Typical diets these days are pretty bad. But few, if any, societies of anatomically modern humans have lived under conditions where they would almost always be in ketosis, so evolutionary history doesn't provide a reason to think that we are best adapted to that being our normal state.

> That being said, I think this adaption was more of an energy conservation mode for when food was scarce rather than our ancestors intentionally eating in a ketogenic compatible manner.

Yeah, that's the point I was trying to make. I am aware that humans have the capability of surviving on a ketogenic diet, but that doesn't support the argument I was replying to that following such a diet is what we evolved to do.

Keto diets have most definitely not been around long enough for anyone's bodies to evolve to follow them. That takes many thousands of years.

It's like humans have to learn how to extract features before they can make efficient use of straightforward supervised learning...

İ used to think that, but actually a Blockchain can also require something to be publically announced, which is quite powerful and is the basis of a lot of applications

Oh I agree with you, I just think linking to an example of a teenager who was late getting home and got into an accident when he had been smoking marijuana earlier as if it were supporting evidence makes our position look cheesy.

Isn't the marginal cost of a rider nearly zero? What kind of public transit are we talking about?
