Sounds horrible. Why don’t people just learn how to fast? Prebiotic fiber while fasting feeds gut bacteria so you won’t feel overwhelming hunger. Electrolytes/mineral-salt stop “fasting headaches.” With prebiotics and drinking tea

I’m bearish after the SEC aggressively went after LBRY token while not caring what FTX was doing. Any useful case with ledgers being used in anti-censorship communication can be criminalized by the SEC. Way around this is not use cryptocurr

Best trick IMO is to take prebiotic fiber while fasting. That way your gut bacteria gets fed and doesn’t get desperate to tell your brain you’re starving. Personally I don’t feel ketogenic state is reached from 16 hours. Feels like I need

There’s probably a huge market of people that haven’t kept up with the AI boom, and they don’t know free tools exist for this. HN isn’t that market. I never used it for watermarks but llama-cleaner is one - it worked pretty well at removin

You're right - I should have said founder or business owner instead of CEO for that option.

Let's do a poll: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34507665 I'm curious how many people are starting or want to start a business here. I always assumed the percentage was pretty high.

This 100%. People are acting like HN has stricter moderation than reddit. These people must not hold any views reddit tries to censor. I make a lot of anti-vaxx comments, and on HN my account has never been shadowbanned. I'm able to

The extremely unpopular link-banning policy makes sense in this context. He wanted something to anger people right before the poll so it’s guaranteed he gets voted out.

Musk supporter here, downvoted proof here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33985682 I’m in agreement with all of you. This is some BS that goes against all the ideals of an open internet. He’s not just being petty by

FDA has as much credibility as the SEC. SEC prosecuted LBRY token, while letting FTX steal people's money to fund fraudulent covid studies for the establishment. [1] Those studies encouraged vaccination, which allowed the covid vaccine

Musk has repeatedly said that inciting violence will be banned while other forms of speech will be allowed. So I think he has a coherent ideology, but it still depends on a judgment call. When Kanye says he "loves Nazis" one coul

My point was if vaccinated could spread covid, and that paper shows the viral load is just as high so they can. Yes vaccinated with pre-alpha, alpha, and delta have faster viral clearance... but what about Omicron which is 99% of cases now?

That's a pretty big claim that inoculation prevents long-term side effects. The viral load is the same between unvaccinated and vaccinated who get infected. [1] So if the amount of virus is similar, I'd assume the potential for d
