No kidding. This is a quintessential example of what is wrong in research. If you were to just read the paper you’d definitely come to the conclusion that the researchers want to make—that monkeys dance much like we do. Then you go and watc

Yeah. I'm definitely going to follow you for more updates. It will be interesting to slowly learn from you via osmosis as I've been interesting in developing browser games for a long time. Seriously impressive to see what today&#x

This is the most interesting thing I've seen in a while. Props man. Good work.

It's pretty insane to spend 31 months building something like this when the market is so crowded. Hope it was a spare time/weekend thing. Thought it was just a joke so didn't consider signing up; however, product looks really

I'm sure he knows his stuff, and is venturing into this knowing that there's somewhat of a "hard problem" to be solved here; serious proponents of AI like Kai-Fung Lee have stated that AGI may never be possible. The fact

I suppose so. As someone who hasn't used GraphQL, isn't most of the appeal in GraphQL attributable to the fact that you don't have to manually write all these rest endpoints? In that way, I don't see GraphQL as irrelevan

I find Vxiaocheng's use of QR to be super interesting and something that I'd think is worthwhile to work on; QR reading is now native in android + iphone camera apps and this is an itch I've been looking to scratch for a long

Ha I've been trying to find one for forever. Can't even find cheap non-fda approved clones from alibaba/aliexpress. Would love to hear if anyone has made some headwind on this. It seems odd that only diabetics are allowed acc

This is a neat project well-executed. Most of the trends I see on the list I've already heard about. Is there a way to surface up and coming trends?

This is confusing to me, would love if someone helped elucidate the details. My previous understanding was that bluelight is harmful because bluelight visually interferes with the body's circadian rhythm by leading the body to believe

Just went ahead and bought a series 5 Apple Watch because of this comment. I have a long tumultuous history with sleep apnea and have been desperately trying everything to figure out how to improve it. I typically sleep 10 hours per day (th

Not sure. I'm in my 20's and have done well enough in industry (programming) and with side projects to not have to worry about making money any more. Now that basic needs are met, the question is how to spend my time in the ways t

It’s just another challenge in life like all the other ones. Once you’ve started dipping your toes in you slowly realize the state of homeostasis starts to feel a bit perverse. Obviously it feels good to be fed, but, like in other areas of

Can someone enlighten me as to why a study such as this one may be undertaken without a control group? I mean, what's the point? If the study ends up landing on some exciting conclusions, not having a control group creates more questio

Long term or repeated fasting should actually decrease your body's metabolism rate; which is a good thing if you want to age slower. (I.e. think about species who have slow metabolisms, turtles, for one, who live very long lives). I do

Are you supplementing with electrolytes? You need magnesium citrate + salt + potassium. Without that I can't achieve fasts longer than 48 hours.

Interesting read! It's also worth noting that circadian rhythm based eating habits (i.e. timing meals in the morning, or at least the bulk of one's caloric intake earlier in the day), are important for more than just weight loss.

That is so true. Something like this would be so enabling for someone like me who has always had serious interest in complicated domains (physics, complexity theory, etc..), but probably neither the mental facilities or excess time to fully

Yeah. In such a sense we could just imagine this potentially being one of the largest paradigm shifts we've ever experienced as a species. I guess my bias is that I feel like my own personal mind-map or world lens is my own personal co

To me it's just unfathomable to imagine what the future of humanity looks like if everyone has superhuman intelligence available at their fingertips. I imagine we will no longer be differentiable based on our articulacy or own personal

It would have been nice if he would have included a citation for that claim. I have wanted this to be true for a long time!

Where have you read that CBD increases the amount of deep sleep? I have looked into this quite extensively, and never found any information that suggested that.

Sensationalist headline. This totally ignores the fact that not all of web traffic is transnational; a sizable percentage of it is—surprise surprise—for leisure, and in those cases there is no substitute for interacting with an interface di
