The response is to an article about low carb diets sending diabetes patients into "remission". It's hard not to make the connection.

Type 1 and Type 2 are completely different diseases. They present similar symptoms -- which is why they're both called "diabetes" --, but their underlying causes are different. Many T2 patients can control their blood sugar w

I'm glad you found a diet that works for you, makes you feel healthier, and has improved you QoL. But it's not a panacea, and it's certainly not a cure for type 1 diabetes.

From last year (July 2019), and no follow-up. As someone who has to deal with T1D every day and carefully monitors news about research, I guarantee you no endocrinologist is counseling their patients to try this. Cutting carbs can lead to l

All I want is something that lets me get an RSS feed of Instagram accounts I follow, by giving nothing except the URL or username. I've tried 4 separate services that all work at first, then -- a week, a month, an indefinite time in th

I'd be very interested to see how long this actually lasts. It's easy to keep what is essentially an ungoverned commune going for a "long music festival" length of time. Let's see how well it works over the course o

The alternatives would be the government not giving people a reason to riot. If we're at the point of debating which weapons are or are not allowed to be used on a civilian population, then the government has already failed in its most

Teachers' unions don't even have the power to get budgets big enough for teachers to not have to buy their own school supplies for students. Talk to me when police unions are weak enough that we can cut police department budgets b

One of the big problems is that processes and tactics that might be reasonable for a huge city like NYC or LA get picked up by smaller cities that probably don't need a more militarized police force. There's no reason East Podun

That may be Republicans' fear (I don't think it is, but for the sake of argument.) I doubt any Republican using that argument can point to a portion of the Constitution that says "less informed citizens can be arbitrarily den

There are instances of people initially thought of as simply witnesses to a crime becoming suspects and then being charged with that crime (or an associated crime.) The point of these videos is that in almost no case does talking to the pol

It's less about compassion and more about risk. Risk in the sense of the physical danger an officer goes into, but also in the sense that we are removing protections for the officer and holding them to a higher standard.

If we're saving it for later (but for some reason don't want it on Earth) we should just launch it into orbit around the Earth. Why waste the fuel to send it outside Earth orbit just to need it back later. Even if we wanted to use

> Its huge advantage is that it's built on the assumption that the user is trusted and the code isn't. In contrast most operating systems are designed on the assumption that code is absolutely trusted, but the user isn't.

Same. A site having a feed is much more likely to get consistent recurring traffic from me than a site I can only consume via social network posts.

Maybe in the first 6 months or so after writing it. After that, I occasionally go back through old code asking "what have you done for ME lately?" and an eye towards dragging it behind the toolshed and going "Ole Yeller"

True. We haven't confirmed a single other one yet, which is why actually finding one will be probably the most significant discovery humans ever make. But I would imagine that an interstellar civilization that has discovered thousands

Not unless it's released. Anything anyone creates is automatically under copyright whether they declare it or not. Of course, most people making amateur porn probably won't defend their copyright in court, which is de facto the sa

And the reason they didn't become huge problems like corona is because those warnings were listened to and proper responses were put in place. Our intelligence agencies also shared that info with the rest of the world, so other countri

Does anyone know how this works with other utils that use SSH protocol, like rsync? What about tunneling other services to or from a local host? I'd love to have fewer hosts to maintain and a smaller network/attack surface, but we

Just recording those things isn't sufficient. What if the person hasn't read the archive? What if they don't have the capacity to understand what they are reading in the archive? It's an old saying, "I can explain i

Did they make the text-banking app for Buttigieg, or merely sell them SaaS? Biden, Clinton, other Dem campaigns, and the DNC have all used Shadow's software.

Yes, as much as I can. And I click through articles to reward sites that provide one. If a site doesn't provide one, I may hit an article or two, but I'm much more likely to just get a summary from social media.

If you train your security on parallel lines, and I come in with circles, I've just defeated your security. Machine learning only learns how to categorize things into predetermined categories. If I come in with a novel category it&#x27

Like any good security protocol, this wouldn't be the only line of defense. A combination of adversarial clothing, makeup, hair style, and accessories would be used. And constantly evolving, making countermeasures harder. Security is a

Yes, but let's make sure IDs are easily attainable and that every eligible voter already has one , and then let's make them required to vote. Doing the last step without the prerequisites isn't going to increase democracy,
