Same here. We just started using it and everyone really likes it so far. Much better than Skype. I've tried Slack and didn't really care for it. I realize MSFT is mimicking the Slack style in Teams, but I just didn't real

Yes, but those people are taking it because they have a specific, immediate need to use the energy. Starches are quick energy, so it's fine for these people to use because it's being put to immediate use and will not end up slosh

Yes and no. I'd say there is a difference between managing and fixing. All the current treatments by doctors are surrounding management. I do fully believe that Type 2 can be fixed in almost everyone with enough time on the prop

Yes, fats slow the absorption rate of carbs so that makes sense that you will see a longer, protracted amount of time for the elevated blood sugar levels. You don't get the same spike and subsequent crash because it's more drawn

There are some healthy and natural oils, but yes the vast majority of the oils we use are cheap, processed garbage. The real issue is that our bodies aren't designed to consume, for example, vegetable oil in mass quantity because the

All true, except the last part. Sugars and starches do not have a higher energy density. Fats are approximately 9 calories per gram. Everything else (proteins, sugars, starches, and carbs in general) are around 4.

"...based on highly individualized carbohydrate restriction and nutritional ketosis" That's really the key to what is fixing the diabetes. And it's just a brief mention in the article. Nothing else about the nutritio

I have always kept it simple. A storage array in JBOD (non-raid) setup. I buy two of whatever drive(s) will contain the duplicated data and just do a clean mirror using whatever backup software you desire. I happen to use 4TB HGST drives

That's an extraordinarily disingenuous take on that comment. They were clearly referring to the decision to mess with the code in this way at all, not the actual content of what was being displayed on screen. The point was obviously

This article got me wondering...how is the law structured around this sort of thing? Generally speaking, it's highly illegal to dig up and open a grave since we generally have respect for a person's final resting place and this h

Yes, yes it should. At least that's what I would expect if they were going for transparency. The only thing that would make sense is if On2 (previously known as Duck Corproration) was actually involved in internet search. It was not

IANAL but it seems to me the mental workflow of determining the legality of all this is definitely not what I think it should be. For the non-citizen, it seems clear to me the judge's determining that there is no standing to even raise

Indeed. In Neil DeGrasse Tyson's version of "Cosmos" there is a great illustration where he says that if we visualize the entire history of the universe as being scaled to one calendar year then every human being that has ev

I suspect this is limited to economics and the social sciences. There is absolutely no way this holds up in the natural sciences like math, physics, etc. People forget the original name for what we call economics was "political econom

I have two problems with this approach to cost control. Neither is concerning the potential loss of jobs (or at least the lack of need for additional hires). First, I don't think it will be more convenient. Sure, it is much more conv

Oh, I agree that it's contributing to the problem. Or at the absolute minimum, it's not helping. But it's funny. And that was all I was saying, really. As for your larger point - yes, the online trolling is bad. People un

Never understood why people use the phrase reverse sexism or reverse racism. That sort of implies that only men are capable of sexism or only whites are capable of racism. Not picking on your comment, but it got me pondering that phrasing

Take a close look at the chosen Tweets in the article. None of them technically levy an accusation or claim that needs to be proven by him . They are almost all formed as questions. The few statements that exist are opinions (i.e. &qu

Yes, but my phrasing was specifically mass murder. In terms of genocide, I agree. But that list explicitly excludes non-genocide mass murders. In terms of the Chinese Great Leap Forward, if you exclude the policy/famine based deaths

Precisely! 66% of Millennials don't know what Auschwitz is and 40% don't know that 6 million Jews died in the Holocaust based on a recent study. This is astounding. Even more insane is that the overwhelming majority of society (

This is a good law, but I'm genuinely curious...is this really such an issue? Personally, I can't remember the last time (maybe ever?) having this issue. Maybe I don't have a lot of subscriptions. Maybe I don't cancel

First world problems, indeed. That being said, I can't criticize anyone who commented on the article format or method of delivery because as soon as I saw it, I immediately shut the page.
