Isn't it automatically a calorie-restricted diet if you are eating fewer calories than you normally would? FWIW I also have cut out grains but my weight is very stable, so it seems fair to assume I now just eat more of other things.

The idea is that the game code is running on the blockchain itself (not the rendering to cute kitties though), so there is no game server that can be shut down by the developers. So even if the game stops being profitable and the devs lose

I'm curious about how users of this system go about investigating FAIL scenarios that could result in your change being rolled back. How frequent are false positives? Can you override the decision?

Here's a healthy habit: whenever an app abuses notifications, revoke its permissions to grab your attention. At a minimum, disable notifications on the lockscreen. Consider disabling banner alerts if they are too disruptive or distract
