what I’m supposed to do to open the damned things?

You’ll find anecdotal “evidence” for all sorts of stuff when it comes to cancer. Some of it is just woo, others might just work for really specific genetic mutations, etc. Fasting in general has been known for quite a while but (and I’m far

I had a photoshoot scheduled with a young Somali man. He was late by over an hour, and I had another shoot after so I had to cancel. I rescheduled and told him if he was late for the next shoot I wouldn’t be rescheduling again. He said he

Back in 2008 my sister would easily make $200 a night working at Red Lobster in a town of 80,000. That was just the tips, not wages. Prices have probably doubled now, along with the tips. Very few waiters are making as little as you say. Ju

As someone who just quit doing high school senior photography last year I think it’s a lot more simple: They don’t have time. I can’t tell you how incredibly hard it is to schedule (and especially reschedule) sessions with many of them. A l

I think you’re close but not quite there. There’s a significant part of the population that think we’re all born the same - the old blank slate theory. Therefore, everything good or bad that you do ultimately comes from external forces. If

The sanctions are nothing most Americans ever think of, apart from maybe Cuban cigars being exotic or hard to procure - though I feel like that was more of a thing 30+ years ago. The goal was Cuba was openly hostile to the US and so we swun

It seems that’s just the way things go with disruptive technologies. It’s a gold rush and you don’t want to be left behind.

If you have the camera focus on the person, they'll be in perfect focus. If you then have the camera focus on the ocean, it'll be in focus. Our eyes work the same way. Of course, just like the camera's aperture can be set o

They almost certainly did DPO it, so that would have an effect. It was also probably just trained more on professional photography than cell phone pics. I’ve found it odd how there’s a segment of the population that hates a shallow depth of

Just because something won’t affect people doesn’t mean they can’t be allowed to think it’s morally wrong.

My experience driving in rural France was that nearly every intersection was a roundabout and it slowed things down dramatically. Many, many times I was the only driver within sight. Surely one of the two directions is more used and a coup

My Breville toaster oven has three beep settings: incredibly loud, ear-splittingly loud, and off. It still runs the fan when the timer is done for a while too, so there’s no good indication there. So annoying.

Right, but we’re talking about people that aren’t necessarily obese using it. That said it’s not like there aren’t widely used drugs that mess with reward centers. Stimulants and antidepressants both come to mind.

I’ll never forget, during the early-ish stages of COVID, NPR (All Things Considered, I believe) discussing the lab leak hypothesis, which they framed as a conspiracy theory. They said that China denied it as a possibility. Without a single
