There are people who don't believe that. Every time I hear about it I tell them to get to a physics lab because they are a walking Nobel Prize.

Dieting isn't a magic bullet you fool, it's long, hard and worth it.
Caffine, Ephedrine (it's in congestion medicine like Brokaid in the US) and Yohmbine all have complementary effects on your metabolic rate and the last two have been shown to help speed fat loss while minimizing muscle loss.
If your condition is as you describe than I'm sorry for you but you're one of like 0.1% of the population (probably less). It's fine, you got dealt a shit hand but you aren't saying that being obese is a healthy lifestyle and the thing is other people are.
Everyone I've ever known or read about has gained weight by eating more and lost weight by eating less, again less and more vary from individual to individual but the fact that calories in = calories out for maintenance is a law of physics.
I don't care if someone is fat. What I care about is the loons saying that it's healthy and fine to be morbidly obese and they use stuff like this to back it up.
"Gut bacteria are the cause, I can do nothing"
"It's genetics"
No, it's calories in vs calories out. Maybe these bacteria make you want to eat more, maybe they somehow pull more energy out of food than normal gut flora somehow, in the end it doesn't really matter. Eat less, lose weight; eat more, gain weight; the definition of 'more' and 'less' are individual.
Probably because it made the subjects want to eat more. There's no magic bullet for gaining or losing weight, you either eat more or less that your body needs.
Great, another article for fat acceptance idiots to read the title of and declare it cake day.
> The volunteer lost 30.1 kg after 9 weeks, and 51.4 kg after 23 weeks, on a diet composed of whole grains, traditional Chinese medicinal foods and prebiotics (WTP diet, Supplementary Information; Supplementary Figure 1), with continued amelioration of hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia and hypertension until most metabolic parameters improved to normal ranges (Table 1). After 9 weeks on the WTP diet, this Enterobacter population in the volunteer's gut reduced to 1.8%, and became undetectable by the end of the 23-week trial, as shown in the clone library analysis (Table 1; Supplementary Figures 2 and 3).
I paid extra to not fly though the US. I encourage other North Americans who can to avoid it to do similarly.
Why fight it? I for one embrace our AI overlord, maybe we can finally have the philosopher king we need.
Section 11 seems to be broken (I popped it open in the inspector). Looks like it's not connecting the toggleBlack method up to the text.

PS: This is an awesome resource. I've always noticed the things that you talk about but I never knew why I noticed them.
Yeah there's even less reason to use old versions of FF than there is to use old versions of IE.
Well I was thinking ONE QR on the back of the menu that takes you to a search or something. Obviously not for everyone but I know that I'd appreciate it.
Well chocolate doesn't actually have that much to it (a regular chocolate bar is only like 250 calories) so it'd have to be more than two bars a day.
The main problem (as I'm told) with eating nothing but pure calorie sources supplemented with...uh, supplements is that the cost of the supplements is very high. Remember you need protein, carbs(I guess these wouldn't be in short supply on the candy bar diet) and fats plus micronutrients too or your body will start to break and those supplements aren't cheap.
I do know people that subsist mostly on protein shakes, rice and various supplement pills when they are doing hard cuts for body building competitions and while it's stressful on your body you aren't going to die from it.
>I lost 44 lbs on a disassociated diet, which is now over and my weight is stable by abstaining from sugar, as otherwise I only try to eat healthy, but I do not count calories or whatever.
It doesn't matter if you count it or not if you lost weight you were taking in less energy than you were expending.
>What works for you doesn't necessarily work for somebody else - and have you noticed how some people can eat whatever they want without getting fat? Freaking bastards.
Those people are a myth and it's been proven, they just consider "eating a lot" to be less than the amount needed to get them to gain weight. I mean I could eat 2000 calories of chocolate everyday and aside from the massive problems related to not getting enough vitamins/macros I'd still be losing weight.
Anyway congrats on the weight lost, we're all gunna make it bro.
To be fair a lot of people are REALLY bad a measuring and estimating both how much they eat and how much they exercise.
Can you expand on that? Calories in/out has lost me a net 30 lbs.
QR codes?
"For nutritional information check our website or scan this [qr code]"
This would be insanely helpful for those of us who are cutting/bulking and want to keep track of exact amounts. Even better would be listing macro-nutrients along with the calorie count.
>then I don't really see how thats any different than traditional marketing / product development.
Bingo
>And If I need to handle selection, edition, caching, cells with different layouts
I'm not going to touch the rest of your comments but mutability of presentation is really not the place to wage your battle against HTML/CSS/JS from. Dynamic presentation is really web tech's strong point.
>There is no profit in reaching the stars.
There's no profit in the singularity either.
No. Death Star or nothing.
From what I understand they don't even pay inventors, they hire lawyers to game the systems with ridiculously vague patents that will get through and then sue people who actually invent thing.
>In the ruby community, disliking someone's choice of science fiction reference is grounds for a rewrite.
Hmm, perhaps I should check Ruby out after all...
Porn is a multi-tens of billion dollar business, to think they don't have people in government is silly.
QR has error correction and stuff built in, OCR does not.
In the original thread I made the joke that they don't really need writers, just a bot that reads popular HN blogspam all day.
Sad thing is it's true.
What did forecast 2010 look like from 1990?
conspiracy theory
What if this is the writers of that new Silicon Valley comedy show soliciting ideas for their characters w/o having to pay writers!?
Good argument for customizing your QR code a little bit. Likely anyone who's going to do this will just print off a big pile of black and white perfect squares. If you design your media so that looks weird to people that's a single passive thing that will help protect your customers.
