I work with these systems in my day job, and yes, if any one wants to work on this problem I would love to be a part of it.

You aren't wrong, but keeping things to an 8-hour window makes it easy to stay within the right calorie range, especially if you pay attention to macros.

Doesn’t this ignore the vast number of systems between us and the visible star?

Does that hold true for something so far away? The number of objects that might pass through our line of vision only once during our life time seems as if it would uncountable.

The point I was trying to make is that choosing an optimum should be centered around the education of the world's children. Standard business hours are really a case of "well, we've always done it this way so why should we ch

I'm a native speaker that grew up and lives in the U.S. People use it all the time. I don't have any scientific research papers available to show you, but I promise you - this is a common expression.

This will be interesting to watch. I think this is a necessary and welcome development - but I also believe it will handicap smaller teams and reward the big players. The companies that have the resources to stand up payment systems will do

I agree fully, but in general, suicide isn't a conclusion reached by completely logical thought. Sadly, there are usually other factors at play negatively influencing the thought process.

People didn’t have access to calories the way we do now. Lectins might play a role, but the number issue is too many calories. Until a person recognizes that and takes action on it they will never lose weight.

The actual culprits are calories. The list of food you listed certainly conforms to that simple theory.

If you want to play steam games or Nintendo games this isn’t the device for you. If you want to play Playdate games then this is your best bet. In other words, apples and oranges.

> End users have to live with these choices, so we get to decide what is a flaw and what is not. This is true, but it isn't some collective decision. Something you consider a design flaw others might see as a design win.
