   I see you did not read the book - if you go to the notes section you'll find references to all the technical papers that support each chapter of the book. I suffer from a severe mental illness and following a ketogenic therapy has been

   My approach these days is to follow a meditation mantra: 1. Slow down - the moment I'm aware my mind is no longer quiet and alert because of some trigger (internal or external) 2. Stop suffering - I do a quick body scan for the associa

   I think the main issue is the unhealthy up and down insulin spikes caused by modern high carbs diets.

   My ability to focus deeper and for a longer period of time increased substantially - I'm afraid my IQ is still the same ;)

   Thanks. Is that because one can get the basal rate from each weight plateau and then estimate the calorie deficit required to reach a certain weight target? I guess the protein and strength training will make sure you keep your muscle mass

   It's interesting how mind wandering can be analysed from different perspectives: 1. In meditation the main goal is precisely to free ourselves from the monkey mind that seems to be the cause of all suffering 2. In neuroscience mind wa

   Spoken too early - I’ve skimmed the blog and it looked like a pretty thorough and likely more relevant analysis than this post.

   Some ketogenic therapy experts theorize that a possible cause for those plateaus is due to the body reducing its metabolism due to what it thinks is an abnormal calorie deficit, entering survival mode - then after a period of adaptation it

    Thanks for the insight - I’ll do some research on that.

    I don't intend to use the model to predict more than a couple of weeks - the fact that it has no data to predict more than that is not that a big deal for this use case. Not very important, but the weight loss curve usually decelerates

    I actually do that frequently to comply with my ketogenic diet - take a photo of the macro nutrients quantities, calories from the nutrition facts table on the food package and use ChatGPT or some other LLM to calculate the estimated calori

    I think most of the classical statistical methods for curve fitting happen to be some kind of variant of using least squares on a manually chosen parameterizable function - you'll have to chose between a linear, polynomial, exponential

    I wold love to join - I sarted reading the book a while ago but never finsihed. Liked a lot what I have read so far though. Sent you an email.

    Being genuinely interested in others seems like a life lesson many of us should internalize from an early age. Thanks for this deep insight :)

    Makes intuitive sense, thanks for the insight. A second layer blockage for the secondary particles wouldn't have to be as dense or am I missing important physics? (I guess a lot of gamma radiation would still reach this second layer so

    You don't need to block gamma radiation completely to increase the electronics reliability :) Maybe you could improve the system availability considerably by a bit of gamma radiation protection combined with some more parallelism of th

    Actually this is a good question - there's a lot of control engineering research on Data-Driven Control Systems. Check Steve Brunton youtube channel, he is one of the leaders in this area: https://youtu.be/gb_C9LcjDSI?s
