Likewise, in my adventures in power lifting and body building, I gained ~25-40 lbs on several occasions. The only way to do this reliably for me was to count calories.

Once you establish your basic metabolic rate, it simply works. Yes, it is a pain in the ass. Yes, it's a lot of effort and discipline.. but the results are predictable and reliable.

Yes to Air Fryer. I got the Cuisinart toaster over/air fryer. Calling it a "fryer" is a misnomer because it's really just a high-speed convection oven, but it makes french fries crispy with minimal oil, so I love it.

Many would argue that these agencies, vested with limited lawmaking ability by congress yet under the control of the executive, were always doomed to failure and it was just a question of time. I think it's a little more nuanced than that but those people kind of have a point. These agencies are subject to doing stupid things at the whim of the executive and having effective lawmaking authority behind them makes the damage worse when they do.

Anecdotal, but a few overweight people I've known have been terrible at estimating how much they eat.

Usually they'd skip over/forget very hefty 'snacks', or think a portion is a portion, while scooping up a small family's serving onto their plate.

The really sad thing is when they don't have a coping mechanism for sadness except for eating, which leads to them being sad over body image issues. It's a terribly vicious cycle.

You are simply wrong.

Calorie counting is impossible to do right and meaningful. All that experience you mention is simply a chance and has a tone of confouding variables.

Your internals are not fixed like a machine, parts of the system can be shut down (such as reproductive system) and parts of it can demand more energy at specific times (like immune system) and parts of it can appear (like cancer). There are also other factors like hyperinsulinemia which is more like logistics problem (some parts of body get bunch of energy while others are starving). With this kind of dynamic, relying on calorie counting is simply usless as all people are on various states on this system.

Sure, when you bring calories down to 0 you will certainly di of wasting but that has 0 practical value.
>For whole food, I agree that calories don't matter because we can trust our satiety signals. For junk food designed to be overeaten, I find that information quite useful.

One of the things I -really- appreciate with the newer labeling is that it shows both the calories per serving as well as total calories in the package. Giving both numbers helps people understand how much a binge really costs them.

Speaking of which, since you mentioned satiety signals...

Last night I wound up craving doritos like Stewie griffin eating pancakes. But some mindfulness helped me reach instead for some carrots, which quite frankly were a better crunch, and honestly I felt better after eating them.
Further in the article, this detail is mentioned (albeit without the reference to Fauci's own account):

> But following the CDC’s playbook on flu pandemics, Messonnier discouraged the public from using face masks, echoing similar advice from the WHO and US Surgeon General Jerome Adams. Since masks were thought to prevent the transmission of a virus from coughing, health officials feared a run on surgical masks would keep them from reaching vulnerable public health workers in hospitals, where most infectious patients driving a coronavirus outbreak would be located.

> In April, facing increasing pressure from public health experts, the CDC urged Americans to don cloth masks, citing the asymptomatic transmission risk first noted by Redfield and Fauci at the end of January. But the damage was done: Months later, the initial confusion over the utility of widespread use of face coverings has only made masks more of a political flashpoint.

Yep, I was consulting for a firm with an already sizeable infrastructure investment/dependence on AWS, and their architects were proud of their best practice usage of multiple AZs for redundancy, but weren't know that inter-AZ traffic cost also. So I imagine they're going to have fun trying to incorporate that into their infrastructure layout.

In my day job we saved $600 a day by cutting down on needless inter-AZ traffic.

Modified gravity is still being actively explored and I would argue taken very seriously but not in the context of dark matter, rather in the context of dark energy. So in a sense, yes, modified and dark matter combined are both possible in the same theory. However, at the moment, there is no real reason to suggest both dark matter and modified gravity are responsible for things like galaxy rotation curves because one of these works just as well without the other. In fact, many modified gravity theories apply "screening mechanisms" so they don't impact galaxy scales

Images of coronavirus forming tentacles in cells may help identify treatments
Looking at the "Weekly number of deaths" plot in the page you linked, I think what it says is, that the number of all-cause /excess/ deaths throughout april and may is more than 100 thousand people.

This is without looking at the actual cause of death, but given the corona situation and lack of other factors explaining such an unusual rise in mortality, I'd assume that most of those excess deaths are in fact somehow related to COVID.

Note also that the same mortality "signal" is much stronger in highly populated areas, e.g. New York City [1] and I don't see how this can be explained away as a "minimal number of excess deaths" or something "marginally more deadly" than the Flu.

So you do not understand that country leader makes a crime against his people. Puts relatives on different sides of war. That response to his actions programmed by schools and state owned media.

That Germans resolved this conflict and leave on. And Russians cling for their only perceived superiority as war machine like there is nothing else to be proud of. Like it is zero sum game - their own victory and noones else.

Yes to the air purifier. People living without them are insane. Also, buying and running an air purifier destroyed my marriage! My wife said she didn't like the sound of it. So I bough a new, super quite one. Then she said she didn't like the "frequency" not the volume of the machine. One day I came home and she had unplugged it and we got into an argument. I told her to please just "shut up" and that was when she attacked and literally tried to kill me. I got away but later she went to the police and told them she had been "assaulted". Nothing happened but she filed for divorce.

I still love the air purifier though!
I couldn’t disagree more, having used it for myself, and having coached hundreds doing it as a personal trainer.

An individual who employs reasonable practices well can thrive using this modality.

EDIT: IIFYM is “act, measure, adjust” using calorie counting and body weight / size measurements. I understand that there are triggers for some individuals in that statement. Doesn’t really change what needs to be done if body weight / size goals need to be addressed. And yes, there may be other manners of going about this, but those will mostly work around directly engaging in the anchors of IIFYM.
Love that! I guess it's a billion dollar question.

I can share my approach:

My startup is targeting early founders. We're building an app to help you stay in touch with users through a Segment.com integration. So here's how I cold email:

I get emails from founders on Indiehacker that have some revenue, are web based and make revenue through subscription. https://www.indiehackers.com/products lets you target really well.

Then, I use Clearbit to figure out if they're using Segment.

And if they are, I shoot them an email to briefly explain what we do and that they can give us a try and get set up in a few seconds because they are already using Segment.

It's the same email for everyone but already pretty personal due to the initial research.

Would love your thoughts on this!

Not OP but I was going to say the same thing - switching to BT headphones made me a very happy camper. I use Bowers & Wilkins PX, as they were the first USB-C headphones around. They have a great sound and no plastic, but if you don't care about that there's the typical Sony that everyone keeps praising (just looked it up, it's https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/headband-headphones/wh-10... ).
A pressure cooker. I originally bought it because I wanted to grow mushrooms and needed to sterilize the substrate, but ended up using it mostly for cooking. Lots of meals that usually take too much time are suddenly very reasonable to cook. I especially use beans and other legumes a lot more than I did before.

I believe it's more urgent to get rid of "serving" as measurement.I recently tried to build up a dash diet shopping list and was sent on a wild hunt for what is a serving exactly (turns out a serving is different depending on the food and measured in different cups and other imperial units).

Most dash diet books (or others) I read spend 200 pages out of 250 explaining basic useless nutrition factoids then get on a "sample week menus" that aren't practical at all if all you want to know is "how much pounds of this and that should I eat per day or per week ?".

I should open a blog about how to get that (easy recipes, easy shopping list), would be a nice journey.

The reduction in metabolic rate is also negligible ;-) We are talking about ~200 kcal and for many people not even that.

And yes there are exceptions. Hypothyroidism for example can yield a bigger reduction, but no more than 300-400 kcal. This is why people suffering from hypothyroidism should get treatment first.

Maintain an average 500 kcal deficit (from the baseline calculated for your sex, age, height and current weight) and you will lose weight. Conversely if you don't lose weight fact of the matter is you still eat too much.

And yes, counting calories might not be the best strategy for that 500 kcal daily deficit, but if what you're doing doesn't work, then you know why and can take measures.

I'm not sure that's necessarily true. It seems very plausible that there's a cultural component, where societies with healthier weights are more willing to ignore mild hunger.
Of course bodies and metabolic rates behave differently in different contexts. That’s not a new discovery, it has been known for a long time. The new research is just confirming what was known, and uncovering some of the specific mechanisms.

How much differently? What contexts? What is the distribution of different metabolic behaviors? What is the range of different rates? Those questions are far more important than whether, if you actually want to understand how calories behave.

The reasoning behind the phrase “a calorie is a calorie” is to summarize the primary metric one should watch when trying to lose weight. It doesn’t say that all calories are the same. You might have already noticed that the words are a tautology. A calorie literally is a calorie, it’s not saying that all calories are the same for all people in all contexts.

An important question to ask here is what action should someone take, armed with the knowledge that metabolic rates have some variability? Does that mean you should not use calories? Do we have a better metric? I’m not aware of one, so believing that variability means you shouldn’t use calories as a metric would be the wrong conclusion, IMO. Calories have always been imperfect estimates, but we have no better estimate. Eating & drinking is the only way we add mass to our bodies, so calories merely attempt to quantify that mass. Knowing that metabolic rates have variability means only that someone who believes their rate to be very different from the average should work to calibrate their measurements. That takes effort and is difficult to do on top of an already difficult activity of monitoring and/or restricting calories, so I wouldn’t recommend trying to calibrate calorie measurements to someone who’s struggling to track calories. The estimates we have aren’t that bad, and they will work for the average person.
I skimmed the contents, but I don't get any alternative to the standard calories counting.

It's the only way to quantify the intake without revolutionising the food industry packaging, or am I missing something?
