And I can very much relate to not being able to stop once I start eating something. I find this especially hard with processed/refined carbs, which I believe play some tricks on our hunger related hormones so our body can't detect when we've had enough food. If I stick to mostly more protein/fat and unprocessed carbs I find it much easier to control how much I eat.
It's interesting to hear your success with an extended fast. I haven't ventured beyond the 16:8 but am intrigued to experiment with something a bit longer this year.
Has anybody ever used stack ranking to power book recommendations? Instead of rating books on a scale of 1-5 star you instead rate each book relative to every other book you’ve ever read.
Some other factors that I think could be used to create a high quality book recommendation engine on top of stack ranking: number of books read (the top 5 books from someone who has read 200+ books is a stronger signal than someone who has read 10 books) and release date (give extra weight to older books to reduce recency bias).
What do you think? Am I onto something or just spewing some sat night nonsense?
