   As a Western European, it's crazy to me that the public transportation and road systems are so fucked up in the US that 1) Kids need a car to go college 2) When buying a car, an important criteria is how heavy it is so that if it'

   Yes, I agree with most of what you say. I'm sorry if my comment came across as aggressive. I didn't want to offend anybody. And of course, if you've got a gluten allergy regular bread won't work for you. I know that nutr

   Yes, because there's also no scientific evidence to support these fad diets. Of course, somebody who has been eating like shit and then switches to a "keto" diet will lose weight and might feel better. Scientific evidence is

   I agree. Also bothers me that everything looks the same. People are afraid to try something new or go with their own style.

   I'm not anti-capitalist. But there's capitalsm and there's capitalsm. I think how the fruits of capitalism are distributed is insane, and no good can come from so few people having so much more than all the rest combined.

   Calling a guy a pedo is not the worst thing he has done. For example, there are many reports that there's sexism, racism and injuries at his companies, and he doesn't seem to care. He doesn't have to have any regard for the w

    The multi billion dollar vitamin industry disagrees. Kidding. Only half. I dislike this saying because it doesn't mean anything and just makes some VCs think they're saying something that sounds smart. There are frameworks that ge

    That's crazy that US law enforcement is storing genetic data about people they arrest. I understand that governments would store the data with consent from people, but without consent is not great...

    I can't wrap my head around that people defend one of the richest man alive while just hand-waving away his awful behavior and consequences of his actions. I can acknowledge that his companies have done some interesting things. But he

    I see, thanks. And I'm also assuming I would need to get some special license to sail a Narrowboat? As a non-UK citizen (EU/Swiss), do you think it could be complicated to get a Narrowboat and live on it for half a year or so?

    Ok, I'll bite. Which governments are you referring to? And how are they doing this? And how do you know of this?

    This is incredible! How easy is it to buy and register a Narrowboat? How does it work legally, can you register your home address to the boat?

    Yes, maybe. But they should see, based on my account history, that it's absolutely not a bot or fake account. And it's not like I review stuff every day, like 1 - 2 per month. It should be possible to only give 5 star reviews with

    What system are you referring to?

    Yes, that's what I ended up using, too! The goal for my project was just to build something as a side project (I was experimenting with Deno and Fresh at that time), not necessarily because I couldn't find an existing alternative.

    This is cool. As you said, my recommendation would be to not use ChatGPT to get the nutrition data, but use one of the databases that have good APIs such as USDA's Food Data Central [1]. This is domain where there's structured dat

    Would love to see an open-source version. Also, are you thinking of making a version that one could run locally with the command line?

    I'm sorry, I must have missed that. I'm not sure what non-gaming applications could take off, to be honest. Some ideas: - VR meetings in my opinion feel better than 2D Zoom calls - but I don't see companies buying VR headsets

    Well, at least if you live in the EU, soon, you'll be able to sideload apps to your iPhone (and I think also iPad) and probably this law will require them to do it for the Vision (Pro).
