Yet you don’t have to use all of it, but it’s there if you need it.

This is why I never understood htmx. Vanilla react is pretty easy to get started with, you just create a root component and mount it to a DOM element. Maybe 10 lines of code. Then you can go as simple or as complex as you want without havin

Looking at the example on the front page, I don’t see how you can look at that and think it’s better than react.

Reasoning is also about processing facts.

No I’m connecting the dots. A couple days ago you got downvoted for saying Elon Musk is getting us to mars and that he’s a great man. Now you’re arguing about fasting and keto. If you want to deny it then fine, but I’d have to be an idiot n

We both know you’re trying to frame it as a hack. There’s no point in emphasizing fasting as much as you did if you didn’t think it was a significant improvement over traditional calorie restriction. So no, I don’t think a “similar or modes

You’re not wrong about breaking down fat via lipolysis but you’re wrong about the overall picture. Also, not sure what you mean by cardio stopping you from gaining weight. Cardio burns calories and you need to burn calories to lose fat. Any

You said “surely I’m missing something” so I explained it. I thought I made it pretty clear I wasn’t offering an opinion on the subject, just explaining it

It’s normal for people to feel less hungry after an intense run. Not everybody all the time but it’s normal. You’re stuff about obese people and joints isn’t relevant to this discussion on hunger.

Most communication isn’t a legal contract, and a lot of meaning is implicit, not just what is explicitly said. I’m not saying I agree or disagree with the statements you mentioned, but "wallowing in guilt over it would do nothing"

It’s not about fasting or even cardio, it’s about caloric restriction. Fasting reduces the calories you eat, and cardio increases the calories you burn.

I’ve actually found running decreases my appetite.

Technically yes but not for the reason you think. Muscle and fat are metabolically active, which means they burn calories just to stay alive. If you lose fat, guess what? Your body doesn’t need as many calories to survive. Another factor is

None of what you described is a scam. Time and again, I’ve found the people who are critical of dieting aren’t doing it right… Which is hard for me to wrap my head around since weight loss boils down to one factor, caloric restriction. You

Elon is trying to reinvent public transportation in a way that he profits from.

I'm not concerned with who used what and when. I'm talking about what people expect of AI. When you tell people that you're trying to create digital intelligence, they'll inevitably compare it to people. That's the

I'm reminded of AI hypesters complaining that people are constantly moving the goalposts of AI. It's a similar effect and I think both have a similar reason. When people think of AI they think of robots that can think like us. Tha

In that case, you defeated your own argument because if you dismiss historical democracies (which I agree with) then you’re left with modern democracies which haven’t existed long enough to compare with monarachy in terms of resilience. But

by CooCooCaCha 1y ago
The counter-argument is that even if you say democracy is sub-optimal, it’s certainly more stable than monarchy. Monarchy sounds good when you have a benevolent philosopher-king that does all the right things, but what if you get a bad king

I agree with everything you say except the “can’t get much worse” part. I think it can get substantially worse, and death is the primary mechanism that prevents power from centralizing on individuals forever. Every death is a mini-reset in

This is related to Marx’s concept of surplus value. That capitalism is based on most people being under-compensated for the full value of their labor so that someone else can be overcompensated for their labor.

Given that this website comes from a VC startup incubator I highly doubt it’s meant to refer to hacking security. I think it’s meant to mean the “move fast and break things” style hacking. Which basically means churning out code fast and pu

I'm convinced there are a large number of people, mostly in tech, that are unknowingly in a death cult because they think complex human systems can be boiled down to simple metrics and logic. And they get attached to this libertarian-t

What we’re really talking about is freedom. Freedom to do what you want with your time whether it’s relaxation or work, but on your own terms. When you have to work for an income that is a type of forced work, and generally speaking forced

This is one of the more rational comments. I’m really surprised there aren’t more comments expressing how insane this topic is. It’s absolutely insane that technology and productivity are increasing so rapidly, yet we’re talking about raisi

People will always yearn and wonder and imagine. Sure some people will spend their time fishing but a lot of people need things to strive for a and they will make things up or seek out others who feel the same way.

I’m glad the people in your country allow good things to happen. That’s definitely not the case in all countries and you need collective power to get nice things for workers.

Your last paragraph fascinates me because I think it’s true. There’s something about being told things directly that pushes people away, but a clever aphorism disarms us because it makes us feel smart for “getting it”. There’s something ins
