To add to this: meal habits are important. Try eating 20% slower and more mindfully. Note how full you feel at any given moment, and stop when you're 80% full.

Half stevia half sugar. You can use about 2g sugar per cup, which is 8 calories, and have it taste like you used 5-10g sugar. Once down to this level, unless you're having 10+ cups per day, there are far more important calorie sources

Those sauces sound good. The alfredo sauce is actually really delicious though, it's become one of my favourite meals.

It's not victim blaming to say saving money on discretionary purchases might improve your financial status and therefore quality of life. This is true regardless of disability status, life situation, etc. If you don't think that&#

It's infuriating in the same way that "move more, eat less" is infuriating to obese people. It's infuriating because it doesn't pan out in practice for a lot of people trying. However, the advice is still sound to s

How do those who move often (or at least a few times in their lives) manage to re-establish a network in the areas they move to? I think a lot of the reason people are reluctant to move for better opportunities on paper is the fear of the s

While metabolic health is almost certainly related to intelligence, what makes you think it's the defining factor? Wouldn't that mean all diabetics were less intelligent than non-diabetics? Also, almost all children have better me

This works to some extent, but does not account for consciousness. A mind, at the very least a moment of experience, is a coherent whole. Your left and right visual fields are bound together. Thinking of neurons as entirely discrete units m

They can be used as evidence, though they don't definitively prove anything (Popper style). What you stated is basically post-modernism in a nut shell, but the problem with post-modernism is there's only a limited number of parsim

Natural selection, combined with a limited number of ways of fitting all the observations together into one or even a few coherent wholes means the representation correlates well enough with the external world so as to confer reproductive f

One can make inferences based on sensory input and a nervous system attuned to the environment over millions of years of evolutionary shaping.

"all worlds are private worlds" means that all of our experience are necessarily private - I don't have access to your world simulations. The delusion is that we have access to the external world directly. So, breaking throug

This doesn't qualify reality as a shared illusion, it qualifies our experience of it as a private illusion, with shared/overlapping characteristics. It's not the pragmatic, common-sense way of interpreting our experience of t

I linked the wikipedia article to show the main two competing theories. I don't see how direct realism could possible be the case, though, given what we know about perception. > I also don't see any answer in the quora article

Everything is a hallucination, since everything is an internal representation ([1] direct vs indirect realism). The real question is why do these hallucinations seem consistent enough to generate a shared world/consensus reality. I thi

I wonder if this strategy would work with other sorts of abstract problems. The consequences of addiction seem abstract, until they're not, for example. Maybe envision yourself taking actual life threatening poison everytime you think

Of course it does. DNA plays a large role in a person's life including their health risks. You'd want to your doctor to be honest with you about what they're putting in your body, wouldn't you?

Here's the thing though: if we actively do something to stop carbon production, we will also be losing economic wellbeing. Developing nations will be hit harder by this cutback, too. The question is is the trade-off worth it, relative

You can judge your programs as good or bad despite being the programmer. God doesn't judge morality how we judge. I think God's judgement might be more akin to how a programmer might judge which program to enter in a competition,
