Big part of my job is convincing the bosses we don't need X new shiny thing... we still waste years chasing random tech that doesn't benefit the customer at all though

Discord is much, much better IMO and I've never enjoyed Telegram. Probably is better for the general public though

I’ve read that there are limits to how much weight you can lose per week, no matter how much you restrict your caloric intake.

I've been fasting here and there and I'm down from 130Kg to 98Kg in about 5 months. Apparently your body handles that sense of deficiency better if you fast vs multiple small meals. Something about that large meal letting you experience the "I'm so full" feeling.

There's a study in the NEJM where they tested 3 meals a day vs one. The participants ended up at the same weight at the end, but with smaller waists and less belly fat for one meal a day.

It's all interesting albeit frustrating stuff...

I might be remembering the results wrong as I can't find the details in that study, I'm going off this video mainly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thgVz3837l0

If I'm wrong about the results it seems the other benefits make it worthwhile anyway, preventing diabetes etc

You're right that it is depressing how divided people are lately. Being more objective and less of a hater might help fix that.

It won't be a good 6 months for people that bet their retirements, or houses, or savings on the stock market either. Maybe they shouldn't have done that. They are both zero sum games. Both have scams. What's the difference?

I may be pro crypto with a long position, but I still told all those around me to be weary when they were all wanting to buy the peak. None of them were interested at all when BTC was at $4k. Human nature.

Just like it's human nature for the haters to jump out of the woodwork with "I told you so" every time the market wanes, which was my point. They loved it the last go round

I don't see any problem with people selling their work / art however they want. Looks like he's sold a few for $20~ each, that's a bit different to the dumb cartoon monkey fad.

IMO being completely anti-crypto is a waste of energy
