Thank you, I'll check out Murex.

Didn't the Spanish Flu (which was way more virulent) basically evolve in this way?

Are you using one of these exclusively? Which one have you chosen and why?

If you look up "covid vascular" you'll find plenty of references. Seeing how it affects most people with chronic conditions associated with such problems (hypertension, diabetes), I'm convinced it's a correct assess

I recall studies showing significant efficacy even in acute settings, which was slightly unexpected, at least to me.

It's also possible that viral disease dynamics are just like that, with one virus dominating at a time (amongst this class of highly contagious respiratory viruses).

Anyything that makes your immune system work properly will help, the reason Covid is even a subject is that there is a silent epidemic of immunocompromised people, a large number of which are unaware that they are - the kind of people who r

Agreed, I wonder how Guix can manage to work the same (does it?) as Nix if the language is not restricted in this way. (PS: I too would prefer parens over semicolons :))

Sugar: the bitter truth by Dr. Robert Lustig is an informative overview of the biological and societal effects of sugar https://youtu.be/dBnniua6-oM

It's more than that; sugar spiking your insulin regularly in an unnatural way (things way more sweet than our DNA is "trained" on, effects on gut microbiome, association with ultra-processed foods devoid of fiber, healthy fat

It's probable that the sweet taste is enough to cause some (modest, I'd guess), insulin secretion, but other than that there are not excess calories, so won't interfere with the normal functioning of the liver.

More likely the opposite, acknowledging sugar is majorly implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, chiefly alzheimer's.
735.
by lambdaba 5y ago
I just want to make a statement (which I'm willing to discuss): sugar is a recreational drug, not a food. We should be having it rarely, and always with be mindful that it's taxing our bodies, hence the need for breaks. Chronic us

oh course, if you're giving a system a break from overuse (which is the general rule with modern diets), it will work better!

Excessive visceral fat is related to insulin resistance, so it's a sign there's a disease process going on.

Try magnesium, inositol and possibly l-theanine for such issues.
739.
by lambdaba 5y ago
This is probably due in significant part to sucrose depleting magnesium, glucose metabolism in general uses more magnesium. Even if one doesn't quit sugar immediately, supplementing magnesium can be of great help.

It was Darch but this fits the bill as well, thanks!

This is it! Thank you!!

Having used this for about 30 minutes total, I can tell you this goes MUCH further than any Vim-inspired browser I've ever tried, and I (think) I tried them all. The window/buffer management in particular is very good, but UI-wise

Posting this from Vieb which I've been using for a few minutes. It looks like a pretty complete Vim UI implementation, down to splits, which work really well. Ironically textareas don't have a Vim mode, hopefully that's addre

Thank you, but this is not it. It was an end-user distro, just used Docker images instead of a normal package manager.

Thank you, insightful. Do you recall if diving in to NixOps internals and fixing bugs yourselves was necessary at some point? Did you have issues with incomplete coverage of AWS APIs?

by lambdaba 5y ago
Thank you! TF + Nix does seem to be the way for now. I don't see a better option anyway, hopefully NixOps gets some more energy put into it, I think it has great potential.
