There's more than one way to lose weight. A lot of people in the keto subreddit have lost a lot of weight too. Anecdotal evidence doesn't prove that keto is broscience. There's plenty of studies on it, even in the very articl

This is partially why I mentioned keto, keto keeps your blood sugar level very even so you don't get hungry as much. I find eating once per day to be quite easy as long as I eat the correct ratio of fat/protein/carbs. Also I

1.) Start slow, you can start with something as short as 12hrs fasting (sleeping time counts) and just add an hour to that every week or two. Personally I added an hour as I get used to it. 14 hour fast and still not hungry yet? I'll a

This is a pretty fantastic writeup, short and simple on each topic with loads of sources. For those looking for something actionable, you may want to head to the reddit board for intermittent fasting. It's a good way to lower your calo

Exercise has a lot of great benefits even though it's effect on weight loss is rather minimal. One of the biggest reasons I personally work out is for the ability to learn faster. Exercise gives you more Brain Derived Neurotrophic Fact

Oh, thanks! I recommend it a lot too, so I guess it started partially into the video because I watched it again. Whoops. I love that channel. Entertaining, informative, and succinct. I've learned a lot from it.

Yep, a lot of the science behind "fat makes you fat" came from cherry picked data. "The Story of Fat: Why we were Wrong about Health" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5S6-v37nOtY Anecdotally I too am movi

Potatoes are high carb, and high carb makes most people fat. To be fair, bananas are high carb too. Also fat doesn't make you fat. A lot of people actually rapidly lose weight on a ketogenic diet with approx 70% of their food being hea

The unfortunate thing is currently prosthetics are much less nimble than real hands. I'd want to see a lot of improvements in that tech before I'd see them as a replacement. In the article she mentions she's had them for a ye

I'm sure it depends on where you live. I've moved around a lot. In the well funded city schools we got a pretty decent education. When I moved out to the country it went downhill a lot. I tried going to the middle of nowhere commu

Thank you, that's quite useful! I was doing some light reading on it so I just started with some simple articles, but perhaps they were over simplifying.

I was mistaken then. What I've read about it was somewhat incomplete from what people are saying here. That said there is absolutely no need to be such a jerk about it.

My understanding is you are always outspending on energy costs because of the energy inefficiency of personal computers for mining vs. a dedicated machine. So the chance of return would be more or less 0%. More like, "If I pay $5 for a

I am by no means an expert, but my understanding is that a personal computer isn't energy/heat efficient enough to make a profit from mining. It costs more in energy than you would make from the bitcoin. My friends who do some min

To be fair I live in a medium sized town in the southeast US near Chattanooga, TN. Things here tend to be cheaper. It's kind of funny, everyone here gets mad at paying $14 or so for IMAX. "Too much!" they say.

Heck, if I go on Bargain Tuesday it's $5.75 and you get a free popcorn with each ticket. It's a really nice theatre too. Regular price is $9.50, but that's still not much more.

Your phone logs when you turn it off and on. It can't log the difference in why you lost signal though. So this guy just says "See, my phone was on the whole time, but there was no signal at the work site..."

YMMV. But I do this when I sell cars. I try to be up front with every issue I can, and take loads of pictures. Not only does it save people time, but I can basically say, "Well, I've factored all these things in already" and

Imagine having to hold a seller's license in every state just to sell on eBay. A lot of people who sell on Amazon are also just 1 person businesses. It's a lot of extra paperwork, time, and cost for one person.
