Yeah. I was eating ~1500 calories every day for lunch from McDonald's, plus two big protein shakes (another ~1400 calories), plus a 4-egg scramble with vegetables every morning and a rice/beans/veggies/chicken dinner. Th

There's a lot of food on the menu I refuse to eat because it's far too gross. McDoubles are one of them. Should have mentioned that in my earlier comment – some taste preferences are involved.

Have you ever tried to eat that much? The whole point of my comment is that it's very difficult to "blow past 2k calories in a single sitting." Not that it's impossible – obviously McDonald's has a lot of high-calor

Actually, it's pretty hard to eat a whole day's worth of calories in a single meal. I know this because I've tried to, regularly, as part of a longer attempt to gain weight. If you're ordering at McDonald's, your be

How did you enable seamless mode? I'm using VirtualBox to run a Debian desktop with the Gala WM, but I can't get the seamless mode to work. (And I couldn't with Ubuntu, either.)

For an elaboration on your first answer, look up The Last Psychiatrist. Lots of interesting analysis of American society within the framework of narcissism. And to be honest I was convinced by a lot of his arguments, it's a very applic

Not sure what prompted the post, but this reminded me of one cool use of liquid helium: as a scintillator for particle experiments. Huh, I was going to comment that SNO+ was planning on using a mix of liquid helium and argon for its scintil

I think there's a typo in the createQty function: shouldn't it return (uint16 0) if n is less than 0, not greater? Otherwise, great article. This is exactly how I learned to program with Scheme: mosel the domain carefully, slowly

You may find both interesting! And I hope that my comment didn't/doesn't seem accusatory, I'm coming from a similar spiritual standpoint myself.

I switched to firefox dev tools a year ago (through the dev edition of firefox) and I absolutely love them, but the source map support has been really inconsistent. Sometimes it works, but almost always it doesn't :(

Ctrl-c and Ctrl-[ are my favorite -- once you remap caps lock to control (so that control is where it was when these interfaces were designed), you have a simple, 2-hand chorded escape with minimal stress on the keys. Does anyone here remap

What is a legal latino? Is it illegal to be a particular kind of latino? Seems dehumanizing and hence dangerous to be labeling people, not actions, as "legal" or "illegal".
