I have been researching this as a hobby for several months now and have landed on a few "truths" which I will hold dear to me.

- The average human needs far more Omega-3 and far less Omega-6. Supplements of Omega-3 have been proven to help with inflammation (and heart disease, et al).

- Supplementing Omega-3 through fish oil or algae oil, etc. is proven to be effective, in a world where often times supplementation is not a substitute for diet.

- The Western world is less enraptured by spices and vegetables that are proven to reduce inflammation. I know this addresses your question, but does not answer it - there are many foods of this category. Turmeric, ginger, and maqui come to mind. This is one of many considerations for our higher prevalence of heart disease.

- Supplementing extracts of anti-inflammatory/antioxidant plants has been shown to improve oxidative status in controlled studies.

- Diets low in carbohydrates have been shown to reduce inflammation.

^ I would share links, but I have hundreds of bookmarks and I wouldn't really know where to begin. I'd suggest just starting with searches on Pubmed or other scientific bodies and letting your exploration grow organically. It's a bit of a journey of understanding, and a whole lot of "what seems to make sense". Much of this stuff can not be proven except through trial - the fact of the matter is that there are too many intricacies, unless you care to devote your life to understanding it.

There are sure to be a lot of surprises in terms of what we have taken as truths, along with their dubious conceptions.

You might find studies that are counter to what I've stated, or it might be that your body composition doesn't respond as impactfully to these things as mine has. I am open entirely open to the idea that there are misfires in much of the research I have held dear. Only within the past few years has there been a concerted push toward studies on low-carb diets and the effects of inflammation, but they generally seem to point to these very important truths.

I am crusading a bit because I've been struggling with depression and anxiety my entire life - it took 27 years for me to consider that my diet might be the culprit, and with these changes I have an entirely new outlook on life. I understand that not everyone has these battles, and so do not need to seek these solutions.

But for those that do or must, it's been such a dramatic shift that I hope they will find hope in a possibility, that through research they can find a solution of their own. I never imagined that my mental health could be so influenced by my diet.

As they say (and which I never truly acknowledged): Your gut is a second brain.

Oh yeah that makes sense, thanks for the explanation. Similar to how the positive affects of meditation can be quite addicting, I imagine!

We humans sure do like getting addicted to stuff.

This situation seems comparable to Typescript in this analogy. It has taken several years, but I feel like it is beginning to take hold.

I don't think "remembering to eat" is really in line with anorexia, if that's the parallel you're trying to draw.

I know you're joking, but it's really not a concern at all. A healthy mind will seek food after a fasting period.

I'd add a caution of my own, which is not to gorge yourself during this period. Your body should be given time to adjust back to a normal diet. Though this isn't much of a concern for brief fasts under the intermittent fasting regimen.

Without commenting on the design, I just want to say that I appreciate how well the information on the home page is laid out.

You addressed all of my questions in order and in a compelling way. Very solid melding of marketing and education.

I don't think anyone hear hates CSS - it is a convenience in many ways. However when you think of views as a reflection of state, it can become very confusing and "impure".

Imagine you had a complex database of authors and books, and every time you read from it you want to receive the name of the user or the book in title case. You see that this behavior can be abstracted over, so you say "any time I pull a record from the database, no matter what table it comes from, capitalize its title". This is very convenient.

Well, no one would ever do this in a complex application, because you don't know what sort of implications it might have for future tables that are added - or what if you decide that short words in the title should be lowercase? Now you are making exceptions instead of declarations.

This is effectively what CSS does. it unnecessarily couple's visual state to other visual state, unless it is namespaced uniquely to a specific component.

Since no one has mentioned it yet, and it respectably isn't mentioned in the article, the author of this is the creator of the cycle.js (cycle.js.org).

It is a really cool way of looking at DOM state as a flow of: <interface> -> user interaction -> application reaction -> <interface>

The general idea being that the state of an application can be represented by a timeline of events throughout the lifetime of an application. Since it is entirely time and event driven/stateless, it gives way to some pretty cool "time travel" concepts.

The philosophy is this:

If you know how something begins, and you know the exact times at which anything happens to it, then you can assume its state at any given period in time.

I tend to use Chrome for its devtools, but I'd add WebRTC support to the list of things Firefox excels at

I'm a bit late, but I watched the announcement for this feature and they explicitly said that nothing was sent to that cloud to determine what song it was.

I remember this stood out to me, because that was a large concern of mine when I first heard about the feature. I respected that they went out of their way to make this point.

She said that it is based on machine learning, and something like a database of "audio samples". it uses the samples to figure it out, I guess.

The only other option is to government-mandate that, right? Not saying there aren't other unfortunate consequences of allowing a business owner to choose who they serve, but I'd say the larger problem is just that people can be... well... humans aren't great. However, putting the power in the hands of the law probably doesn't fix that.

Ultimately, why would you want to support someone who doesn't want you to be there?

Regardless, you've given me a new thing to think about. It's a complex issue for sure.

I think you are targeting an argument that doesn't really exist (though I could be wrong).

In my eyes, the heart of this argument is to avoid the whole idea of "me vs. you". This falls in line with the last part of your argument, but I think it's worth driving home. Learning to approach arguments with the mindset of "even if I'm right, the best outcome is that we both come out of this altercation with a mutual understanding", is much more important than "winning" an argument, and I don't believe that concept can be misconstrued.

As a simple example - maybe you're a woman with an attractive male friend. She knows that her intentions are pure, so why is it a big deal if you go out with him after work? Totally valid.

However, it's important to approach the conversation with an aspect of I understand how this could make my partner uncomfortable, so how do I communicate that understanding and alleviate any doubt instead of thinking well, if my partner just trusted me, then this wouldn't be a problem.

To that end, it's also important to identify these concerns early on so they aren't given the opportunity to fester as insecurities in the opposite party.

I'm curious what your issues look like. I've tested it on all I can (IE10+, Firefox latest, Chrome latest, Droid Chrome and iPhone Safari), and all seem to work quite well. The scrolling feature does get hairy on slower devices due to hardware limitations.

Wow, that's impressive. I'm most comfortable around 300-400 :p I really appreciate your feedback! And that's an honor to hear. I tried to make it very customizable, and do find that sometimes I prefer the text not move at all (achieved by unchecking 'Scroll Automatically'). I hope you'll continue to use it, and I'll continue to improve it :)

I've been a horribly slow reader my whole life, but more than that I'm just easily distracted. I find with Artiklur i can read at about 400wpm average for 20+ minutes with equal comprehension.

I really encourage you to give it a try (I think I've fixed the issues--just make sure auto scrolling is off if it doesn't work on your device). I'm not trying to sell anything here, I just took the time to clean it up so other people could try it too. I really love it.

Also, very interesting point about spreeder. I'm not sure it would feel the same, but i'd like to see it
