Do whatever feels good and keeps your energy up and mind sharp. You may experience a significant positive shift with a new diet but when you feel like it's not helping, or even hurting, don't blindly stick to it - re-evaluate and

I've tried both ends of the spectrum (hard paleo/keto, and vegan) and find, that, n=1, for me, mostly plants, a small amount (10-20% roughly) super-nutrient dense, high quality animal, works the best long-term. There are benefits

Nutrient density and bioavailability are two very different things. Kale is extremely nutrient dense but as the parent poster has pointed out, the anti-nutrients [1] reduce the absorption of said nutrients. You can take kale into a lab and

Grass fed animals, typically beef. The nutrient density is off the charts. When I eat dessicated beef liver (available in pill form), the code just flows out of me... It's not cheap unfortunately, feedlot beef and chicken muscle meat i

You have already, probably multiple times. The 737 model is proven over 50 years of service. The Max has issues, for sure, and I will be weary of that as well as the upcoming 777X, but I wouldn't hesitate to get on any prior 737 or oth

On paper, no. We're all insured by the FDIC/NCUA up to $250k per institution (or account? I forget). In reality, I think the systemic risk means everyone has deposits on the line as the FDIC can't cover multiple bank failures

The distribution problem has been solved for many years - travel agents were disrupted in the first wave of the web. Hipmunk tried to create a friendlier UX than what Kayak, Expedia, et. al were trying to provide, but it wasn't a step

That's good old negotiation and group purchasing there. No fancy tech required, just a relatively performant CRUD app and integration into travel GDS (reservation) systems.

Out of interest: What's your data source for this? The GDSs have most things locked down unless you are a huge customer, and Google/ITA seems super expensive.

EDIT: Oops, there's only one trim motor on the NG. Both trim switches must be actuated on the yoke switches though. But the input cutoff switches still work the same way I originally stated. Not sure about the Max's # of trim moto

One question I've had is why Boeing changed the design of the stab cutout switches from the 737NG from a pair of switches - the right side switch that disabled the autopilot control of trim and the left side that disabled the trim moto

Inattention to autopilot modes has killed before. So much focus is put on pilots recognizing and confirming flight mode annunciator mode changes (such as change of autopilot or autothrottle state) has been put into place to stop that kind o

SFO has ground radar systems (ASDE-X/ASSC) [1] which allows ground and tower controllers to see potential conflicts on taxiways and runways. Pure speculation, but I don't think that these systems' conflict logic take into acc

And this is the essential problem with society today - the lack of acknowledgement that there is such a thing as civic duty, or the greater good. It's all about personal advancement regardless of the externalized costs. In the words of
