> That is in direct contradiction to your previous sentence. No, losing the higher absolute amount of body fat is better. While being sustainable healthy. This isn't in any way a contradiction if you're mathematically literate.

Ok how do you "intervene" with muscle? Do you surgically transplant it? It's a thing that exists. Genetic differences are not interventions. Those are also simply things that exist. An intervention is a change in treatment or

>You lose fat in your arms and your shoulders don't need to be quite as strong. This is literally describing spot reduction of fat.

Playing games has been a method to motivate learning a language for decades, but I'm not sure why having software produce hallucinated text would ever help learning a language you don't yet understand.

Because they're busy trying to survive. Most can't afford to take time off to protest regularly.

No this is absurd. The goal for anyone obese is to lose as much fat as sustainably possible. For any given rate of weight loss, losing a higher proportion of body fat is always better. This notion of "balanced" healthy muscle is o

It's more likely to happen if your deficit below TDEE is greater than 500 Calories. If you're 500 below BMR, you're almost definitionally losing weight at an unsustainably unhealthy rate, like much greater than 1% of your bod

Spot reduction of fat is a myth.

"Muscle" isn't an intervention. "Building muscle" is an intervention and has extremely well-documented mechanisms that have a causal role in improving health.

The reason you want to keep all your muscle on a cut is because that means a higher proportion of the weight that you do lose will be fat tissue. This is the strictly superior outcome.

From listening to interviews, it seems like after completing a full undergrad's worth of math courses, they plan to expand to CS and math-adjacent fields (probably physics at least?).

Math Academy is really all you need. 30 minutes per day is enough, though more time will mean faster progress.

It's a numbers game, man. You have a base rate. Start sending out an application per day. Eventually you'll find you can do 2 per day, 3 per day, etc. One day you'll have sent out 100s of applications and get proportionally m
