My brother in Christ, why is sucrose bad for your liver? Because it is metabolized into glucose and… Fructose
The metabolism of sucrose into glucose and fructose happens in the small intestines. Fructose enters the bloodstream and is metabolized by the liver.
What kind of sugar? High fructose corn syrup or sugar?
HFCS is metabolized in the liver making it far more damaging to the body. And soda that uses real sugar typically has a lower sugar content. Soda with real sugar also imparts a feeling of fullness, typically resulting in people drinking less.
I mean, I don’t think it’s an easy thing to fix. How do you eliminate bias in the training data without eliminating a substantial percentage of your training data. Which would significantly hinder performance.
Then you can get accelerated in the thing you designed.
I have a middle income home with these windows. I prefer regular windows that go up and down.
You can have screens. I don’t understand why everyone thinks these windows don’t have screens
American with these windows. I have screens. I also don’t like them very much.
I’m in the US and have these windows. They have screens. They’re also not that special. I prefer the regular windows
I need to fly from NJ to California in a few months. Economy tickets are around $275. I’d like a bit of extra legroom for the long flight, so I check out Economy plus. Economy plus tickets are $800. What in the actual fuck is this? It’s not first class. I get no added benefits other than a few inches of extra leg room.
I honestly work at a company that would fit most ideals for the average anti-work/work-reform subscriber.
Unlimited PTO, with minimum PTO usage requirements. Free medical. They pay for my gym membership. They pay for tampons for my household. Full time remote. I hold equity in the company. Annual performance bonuses. And they disclose the financials of just about everything to employees. It’s pretty wild
Nah, we document every fuck up, and sit him down for a come to Jesus moment
My time management is great. I do my job and the job of the person underneath me, because we can’t find anyone worth a damn.
I was at Home Depot trying to get a gas powered hedge trimmer. I have almost an acre of property, and there are tons and tons of bushes around the house.
Salesman says I should buy electric. I tell him yes, but I’d have to buy another battery or two just so I can do all the work in one day. Which makes it significantly more expensive than gas.
“Ah that’s the thing. You just replace everything with electric, and you get a battery with each device!”
Okay, so, what if I want to cut the grass, do the edging, and trim the hedges in one day? I understand the need to switch to electric and reduce emissions. But the number of towns banning gas powered lawn care equipment is just ignoring the obvious. Electric is simply not practical for anyone with a remotely large property.
I had a car with push button start and a CVT. After putting the first 50 miles on the car, the brake light switch died. Nissan, in their ultimate wisdom, used the brake light switch to tell the computer if you are pressing the brake when starting the car. Well, no brake light switch, no starting the engine. Had to get it towed back to the dealership to get fixed.
I now have a real key and a manual transmission.
If you can make a dynamo, you can make a motor. Now, you aren’t about to create Tesla. But there’s plenty of things back in the day that could benefit from being motorized.
Really long story, made short: Reddit API was free. They decided to charge an insane amount of money for it, and gave developers almost no notice of the changes. Most 3rd party apps were forced to shut down as a result. This meant apps for people who need accessibility features, apps that moderators depended on, etc. Reddit’s official app is a dumpster fire and offered very few much needed features.
People protested. Reddit removed moderators that protested. Many users left in response. At least one major 3rd party app switched to supporting Lemmy. A lot of users followed.
Oh absolutely. It’s good to have at least one beer you can always come back to. For me that’s been the Dogfish Head Sea Quench Ale
Love Cascade. Haven’t been there, but I buy their beer out here in NJ.
I got started on sours because of them
It’s true. Especially on the east coast.
I was down in Austin not long ago. Went to Jester King. Wow, cool brewery, and really good sours
My security deposit was returned to me with interest added.
I was told not to paint anything because they do that whenever someone leaves as standard practice.
Sometimes apartments aren’t bad.
