Strikes me as an opposite of the Uncanny Valley.

I'm not sure how this math checks out.

1lb of fat is roughly 3500 calories. Given 500 calories a day of excess, that would lead to 1lb of fat gain per week. 52 pound average gain per year?

Bose's QC/QC Ultra lines continue to receive praise for comfort, durability, sound quality, noise cancellation, etc. They make pretty great consumer quality headphones.

Until quite recently, they were widely one of if not the most recommended wireless headphones. The new Sennheiser's that come with a USB-C dongle might have finally stepped past what Bose has been delivering, but at a higher price.

My only experience is BMW EV, but my i4 aggressively prioritizes regeneration over using the brakes. It even has an energy meter that shows negative/positive energy flow. The positive flow is blue until the actual brakes engage where it changes to black. And this is in two pedal mode, one pedal driving is even more aggressive about regen.

I would not doubt I use my breaks 1/20th of the amount that our X5 or Silverado use theirs.

68lbs over 9 months for me on Tirzepatide. No exercise (I should, but I'm traveling an absolute ton right so consistent exercise hasn't been prioritized).

I've had pretty good results on Tirz, definitely interested in how Reta will compare.

It still is odd that Jane has been illegally parking for 2 decades and the moment Joe does it, he's called out on it while she isn't.

IBM Mainframes have these capabilities. But yes, they're quite expensive.

What percentage of people reading HN do you think are actively contributing to WINE source? I'm going to go out on a limb and claim less than a tenth of a percent. And that, to me, is probably 10-100x too high of a threshold.

We hold you singularly responsible for the eventual failure of the Voodoo3/4/5 and Nvidia domination.

I am with you. I could also never see the hidden image things. Been trying for 40 years.

Some people get caught up in "maximization". Everything must be efficient, and use every moment of your time, and be commensurately compensated so as to profit maximally.

Your approach flies in the face of that, but you don't care! I happen to love that stance and applaud your ability to recognize the enjoyment/comfort in it. You enjoy what you do, but don't seek to attempt to make it more than it currently is.

Low carb/keto also had dramatic effects on frequency of migraines/headaches for myself. CPAP however, has been even more life changing in that regard for myself. From headaches 4-7 days of the week to fewer than 1 per week.

Some confounding variables on diet/weight loss/sleep quality. But I don't care, things are better and I'm happier for it.

I read it (the full 4 book series) as a teen prior to 2000. Very different experience! One of my favorite reads of all time.

Similarly, there's also Rudy Kurniawan, who was a wine counterfitter. Went to Federal prison, deported, and now is in demand to produce wine again in Asia because of how good he was at it.

Very similar named peak in Glacier National Park - Triple Peak Divide. Water can flow to the Pacific, Atlantic, or Arctic oceans.
