The point isn't to eat what cavemen ate, it's to look at what their bodies were optimized for and eat things with similar components. Dairy is a very good source of saturated fat, especially for a vegetarian like me.

I've found the fat hypothesis - 'fat makes you fat' - to be false, or at least not to apply to me. I am not exactly anti-carb - I eat potatoes, and a little rice - but I have been eating a diet that I guess you could call 'Paleo 2.0' for t

Offensive and illegal are distinct concepts. Being offensive isn't against the law - if it were, there are plenty of racial supremacists who are far higher priority arrests than some kid playing Facemash.

No, they wouldn't. They might be more accessible, even more effective, but they wouldn't be more credible. In any case, I'd appreciate knowing specifically which parts you thought were condescending, since I wasn't trying to be, and it's n

I'm suggesting that some of them are. Are you suggesting otherwise? My suggestion is backed up by video footage.

Given that this was clearly months in the making, the timing (just as reelection campaigning is about to start) is, uh, auspicious. That said, good riddance.

>It shouldn't be "they kill us and dance in their streets, we kill them and dance in ours". This is an invalid equivocation. Their 'dancing in the streets' is after killing civilians, and being glad that bin Laden is dead is not even c

The point of that part of my comment wasn't to issue a who-was-busiest challenge (though I'm pretty sure I'd win such a challenge, against either the OP or any of the profs I was TAing for), but to say that long hours grading and regrade re

Trevor (or someone else), could you explain this note? >Function calls can be used as default values for parameters. What can I do in 1.1.0 that I couldn't do in 1.0.1? In 1.0.1, I just did the following: coffee> x = 0 0

Okay, fair enough. I shouldn't have taken that sentence out of the original context, which said "By how fun they are." Or maybe I just totally misunderstood palish's point; actually rereading, that seems more likely than not. Apologies.

All (but not only) people with good people skills and zero productivity would be motivated to say this. Edit: I think I might have misunderstood what palish meant by "By how fun they are." to exclude productivity and focus entirely on pers
