I've no idea about the fasting stuff. Just thought its important to make clear this particular study is all about doing stuff to cells or lumps of cells in dishes (again sorry if I missed more involved model system in…
Well, to be precise- this study shows no evidence of a fasting effect. they show if you starve cells in a dish in a way that might mimic what happens when you fast, you can kill the cells. I didn't see any mention of…
this isn't how chemotherapy works. traditional chemo targets rapidly dividing cells in the body: cancer, hair/skin, intestinal lining cells. That's why you get those side-effects.
+1! New go-to for suggesting there's evidence you're about to have a bad time.

I wonder at how this would vary across industries and also company sizes. I'm surprised the study had positive results at a relatively large firm. I think its easy to imagine working-from-home gains in small firms and…
I'm currently using Asana for task management. I guess the only upside is that I can share tasks with my wife, but its clearly not really meant for just single person management. Has anyone tried both taskwarrior and…
beware survivor bias on this thread.
The proteins that organize DNA, called histones, can be chemically modified in a variety of ways. The modifications have the effect of turning on/off stretches of the DNA simply by modifying its physical structure (the…
Absolutely agree with your point. I don't think the practice in any industry (trucking, healthcare or distribution centers) is okay but I'm simply pointing out its not a unique problem.
Sure, I can't tell you about white collar folks pissing in bottles, I may have exaggerated there. But in healthcare (for nurses, therapists, aides) its quite prevalent that people don't drink/eat enough at work nor do…
Long-haul truckers have been doing this for decades for the same reason-- they don't have time to pull over and use the restroom-- and no one is upset about that. I'm sure there are many industries, white and blue…
Outside of the firms owned/operated by the real clever boys, I wouldn't be surprised if this describes the vast majority of "AI" efforts unfolding at dozens/hundreds/thousands of companies. Everybody is getting on the…
The thing you have to figure out, is that our brains and consciousness are just a big collection of "thoughtless fuzzy pattern recognizers". There's nothing magic beyond that.
