The kind I've iterated on for years to maximize my body. I wish I had a good answer, but it's similar to exercise. The best food for you is the one that works for you. I also highly recommend no-food (don't try to twist this)

It's all posturing. Why wouldn't it be? Leadership is all about "leveraging great people" right? So it makes sense to keep up the appearance if it means an extra X% output. And that's not even considering the manage

> good food Everyone thinks they eat good food. Food is the number one physical measurable input into our bodies. So it boggles my mind that nutrition isn't the most studied subject, alongside maybe the study of living a fulfilling

No joke. The font on my mom's phone is so large that buttons were "missing" from her parking app. I told her she had to be wrong, until I saw it myself. And that's also on a newer model galaxy note (big screen). She&#x27

I agree, my actual point was to point out the clear dislike of Google here. I only used to astroturfing comment as a mode of comparison, not to actually suggest it was the reason. But I agree, astroturfing allegations are not productive.

For whom? The real problem is that not all valuable paths can come to the same bottleneck. Med student? Well, the SAT might be a good indicator of how successful you'll be at completing a medical program in the US. Same thing for law.

Thanks! First we simplified the location problem as much as possible, including only serving jobs in the US, for now. Then we zoomed out on the resolution so that all jobs in a town or region have the same corresponding IDs. The search requ
