One criticism I have heard of the data collection around this wet market is that from the beginning, chinese officials rules out a lab leak. Not because the data said so, but because it would look bad for them. So this has cause a lot of da

Serious Eats did a taste test between home grown and store bought eggs. They found that if they added food coloring to the store bought eggs to make the color more orange like the home grown eggs, that taste testers were just as likely to p

They have very specific baskets of goods and methodologies that they publish details on when changed. And it is done by an independent groups of government employees with lots of eyes, both public and private looking at every detail of what

Or just take them away using imminent domain.

We can take land away from people to build a football stadium using imminent domain. Seems like water for the entire state would be a much more reasonable use of imminent domain.

I would assume they want the identities so they know who to investigate more closely. If you are commenting on a piracy sub-reddit, you are probably doing some torrenting.

That argument has been attempted quite a lot for this type of case. Specifically for torrent downloading cases where people try to argue that someone else used their computer. I don't think it usually works as a defense.

I think more likely our modern food system is causing this. We have all these calorie dense foods and methods of processing them that make them more and more delicious and calorie dense. Take ice cream for example. It needs to be over-sweet

I think anyone can do it, barring some serious medical reasons. But my point is, for some it is very easy, others not so much. I say this as someone who could drop 30 lbs easily with diet and exercise when I was younger, but now find it muc

Of course not. But one person could eat 10 kg of food and gain 5 lbs, while you eat 10 kg of food and gain 4 lbs all else being equal. And yes, you can become overweight eating the same thing as someone else simply by having a more efficien

I'm in favor of a corporate death penalty. In cases where a company is found guilty of gross negligence leading to terrible disasters and loss of life, give a jury the option to give the death penalty. All equity holders AND debt holde

You are assuming that everyone the spoofer contacts is going to know that grandma is a verified user and so this can't be her. Of course, the vast majority of people would not give it a second thought and so this would have no effect o

Myocarditis was only found to be slightly higher in 12-17 year olds with the moderna vaccine. The Pfizer and others did not. Presumably because Pfizer is a lower dose. But of course, this is all moot because myocarditis is usually mild and

Yes. It boggles my mind that the simple fact that the spike protein seems to cause the myocarditis and all the anti-vaxers can't seem to put 2 and 2 together that a full on infection of COVID all over your body is going to be orders of

Sure, you can always start cutting until you lose weight, but how much you have to cut and how difficult it will be to do so is all a part of it. I can easily drop 20 lbs in a few months by cutting. But it is not easy and as of yet, it has

No, I think you need to realize that someone who is overweight could literally be eating the same or less than you and working out the same or more than you and still become overweight. That's all I'm trying to get across. You sim

Then you misunderstand. Usable calories is your calories in if your body was 100% efficient. Some of that food will simply pass all the way through and end up in the toilet. I would suspect that skinny people who seem to not gain weight no

Of course, but the point is, reduce their intake by how much? And for how long? And does everyone function well long term in a calories deficit? Like I said before, running a marathon is simple, just run and don't stop running until yo

No obese person is claiming they are breaking the laws of thermodynamics. What they are claiming, either accurately or not, is that the rules of thumb and assumptions used to estimate their calories in and out are not giving them very accur

Yes, tracking calories and measuring results does work, but I have found it to be an ever moving target. The more weight I lose, the more I have to restrict and/or the harder I have to work to burn the same amount of calories. And it c

by jjeaff 4y ago
Yes, that is what I was referring to. Although I think it was though to have more to do with the dramatic weight loss rather than the increase in physical activity or caloric restriction. 1200-1500 calories is a very reasonable daily restri

by jjeaff 4y ago
I think it has more to do with how fast you lose it than how few calories you eat. The Biggest Loser contestants ate 1200-1500 calorie diets and still had abnormally low BMR even 5-10 years out.

Yes, but how much will it go down? Will it go down proportionally? What more and more studies are finding is that it goes down very significantly and can stay very low for many years, making it near impossible to keep weight off. The "

See, you are a perfect example of what I was talking about. You seem to know just enough to be very confident in what you are saying, but you are very, very wrong. Another user in an above thread lays out some of the minutia that comes into

I'm glad to see there is more research getting publicity for things like this. There are a lot of people out there that have never dealt with trying to lose a lot of weight who think it's all just as simple as "calories in an
